"I have my own plans."

"Besides, achieving such results this time was purely accidental."

"Truth be told, without you two Prodigies, I'd likely just be making a fool of myself there; it's better not to go at all."

Wang Gou faced Wang Jiayao's inquiry.

He merely smiled gently.

However, such an excuse clearly couldn't convince Wang Jiayao.

Even Wang Changfeng walked over towards them.

His brows were furrowed tightly.

"Nonsense! If you don't go, how can you face..."

Wang Changfeng paused when he reached the last sentence.

He then fell silent.

Whether or not to go is someone else's choice.

He was merely an insignificant figure within the clan.

He had no qualifications to point fingers at people from the main branch.

Moreover, this wasn't about the lineage.

It was more likely that Wang Gou's strength was far superior to his own.

Wang Gou felt quite helpless about this.

He himself was naturally quite cautious.

His own values were related to this.

There was no harm in relaxing a bit within his own home.

Even within the Secret Realm.

He was already the strongest.

There was no need to worry too much about anything.

But if he went to the highly anticipated Heavenly Pride War.

And accidentally caught the eye of some Holy Land or Ancient Dynasty.

Then he wouldn't be able to do as he pleased like he did now.

Perhaps even while staying within a faction, he would be gossiped about.

Or perhaps, on an unlucky day, he might be dealt with by some big shot with a terrifying background, and lose his life.

He wouldn't do such a losing business.

Compared to unknown risks, it was better to stay safely by Wang Dong's side.

Slowly improving himself was the most steady way to level up.

With things having reached this point.

Although Wang Jiayao and Wang Changfeng didn't quite understand.

They didn't make further demands.

One could only say that everyone has their own aspirations, and everyone has their own destiny.

Before long.

Footsteps sounded from afar.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived before them.

Wu Yujia smiled calmly and said.

"Will the three Prodigies selected from the Wang Family please come with me."

"Stay in the Imperial Capital for one day; tomorrow, my Imperial Father will escort you to the Holy City to participate in the Heavenly Pride War."

Wang Gou shook his head.

"Just take my younger clan brother and sister; I have already spoken to the King, and since my skills are inferior this time, I will not be going to the Heavenly Pride War."

"Your skills are inferior?"

Wu Yujia widened her eyes upon hearing this.

This time, the number one person in the Secret Realm.

Actually said that his skills were inferior.

This sounded somewhat strange to anyone.

She immediately looked at Wang Changfeng and the other, as if wondering if this was a joke.

Wang Changfeng and the other shook their heads gently.

Wu Yujia then let the matter rest.

"Very well, since you have already notified the Imperial Father, it will suffice for the two Prodigies to participate."

"Thank you for your trouble."

Wang Changfeng and Wang Jiayao nodded.

After bidding farewell to Wang Gou, they turned and left with Wu Yujia.

After they left.

Wang Gou smiled gently.

It was most reassuring when he was alone.

Although being with others wouldn't have any negative impact.

To some extent, it was a guarantee for his safety.

However, Wang Gou was different from others.

He had too many secrets of his own.

He was naturally cautious and preferred walking alone.

Now that the two of them had left.

He waved at the sky.

The Mountain Eagle mount that belonged to him flapped its wings and flew down.

It landed slowly in front of him.

Wang Gou flipped over and sat on the giant eagle.

He patted its neck.

"Let's go! Going home."

Wang Gou said while.

He took a flask of wine from his Storage Pouch and started drinking.

The Mountain Eagle's intelligence was not low.

Upon hearing the order, it let out a strange cry, flapped its wings, and soared up.

It disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Inside the Wang Family's ancestral grounds.

A middle-aged man was weeping.

The mud on his body hadn't been wiped off, and he looked extremely disheveled.

His name was Wang Gaosheng.

That was a branch that had split off decades ago under Wang Dong's arrangement.

They were arranged to enter the neighboring Dynasty.

Like a cunning rabbit with three burrows, they were set up in advance to seek development.

All along, although they had developed very modestly, there hadn't been any major issues.

However, within these past three days.

Something had happened in the neighboring Dynasty, King David.

Being a small Family, they were naturally affected by the ripples.

Financial tightening meant the property and Family business they had built up over the years were being encroached upon one by one.

If there was no support, that branch might be wiped out.

Forced by necessity, he, the Family head, was compelled to come out and seek help.

However, only after arriving at Wutan City.

And going to the main Family did he discover.

The main Family wasn't developing very well either.

Had they fallen on hard times?

Just as this thought arose in his heart, someone suddenly told him.

The Wang Family left here were just some old, weak, sick, and disabled people.

The real main Family had long since relocated to the Blessed Land where the Qingxuan Sect was originally located.

Under urgent circumstances.

He immediately came here.

To seek assistance.

Grand Elder Wang Qingyun.

Was sitting in the main hall.

His brows were deeply furrowed.

He had just told his Clan Chief Wang Dong about this matter.

A moment later.

Inside the main hall.

A figure slowly emerged.

"What is the matter?"

Wang Dong spoke indifferently.

Finally, his eyes turned to see Wang Gaosheng sitting there.

"It's you?"

Wang Dong was somewhat surprised.

In his memory, the person before him seemed to be someone he had left as a backup plan back then.

Why would he appear here now?

Could it be that something happened over there?

Wang Dong's eyes instantly turned sharp.

"What exactly happened?"

Wang Gaosheng immediately recounted the matter once more.

The next moment.

A loud noise suddenly erupted inside the hall.

The sandalwood and gold-plated table was shattered by a single palm strike from Wang Dong.

"How dare they!"

Wang Dong shouted coldly.

He didn't expect such a thing to have happened in the King David Dynasty.

Just now, according to Wang Gaosheng's account.

A year ago, a youth was born to the Wang Family branch in King David.

Born with Double Pupils, and with the manifestation of Yin and Yang Qi.

Before they could even be overjoyed.

Others discovered such an anomaly.

And immediately wanted to take the youth away.

Gouging out eyes for transplantation; the methods were truly bloody.

The Wang Family members resisted with their lives.

But unfortunately, their strength was weak.

Wang Gaosheng was also, under the protection of his clansmen.

Able to survive against all odds and come to the main Family to seek help.

"What did you call them just now? The Fifth Family?"

Wang Dong turned around and snorted coldly.

"Reporting to the Clan Chief, that is indeed the name; they are known as the number one Family in the territory and cover the sky with one hand within the King David Dynasty."

"Even the Imperial Family has to be respectful."

"It is rumored that they have an Old Ancestor in the Dongtian Realm."

Wang Gaosheng recounted everything in detail.

At the same time, he whispered a reminder.

"Heh? What do you mean by this? You want me to avoid their edge!"
