Changes in the Wang Family

The Wang Family!

After the Old Ancestor left, the entire upper echelon of the Wang Family set up a grand banquet, quietly waiting for the Old Ancestor to return triumphantly.

At the banquet, everyone was clinking cups and having a lively time!

"From today onwards, it will be the time for our Wang Family to soar."

An Elder drank three cups in a row, speaking with great satisfaction.

"To the Wang Family, to the Old Ancestor!"

Everyone's emotions were at a climax.

Evidently, in their eyes, with the Old Ancestor making a move, the Overlord Body Inheritance would surely be as easy as picking something out of a pocket.

How could the small Nangong Family possibly block the might of a Tianxuan Realm expert?

Wang Dong, the Patriarch of the Wang Family, sat at the head of the table.

He was clearly in a very good mood.

He drained the wine in his cup, laughing loudly: "If not for those two old geezers, the Patriarchs of the Chen and Li Families, interfering, the Overlord Body Inheritance would have long been in my grasp. Why would I need to trouble the Old Ancestor to act?"

"However, with the Old Ancestor's strength, once his Tianxuan Realm Domain is opened, even if a huge commotion is made, the outside world probably won't receive any information."

"By the time people react, the Nangong Family would probably have already been wiped out, and the Overlord Body Inheritance would have become an item in our Wang Family's possession."

"As long as we act discreetly, who would know that the Overlord Body Inheritance is in our Wang Family's hands?"

"At that time, as long as the Overlord Body Legacy holder grows up, it will be the time for our Wang Family to dominate a region and reach its Peak."

"Hoo…"

Everyone was filled with excitement and surging emotions by the blueprint Wang Dong described.

With the Wang Family's current strength, it was enough to dominate one side.

But to dominate an entire region was nothing short of a fantasy.

And now, an opportunity to reach the Peak and stand at the top of the continent was before them, how could they remain calm?

Just as everyone was envisioning a beautiful future,

There was a tremor in the Void Realm.

It was Wang Che, the Old Ancestor of the Wang Family, returning from the Nangong Family!

However, Wang Che was in a very miserable state at this moment.

His entire chest was directly pierced through.

Blood stained his whole body, making him look like a man of blood.

That one finger from the Wooden Puppet directly annihilated most of his life force.

It was only because Tianxuan Realm experts possessed extremely tenacious vitality; had it been an ordinary person, they would have likely died on the spot.

That being said, Wang Che's current state was also extremely weak.

His life force was like a candle in the wind, with the risk of death and soul destruction at any moment.

"Old... Old Ancestor!"

Upon seeing this, everyone, led by Wang Dong, changed their expressions drastically.

The previously lively atmosphere instantly became deathly silent, and everyone looked at their Old Ancestor in disbelief.

This was a Tianxuan Realm expert!

Didn't he go to retrieve the Overlord Body Legacy from the Nangong Family?

How did he end up in such a state?

Wang Dong quickly stepped forward to help his Old Ancestor.

At the same time, he ordered: "Quick, go to the treasure vault and search for great medicines to sustain the Old Ancestor's life!"

The Old Ancestor was the Wang Family's stabilizing force, its pillar of support.

Wang Dong couldn't imagine how his Wang Family would establish itself in Nameless City in the future once the Old Ancestor met with misfortune.

"No... no need to go!"

Wang Che, the Old Ancestor of the Wang Family, coughed up large mouthfuls of blood.

He knew his own condition.

His life force was completely dissipated, his Origin completely destroyed; he was merely at the brink of death now.

In such a state, even Imperial-grade great medicines would be of no help.

He gripped Wang Dong's arm tightly with one hand.

"The Nangong Family, it possesses a great terror!"

"In the future, do not... do not provoke them!"

These words clearly became Wang Che's last dying words left in the world.

As these words were uttered, his hands weakly slumped down.

"Old Ancestor!"

The high-ranking members of the Wang Family were filled with grief and despair, and an immense sense of incomprehension and boundless terror arose in their hearts.

In their minds, the Nangong Family, although possessing decent strength, was merely a second-rate Family.

What kind of trump card did the other party hide?

Even their Old Ancestor suffered a cruel fate!

"Patriarch, what should we do now!"

An Elder asked in panic.

They had originally thought that with the Old Ancestor's intervention, it would surely be the time for the Wang Family's glorious rise, who could have imagined that it would instead be the day darkness descended?

With the Old Ancestor's death, they felt as if the sky had fallen.

At this moment, Wang Dong, the Patriarch of the Wang Family, was also in a state of utter confusion.

But he still pulled himself together immediately, fulfilled his duties as Patriarch, and issued a series of commands.

"Pass on my order: the matter of the Old Ancestor's demise must absolutely not be spread. Whoever dares to leak even a shred of information will be treated as a traitor to the Family and subjected to extreme punishment."

"From today onwards, the Wang Family will close its doors, activate the Family-protecting Great Array, and no one is allowed to enter or exit without my command."

...

Tonight, for the Wang Family, was destined to be a sleepless night.

Wang Che's demise left them both shocked and terrified.

They even went so far as to activate the Family-protecting Great Array.

They were only worried that the Nangong Family would come to settle scores with them.

If this matter were to have happened a day ago, no one would have imagined that the small Nangong Family could force the Wang Family to such a degree.

It is just as the saying goes, 'thirty years to the east of the river, thirty years to the west of the river,' it is largely true.

...

After one night, the once bustling Wang Family became desolate.

It was as if it had suddenly disappeared without a trace.

This indeed surprised passersby nearby.

With the Wang Family's prestige, in the past, if even a dog's bark was a bit too loud, someone would surely come out immediately to teach it a lesson.

It was truly the first time they had seen something like this, with the main gate tightly shut and all the people of the entire Wang Family gone.

This sparked the curiosity of some people, who speculated about what kind of change had occurred in the Wang Family.

And this matter soon reached the ears of the Chen Family and the Li Family, who were also two of the three major first-rate Families in Nameless City.

The Chen Family!

"What is this Wang Family doing?"

Chen Ping, the Patriarch of the Chen Family, frowned and spoke in a deep voice.

The three major first-rate Families of Nameless City had dominated this area for a long time.

They had clearly formed a tripartite relationship.

Any slight disturbance in one Family would receive extra attention from the other two.

Clearly, this perplexing behavior from the Wang Family left the Chen Family somewhat baffled.

"Patriarch, the so-called Wang Family is just a bunch of brainless boors."

"In my opinion, they are merely trying to create a mystery; in reality, they are probably secretly discussing and plotting for the Overlord Body Inheritance."

In the main hall, many high-ranking members of the Wang Family gathered, and an Elder said in a deep voice.

"That's right!"

These words drew agreement from everyone.

"Our current focus should be on the Nangong Family."

"How to obtain the Overlord Body Legacy is the most pressing matter."

"As for the Wang Family, there's no need to pay too much attention!"

Upon hearing this, although Chen Ping had many doubts in his heart, he forcibly suppressed them.

There was one thing everyone said that made sense.

The most urgent task now was how to secretly plot to acquire the Nangong Family's Legacy.

Everything else could be set aside.

The Wang Family needed to be guarded against, but there was no need to waste too much effort.

On the other hand, the Li Family!

Like the Chen Family, they were somewhat confused by the Wang Family's actions.

But Li Yianan, the Patriarch of the Li Family, made a different decision from the Chen Family.

That was to personally visit with people, wanting to investigate what kind of change had occurred in the Wang Family!
