Cultivate, Sign In, And Be Rewarded Handsomely

Chapter 37: Former Teacher!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the eyes of the Wang Clan Old Ancestor, the Li Family of the Northern Kingdom did not have any foundation. They only had one Martial Saint. They even personally went to the Wind Thunder Sect to check the traces left behind.

There were about eight Martial Saints from the seven great clans. Even if they did not join forces, they could still hold Li Yuanqing back with just the two Martial Saints from the Wang clan. After all, the person in front of them looked so young and his cultivation level was about the same as theirs. He would definitely lose if he fought against two of them.

They wanted to see what other trump cards the royal family of the Northern Kingdom had to deal with the seven great families after they dealt with Li Yuanqing.

This large territory originally belonged to the Wang Clan, and even the Zhao Clan was their puppet. As for the Han and Fan Clans, their matriarchs were the Wang Clan’s ladies.

Those ladies had been carefully nurtured since they were young, making them loyal to the Wang Clan. Therefore, after these ladies became the matriarchs of those aristocratic families, they would all side with the Wang Clan from the bottom of their hearts. Furthermore, their children would naturally rely on the Wang Clan’s support to become the next generation’s Patriarch.

The Wang Clan would become the final beneficiary.

With a huge amount of resources, the Wang Clan could produce one or two Martial Saints. With three or four Martial Saints from the Wang Clan’s direct line of descent, the new country would definitely be more stable. Because the strong would always be respected. Without the support of a powerhouse and a strong foundation, the Northern Kingdom was destined to fail.

The Wang Clan’s scheme was very good. They had been painstakingly preparing for this plan for hundreds of years and had even found a chance to defy the decree of the Crown Princess of the Northern Kingdom.

It was a pity that they had met Li Yuanqing who possessed the Saint Extermination Stone. Hence, they were destined to fail.

When the two Old Ancestors of the Wang clan attacked together, they were horrified to discover that they could no longer use their cultivation after being suppressed by the Saint Extermination Stone. Furthermore, they looked like ordinary martial artists now.

The fear was indescribable.

In the blink of an eye, the two Old Ancestors of the Wang clan, who were controlled by the Saint Extermination Stone, were easily killed by Li Yuanqing. The Saint Extermination Stone’s aura seemed to be weaker, and there was already a clear difference from when it first killed the Zhao clan’s Old Ancestor.

But Li Yuanqing did not take it to heart.

He had stayed in the Wang Clan for quite a long time because other than the two Old Ancestors, there were four peak ninth-grade experts, who are the Wang Clan’s patriarch and three elders.

Li Yuanqing followed the aura and looked over. Even though these peak ninth-grade martial artists were strong, they were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered before Li Yuanqing, unable to fight back at all.

Not only were they unable to fight back, the cautious Li Yuanqing did not let them make a single sound.

After that, the Wang Clan still had a dozen or so eighth-grade martial artists. It had to be said that the Wang clan’s foundation was really very strong. It was even much stronger than the royal family of the Northern Kingdom. A thousand-year-old clan was indeed not to be underestimated.

Since Li Yuanqing was here, he did not stay idle either. He killed all the eighth-grade martial artists very quickly.

He moved quickly even though it was raining outside. The sky was already dark, and the entire Wang clan’s old mansion was quiet at the moment. No one was walking around, so Li Yuanqing was exceptionally relaxed when he was killing these people.

There were still over thirty over seventh-grade martial artists from the Wang clan. Li Yuanqing thought for a moment and felt that it was still early, so he continued.

This time, he planned to wipe out the Wang clan’s thousand-year-old heritage in one night. That was why the Wang clan was so arrogant. They wanted to support a new Emperor and establish a regime that belonged to the Wang clan. They did not even consider the bloodbath or the safety of the citizens of the Northern Kingdom. There was nothing Li Yuanqing could be merciful about.

If he were to be soft-hearted now, it would be a fatal blow to the Northern Kingdom. Trees that grew too big in the courtyard would block the light of their owners. Furthermore, the Wang clan wasn’t a family that was loyal to their country and empathized with the common people.

Since they dared to rebel, they had to be prepared to have their entire family killed. Li Yuanqing was merely killing some hidden dangers along the way.

Therefore, he didn’t have any psychological burden. It would be better for him to work harder today than when the people of the aristocratic clans joined forces to rebel in the future and attack the cities and plunder the land, causing millions of citizens of the Northern Kingdom to fall into the chaos of war.

At that time, more than a million people would die. Compared to the hundreds of people from the Wang Clan who were killed by him, it was obvious who was more important.

It was just that when Li Yuanqing was killing the Wang clan’s seventh-grade martial artists, he encountered a little trouble. He had walked into a very remote courtyard. The courtyard was very dilapidated and there were weeds everywhere. This was somewhat different from the luxurious residence where he had started killing those seventh-grade martial artists.

There was the sound of coughing and the strong smell of medicine in the courtyard. Someone was talking.

“Just drink a bit of medicine. The Wang clan doesn’t want to see me, but I am still a seventh-grade martial artist. They are still willing to give me this bit of medicine, so don’t be so reluctant…”

The person who spoke had a slightly aged voice. That person had his back facing the door and was currently serving a woman with a worried expression to drink medicine.

The woman kept coughing and sighing. “Our Ling’er will be sent to the patriarch of the Zhi clan for a marriage alliance. The patriarch of the Zhi clan is older than you this year, and his son is older than Ling’er. What a pitiful child. If you have the mood to brew medicine for me, why don’t you go beg the Old Ancestor and ask him to take pity on our Ling’er? It’s all your fault. You weren’t able to complete your mission at the Li clan that year, so you were punished like this…”

The woman on the bed could not stop crying. As she cried, she scolded her husband for being useless. While her husband allowed her to scold him, he kept his head lowered and fed her medicine.

Li Yuanqing looked at the hunched back of the old man, then at his shabby little courtyard. It was so remote that there was not even a servant to serve them. He could not help but stop in his tracks and reveal himself.

He even sighs, only to see the old man frowning as he places the medicine on the table. He then walked out of the courtyard and looked at Li Yuanqing in astonishment.

“Your Highness, I- I’m not dreaming, am I? Greetings, Your Highness…” After recovering from his shock, the old man knelt down towards Li Yuanqing without hesitation. This man was Wang Xian, the teacher that the royal family had hired for Li Yuanqing.

Back then, the Wang clan’s plan was for Wang Xian to assist Li Yuanqing to be the Emperor. Wang Xian would then be the Emperor’s teacher and they would use Wang Xian to influence Li Yuanqing and interfere with the politics of the Northern Kingdom.

After Li Yuanqing was crippled and sent to the Wilderness, Wang Xian returned to the Wang clan. He fell from his position of being revered in the past. Although he was also a seventh-grade martial artist, he was not liked by the Old Ancestor since he had not completed his mission. Even his wife and daughter were burdened by him.

Looking at Wang Xian, who was kneeling on the ground, Li Yuanqing’s heart was in turmoil. In the past, he could not see through Wang Xian and did not know that Wang Xian was sent by the Wang clan. He thought that the Wang family supported the royal family and trusted him greatly.

He was always willing to discuss important matters with Wang Xian. There was even a time when he found out that Wang Xian had given birth to his only daughter, Wang Ling. He had even rewarded her with many valuable items.

But this time, he came to take the Wang clan’s expert’s life. And Wang Xian was a seventh-grade martial artist!
