“How could a saint appear?” The young man immediately reacted and secretly transmitted his voice.
“Have you forgotten how the Spirit Race was destroyed?”
The white-robed young man said meaningfully and the other young man immediately understood.
It was rumored that when Su Chen annihilated the Spirit Race, a saint king had intervened. The rumor was that the saint king had even addressed Su Chen as Master. When people first heard the news, many were unwilling to believe it. After all, the disparity between the two was too vast! Su Chen was only at the Quasi-Saint Realm! What kind of existence was a saint king? In any holy land or imperial clan, a saint king could have been venerated as an ancestor. No matter how one looked at it, a saint king did not seem like someone who would become Su Chen’s servant. But now, looking at how solemn the Wang family was, it was estimated that this matter was likely true. Others might make mistakes, but as an imperial clan, the Wang family had its own sources of information. They would definitely not make any errors.
“Inconceivable! Truly inconceivable!” the other young man muttered in shock. His gaze shifted and finally landed on Wang Wenxuan, who was at the front, stealing a glance at him. After that, he looked toward an unnoticeable corner beside Wang Wenxuan.

“Eh?” The young man let out a soft surprised sound. A trace of disdain appeared unwittingly in the corner of his eyes, slightly displeased as he said, “Why is he here?”
At the end of his line of sight was a thin, pale-faced young man who appeared to be just over twenty. His strength was quite eye-catching among the Wang family’s younger generation, not because he was too strong, but because he was too weak. The Wangs were an imperial clan, after all. Even branch disciples had outstanding aptitude, as descendants of a great emperor. The stronger a cultivator, the harder it was to produce offspring – this was an ironclad rule! However, once they had descendants, their talents were generally not lacking.
As of today, the descendants of the Wang family had spanned dozens to hundreds of generations from Great Emperor Wang Teng, but they still carried traces of the great emperor’s noble bloodline. Even if their aptitude was slightly inferior, they surpassed the offspring of common people. But this pale-faced youth was an exception. As the current family head’s son, he was still only at the third level of the Qi Sea Realm, despite being over twenty! This was rather unreasonable. After all, even ordinary branch members received resources comparable to inner sect disciples of holy lands. Let alone the family head’s son – his monthly share was almost on par with the direct disciples of holy lands!
With such abundant resources invested in him, at his age, his mere Qi Sea Realm cultivation would be a laughing stock. Some might even mistakenly take it as a sign of the Wang family’s decline.
“Wang Kun?” The white-robed youth also looked surprised. Glancing at the young man, he agreed, “Brother Su Chen has come all this way to our Wang family. What a great honor this is! Indeed, not just any rubbish could be allowed near!”
Su Chen had a well-known reputation, as the number one of his generation. His arrival was a grand occasion for the Wang family’s youths. Perhaps he even wanted a friendly spar with them, though it would just be guidance from Su Chen while they observed. If Su Chen saw their imperial clan had someone at only the Qi Sea Realm at over twenty years old, he might not say anything overtly. But word getting out would still disgrace the entire Wang family!
“Humph! He’s just an illegitimate child born to a maid! 1’11 chase him away!” The white-robed youth snorted and stepped forward, about to head over.
But before he could move, someone spoke up, “What are you doing here?” The cold, merciless words spread through the Wang family’s young generation.
The speaker was none other than the Wang family’s pride and joy, Wang Wenxuan! Clothed in dark gold robes and crowned with jade, he was like a heavenly king traversing the void. His aura was vast and unfathomable, with an invincible bearing circulating around him.
He cast a sidelong glance at Wang Kun and said indifferently, “Haven’t you embarrassed yourself enough?”
“I…” Wang Kun’s slender figure was already awkward. Wang Wenxuan’s rebuke left him at a complete loss. Faced with countless mocking and ridiculing gazes, he wished he could find a hole in the ground to hide in.
In name, he was the patriarch’s son, but in truth, everyone in the Wang family knew the patriarch did not value him at all. After all, his mother was just a maidservant. If his aptitude was better, perhaps the patriarch would pay him some heed. But his aptitude was far too lacking! Not just in the Wang family – even across the East Barrens, he ranked among the bottom.
Thus, he had been sneered at and taunted by others since childhood. Today, hearing the most outstanding talent of the younger generation was visiting the Wang family, he impulsively came to see for himself what this prodigy named Shi Chen was like. Yet he never expected to be mercilessly rejected by his nominal elder brother as soon as he arrived.

“Over twenty years just to reach the Qi Sea Realm. If it were me, I’d have killed myself with a slab of tofu already.”
“Rightfully so…”
“He’s really smearing Great Emperor Wang Teng’s name! brother Su Chen is the number one of his generation, with the potential to become an emperor. Did he think any stray dog could come gawk at Brother Su Chen?”
“This kind of person lives only to tarnish the Wang family’s reputation!”
Hearing the whispers around him, Wang Kun sank into numbness. He smiled bitterly, clenching his fists tightly before letting his hands go limp again.
“Why are you still not scramming?” Wang Wenxuan shouted coldly once more. This time, he laced it with a trace of spiritual power. His voice boomed like thunder, echoing between heaven and earth. The God Altar Realm and Spirit Sea Realm cultivators present may not have felt anything, but to Wang Kun, it was like a tribulation crashing down. His face turned white and he trembled violently, coughing up a mouthful of blood. His already pale complexion became even more ashen.
He did not dare show any anger, only stiffly raising his sleeve to wipe the corner of his mouth before slowly turning to leave. He was just an illegitimate son born of a maidservant! Wang Wenxuan was different – his mother was a Holy Maiden of a holy land. Her marriage to the patriarch represented an alliance between two great powers. It could be said that not only the Wang family stood behind Wang Wenxuan, but an entire holy land! Even if he killed Wang Kun, no one in the Wang family could find fault..
