Protect Our Chief
Chapter 828 - 17: I Am Your Grand Aunt, Wang Liyao
In terms of seniority, Wang Anan is actually considered to be in the generation of Wang Liyao’s grandchildren.
This news directly infuriated Wang Anan. The means of that Great Celestial Pride Wang Liyao were too despicable to use such a way to hinder his morale. Such a dignified Great Celestial Pride, how could she stoop so low?
However, with one hype after another, the heat of the battle between Wang Anan and Wang Liyao soared to its peak in a short period of time.
The auction program has already started in the private boxes of the White Cloud Tower...
A flurry of large gold notes was stored, making Prince Heng smile just like the Maitreya Buddha. This Great Celestial Pride Liyao was really his God of Wealth nona—no, God of Wealth baby.
Time has passed in a flash.
In the blink of an eye, the challenge time arrived.
The White Cloud Tower was crowded with countless onlookers.
In a rather elegant private box, Wu Xue Ning, dressed like a little princess, pouted in anger: "Despicable Prince Heng, lousy Ancestor! Everyone is a branch of the Imperial Family, and such a close one at that. How could a small box be so expensive? It emptied all my pocket money."
In anger, she almost blurted out "old geezer".
"Grandma Empress Dowager, do not be upset." Wu Zhixing sipped tea and gently comforted, "Didn’t Prince already give us an eighty percent discount? Besides, it was you who insisted on watching. I can’t understand what’s so great about this fight; Wang Anan surely isn’t a match for Great Celestial Pride Liyao."
"Isn’t there a rumor outside that Wang Anan is a hidden Great Celestial Pride from Duke Dingguo’s Mansion and even a family generation under Wang Liyao~" Wu Xue Ning said strangely, "Doesn’t such an interesting matter deserve a look?"
"Uh~ haha..." Wu Zhixing chuckled awkwardly and covered it up, "Well, then let’s see what happens, at least we can see the grandeur of Great Celestial Pride Liyao."
Similar conversations echoed in other elegant seats. After all, with such a high price for a private box, those who insisted on paying must have considerable status.
This battle even attracted many nobles and royal scions who generally disliked the crowds.
On the brand new Obsidian Iron Arena, energy surged around the array.
As the challenger, Wang Anan was the first to step onto the arena. Under his magnificent Black Tortoise Battle Armor, his face was as dark as iron, clearly showing a bad mood.
No wonder, with friends joking about the grandma-grandson trope these days, his mood couldn’t possibly be good.
What’s more, the family started investigating whether Changning Wang Family was actually a branch of the Daqian Wang Family... If a Great Celestial Pride emerged from a branch, it would be a significant event for the main vein.
Soon enough.
Under the watchful eyes of all, Wang Liyao gracefully ascended the arena.
Hearing Prince Heng’s final words: "Girl, remember at least one incense stick time... to lay the foundation for our next wave of earnings."
As the words fell.
The Defense Array rumbled into action, a strong energy light shield enveloping the two inside.
Wang Liyao’s appearance was exceptionally elegant, as if a fairy, brightening many people’s eyes. Such a figure, temperament, demeanor truly lived up to the name of Great Celestial Pride.
Except Wang Anan, who was utterly displeased, greeted Wang Liyao with a dark face and impatiently said, "I heard Great Celestial Pride Liyao is of my grandma’s generation?"
"According to family heritage and generations, that is indeed so..." Wang Liyao replied calmly.
"Arrogant! The families have not yet acknowledged each other, and you casually assert seniority. I, Wang Anan, could also say that I am of your grandfather’s generation." Wang Anan roared angrily, "Today, let your Grandpa Anan teach you a lesson!"
With that, his figure flickered, suddenly transforming into seven or eight shadows, with dozens of sword lights engulfing Wang Liyao.
[Wang Family Shadow Splitting Sword], Upper Grade Sword Technique, is an untold secret of the Wang Family.
It’s said that when this sword technique is completely mastered, it can create hundreds of shadows and sword lights, invincible on the battlefield.
Wang Anan’s words were correct in the first half. After all, without contact from the same clan, one needs the Patriarch and Clan Elders to check genealogies and records and confirm several times before identities are clear.
Thus, if he only criticized the uncertainty of relations and advised against hastily recognizing relatives, Wang Liyao would naturally accept it calmly.
But such arrogant words, a mere "An"-characters junior, daring to claim to be Wang Liyao’s grandfather, isn’t it even taking advantage over her father?
In an instant.
A coldness flashed in Wang Liyao’s Star Eyes.
"Clang!"
A sound of metal rang out.
Caused by Liyao’s aura, an ancient Treasure Sword unsheathed swiftly, vibrating, humming, and flew around Wang Liyao.
A faint cyan light fell, reflecting Wang Liyao’s face in green.
It was indeed the Top-Grade Treasure Sword—"Xian Ge"!
"Sister Liyao! That person is too annoying, daring to take advantage of you! I’ll help you give him a beating!" the Sword Spirit’s eager voice like Xian Ge echoed.
Wang Liyao’s lips curved slightly, and she reached out, "Xian Ge" instantly in her grasp.
In the next moment.
An expansive, ocean-like sword light roared forth.
Facing a Fourth-Layer Celestial Human’s pride, she had several ways to defeat him merely expending a little Profound Qi with clever methods. Yet, at this moment, she chose the most straightforward approach.
