Uncle Wang! A Real Family Member

Even though Wang Chen's house was relatively remote at the time, it was Wang Chen own choice.

Moreover, the house's furnishings are not bad.

Inside the Wang Clan of the Jia Ma Imperial City, there are still people living in such dilapidated houses.

Even the servants of the Xiao Clan in Wutan City lived in houses that were slightly better than this.

"It seems the chances are even greater this time."

Seeing the dilapidated house, Wang Chen felt that the chances of success were much higher.

After all, the more they are mistreated by the Wang Clan, the more likely they are to want to take revenge on the Wang Clan.

Wang Chen felt that the kind of idiot who repays evil with kindness was unlikely to appear.

If there really is such an idiot, Wang Chen wouldn't mind helping him pass on to the afterlife.

To avoid such scoundrels harming one's own family.

Thinking about it, Wang Chen felt like he was a really "good person," and he could prevent those idiots from doing disgusting things.

Although it had nothing to do with him, Wang Chen couldn't stand such things.

In my past life, I lacked power and could only watch those idiots jump around.

However, once he arrives on the Dou Qi Continent and has the power to change such things, Wang Chen wouldn't mind doing a few things that would make him happy.

"I hope the other person isn't that kind of idiot!"

Wang Chen stood in front of the dilapidated house, thinking to himself, before stepping inside.

This time, Wang Chen didn't bother with any pretense.

After all, they wanted to get the information they needed from that Wang Clan Branch Line branch.

If he tries to hide his true intentions, and the other party thinks he's a Wang Clan Main Line testing him, then he'll never get the information he wants.

Moreover, Wang Chen wasn't worried about the other party seeing his face this time.

If the other party is willing to retaliate against the Wang Clan and give me the information I want, then the other party will definitely not betray me.

Moreover, to protect the other party, Wang Chen would specifically escort them out, which would eliminate any worry about them betraying him.

If the other party is determined not to reveal information and insists on being the kind of fool who repays evil with kindness, then Wang Chen has no choice but to send them to their death.

Regardless of the other party's choice, Wang Chen doesn't need to worry about them betraying him.

Since that's the case, Wang Chen naturally has no need to hide anything.

"Cough cough cough cough!"

As soon as Wang Chen stepped into the dilapidated courtyard, a violent coughing sound came from inside.

"Clap clap clap!"

"Father, are you feeling better?"

Then came another series of pats on the back, followed by a girl's question.

"Sigh~~"

Much better.

"Those guys really went too far, I..."

"Alright, don't say anything more, lest those bastards hear you."

"Creak!"

Just as the father and daughter were talking, Wang Chen pushed open the door and walked in.

"Who goes there!"

The sudden sound of the door being pushed open startled the father and daughter inside.

"Don't misunderstand, I'm not a direct descendant of the Wang Clan."

Upon entering, Wang Chen saw that the other person was startled and quickly offered an explanation.

Since he needed the other party to convey the information he wanted, Wang Chen naturally had no malicious intent to scare them.

Hearing Wang Chen say this, the father and daughter finally calmed down after being startled.

Then everyone turned their attention to Wang Chen. The girl didn't react much when she saw Wang Chen, but the man lying on the bed was stunned.

"Brother Gangzi!"

A single sentence slipped from the man's mouth.

This completely baffled Wang Chen.

When did I get this nickname?

However, Wang Chen soon realized that the other party had probably made a mistake.

He treated himself as his father, Wang Gang.

To be honest, he did have a memory of Wang Gang's appearance, which was almost exactly the same as his own.

Aside from the other person needing to look more mature and older, Wang Chen needs to look younger.

"No, you're not Gangzi."

I'm so confused, he's already...

Just as Wang Chen was about to offer an explanation, the man lying on the bed spoke again.

However, he didn't say anything, and in the end, it just turned into a sigh.

Wang Chen hates two types of people the most. The first type is people who only say half of what they mean.

However, Wang Chen understood that he was there to gather information, so he didn't argue with the other party.

After all, judging from the other party's situation, it's very likely that they have some connection with his father.

"By the way, do you know Wang Gang?"

Just as Wang Chen was about to say a few words to try and build a relationship with the other party so that he could gather information more easily.

As a result, the other party once again disrupted his plans first.

"My Wang Chen, Wang Gang is my father."

Although the plans were disrupted, Wang Chen didn't dwell on it too much and simply spoke up.

"Really?"

"By the way, you look almost exactly like Gangzi when he was young."

The man lying on the bed first asked a question, but before Wang Chen could explain, he had already filled in the blanks in his mind.

"Uncle Wang, what's going on?"

Since the other party was related to his father, Wang Chen seized the opportunity and directly acknowledged this elder.

Calling him "uncle" a couple of times won't cost him anything.

This also makes it easier to find out information on your own.

"Sigh~~"

"It's a long story."

Perhaps because he saw his brother Gangzi's son again, Wang Lin didn't think too much about it.

For example, how did Wang Chen manage to slip past the Wang Clan's patrols and find himself in this remote place?

Upon seeing this young man who looked exactly like Wang Gang, Wang Lin couldn't help but vent his own experiences.

"Originally, the Wang Clan relied on the connections of Wang Gang's elder brother to get close to the Xiao Clan."

It is precisely because of this that the Wang Clan has been able to maintain its current status in the Jia Ma Imperial City.

However, when the Xiao Clan fell from grace, the Wang Clan chose to kick them while they were down.

"And it was after this that things started to go wrong for the Wang Clan's collateral branches."

Wang Lin slowly began to speak, recounting the changes that had occurred in the Wang Clan.

After hearing Wang Lin's explanation, Wang Chen understood why Wang Lin had encountered such a situation.

The Wang Clan originally prospered because of Wang Gang's connections as a collateral relative.

Therefore, the collateral branches of the Wang Clan also occupied a very good position.

The resources they acquired were comparable to those of their direct subordinates.

But everything changed completely after the Xiao Clan declined and Wang Gang perished.

The resources of the Wang Clan Branch Line also returned to normal, with the vast majority of resources being supplied to the direct descendants.

Furthermore, the Wang Clan Main Line frequently suppress the Wang Clan Branch Line.

In particular, almost every member of the collateral branches who had gained considerable resources by following Wang Gang suffered setbacks.

"By the way, Uncle Wang."

What happened to you this time?

After listening to all this, Wang Chen also asked a question.

He had learned from the two young men in the Wang Clan that the reason the Third Young Master of the Wang Clan was suppressing Wang Lin was because of Wang Lin's daughter.

Wang Chen originally thought that Wang Lin's daughter must be incredibly beautiful, which led to the Third Young Master of the Wang Clan launching such a large-scale attack on Wang Lin.

But now, upon closer inspection, Wang Chen realized that things weren't quite as he had imagined.

What did Wang Lin's daughter say?

She's not bad looking, but she's not exactly stunning either.

She only has an average appearance.

Wang Chen really couldn't understand how someone with such looks could cause trouble for the Third Young Master of the Wang Clan.

After all, the Wang Clan is a powerful Dou Ling family in the Jia Ma Imperial City. The Third Young Master of the Wang Clan might not be qualified to set his sights on such a beautiful woman with both strength and background.

However, if someone is just an ordinary person with good looks, then it's still possible for them to do so, given their status as the Third Young Master of the Wang Clan, Wang Clan Main Line.

Wang Chen truly couldn't understand why someone would ignore those stunning beauties and come looking for a girl of average looks.

Upon hearing Wang Chen's question, Wang Lin sighed again.

"Sigh~~"

He didn't have his eye on my daughter; rather, he was using this method to suppress those of us who were once on equal footing with them.

Even if I agree, my daughter won't have a good ending.

This kind of thing has happened before.

That's why I've been enduring it.

Anyway, I'm an old man, I don't care if they beat me up.

After venting their anger like that, the other party won't cause trouble again for a while.

Facing Wang Chen, the son of his old friend, Wang Lin did not choose to hide anything and directly explained the reason.

Hearing this, Wang Chen understood.

No wonder that Third Young Master of the Wang Clan wanted to make a move on this ordinary girl; it turns out his real intentions were not what they seemed.

"By the way, Xiao Chen, how did you get here?"

"You can't stay here any longer; leave the Wang Clan immediately."

If those guys saw what you looked like, they definitely wouldn't let it go.

Those of us from the collateral branches who benefited from Brother Wang Gang's influence have all suffered such suppression.

Not to mention you, Wang Gang's son."

At this point, Wang Lin finally realized the crux of the problem and spoke directly to Wang Chen.

"Fortunately, I'm located on the outskirts of the Wang Clan's territory, so leaving is relatively easy."

I'll have Ling'er take you out through the side door in a bit."

Wang Lin continued talking to himself, arranging a proper retreat route for Wang Chen.

"Alright, Wang Lin."

Since I was able to get here quietly, I naturally have a way to leave as well.

But what's wrong with your body?

Wang Chen interrupted Wang Lin's arrangements and instead inquired about his health.

Wang Chen's ability to perceive souls is no joke.

He could clearly sense that Wang Lin's meridians had been damaged, which was why he had become a mortal.

Even Wang Chen doesn't do such ruthless things often.

Even if there's a conflict with him, Wang Chen will always give the other party a quick and decisive end.

To my utter surprise, I actually encountered another one here.

"Sigh~"

Upon hearing Wang Chen's question, Wang Lin naturally knew what he was referring to.

However, his face turned deathly pale, and he finally let out a sigh.

"My father's injuries were inflicted by those people from the Wang Clan."

Otherwise, my father would be a Dou Shi by now."

Wang Lin didn't offer an explanation; instead, it was the girl beside him who spoke up.

Upon hearing this, Wang Chen frowned.

He had originally greatly overestimated the wickedness of the Wang Clan's direct descendants.

But to my utter surprise, I still underestimated it.

Only someone with deep-seated hatred would never do something so degrading or insulting as to damage one's meridians.

But this Wang Clan Main Line actually did such a thing.

They share the same surname and are essentially one family.

But to everyone's surprise, they actually did something so horrific.

Let me take a look.

After listening, Wang Chen quickly stepped forward and began to carefully examine Wang Lin.

Previously, my soul perception had detected the general situation, but after a closer inspection, I discovered that the situation was even more serious than I had guessed.

If it were an ordinary person, Wang Lin would probably never have had a chance to fully recover.

But he was incredibly lucky; he ran into the cheater Wang Chen.

This injury was very serious, but since Wang Lin was only a Dou Shi at the time, the difficulty of making him fully recover was greatly reduced.

After a brief moment of thought, Wang Chen finalized the treatment plan.

However, this is, after all, the Wang Clan's Headquarters. If the treatment here is disturbed, the consequences would be very serious.

"Okay, Uncle Wang, you can come with me first."

"We'll talk about other things after I've cured you."

Since the other party was his father Wang Gang's good brother, and had been so considerate of him before, Wang Chen naturally wouldn't mind helping him out.

"Xiao Chen, what nonsense are you talking about?"

I know my situation best; there's no hope for me.

Moreover, I can't leave. Once I leave the Wang Clan, those guys will definitely not let it go.

Otherwise I would have left long ago.

Wang Lin also spoke to Wang Chen.

After all, if it weren't for the Wang Clan Main Line guarding them and preventing these collateral branches from leaving the Wang Clan...

It's likely that these Wang Clan Branch Line have already fled.

After all, leaving the Wang Clan meant losing their family influence, but at least they could live an ordinary life through their own efforts.

It's far better than this lousy life in the Wang Clan.

"Don't worry, my strength is still quite good."

Wang Chen knew that the other party had suffered so many blows from the Wang Clan Main Line over the years, and their fear of those direct descendants was already very profound.

No matter how nicely Wang Chen puts it, Wang Lin probably won't agree.

After all, he still has a daughter; he's not without ties.

Furthermore, given that Wang Chen is Wang Gang's son, Wang Lin would be even less likely to allow Wang Chen to put himself in danger.

"Look!"

Wang Chen stopped wasting time and summoned his Battle Qi Wings.

This factual evidence is more convincing than a thousand words.

"This... this..."

Upon seeing the Battle Qi Wings summoned by Wang Chen, Wang Lin was so shocked that he was speechless.

He pointed at Wang Chen and said "this" three times, but couldn't explain why.

Even Wang Lin's daughter, who was standing next to him, was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

In the Dou Qi Continent, the division of realms is deeply ingrained in people's minds.

Even an ordinary person who has not cultivated can understand what the Battle Qi Wings represent from a few words.

Not to mention that they are from Dou Ling family like the Wang Clan family.

Even those on the collateral branches of the family could learn of this information.

The fact that Wang Chen, an old friend, had become a Dou Wang level expert was astonishing to Wang Lin.

It should be noted that the strongest person the Wang Clan has publicly revealed right now is only a Dou Ling.

Wang Chen, at such a young age, has already surpassed the strongest member of the Wang Clan.

Wang Lin, who had some initial concerns, did not stick to his original idea and chose to leave with Wang Chen.
