Chapter 356: Wang Qingze Takes a Concubine

Wang Yaolong smiled confidently and said, "Senior Chen, don't worry! Qing Shan has killed countless Class 2 Mid-Grade demonic beasts. With him on the job, there will be no problems."

Chen Hu looked a little surprised, and the doubt in his eyes lessened. Since Wang Yaolong said so, he couldn't object any further. Wang Ruyan had just given birth, and he didn't think his family had the influence to ask Wang Changsheng to abandon his wife and child to help the Chen family slay a demon.

"I just got back. I'll go to the Chen family with Senior Chen in two days."

Chen Hu nodded in agreement.

"Alright, Twenty-fifth Great-Grandfather, Fellow Daoist Chen, please talk slowly. I'm going to see Ninth Aunt."

With that, Wang Qingshan turned and left.

Wang Qingshan arrived at Wang Changsheng's residence and found it crowded with people, each with a broad smile on their face.

"Alright, alright, thank you, uncles and brothers. Ruyan has just given birth, so let her rest well. Please go back! I'll hold a celebratory banquet another day."

Wang Changsheng cupped his hands to everyone and said politely.

"Everyone, please go back! Don't disturb sister-in-law's rest. We'll hold a proper celebration banquet another day."

Wang Changyue also urged.

Hearing this, everyone left one after another.

Before long, only Wang Changsheng, Wang Changyue, and Wang Qingshan remained.

"Ninth Uncle, congratulations! This nephew doesn't have much to offer, but here is the inner core of a Class 2 Mid-Grade Cold Ice Toad."

Wang Qingshan offered his congratulations, took out a cyan wooden box, and handed it to Wang Changsheng.

Wang Changsheng thanked him, accepted the cyan wooden box, and asked with concern, "Qingshan, where have you been hunting demonic beasts these past two years? Have you encountered any trouble?"

Wang Qingshan didn't hide anything and told them truthfully, also informing Wang Changsheng and Wang Changyue about Chen Hu's visit.

"Class 2 Mid-Grade demonic beasts! The area near the Chen family's stronghold is a large marshland. Before you set off, go to the treasury and collect two Detoxification and Clarity Pills. I hope you won't need them."

Wang Changsheng pondered for a moment, then cautioned with some worry.

Wang Qingshan was experienced in combat, and with the assistance of a Class 2 Mid-Grade puppet beast, dealing with two Class 2 demonic beasts shouldn't be a problem.

"Ninth Uncle, many of our Class 2 puppet beasts are damaged. Please repair them when you have time."

Wang Qingshan took out a cyan storage pouch and handed it to Wang Changsheng.

"Hehe, I can finally go out and relax."

Wang Changyue smiled sweetly, a look of longing on her face.

She was a formation master, but the Wang family didn't need that many formations to be set up, so she spent more time cultivating.

Wang Changyue couldn't refine formation flags herself, but she could pack the formation materials in batches and give them to Wang Changhuan to refine the flags. She could produce one set of Class 2 Low-Grade formation flags a year, which, after deducting costs, yielded a profit of over two thousand spirit stones. If there weren't so few Class 2 artifact refiners in the Wang family, and if Wang Changsheng wasn't busy cultivating, the profit would be even greater.

Of course, Wang Changyue didn't know many Class 2 formations. She relied entirely on her own exploration to set up formations, so her formation-laying skills weren't high, and she had no formation masters to communicate with.

She did want to communicate with other formation masters, but unfortunately, she had no opportunities.

"You haven't traveled far, and you don't have much experience hunting demonic beasts. You just focus on setting up formations. How about we call Eighteenth Brother back? If the two of you go together, I'll feel more at ease."

"No need, Ninth Uncle. They're just two Class 2 demonic beasts. With the assistance of the Class 2 puppet beasts, I can handle it. Red Leaf Ridge needs Eighteenth Uncle to watch over it, and I heard Eighteenth Uncle is in seclusion for cultivation, so it's best not to disturb him. I can handle this matter."

Wang Qingshan said confidently.

Wang Changsheng pondered for a moment, then took out a gleaming golden sphere and handed it to Wang Qingshan, saying, "Repairing Class 2 puppet beasts takes a lot of time. Take this Class 2 High-Grade puppet beast with you. With your Spirit Sense at Foundation Establishment Second Layer, you can't control it for too long. So, act quickly and don't drag it out."

"Understood, thank you, Ninth Uncle."

"Why thank me? We're family. Keep this Class 2 High-Grade puppet beast for your own use. Try not to use it when hunting demonic beasts; keep it as a trump card. By the time you return, I might already be in seclusion. This seclusion period will likely be quite long. Your Ninth Aunt will also enter seclusion after some recovery time; she's been stuck at Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer for many years. The family will rely on you two to look after things more."

Wang Changsheng instructed with a serious expression.

Wang Qingshan and Wang Changyue agreed; it was their responsibility and duty.

After a while of chatting, Wang Changyue and Wang Qingshan bid farewell and left.

Two days later, Wang Changyue and Wang Qingshan, accompanied by ten clan members, left Wang Family Fort and headed to the Chen family with Chen Hu.

At Qingyue Market, Four Seas Restaurant.

The main hall was packed, and there were few empty seats on the second and third floors. Business was booming.

Wang Qingze emerged from the back kitchen, highly pleased to see the restaurant's thriving business.

"Manager Wang, this Purple-Scaled Crucian Carp soup is excellent. I just love this dish at your Four Seas Restaurant."

"If you ask me, the Hundred Fruits Brew is truly exceptional, especially paired with stir-fried spirit frog. It's simply wonderful."

Hearing the customers' praises, Wang Qingze's smile deepened. He cupped his hands to everyone and said with a laugh, "It's all thanks to the support of you fellow daoists and seniors; otherwise, our restaurant would have closed long ago. Our Four Seas Restaurant has introduced two new types of spirit pastries. Please try them and give us your feedback."

As soon as Wang Qingze finished speaking, five young men in green robes emerged from the back kitchen, each carrying a tray, and delivered a plate of spirit pastries to every table.

This gesture earned unanimous praise from the other customers.

Wang Qingze's ability to run the Four Seas Restaurant so successfully was due not only to the family's investment but also to his considerable personal effort.

No matter how delicious something is, one eventually tires of it. To combat this, he spent a significant amount of money hiring three spirit chefs and two pastry chefs. He introduced a new dish every so often and occasionally offered free food to customers, such as spirit pastries, fruits, and fish soup. Regular customers received discounts, and high-spending patrons received gifts during festivals. This strategy was why his Four Seas Restaurant's business was so prosperous.

Of course, he wasn't self-taught; Wang Changxing had taught him all of this. Wang Changxing had extensive experience in this area.

Before long, he arrived at a private room on the third floor. Inside the room were two women: a young woman in a green skirt and a young girl in a blue skirt.

"Manager Wang, I know you're busy with business, but you shouldn't neglect Little Sister Lin! She's been waiting for you for half the day."

The young woman in the green skirt complained.

"My apologies, truly my apologies, Madam Song, Fairy Lin. This is all my fault. I was just busy attending to the restaurant's business. I will punish myself by drinking three cups as a penance."

Wang Qingze said apologetically, his gaze quickly sweeping over the young girl in the blue skirt.

He was already married, and his wife had given birth to three sons and one daughter, none of whom had spiritual roots.

Only after becoming a father did he understand Wang Changxing. A father is responsible for his children's upbringing. To help him progress further on the path of immortality, Wang Changxing worked outside for years, saving every penny. Unfortunately, he had been foolish in his youth and wasted Wang Changxing's painstaking efforts.
