One of them was Gou Sheng, the Butler in charge of external affairs, who had sought help from the Qin Family in the past. The other one was Xiao Guan, who had sought help from Qin Wushuang recently. Currently, Xiao Guan’s responsibility was management of the Royal Mansion’s internal affairs, like what Qin Sixi had done.
With one in charge of external affairs and one overseeing the internal affairs, these two worked well despite their differences in personality. Qin Sixi did not need to worry too much and only focused on enjoying his retirement. They would only seek help from Qin Sixi if the matter was unsolvable.
“Marquis, Young Master.” These two immediately went up to bow when they saw Qin Lianshan and his son.
“Head Butler Gou, Head Butler Xiao, looking good.” Qin Wushuang patted Xiao Guan’s shoulder while speaking with a playful tone: “Xiao Guan, you’ve grown taller and you haven’t neglected your training. Good, work hard a bit more, soon you will have a chance to dash into the Upper Sky.”
Xiao Guan was deeply grateful. He had received Qin Wushuang’s promise that he would get a Supreme Quality Initial Stage Pill to aid him in his breakthrough to the Upper Sky. How could he not have caught Qin Wushuang’s hint.
“Marquis, Young Master, Head Butler Xiao is indeed, good at his job. The entire personnel of the Royal Mansion are impressed.” Gou Sheng praised him with a smiley face.
Then, Qin Wushuang patted Gou Sheng’s shoulder: “Head Butler Gou, you didn’t make the wrong choice by working for me, right?”
Gou Sheng was gladly and whole-heartedly convinced: “Not only was it the right choice, it was the smartest decision I made in my life. It’s also the luck accumulated from all ten of my previous lives.”
These were words from the bottom of his heart. The current prosperity and wealth he enjoyed was something he could never have imagined even in Gou Sheng’s wildest dreams.
“Continue the good work.” After speaking a few encouraging words, Qin Wushuang headed to the ancestral house with his father.
…
The one in charge of guarding the ancestral house was Qin Lianshan’s sworn brother, Qin Lianchuan. He was also a core member of the Qin family. He shared the bond of brotherhood with Qin Lianshan and was given the most important responsibility of protecting this ancestral house. Currently, after receiving the preferential treatment of the Royal Mansion, Qin Lianchuan’s power had also advanced rapidly. He had ferociously improved and was now at the peak of the Genuine Force. He led the Flying Feather, Fighting Bear, and Hunting Hawk teams as the main defending force of the ancestral house.
Currently, the strength of these three teams were also completely different than a few years ago. Not to mention elite warriors at the Genuine Force, even normal Upper Sky Initial Stage warriors would not gain anything while facing the joint attacks of these three teams.
Seeing that Qin Wushuang had come together with Qin Lianshan, Qin Lianchuan approached them: “Big brother, Wushuang.”
“Uncle Lianchuan, thanks for your hard work.” Qin Wushuang clapped his hands with Qin Lianchuan and asked, “In these years, did you feel any uncomfortableness after reconnecting your broken arm?”
Back then, the Xu family had broken Qin Lianchuna’s arm. it was Qin Wushuang who had gone through all means to reconnect his broken arm. After all these years, finally, Qin Wushuang had a chance to ask about it.
Laughing loudly, Qin Lianchuan said: “As good as before, no problem. Wushuang, not only is your strength powerful, your medical skill is also at a supreme level. Indeed, you can do anything.”
After he finished speaking, he yelled: “Kids, come greet the Marquis and the Young Master.”
From all sides of the ancestral house, a few dozen people emerged. These were all old faces. Regardless of the uniform or weapon, Qin Wushuang had designed and created it for them.
Only, compared to the initial immaturity they once had, these faces now appeared much more mature and wise.
“Greetings to the Marquis, Young Master.”
Qin Wushuang immediately said: “We are all brothers. No need for the extra formalities here. Uncle Lianchuan, these kids are not slow at improving their skills.”
Qin Lianchuan was gratified: “It’s because of your precise thoughts and good decision to build these three skilled teams. Now, the Royal Mansion possesses a strong trump card by having these three teams.”
However, Qin Lianshan said: “It would be better if this trump card is even more powerful. Wushuang, do you have any means?”
After a moment of silence, Qin Wushuang said with a smile: “I checked a moment ago and noticed that some of them are qualified to aim for the Upper Sky. If an opportunity comes and enough raw materials are collected, I will make some Initial Stage pills to help them achieve their wish to enter the Upper Sky. Of course, since Uncle Lianchuan is at the peak of the Genuine Force, he would only need a small opportunity to break into the Upper Sky. I will consider him first.”
Qin Lianchuan was overjoyed: “Wushuang, I also have a chance to aim for the Upper Sky?”
Qin Lianshan laughed: “Little Brother Lianchuan, since Wushuang has said it, then it will come to pass. Wushuang would not make promises easily.”
“Everyone, continue with your hard work. Give me some time, it might take as short as a year, or at most three years. When I return to the Royal Mansion again, I will give everyone a satisfactory answer. Not many of you have shown the potential to reach for the Upper Sky. I hope that next time, more people could show the potential. My goal is that as long as you have the potential, I will cultivate you vigorously. If you don’t have enough natural talent or luck, then it will depend on your own hard work and fortune. You must never doubt each other or hold grudges, understand?”
All those guards nodded collectively: “Rest assured, we understand!”
“Ok, everyone shall return to your roles. My father and I will go worship our ancestors. You will not let anyone come in!”
“Yes!”
Qin Wushuang and his father entered the ancestral house. Previously, this ancestral house was located in the Qin Manor. With the Royal Mansion expanded, the location was not moved. Only, they had made some embellishments and improvements to the exterior. The structure inside appeared the same as a few years ago when they last entered the house.
As soon as he had entered the ancestral house, inwardly, a strange sense of respect emerged from Qin Wushuang’s heart. He only felt that the the spirits of the Qin ancestors were sleeping here and he had to treat it with grave seriousness.
Qin Lianshan lit the incense sticks and handed half of them to Qin Wushuang after praying for a while. The father and son kneeled on the praying mat as Qin Lianshan intoned: “Ancestor spirits in the heavens, Lianshan has brought my son, Wushuang, to worship all spirits of the ancestors. Whether the ancestral instructions of the clan is true or not, today Wushuang has come to verify them. If the spirits can hear us, and care for the Qin clan, then please let Wushuang activate the mechanism successfully.”
After he had finished speaking, Qin Lianshan turned around and said to Qin Wushuang: “Wushuang, do you see that giant spear?”
Following his father’s hand gesture, Qin Wushuang looked forward. Over there, a black, shiny, and long spear was lying quietly in a prominent place before him.
Qin Wushuang nodded: “Father, for this ancestral long spear, I have watched you sharpen it whenever you have the time. I have watched you many times.”
In the original Qin Wushuang’s remaining memory, his father, Qin Lianshan, held a deep feeling toward this spear. Although he had never seen his father using it, he could see that his father had poured in his heart and expectations by watching his subtle movements.
With an expression as one was going on a pilgrimage, Qin Lianshan slowly approached that giant spear. He caressed this spear with an expression of longing and said: “Wushuang, this spear was passed down from our ancestors. Not only me, your grandfather, great grandfather, great-great-great grandfather, and everyone from generations ago have poured their hearts and mind into this spear. It’s highly likely almost no one from each generation had ever used it, the instruction passed down from our ancestors was to treasure and respect this spear. Wushuang, the ancestral instructions were written that, once the family faced a crisis, we must use this ancestral spear to save the family and fight for our future. Even if we don’t have the justice, we will use this spear to fight and to create the justice!”
Qin Wushuang listened quietly. He still remembered that when he had reincarnated into this world, his father, Qin Lianshan had been repeatedly sharpening this spear when he had learned of his son’s death!
He had sharpened it for three days and nights.
Thinking back, his father at that moment had been filled with the determination to fight to the death. He had planned to use this long spear passed down from his ancestors to carve a bloody path to justice!
“Father, this spear…” Qin Wushuang approached the long spear and grabbed it with his hand. At the same time, he initiated his Spiritual Qi and shook it lightly. In response, a sharp enchanting sound emerged from this spear as it continuously made these buzzing sounds.
“Wushuang, this is the cry of the spear!” Qin Lianshan was stunned, “I have touched this spear many times and never have I encountered such a strange thing. However, the moment you have it and initiated your Qi, it emitted such a violent and mournful sound. Could it be that this ancestral spear shares a predestined fate with you?”
Qin Wushuang also felt this thing was strange. He shook it again and that enchanting sound kept getting louder. The sound had turned from ear-piercing to a level that could penetrate one’s mind!
Qin Wushuang grabbed it with both his hands. He only felt that this spear was like a living soul, it produced an indescribable feeling of mutual understanding. It made Qin Wushuang feel an extremely delighted feeling from the bottom of his heart.
It seemed it was a predetermined fate arranged by destiny.
“Father, this spear is incredible!” Qin Wushuang gave a long sigh, “With this long spear, even if the Qin had fought with those Zhang or Xu while at the Humbel Class, we might not lose to them! Father, our Qin ancestors were incredible!”
Qin Wushuang’s words was not without truth. Currently, he held in possession many advanced weapons. Besides the Graceful Spiritual Bow, he had the Fury Dragon Soul at the Void Martial Stage.
However, the power of that Fury Dragon Soul was already incredible. Yet, compared to this long spear, Qin Wushuang felt that the whip’s power was far inferior to this ancestral spear!
Although the spiritual momentum of this giant spear was not natural like the Graceful Spiritual Bow, at his stage, Qin Wushuang could already sense its limitless potential.
“Wushuang, can you feel the power of this spear?” Qin Lianshan spoke with an excited tone.
“Yes, Father! This spear is not just any normal weapon.” Qin Wushuang only wanted to find an open space to test it. From that point, he would establish a deeper bond with this spear.
“Wushuang, if the secret ancestral instructions are true, the mechanism is inside this house. You must spend some time to find this mechanism.” Qin Lianshan gave a long sigh.
“Father, please wait for a moment, I will closely search for the whereabouts of this mechanism.” Qin Wushuang held this ancestral spear in his hand and initiated his spiritual perception at full power. He started to search all corners of the ancestral house. With one round of examinations, Qin Wushuang laughed.
His gaze stopped at the place where the ancestral spear had been originally placed. Then, he said with a leisurely tone: “Father, if I’ve guessed right, the mechanism is right there.”
