“Miss, maybe we should reconsider.” came the slightly shaky voice of Wang Shou Yong, “Fourth brother is quite formidable. Even big brother might not necessarily be able to best him.”

“Reconsider? Wang Shou Yong, when you were munching on my dried fish, did you say reconsider then?” Wang Licui chimed in, mimicking a mature tone, “You ate my food, that makes you my person now. I warn you, if you disobey me, I’ll spill about our pact to Fourth Uncle.”

“Wang Licui, you’re being unreasonable. When you gave us the dried fish, you never mentioned it was to take down Fourth brother.” Another young man, Wang Shoulian, chimed in, his voice nearly on the verge of tears, “And Fourth brother almost got admitted into the Purple Abode Academic Palace, who can beat him?”

“Idiot, it’s not like we’re asking you to fight him one on one,” Wang Licui scoffed, “We lure the big baddy into a trap and swarm him all at once, covering his head with a sack. He’d be so confused, he wouldn’t know who hit him.” Wang Shouzhe was both amused and exasperated. This mischievous bunch seemed to be conspiring to beat him up.

And it was Wang Licui, the innocent little rabbit when she was in front of him, who was now rallying a group of little brats to retaliate against him.

The sudden shift in behavior took him by surprise, proving that her title of the troublesome big girl was not unwarranted.

“Wang Luo Jing, you’re acting suspicious. You’re not planning to betray us, are you?” A dominating voice echoed, presumably belonging to a sassy little girl, “The big sister already mentioned that the fourth brother has a pile of books ready for us to read. If we don’t finish, he’ll glare and scare the life out of us. You may like reading, but I certainly don’t.

Wang Shouzhe recognized the voice, it was his third uncle’s daughter, Wang Luoqiu. She was just eleven years old but already on the second level of the Qi Refinement state. He had been meaning to meet and encourage her but had not had the chance.

“Wang Luoqiu, I also don’t want to read, but I don’t think your scheme could take down our fourth brother.” Wang Luo Jing replied, “He’s much fiercer than you can handle.”

“Luo Jing, don’t you have an insectarium?” Wang Luoqiu suggested, “You can

release the insects to sting him.”

“No way, no way.” Wang Luo Jing immediately shook her head.

Wang Shouzhe’s face darkened. What kind of brothers and sisters were these?

In order to get out of reading, they were actually plotting against their elder

brother.

Thankfully, Wang Luo Jing still seemed to have some sense and respect for

their fourth brother, which was somewhat reassuring.

“If we want to defeat fourth brother, we will need to hatch the second batch of Purple Crystal Spirit Bees.” Wang Luo Jing calculated, “We have no hope of victory with a frontal attack. Luoqiu, you can pretend to sprain your ankle. Then I’ll take the opportunity to release the Purple Crystal Spirit Bees. Given your young age, fourth brother will definitely rush to protect you first… and then fifth and sixth brother can rush forward with their sacks…

Cold sweat began to trickle from Wang Shouzhe’s temples.

What a vicious plan. What kind of siblings were these? Especially Wang Luo Jing! The Purple Crystal Spirit Beehive was bought by me, wasn’t it?

Wait, she managed to raise the Purple Crystal Spirit Bees? Truly a little devil.

But these brothers and sisters and nieces were not like themselves in front of him. They all pretended to be obedient and well-behaved angels. However, the split second they were out of his sight, they became completely different. Perhaps Ruotong was right. They shouldn’t underestimate Wang Luo Jing. That little girl was eccentric from a young age and highly unlikely to be a harmless, demure girl.

“Luo Jing, you indeed have a plentiful supply of cunning ideas.” the big girl Wang Licui praised,” I’ll reward you with an extra pack of dried octopus later, and I’ll tell you about the vast and magnificent sea, the grand and magnificent Jinsha Island City, and the story of how I was invincible in Jinsha Island City.” Wang Shouzhe’s lips twitched. Well done, Wang Licui. I asked you to distribute the snacks evenly. However, you used these resources to form an alliance and plot against me!

You think you’ re invincible? What could a little girl like you possibly do? With your intelligence, you’ll probably be outsmarted by Wang Luo Jing.

“But I’ll say this in advance.” Wang Luo Jing spoke up, “We just need fourth brother to sign a promise not to force us to study anymore. And we absolutely can’t hit fourth brother’s face. Fourth brother is so handsome, if we make his face swollen, he won’t look good anymore.

He could no longer bear to listen.

Wang Shouzhe walked out with an amused smile: “Ah Luo Jing, I never realized that you cherish your fourth brother so much. I’m really warmed to the core.”

“Ah?”

A group of kids who were hatching a plot against the ‘big demon king’ were suddenly dumbstruck. Their conspiracy had been overheard by the target himself and they were caught red-handed.

They were done for.

The most frightened among them were Wang Luo Jing and Wang Licui.

One of them was the mastermind and the other the planner, both were clearly up to no good.

“I’m greeting you now, Fourth Uncle, and I’ll also say ‘goodbye’ now.” Wang Licui’s knees gave way, her neck retracted as she prepared to dash off.

Wang Luo Jing’s face was pale as a sheet and she quietly hid behind Wang Shou Yong. Of the three girls, only the eleven-year-old Wang Luoqiu was staring wide-eyed at Wang Shouzhe. She seemed surprised by his appearance, but also somewhat defiant.

As for his brothers, Wang Shou Yong and Wang Shoulian, they seemed the most timid-ducking their heads and trembling. They had been raised with the strict code of the Wang family which was especially rigorous towards boys. Wang Shouzhe, being their brother and the leader of the direct line of the Wang Family, had the right to discipline them if he felt they disrespected him.

“Freeze!”

Wang Shouzhe said with a grin, “Wang Licui, Wang Luo Jing. Just remember, you may be able to outrun the monk, but you can’t outrun the temple.” Both girls, one taller and the other shorter, glanced at each other and then obediently came back to Wang Shouzhe, looking as docile as quails.

“Fourth big brother, I swear I won’t dare to do it again.”

“Fourth Uncle’ boo hoo, I was just joking with you.

Wang Shouzhe ignored them and turned his gaze to Wang Shou Yong and Wang Shoulian, saying with a half-smile, “Shou Yong, Shoulian. You both seem to have a big problem with your fourth brother, don’t you?”

Both brothers were scared and quickly waved their hands, “No, no, we usually admire our fourth brother the most.” This was true, Wang Shouzhe was like a shining star among those of the same generation, and they admired him from the bottom of their hearts.

“Then why do you want to throw a sack over me this time? Did anyone put you up to it?” When Wang Shouzhe asked this, he felt a bit amused. A sack? What a terrific scheme these guys came up with.

“No, no one ordered us.” They both shook their heads vigorously. Although they were scared, they still said, “This is all our own idea. If fourth brother wants to punish us, we are ready to accept it.

That sounded reasonable, at least somewhat representative of the Wei family’s responsibility. Just as he was about to speak, Wang Luoqiu, who was watching him with a frown on her face, threw herself on him: “Fourth brother, you’re being a bully.”

The little girl was certainly feisty.

“Luoqiu.” Wang Shouzhe laughed. “Tell me, how is your fourth brother bullying you?”

“I don’t want to read those books anymore, they’re so annoying.” Wang Luoqiu said with a headache, “Could you stop forcing me to read, fourth brother?” “It’s okay if you don’t want to read.” Wang Shouzhe nodded.

“Really?” Wang Luoqiu said with a mix of surprise and joy, “Fourth brother, you’re the best.”

“Don’t get too excited yet, there’s a condition for not wanting to read.” Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, looking at his four younger siblings and one niece. If I were to force you to do your homework as an older brother or as the clan leader, I’m afraid you wouldn’t take it to heart. How about we make a deal? Each year, you can challenge me once, openly or secretly. If you win, I’ll go with you. If you lose, you can’t skip any of your schoolwork for a whole year.” “Okay, it’s a deal.” WangLuoqiu’s eyes lit up, “I’ll accept on behalf of everyone.”

Then, the others looked at her with reproachful eyes: Who asked you to accept on our behalf? Without fourth brother’s precautions, we might have a small chance if we strategize and plan. But now that he’s prepared, how on earth are we going to challenge him?

“Buck up, don’t be so pessimistic.” Wang Luoqiu said, “Isn’t it just studying hard and cultivating if we lose? We can win again next year.”

Such confidence made Wang Shouzhe look at her with admiration.

This little girl’s courage was admirable, no wonder she had already reached the second level of the Vital Energy Refining Realm at such a young age.

If she maintains this momentum, with the family’s current financial resources, even if she isn’t as good as Old Ancestor Longyan, she’s sure to be a powerful woman.

Despite the unexpected encounter, Wang Shouzhe felt that these younger sisters were quite energetic.

But his two younger brothers needed more improvement. They were not strong-willed enough and a bit dull. They needed some polishing.

If a clan wants to thrive, it can’t rely solely on him, Wang Shouzhe. The more excellent talents and up-and-coming future geniuses the better, only then can the clan truly prosper.

•Hehe, let me teach you a lesson.” Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, “If you ever want to plot anything, make sure to find a quiet and safe place.” “Fourth brother, I was wrong.” Wang Luo Jing, with tears in her eyes, moved closer in grievance. “You’re so good to me, but because I don’t like reading…

boo hoo-”

“Alright, alright, I’m not blaming you.” Wang Shouzhe really felt for Luo Jing. Her father died early, leaving her and her mother alone. Even though the clan took care of them, they still lacked a father’s love.

“Then can fourth brother forgive me?” Wang Luo Jing asked hopefully.

“What forgiveness? I didn’t blame you in the first place.” Wang Shouzhe ruffled her hair, comforting her, “Actually, I think it’s normal that you have your own unique thoughts and are a bit rebellious. You didn’t really want to hurt your fourth brother.” is that so? Wang Licui was stunned. She quickly walked up, pulling a face of insincere apology on her chubby face, “Fourth Uncle, I am also a bit rebellious, you definitely don’t blame me either, right?”

“Beat it!”

Wang Shouzhe glared at her angrily, scaring Wang Licui to step back several steps. Covering her thumping heart, she felt regretful. How can Wang Luo Jing get away with acting spoiled…

“Fourth brother, thank you.” Wang Luo Jing, with her eyes half-closed, leapt into Wang Shouzhe’s arms, “Anyway, Luo Jing swears, I will, I will protect fourth brother for my whole life.”

“Hehe- Luo Jing, your words really touch me and I believe you.” Wang Shouzhe laughed, “But can you stop throwing strange creatures at me while you’ re clinging to me? Your beauty trap doesn’t work on me.”

As he spoke, he flicked his finger, and a red-headed centipede over a foot long was expelled from his arms before it could take effect. After writhing a few times on the ground, it lost its life.
