Replace me as the top scholar? Go talk to my Marshal Grandpa!

Western suburbs of Xingquan City.

Outside the abandoned warehouse.

The night was as dark as ink, and a cold wind howled.

Wang Yuanshan, leading more than thirty elite members of his branch, finally arrived at the remote, abandoned warehouse, guided by the blood-red threads.

"strangeness……"

Wang Yuanshan frowned, a hint of doubt appearing on his aged face: "Why would the young master be in a place like this?"

Outside the warehouse, several guards dressed in black were leaning against the wall smoking. When they saw the convoy suddenly appear, they immediately straightened up on alert.

"Halt! Private property, no entry!" the head guard shouted sternly.

Wang Yuanshan raised his hand to signal everyone to stop. Suppressing his anxiety, he said in a deep voice, "I am Wang Yuanshan, the head of the Xingquan Wang family. I have come here to find someone. Please do me a favor."

"The Wang family?"

The head guard paused for a moment, then sneered, "I don't care if you're from the Wang or Li family. This is private property. If you don't want to die, get out of here!"

A cold glint flashed in Wang Yuanshan's eyes, but remembering that the young master was inside, and that he didn't know the relationship between these people and the young master, he patiently continued:

"This person is very important to our Wang family. Could you please do me the honor of letting this old man go in and take a look?"

The guards exchanged glances.

"I have no idea what you're talking about!"

The head guard suddenly drew his large sword from his waist: "This is your last warning, leave now!"

Wang Yuanshan finally lost his patience.

"presumptuous!"

His aged body suddenly erupted with a terrifying aura, and his robes fluttered even without wind!

With a wave of his right hand, a visible shockwave exploded outwards!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The guards didn't even have a chance to react before they were thrown out like rag dolls, crashing heavily into the warehouse's iron door and spitting out blood!

"Break down the gate and go find the young master!"

Wang Yuanshan shouted sternly.

Several elites behind him made a move, and the heavy iron gate instantly twisted and deformed before collapsing with a crash!

Amidst the swirling dust, Wang Yuanshan rushed inside impatiently.

However, the scene before him struck the seasoned old man like a thunderbolt!

In the dimly lit center of the warehouse.

A young man covered in blood was chained to a cross, his body covered in shocking wounds.

The most terrifying thing is.

There was a bloody hole the size of a bowl on his spine, as if something had been forcibly ripped away by some sharp weapon!

And the blood-red thread extending from the jade talisman was firmly connected to this young man!

"Young...Young Master?!"

Wang Yuanshan trembled all over, and tears welled up in his eyes instantly!

He staggered forward, his trembling fingers gently touching the young man's pale face.

"What...what on earth is going on?!"

The elites from the Wang family branch who arrived from behind were also stunned.

They never imagined that the orphan of Major General Wang Quan, the grandson of the Great Xia Marshal, would be imprisoned and tortured like livestock!

"boom!!"

Wang Yuanshan suddenly unleashed a terrifying killing intent, and the temperature in the entire warehouse seemed to drop to freezing point instantly!

"Damn it! Who! Who did this?! I'll wipe out their whole family!!"

He spoke slowly and deliberately, each word seeming to have been squeezed out of hell.

His aged face was now contorted like a demon, and his cloudy eyes were bloodshot!

Wang Yuanshan whirled around, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at the guards he had knocked down, and roared:

"Take down all these scum!"

"Break their limbs, cripple their cultivation, and don't let a single one escape!"

The reason I didn't kill them was that I didn't want them to die so easily.

"yes!"

Dozens of elite Wang family warriors suddenly sprang up, pouncing on the guards who were paralyzed on the ground like tigers.

Screams echoed throughout the warehouse, the sound of bones shattering sending chills down one's spine.

"Ah! My hand!"

"Spare me...spare me!"

Wang Yuanshan ignored him and, with trembling hands, tried to untie the heavy iron chain.

When he saw that the iron chains had dug deep into Wang Xian's flesh, the old man could no longer control himself, and tears streamed down his face.

"Young master... this old servant is late..."

"This old servant will rescue you right away!"

"Snap!"

With a crisp sound.

The specially made alloy chain was crushed.

Wang Yuanshan carefully supported Wang Xian's swaying body and took out a crystal-clear jade bottle from his pocket.

Inside the jade bottle.

A golden pill the size of a longan fruit emitted a refreshing fragrance.

Wang Yuanshan gently pried open Wang Xian's mouth and put the pill into it.

The elixir melted upon entering the mouth, transforming into golden light that permeated the limbs and bones.

Wang Xian's pale face regained color at a visible speed.

However, the gruesome blood hole in his spine did not heal.

"Well……"

With a soft groan, Wang Xian's eyelids trembled slightly, and she finally opened her eyes.

Looking at the unfamiliar faces before him, he asked, "Who...are you?"

His voice was terribly hoarse.

Wang Yuanshan immediately knelt on one knee, tears streaming down his face: "This old servant is Wang Yuanshan, the head of a branch of the Wang family. I have come here on the orders of Marshal Wang and the Fifth Master of the Wang family to welcome the young master home!"

"Marshal Wang?"

Wang Xian frowned slightly, then suddenly realized.

He still remembered activating the sign-in opportunity system before he fell into a coma and signing in for a seven-star opportunity, becoming the grandson of Marshal Wang Junba of the Great Xia Dynasty!

Therefore, these people in front of him are most likely people sent by Marshal Wang Junba to find him.

Wang Xianqiang suppressed his understanding and deliberately feigned confusion: "Marshal Wang? Fifth Master of the Wang family? I don't understand what you're talking about."

Wang Yuanshan quickly wiped away his tears, his voice choked with emotion: "Young Master, actually your father was the youngest Major General in the history of the Great Xia Dynasty, Major General Wang Quan!"

"And Marshal Wang Junba is none other than your own grandfather!"

"Fifth Master Wang is your father's elder brother..."

Wang Yuanshan told Wang Xian everything.

Seeing that Wang Xian still looked confused, the old man hurriedly took out an ancient jade pendant from his robes: "Look, this is the Wang family's bloodline jade pendant; only direct descendants can activate it!"

As soon as the jade pendant approached Wang Xian, it emitted a dazzling golden light!

"This can't be faked!"

Wang Yuanshan's voice trembled with excitement: "Young Master, the purest Wang family blood flows in your veins!"

Wang Xian pretended to realize something.

"Young Master, who on earth has harmed you like this? This old servant will surely tear him to pieces!" Wang Yuanshan exclaimed excitedly.

Wang Xian's eyes instantly turned cold.

He slowly reached for the gruesome bloody hole in his spine, his hatred surging.

"It's Hengjin Group! Bai E!"

As he spoke, the temperature inside the warehouse seemed to plummet.

When they talked about how Bai E led people to surround him, how he imprisoned him here, and how he used that terrifying device to extract his S-level talent from his body, Wang Yuanshan and the surrounding Wang family warriors were all trembling with anger!

"Damn it! Damn Hengjin Group! They're asking for it!"

A middle-aged martial artist couldn't resist punching the wall, and the entire concrete wall collapsed instantly!

Wang Yuanshan was overcome with emotion and tears streamed down his face.

"How dare Hengjin Group treat the Wang family's bloodline, the old marshal's grandson, like this!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"I want the Hengjin Group to be drenched in blood!"
