Chapter 183: Chapter 3: My Daughter Has the Bearing of a Great Emperor (Seeking Recommendation Votes)
...
This has its benefits, establishing a good atmosphere for the family.
Even the Clan Leader and his wife are so loving and respectful to each other, living in harmony.
Other couples naturally follow their example.
The most helpless thing for Wang Shouzhe is that every time he advances and becomes stronger, Liu Ruolan always advances a step before him, and he still can’t beat her!
Isn’t Wang Shouzhe still a few months away from completely refining his Qi Refining Realm?
And Liu Ruolan, taking care of the children, doesn’t seem to exert much effort, yet she completed it ahead of him.
Maybe this is one of the reasons why Wang Shouzhe wants a second bloodline enhancement.
At least he can ensure that in case he accidentally uses too much strength, his wife won’t become a widow.
"Husband, I made this bowl of lotus seed porridge just for you, you should drink it first. Actually, I didn’t mean to hide it from you, it’s just that you never asked," Liu Ruolan said innocently, "Moreover, didn’t you also conceal your bloodline back then? On our wedding night, your vines really gave me a shock."
Liu Ruolan is quite easy-going when she is not provoked.
This one benefit makes Wang Shouzhe quite pleased.
Hence, Wang Shouzhe happily finished the lotus seed porridge. Even though the porridge was supposed to be sweet, his wife accidentally added refined salt instead, and quite a bit at that.
He still smiled and said, my wife has good culinary skills.
"Thank you, husband, for the compliment. By the way, husband, Ruotong came to report that the Spirit Testing Platform you commissioned the Array Master to purchase and oversee construction at the Academy has been completed. See if you have time in the next couple of days to inspect it. Coincidentally, our Liyao has also reached the age for talent testing."
"If Liyao has Black Tortoise Talent, we should start nurturing her meridians and prepare for cultivation," Liu Ruolan gently reminded, truly being a supportive wife.
When it comes to the beloved daughter, Wang Shouzhe’s expression becomes animated: "My treasure daughter Wang Shouzhe, she is surely extraordinarily gifted."
The Spirit Testing Platform was built by Wang Shouzhe at great expense, the array platform and labor alone costing no less than several thousands Qian Gold.
Normally, families wishing to test a child’s talent must go to the official Spirit Testing Platform at the Changning Guard Government Office.
That platform is open to the public, even commoners can apply. However, testing each person costs ten Qian Gold, and it’s opened for collective use after applying, not available at whim.
Nowadays the Wang Family isn’t incapable of affording this testing money.
It’s just that the family bloodlines are quite eclectic, and Wang Shouzhe doesn’t want the various peculiar bloodlines to stir up a commotion.
Most ordinary families, either can’t afford to build a Spirit Testing Platform or would celebrate finding a child with a decent talent by spreading the news all around, thus leaving Wang Shouzhe without such concerns.
Moreover, Wang Shouzhe has additional thoughts regarding the Spirit Testing Platform.
Thus, building a Spirit Testing Platform at home is a necessity. Even if it costs social capital and over ten thousand Qian Gold, it’s worth it.
With this in mind, Wang Shouzhe said: "Then let’s go tomorrow, and inform the siblings to retest their talents together."
Wang Shouzhe last tested his talent at seven years old, and he doesn’t know how his talent is after his bloodline concentration changed.
After finalizing the matter.
Wang Shouzhe glanced left and right, seeing no one around, he said softly: "Wife, since your {Profound Water True Technique} has reached the peak of Qi Refining Realm, it’s been a long time since we’ve sparred."
Liu Ruolan’s pretty face blushed slightly, her apricot eyes showing a hint of spring, and she said with a blushing face: "Husband, your {Eternal Spring True Technique} is also nearing completion. I haven’t experienced your prowess in a while either."
"It’s just that the children are still studying in the study... I’m afraid it might be inconvenient," she said with a shy, red face and some concern.
Wang Shouzhe smiled and said: "No worries, we can go to the Water Moon Celestial Pavilion."
Water Moon Celestial Pavilion.
That’s a small villa that Wang Shouzhe built these years on an island in the center of Zhuwei Lake, after expanding the land.
It’s like a private secret hideaway for the couple.
The primary purpose of its construction was to temporarily escape from the mischievous children, offering the couple a chance to enjoy the moon and lake together, feeling comfortable, and perhaps sparring the Black Tortoise Combat Technique if they were in the mood.
No other meaning, just the literal.
Liu Ruolan’s beautiful eyes moved slightly, clearly quite tempted. She hesitated briefly and then said softly, "Hmm, I’ll follow husband’s arrangements."
Thus.
After giving a few instructions to Qiao’Er, the couple disappeared.
An hour later.
The two kids studying hard in the study.
Suddenly.
They realized it’s been a while since they saw father and mother.
Wang Liyao pouted: "Father clearly promised to come and tell the story of Chang’e, why hasn’t he come yet?"
"Mother also said she would check our homework, but she hasn’t come either." Wang Zong’an rolled his eyes and said, "Could they have gone to practice the Black Tortoise Combat Technique again?"
"Most likely, father and mother have been quite diligent in their training lately."
Beside them, Qiao’Er had a drop of cold sweat.
...
Next day, the backyard of Wang Family’s Main Residence.
An empty and uninhabited courtyard was put to use to build a Spirit Testing Platform.
That Spirit Testing Platform, shaped like an Eight Trigrams, is carved from white jade stone and adorned with many intricate and mysterious runes on it.
