My Waste Husband novel Chapter 558

The Clan's ranking list?

Hearing these, Henry was full of doubts, but he didn't show anything on his face. He just shook his head and said, "My clan has never participated in any clan activities. To tell you the truth, this is the first time I've heard of this list."

Hearing this, the patriarch of the Tang clan nodded slightly.

The clan ranking battle was usually held by the Li family of Longxi. Every time, there were only 15 clans taking part in it. These 15 clans were all big clans. The Tang clan ranked at the bottom among them. The other small clans would not be invited at all. If Henry said that he had participated in the clan ranking battles, the patriarch of the Tang clan would doubt his words.

The patriarch of the Tang clan said, "The battle is held every five years. It determines the power of the clan. For a long time, the Li family of Longxi has been well-deserved overlord, while the Tang clan has been only at the bottom."

"Is the Li family of Longxi really that powerful?" Henry asked calmly.

Henry observed that while he said these words, the eyes of the patriarch of the Tang clan could not help but reveal a hint of fear. This small detail made Henry's heart skip a beat.

The patriarch of the Tang clan answered, "The Li family of Longxi has always been a well-deserved overlord. There are rich resources in the clan, many geniuses and masters. It's said that the Martial Emperor is in charge of the clan. How can they not be strong?"

"Martial Emperor?"

This title surprised Henry. What kind of person would be called Martial Emperor?

The title of Emperor was very significant in the ancient China. The clans had been present since ancient times. What kind of person could be able to be called Martial Emperor among the clans?

Henry was shocked, but he didn't ask.

There were more than a hundred Qi masters in the Li family of Longxi. These masters were no longer something that Henry could deal with.

The 4th chieftain and the man with the bamboo hat told Henry that compared with the Li family of Longxi, Radiant Island was as weak as an ant.

Seeing that Henry did not continue to ask, the patriarch of the Tang clan said, "Young man, I heard from Uriah that your clan does not know how to use Spiritual Stone properly?"

The patriarch of the Tang clan made a big detour and said the most important thing at this moment.

Henry found that after the patriarch finished speaking, those people standing in front of the gate of Tang family Citadel showed signs of interest on their faces.

Henry nodded and said, "To be honest, there is indeed no knowledge on how to use Spiritual Stone in my clan. I need to explore everything by myself."

When Henry finished his words, the people couldn't help but sneer. Who could use the stone without relying on the inheritance!

The patriarch looked at Henry, took a deep breath and said, "I don't know if you have any stones with you. Can I have a look?"

"Of course." Henry reached out his hand and touched it in his trouser pocket. Then a piece of crystal was taken out of his pocket.

The crystal was only three centimetres long and wide, showing a transparent brilliance, giving people a feeling of purity. However, the moment it was taken out, the eyes of the patriarch of the Tang clan, including those people all shrank.

Uriah, who had been by the side of the patriarch, pulled the sleeve of the patriarch and said softly, "Patriarch."

After being pulled by Uriah, the patriarch immediately reacted and realized that he had lost his composure. He quickly shook his head, and reluctantly returned the stone to Henry. "Young man, sorry for my behaviour. I just can't control my emotions."

"Understandable." Henry put the stone back into his pocket.

The patriarch reluctantly moved his eyes away from Henry's pocket, turned around, and said to those middle-aged men and women standing in front of the citadel, "Open the gate and prepare a banquet!"

The vermilion gate of Tang family Citadel, which had three big golden words on it, slowly opened. A greenstone wall was located behind the gate. It was carved with pictures of people.

"Young man, please!" The patriarch of the Tang clan said again.

Inside the gate of Tang family Citadel, there were several pavilions, which looked like a unique courtyard. At the end of the valley, there was a pool where the fish were swimming.

As soon as Henry entered the Tang family Citadel, the tempting smell of food came to his nose.

The patriarch of the Tang clan smiled and said, "Young man, these vegetables were all planted by us. I hope you don't mind them being simple."

"Patriarch, you are too modest. Now, these homegrown vegetables are more popular than some expensive food. It's my honour to taste them." Henry also said a few polite words.
