Chapter 340 - The Four Martial Cultivator Bodyguards Warning
In that instant, their hearts surged with wild joy!
They quickly opened their eyes and leapt to their feet, their faces alight with ecstasy.
Seeing their eyes open, Soong Wanzhong rushed to their side, his voice laced with urgency.
“How did it go? Tell me!”
The four were elated at his question. Third Brother spoke up.
“Master, we've truly become martial cultivators. I feel my strength has multiplied by at least four or five times, and there's a new sensation of qi within me!”
Second Brother and Fourth Brother chimed in together.
“We feel the same!”
Then, hesitantly, Eldest Brother added.
“I'm not sure just how strong I've become!”
“But I do feel incredibly powerful, incredibly so!”
Hearing this, Jiang Hao smiled and offered reassurance.
“Don't worry, it's simply that your strength has increased so significantly that you're not yet able to fully harness it.”
“Uncle Hai will spar with you shortly and help you gain mastery over your newfound power.”
Uncle Hai, hearing this, nodded with delight.
Soong Wanzhong, relieved by the news, then prompted them.
“Don't delay—express your gratitude to Mr. Jiang!”
His words snapped the four out of their reverie.
They turned to Jiang Hao, bent their knees, and knelt in gratitude.
“Mr. Jiang, we owe you a debt of gratitude for this second chance at life!”
As Soong Wanzhong's confidants, they fully understood the significance of becoming martial cultivators!
With the dawn of a new era upon them, martial cultivators were poised to be the protagonists of this new chapter!
Jiang Hao had elevated them from mere mortals to martial cultivators—it was indeed a second chance at life!
Seeing their gesture, Jiang Hao quickly stepped forward to lift them up.
“No need for thanks. Just ensure you protect your uncle well—that's all I ask.”
“Remember, though I've granted you the status of martial cultivators, don't let it go to your heads and make things difficult for your uncle.
Bear in mind, the power I've given can just as easily be taken away!”
The four brothers absorbed his words with solemn respect and quickly responded.
“Rest assured, Mr. Jiang. We've served our master since childhood, and he's treated us as his own sons. We would never dream of betraying him!”
At that moment, Soong Wanzhong smiled at Jiang Hao and expressed his gratitude.
“Thank you, my dear nephew. Those four have been with me since their childhood, and I have only one daughter, Wan'er.
They've grown up alongside Wan'er, acting as her brothers all this time. To consider them my own sons wouldn't be too far off the mark!”
Jiang Hao nodded in response.
“That's reassuring to hear!”
“Now that everything's settled, Uncle Hai can take them to train and help them get accustomed to their newfound strength.”
After speaking, a serious expression crossed Jiang Hao's face as he addressed the group.
“Listen, I'd like everyone to keep today's events to themselves. Otherwise, we might inadvertently invite serious trouble.”
The crowd understood Jiang Hao's concern and quickly reassured him.
“Mr. Jiang, you have our word—today will be as if nothing happened.”
“Nephew, you have my assurance; I understand the gravity of the situation.”
With that, everyone filed out of Soong Wanzhong's study.
Once outside, Uncle Hai approached with respect.
“Mr. Jiang, I'll take them now to get a handle on their powers.”
Before Jiang Hao could respond, Soong Wanzhong, clearly intrigued, chimed in.
“Nephew, since it's not yet time for dinner, why don't we go and see for ourselves?”
Jiang Hao was still considering when Soong Wan came running up and latched onto his arm.
“What are you all going to see? I want to come too!”
Soong Wanzhong appeared resigned, yet he made no move to stop her.
“Alright, alright! We'll all go together!”
