“If big uncle wishes to send cousin to higher heights, it is best that you make a move yourself and settle this matter quickly. Many things can happen if you were to delay it! Furthermore, I think that cousin Wang Li possess greater talent in governance than in the military. I hope that big uncle can consider this as well.”

Wang Chong said.

In his previous life, Yao Clan had schemed for the downfall of everyone in the Wang Clan to whittle down its influence in the royal court. Wang Chong’s father, big uncle, uncle, little uncle, cousin Wang Li, and Wang Chong’s eldest brother, Wang Fu, were on the list.

Big Brother Wang Fu had a stable footing in his position, so the Yao Clan was unable to lay their hands on him. However, his cousin Wang Li was different.

Based on what Wang Chong recalled from his previous life, big uncle was too anxious then and added Wang Li’s name into the promotion list of the royal court. Thus, the Yao Clan made full use of this opportunity.

Yao Guang Yi made use of the Bureau of Military Personnel’s personnel redeployment to put Wang Li under him. Then, he tried all means to make him commit mistakes. Not too long later, something occurred to Wang Li, and he became a spear for the Yao Clan to deal with the Wang Clan.

But back then, big uncle and father had already fallen, so the handle over Wang Li was of no use.

However, the situation was different now. Yao Guang Yi had suffered a setback by the border, and father and big uncle were still standing tall in the royal court. In order to deal with the Wang Clan. they would definitely make a move there.

‘A dam of a thousand li crumbles can crumble due to an ants’ nest’. Given the capabilities of the old and young wily fox of the Yao Clan, they would definitely try all means possible to overthrow the Wang Clan if such an opportunity were to fall into their laps.

Wang Chong told this to Big Uncle Wang Gen was to remind him of the possibility. Big uncle may not be interested in the affairs of Wang Chong’s family, but it was impossible for him to remain unmoved by his own son’s plight.

Wang Chong was selling him a favor. At the same time, he was trying to alter the impression his big uncle had of him.

“I know what to do, so you don’t have to bother about this matter. Also, leave the matter with the Yao Clan to us. I will report the matter today truthfully to the Old Master.”

Big Uncle Wang Gen said. His face was clearly much gentler than before.

Boom!

At that instant when big uncle spoke, a mechanic voice devoid of any emotions suddenly rang in Wang Chong’s head:

【User has awakened! You have successfully altered the destiny of your clan and received the approval of your clanmate. Thus, you have been awarded the title ‘Destiny Struggler’!】

Wang Chong was startled. The voice disappeared as quickly as it appeared, making Wang Chong doubt if he was hallucinating.

“What was going on?”

Shocked by the sudden voice in his head, Wang Chong’s face turned ghastly white.

The voice appeared abruptly and it clearly wasn’t the voice of anyone who was present in the room. In fact, it seemed to have simply appeared in his head, and that wasn’t just it.

Wang Chong remembered the voice. In his previous life, when he was on the verge of death, he had once heard this voice. Even though he couldn’t recall the contents of what it said, he remembered the mechanic voice.

Wang Chong did not expect that he would hear it again at this moment.

“Chong-er, are you alright?”
