Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 203: Chapter 11: Shou Zhe! Double Bloodline Awakening (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_2

“Lici, just surrender,” Wang Shouzhe urgently exclaimed, “Fourth Uncle will get you some delicious food.”

“Ah!” Wang Licui roared in anger, “You dare underestimate me, I’m going to eat you.”

At this moment, Wang Licui was engulfed in rage.

An intimidating and potent energy began to permeate her body, as if a terrifying behemoth were about to emerge.

“Awoo~”

Following a deafening roar, an invisible surge of energy condensed behind Wang Licui and manifested into a towering, petrifying beast. The beast was ferocious-looking with a huge mouth and large belly as if it could devour everything in sight.

However, since the energy was somewhat dispersed, the terrifying creature appeared faint and elusive. Despite this, the demon puppet froze in its tracks, a trace of fear apparent in its cold stare.

It was quite clear that its spiritual intelligence hadn’t been completely wiped out, retaining many base instincts.

“Dharma shadow?” Old Ancestor Ruhong exclaimed, “Even many Tianren Realm cultivation masters can’t conjure a Dharma shadow, right?”

“You make a big deal out of nothing,” Elder Xuanfu responded, “For some Sky Prides with particularly potent bloodline abilities, it’s normal to conjure a Dharma shadow during the Vital Energy Refining Realm, mainly due to their bloodline concentration.”

Old Ancestor Longyan also said, “There are two Direct Disciples at the Academic Palace who are said to have conjured Dharma shadows at the Vital Energy Refining Realm. I just didn’t expect that Lici could do it too.”

Upon hearing this, the remaining ancestors present were filled with envy. Didn’t this mean that Wang Licui had the potential of the Academic Palace’s direct disciples? And not every direct disciple could conjure a Dharma shadow during the Vital Energy Refining Realm, right?

Hers would likely be a smooth journey in the Heavenly Dao.

“Forgive my ignorance, but what is that child’s Dharma shadow?” Old Ancestor Ruhong asked, “Please enlighten me, Sister Xuanfu.”

Sister Xuanfu?

Wang Shouzhe was slightly taken aback, and then he remembered that Old Ancestor Ruhong appeared older because he entered the Spiritual Platform Realm later. In fact, he was over a decade younger than Elder Xuanfu.

Elder Xuanfu’s eyes flashed with anger, glaring sharply at Old Ancestor Ruhong. You old coot, you’re doing this on purpose to irritate me, aren’t you?

But who could blame her? She was indeed older.”

Elder Xuanfu coldly responded: “There are countless bloodlines in the world and various mutations, how could I possibly know them all? Judging by its appearance, it seems to be some kind of devouring talent.”

They were not particularly concerned about this Spiritual Platform Realm demon puppet, after all, it was only a demon that had just entered the Spiritual Platform Realm, and anyone could defeat it.

While they were talking,

Wang Licui had already launched herself into fierce combat with the demon puppet, their fight was intense.

She even battered the demon puppet horribly.

However, her energy didn’t hold up for long. With the constant consumption of her bloodline energy, the Dharma shadow behind her gradually grew dim. It seemed like it couldn’t maintain its form any longer.

“She’s in the end just in the Vital Energy Refining Realm,” Old Ancestor Ruhong said regretfully, “It’s already remarkable that she can conjure a Dharma shadow, but defeating Spiritual Platform Realm opponents is too difficult.”

As Wang Licui’s Dharma shadow faded and crumbled, she finally admitted defeat and regained some sanity. Seeing her predicament was dire, she quickly shouted, “I surrender!”

With her surrender, despite its discontent, the demon puppet had no choice but to stop moving. It disappeared gradually while glaring begrudgingly at Wang Licui.

At the same time, Wang Shouzhe had already rushed up and caught Wang Licui in his arms.

He rapidly channeled his green Mysterious Energy into her body to assist her in her treatment.

“Fourth Uncle, I wounded it, did you see?” Wang Licui asked weakly.

“I saw, I saw, Your performance was very good this time.” Wang Shouzhe hurriedly replied, “Fourth Uncle promises you that he will not regret his decision and will keep his word. After this is over, I’ll take you to the County Town to enjoy delicious food.”

“Hehehe.” Wang Licui felt cheerful even at the thought of delicious food, and she couldn’t help but oink with delight. She had never tasted food from the County Town before, and even the mere thought of it was tantalizing.”

By the time Wang Shouzhe carried her back,

Youngsters like Wang Luoqiu and Wang Luo Jing, among others, surrounded her with expressions of concern. Especially Luo Jing and Luo Qiu, who told her, “Your performance took us by surprise.”

“But we won’t lose to you. Once we reach the peak of the Vital Energy Refining Realm, we’ll definitely take down that demon puppet.”

The two of them seemed to have found their motivation to strive harder.

“Husband, it’s my turn to go up, right?” Liu Ruolan said after comforting Wang Licui for a while.

“It’s late today, and the visibility isn’t favorable,” Wang Shouzhe said, “Rest for the night, and continue tomorrow.”

Following Wang Shouzhe’s arrangements, everyone began to set up camp within the gorge.

That night.

Wang Shouzhe took Luo Jing’s bottle of Primary Bloodline Improvement Fluid and retreated for solitary cultivation. He had previously spent a fortune to buy a Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill. Relying on that pill, his aptitude reached Middle Grade ‘A’ Level, but he never succeeded in awakening the double bloodline.

This was his last attempt in the Qi Refinement realm.

After swallowing the Primary Bloodline Improvement fluid, a bitter taste seeped into his internal organs. However, a cooling sensation quickly spread throughout his body.

He didn’t dare to dally, swiftly entering into a state of cultivation.

Four hours later, when he opened his eyes, a look of joy appeared, and many black stains seeped through the pores, clearly evidencing the evolution of his bloodline.

He could feel clearly that his bloodline was now filled with a powerful aura.

Double Bloodline Awakening.

The feeling was so overwhelming that he almost cried tears of joy.

Eight years, it had been eight years for this moment.

In the midst of it all, he didn’t know how much money he had spent or which connections and paths he had taken, but he finally achieved the Double Bloodline Awakening.

Furthermore, he now understood that his aptitude had probably reached Top Grade, most likely a Class D. Although likely similar to Wang Licui, he didn’t squander his aptitude like she did.

“From today onwards, I can also consider myself a Sky Pride.” Wang Shouzhe was overwhelmed with excitement. “Even if I go to the Academic Palace, I can compete for the status of a Direct Disciple now.”

Though actually him going to school was not possible, it still represented that he was now at that level.

In the past, he had managed to pass the preliminary selection of the Academic Palace. However, whether they wanted him or not was another matter. Now that he had directly reached a Top Grade Class D aptitude, he was able to compete with the top Sky Pride in Longzuo County.

Moreover, he firmly believed that with his abilities, he would eventually suppress all those Sky Prides.

“Congratulations, you’ve awakened your double bloodline,” Liu Ruolan came over and spoke with a radiant smile, “You have officially entered the ranks of the Sky Prides.”

Upon seeing Liu Ruolan, Wang Shouzhe was like a bucket of cold water being poured over him, extinguishing his burning excitement. His achievement was nothing more than an arduous Double Bloodline Awakening, just like Wang Licui.

He was some distance from his wife Liu Ruolan, and it wasn’t a small distance either.

After a good wash, he went to sleep. He still had to clear the replica dungeon the next day.

…

The following day!

At dawn

It seemed to signify the arrival of a good day.

Everyone gathered once again.

In the entire gathering of young people, only Wang Shouzhe and Liu Ruolan hadn’t taken the trial yet.

Just as Wang Shouzhe was about to step forward, Liu Ruolan grabbed him. “Husband, as the head of the clan, you should go last. I will go first.”

“Ok, be careful, my wife. It doesn’t matter if you can’t win.” Wang Shouzhe spoke indulgently. “Don’t get hurt, it will grieve me.”

The old ancestor stared at Wang Shouzhe. What do you mean ‘it doesn’t matter if she can’t win’? Even that Licui girl has passed three exams.

“Alright, husband, I’ll do as you say.” Liu Ruolan obediently nodded, held her sword, and walked towards the Trial Platform, whispering to the Artifact Spirit that she wanted to give the trial a shot.

She bore resemblance to a lady of stature, raising children and following her husband’s words, more so than a peerless Sky Pride.

Today, it seemed not as if she had come for a trial but for an outing with her spouse.

Seeing her, the old ancestor sighed in her heart. After much difficulty, she had gotten her hands on an Innate Dao fetus spirit seed.

And this was the result…

“As you wish, commoner.”

With the Artifact Spirit’s voice falling, a ferocious-looking demon puppet appeared, looking viciously evil, it launched towards Liu Ruolan.
