Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 428: Chapter 102: Blood Witch No.3_1

…

However, even so, in Wang Shouzhe’s view, there is still room for improvement in the strength of Elder Longyan. This has always been his regret.

The ancestral bloodline talent of Elder Longyan is merely at Mid-Rank ‘A’ Level. This is even after taking Junior Bloodline Aptitude Improvement Liquid. This made her reach only the second high segment of Bloodline Awakening in the realm of Spirit Platform, half a step short of the third segment.

But this half-step difference proved to be fatal.

This means that if she advances to the Heavenly Human Realm, she would still be half a step away from awakening her Spiritual Body.

Such a bloodline talent is excellent for most celestial prominent families. However, within the current Ping’an Wang Family, it seems somewhat inferior.

After all, there are quite a few members of the Ping’an Wang Family who have awakened their third-level bloodline in the realm of the Spirit Platform, and even Liu Ruolan who has awakened the fourth-level (spirit body) bloodline in the same realm!

Wang Shouzhe, who understands bloodline talents more and more, knows that the lower the awakening level of the bloodline, the easier it is to improve. Once it reaches the third high segment, if you want to go a half-step forward, you must rely on against-the-heaven treasures like the Origin Water Spiritual Pearl, just like his wife Liu Ruolan.

However, treasures like Origin Water Spiritual Pearl are stumbled upon by luck.

Therefore, in order to pave the way for Elder Longyan’s future, Wang Shouzhe, relying on the increasing wealth of his clan, has exhaustively got three Bone Marrow Cleansing Pills over the years. Then, at an unlimited cost, he relied on two of the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pills to raise Elder Longyan’s bloodline level by half a step.

This made Elder Longyan finally achieve the threefold bloodline awakening during the Spirit Platform Realm, truly becoming a Sky Pride.

A Sky Pride of the same rank as Fang Youan and Prince Yin Yuzhe.

Once she advances to the Heavenly Human Realm one day, she would be able to directly awaken her Spiritual Body. From then on, no matter where she goes, she would be an influential figure.

However,

The top-grade Spirit Armor and the top-grade Spirit Sword on Elder Longyan were not bought by Wang Shouzhe. Instead, they were the rewards from Wang Luo Jing and Wang Luoqiu after their trial in the Divine Martial Dynasty relics.

When choosing the top-grade Spirit Armor and top-grade Spirit Sword, they had already planned to give these two treasures to Elder Longyan. Like Wang Shouzhe, they grew up under the shelter of their old ancestor and have a special affection for Elder Longyan.

Moreover, they also know that their family still faces a powerful enemy. Brother Wang Shouzhe does not want them to get involved and only hopes that they can grow up safely in the Academic Palace, paving the way for their future dominance. They dare not disobey their brother’s order, they decided to give all acquired treasures to the family in secret.

In their own words, their present main tasks in the Academic Palace are studying and practicing. They wouldn’t be able to use treasures like spiritual treasures and top-grade spiritual implements even if they got some.

Also for this reason, everyone supports Elder Longyan together, making the combat power of Elder Longyan, who is now at Spirit Platform Realm Level Eight, comparable to the weakest Heavenly Human Realm.

Even when encountering a Realm Cultivator in the Heavenly Human realm like the Old Ancestor of Beichen who is a step stronger than the base level, she can still fight, at least not lose in a short time. With the Feiyu Spirit Treasure, she could save her life.

…

The moment Elder Longyan revealed her power,

An amazing aura suddenly erupted from Liu Ruolan on the other side. A set of water-blue spiritual armor suddenly appeared on her body.

Her appearance was originally elegant and gentle, but it was made more heroic under the foil of this battle armor, highlighting her unmatchable dominant temperament.

This set of spiritual armor is indeed another top-grade spiritual artifact!

At the same time, a pair of Feiyu Spirit Treasures also emerged from her back.

Unlike the pair of Feiyu Spirit Treasures of the Old Ancestor Longyan, these Feiyu Spirit Treasures were thin and transparent, lingering behind her like a gentle breeze. Each feather, falling shards of light, highlighted her increasingly ethereal and otherworldly temperament, almost not resembling a living being.

The graceful and enchanting Dharma Shadow emerged almost simultaneously with the Feiyu Spirit Treasures. It was as if a subtle change was taking place in the world, with countless water auras converging, like swallows returning to the forest, and disappearing into the Dharma Shadow.

The majestic force emanated from her body in waves, vast and limitless, almost as formidable as the Elder Beichen beside her.

Would Wang Shouzhe, who is always prepared for the worst, really put all his hopes on others?

When it comes down to it, the most reliable ones are still his own people.

His wife, Liu Ruolan, although currently only at the fourth level of the Spirit Platform Realm, just barely entering the mid-stage, has already awakened her water Aura Body, becoming a great Sky Pride, with extraordinary strength.

Therefore, Wang Shouzhe included her in the key development targets and made her one of the trump cards of the Ping’an Wang Family.

She already owned a top-grade Spirit Sword named “Autumn Water,” and Wang Shouzhe, with a heavy heart, spared no effort (and Qian Gold) to purchase a top-grade Water Aura Battle Armor for her. In this way, with both offense and defense covered, plus the Feiyu Spirit Treasures, her strength is already comparable to the weakest in the Heavenly Human Realm.

If she can successfully summon “Liu Ruoling,” her combat power will increase drastically again. Although it has not been tested, Wang Shouzhe estimates that she has a high probability of suppressing the weaker cultivators in the Heavenly Human Realm like Elder Beichen.

To increase the combat power of both Old Ancestor Longyan and Liu Ruolan, Wang Shouzhe has spent nearly two million Qian Gold in just a few years.

This huge expenditure not only drained all the family income but also led to a debt of nearly a million to their in-laws and allies.

However, the effect was also astounding.

With the appearance of Liu Ruolan, both Xiao Yuanwu and Zhong Xiangyang, two cultivators in the Heavenly Human Realm, didn’t want to talk anymore.

Don’t ask them why. The answer is because they’re jealous.

As Wang Longyan and Liu Ruolan stepped forward, the formerly cocky Elder Beichen’s face collapsed.

Are these two here to help? Or to slap his face?

Elder Beichen was very distressed and upset.

After struggling to ascend to the Heavenly Human Realm, he was at the height of his pride. But he never expected that his two Spirit Platform realm comrades seemed to be not much weaker than him.

Looking at the top-grade spiritual artifacts they were covered in, compared to the pitiful middle-grade one in his hand, he wished he could crawl into a crack in the ground. Even his pride of carrying the heavy burden dissipated by about seventy to eighty percent.

It’s all because that Wang Shouzhe is too rich.

Poor Changning Xu Family of his, they had to accumulate a pile of debt to help him ascend to the Heavenly Human realm, and every penny they earned in the past two years went to paying off the debt.

However, the most distressed at the moment is Elder Hua Ye.

Once the three of them took action together, Elder Hua Ye’s previous confidence shatters.

He was a seasoned celestial being who had lived for 270 years, yet he was tightly squeezed by a “greenhorn” who had just advanced to the Tianren realm and two cultivators in the Spirit Platform Realm, wrapped in top-grade relics.

If word about this got out, how was he supposed to stay afloat in this world?

If it weren’t that he couldn’t muster the means or the strength, he would have liked to bellow in fury, is it really that great to be rich?

This situation was totally unexpected.

It had far exceeded Huangfu Jinhuan’s expectations.

He originally thought that their old ancestor could take on the three of them, and even if he couldn’t immediately take them down, at least he would have the upper hand. But the situation turned out to be so dangerous.

“Wang Shouzhe, I admit I underestimated the Wang family.” Huangfu Jinhuan’s fierce expression changed all of a sudden, “It’s just a pity that you planned everything just perfectly, but you didn’t take yourself into account. Elders and heads of households, let us all attack together, let’s take Wang Shouzhe down first, let’s see if his Wang family has any qualifications to fight against us!”.

At this moment of life and death, even the pampered Huangfu Jinhuan drew his Spirit Instrument Level longsword and joined the battle.

He took the lead with his sword in hand, and directly charged towards Wang Shouzhe.

The four Spirit Platform Realm elders and household heads immediately followed, ready to join hands with Huangfu Jinhuan and apply the strategy of “capturing the king first”.

“This is bad!” Zhong Xiangyang’s face changed slightly, “Why is young friend Shouzhe so careless? He ended up leading to this situation after showing all his cards.”

“This is probably the result of overthinking.” Xiao Yuanwu coldly snorted with a hint of irony, “He focused all his attention on Huangfu Hua Ye and me but overlooked the Spirit Platform Realm cultivators of the Huangfu family. Perhaps, he was being too high-handed and didn’t take the Spirit Platform Realm into account at all.”

“Both Wang Shouzhe and the Cape Guard have power levels just touching the Spirit Platform Realm’s early stage, two against five and among them, three are in the Spirit Platform Realm mid-stage! I do want to see what kind of trick he has up his sleeve to turn the tables.”

As he spoke, the four Spirit Platform Realm elders and household leaders from the Huangfu family already had Wang Shouzhe surrounded.

However, even at this point, Wang Shouzhe’s face remained calm, showing no sign of being “in danger”.

“This decades-long grudge, it seems, will have to be settled by us, the Wang family.” He said lightly, “Shouwei, take action.”

“Yes, Family Head.”

The man in the cloak, naturally, was the war soldier Wang Shouwei.

He responded with a firm voice and charged forward without any hint of fear.

With every step he took, his body grew larger.

“Hisss!”

As his body expanded, his cloak and clothes tore apart, revealing a body built like steel.

At the same time, both of his giant hands opened outwards and instantaneously turned into two large shields.

He seemed reliable, radiating a potent sense of safety.

He stood like an iron wall, blocking three Spirit Platform Realm cultivators, including the not-so-strong Huangfu Jinhuan.

“Is that… a Guard-Type Puppet?”

Huangfu Jinhuan’s excited expression froze on his face, astonished and irked, did Wang Shouzhe still have any scruples? One expensive trump card after another was played.

Moreover, the strength of this Guard-Type Puppet was extraordinary. Even with three Spirit Platform Realm cultivators combined, they were unable to break down his shield of steel.

Could such a high-level Guard-Type Puppet be obtained with one million Qian gold?

“Good job, Wang Shouwei.”

Wang Shouzhe approved with satisfaction.

Indeed, the products from the Divine Martial Relics truly were top quality.

Originally, he was quite skeptical of a Guard-Type Puppet at the Spirit Platform Realm’s early stage being the final reward. After all, a mere Spirit Platform Realm combat unit could not compare to Bloodthirsty Vines, Yuan Water Spirit Pearls, and other spiritual treasures, could it?

However, once he took possession of it, he realized that it was indeed “a delight” to have.

The Divine Martial Dynasty’s view of Spirit Platform Realm’s early-stage battle capability, and Da Qian’s concept of the same were not the same at all. Even the bloodline talent of the old ancestor, Longyan, was considered just an Elite Militia.

Therefore, one can imagine how formidable the protective capability of a Guard-Type Puppet, produced under this concept and at the early stage of the Spirit Platform Realm, would be?

Meanwhile,

Wang Shouzhe lightly tapped his foot, his figure moving back like a drifting willow leaf.

This movement skill called “Spring Blooms” was a perfect match with the “Spirit Platform Chapter” of Longevity True Verse. Unlike the flitting posture of a willow fluff, the speed was much faster. In a blink, he retreated several meters.

As he retreated, he scattered handfuls of seeds, saying to the blocked Huangfu Jinhuan, “Master Jinhuan, do you know why I chose to block the weakest of you all?”

Huangfu Jinhuan felt a chill in his heart, an ominous premonition immediately surfaced.

“That’s because, I want you to witness our final victory on behalf of your ancestors of Huangfu Clan.” The light in Wang Shouzhe’s eyes was icy cold, his voice filled with deep hatred, “Let them atone for their sins down there, make them regret it!”

As Wang Shouzhe’s words fell, the seeds of the vines rapidly took root and sprouted, with shoots growing wildly.

The stems of these vines were a little different from the previous Witch series. They had tiny barbs and a faint red color to them.

That’s right.

These new vines were a hybrid between the “Witch” series and the Bloodthirsty Vines that Wang Shouzhe had cultivated. They not only inherited the rapid growth of the Witch series but also a part of the paralyzing and bloodthirsty traits of the Bloodthirsty Vines.

Wang Shouzhe named them – “Witch No.3”.
