Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 493: Chapter 16 Miss 9! Who is the Destined One? _1

…

“Ah~ what a pity for Yu Hang!” Even the whimsically charming Lady Huandie let out a sigh, her tone heavy, “Based on Yu Hang’s potential, he originally had a three to four-tenths chance to step into the Purple Abode. After this disaster, his probability of successfully entering the Purple Abode has fallen below twenty percent.”

A probability of less than twenty percent essentially sentenced Yu Hang to death.

On Master Yuan Shui’s jade-like face, a layer of anger emerged: “The little bastards of the Demonic Land are too vicious, picking on the weak with their number advantage. This is intolerable! I, Master Yuan Shui, will not let this matter rest.”

“Yuan Shui, my disciple Longyan has also experienced the infiltration of Yin Sha into her body for decades.” Said Master Binglan, who wore a veil over her face, “She resolved the crisis by using Yin Sha for her own purposes. If this method works, it can quickly alleviate Yu Hang’s injury.”

“Master Binglan, surely our dignified Purple Abode Academic Palace can’t all dabble in the Yin Sha method?” Master Changchun subtly expressed his dissatisfaction, “If we open this door without careful consideration, our Purple Abode Academic Palace might as well be renamed the Yin Sha Demonic Clan.”

“Moreover, I have some understanding of Wang Longyan’s condition. She has been eroded by Yin Sha for a full fifty years. Every day, she is fighting against Yin Sha, making her understanding of it stronger than typical Demonic Cultivators. Only then did she have the ability to neutralize Yin Sha and use it for herself. Yu Hang certainly can’t accomplish that.”

“Hmph, Changchun, what does an old fossil like you know? My disciple Longyan suffered immensely.” Master Binglan rebutted, “Why don’t you try it?”

“Alright, alright, we’ve reached a conclusion on this matter before, we made an exception for Wang Longyan.” Master Yuan Shui, playing peacemaker, said, “However, senior brother Changchun is correct, it does not bode well for the reputation of the Purple Abode Academic Palace if we casually allow the practice of Yin Sha. Instead, I would request master Binglan to write a letter inviting Wang Longyan to the Academic Palace, to see if she can neutralize the Xuan Yin Poison in Yu Hang.”

Xuan Yin Poison, even more virulent than the ordinary Yin Sha, is taken by Master Yuan Shui with just a try-and-see attitude.

“No need to write a letter, my disciple Longyan is conducting business in the county town, I can just send a disciple to invite her.” Master Binglan respected Master Yuan Shui and chose not to continue her confrontation with Master Changchun on this matter.

After all, it was Master Yuan Shui who smoothed things over last time, creating an exception for Wang Longyan.

“Well, then thank you, Master Binglan.” Master Yuan Shui expressed gratitude with a bow, Yu Hang was his most promising direct disciple. They had been together for nearly three hundred years, sharing deep and affectionate bonds that were akin to father and son.

“The issue of Yu Hang boils down to the lack of strength in our high-end combat force in the outer realm battlefield.” Master Xuanyao said, “Even though our principal is constantly in retreat and the deputy principal is wandering around…However, on the issue of Yu Hang, we, the Longzuo Purple Abode Academic Palace, must make a statement.

“How about this, since I have nothing to do lately anyway, I’ll take a trip to the outer realm battlefield to prevent those old things from the Yin Sha Demonic Cult from thinking we don’t have anyone to attend.”

Right then, a harsh light flashed across Master Xuanyao’s eyes.

“I’ll also take a trip to the outer realm.” Master Binglan said with a calm, “Furthermore, my disciple Yu An has been making great progress recently, he’s due to go out to temper himself.”

Master Changchun, stroking his beard, said: “This old bone of mine hasn’t been out to the outer realm battlefield in quite some time. Green Fern has reached the Heavenly Human Realm, I will take her out to see the world.”

The three Masters expressed their opinions one by one.

Lady Huandie spoke: “The presence of the three of you is enough. I’ll stay home with Yuan Shui. All core disciples amongst us who have reached the Heavenly Human Realm should go and temper themselves in the outer realm battlefield. You three look after them.”

Despite some competitions within the Longzuo Purple Abode Academic Palace, there remains strong unity among the Masters once it comes to external matters.

“Even though we can fight, in the end, it all relies on the next generation.” Master Xuanyao responded regretfully, “It’s a shame that my disciple Luo Qiu is too young, if only she were a few decades older. She would have had the chance to reach the Heavenly Human Realm and experience the world. Given some time, she can definitely make those youngsters run away in terror.”

“The same goes for my disciple Luo Jing.” Lady Huandie proudly added, “Jing is steady and calm in nature, good with strategy, she is bound to achieve great things in the future.”

“Although the recent young people are all quite good, there are just too few of them.” Master Changchun said, “However, Master Yuan Shui, I heard you have already selected Wang Shouzhe’s daughter, Wang Liyao, as your direct disciple. Could it be that this child also possesses the Heavenly Arrogance Bloodline?”

When it came to Wang Liyao, Master Yuan Shui’s previously gloomy mood improved greatly as he laughed, “Of course, otherwise I wouldn’t have confirmed her as my direct disciple before she even started cultivating. This child has a Top Grade Class B talent, and possesses an exceptionally pure Primordial Water Bloodline.”

Top Grade Class B talent?

The Masters cast envious looks around. With such a bloodline talent, even among the Heavenly Arrogance, she would stand out from the crowd. This Master Yuan Shui really has some luck, he picked up a great treasure.

Not sure what kind of great luck the Changning Wang Clan has stumbled upon, one Heavenly Arrogance after another keeps emerging from their family. If the Changning Wang Clan continues to develop like this, they will definitely be an exceedingly powerful clan in the future.

…

While the Masters were discussing major events,

On Sky Lake Island,

Wang Liyao, who has been “pre-set” as Master Yuan Shui’s direct disciple, is still enjoying her tour under the guidance of Lu Xianghui, getting to know the environment, culture, and various facilities of Yuan Shui’s Heavenly Lake.

Speaking of which, Wang Liyao is quite satisfied with the environment, human touch, facilities, and other aspects of Yuan Shui’s Heavenly Lake.

I didn’t know if it was because they cultivated the elements of the Primordial Water, but many disciples from the Tian Lake School, had a temperament that was mostly polite, gentle and extraordinarily mannered.

However, this thought evaporated in Wang Liyao’s mind. Cultivating the “True Verses of Primordial Water” couldn’t possibly improve one’s temper. A representative example was her mother, Liu Ruolan.

Since childhood, Wang Liyao was never afraid of her father’s discipline, as he greatly pampered her. Her mother on the other hand, made her feel helplessly weak. When her mother’s temper flared, the whole family shivered.

Just as Wang Liyao felt she had toured enough and decided to visit the other peaks, she was interrupted.

Suddenly!

A commotion arose from the square up ahead.

“Senior Brother Lexion, give it your all, and show what you can do. If any of us from the Tian Lake School are going to be approved by Miss Nine, it has to be you.”

“Who said? In my opinion, Senior Sister Yujun is Miss Nine’s best match. Look how beautiful and gentle she is, Miss Nine would certainly be happy with her.”

“I think Senior Brother Zhenghua has the highest chance, being in the middle stage of the second level in the Spirit Platform Realm with a Primordial Water Spirit body. Moreover, he comes from a well-off family and is said to receive plenty of subsidies every year, ensuring Miss Nine will live comfortably.”

“I support Senior Brother Lexion.” “I support Senior Sister Yujun.” “I support Senior Brother Zhenghua.”

People were endlessly debating, shouting, expressing support for their idols. Granted, there were a few who represented the minority views, but relative to the three main individuals, they were in the minority.

“Miss Nine?” Wang Liyao wore a puzzled expression. Who on earth was this Miss Nine who was causing both senior brothers and sisters to simultaneously initiate “attacks” on her favor?

“Actually…” Lu Xianghui wore an embarrassed expression as he rushed to explain, “Junior Sister, please don’t misunderstand. Miss Nine is one of the youngest descendants of the Old Turtle Ancestor. She has just been born less than fifty years ago, and has already advanced to the ranks of a Level Three Spirit Beast, displaying the richness of her bloodline and the favor and indulgence she receives from the Old Turtle Ancestor.”

“Recently, the Old Turtle Ancestor stated that Miss Nine’s opportunity has arrived, and it should be with us from Tian Lake School. Therefore, all eligible senior brothers and sisters are trying to win Miss Nine’s favor. Presumably, anyone who acquires Miss Nine as a Spirit Pet will surely have a chance at becoming a direct disciple.”

As Lu Xianghui’s explanation ended, the two of them squeezed into the crowd.

They saw a few senior brothers and sisters, young in age but not low in cultivation base, surrounding a Primordial Water Spirit Tortoise as big as a small car. They were holding various rare fruits in their hands, and even Spirit Stones and Gold Tickets as “proof of wealth”, doing their best to please and flatter the Tortoise.

The Primordial Water Spirit Tortoise was lying leisurely on a “turtle basking deck” made of Primordial Water Stone bricks, occasionally enjoying a delicious treat offered by someone, then closing its eyes to catch a nap.

The Tortoise seemed to welcome everyone that showed it attention, but seemed to favor none.

But the senior brothers and sisters didn’t show the slightest anger. Instead, they were all smiling and maintaining a gentle and respectful demeanor, increasing their efforts to curry favor with the Spirit Turtle.

“This is a Primordial Water Spirit Fruit.” Senior Brother Lexion finally decided, taking out a fruit that was emitting a strong aura of Water Spirit energy from his storage ring, “As long as Miss Nine is willing to form a contract with me, I will offer her one Primordial Water Spirit Fruit every ten years in addition to the previous generous conditions.”

Primordial Water Spirit Fruit?

This is a natural treasure of the same rank as the Vermilion Fruit and worth a fortune. Once consumed, it slightly improves the bloodline. Of course, the stronger the bloodline, the less effective the Primordial Water Spirit Fruit becomes.

But from this, it was clear that Senior Brother Lexion’s family wasn’t doing too bad either.

Obviously, the Primordial Water Spirit Fruit had sparked “Miss Nine’s” interest. She raised her turtle head, looked at the spirit fruit with her big watery eyes filled with eager anticipation.

“Deal!” Senior Brother Lexion’s heart soared with joy. Although giving away the Primordial Water Spirit Fruit was a huge sacrifice, everything would be worth it if he won Miss Nine’s favor.

Suddenly!

With a tilt of her head, Miss Nine looked out at the crowd. She hesitated, then quickly swallowed the Primordial Water Spirit Fruit from Senior Brother Lexion and stretched her neck, the fruit went straight into her stomach.

Immediately, Senior Brother Lexion was overjoyed, while the other senior brothers and sisters felt a bitter disappointment. Had they known how much Miss Nine liked the Primordial Water Spirit Fruit, they would have paid any price to get one.

Just as the crowd was getting ready to congratulate Senior Brother Lexion,

Miss Nine suddenly changed her lazy attitude. She moved, quickly rushing into the crowd like a gust of wind. In the blink of an eye, she was in front of Wang Liyao, rubbing her head affectionately against her body.

What…

What on earth just happened?
