Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 711: Chapter 90: Wouldn’t it be better if Wang Shouzhe were still the Prefectural Governor?_1

…

After ascending to the Heavenly Human Realm, Liu Ruolan’s bloodline had already awakened to the fifth layer, becoming a Taoist Body, greatly enhancing her compatibility with Elemental Water Aura.

Moreover, there were countless Water Spirit Veins hidden within the sea. The concentration of Water Aura above the sea was significantly higher than that over the rivers and lakes on land.

In such an environment, the power that Liu Ruolan’s bloodline could exert was quite formidable.

This sea was her domain.

“Boom~”

… Great waves rose, stacking up like a thousand layers.

Liu Ruolan walked on waves, her clothes fluttering. A faintly visible light blue arc hovered around her. This was an aura arc formed by the Water Aura, which had concentrated to a certain degree and automatically chased her.

With a wave of her arm, a wave came roaring, transforming into a towering giant palm that swatted at Cao Bangyan, immediately engulfing him.

This was a battle without suspense.

She didn’t even need to manifest her Dharma Shadow. Using only ordinary moves, she had rendered Cao Bangyan incapable of fighting back.

Meanwhile, from within the cabin, another Old Ancestor, a Heavenly Human Realm cultivator flew out. It was Xu Beichen, the Old Ancestor of the Changning Xu Family.

Having hid in the cabin for so long, he was very eager to join the fight. The moment he stepped out, he hurried to Old Ancestor Ruhong: “Brother Ruhong, you and I should team up. I’ll take forty percent of the merits. How about it?”

According to Wang Shouzhe’s tactical arrangement principle, he always gave his allies a wide berth. Xu Beichen was included for security reasons, and also to give the Changning Xu family a sense of participation and share a part of the merits.

It couldn’t be helped; the relationship between the Changning Xu and Wang families had greatly deepened due to marriage. The legitimate daughter of the Changning Xu family, Xu Pingting, was the wife of the legitimate son of the Wang family, and also had given birth to the current legitimate grandson.

The bloodline fusion of the two families had reached its peak.

The Changning Xu family was growing at an incredible pace. Originally a large clan, they had gained a lot of resources, their second and third Old Ancestors had already entered the accelerated nurturing sequence.

According to their plan, they would step into the ranks of Rank Six Prominent Families in at most fifty to sixty years.

However, Old Ancestor Ruhong was no pushover, he confidently declared: “Thirty percent, or I prefer to fight slowly. Given time, I can suppress Nie Long.”

Back in the day, after his fortuitous encounter surviving a shipwreck, his bloodline talent had actually already reached the Heavenly Proud Level, but he hid it, even deliberately acting old, only showing his tremendous strength at the right time.

Looking at his appearance of a “white-bearded old man”, could you imagine that his actual age was even younger than Fang Youan when he first appeared as a handsome young hero?

If he were to remove his old disguise and dress up, he would at most look like a handsome middle-aged man.

The Chen Clan members’ appearances were not bad, just look at Chen Fangjie. Purely in terms of appearance, he was only half a notch below Wang Shouzhe.

“Fine. Thirty percent it is.” Xu Beichen knew he was at a disadvantage on the sea surface and didn’t mind the reduced share. He immediately joined the battle with an excited face.

Even with only thirty percent of merit points, it would be a huge profit.

Their negotiation annoyed Nie Long on the other side to no end. They were treating him like food on the plate, who were they looking down upon?!

However, no matter how angry he was, he was powerless. Who could deny that situation trumps everything?

“Damn Cao Bangyan, for being so foolish, being manipulated from beginning to end without knowing it!” Nie Long was resisting bitterly, against the bombardment from the two Heavenly Human Realm cultivators, and his resentment for Cao Bangyan and the Cao family deepened.

“Nie Long, if you surrender, there’s still a chance for survival.” Chen Ruhong said loudly, “The Cao family is simply treating you like a dog. At this point, according to the Daqian Law, you still have a chance to atone for your sins through merits, why would you sacrifice yourself for the Cao Family?”

“What do you know? If it wasn’t for Lord Cao’s rescue, I, Nie Long, would have been long dead.” Nie Long’s red beard were all bristling, his big copper bell-like eyes were full of fury, and also a touch of sorrow, “Never mind~ Today, consider it as me paying back the life-saving grace of Lord Cao.”

Saying this, he let out a huge roar. The knife came out like a dragon, slashing directly at Old Ancestor Ruhong and Xu Beichen. The knife’s aura was wild, carrying a fierceness as if it would tear the sky apart.

This battle lasted a quarter of an hour.

Under the joint hands of Chen Ruhong and Xu Beichen, Nie Long was eventually slain on the Qingluo Sea.

As the battle ended, both Old Ancestors were somewhat exhausted. They looked at each other, not expecting a pirate to show such steadfast spirit, refusing to surrender and betray the Cao family until death.

There was a hint of respect for this person in their eyes.

As for Cao Bangyan, after being defeated by Liu Ruolan, he was captured not long after. It was somewhat unjust for him. With his cultivation base of the third level of the Heavenly Proud Level, if he had gone all out against Liu Ruolan, although he would still lose, he could at least hold on for a little while.

Unfortunately, he was too reckless, his strength was not fully utilized, and he was easily defeated.

At the same time.

The naval battle was also quickly reaching its conclusion. Under the circumstances where both Heavenly Human Realm leaders had been defeated, the pirates lost the will to fight, and quickly surrendered under the leadership of some Spirit Platform Realm leaders.
