Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1128: Chapter 83: A Small Display of Proficiency! Suppressing the Peak Purple Abode_2 Chapter 1128: Chapter 83: A Small Display of Proficiency! Suppressing the Peak Purple Abode_2 But that howl stopped abruptly halfway through as it swallowed the more imposing latter half of its roar, turning it into a docile “woo” before prostrating on the ground, head pressed against the earth, slowly shrinking back into its cave.

There was no choice, for it had seen a dragon emerge from the unidentified flying object.

As the dragon faced the wind, its form expanded larger and larger, instantly transforming into a seven or eight zhang long Azure Water Dragon.

Its entire body was covered in azure scales that shimmered like jade, the edges sharp as knives, exuding a sense of strength in its robust body; its talons radiated a chilling cold light, and golden dragon horns atop its head, resembling deer antlers, emitted a terrifying dragon aura, its majestic presence suppressing everything around it.

“Aooo~”

A high-pitched dragon’s roar suddenly sounded.

Joining it was the angry voice of a loli: “Who’s the cowardly thing hiding in the shadows, daring to ambush your Grand Aunt Liling?!”

Her voice had such penetrating power that it made the very space tremble.

“Hmph! Just a seventh-level young dragon, so arrogant even as death approaches.”

An old man’s voice with a foreign accent echoed from all directions.

The voice was elusive, making it impossible to discern his true whereabouts. Clearly, he was a master of stealth.

“Woo~~!”

The air vibrated with a high-frequency whistle that was almost inaudible to human ears, rapidly spreading out.

The next moment,

a dense swarm of bugs rushed toward Wang Lilong.

Each insect, about the size of a fist, had a carapace covered with dense white spots, with formidable maws robust and sharp and limbs ending in razor-like pincers—an image of ferocity, the signature fearsome insect of the Barbarian Gu Clan from the Southern Frontier: the Bone-devouring Bug.

Alone, a Bone-devouring Bug wasn’t much of a threat, but once they gathered in large numbers, they became immensely fearsome, consuming all animals in their path, leaving not even a sliver of bone behind.

“Ling’er, fall back; you’re not adept at handling vile insects,” a composed and gentle voice sounded as a “young man” with a majestic presence stepped out into the air from the flying carriage.

With a flick of his wrist, a splendid tree appeared out of nowhere in the center of the valley, glowing green.

It was a massive tree with a complex root system, almost thick enough that ten people could not encircle it with their arms, the trunk was coiled and strong, and its lush green canopy spread like an umbrella overhead, covering the entire flying carriage.

A gust of wind passed, and its expansive leaves danced, exuding vitality; though just a single tree, it gave the impression of being in a forest.

In an instant, its complex and sturdy roots plunged into the soil below, burrowing deep into the ground.

Simultaneously, rich life spirit energy spread, and instantly around it, a Life Domain formed. Inside the domain, even breathing felt like imbibing the essence of life.

This tree was naturally Wang Shouzhe’s life-bound Immortal Plant—Wang Lixian.

After a year and more of continuous nurturing by Wang Shouzhe, Wang Lixian had reached the fifth level, comparable to a mid-stage Celestial being or Profound Martial Realm Cultivator.

Its Life Domain had seen significant enhancement, and although constrained by its level, it couldn’t match the Great Divine Power of Realm Cultivators, it was still far stronger than the average Small Divine Power, possessing many extraordinary uses. Its strength could be deemed quite formidable.

As Lixian unfolded, Wang Lilong also took the opportunity to retreat behind the tree crown after baiting the enemy. She curled up her dragon body, head held high, roared, “Come out, you old sneaky coward, come fight your Grand Aunt Liling~~~”

Her provocative and showy posture was incredibly annoying.

Without further ado, the swarm of bugs surged forward.

Wang Lixian, though unhurried, excitedly waved her branches, spreading circles of life energy, scattering all sorts of strange seeds.

Wang Shouzhe also cooperated by stirring up revitalizing Mysterious Energy, wrapping around those seeds.

The seeds took root upon hitting the ground, and under the tandem stimulation of energy from Wang Shouzhe and Lixian, they rapidly grew into variously shaped plants in just a few breaths.

Among them, the most numerous was the improved Fire Dragon Fruit.

Despite her young age and inability to speak clearly, Wang Lixian’s appetite for firepower seemed insatiable.

During those idle days in Return to Dragon City and inside her Carry-on Cave Mansion, aside from listening to stories, she spent nearly every day and night entangling Wang Shouzhe to improve the Fire Dragon Fruit, with a single goal: increased firepower.

“Yi yi ya ya~”

Wang Lixian waved a branch, shrilly sounding the signal for attack.

“Pop pop pop!” The Fire Dragon Fruit spat out seeds the size of fists, raining down on the swarm of Bone-devouring Bugs like a downpour.

Boom boom boom!

The violent explosions rocked the valley, sending rubble tumbling.

The sky lit up with blossoms of fire from the explosions, brilliant as rosy clouds. The Bone-devouring Bugs were either consumed by flames or stunned by the shock waves, falling in droves like heavy rain.

“Yi yi yi yi ya ya ya~~~” (Author’s translation: Explosions are art)

Wang Lixian’s voice was full of excitement, as generations of improved Fire Dragon Fruits had become much more powerful.
