Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2064: Chapter 211: I Really Just Want a Peaceful Retirement (Part 3)

A mighty figure at the Transcendent Void Realm was silently eliminated, without even a trace of Divine Soul remaining.

The terrifying Gluttonous Phantom behind Wang Licui gradually dissipated.

With the terrifying power of absorption gone, the items forcibly drawn in dropped from mid-air, littering the ground.

The surroundings suddenly quieted down.

After a while, Lan Wanyi came to her senses, dazedly saying, “Is it really over this time?”

“Yes.”

Wang Licui nodded.

When she acted, driven by the heat of the moment, she felt nothing. But now, having truly killed this Demon King, not only Lan Wanyi was in disbelief, even she felt somewhat disoriented.

However, now was not the time for sentiments.

Taking a brief breath, she called Lan Wanyi and the Trashy Rat over to start cleaning up the battlefield, eradicating traces, while thoroughly removing all evidence related to the two and the rat.

She understood well that this matter was too significant, involving the death of Young Master Ming Shura and the theft of the treasure desired by the Demon Lord. No matter how daring she was, she dared not let the word leak that it was done by her and Wan’er.

Otherwise, who knows what the furious old Demon Lord might do to her or the Wang family in retaliation.

Therefore, making everything vanish into dust was certainly much safer.

Though, fortunately, this Transcendent Void Realm powerhouse’s strength was mediocre, possibly due to poverty, he lacked many means to save himself. The only thing of real value was a Demonic Artifact.

It was a Demon Sword-type Dao-level Item, but when ambushed and heavily injured, this Demon Sword Dao Artifact didn’t show much utility, completely suppressed by the Half-immortal Crescent Blade, leaving it rather unimpressive.

As for this time’s greatest merit, it of course was the “True Immortal Strike.”

In the Divine Martial Military Officer Training Academy, [True Immortal Strike] was a prize within the intermediate reward pool, intended as a lifesaving card for outstanding elite students. After all, judging by the difficulty of the academy’s exam checkpoints, students who successfully pass the elite mode were likely to grow into high-ranking officers at the Transcendent Void Realm, and even in the Divine Martial Dynasty, were extremely valuable talents.

Regarding nurturing and protecting talents, the Saint Emperor had never been stingy.

Yet no matter how rich the imagination of the Saint Emperor was, he never imagined these rewards would one day be schemed away by the Wang family, almost entirely collected up in a short period.

Wang Licui hadn’t counted how many True Immortal Strikes the family got, but there were certainly dozens.

As the pillar of the family, and an elite of the family’s second sequence, her having a True Immortal Strike for protection was perfectly justifiable.

If used appropriately, this item could slay the Transcendent Void Realm!

“Come, come, both of you come over, don’t force me to act~” While halfway through cleaning the battlefield, Wang Licui sensed something amiss and called over the only two items left behind by the gray-robed old man, a Divine treasure level storage ring, and that Demon Sword Dao Artifact.

They had long witnessed Wang Licui’s formidable strength, greatly fearing her. Though terrified, upon her summons, they trembled and cautiously flew over, not daring to flee.

“Where is that old man’s Transcendent Void Codex?” Wang Licui flipped through the dismembered corpse, infuriated, “Could it be that the Transcendent Void Codex managed to escape?”

The Wang family, although possessing quite a few Transcendent Void Codexes, considered it their family’s legacy, never feeling it enough.

“Well… The Demon King Mo Luo already completed the Void Transition, with the Codex passed on to the next inheritor.” The Demon Sword Dao Artifact meekly explained, “I am retained temporarily for executing missions.”

A Transcendent Void Realm having completed the Void Transition?

Wang Licui was immediately disappointed.

Isn’t that similar to Emperor Longchang? No wonder his combat capacity was considerably weaker, even in dire moments he didn’t utilize the Codex for battle, causing many pre-arranged tactics of hers to go unused.

The Transcendent Void Codex, besides being a tool for legacy, generally enhances its owner. Once wielded alongside in battle, it allows easier manipulation of Heavenly Dao Laws, empowering the Law’s Power, reducing the consumption of God Sense.

Of course, the Codex itself lacks combat ability; it merely provides an amplification effect.

However, this amplification is proportional, thus in Transcendent Void Realm level battles, it significantly impacts combat capacity.

Take Emperor Longchang, lacking the Codex and the Azure Dragon Sword, his strength diminishes severely.

The spoils of war were missing a Codex, which disappointed Wang Licui somewhat. With a discerning eye, she observed the Demon Sword Dao Artifact saying, “Your power doesn’t seem too great, does it? During the fight, didn’t even dare clash directly with my Crescent Blade, a bit too cowardly, huh?”

“…” Demon Sword Dao Artifact.

It almost rebuked right away, but changed to flattering words, “Honorable Immortal, I’m merely an ordinary Demonic Artifact, how could I compare to the esteemed Crescent Miss? She is a Half Immortal Item, and traverses the mighty path of Half Immortal~~”

“Alright, I’ll reluctantly accept you for now.” Wang Licui contemplated saying, “Once the storm settles, I might go to Duobao Pavilion Headquarters to check about selling you, or let the Immortal Palace recycle.”
