Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2201: Chapter 447: The Mystery of Liu Ruolan’s Origins

…

“Do you know that the girl named Wang Licui is one of my clan members?” Wang Shouzhe did not respond to his loyalty but had a hint of coldness at the corner of his mouth. “Moreover, her bloodline talent is top-notch, even stronger than yours. If anything happens to her…”

“Ah?”

Si Wuyou’s face turned pale, cold sweat continuously sliding down his forehead, and a deep fear rose within him.

Earlier, he was calm because he was sure that the Immortal Supreme would be intimidated by the Sacred Race backing him and wouldn’t dare to kill him.

But the situation is different now. If this Saint acts in the name of avenging his clan member and kills him, even his family’s Old Ancestor, upon learning the truth, would have no choice but to swallow the pain.

He hurriedly defended himself, “Saint, Saint’s Highness, I’m wronged, I am truly wronged. That silly, no, Lady Licui attacked with a space tunnel right from the start…”

“Enough, I told you, I am not a Saint, just call me Gongzi.” Wang Shouzhe interrupted him impatiently. “Tell me the details of what happened at that time, don’t leave out a single detail.”

“Yes, yes, yes, Gongzi Shouzhe.”

Si Wuyou wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, dared not offer further excuses, and instead narrated the events thoroughly.

In order to absolve himself of responsibility, he was extremely detailed.

Wang Shouzhe half-closed his eyes, as if simulating the situation in his mind.

After a moment, he let out a long breath, “That space tunnel leads to the Realm of Ruin, and the location is near the Xinluo Immortal Dynasty? Thus, it should not be a major problem. Licui has plenty of protective items on her, including a piece of the Saint Emperor’s Protection, which can resist a True Immortal for a moment during a critical time.”

Saint Emperor’s Protection?

Si Wuyou felt a sense of relief while showing envy on his face.

From Gongzi Shouzhe’s description, one can infer that this is likely a consumable of the same level as the Xuan Water Sacred Shield refined by their family’s Old Ancestor. That item contains a breath of the Sacred Spirit from the Old Ancestor, which can manifest as a shield and resist a True Immortal for a moment.

However, the Xuan Water Sacred Shield is extremely difficult to refine, causing great strain on the Old Ancestor, thus making it a top strategic resource within the clan, not easily bestowed. At any rate, Si Wuyou currently has not qualified to receive such treasure.

Thinking of this, Si Wuyou couldn’t help but sigh again, truly amazed at the profound and formidable foundation of Gongzi Shouzhe’s family, as even Licui, who doesn’t have a supreme bloodline, is equipped with such a treasure, not to mention her Yanyue Blade, which seems to be a half-immortal artifact.

Unconsciously, Si Wuyou conjured up a mysterious and powerful, rather affluent image of a top-tier prominent family in his mind.

“Nevertheless, even so, this Gongzi still needs to find Licui quickly to ensure her safety.” Wang Shouzhe said while looking at Si Wuyou, his expression cold, “Show me your Spatial Transfer Array Plate.”

“Yes, Gongzi Shouzhe.”

Si Wuyou hurriedly took out the plate and handed it to Wang Shouzhe, though his expression showed slight distress, “But Gongzi, this Spatial Transfer Array Plate suffered some damage during a space storm and can no longer be activated.”

Wang Shouzhe took the plate, looked at it carefully, and indeed there was a tiny crack on the ancient plate.

He frowned and asked, “Can you repair it?”

“Uh… I cannot.” Si Wuyou said awkwardly, “My skills in formations, talismans, and artifact refining are only at the beginner level.”

“…” Wang Shouzhe gazed at him for a long moment before quietly putting away the Spatial Transfer Array Plate, “I’ll have someone repair it and hopefully get it done soon.”

Si Wuyou’s eyelid twitched, and he couldn’t help but stretch out his helpless hand, “Gongzi Shouzhe… this plate…”

“What use do you have for it?” Wang Shouzhe glanced at him, his voice somewhat cold, “Can you repair it?”

“Yes, yes, yes, I’ll trouble Gongzi Shouzhe with this matter.” Si Wuyou chuckled awkwardly twice and quickly changed the topic, “Gongzi Shouzhe, during the search for space nodes, I also found a strange place. I discovered some ancient space shards as if there was once a fixed space transfer array at those nodes, but it was somehow deliberately destroyed. Could it be the doing of the Xuanling Saintess back then?”

“Oh?” Wang Shouzhe was moved in his heart and slightly frowned, “Earlier you mentioned the Xuanling Saintess, why haven’t I heard of this person before?”

“It’s unknown to Gongzi, but this woman is a figure from ten thousand years ago, later her information was blocked by the big shots.” Si Wuyou explained, “Unless one intentionally researches that period of history, they wouldn’t know about the Xuanling Saintess.”

“How much do you know about the Xuanling Saintess?” Wang Shouzhe sipped his tea and asked casually.

Due to the scarcity of information, my understanding of the Xuanling Saintess is also limited.” Si Wuyou naturally spoke without reservation, “Based on what’s recorded in ancient texts, what is known is that this Saintess possessed extraordinary qualifications, inheriting the codex in the Purple Abode, the Immortal Scripture in the Divine Power territory, and during the Transcendent Void Realm, she even surpassed many competitors to inherit the Yuan Water Sacred Image. Upon reaching the True Immortal Realm, she competed for the position of Taozi at the Primordial Taoist Palace against other Saints and Saintesses at the time. Her chances were quite hopeful. However, she mysteriously disappeared while chasing thieves, and thus missed the Taozi competition. I suspect she came to this little world back then, but for some unknown reason couldn’t return and instead perished here.”
