Protect Our Clan Leader

...

"Zuoqiu lad, relax your body!"

Alarm bells rang in Elder Jiang’s mind. Despite the considerable depletion of his Divine Soul Power, he immediately controlled Zuoqiu Qingyun’s body, and desperately spurred his Small Divine Power, attempting to dodge the Sword Intent with speed.

However, Elder Jiang was now merely a Spirit Remnant. Despite using the Small Divine Power through his Divine Soul Power, constrained by Zuoqiu Qingyun’s strength, the power actually brought into play was less than a tenth of the true Small Divine Power. How could he escape it?

Before the brilliant light could escape a few feet away, the chilling Sword Intent had already caught up, falling directly on the strange peach-red light.

The vibrant light burst at that instant. The dazzling radiance almost illuminated half of the sky.

Half a beat later, a deafening roar came from the peach grove, as if thunder was exploding, as if the Tianhe river had burst its banks, echoing through the night.

What came next was the energy shock wave that attacked like a surging wave rolling over the area.

The entire peach forest started swaying wildly. Nearby peach trees were uprooted entirely, and even those far away had countless branches sheared off. Numerous flower petals were torn down, dancing wildly in the sky.

Wang Shouzhe, dozens of feet away, was affected to a significant extent. He had no choice but to direct the vines to shield himself in the center.

After the shock wave passed, a huge crater appeared in the peach forest.

In the center of the crater, lay the bisected body of Zuoqiu Qingyun. Blood gushed out from the severed part of his body, staining the ground around him red in mere moments.

In the night sky, Elder Longyan had already withdrawn her sword after executing the attack.

Under the rustling night wind, she was floating in the air, her clothes fluttering, looking like an ethereal being descended from an immortal palace, untouched and inviolable.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment.

At the bottom of the crater, Zuoqiu Qingyun, being a strong cultivator in the advanced stage of the Spirit Platform Realm, still teemed with vitality and was not completely dead.

Blood kept pouring out of his throat, his bloodshot eyes were fixed on Elder Longyan, full of disbelief: "Gr, Great Heavenly Proud... you are actually the Great Heavenly..."

Only the Great Heavenly Proud could slay him with a single stroke of the sword.

Such a pity.

No one would answer his question.

Before he could finish speaking, he rolled his eyes and lost all life.

"Damn it! I just finally revived my Divine Soul and was preparing to cultivate a new body, but I encountered this disaster!" From within Zuoqiu Qingyun’s Spiritual Platform, the fragmented divine soul of Elder Jiang was both terrified and furious.

However, he wouldn’t die alongside Zuoqiu Qingyun.

Taking advantage of Zuoqiu Qingyun’s Spiritual Platform still not collapsing and the consciousness not completely dissipating, he hurriedly detached and latched onto a jade pendant on his waist.

The previous battle had consumed too much of his Divine Soul Power. At this moment, his fragmented Divine Soul was extremely weak. But even so, he once again stimulated the Divine Soul Power, surrounded the jade pendant, and hovered low over the ground to flee.

The peach forest was lush, with weeds everywhere, and the jade pendant was very small. Covered by the weeds, it went unnoticed.

"Hehehehe~ No matter how cunning Wang Shouzhe is, he certainly wouldn’t expect my existence." Inside the jade pendant, Elder Jiang sneered non-stop, harboring resentment in his heart, "A gentleman’s revenge is not too late even after ten years. When I escape from here, find a suitable body, and succeed in cultivating again, it won’t be too late to seek revenge against Wang Shouzhe."

However.

He had only flown a dozen feet stealthily before being whipped back by a vine that sprouted out from who knows where, and then was stepped on by a foot, directly pressed into the flower mud.

"As expected." Wang Shouzhe’s voice came from above his head, "I’ve always felt that Zuoqiu Qingyun is very strange, and indeed, there is something weird about him."

How could it be?!

Elder Jiang was so shocked that he was completely dumbfounded.

After two to three moments, he then suddenly reacted, both shocked and angry, struggling violently: "How is it possible? How could you find me?! With your age and experience, how could you know about such sophisticated and clandestine matters as ’Spirit Parasitism’?"

The voice of the Divine Soul resonated through the air, sounding like a human voice. Only, the voice was slightly echoes due to lack of cohesion, not entirely clear.

Wang Shouzhe let out a sneer.

Indeed, he had never heard of anything like "Spirit Parasitism" in this Profound Martial world.

But he had read many fantasy novels in his last life. What with all the old-gentleman stories, system novels, and various sign-in quests... he had read at least several hundred, if not a thousand.

With all the mystery and noticeable changes of Zuoqiu Qingyun, a mere mid-late stage cultivator of the Spirit Platform Realm, he could suddenly burst out with the capabilities to battle on par with the Heavenly Human Realm.

If he were the Great Heavenly Proud, it would make sense with the advantage of his bloodline but it was evident that what he was using was not Bloodline Power, implying there must be some other special power.

With Wang Shouzhe’s knowledge and caution, how could he not be more vigilant?

However...

"Turns out, it’s the outdated old-gentleman genre. I thought it was a system~" Wang Shouzhe glanced at the jade pendant and couldn’t help shaking his head, slightly disappointed.

Systems are very useful.

Just look at their Wang family. Since they got the System "Little Snow", not only has the internal management efficiency greatly improved, but the storage, sorting, and usage of data information have also become a lot more convenient.
