Protect Our Patriarch

Book 2: Chapter 99: Wang Shouzhe! How could it be you!

Despite the formidable strength of the Heavenly Realm Blood Nest Warrior, the young master dealt with it effortlessly.

His Yinsha Xuan Corpse, which he had refined, roared continuously, blocking the Blood Nest Warrior. His Yinsha Demon Blade transformed into a series of blade lights, condensed with the power of Yinsha.

The dark blade lights could cut through gold and jade, continuously opening wounds on the Blood Nest Warrior.

The Yinsha Sect was the number one sect in the far west, and as a direct disciple of the sect, the young master's cultivation method naturally belonged to the top of the sect. It was not on the same level as those wild cultivators. Even a casual move was extremely powerful.

No matter how the Blood Nest Warrior struggled, it was in vain.

In just the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the towering Blood Nest Warrior fell to the ground, dead!

As its body twisted, a Marriage Blood Gu the size of a chicken egg burst out, flapping its wings and rushing towards the young master.

It was clear that this was a more powerful Marriage Blood Gu.

And it had chosen the young master as its new host target.

The young master sneered, "A mere Marriage Blood Gu King dares to covet my noble body."

With that, he flicked his sleeve.

A powerful energy sent the Marriage Blood Gu King flying backwards, unable to stabilize its form.

Yin Jiu hurriedly stepped forward, took out a specially made jade box, and used his old trick to lure the Marriage Blood Gu King into the box.

However, this Marriage Blood Gu King was not quiet. It banged against the jade box, as if trying to break free.

Yin Jiu quickly infused his Xuan Qi to suppress the Marriage Blood Gu King, finally calming it down.

Huangfu Jin Huan, who was standing by, had a heated look in his eyes.

This was the Marriage Blood Gu King that the young master had mentioned.

It was so powerful that if an ordinary Qi Refining Realm cultivator successfully changed their bloodline through it, their bloodline aptitude could directly reach the top grade.

Once the bloodline aptitude reached the top grade, even if it was the lowest top grade C, they could awaken the second bloodline during the Qi Refining Realm and become a true genius.

Such a genius, even if they entered the Purple Mansion Academy, would be coveted by those superior people, and could easily become a direct disciple. In the future, they would also be expected by the Purple Mansion.

Previously, the young master had used a Marriage Blood Gu King to tempt Huangfu's Clan to become his true subordinate. This shows how precious a Marriage Blood Gu King is.

"Young Master, your Marriage Blood Gu King." Yin Jiu respectfully handed the jade box to the young master, but his eyes were also burning with eager light.

It was clear that he also wanted this Marriage Blood Gu King.

"Yin Jiu, you are a Lingtai Realm double medium bloodline, and you are already a core disciple of the Yinsha Sect. Once you advance to the Heavenly Realm, you will be a triple medium bloodline Heavenly Mirror." The young master took the jade box and said indifferently, "This Marriage Blood Gu King is unlikely to elevate your bloodline from the current double medium to triple bloodline. The benefits and risks are not proportional, this Marriage Blood Gu King is not suitable for you."

"Yes, Young Master."

Yin Jiu's expression was slightly disappointed.

If he was still a Qi Refining Realm cultivator, he could rely on this Marriage Blood Gu King to directly upgrade to a double bloodline, and then rely on the opportunity of advancing to the Lingtai Realm to transform his bloodline into a triple bloodline.

His entire life would be different then, and he would become a direct disciple of the Yinsha Sect like the young master.

In this world, it is truly a different life with each additional bloodline. The earlier the bloodline aptitude is improved, the better.

Unfortunately, when he was in the Qi Refining Realm, he was just a small figure. Who would be willing to give him a Marriage Blood Gu King to use? In the end, he and this Marriage Blood Gu King were not destined for each other.

"Don't be disappointed. To become a genius, one must have both fate and opportunity. Some people are born geniuses, while others become geniuses because of their incredible luck. If geniuses were easy to come by, then direct disciples wouldn't be valuable." The young master said, "But this time you have done a great service for me. I will cover the cost of the Ascension Pill in your resources for advancing to the Heavenly Realm."

Yin Jiu was overjoyed and quickly bowed deeply, "Yin Jiu thanks the Young Master."

For a Lingtai Realm cultivator to advance to the Heavenly Realm, apart from bloodline talent and other factors, the most critical thing is the Ascension Pill. Even though he is a core disciple of the Yinsha Sect, without a family foundation, it would be extremely difficult for him to accumulate enough for an Ascension Pill.

With the young master's Ascension Pill, he could gather the rest of the cultivation and advancement resources with a little effort.

While the two were talking.

Huaye Ancestor asked for help from the side, "Young Master, I can only hold this Blood Nest Warrior, but I can't kill it. Please lend me a hand."

A hint of dissatisfaction appeared in the young master's eyes.

This Huaye Ancestor was almost reaching the middle stage of the Heavenly Realm, but he couldn't handle a Blood Nest Warrior in the early stage of the Heavenly Realm. He was just a Heavenly Realm cultivator from a local area, not comparable to the core disciples of the Yinsha Sect.

"Go~"

He sent the Yinsha Xuan Corpse to assist Huaye Ancestor in dealing with the Blood Nest Warrior with a hint of impatience, then ignored him and flew onto the altar.

The blood-colored altar was several feet high. The young master walked in the air, his figure graceful, like a leisurely stroll. In a few steps, he had landed on the altar.

In the center of the altar, a blood-colored spherical object was quietly suspended in the formation.

The object was only the size of a palm, and amidst the interplay of light and shadow, one could vaguely see a worm-like shadow inside, emitting waves of blue-black icy aura.

Compared to the Blood Gu King in the wedding dress obtained earlier, the insect shadow in this blood-colored sphere exuded a much stronger and more ferocious aura. The difference was as vast as that between a rabbit and a wolf.

"Good, good, good, as I expected, this blood nest base has two top-grade spirit veins of Xuan Ice and Yin Sha, with the purpose of cultivating the Blood Gu King of the Ice Sha attribute." A flash of fanaticism passed through the young master's eyes, "In this way, there is hope for my Yin Sha spirit body bloodline to be further enhanced."

He was already a direct disciple, the pride of the Yin Sha sect, with an extraordinary bloodline talent. If he could take another step forward, he would be considered a standout even among the direct disciples, with the potential to step into the true upper echelons of the Yin Sha sect and become a powerful figure.

However, he was already at the fourth level of the spirit body bloodline, and naturally, he couldn't advance to the fifth level with this alone. But even if he could advance one or two steps on the basis of the fourth level bloodline, such as reaching the middle or high stage of the fourth level bloodline, he would be satisfied.

Moreover, as long as he obtained the method of cultivating the Blood Gu King in the wedding dress from this blood nest base, he could naturally find a way to create the second and third Blood Gu Kings in the wedding dress. By then, would the fifth level bloodline still be far away?

"Warning! Warning!" The Spirit Artifact issued a sharp warning, "Intruder, this mid-level Ice Sha Blood Gu in the wedding dress is an important property of the 3795th blood nest base, please leave immediately, otherwise we will take forceful measures!"

The Blood Gu King in the wedding dress, which was only considered mid-level by the Spirit Artifact, was highly valued by everyone else. It was clear how powerful the Basalt cultivators were during the era of the Shenwu Dynasty. Even a suppressed rebel organization should not be underestimated.

"Spirit Artifact, don't issue such foolish warnings." The young master sneered, "If you had any forceful measures, you would have used them already. Accept your fate, both you and this Ice Sha Blood Gu King in the wedding dress will become my personal property."

He had been plotting for so many years, and had put in so much effort, wasn't it all for today?

Immediately.

The Yin Sha Demon Blade in his hand slashed continuously, quickly breaking through the formation outside the blood-colored sphere, and took out the blood-colored sphere inside.

"Hahahaha~ Ji Tianyin, Linghu Wuji, you look down on me. Wait until my bloodline reaches the high stage of the fourth level, then I will suppress you." He stared at the blood-colored sphere in his hand, his eyes were as if he was looking at a treasure, filled with both fear and fanatic excitement.

Just as the young master was in a state of fanaticism.

Suddenly!

There was a change in the battlefield where Huaye Ancestor was.

Originally, with the help of the young master's Yin Sha Xuan corpse, Huaye Ancestor had already gained the upper hand and severely injured the blood nest warrior at the Heavenly Man realm.

Unexpectedly.

Just as the Yin Sha Xuan corpse rushed forward, preparing to kill the blood nest warrior completely, Huaye Ancestor's body suddenly burst into flames, and his formidable power suddenly erupted.

At the same time, the spirit-level fire spear in his hand suddenly swept across.

In the blazing firelight, the majestic Red Dragon Xuan Qi gathered at the tip of the spear, transforming into a red fire dragon that roared out.

The target was the head of the Yin Sha Xuan corpse!

The Yin Sha Xuan corpse was simply following the young master's orders and assisting Huaye Ancestor in battle. With its simple intelligence, how could it have anticipated that Huaye Ancestor would suddenly attack it?

"Boom!"

In the violent explosion, the head of the Yin Sha Xuan corpse was directly blown up by the red fire dragon, exploding into several pieces.

Then, with a wave of his spear, Huaye Ancestor quickly knocked down the severely injured blood nest warrior and severed its legs.

In just an instant, both the Yin Sha Xuan corpse and the blood nest warrior were taken care of by Huaye Ancestor.

The young master's face changed, and he shouted angrily, "Huaye, have you gone mad?"

"Hahahaha~ Young Master, our noble Heavenly Man family of the Great Qian, how could we really cooperate with your evil ways?" Since he had already made his move, Huaye Ancestor no longer had any previous restraint and let out a hearty laugh, "Before, I was just playing along with you."

In the raging flames, he stood with his spear, clear and refreshed, with a majestic spirit, truly awe-inspiring, with the aura of a fire god descending to earth.

"Good, good, good! Truly unpredictable. I admit that I underestimated you." The young master laughed in anger, but his eyes seemed to freeze, extremely cold, "However, do you think that by killing my Yin Sha Xuan corpse, I have no means to deal with you? Humph, you are underestimating me, the pride of the Yin Sha sect."

"Young Master is joking." Huaye Ancestor's smile did not diminish, "I, Huaye, am just a mere ancestor of a small town, how dare I compare myself with the pride of the Yin Sha sect? Today, since I dare to scheme against you, how could I not be prepared? Yuanwu Ancestor, isn't it time for you to show up?"

Yuanwu Ancestor?

The young master's face changed drastically.

He never expected that Huaye Ancestor had actually invited another ancestor, and what was most hateful was that he hadn't even noticed.

At this moment.

Among the few followers brought by Huangfu Jin, an inconspicuous old servant slowly straightened up and walked out.

He swept away his previous decrepit appearance, and as he slowly paced, a strong Heavenly Man realm aura spread from his body.He stared coldly at the young master, "As my little brother Huaye said, we, the noble celestial families of Daqian, would never become puppets to your Yinsha Sect."

"Greetings to Ancestor Yuanwu." Huangfu Jin's face was filled with excitement as he bowed to Ancestor Yuanwu, "I apologize for having you pretend to be an old servant earlier. I was terrified and I hope you can forgive me."

"No harm done. What are minor details in the face of great matters?" Ancestor Yuanwu waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mind. Despite still wearing the clothes of an old servant, his demeanor as a celestial realm powerhouse was awe-inspiring, not to be underestimated.

Ancestor Yuanwu was the ancestor of the Xiao Clan in Anyuanwei. Anyuanwei and Changningwei were neighboring cities, and their celestial families often intermarried. Huangfu Jin's legal wife was the legitimate daughter of the Xiao Clan, making the two families extremely close.

Their relationship was somewhat similar to that between the Wang's Clan of Ping'an and the Liu's Clan of Shanyin.

Only such close in-laws would still be willing to help when the Huangfu's Clan was in such decline. During this period, Huangfu Jin had been raising funds from various sources, mainly relying on the Xiao Clan.

The Xiao Clan was an even older celestial family than the Huangfu's Clan. Ancestor Yuanwu, who was just over three hundred years old, had already completed the celestial transition. The current Xiao Clan was in a prosperous state with two celestial beings.

Moreover, Ancestor Yuanwu's strength had reached the mid-celestial realm, surpassing even Ancestor Huaye at his peak.

Of course.

It took Huangfu Jin a great deal of effort to get Ancestor Yuanwu on board, even promising many future benefits and costs. Otherwise, even the celestial ancestor of an in-law family would not take such a risk.

"Good! Good! Good!" The young master laughed in anger, "Well done, Ancestor Huaye, well done, Ancestor Yuanwu. I admit I underestimated you. However, it won't be easy for you two to take me down!"

"Let me, Xiao, show you the power of a direct disciple of the Yinsha Sect!" Ancestor Yuanwu, a veteran celestial realm powerhouse, was naturally extremely proud.

He had only chosen not to attend the academy because he needed to inherit the family business. Otherwise, if he had chosen to develop in the academy, he would at least be a core disciple, and his status would not be much lower than that of the current young master.

Immediately.

Ancestor Yuanwu swiped his storage ring, and a shining war blade appeared in his hand.

"This blade is called 'Gale Blade', it is a treasure passed down in my Xiao Clan." He said, stroking the blade with a serious look, "My Xiao Clan's ancestor used this blade to establish a territory for Daqian. Today, I will use this blade to slay the heretics of the Yinsha Sect and make another contribution to my Xiao Clan."

With that, Ancestor Yuanwu's figure flickered and disappeared like an invisible wind.

Almost in the blink of an eye, his figure suddenly appeared behind the blood altar.

At the same time, the blade in his hand was already raised high, and a clear blade light shot towards the young master like a moon breaking through the clouds.

The blue blade light was as light as the wind, fluttering, and as sharp as an ice blade, tearing through the surrounding blood light and bursting out with an indescribable intimidating power.

As a direct descendant of the Xiao Clan of Anyuanwei, Ancestor Yuanwu, like his ancestors, had awakened the Xun Wind bloodline. Now that he had reached the third level of his bloodline, even his internal Xuan Qi carried a strong Xun Wind attribute. With the blessing of his treasure, his combat power was not much weaker than that of the core disciples of the academy.

In a flash, the blue blade light had reached the young master's back.

The blade was aimed straight at his heart!

"Hmph~ Good move!"

The young master sneered continuously, his Yinsha Demon Blade turned abruptly, blocking the blade light without even looking back.

The blade light collided with the blade, causing a powerful shockwave.

But as soon as the shockwave touched the Yinsha Demon Blade, it was shattered by the overflowing Xuan Qi from the blade.

Using the force of this strike, the young master's figure floated forward like a willow leaf, quickly putting distance between him and Ancestor Yuanwu.

His movements were elegant and casual, as if every move was effortless, but his eyes revealed a touch of seriousness.

Because, his opponent was not one, but two!

Sure enough, as he blocked Ancestor Yuanwu's attack, on the other side, Ancestor Huaye had already charged over with his war halberd.

"Hahaha~ Die!"

Ancestor Huaye let out a loud laugh, and the red Xuan Qi gushed out from his palm, instantly turning the entire war halberd red.

With a sweep of the halberd, the sky was filled with red light.

Although the weapon in his hand was not the original treasure war halberd, it was a mid-grade spiritual weapon. The Xuan Qi cultivated from the top-grade technique "Red Dragon True Jue" was thick and condensed. Combined with the mid-grade spiritual weapon, the power it exerted was not as good as a treasure, but it was not much worse than an average celestial realm.

In addition, he had already crushed a piece of Red Fire Dragon Scale when he started, increasing his strength by two to three times compared to his normal state.

At this moment, as he pushed his internal Xuan Qi to the limit, a red dragon-shaped phantom gradually appeared behind him, and the sound of dragon chants echoed from the void, creating an indescribable terrifying aura.

However, the young master, as a direct disciple of the Yinsha Sect, was not so easy to deal with.Compared to Huaye and Yuanwu, the two Ancestors, his cultivation method was superior, and he himself possessed a quadruple bloodline and a Yinsha spiritual body, which could initially manipulate the power of the laws of heaven and earth. Moreover, there was a Yinsha spiritual vein here, and the surrounding Yinsha energy was extremely dense, giving him an absolute advantage.

With all his strength, his body was filled with evil energy, and a clear Dharma image rose behind him, emitting ghostly wails, making him seem like a ghost slayer who had slaughtered thousands of evil spirits, with the power to destroy heaven and earth at his fingertips, which was terrifying.

With his own power, he was able to withstand the two Ancestors in the Heavenly Realm without falling behind.

For a moment, the entire altar was filled with shockwaves caused by the three of them fighting, and even the remaining formations on the altar were destroyed, almost unrecognizable.

The surrounding Spirit Platform Realm cultivators unconsciously retreated dozens of feet, fearing to be affected by their battle.

"How could this be..."

Yin Jiu's face was extremely ugly.

He never expected that Huangfu's Clan would hide so deeply and be so bold. Since they dared to make a move, they must have been prepared.

Immediately, he quietly retreated, hoping to escape from this place of right and wrong while everyone's attention was not on him.

However, he had only taken a few steps when he was blocked by Huangfu Jin Huan and several Spirit Platform Realm cultivators from his clan.

"Mr. Jiu, where are you planning to go?" Huangfu Jin Huan stood with his hands behind his back, his face full of satisfaction.

Yin Jiu's face turned extremely ugly, and he pleaded in a low voice, "Clan Leader Jin Huan, we have no grudges in the past, and no hatred in the recent days, why not let me go this time? Yin Jiu will definitely repay you in the future."

"Hahaha~ Let you go?" Huangfu Jin Huan stood with his hands behind his back, sneering, "You are a demon of the Yinsha Sect, and we are a noble family of Daqian. In terms of law and reason, I should capture you and send your heads to the Commandery for a reward."

"With this great merit, it is reasonable and legal for us to ask the Commandery to find a way to heal our Ancestor's injuries."

"Elders and generals, let's take down this demon of the Yinsha Sect together!"

With Huangfu Jin Huan's order, the several Spirit Platform Realm cultivators he brought with him made their move.

Yin Jiu's strength was not bad, but he was outnumbered, how could he escape unscathed?

In a short while, accompanied by Yin Jiu's scream, he was killed on the spot.

Seeing this, the young master's face turned cold as ice, his eyes burning with anger. He roared angrily, "Huangfu's Clan, Xiao's Clan, I will remember you."

As soon as his words fell.

He forcefully repelled the two Ancestors who were surrounding him, quickly took out a pill filled with dense Yinsha energy.

This pill, known as the "Extreme Yinsha Poison Pill", was one of the specialties of the Yinsha Sect, extremely valuable, and could greatly increase the combat power of the Yinsha Sect disciples in a short period of time.

But the downside of this pill was also obvious.

Once the effect of the pill wore off, the user would fall into a state of weakness, and the extreme Yinsha poison would enter the body, possibly damaging the cultivation base, and it might not recover even after several years.

Most of the core disciples of the Yinsha Sect couldn't even afford to exchange it, only some wealthy direct disciples would exchange for an "Extreme Yinsha Poison Pill" as a trump card in case of emergency.

The young master hesitated for a moment, but in an instant, he made up his mind and swallowed the "Extreme Yinsha Poison Pill".

The next moment.

A powerful Yinsha energy mixed with poison exploded in his body, spreading throughout his body in an instant, soaking into his meridians.

His momentum skyrocketed instantly.

At the same time, the Dharma image behind him seemed to be stimulated, suddenly becoming active, emitting a truly high-pitched and mournful howl.

In the suddenly surging power, the young master's hair flew up, and his clothes inflated like a balloon.

The dark poison spread quickly from his neck to his jaw, his skin quickly turned pale, his eyes became darker, making his originally handsome features seem terrifying.

At this moment, he looked more like a fierce ghost than a human!

"Hmph~"

The bone-eroding poison intensified the young master's anger, he sneered, picked up the Yinsha Demon Blade and faced the two Ancestors who were rushing up again. With a sweep of the Demon Blade, several powerful Yinsha Blade Lights swept out instantly, covering both of them.

This Blade Light was as black as ink, but its edge was incredibly intimidating, carrying the poison of extreme Yin and evil, as if it could tear the void!

"Die!"

With a roar, the Blade Light instantly tore through the air and arrived in front of the two Heavenly Ancestors.

The faces of Ancestor Huaye and Ancestor Yuanwu changed, and they hurriedly swung their weapons to block.

However, the power of this Blade Light completely exceeded their expectations. With one strike, they were shocked to the point that they almost dropped their weapons.

Before they could recover, the young master's next attack had already arrived.

The crisscrossing Blade Light was like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, wherever it passed, even the altar below was cut with cracks.

Ancestor Huaye and Ancestor Yuanwu joined forces, repeatedly using methods to resist, but they were still beaten back, without the power to fight back.

"We can't go on like this." Ancestor Yuanwu was anxious, "Huaye, if you have any tricks, use them now!"

"You help me block for a moment."Huaye Ancestor gritted his teeth, knowing that at this point, he could no longer harbor any illusions of luck.

Taking advantage of the moment when Ancestor Yuanwu was struggling to hold back, he swiped his left hand over his storage ring, and an object instantly appeared in his palm. He tossed it out, and it exploded violently in the air.

In an instant.

A surge of intense flame energy suddenly spread out.

This flame energy was as if it had been seized from magma, intense and surging, carrying an extreme high temperature that seemed capable of scorching people. The moment it exploded, it swept across hundreds of meters around like a fierce fire.

In an instant, the surrounding pervasive chill was completely melted away, the temperature in the air rose by at least twenty degrees in an instant, and even the solid ice on the ground that had formed due to the Xuan Ice Spirit Vein showed signs of melting.

Everyone seemed to have experienced a sudden shift in climate from the depths of winter to the warmth of spring.

However, the change in temperature was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that the pervasive evil energy around was all neutralized by this flame energy.

Moreover, this flame energy enveloped everything around like a sky curtain, filling every corner with a rich fiery breath. It seemed that it would not dissipate for a short time.

Seeing this scene, Ancestor Yuanwu couldn't help but hiss.

"Six Polar Sun Flame Bead!"

The young master's eyes widened in disbelief, his expression full of incredulity.

Of course, he had heard of the Six Polar Sun Flame Bead. As a disciple of the Yinsha Sect, how could he not have heard of this weapon specifically developed by the academy to deal with the Yinsha Sect?

But this thing was extremely rare, only the direct disciples of the academy could get it. Where did Huaye get it from?

"Hahaha~ Didn't expect that, did you~" Seeing the young master's shocked eyes, Huaye Ancestor was extremely pleased and couldn't help but burst into laughter, "You actually thought you could control me with a secret method to suppress sword intent, dream on~! Today, I will make sure you never return!"

After saying that, he glanced sideways at Ancestor Yuanwu: "Yuanwu, don't just stand there. Use all your strength for me! Damn it!"

"Okay!"

Ancestor Yuanwu no longer held back and pushed his internal cultivation method to the extreme.

A faint phantom of a Dharma image appeared behind him, causing his momentum to suddenly rise.

Under full exertion, his blade light even faintly carried the sound of wind and thunder, and his every move was filled with unparalleled sharpness.

With the Six Polar Sun Flame Bead's fiery breath suppressing the chill, he and Huaye Ancestor joined forces and finally successfully suppressed the young master.

The scale of victory began to slowly tilt in their favor.

Seeing the situation under control again, all the elders and family generals of the Huangfu's Clan breathed a sigh of relief.

The preparations made by the clan leader this time were very thorough, and everyone looked at Huangfu Jin Huan with admiration.

Huangfu Jin Huan showed a triumphant expression on his face.

What is called knowing your enemy? This is knowing your enemy.

A direct disciple of the Yinsha Sect, how could he not have some life-saving cards in his hand?

This Six Polar Sun Flame Bead was a trump card that he had obtained at a great cost. Its role was both heart-wrenching and a relief.

Without this item, he might have let the young master turn the tables.

The subsequent battle had no suspense. With the Six Polar Sun Flame Bead completely suppressing the young master's Yinsha energy, he lost any chance of turning the tables.

In a short while, under the joint cooperation of Huaye and Yuanwu, the young master was repeatedly hit hard.

"Boom!"

The young master was thrown hard next to the blood-colored altar, damaging half of the altar.

His appearance had become extremely disheveled, his body was full of injuries, he was constantly spitting out blood from his mouth, and he had no strength to fight for a while.

"Indeed worthy of being a direct disciple, he is even stronger than I imagined." Ancestor Yuanwu floated above him, panting.

Although they won this battle, the combat power displayed by the direct disciple also made Ancestor Yuanwu admire him.

If it were a one-on-one fight, Ancestor Yuanwu would probably not be his opponent.

Huaye Ancestor's eyes were cold: "Brother Yuanwu, as the saying goes, the longer the night, the more dreams. Let's join hands and kill him. This merit will be equally divided between our Huangfu's Clan and Xiao's Clan."

Being able to kill a Yinsha Sect direct disciple in the middle stage of the Heavenly Man Realm was undoubtedly a great merit. Moreover, a blood nest base was discovered this time.

Such achievements might even attract the attention of the capital, and the rewards would be extremely generous. Even if the two clans shared this merit, they would definitely make a fortune.

Even Ancestor Yuanwu, who came from an old Heavenly Man family, felt a surge of heat in his heart. This level of merit, apart from the founding ancestor, would be his second.

It was very possible for the family to be promoted to the sixth rank in the future because of this.

If it weren't for such a huge temptation, coupled with Huangfu Jin Huan's meticulous arrangements, would a Heavenly Man Ancestor risk coming here?

"Enough, enough." The heavily injured young master had a face of despair and helplessness, "I didn't expect that I, the young master, would die here... I was too careless."

"Young master, have a good journey, we won't see you off." Huaye Ancestor sneered, raising his fire battle halberd, ready to send the young master on his way.

Suddenly.

A round of applause sounded.

"Clap, clap, clap!"

In the distance, a familiar and mocking laughter of Huaye Ancestor came."Indeed, what a spectacle. Huangfu Jinhuan, Huangfu Huaye, I didn't expect you to become so clever, even learning to anticipate your enemy's moves. It seems you've learned well from my teachings."

Wang Shouzhe? How... how is this possible?

Both Huaye Ancestor and Huangfu Jinhuan's faces changed drastically.

...
