Protect Our Chief-Chapter 656 - 75 Shouzhe Helps Tianyan Fairy Detox
...
"Zuoqiu the Kid, relax your body!"
In Elder Jiang’s heart, alarms blared loudly. He didn’t care about the significant depletion of his Divine Soul Power, immediately controlling Zuoqiu Qingyun’s body, recklessly urging Minor Divine Techniques, attempting to evade the Sword Intent with speed.
However, at this moment, Elder Jiang was merely a remnant soul. Even if he could use Minor Divine Techniques with Divine Soul Power, limited by Zuoqiu Qingyun’s own strength, the power he could exert was less than a tenth of a true Minor Divine Technique. How could he possibly evade?
Before the rosy light could flee more than a few zhang, the fierce Sword Intent had already pursued and struck directly on the strange peach-pink glow.
The dazzling glow exploded instantly, and the blinding light illuminated half the sky.
A half-breath later, a deafening roar echoed from the depths of the peach forest, like thunder breaking apart or the Celestial River bursting its banks, resounding through the night sky in an instant.
Following closely was an energy shockwave, surging like a stormy tide.
The entire Peach Blossom Forest swayed wildly. The nearby peach trees were uprooted, while even those farther away had countless branches broken, with countless petals torn off and dancing wildly in the sky.
Wang Shouzhe, though dozens of zhang away, was still significantly affected and had to command vines to protect himself at the center.
Once the shockwave passed, a massive crater appeared in the peach forest.
In the center of the crater lay Zuoqiu Qingyun’s body, cleaved into two parts. Blood gushed fiercely from the severed sections, quickly staining the surrounding ground red.
In the night sky, after Ancestor Longyan beheaded with one sword, she had already withdrawn her Sword Momentum.
Amidst the howling night wind, she hovered in the air, her robes fluttering, resembling a fairy descended from the Immortal Palace, untouchable and awe-inspiring.
Time seemed to stand still at that moment.
At the bottom of the crater, despite being a Spirit Platform Realm Late Stage powerhouse, Zuoqiu Qingyun’s Life Force was strong, not entirely dead even now.
Blood continued to gush from his throat, yet his bloodshot eyes fixated on Ancestor Longyan in disbelief: "Great, Great Celestial Pride, you are actually a Great Celestial..."
Only a Great Celestial Pride could kill him with such a sword. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
Alas.
No one would answer his question.
Before he could finish speaking, his eyes rolled back, completely losing life.
"Despicable~~! I, an old man, had worked so hard to revive my Divine Soul, prepared to cultivate a new body, only to encounter such a disaster!"
The residual soul of Elder Jiang hiding within Zuoqiu Qingyun’s Spirit Platform was terrified and furious.
However, he wouldn’t die with Zuoqiu Qingyun.
While Zuoqiu Qingyun’s Spirit Platform had not yet collapsed and his consciousness had not completely faded, he hastily detached himself, attaching to a Jade Pendant at Zuoqiu’s waist.
The previous battle had consumed too much of his Divine Soul Power. At this moment, his residual soul was extremely weak. Yet even so, he once again activated his Divine Soul Power, wrapping the Jade Pendant, wobbling and fleeing along the ground.
The Peach Blossom Forest was lush with vegetation and weeds everywhere. With the small size of the Jade Pendant, using the weeds as cover, it was indeed inconspicuous.
"Heh heh heh~ No matter how cunning Wang Shouzhe is, he would never suspect my existence," within the Jade Pendant, Elder Jiang sneered, filled with hatred, "A gentleman’s revenge can wait a hundred years. Once I escape here, I’ll find a suitable body to cultivate, then seek revenge on Wang Shouzhe."
However.
He had barely flown out ten zhang when a vine, appearing out of nowhere, snapped him back with a "whack" and then crushed him into the flower mud with a foot.
"Just as expected," Wang Shouzhe’s voice came from above, "I always felt Zuoqiu Qingyun was very strange—indeed, he carried something bizarre."
How was this possible?!
Elder Jiang was so shocked that he was completely dumbfounded.
It took him a full two or three breaths to react, both shocked and angry, struggling violently: "How is this possible? How could you have discovered me?! With your age and experience, how could you know about such a high-level secret as ’Divine Soul Parasite’?"
The power of the Divine Soul disturbed the air, emitting a sound akin to a human voice. However, the lack of focus made it sound muffled and unclear.
Wang Shouzhe snorted with laughter.
Indeed, in this Black Tortoise World, he had never heard of anything like "Divine Soul Parasite."
But in his past life, he read numerous fantasy novels, with countless "Old Grandpa" stories, system stories, and various sign-in streams... at least several hundred to a thousand books.
Zuoqiu Qingyun had many mysteries about him, and the changes were so evident. A mere Spirit Platform Realm Middle to Late Stage cultivator, yet his capabilities often erupted to levels capable of challenging the Celestial Human Realm.
If he were a Great Celestial Pride, relying on bloodline advantages might be explainable, but what he used was evidently not Bloodline Power; there had to be another special power.
With Wang Shouzhe’s knowledge and caution, wouldn’t he be extra vigilant?
However...
"Turns out it’s the outdated ’Old Grandpa’ style. I thought it was a system~" Wang Shouzhe glanced at the Jade Pendant, shaking his head with a hint of regret.
The system is quite useful, though.
Look at their Wang Family—ever since they got the "Little Xue" system, not only has internal management efficiency greatly improved, but storage, sorting, and retrieval of information have also become much more convenient.
