Protect Our Chief-Chapter 658 - 75: Shouzhe Helps Tianyan Fairy Detoxify_3

Shouzhe is Ancestor Longyan’s most cherished junior, and the most important person in the Changning Wang Family now. If something were to happen to him, what would Wang Longyan do?

"Spare me, Immortal Fairy, spare me~~" The old ghost’s residual soul felt disaster looming over and let out pitiful divine soul fluctuations, trembling the air with a desperate plea for mercy.

"Ancestor, please stay your hand for now." Wang Shouzhe intervened and said, "This old ghost has a mysterious background. Let’s interrogate him clearly before making a decision."

"Hmph!"

Ancestor Longyan let out a cold snort and withdrew the oppressive aura, though she still had a wisp of divine sense firmly locked onto the old ghost’s residual soul. Should he dare make any slightest move, she would activate sword intent to annihilate him.

"Tell me, what is your origin? And how did you collude with Zuoqiu Qingyun?" Wang Shouzhe looked coldly at the residual soul, his voice carrying a hint of killing intent, "Don’t think about making up lies to fool me. Should I catch even a single false word, I can only ensure your divine soul is extinguished completely."

"Yes, yes." The old ghost’s residual soul, having narrowly escaped with its life, hurriedly and honestly said, "I, whose surname is Jiang and named Yuchen, am a descendant of the Fourth Grade Noble Family Jiang of the Cold Moon Immortal Dynasty. In my youth, I was also a Great Celestial Pride, high-spirited and with a bright future ahead."

"But changes came unexpectedly, and the Jiang Family was betrayed and besieged by enemies, with thousands of clan members nearly wiped out. I was the only one to escape to the Outer Domain to live ignobly. Fortunately, heaven favored me, and I accidentally obtained a relic from a senior of the Divine Martial Dynasty. Not only did this transform my bloodline, turning me into a Great Celestial Pride, but I also acquired a remnant scroll of a forbidden Divine Martial Technique."

"This remnant is named the ’Golden Toad Treasure Manual’, a rare manual capable of breaking through the Divine Power Realm. Even in my Cold Moon Immortal Dynasty, such a manual that can lead directly to Lingxu is very rare. Therefore, I diligently cultivated the ’Golden Toad Treasure Manual’. After achieving Minor Achievement, I found ways to return to the Immortal Dynasty incognito as a Loose Cultivator. Over a thousand years, I established and developed the ’Golden Toad Sect’, exterminating enemy noble families one by one."

"But the good times did not last, and the Golden Toad Sect was classified as an ’evil cult’ by the Immortal Dynasty, which sent troops to suppress and annihilate it. I fought several Immortal Dynasty experts to death and barely escaped with only my divine soul. I had no choice but to hide deep in the Barbaric Wilderness Outer Domain to evade pursuit. Then, I found a way to enter into divine soul dormancy. It wasn’t until Zuoqiu the Kid accidentally discovered my resting place...that I made an agreement with him, willing to expend divine soul power to assist him, helping his bloodline transform and become a Celestial Pride. As for what happened afterward, I believe the young master already knows."

Wang Shouzhe listened quietly to his revelation of identity and origin. Besides sensing that he might have hidden something, it didn’t seem like he was lying. Moreover, such lies wouldn’t have much significance.

"Where is the Cold Moon Immortal Dynasty that you speak of? How far is it from the Daqian?" Wang Shouzhe asked.

"I don’t know. Back then, I only cared about fleeing, and I just remember escaping very, very far." Jiang Yuchen, Old Ghost Jiang, said sincerely, "However, when I fled to this side, there was no Daqian Kingdom yet. Even Qeng’an County was just part of the Barbaric Wilderness Outer Domain..."

"Uh..."

Wang Shouzhe was speechless for a moment.

Qeng’an County is one of the earliest pioneer counties, with a history of several thousand years. To think that this Old Ghost Jiang might indeed be someone who existed before the founding of Daqian.

"What kind of divine technique manual is the ’Golden Toad Treasure Manual’? Why was the Golden Toad Sect categorized as an evil cult?" Wang Shouzhe raised another key question.

Speaking of the ’Golden Toad Treasure Manual’, Old Ghost Jiang Yuchen perked up.

He suddenly became high-spirited and used an enticing tone to explain, "It’s an outstanding dual ~ cultivation great method. It can accelerate cultivation by cultivating tripod cauldrons and absorbing their vital blood energy. Furthermore, it can gradually stimulate one’s bloodline power by cultivating higher-tier tripod cauldrons..."

"..."

Wang Shouzhe was rendered speechless.

The ’Golden Toad Sect’ being labeled as an evil cult was truly justified.

This type of sinister cultivation technique that relies on plundering others to quickly enhance one’s power causes significant harm even with limited spread. If it were to become widespread, it would surely lead to social unrest and disruption, potentially impacting the carefully balanced power structure among noble families that was so hard-won.

If he were the ruler of the Cold Moon Immortal Dynasty, he would also dispatch troops to exterminate it.

"Shouzhe, do not be greedy for such a cultivation technique." Ancestor Longyan glared viciously at Old Ghost Jiang, then nervously reminded Wang Shouzhe, "Judging by Zuoqiu Qingyun’s performance, this technique most likely has hidden dangers that are unknown."

"Rest assured, Ancestor." Wang Shouzhe said seriously, "Our Wang Family can develop nobly and openly; there is no need to take risks in cultivating such an evil skill. Advancing steadily, step by step, is the way for a noble family to develop."

Initially, he was quite interested when he heard about a ’treasure manual’.

Now it seems that this thing is just a waste of effort.

If he dared to cultivate such a technique, once it was spread, it would more than likely lead to the Wang Family being eradicated by the Daqian Government Office. Moreover, seeing the old ghost and Zuoqiu Qingyun’s reckless and wild demeanor, it’s apparent that this treasure manual probably has very serious side effects.

"As long as you understand..." Ancestor Longyan breathed a sigh of relief.

It was Shouzhe’s prudence in taking a reliable path in everything, never taking risks if it could be avoided, that satisfied her the most.

The exchange made Old Ghost Jiang Yuchen anxious, and he hastily said, "Young master, you have the posture of a Great Celestial Pride. Cultivating the ’Golden Toad Treasure Manual’ would be most suitable for you. Not only can it accelerate your cultivation, but it can also make you invincible in matters of men and women... No Immortal Fairy or Saintess would resist bowing to you..."
