I'm About to Die, Can't I Buff My Junior Sister's Strength?

136: The Shen family members are all like dragons, and everyone’s heart is with the Shen family!Lu Ya looked up and saw a shirtless young man smiling at him with narrowed eyes.

Just standing there, the shirtless youth exerted a pressure on Lu Ya that was no less than Tang Jiang’s. Especially his explosive muscles, which clearly indicated he was a Body Cultivator.

”Fellow Daoist, you are?” Lu Ya asked, his tone slightly humble.

He dared to be arrogant in the Lower Realm, but having arrived in the Upper Realm, especially in the military camp of the Shen Family’s Second Sequence, he dared not act presumptuous.

”My name is Li Kui. I am one of Lord Wudao’s Twelve Generals. My Realm is slightly higher than yours; I am already at the Soul Transformation Middle Stage, and I have followed the Lord for six years.” Li Kui chuckled, making a ’six’ gesture as he explained, observing Lu Ya with satisfaction.

Finally, a decent prospect has arrived.

It seems guarding the camp wasn’t in vain.

Lu Ya was delighted upon learning the other party’s identity. He cupped his hands again and asked, ”Fellow Daoist Li, may I ask where Lord Wolf King went today?”

As he spoke, Lu Ya had already walked over to Li Kui’s side, clearly indicating he was unfamiliar with the old man.

This immediately made Tang Jiang’s face darken, but in this place, he dared not offend anyone, so he could only swallow his resentment.

”A few days ago, Lord Wudao happily acquired a Heaven Saber and took people to the Heavenly Demon Realm to test its edge against the Yao Race,” Li Kui answered casually, but inwardly, he felt no goodwill toward Lu Ya.

Abandoning comrades is the greatest taboo in the military, and Lu Ya’s action displeased him.

”Going to the Heavenly Demon Realm?” Lu Ya was visibly stunned.

”Isn’t our Human Race weaker than the Monster Realm? Going there like this, aren’t they afraid of something happening?”

Li Kui showed a sneer: ”Heh heh, you want to follow Lord Wudao, yet you haven’t even heard one of his famous quotes?”

Lu Ya looked confused, but Tang Jiang, with thick skin, quickly interjected, speaking with an expression of reverence.

”Lord Wolf King once said, ’If the Human Race is weak, what concern is that of my Shen Family?’”

”If every person were like the Shen Family’s sons, the entire Monster Realm would be nothing but ants!”

Upon hearing this, Lu Ya looked somewhat startled, but inwardly, he was incredibly shocked.

This man is truly confident.

The Son of the Sequence truly lives up to his reputation!

”Kid, your luck is good, it seems he’s here.” Old Man Jiu You suddenly sensed something, then added, ”I need to go into deep sleep. Don’t call me unless it’s extremely important.”

Facing the Upper Realm’s top Prodigy, he dared not show himself at any time, lest he be discovered.

Boom!

A deafening sound rang out, shaking the very ground.

Lu Ya turned around and saw a tall figure stepping through the air beneath the Blood Moon on the horizon. His black hair was wild, his face was sharply sculpted, his skin was bronze, and his eyes looked down upon all living beings from a lofty height. He carried a Long Saber at his waist, one hand resting on the hilt, the other clasped behind his back, like an emperor touring the mortal world.

This was an extremely charismatic man who looked around thirty years old, yet he gave off a sense of vitality and ancient experience spanning ten thousand years.

If one looked closely, they could see that his little finger was casually hooked around a thin black thread, and the other end of the thread suspended seven or eight Yao Race heads.

Beneath his feet was a massive army, surging forward with a magnificent Aura, like a Black Dragon.

Heaven and Earth fell silent!

Only the terrifying Battle Intent permeated the air.

”Greetings, Lord Prince!”

Inside the military camp, all the patrolling soldiers knelt on one knee, their expressions devout.

Shen Wudao took a single step and was already inside the military camp, his expression neither happy nor sad.

Li Kui knelt on one knee and respectfully said, ”Congratulations, Lord Prince, on the unsealing of your Divine Saber and the slaying of seven Great Demons!”

Shen Wudao lowered his eyes, glanced at him, and murmured, ”What a pity, none of them were royal kin...”

Having said that, he casually tossed the Yao heads onto the ground.

”Hahaha, perhaps the Royal Kin heard that Lord Prince was leaving the Heavenly Abyss and all went into hiding!” Li Kui stood up and flattered him.

Shen Wudao did not reply, instead turning his gaze toward Lu Ya, who was also kneeling on one knee beside him.

At this moment, Lu Ya’s body couldn’t help but tremble, and he couldn’t even muster the courage to meet his gaze. The terrifying oppressive feeling made him realize that the other party could completely erase him with a single look, yet his heart was tremendously excited.

Good, good, good!

Following such a figure as this, I, Lu Ya, will not be disgraced!

Lord Nine Nethers Underworld Emperor was right; only a Shen Family Sequence member can help him turn the tables!

How could such a peerless figure be willing to submit to others?

In this moment, he firmly believed that he was right.

”Lord Prince, these two were recommended by Xue Hua...” Li Kui explained respectfully.

Mm.

Shen Wudao softly acknowledged, then stopped looking at Lu Ya and the other man, instead gazing toward the horizon.

”Hurry up and thank the Lord Prince?” Li Kui transmitted his voice to Lu Ya and simultaneously to Tang Jiang.

”Old man, you’ve hit the jackpot. The Lord Prince is in a good mood today, hurry up and thank him!”

Lu Ya immediately thanked him respectfully: ”Thank you, Lord Prince!”

Tang Jiang was even more ecstatic, kowtowing and saying, ”Many thanks, Lord Prince!”

But at this moment, Shen Wudao’s gaze remained fixed on the sky.

Soon, a figure walked over.

The newcomer wore the distinctive White Robes of the Shen Family, with the character ”Shen” embroidered on the cuffs in Silver Thread. He had an extraordinary demeanor and was an elder.

”Wolf King.” The elder first offered a slight bow of respect, then spoke seriously.

”The Old Ancestor has commanded that the Five Great Sequences return to the Family to welcome the Young Clan Leader home...”

Shen Wudao looked at the elder, saying nothing, but his brow furrowed slightly, displaying majesty without anger.

The elder glanced at Shen Wudao, then turned and left. His mission was complete, and the rest was none of his business.

Nearby, Lu Ya, upon hearing the four words ”Young Clan Leader home,” immediately changed expression, his eyes filled with fear.

How is he so fast!

Wasn’t he still in the Relic Site?

Why is he coming back already!

Unacceptable!

I must quickly sow discord between Shen Wudao and Shen Nian.

However, judging by Shen Wudao’s expression, there should be a good chance!

Lu Ya immediately rejoiced when he noticed Shen Wudao’s displeasure, but he found that no one around him dared to speak.

Tang Jiang, however, revealed a sycophantic smile, as if he had found an opportunity.

These idiots, don’t they know how to express loyalty and flatter him at a time like this?

This is a great chance to choose a side!

Immediately afterward, he revealed an indignant expression and said, ”Hmph, this old man has long heard that the Young Clan Leader of the Shen Family is completely unworthy of that position! His talent and strength compared to our Lord Prince are like heaven and earth! And he actually dares to demand the Lord Prince return to welcome him? What a joke!”

”This old servant feels this is unjust for the Lord Prince!”

He spoke righteously, filled with fervor.

This made Lu Ya’s eyes light up. Just as he was about to agree, his entire being froze. His vision only reflected the tall figure grabbing Tang Jiang as if squeezing a dead dog, the anger on his face chilling to the bone.

He saw:

Shen Wudao was clutching the old man’s neck, his eyes filled with disgust, his voice cold as an ice cellar.

”You ant-like trash! I let you be a dog and kneel properly, yet that gave you the audacity to insult the Young Master of my Shen Family?”

”Did you?”

Tang Jiang was filled with horror, wanting to answer and beg for mercy, but he couldn’t even make a sound. The dao palace inside his body was instantly crushed by a dominant Saber Intent, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. Yet, he couldn’t understand why, when he was clearly speaking up for Shen Wudao.

Crack!

Tang Jiang’s neck was crushed, and he still wore a look of panic and confusion even in death.

Li Kui, however, sneered, looking at the old man’s corpse as if it were a useless straw bag.

Even if the Lord Prince is domineering and unhappy with the Family’s arrangements, that is still the Lord Prince’s cousin. Who are you to criticize?

The Shen Family has maintained its Legacy and stood firm at the Peak until now, not only because of the successive generations of Super Prodigies born within it, but also because of its unwavering Family Tradition.

Loyalty!

Whether they are of the Shen Family’s Main Lineage or a Branch Lineage, they are all immensely loyal to the Shen Family!

Especially in the eyes of these Sons of the Sequence, there are only Shen Family members and Human Race ants.

The life of one Shen Family member is more valuable than that of thousands upon thousands of you, let alone the Young Clan Leader of the Main Lineage?

You, a mere dog, dare to slander the Young Clan Leader of the Shen Family? You are simply courting death.

Furthermore, having been around for a long time, Li Kui was very clear: unlike other Ancient Desolate Families, the Shen Family Sequence members have always competed openly. If someone can suppress the Cosmos alone and overwhelm everyone else, they will also be immensely loyal and become the strongest sharp blade in his hand.

This is the fundamental reason why the Shen Family is the strongest of the Human Race; it can already be called the Faith of the Shen Family members.

Every Shen Family member is a Dragon, and every one of them is loyal to the Shen Family—this has never changed throughout the ages!
