Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 372: Chapter 79: Old Ancestor Hua Ye! I lied to you_2

As a result, once they’re fully grown, forming a vine formation, they would be much more powerful than the Witch Series. Even cultivators in the advanced stage of the Spiritual Platform realm, once entangled by the Vine Array, would find it difficult to escape.

Of course.

That difficulty would only be brief as it would be almost impossible to directly trap and kill them. Given some time, those advanced Spiritual Platform realm cultivators could eventually break free.

This Iron Python Vine Formation has been cultivated by Wang Shouzhe for many years, waiting for a day like today.

“Both of you have impressive cultivation bases. According to the information I’ve gathered, you must be Elder Huangfu Jinning and Elder Huangfu Jinyu of the Huangfu Clan from Changning, am I right?”

From within the swathes of whirling vines, Wang Shouzhe slowly stepped forward.

His expression was very calm, walking leisurely as if in a tranquil garden, though surrounded by a jungle of pythons, exuding an air of ease.

Where he stood, the surrounding vines automatically moved aside, many even prostrating themselves on the ground, as if in submission.

This scene only amplified the strength of his aura.

“Wang Shouzhe!!”

The two elders, Huangfu Jinning and Huangfu Jinyu, were taken aback and their faces simultaneously changed color.

By this point, how could they not see the truth?

They’d been tricked!

It was clear they had fallen into a carefully designed trap!

At once, while resisting the vines, they both glared at the man in the elegant robe— Hidden Fish!

“Traitor!”

“How dare you betray the Huangfu Clan?!”

Both elders were enraged and verbally attacked in unison.

However, the middle-aged man seemed oblivious to their accusations. Instead, he took several steps back, calmly saluted Master Shouzhe and said, “Reporting to Master Shouzhe, I’ve followed your instructions and lured these two big fish here.”

“Well done.” Wang Shouzhe nodded slightly, “In that case, we will proceed according to our previous agreement. I will give you a handsome reward, and arrange for you and your family to relocate to a nearby county for a peaceful life. You must have heard, I keep my promises, always follow through on my words.”

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man couldn’t contain his excitement, deeply saluted Wang Shouzhe and said, “Thank you, Master Shouzhe.”

Afterward, he saluted the two elders of the Huangfu Clan and said, “My apologies, esteemed elders. My identity was accidentally exposed and my wife and children have been taken hostage. I had no choice but to betray the Huangfu Clan to ensure their safety.”

“Very good!”

The two elders of the Huangfu Clan jeered while fuelled with anger, “Wang Shouzhe, you have really outdone yourself! However, you think you can capture us with mere vines? You underrate us too much!”

After saying that, they both went all out, frantically cutting the vines and attempting to break free.

“Indeed, elders at the advanced stage of the Spiritual Platform realm are impressive. The prestigious clan of celestial beings truly has profound resources with myriad experts.” Wang Shouzhe was still unhurried and said with a calm expression, “Out of respect for the two of you, I have prepared a gift.”

Afterwards, he said to someone inside a nearby pavilion, “Old ancestor, please do the honors of dealing with these two enemies.”

As the last word echoed in the air,

A woman flew out of the room.

Decked out in a white Profound Martial uniform, her hair as icy and pure as snow, with a veil covering her face, it was the first ancestor of the Ping’an Wang Family, Wang Longyan, the old ancestor Longyan.

Upon her emergence, the ambient temperature around them noticeably dropped.

“Wang Longyan!”

Both elders of the Huangfu Clan involuntarily changed expression.

This woman was famously read about in Changning years ago. If not for that incident 60 years back, she might have reached the summit of the Spiritual Platform realm by now.

Despite that, in recent years, her fame has once again been growing rapidly. Not long back, she personally killed Mr. Yin of the Yinsha Sect and is currently in her prime.

Even under normal circumstances, neither of them was confident about defeating Wang Longyan one-on-one. Now, being entangled by the vines which greatly weakened their fighting abilities, they couldn’t help changing color.

Wang Longyan’s icy gaze swept across the faces of the two men. Subsequently, she let out a cold snort, flicked her wrist and threw out an item.

“Shoo!”

A creepy flag imbued with evil Qi was suspended in the air. Responding to the wind, it expanded and resounded with the gusts.

One chilling Qi after another emanated from the flag, swirling like the cold wind, infesting a significant area surrounding them within the blink of an eye.

“Yin Sha Asura Flag!”

The two elders of the Huangfu Clan had horrified expressions.

Both of them have years of experience and had seen a lot in their lifetime. They had close dealings with the Yinsha Sect, and therefore they instantly recognized the item.

While only a replica of that famous divine spiritual treasure, it was still a very rare middle-grade spiritual artifact, which packs a punch.

Even in the prestigious Celestial Huangfu Family, middle-grade spiritual artifacts are only found in threes. These two elders, both in the twilight of their lives, had no qualifications to wield these weapons.

What made the Yin Sha Asura Flag terrifying was that it could create chilling evil Qi, enveloping a range of several meters, artificially creating an environment suitable for the disciples of the Yinsha Sect to fight in, but detrimental to common Profound Martial cultivators.

This made it even trickier to deal with than ordinary middle-grade spiritual artifacts.

“Let me show you the potency of the Yin Sha’s evil toxins.”

Hatred flashed in Wang Longyan’s eyes as she exerted control over the Yin Sha Asura Flag, with a simple pinch.

If the Celestial Huangfu Family hadn’t conspired against them in the past, causing the deaths of her grandfather, Old Ancestor Zhou Xuan, her nephew Qiongyuan and many family members, the Ping’an Wang Family would never have met such a downfall.
