Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1909: Chapter 175: Offering Myself as Gratitude for Saving My Life! (Part 3)

The piercingly shrill scream made everyone’s heart shiver, and then they all showed an expression of disbelief.

A situation involving the spirit remnant of a Demonic God, even the powerful ones of the Transcendent Void Realm were at a loss, yet Liu Ruolan solved it with just one sword strike?!

What level of Sword Intent must this be… No, this definitely must have touched upon the True Sword Intent of the Sword Dao, right?

Hundred Refinements True Monarch and Queen Lan Xin both felt dizzy, with a shocking sense of their worldview crashing down.

Even the bigwigs like King Chaoyang, who often played mahjong with Liu Ruolan, were somewhat slow to react.

They knew Liu Ruolan was powerful. But wasn’t she always playing mahjong with everyone? When did she cultivate her Sword Intent to this level?

Or could it be that playing mahjong actually hones Sword Intent too?

Of everyone present, only Wang Shouzhe and Wang Luomiao remained calm.

Wang Shouzhe had witnessed Liu Ruolan use one sword to strip away the spirit remnant of the Magic Cauldron Lord, while Wang Luomiao was simply accustomed to his sister-in-law’s extraordinary feats now and then.

After all, once your worldview shatters enough times, you get used to it~

Upon seeing the sword strike, Liu Ruolan’s face turned pale, and she was about to collapse. Wang Shouzhe hurriedly reached out to support her, continuously channeling Life Origin energy into her body.

At this moment, the King of Zhennan also slowly woke up.

Seeing the bigwigs gathered around the bed, his face was full of confusion and helplessness, “I… where am I?”

Hearing him speak, everyone immediately came to their senses.

“Young Xiaoyang, you really are lucky~” Hundred Refinements True Monarch let out a sigh of relief, patting him on the shoulder in wonder, “While everyone was on the Flying Boat when the energy from the Divine Martial Heavenly Ruins erupted, others managed to find a half-step Immortal Sword, but you got possessed by a Demonic God spirit remnant?”

Listening to him, King of Zhennan’s memories gradually returned, and his eyes slowly cleared from confusion.

He sighed with a bit of fear, “This isn’t a matter of luck. Our branch of the Yun Family, the King of Zhennan lineage, practices the Gold Element Battle Body Technique, the Golden Dragon Codex. With cultivation progress, the latent Ancient Dragon Blood in our bodies gradually awakens. When cultivated to its peak, it can transform into a powerful Golden Dragon Body.”

“And that Demonic God spirit remnant, known as the ‘Dragon Blood Demon God,’ was most compatible with my bloodline and battle body among those present in the Void Realm. If it had been a Red Hellfire System Demonic God, it might have gone for you instead.”

Hundred Refinements True Monarch was also startled, “That would have been terrible. If I were possessed by a Demonic God spirit remnant, growing scales and claws, I’d definitely be despised by Xin’er.”

“Don’t worry, dear Lian.” Queen Lan Xin soothingly reassured Hundred Refinements True Monarch, holding his arm and smiling sweetly, “No matter what happens or how you change, you will always be my dear Lian.”

“Xin’er, you’re truly wonderful.” Hundred Refinements True Monarch was deeply moved.

“Dear Lian, you are the truly wonderful one.”

King of Zhennan felt a chill down his spine, involuntarily shivering.

He couldn’t help but regret the decision to travel on the same flying carriage to East Qian Country with them.

Throughout the journey, he had only seen them showing affection towards each other, and even now, after being attacked by a Demonic God spirit remnant, he was forced to witness their displays of affection.

Yet he dared not speak more. Queen Lan Xin was a senior of the Yun family, and Hundred Refinements True Monarch was a rare and esteemed Alchemy Grandmaster—neither of whom he could afford to offend.

Eager to change the subject, he stood up and bowed to Wang Shouzhe and Liu Ruolan, “You two must be the famed Clan Leader Wang Shouzhe and the esteemed Lady Ruolan of the Wang family? Summer Sun thanks the virtuous couple for saving me.”

Though he appeared unconscious earlier, in reality, he hadn’t completely lost consciousness. His Divine Soul had retreated to the Spiritual Platform, striving to maintain clarity of mind while resisting the invasion of the Demonic God spirit remnant. He was aware of and remembered everything happening around him.

“Your Highness, you are too polite.” Wang Shouzhe courteously returned the gesture, “It was simply a small effort from my humble wife and me. But Your Highness, your determination is admirable, to persist under the invasion of the Demonic God spirit remnant. Shouzhe is impressed.”

“Shouzhe, could you kindly check on Young Xiaoyang’s physical condition again?” King Chaoyang was still a bit worried about the junior in the clan and entrusted Wang Shouzhe.

“Your Highness, please.”

Wang Shouzhe nodded, and with the King of Zhennan’s permission, he took hold of his wrist, sending a strand of Mysterious Energy of Life Origin into his body.

This time, the investigation went smoothly, with no interference from the shadow of the Demonic God.

During the inspection, Wang Shouzhe also asked several questions, to which the King of Zhennan answered truthfully.

Not long after, he withdrew the Mysterious Energy and said, “Your Highness’s body is no longer in any danger.”

“No longer in any danger?”

The King of Zhennan looked speechlessly at the dragon scales on his arms and the hands that had turned into claws, completely unable to understand.

Is this, really, no longer in any danger?

His brow furrowed deeply, “What about my body? How do I retract these claws and scales?”

But before he even finished speaking, the dragon scales began to fade and disappear suddenly, and even the half-transformed claws returned to normal human hands in an instant.

King of Zhennan was stunned and then suddenly overjoyed, “Good, good, good! I understand, so it’s actually this simple.”

With just a thought, new scales grew on his arms, and his hands transformed into dragon claws, even his face elongated, gradually turning draconic.

Then with another thought, he quickly reverted to his normal form again.

“Your Highness, what’s this about?” Wang Shouzhe felt his scalp tingling, “Could it be that your True Spirit has been invaded by the Demonic God spirit remnant?”
