Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2210: Chapter 249: Shouzhe Advances to Divine Power Territory (Part 2)

Meanwhile, a Storage Ring fell into his palm.

Demon Lord Xietong swept his God Sense across the Storage Ring, and his gaze instantly revealed a look of ambition and fulfillment.

This is it.

With this treasure, capturing Da Qian will be no problem. Next, I just need to wait for the Kunmu Giant Vessel construction to be completed, then join forces with the West Jin and South Qin armies to attack Da Qian’s borders from three fronts.

This battle, he will undoubtedly win!

The Sacred Gu Codex, he is determined to acquire!

Right now, he led his three new subordinates back to the secondary palace, then ordered his attendant disciple to summon Yin Fengtu, commanding: “Send out the order, speed up the construction of the Kunmu Giant Vessel. At most ten years, I want to see three Kunmu Giant Vessels in operation. Once successful, I will reward handsomely.”

With his command, the entire construction team seemed invigorated, running at full speed.

The construction speed of the Kunmu Giant Vessel quickly increased by another notch.

…

In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed.

On the Wang family’s side, the makeshift version of the medium-sized Domain Crossing Ship was finally completed and successfully put into use.

Now, with a medium-sized and a small Boundary Crossing Boat operating simultaneously in the Boundary Gap, the pressure on people and goods transportation at Da Qian’s Demonic World defense base has been significantly alleviated.

Because of this, with the strong support of the Wang family, the clearing and construction work targeting the Demonic World’s territory started to accelerate further.

At the same time, the Wang family made use of the shell of one medium-sized Boundary Crossing Boat along with overlapped and spare parts to initiate the next project.

This time, the Wang family is determined to use this shell as a blueprint, to reconstruct a Boundary Crossing Boat and in the process, try to restore and decipher the technologies used within. What cannot be restored or deciphered will be replaced with existing technologies.

Compared to the makeshift version, this version is undoubtedly much more difficult, and it is unlikely to be completed in a short period.

As the progress of the Wang family and Dongqian’s open development of the outside Demonic World began to further accelerate, Demon Lord Xietong’s side ran into problems.

“Who?! Who did this?!”

Demon Lord Xietong hovered in front of the dock, looking at the damaged Kunmu Giant Vessel, injured personnel, and the chaos everywhere, and couldn’t help but become outraged.

This represented many years of his effort and anticipation, almost complete, yet everything transformed overnight!

His heartache was nearly bleeding at the moment, his face became particularly gloomy.

“Reporting to Demon Lord.” Looking at Demon Lord Xietong’s face, Yin Fengtu, who was in charge of supervision, turned pale, cold sweat streaming down his forehead, “A group of Dragon Whales passed by the West Sea, driving away hunting here, alarming numerous aquatic Fierce Beasts, forming a huge impact on our dock. The scene at the time was astounding, everyone present saw it.”

“Dragon Whales? West Sea is just a gigantic saltwater lake, still an inland lake, how could there be Dragon Whales?!” Demon Lord Xietong roared angrily, “Where are those Dragon Whales?”

“They, they left after finishing the hunt, now they’ve disappeared.”

“Damn it!”

Demon Lord Xietong’s face twisted in anger, his gaze brimmed with intense hostility.

How could it be so coincidental?!

Why right at this moment?!

The timing of this Dragon Whale appearance was too coincidental, coincidental enough for him to suspect they might have done it on purpose!

Unfortunately, even if he wanted to trouble that group of Dragon Whales now, he couldn’t find them. For now, he has to prioritize the big picture.

He repressed the urge to kill, took a deep breath, and coldly said, “How long will the repairs take? Overall, how many years will it delay the schedule?”

“Est.. estimated to delay the schedule by fifteen years!”

When Yin Fengtu reported, his heart was trembling, fearing that Demon Lord Xietong would lose control and kill him.

If the Kunmu Giant Vessel was already fully completed and operational, with a complete shell and protective shield activated, it would naturally not fear impacts from aquatic Fierce Beasts. Partial damages would be quickly repaired.

But now, not only was the Kunmu Giant Vessel’s shield not activated, but even the outer shell wasn’t entirely assembled. Some intricate instruments inside were in an entirely exposed state for easy debugging, a blow from aquatic Fierce Beasts left it in dire condition.

Fixing everything anew means reordering from the Demonic Dynasty, the speed cannot be fast at all.

“Ten years, this Demon Lord grants you an extension of ten years.” Demon Lord Xietong’s tone was cold, “Exceed by even a day, and I’ll slaughter your entire family.”

“Yes, Demon Lord.”

Like receiving great pardon, Yin Fengtu quickly ran to handle the aftermath, escaping death narrowly.

…

Things weren’t smooth for Demon Lord Xietong, nor for the Demon Sovereign.

He has been fishing in the Demonic Abyss, waiting for an opportunity, for Wang Ruobing to be lured or to leave the Demonic Dynasty herself, heading to an outside battlefield or some remote place.

As long as he glimpses a chance, he will immediately strike with thunderous force, capture her, and absorb her internal power, retrieving the core strength of the Dark True Demon Seed.

Who would have thought, that Ice Phoenix Goddess Wang Ruobing would sit tight in Devil Capital not moving, year after year in closed-door cultivation, ignoring any worldly affairs? Even when Qian Qi repeatedly provoked her, Wang Ruobing remained steadfast, continuing silent cultivation.

Just like that, waiting and waiting, in the blink of an eye, another ten years passed.
