Protect Our Patriarch
Book 5: Chapter 159: Fear of Death Wang Shouzhe

……

The sneezing incident was just a minor interlude.

After the initial surprise, Wang Shouzhe refocused his attention on the treatment.

This treatment was crucial. After more than two years of recuperation, the Chaoyang King's physical condition had improved significantly, allowing for more room to maneuver in detoxifying the poison.

This time, he intended to give the poison a hard blow.

Wang Lixian's sturdy branch reached in through the window, loosely wrapping around the Chaoyang King's other arm. A continuous flow of abundant life force surged into the Chaoyang King's body, assisting Wang Shouzhe in expelling the stubborn poison.

Meanwhile.

At the Immortal Palace.

In the square at the entrance of the Ice Holy Land.

The Immortal Sovereign's sudden outburst left the real immortals and disciples of the Ice Holy Land bewildered.

What's up with this Wang Shouzhe? Why does the Immortal Sovereign hold such a grudge against him?

No wonder they couldn't comprehend it.

Despite the recent frequent activities of the Changning Wang's Clan, causing trouble in Northern Zhou, supporting the Liang Kingdom, and Wang Ningxi stirring things up in the Immortal Capital, the involved continents, countries, and specific events were all different, lacking a coherent system.

Even if news reached the Immortal Dynasty, only a few who knew the details could connect these events.

Moreover, the real immortals and disciples in the Immortal Palace were usually busy with various matters and didn't have the time to keep an eye on the movements of the affiliated countries of the Immortal Dynasty, so it was normal for them to be unaware of the details.

However, Frostburn True Monarch, the master of the Ice Holy Land, seemed to know something, and he was lost in thought for a moment.

After taking several deep breaths, Lingxuan Immortal Sovereign finally managed to control his anger and gradually calmed down.

He wiped his face and spoke kindly to Binglan Ascetic, "Since you already have a plan, let's proceed as you suggested. When you establish the Holy Land, our Immortal Palace will fully support you."

Opening another Holy Land would also enhance the overall strength of the Immortal Palace, naturally pleasing the Immortal Sovereign.

"Thank you, Immortal Sovereign."

Binglan Ascetic sincerely bowed to the Immortal Sovereign, then looked at Frostburn True Monarch and said calmly, "Senior Frostburn, let's discuss how to distribute the assets of the Ice Holy Land."

Frostburn True Monarch looked distressed, "Binglan, please be lenient."

"Senior, what are you saying? We're all family, even if we split, we're still connected." Binglan Ascetic rarely smiled, but it was like a mouse falling into an oil jar, "Let's take stock first, see how many spiritual veins, divine spirit artifacts, inheritance grounds, and divine ability masters we have..."

Frostburn True Monarch's heart bled, but he was helpless and had to be dragged aside by Binglan Ascetic to discuss the specifics.

The Immortal Sovereign didn't forget to remind, "Frostburn, you're the senior, keep the big picture in mind."

Frostburn True Monarch naturally agreed, but internally, he was collapsing.

It's not like they're dividing your Immortal Sovereign's assets, being generous with others' things is easy for anyone.

Zhang Huaibing, who had been watching the drama unfold, finally sensed something was wrong: "…Oh no~ I haven't even inherited the Ice Holy Land yet, and the assets are already down by over thirty percent?"

"Uh… seems like that's the case."

Wang Yingxuan and Wang Lici looked at him with sympathy in their eyes.

"Brother, don't take it too hard." Wang Zongsheng patted his shoulder, comforting him, "Assets can be accumulated over time. When my Fourth Uncle inherited the Wang's Clan, we didn't have much, but look at us now."

Speaking of which, he remembered something and suggested, "By the way, you're quite skilled. We can team up and earn some merits on the outer region battlefield. More people mean more support."

"Don't touch me, I'm still young, I can't go to the outer region battlefield." Zhang Huaibing pushed Wang Zongsheng away disdainfully, cursing inwardly.

Of course, you wouldn't take it to heart. It's your master who's dividing the assets, and your family is benefiting. Let's see if you can still say such things when it's your turn to split the inheritance.

"This is a clear path to wealth~"

Seeing Binglan Ascetic smoothly dividing the assets, Wang Yingxuan couldn't resist flying to the Immortal Sovereign, looking at him expectantly with big eyes, "Master, I want to establish my own branch too. How about giving me some assets?"

Though just a named disciple, calling him "Master" wasn't inappropriate~

The Immortal Sovereign glared at her disdainfully, "Shoo, shoo~ Stop daydreaming and find a place to cultivate properly. If you want to establish your own branch, you need at least the Divine Realm, no, the Void Realm."

"Why?" Wang Yingxuan looked aggrieved, "Binglan Ascetic could establish a branch as soon as he reached the Divine Realm, why do I have to wait until the Void Realm?"

The Immortal Sovereign looked at her with exasperation, "First, your Lingxu Codex was given by the Immortal Palace, while he obtained his through his own skills and inheritance, how can they be the same?"

"Second, your bloodline aptitude is high, and your current priority should be improving your cultivation. Establishing a Holy Land is a tedious and unrewarding task that requires a lot of time and energy, delaying your cultivation would be a loss."

With that, he waved his hand impatiently, "Work hard on your cultivation, stop thinking about those things. Also, write a letter to your grandfather Wang Shouzhe, telling him to stop eyeing our Immortal Palace's assets. Our Immortal Palace may be large, but we have no surplus."

Wang Yingxuan was speechless.

She understood, the Immortal Sovereign was starting to guard against her grandfather continuing to fleece the Immortal Palace.

While they were talking.

A Purple Mansion Realm gatekeeper from the Immortal Palace suddenly flew over in a hurry.

After greeting the Immortal Sovereign and other bigwigs, he looked at Wang Lici and Wang Yingxuan, respectfully reporting, "Fairy Yingxuan, Fairy Lici, a young visitor named Wang Jidie has arrived at the Immortal Palace gate, claiming to be Princess Huari of East Qian and a member of your Wang's Clan."

"Wang Jidie?" Wang Yingxuan immediately became excited, "She is indeed a child of our family. The family mentioned her in their letters. Quick, take us to see her."

"Huari?" The Immortal Sovereign's face tightened, quickly asking, "Could this be the Huari Little Princess the Immortal Emperor mentioned to me in a message some time ago?"

"Huh? Master, you've heard of our Die'er?" Wang Yingxuan looked curious and puzzled.

"I've heard. Of course, I've heard." The Immortal Sovereign took a deep breath, his expression and body language filled with resistance and vigilance, "She recently coaxed two Immortal Emperor Orders from the Immortal Emperor, why is she suddenly visiting our Immortal Palace?"

"Uh… coaxed two Immortal Emperor Orders?" Wang Yingxuan was also shocked, "Our Wang's Clan truly has talents emerging in every generation. Master, with the Immortal Emperor as an example, you can't be stingy~ Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to mention in the future."

The Immortal Sovereign's face turned black.

He waved his sleeve, and the entire projection began to dissolve into points of light.

"Yingxuan, I almost forgot, I'm still in seclusion~ I won't be coming out for the next three to five years."

"Master… don't run." Wang Yingxuan was speechless, "This is a projection, what seclusion?"

"What's wrong with a projection? A projection can also comprehend the laws of the Heavenly Dao." The Immortal Sovereign's voice lingered from the void.

As the words fell, the projection completely dissipated.

It was evident that he was scared of being fleeced and decided to avoid it, lest the Wang's Clan fleece him for more.

……

Meanwhile.

In the distant Great Qian, there was a small Ping'an Town, within which lay the Stay Immortal Valley.

Stay Immortal Residence No. 1 Cottage.

After some renovations, the current Stay Immortal Residence No. 1 Cottage was much larger than before.

Wang Lixian's massive canopy-like crown extended from the formation core to above the cottage, almost covering half the courtyard in its shade.

In the sunlight, the large leaves exuded a vibrant green, resembling pieces of green jade.

Rich life force, accompanied by immortal spirit energy, permeated the air, making the entire cottage seem like a fairyland, extraordinarily ethereal, and even the air was much fresher than outside.

Suddenly.

A slender branch reached over the courtyard wall, probing left and right, as if observing the situation inside the courtyard.

After a moment, seeing no one in the courtyard, it cautiously climbed onto the wall.

It turned out to be a slender and adorable little sapling.

This little sapling was none other than the Tree of Fortune, Wang Bao Fu, brought back to the Wang's Clan by the Chaoyang King for recuperation.

After nearly three years of nurturing, the Tree of Fortune was now much sturdier than when it first arrived, with lush and beautiful leaves, looking full of vitality, a stark contrast to the malnourished, wilted sapling it once was.

On its branches perched two small, chubby birds, one red and one white, while on the other side of the courtyard wall, a small dragon head peeked out, revealing Wang Lilong in her shrunken form.

"Yiya ya~ Yiya yaya?"

Wang Bao Fu shook its branches, worriedly asking Wang Lilong beside it.

It was the Chaoyang King who sent it back to the Wang's Clan from the Immortal Dynasty, treating it well along the way. If the Chaoyang King's poison couldn't be cured, he wouldn't have many years left. Although it had confidence in Ancestor Lixian's abilities, it was still a bit worried.

"Bao Fu, rest assured~ With Father and Sister Lixian's abilities, there's definitely no problem." Wang Lilong casually comforted it, then perked up her ears, continuing to eavesdrop on the situation inside the cottage.

In fact, the cottage was equipped with isolation restrictions, so she couldn't hear anything. But that didn't stop her from waiting for the results.

Perhaps because older people tend to enjoy lively environments, ever since this No. 1 Cottage was assigned to the Chaoyang King and his wife, it became the most popular place among the younger generation.

Especially the Chaoyang King's husband, Yao Yuangang, who always had delicious snacks and was particularly good at storytelling, making him especially popular among the children.

Other younger members of the Wang's Clan were deterred by the couple's authority and didn't dare to visit often, but Wang Lilong and her friends had no such concerns, frequently coming here to enjoy the food and drink.

If Wang Jidie hadn't gone to the Immortal Dynasty, she would likely be on the wall too.

No one knew how much time had passed when the large tree above shook, and Wang Lixian's voice came from the canopy, "The treatment is over. Everything went smoothly."

"Yiya yiya~"

Wang Bao Fu and Wang Lilong were immediately overjoyed.

Meanwhile.

Inside the No. 1 Cottage.

The Chaoyang King, having completed a round of treatment, was leaning tiredly on the Luohan bed. Her face was pale, her forehead sweaty, but her spirits were good.

Wang Shouzhe sat on a stool beside her, one hand on her wrist, patiently and meticulously checking her physical condition.

A clone of Wang Lixian stood beside him, while on the other side was the Chaoyang King's husband, Yao Yuangang, looking tense.

After a while, Wang Shouzhe released her hand, smiling and congratulating the Chaoyang King, "Congratulations, Your Highness. This treatment was effective, and nearly half of the residual poison in your body has been removed. At this rate, within ten years, the poison in your body will be completely eradicated."

After a round of treatment, he was also quite exhausted, but his expression was full of relief.

Unknowingly, the Chaoyang King and her husband had been living with the Wang's Clan for nearly three years, and the terrifying poison in her body had significantly improved after multiple treatments.

However, as the saying goes, "illness comes like a mountain, but goes like spinning silk," the remaining residual poison was often the most stubborn. Although this round of treatment was effective, completely clearing the residual poison would still take time.

Fortunately, after conditioning, the Chaoyang King's physical condition was much better than before, and the remaining poison could basically be suppressed by herself, making it just a matter of time to clear the residual poison.

"This king's poison can be cured, thanks to you and Lixian. Without Lixian's immortal spirit energy nourishing my foundation, I wouldn't have recovered so quickly. I feel much lighter now." The process of extracting the poison wasn't easy, and the Chaoyang King was almost exhausted, but her expression was indescribably relaxed.

Before coming to the Wang's Clan, she never thought she could have a day of recovery.

Wang Shouzhe, however, laughed, "If it weren't for the Spiritual Wood Essence sent by Your Highness and True Lord of Profound Water, Lixian wouldn't have broken through to the ninth rank so quickly, and the treatment wouldn't have been so effective. Ultimately, it's because you two sowed good seeds and reaped good fruits."

The relationship between the poison and the Chaoyang King's vitality was one of mutual consumption. The better the Chaoyang King's constitution was conditioned, the more vigorous her vitality, and the less the poison could stir up trouble.

If Lixian hadn't advanced to the ninth rank, the treatment effect would have been at most half of what it was now.

"Alright~ you two stop being so polite, repeating this every treatment, aren't you tired of saying it? I'm tired of hearing it." The Chaoyang King's husband, Yao Yuangang, interrupted their politeness with a wry smile.

He had been nervously guarding the side since Wang Shouzhe began the treatment, and now that he was finally relieved, he gently embraced the Chaoyang King, "Chaoyang, how do you feel? Do you want to rest for a while?"

"Yes~ Chaoyang King Grandma, you should rest for a while~" Wang Lixian's clone also advised, "The treatment process is very physically demanding. Your body is still weak, it's best to meditate and consolidate your recovery immediately."

As they spoke.

Wang Shouzhe's nose suddenly felt itchy again, and he couldn't help but sneeze several times in a row.

He frowned deeply, "Which bigwig is thinking of me so persistently? Just finished cursing me once, and now they're eager for a second round?"

"Perhaps Shouzhe has really offended a True Immortal." The Chaoyang King laughed, "You should be careful in the future, lest you get into trouble."

"No worries, no worries, I, Wang Shouzhe, always handle things uprightly, not afraid of being remembered." Wang Shouzhe said calmly.

"Of course, Shouzhe, you're the most principled family head I've ever seen." The Chaoyang King praised him, then remembered something and asked, "By the way, Shouzhe. I heard from Senior Di Xiu that you're planning to go to the Demon Zhao Kingdom this time to handle some matters?"

At this point, her expression turned serious.

"Didn't expect, Senior Di Xiu can't keep secrets either." Wang Shouzhe laughed lightly, "That's right, I need to go out to handle some matters, so I entrusted Senior Di Xiu to send a clone for protection."

"Although the Demon Zhao Kingdom is just a subordinate state of the Demon Dynasty, it's still on the Demon Dynasty's territory and not far from the Demon Dynasty's mainland." The Chaoyang King said gravely, "Moreover, this Demon Zhao Kingdom is quite powerful, with one emperor, three kings, and a Holy Master, a total of five Void Realm cultivators. Shouzhe, I think you should be more cautious."

"Rest assured, Your Highness, Shouzhe has prepared quite thoroughly." Wang Shouzhe cupped his hands, "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."

"How about this, my old injuries have improved a lot recently, and fighting for a short time isn't much of an issue." The Chaoyang King suggested, "Let Old Wei guard the house, and I'll accompany you personally to ensure your safety."

"Your Highness…"

Wang Shouzhe was about to refuse but was stopped by the Chaoyang King.

"Shouzhe, you're a core figure of the Wang's Clan, and I see you as a future pillar of the human race, this matter can't be taken lightly. Besides, you're aware of my injuries, they're not a big issue anymore."

"Shouzhe, Chaoyang is right." Yao Yuangang also persuaded, "For our human race to become strong and resist the outer region demons, we need more than just strong combat power. In my view, your significance to the human race is far greater than the two of us combined. Protecting you is the right thing to do."

"Alright, let's take an extra precaution then."

Wang Shouzhe stood up, bowed deeply to the two, and solemnly said, "This matter, I'll trouble Your Highness and True Monarch."

……

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, two or three months had passed.

On this day, the weather was fine, with clear skies.

On the vast and boundless azure sea, even on sunny days, the waves could often reach two meters high. The waves, driven by the wind, rolled into the air, stirring countless white spray.

In the sky, large-winged seabirds let out high-pitched cries.

A massive black back slowly emerged from the sea, accompanied by a spout of water and a long, resonant call.

Under the golden sunlight, the colors of the world were magnificent and splendid, vast and distant, with only a few scattered lives dotting the scene, as if it were a meticulously painted picture.

But beneath the unseen surface, hidden beneath the sea, surged powerful undercurrents and brutal hunts.

At the horizon where the sea met the sky.

Several ironclad ships were cutting through the waves, sailing from the other side of the horizon, from the endless sea.

The leading flagship was over thirty meters long, covered entirely in dark iron armor. Under the sunlight, the massive ship's body gleamed coldly, resembling a moving steel fortress on the sea, deeply impressive.

This giant ironclad ship was named "Ping'an," the latest ironclad warship successfully developed and launched by the Wang's Clan, with a total cost comparable to a Divine Spirit Artifact.

Of course, its powerful performance matched its expensive cost.

The Ping'an was equipped with fifty-two of the latest Divine Might Cannons, with the largest two, the bow and stern cannons, being the behemoths among Divine Might Cannons, capable of firing pre-loaded explosive shells over a hundred miles.

Even a Purple Mansion Realm cultivator, if hit directly, would likely meet a tragic end.

Of course, Purple Mansion Realm cultivators fly extremely fast and are small humanoid creatures. Using giant Divine Might Cannons on them is like using a cannon to shoot mosquitoes, with a terribly low hit rate.

However, Divine Might Cannons have their uses. In ship battles or when bombarding ports and other locations, their destructive power and lethality come into play.

Especially when bombarding defensive formations, they're much more efficient than cultivators using treasures and profound techniques.

Additionally, Divine Might Cannons are quite effective against large fierce beasts.

Outer region demons are actually a civilized race, aggressive and enslaving many powerful large fierce beasts for their use. Therefore, these Divine Might Cannons are also very effective for city defense.

Moreover, the Wang's Clan's research on Divine Might Cannons is ongoing, and even Wang Shouzhe doesn't know how far they can develop in the future.

Things are no longer as they were. With his current depth of knowledge, if he were to meddle in the research institute, he'd likely be kicked out.

Compared to specialized researchers, his only remaining advantage is his "insight" and "imagination."

Regarding "imagination," some of his ideas can still be adopted by his daughter Wang Liyue.

This ironclad fleet represents the pinnacle of the Wang's Clan's current naval warfare capabilities.

And now, this ironclad fleet is heading towards the Demon Zhao Kingdom.

That's right!

Wang Shouzhe was taking an entire ironclad fleet and half a battle group to tackle a mission.

On the bridge.

The Chaoyang King was enjoying the sea breeze, relishing the pleasant journey.

However, her gaze towards Wang Shouzhe was somewhat wistful, "Shouzhe, you can forget what I said earlier about being cautious, just consider it nonsense."

The Chaoyang King had fought battles all her life and had never seen anyone as cautious as Wang Shouzhe.

She initially thought Wang Shouzhe would take a few people, travel lightly, and return after handling matters. Who knew…

This wasn't just going out to handle matters; it was clearly going to war, wasn't it?

Even the Immortal Emperor's outings weren't as grand as this.

So much so that the Chaoyang King was now regretting it.

Why did she volunteer to protect Wang Shouzhe? Wouldn't it have been better to stay at the Stay Immortal Residence, play cards, and drink tea? She worried for nothing.

Look at the kind of guards he has around him? Yin Snake Demon Concubine Ji Yue'er, Lingyun Holy Master Jiang Zhencang, Di Xiu's clone, and the Yuan Shui Old Dragon, uh… and Dragon Whale King Long Jingjing, along with a bunch of seventh to tenth rank Dragon Whales escorting in the water, and in the sky, many Yuan Shui Azure Dragons escorting.

Of course, now you have to add her, the Chaoyang King, this simpleton.

Also, he even carries the Immortal Emperor Order with him!

She really couldn't figure out how many trump cards Wang Shouzhe had. Who knows what else he was hiding.

"Uh… haha, better safe than sorry." Wang Shouzhe said somewhat awkwardly, "Being well-prepared can prevent many accidents. Didn't you say I'm very important to the human race and can't be careless?"

"Is this what you call not being careless? This is what I call being overly cautious." The Chaoyang King gave him a fierce look, "I'm going back to rest, find them to play cards."

"Farewell, Your Highness." Wang Shouzhe saluted.

After the Chaoyang King left.

Wang Shouzhe walked to the bow.

Under the massive Divine Might Cannon at the bow, there was a comfortable spiritual bamboo lounge chair, in which lay a two to three-meter-long big-headed fat fish.

The big-headed fat fish wore sunglasses, leisurely wagging its tail, with two plump "domineering" sisters on either side. They were ninth-rank Dragon Whales in human form, smiling as they served their Young Master Kun.

"Young Master Zong Kun." Dragon Whale Sister A massaged Wang Zongkun while asking warmly, "You swam a hundred miles for reconnaissance earlier, you must be exhausted, right? Are your fins sore? Let me massage them for you."

"Ang ang!"

The big-headed fat fish let out a comfortable sound, slightly opening its huge mouth.

"Young Master Zong Kun is hungry."

Dragon Whale Sister B immediately understood, letting out a few "ang chi ang chi" sounds.

Soon, two teams of Dragon Whales gathered on either side of the giant ironclad ship.

Their massive tails slapped the sea surface, and some seafood they had long captured and confined flew onto the ironclad ship's deck, covering it with a thud.

Then, the two Dragon Whale sisters used their divine abilities to lift various fish and seafood into the air, feeding them in large handfuls into the big-headed fat fish's mouth.

And the big-headed fat fish, Wang Zongkun, only needed to open and close his mouth to swallow a large amount of delicious food. His belly, like a bottomless pit, remained unchanged despite consuming tons of seafood.

Seeing this scene.

Wang Shouzhe's face turned black.

He quickly walked forward, sneering, "Young Master Zong Kun, isn't it too few to have just two Dragon Whale sisters serving you? Do you want me to call a few more Yuan Shui Azure Dragon sisters for you?"

"No… need?" Wang Zongkun, wearing sunglasses and closing his eyes, seemed a bit hesitant, "Sister Lilong will beat me, go away, don't disturb… uh, this voice?"

"Greetings, Family Head."

The two Dragon Whale sisters were startled when they saw Wang Shouzhe, hurriedly saluting and reminding Wang Zongkun.

Sure enough.

Upon hearing "Family Head," Wang Zongkun seemed electrified, his tail flicking as he jumped up, quickly shrinking to a "few feet long" mini size, curling his tail in terror, "Father, why are you here? Weren't you in a meeting?"

"Look at you, what have you become? What's this about being tired after swimming a hundred miles?" Wang Shouzhe's face was dark as he gave him a flick on the forehead, scolding, "Look at you, where's the Kun in you? Lazy, idle, and listless, you even need to be fed."

"Family Head, please spare Young Master Zong Kun." The two Dragon Whale sisters were heartbroken seeing Wang Zongkun being scolded, pleading bitterly, "It's all our fault."

Wang Shouzhe ignored them, his face dark as he picked up Wang Zongkun, "Why are you wearing sunglasses? Who in our family wears sunglasses?"

With that, he grabbed his sunglasses and pulled, but they wouldn't come off.

The sunglasses were secured with a strap, a very elastic one.

"Snap!"

When Wang Shouzhe let go, the sunglasses snapped back, hitting Wang Zongkun's face, making him cry out "ang chi ang chi" in pain.

"?"

Wang Shouzhe's expression changed from confusion to delight, his eyes fixed on the elastic strap, "Where did this rubber band come from?"

All along, Wang Shouzhe hadn't found real rubber, only using shellac as a substitute. But shellac's production was too low, and its performance wasn't as good as real rubber, which limited the large-scale promotion of many products requiring shellac.

He never expected that the rubber he couldn't find would casually appear on Wang Zongkun's sunglasses.

"Father, I won't dare anymore, I won't dare anymore~!" Wang Zongkun was so frightened he turned pale, his fins tightly hugging Wang Shouzhe's leg, crying, "Father, I know I was wrong. As a son, I shouldn't indulge in pleasure. I can give the two Dragon Whale sisters to you, please don't be angry with me."

He thought to himself, Sister Lilong and Sister Xian'er had given concubines to Father, but he hadn't.

No wonder Father was always strict with him, Father was blaming him for being unfilial!

"You!"Wang Shouzhe glared, almost losing his breath, and kicked it away with a swift motion. "Go swim in the sea and exercise. Look at how fat you've become."

"Splash!"

Wang Zongkun burst out with a huge splash of water, and after a while, a massive fish head re-emerged from the sea.

His big, round eyes were filled with tears as he pitifully complained, "Father, I'm a Kun~~ I was born to roam through space, swimming isn't really my forte. Please don't really think of me as a fish. Also, being 'fat' is just me storing energy."

Well... that does seem to make sense.

Wang Shouzhe was at a loss for words.

However, as a father, could he be wrong?

He immediately coughed and sternly commanded, "Hurry up and swim."

Wang Zongkun had no choice but to dive into swimming exercises, followed closely by a group of Dragon Whale guards.

"Master, Master..." Two elder Dragon Whale sisters looked at Wang Shouzhe eagerly.

"Don't misunderstand..."

Wang Shouzhe was about to explain, but before he could finish, he noticed the Nine Yin Demon Envoy had somehow appeared at the bow of the ship, standing timidly under the Divine Might Cannon, looking at Wang Shouzhe with extreme fear in her eyes.

In that moment, the Nine Yin Demon Envoy's emotions were complex and on the verge of collapse.

The Master had never truly accepted her, never really taken her as a concubine. Could it be that his tastes were just too peculiar?
