Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 272: Chapter 40: The Might of 守哲! The Power of the Family Head_3

This indicated that the defense level of that Spiritual Artifact was far above his Open Mountain Sword Light, at least it must be a middle grade artifact.

As Muyuanbai was stunned, Wang Shouzhe had already stood up.

“As expected of Brother Yuanbai, the power of Open Mountain Sword Light is indeed exceptional.” Wang Shouzhe laughed freely, “However, if Brother Yuanbai has no stronger moves, I’m afraid you are going to lose.”

Lose?

Muyuanbai chuckled, “Brother Shouzhe, I admit that you are quite incredible. But to say that I’m going to lose – now that’s a joke.”

“Brother Yuanbai, just look under your feet.” Wang Shouzhe calmly said.

Muyuanbai looked down, only to see several green seedlings sprouting among the scattered pieces of the arena floor. They were delicately green, like freshly sprung grass, seemingly fragile.

He was puzzled: “Brother Shouzhe, what are these?”

“Brother Yuanbai, you may have forgotten. I am a student from Changchun Valley.” Wang Shouzhe laughed, “What I’m best at is farming.”

“Good at farming, could this be…?” Muyuanbai’s face changed, “Is this some kind of Battle Spirit Plant?”

Immediately, he instinctively backed away.

But it was already too late.

More than half the arena had sprouted small green tendrils underground, covering the area in a sea of green, like a newly emerged wheat field in spring.

No matter where he went, the seedlings at his feet rapidly grew, instantly transforming into thick robust vines.

They moved like the tentacles of a demon, bewitchingly flaunting like a witch’s long hair. Even the slightest contact with Muyuanbai would trigger a rapid outburst of tendrils that would wrap from his legs up to his waist.

Muyuanbai immediately summoned his Spirit Sword.

The “Cicada Chirp” sword split the vines instantly with its rapid swings.

However, Wang Shouzhe’s Vine Array was never a solo act.

While he was engaged in combat with Wang Shouzhe, a Vine Array was already quietly laid down.

Vines continued to tear at Muyuanbai, no matter where he went or escaped to, vines would grow and then launch fierce attacks against him.

The present vines were several times more formidable than the ones Wang Shouzhe used during the trial, they grew more rapidly, their roots were thicker and stronger and their entangling force was greater. Even so, they still couldn’t resist sharp spiritual artifacts.

However, these vines managed to hamper most of Muyuanbai’s energy, forcing him to continuously cut the vines.

Under these circumstances, Wang Shouzhe could easily injure him with a casual swing of his sword.

“Brother Yuanbai, you have lost.”

Wang Shouzhe said with a faint smile.

As his words fell, he held the shield in his left hand and the sword in his right, directly charging at Muyuanbai. His sword came striking and shield defending, each move honest and straightforward.

In less than half an incense time, Wang Shouzhe’s sword broke Muyuanbai’s protective body Xuan Gang, the impact force shocked him and made him fly out of the arena.

Muyuanbai grunted and managed to stabilize his form only after several hops on the ground with his toes.

At this moment, his image was very embarrassing, but what was more visible on his pale face was disbelief!

He had lost!

He really lost!

He actually lost to a junior student who had just reached the Level One of the Spirit Platform Realm!

His face turned ashen and despondent, almost dazed.

On the stage, Wang Shouzhe put away his sword and shield, respectfully bowing to Muyuanbai from a distance: “Brother Yuanbai, thank you for conceding.”

At this point, Muyuanbai was also a free and easy person.

He chuckled bitterly, returning the courtesy: “Little brother Shouzhe, I am impressed.”

The other party had defeated him properly and fairly, if they were to do it again, the result would not change, even if he didn’t want to admit it, there was no helping it.

When the results of this battle emerged, the various factions naturally had different reactions.

The Disciples of the Lineage of Free and Unrestrained Peak were dispirited, each of them drooping their heads.

Their senior brother Muyuanbai had been defeated. He had been defeated by a disciple from outside Changchun Valley, and the defeat was abject.

If this had happened on Leisure Peak, it might have been more bearable. But they had come to Changchun Valley to learn, and in the end it was Changchun Valley that got a taste of their lesson. Naturally, they were red-faced and full of shame.

“Brother Muyuanbai, it’s okay,” Wang Luoqiu, who had a favorable impression of their suave senior brother, stepped forward to comfort him. “It’s completely normal that you lost to my fourth brother. Even when we girls teamed up, we couldn’t beat him.”

Muyuanbai looked speechless. Was that supposed to be comforting? And sister Luoqiu, if your fourth brother was this powerful, why didn’t you warn him earlier?

In contrast, the people of Changchun Valley were all flush with excitement.

They had been trampled to the bottom of the valley, but unsuspectingly, they had been lifted high to the peak of the mountain. Such drastic shifts in emotion made it hard for any of them to suppress their excitement.

“Junior Brother Shouzhe.”

The sisters from Changchun Valley threw themselves onto the battle stage, fussing over Wang Shouzhe with drinks and handkerchiefs, while surreptitiously slipping him little notes.

Wang Shouzhe sensed a hint of killing intent approaching and turned to see not his wife Liu Ruolan, but his sister-in-law Liu Ruolei, glaring at him with fierce eyes.

But his wife Liu Ruolan was still all smiles, pleasant and affable.

He hurriedly swayed and slipped away using the Willow Catkin Body Method, running back to Liu Ruolan, trying to prove his innocence.

“Wife, those sisters…”

“Husband, you’ve worked hard.” Liu Ruolan picked up a handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat from his brow. “You were truly impressive on the stage just now. It’s normal that the sisters are attracted to your good looks.”

“Uh…” Wang Shouzhe was speechless. Before her transformation, their wife was much easier to talk to.

Suddenly, at this moment.

Senior Brother Jinshan rushed over, calling out excitedly, “Senior Brother Shouzhe.”

Wang Shouzhe was sweating profusely and quickly greeted him, “Senior Brother Jinshan, please don’t be like this!”

“No, no, no. The so-called ‘to the victor go the spoils’. You defeating Muyuanbai has brought great honor to our Changchun Valley lineage,” Senior Brother Jinshan gripped Wang Shouzhe’s hand, his face flushed with excitement. “How many years has it been? How many years since Changchun Valley has had such glory! All thanks to you! To call you a senior brother is only right, if you allow it, I would even call you master.”

Master?

Uh… let’s not joke around.

Wang Shouzhe hurriedly said, “Senior Brother Jinshan, choose your words carefully.”

Then, he added solemnly, “Master Changchun has always taken care of me. It’s only right for me to step in at critical times.”

In the midst of their conversation, dozens of disciples from Changchun Valley surrounded them, all giddy with excitement, calling out “Senior Brother Shouzhe” and looked at him with adoring eyes.

Watching this scene, Wang Shouzhe inwardly mused that his act hadn’t been in vain. At the very least, he had saved face for Master Changchun.

“Senior Brother Shouzhe, why not lead us to visit other sects? We’ve never experienced other peaks or valleys before~” a disciple from Changchun Valley suggested.

“Um…”

Wang Shouzhe hesitated slightly.

“Why not visit the Valley of Ten Thousand Butterflies and meet the beautiful sisters there?”

“I suggest visiting the Tian Lake School.”

The disciples of Changchun Valley put forward their suggestions one after another.

“Stop, stop!” Senior Brother Jinshan sternly reprimanded them. “Stop making such a fuss.”

Senior Brother Jinshan still had quite the imposing presence. Just a word from him and the crowd quieted down immediately.

Wang Shouzhe couldn’t help but secretly praise him. This Senior Brother Jinshan, though usually unscrupulous, was actually quite dependable during crucial moments and kept a cool head.

But just as that thought formed in his mind, Jinshan raised an eyebrow and continued to reprimand the crowd of brothers and sisters, “Your ambitions are too small! What’s there to see in the Valley of Ten Thousand Butterflies or the Tian Lake School?

“If we’re going, let’s go to Mysterious Ice Palace!”

Upon hearing this, Wang Shouzhe stumbled and looked at Jinshan with a crooked eye.

He took back the praise he just thought.

Senior Brother Jinshan was absolutely the most flippant one of all!
