Protect Our Chief-Chapter 666 - 78: Shouzhe! The Blessings of the Qi People
...
Two hours later.
The raging waves and storm finally began to dissipate gradually.
Within the Water Moon Celestial Pavilion, the tranquility of the past was restored.
On the platform by the water, the sunset was a fiery red. Wang Shouzhe, draped in a robe, lay comfortably in a chair, his eyes half closed as if resting, while fiddling with an ancient jade pendant in his hands.
A moment later.
Liua Ruolan brought over a pot of "Snow Crystal Rice Porridge with Cooked Rice Cakes," tenderly saying, "This blood-replenishing porridge is personally made for my husband. You’ve been working hard for these past months."
The rice is the finest Snow Crystal Spirit Rice, which only grows in rare Ice Spiritual Veins. From planting to harvest, it requires a full three-year period to mature, making it extremely nutritious, beneficial for the body and spirit.
The dish is made with superior Anjiang Red-blooded Spirit Eel. Its firm, tender, and smooth flesh offers benefits of nourishing Qi and enhancing the blood. Together with some special Spiritual Medicines, this porridge is a tonic of great value.
At this moment, Liua Ruolan’s cheeks were slightly flushed, her complexion radiant and full of charm. Having already borne two sons and two daughters for Wang Shouzhe, she was actually close to forty years old. Yet, her skin seemed more delicate and smooth than when she first married, moist and flawless.
The greater change is reflected in the maturity and allure that replaced the innocence of her youthful years.
Wang Shouzhe’s heart fluttered slightly. He placed the porridge to the side, grasping Liua Ruolan’s gentle jade hand, saying, "My dear wife, as the matron of the house, you handle countless household affairs and take care of Liyue and Zongrui. In the future, let the cook handle such small tasks."
"How could that be?" Liua Ruolan’s brows slightly arched as she softly said, "Before I got married, mother always advised. No matter how busy I am, I should take some time to personally cook some delicacies for my husband."
"Yes, yes, my wife is right." Wang Shouzhe shook the jade pendant quickly, shifting the topic, "Dear wife, look, what is this?"
"This jade pendant, is it really the ancient jade pendant you mentioned earlier, my husband? Does it really contain a residual soul?" Liua Ruolan asked, slightly curious, as she picked up the jade pendant, "I’ve lived so long, yet I’ve never seen a residual soul."
"Be careful, my dear wife, that Old Ghost Jiang is full of cunning tricks." Wang Shouzhe cautioned.
However, before Liua Ruolan could respond, Old Ghost Jiang Yuchen, who had been lurking within the jade pendant for a long time, began to act.
The jade pendant suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and the residual soul illusion of Old Ghost Jiang Yuchen shot out from within, lunging towards Liua Ruolan with claws bared.
Accompanying it was the sound of his divine soul shaking the air.
"Hahaha~~~ Wang brat, you were too careless. Just because you had the upper hand once, you underestimated me. Do you really think I’m a pushover?! Once I’ve possessed her Spirit Platform, let’s see what you can do to me!"
To be honest, Old Ghost Jiang Yuchen didn’t want to possess a woman’s body, but ever since he fell into Wang Shouzhe’s hands, he had been abandoned in a storage ring, never seeing the light of day. This opportunity was just too precious.
If he missed it, he might end up back in the storage ring. Even if it meant living as a woman for the rest of his life, it was better than having his divine soul destroyed and disappearing without a trace.
This...
Wang Shouzhe found this scene particularly familiar.
Wasn’t this the same as when Old Ghost Jiang tried to parasitize his Spirit Platform?
With his feeble divine soul power, he couldn’t even manage Wang Shouzhe, yet he dared to attempt to parasitize Liua Ruolan... truly, ignorance is bliss.
As expected.
Just as Old Ghost Jiang’s divine soul went to penetrate Liua Ruolan’s brow and invade her Spirit Platform, a blue light flashed in her clear eyes. Under the convergence of powerful divine thought, a Dharma illusion suddenly formed behind her.
It was an illusion of a Divine Lady resembling the Xiangfei Goddess, with a graceful figure, surrounded by incredibly pure Power of Primordial Water. The pressure it exuded was vast and grandlike the boundless ocean.
With just a glance, the powerful divine thought pressure firmly suppressed Old Ghost Jiang’s residual soul.
Old Ghost Jiang felt as if he was being crushed by a massive peak, rendering even the smallest movement of his residual soul impossible. Moreover, the powerful and terrifying divine thought power seemed about to rip apart his delicate residual being.
"How, how is this possible?" His residual soul consciousness instantly plunged into endless fear, almost shrieking in rage, "Why is your divine thought power so strong? How can it be even more terrifying than that Wang brat?!"
In this moment, he felt close to madness.
What kind of freakish family is this Wang clan?
The previous Great Celestial Pride, who wielded the Ice Evil Power, was already beyond Old Ghost Jiang’s imagination.
Even in the Cold Moon Immortal Dynasty, a Great Celestial Pride is extremely rare and revered.
Yet, in this small rural corner, in a tiny Noble Family, he had witnessed, one, two, three, a full three Great Celestial Prides!
Could they actually be from the Daqian Royal Race?
No, no, no, impossible. He had once parasitized Zuoqiu Qingyun’s Spirit Platform and understood this world. Even within the Daqian Royal Race, Great Celestial Prides were few and far between.
What on earth is this monstrous family?!
Unbeknownst to him.
Though Old Ghost Jiang’s heart was in chaos, Liua Ruolan was equally unprepared for such a hideous sliver of a residual soul daring to attempt a divine soul parasite upon her.
Once she realized what was happening, her surprise swiftly transformed into fierce determination as an aura cold as ice spread throughout her being.
