Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder!-Chapter 267 - 5: Surviving Direct Lineage of the Annihilated Clan (Part 5)
"Xiaoshu?" Yu Hua kept the name in his mind, but he didn’t realize that he got it wrong. He simply assumed it was that word and didn’t bother to ask Li Shuning.
Li Shuning was indifferent.
The Yu Family belonged to the Human Clan, Li Shuning beside Yu Hua quickly obtained a strand of his hair, and through that hair, she began to unravel Yu Hua’s causal threads, deducing everything about him.
The beloved youngest son of the Yu Clan Leader, huh?
Cultivating in the Heavy Water River isn’t an easy task; the entire body is suppressed, lying at the river bed unable to move.
Only those who thoroughly understand the essence of water and temper their body will find their body merging into the river like a part of it, slowly drifting off the river bed to stand atop the waters.
Yu Hua was also a bright individual; after lying on the bottom of the river for seven days, his body began to float to the surface.
Li Shuning also controlled her body to float to the river surface.
Yu Hua was delighted to see Li Shuning complete her cultivation as well.
Looks like Xiaoshu has pretty good talent.
"Oh, who’s this, it’s the shorty from the Yu Family."
Though they belong to the Divine Clan, not every member is strikingly handsome and tall; the special powers within their bloodline still hold the Divine Clan back.
Yu Hua’s sore point was his height; even standing next to Li Shuning, he was only slightly taller than her. In the past, he hated when others mentioned his height.
"Qianzhu Pig, how do you dare to come out from the Qianzhu Clan Land? With that pig face, you dare to come out?" Yu Hua immediately retaliated.
The Qianzhu Clan is an Insect Clan, akin to centipedes. A millennium ago, the Qianzhu Clan’s ancestor succeeded in cultivation and became part of the Divine Domain.
Back when the Li Family was powerful, the Qianzhu Clan always kept a low profile, but after the Li Family’s annihilation in the storyline, the Qianzhu Clan suddenly emerged and is now among the top ten families in the Divine Domain.
The Qianzhu Clan has a force supporting them.
As an Insect Clan, they still hold some hostility towards the Human Clan.
Especially in the Divine Domain, where seven out of the top ten families are from the Human Clan.
The Qianzhu Clan and the Yu Family have considerable conflict.
The person speaking to Yu Hua was named Qianzhu Tian; his name was quite impressive, yet it didn’t match his appearance at all.
After transforming, Qianzhu Tian is chubby and plump, particularly his face, which looks like a pig’s head, often ridiculed by others.
At this moment, after Yu Hua’s mockery, Qianzhu Tian’s face turned blue and white.
Suddenly, Qianzhu Tian laughed: "Yu Hua, you’re here alone, aren’t you? Oh, and you’ve got a little beauty beside you, hehe..."
An elder beside Qianzhu Tian suddenly attacked, targeting Yu Hua and Li Shuning.
Yu Hua’s expression turned slightly unpleasant; the elder was Qianzhu Tian’s follower, strong and formidable, and Yu Hua hadn’t brought anyone along.
Should he be killed by Qianzhu Tian here, his family wouldn’t even know how he died, they would certainly make sure there’s no evidence left behind.
The elder walked a few steps from afar, but in the next instant, he appeared directly in front of Yu Hua and Li Shuning.
The elder merely lifted his hand and pushed it forward, seemingly aiming to push Yu Hua.
Li Shuning suddenly lunged at Yu Hua, standing in front of him.
The elder’s handprint lightly imprinted on Li Shuning’s chest.
In the next moment, Li Shuning spewed a mouthful of blood, which accurately splattered onto the elder’s face.
And following closely from behind, Qianzhu Tian was caught watching Yu Hua’s fate unfold.
Some of the blood Li Shuning spat flew into Qianzhu Tian’s eyes.
Initially, Qianzhu Tian intended to dodge, yet inexplicably, he didn’t.
Yu Hua’s expression was very unpleasant, yet his heart was deeply moved.
This woman, whom he hadn’t known long, actually stood in front of him.
The attack came too unexpectedly, he had many tricks up his sleeve but didn’t react in time.
At that moment, Yu Hua suddenly took out a jade-carved Yu Meiren.
Yu Meiren is a symbolic representation of the Yu Family.
Yu Hua suddenly dripped a drop of blood onto the Yu Meiren, and next, the jade emitted a brilliant red light, enveloping Yu Hua and Li Shuning.
The elder suddenly roared, crossed his arms, and a white light appeared, blocking the red light’s invasion.
"Young Master, quickly leave."
Realizing the missed opportunity, Qianzhu Tian promptly withdrew.
In a moment, the elder was consumed by the red light.
Qianzhu Tian had already vanished.
After a short time, a large red ship quickly approached from the horizon towards Yu Hua.
The ship bore the imprint of the Yu Meiren, clearly indicating the Yu Family’s arrival.
"Young Master, are you alright?"
"I’m fine, is there a Witch God aboard?"
"Is the young master injured?"
"No, it’s Xiaoshu, she took a blow for me from the Jiao Ghost, quickly save her."
The person leading the ship was evidently of high status, yet after glancing at Yu Hua, he waved his hand, allowing a Witch God to step forward, covering Li Shuning with a gentle light.
After a while, the Witch God spoke: "Young Master, this Goddess isn’t in much trouble, she seems to have something protecting her vitals, but she’s still shaken. Given the disparity in power, she needs good rest to recover over time."
Li Shuning was taken back to the Yu Family by Yu Hua.
Yu Hua’s father scrutinized Li Shuning, investigated her thoroughly and deduced her causal threads, finding no suspicious clues, he said no more.
Due to these events, Yu Hua put even more effort into cultivation, a beneficial thing for Yu Hua.
Considering that the woman saved Yu Hua in distress; letting her stay in the Yu Family, how about it?
Of course, should Yu Hua truly favor this woman, he could accept her as a concubine later.
If she harbors any ulterior motives, hmph, a mere woman is no match for the Yu Family.
When Li Shuning awoke, she knew her goal had been achieved.
The elder’s attack was nothing serious, yet she intentionally suppressed her aura, purposely injuring herself.
Yu Meiren is a very beautiful flower, unfortunately, its symbolism isn’t favorable.
Li Shuning subsequently followed Yu Hua, joining him in cultivation.
The Yu Family members were unconcerned.
Yu Hua was the Clan Leader’s youngest son and much adored; many places in the Yu Family were accessible to him, naturally, Li Shuning also observed much regarding the Yu Family.
Li Shuning stayed in the Yu Family, waiting for the celebration held by the Yu Family at the start of March.
The Yu Meiren blooms in March; when the first Yu Meiren blooms, the Yu Family holds a celebration.
It’s held annually; for the Divine Clan, time holds little meaning, yet the Yu Family hosts grand observances every year because the celebration signifies the family’s honor.
Li Shuning witnessed the festival’s fervor.
She also saw the Yu Family present nine large, unknown red Yu Meiren crafted, placing them on the altar.
The altar stirred a faint sense of familiarity within Li Shuning.
It’s the Power of Faith.
