Chapter 377: Chapter 81: Battle of the Celestial Human! The Rise of the Wang Family_3

"Jinning!"

Ancestor Hua Ye roared in immense grief.

He was desperately trying to rescue Huangfu Jinning, but was blocked by the damned Wang Zhoubo. The hatred and anger in his heart surged to the extreme at this moment.

"Wang Zhoubo! Wang Shouzhe! Fine, fine, fine, I’ll swear to repay today’s issues tenfold!"

After speaking, he frantically urged his magical treasure, the "Li Fire Battle Halberd," to push Ancestor Zhoubo back and transformed his body into a fiery meteor, fleeing towards Anjiang.

It was clear that he had no intention to continue fighting. He intended to temporarily withdraw, regroup, and then fight the Wang Family to the death.

However, he had only flown a short distance before he suddenly saw a white line of water roaring from afar on the once turbulent Anjiang.

The next moment.

A massive wave surged to the sky, layer upon layer, towering high into the sky before crashing down on him.

The waves reached the sky, terrifying in momentum, as if the heavens were falling!

"How could there be such a large wave on Anjiang?!"

Ancestor Hua Ye looked up in disbelief, only to see a giant Primordial Water Spirit Turtle leisurely swimming atop the monstrous wave.

Mere winds and waves felt as gentle as spring breezes to turtles, a species with innate affinity for Primordial Water.

And on its back stood a remarkable woman.

She stood with a sword, her delicate and elegant face stern, clothed in a water-blue dress fluttering in the wind, resembling the legendary Goddess Xiangjun, akin to a celestial being.

Needless to say, the woman was none other than the esteemed Madam Wang of Ping’an Wang Family, Liua Ruolan.

Beside her, a blue Primordial Water Spirit Pearl was spinning wildly, releasing torrents of Primordial Water Spiritual Qi into her body.

She appeared to be struggling, her expression tense, her face pale, and there were faint beads of sweat forming on her temples.

Clearly, the massive wave was formed under her control!

Obviously, this had been planned earlier, and it might have started brewing a while ago.

Though the waves didn’t all contain Primordial Water Spiritual Qi, and their actual power couldn’t compare to the formidable magic performed by a Celestial Human Realm Cultivator under Heaven-Human Communication, these waves cleverly utilized the momentum of Anjiang River, sweeping in with the torrent of the river waters.

The force was as mighty as the power of heaven and earth!

Ancestor Hua Ye realized the danger and immediately planned to change direction.

However, it was too late.

The next moment.

The surging waves swept down, crashing onto Ancestor Hua Ye!

"Boom~~!"

In the deafening sound of water, Ancestor Hua Ye was forcibly knocked from the sky into Anjiang, even the fire protecting him dimmed significantly.

"Damn!"

Ancestor Hua Ye’s expression turned extremely unpleasant.

This attack caused little actual harm, but its humiliation was immense, akin to a slap on the face!

Despite his anger reaching its peak, he dared not linger underwater.

A Tier Three Aquatic Ferocious Beast, on land, he could defeat it in a few rounds. But underwater, it would become several times more troublesome. Moreover, his "Red Dragon True Technique" focused on fire, how much power could it wield underwater?

With the advantages and disadvantages shifting, coupled with the water-controlling woman, he might just suffer an unexpected defeat.

"Splash~~!"

With a splash, Ancestor Hua Ye immediately leaped out of the water, looking extremely disheveled.

Yet with even a slight delay, Ancestor Zhoubo had already tightly pursued like a persistent parasite, firmly entangled with Ancestor Hua Ye.

Meanwhile, Ancestor Longyan, Beichen Ancestor, and Wang Shouzhe had also arrived.

Everyone quickly joined the siege against Ancestor Hua Ye.

Wang Longyan and Xu Beichen, known for top-notch combat prowess at the Late Stage Spirit Platform Realm, were still quite far from the Celestial Human Realm, but with Ancestor Zhoubo entangled with Ancestor Hua Ye, they found it much easier to execute their moves.

Especially since their ultimate attacks and special skills also had ample time to be prepared and deployed.

Even someone as strong as Ancestor Hua Ye dared not face their ultimate attacks directly!

Their only downside was the inability to fly long in the sky, needing to occasionally rest on a cliff, on the water, or on a turtle’s back before taking to the air again to join the battle.

Besides, Liua Ruolan also joined the battle.

However, she attacked from a distance, occasionally summoning a water dragon to harass Ancestor Hua Ye. Even if it missed, the water dragon would burst mid-air, turning into heavy rain.

Water innately countered fire, and Ancestor Hua Ye’s flame power was greatly diminished.

But of all these people, the one Hua Ye loathed and felt helpless against the most was Wang Shouzhe.

Wang Shouzhe fought with shield in one hand and sword in the other, exclusively engaging in long-distance harassment by occasionally unleashing sword qi from afar.

Such harassment wouldn’t be a problem normally, the key issue arose when he after managing to drive back Xu Beichen or Wang Longyan, they even suffered some injuries.

But unexpectedly, Wang Shouzhe would approach and in mere moments, heal their wounds.

Each person received a lush green leaf to keep in their mouths while fighting, sustaining their vitality consistently.

With such tactics, the fight naturally became unmanageable.

Ancestor Hua Ye tried several times to retreat, but was persistently pursued by Ancestor Zhoubo, armed with the Geng Metal Battle Saber, pressed above the water’s surface by about fifty feet.

If the situation couldn’t be reversed, continuing to exhaust himself, the mighty Celestial Human Realm combatant might be worn down alive!

Ancestor Hua Ye felt shocked and chilled inside. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

By this point, he no longer underestimated Wang Shouzhe.

He gritted his teeth, his face suddenly revealing an expression of heartache and resolve: "Wang Shouzhe, Wang Zhoubo, you’ve pushed me this far!"

By this point, if anyone was most hated, Wang Shouzhe had definitely topped the list.

After speaking, he seized an opportunity and extracted a palm-sized scale from his storage ring.

The scale was entirely crimson, as crystalline as jade, with red streams gliding over its surface, appearing extraordinary.

"Red Fire Dragon Scale?!" Ancestor Zhoubo, with extensive ancestral knowledge, immediately recognized the item, his face changing drastically, "Isn’t this supposed to be exhausted? Huangfu Family still have this?!"

Due to his opposition to the Huangfu Family, he collected a lot of their intel.

"Snap!"

As he spoke, Ancestor Hua Ye squeezed casually, and the Red Fire Dragon Scale shattered into powder instantly.

The frightening flame energy gushed out, surging into his body through his palm.

"Roar!"

Ancestor Hua Ye roared in immense pain.

In an instant, flames spewed from every pore of his body, amidst the raging fire, a terrible aura started to envelop.

"Hateful one, this is the last Red Fire Dragon Scale of my Huangfu Family!" Ancestor Hua Ye glared with extreme hatred at Wang Shouzhe through fiery eyes, "You deserve to die a thousand deaths to quell my hatred!"

The preciousness of the Red Fire Dragon Scale was unmatched. Its price surpassed many Middle-Grade Spiritual Artifacts, and most importantly, it was extremely rare, only Southern Desert Huangfu Family’s Purple Mansion Realm experts could refine it using Secret Techniques.

When Huangfu Hongyu split from the main vein to open up Changning Guard, he only received three scales.

Two of them were used back when Huangfu Hongyu was developing the land.

The last one had been passed down within the Huangfu Family for over five hundred years, not only serving as a family treasure, but also symbolizing legacy and beliefs, a means of survival and enemy attack in crucial moments.

Unexpectedly, today he was forced to use this item due to Wang Shouzhe’s pressure.

It’s understandable he deeply resents this, as today’s loss is too great!
