Protect Our Clan Leader

Almost instantly, Wang Licui wanted to surrender. She didn’t want to play anymore; this was too much.

A Spirit Platform Realm demon puppet.

Just hearing that name made Wang Licui’s legs tremble, draining all the strength from her body.

The Spirit Platform Realm demon puppet, glinting with a cruel and brutal light in its eyes, sized her up and closed in on her step by step, like toying with its prey.

Its spiritual intelligence was clearly incomparable to that of a Vital Energy Refining Realm Demon Puppet, and its wisdom was more formidable.

“I, I, I, I surr—” Before Wang Licui could finish her surrender declaration, she heard Wang Shouzhe shouting from below, “Licui, you can’t surrender. No matter what, you need to test its power first.”

Damn testing its power!

Wang Licui was almost driven to cursing. What was there to test in the power of a Spirit Platform Realm Demon Puppet?

There’s no way to defeat it anyway.

Fourth Uncle, it’s easy for you to talk. If you’re so capable, why don’t you take it on yourself? This thing is on the same level as the old ancestors of each family.

Having lived under the protection of an old Ancestor for a long time, Wang Licui naturally revered the Spirit Platform Realm, and she was already 80% frightened before the battle even started.

“One year,” Wang Shouzhe called out. “All you need to do is fight, win or lose. Whatever you want to eat for this year, eat.”

“Really?” Wang Licui suddenly found her spirits lifted, gaining a bit of courage. “Then let’s give it a try.”

Nearly the moment her words fell, the demon puppet made a “whoosh” sound and attacked with blistering speed towards Wang Licui.

Such speed! Wang Shouzhe’s pupils shrank. He expected this demon puppet’ speed to be at least 30%-40% faster than his. If they encountered it in the wild, escaping would likely be difficult.

Its claws were even thicker and sharper, swiping towards Wang Licui with a forceful wind, capable of ripping apart even a block of iron.

But Wang Licui, after all, was a Double Bloodline Awakened warrior, barely managing to raise her shield to defend.

“Clang!” A loud noise echoed.

Wang Licui retreated several steps, four claw marks appearing on her heavy shield, each a few inches deep, almost tearing through the shield.

Quite a substantial force.

Wang Shouzhe caught every detail, his mind spinning rapidly as he estimated the strength of the Spirit Platform Realm Demon Puppet.

“Huh? Its strength doesn’t seem that strong.” Wang Licui also seemed somewhat surprised. She originally thought that she would have been smacked flying with one hit, sparking a sudden rush of energy and lifting her sledgehammer to charge towards the Demon Puppet.

“Clang, clang, clang.”

Within not even ten moves, she was sent flying by the Demon Puppet. Even the heavy armor on her body was marked with claw scratches, and blood started to seep out.

“Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle, I can’t hold on any longer,” Wang Licui cried out, “This big guy is too strong.”

“Hang in there, you can do it,” Wang Shouzhe said, “If you surrender without my consent, I will confiscate all your spirit food and then arrange for Shu Yong and Shu Lian to eat it in front of you every day.”

“For one year.”

That’s brutal!

Wang Licui couldn’t even imagine being in that situation—it would be like the end of the world. She couldn’t even bear it for even one day, let alone a year.

“If you can manage to injure it, I’ll take you to County Town. You can pick anything you want to eat,” Wang Shouzhe said, swinging a stick before offering a carrot.

County Town?

Wang Licui perked up. She’d heard that the place was very prosperous and they had all kinds of delicious food. She had never been there before.

She knew Fourth Uncle would never lie to her.

Then Wang Licui was filled with visions of tasty foods from County Town and charged lively towards the Demon Puppet with her hammer.

I, Miss Licui, will fight you to the end!

Her power seemed to triple.

“Clang, clang.” She warily fought with the demon puppet head-on.

Wang Shouzhe constantly estimated the strength of the demon puppet. The longer the fight went on, the clearer his concept became.

It wasn’t particularly strong.

It was roughly comparable to the old Ancestor Xiaohan just after his promotion to the Spirit Platform Realm and stabilizing for a while.

Even so, it was not something a regular Qi Refinement Realm practitioner could handle. Ordinary Qi Refinement Realm peak practitioners really were no match for the Spirit Platform Realm.

However, since the Artifact Spirit brought out the Spirit Platform Realm Demon Puppet, it indicated that the Spirit Platform Realm Demon was not invincible, and there was certainly someone in the Qi Refinement Realm who could stand against it.

Even if everyone is defeated this time, experience can be accumulated for those who come afterward.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.”

The demon puppet whirled its claws around as if it was an executioner, slowly tearing and shredding Wang Licui’s body armor to pieces. More and more wounds opened up on Wang Licui’s body, presenting a miserable sight.

The puppet seemed to be having fun with its prey.

Having estimated enough, Wang Shouzhe was about to call for a stop, fearing Licui’s life would be in danger, when suddenly…

Wang Licui became enraged: “Damn demon, can’t you just let me hit you once?”

Fourth Uncle said that she had to wound it before she could go to County Town for delicious food.

“Miss Licui is going to lose her temper.”

“She’s losing it now.”

Uh? Wang Shouzhe stopped his action, wondering, could it be that Licui also had hidden strength?

However, Wang Licui’s rage didn’t seem to come into play as she was hit hard by the demon puppet and sent flying. All her heavy armor dispersed, revealing her bloodied body.

“Damn. The two girls, Wang Luo Jing and Wang Luoqiu, become very tough when they lose their temper,” Wang Licui was indignant, “I, Licui, am the boss here. You stupid demon dare to underestimate me.”

As she spoke, the demon puppet was already making another move to attack her.
