Protect Our Clan Leader

“Brother-in-law, why are you looking so pleased?” Liu Ruolei asked teasingly, a grin spreading across her face. “You feel relieved now, right? My sister is definitely going to beat that monster.”

Yeah, as if I’m relieved, you little devil.

She really thinks I’m not bothered about this situation she got me into.

Wang Shouzhe smirked to himself. It’s been eight years, did she think I’d be unprepared?

Just wait and see, little girl.

What’s done is done, whining about it won’t change anything. Might as well handle this well.

Though the situation is precarious, after Liu Ruolan unleashed her wrath. That demon probably doesn’t stand a chance.

Even though the demon puppet screeches and fights back with all its might, it couldn’t resist Liu Ruolan’s continuous, murderous sword aura.

Its scaled armor, radiating a darkly glowing ink-black sheen, gets cut open by each swing of her sword, spilling demonic blood. In a mere few moments, its body is full of sword marks, with its black flesh and blood a blurr.

Liu Ruolan appeared to be intent on dismembering this demon puppet alive.

All the Old Ancestors, along with their younger generations, were silenced by this scene. When she gets furious, the Lady of Wang family seems to become an entirely different person, no, she truly transforms into someone else.

It’s unfortunate that only trialists can surrender; the demon puppet has no such rights. It can only watch itself being disassembled alive!

A moment later, when the demon puppet collapsed, its body was not a single part left intact; it was entirely cut to pieces.

I guess it’s finally free.

However, there was still a cold glint in Liu Ruolan’s eyes, her anger seemingly undiminished.

“Congratulations to War Soldier Liu Ruolan for achieving victory. According to the rules, you may choose your reward from among the spirit seed, spirit egg, spirit soldier, and the spiritual treasure. Also, we grant you the stature of an elite soldier. Please report to the Divine Martial Army Headquarters to start the training and make outstanding contributions to the Divine Martial Dynasty.”

“Shut up, be quiet.”

Liu Ruolan said coldly. She didn’t have time for rewards now.

To her surprise, the Artifact Spirit obediently said, “Yes, Elite Soldier Lady Liu Ruolan, the Artifact Spirit is at your service any time.”

Quite evidently. Once the trialist acquires the status of an elite soldier, even the Artifact Spirit starts to show utmost respect to her, seemingly afraid to go against her will.

This shows that the status of an elite soldier in the Divine Martial Dynasty is quite prestigious.

However, now was not the time to discuss this.

Liu Ruolan turned around, her gaze focused on Wang Shouzhe from a distance. A sense of killing intent enveloped him as she coldly commanded, “Wang Shouzhe, come here.”

And then, all eyes reached Wang Shouzhe.

Even though the younger sisters and nieces felt sympathy for him, at this time none dared to intervene. The events of eight years ago left a deep impression, even though they were just children at the time.

Ever since then, no one in the Wang family had dared to provoke Liu Ruolan.

“Ahem!”

Wang Shouzhe had been preparing for this moment. Straightening up, he walked over with his chest puffed out, without showing any fear in his demeanor.

He knew that the more hesitated he appeared, the more likely he was to provoke Liu Ruolan’s emotions.

Then, as always, he greeted her with a smile, “Darling, you were awesome out there. You really gave it your all in this battle.”

Just like before, he patted her on the shoulder and the back, “Are you tired, baby? Take a rest. Here, have a bottle of Crystal Dew to quench your thirst.”

As if nothing happened at all, like they were back to normal.

But deep within, he was on edge, observing every move of his wife, ready to escape at any given indication of danger.

The moment he laid his hand on her shoulder, he could clearly feel her body stiffen, as she instinctively tried to dodge his touch.

The intangible killing intent suddenly intensified.

However, in the end, she didn’t dodge. Instead, she let Wang Shouzhe touch her, her body trembling slightly, as if struggling to control her emotions.

Suddenly!

Wang Shouzhe heaved a sigh of relief. Some of his speculations were seemingly confirmed.

After that incident, Wang Shouzhe subtly went to the Liu family and discussed the matter with his in-laws.

Liu Gaowang, his father-in-law, then gave an “appropriate” suggestion: “Shouzhe, Ruolan’s situation is quite unique. You need to be more patient with her and accommodate her in everything.”

Apart from this, no further constructive advice was given.

Also, they all believed that there might be two souls in Liu Ruolan.

Wang Shouzhe found this both funny and irritating. Beneath his wife’s demure exterior, there seemed to be a savage streak.

Being a transmigrator, Wang Shouzhe saw things differently. He suspected that his wife suffered from a dual personality disorder. The other personality seldom surfaced unless she was enraged.

Modern psychology has deeply studied and analyzed dual or multiple personality disorders, accounting for various cases.

His wife’s situation isn’t particularly rare.

No wonder all those uncles-in-law and aunts-in-law, and even his father-in-law and mother-in-law, never dared to offend Liu Ruolan; they always complied with her.

Afterward, Wang Shouzhe subtly tested his wife and discovered that she had memory gaps regarding that fateful night.
