Book 2: Chapter 12: Madam... she got angry
However, at this moment, whether it was the Liu's Clan or the Wang's Clan, no one was genuinely worried for Liu Ruolan.
With Liu Ruolan's strength, dealing with this small demon puppet was as easy as blowing off dust.
As expected.
Facing the raging momentum of the demon puppet.
Liu Ruolan began to use the sword technique that accompanied the Xuan Water True Jue - the Xuan Water Sword Technique.
This sword technique seemed soft and light, with the sword light dancing and dragging a series of water-blue glows, which was quite beautiful. But in reality, it was extremely profound and mysterious, with a deadly killing intent hidden within its seeming softness.
Often, the killing move would burst out unexpectedly, resulting in a fatal blow.
Sure enough, after a dozen or so moves.
The Xuan Water Sword Technique suddenly erupted, pulling out a stream of water-blue light. Within the gorgeous sword light, the head of the demon puppet flew off.
The demon puppet seemed to have no reaction even at the point of death, wondering why its head had suddenly moved?"Madam, what a great sword technique." Wang Shouzhe cheered loudly from the audience.
The rest of the brothers, sisters, and nieces also followed suit, praising her. Everyone was talking, as if Liu Ruolan had become a peerless sword god.
It seemed that these children were very clear about who was at the top of the food chain in their family.
Only the Ancestor, with her brows furrowed, was sighing in her heart.
With the talent of her great-great-niece, who was such a peerless genius, dealing with this small demon puppet should have taken no more than three moves. But she had dragged it out for more than a dozen moves.
It was indeed that brat who had spoiled her, she didn't have the slightest bit of the domineering aura of a peerless genius.
The disgruntled Ancestor glared at Wang Shouzhe again.
However, Wang Shouzhe didn't pay any attention to her at all, he walked straight up to the trial stage and started to care for his wife: "Ruolan, you've worked too hard, are you tired? Have a sip of ice crystal water and take a rest."
Then Wang Shouzhe very attentively helped her massage her shoulders and arms. It seemed as if Liu Ruolan was really very tired.
"It's not hard, it's rare that I can do something for my husband." Liu Ruolan smiled sweetly, seeming to enjoy it.
This rest lasted for a full incense stick's time. Then Liu Ruolan began the second battle.
This battle was naturally risk-free.
The only problem was that it took her two incense sticks' time to slowly grind down the two demon spirits.
Just as Wang Shouzhe had instructed before the match.
Liu Ruolan always followed her husband's instructions, preferring to fight slowly, and absolutely refusing to get hurt. Otherwise, wouldn't her husband be heartbroken?
What greeted her was naturally another round of fierce flattery. What a mighty fourth sister-in-law, what a powerful fourth aunt.
Wang Shouzhe naturally wouldn't miss this great opportunity to show his loyalty.
He ran up again in a very flattering manner, wiping her non-existent sweat, fanning her, and showing great concern.
"Dear, can we give this reward, the 'Primary Bloodline Improvement Liquid', to An'an?" Liu Ruolan suggested, "According to my estimation, that child's aptitude is rather poor, at most a bit better than my elder brother, barely reaching the middle-grade Ding level."
The couple were showing their affection as if no one else was around.
But Liu Yuanhui was sweating profusely.
My dear sister, how can you talk about your elder brother like that?
I, Liu Yuanhui, am at least a lower-grade Jia level aptitude, which is considered pretty good among the disciples of the noble families.
But he couldn't refute it, compared to his sister who was a natural Dao seedling, his little bit of aptitude was nothing.
Regarding Liu Ruolan's suggestion, Wang Shouzhe shook his head and said: "An'an is still young, he will have his own opportunities in the future. Besides, now that the Wang's Clan is gradually becoming stronger, he will definitely not lack basic resources. If he wants to go further, he can strive and fight for it himself."
"Madam, you have never taken any aptitude improvement medicine before. This bottle of bloodline improvement liquid, although it may not necessarily allow you to reach a higher level, it can lay a foundation for you to go further. Moreover, only when we become stronger can we provide a better harbor for our children."
This primary bloodline improvement liquid should still have some effect on Ruolan.
"Husband, you make a lot of sense, I'll listen to you." Liu Ruolan said gently.
Her husband doted on her very much, but once he made a serious request, it was usually reasonable, and she would listen.
Of course, those unreasonable requests, well... needed to be carefully considered...
Then Liu Ruolan began the third round.
The difficulty of this third round was naturally incomparable to the previous ones. In a one-against-three situation, even Liu Ruolan was struggling.
Unless she was willing to exchange injuries for injuries and fight desperately, she could possibly end the battle in a short time. But Liu Ruolan always followed her husband's instructions, insisting on a conservative approach, preferring to grind slowly.
As a result, this round was incredibly long.
Fortunately, the Xuan Water True Jue was an advanced technique of the Yuan Water Jue.
This technique was best at dragging out the rhythm and playing the grinding game. The further it went, the more powerless the enemy became.
Therefore, even though the fight was incredibly slow, Liu Ruolan gradually took control of the situation.
Half an hour later, the first demon puppet fell.
Only then did she gain an absolute advantage and quickly eliminated them one by one. The spectators were almost falling asleep, the battle was devoid of any excitement.
"Madam is mighty, Madam is domineering."
Only Wang Shouzhe continued to cheer, rushing forward to heap praises upon her.
At this time, the Spirit Artifact said: "Congratulations on passing the third trial, elite militiaman Liu Ruolan. You will be rewarded with a standard weapon and granted the title of warrior. Since it is detected that you are using a long sword type weapon, do you choose a long sword type standard weapon?"
Just as Liu Ruolan looked at Wang Shouzhe, Wang Shouzhe knew her intention and stopped her: "Madam, choose the spirit weapon you use. We still have the Zhou Xuan Sword at home."
The Zhou Xuan Sword was a medium-grade spirit weapon passed down by the ancestors and a symbol of the family, naturally, it should be used by him.Moreover, swords are the most common type of weapon, and many people in this world use them. They also have the highest value retention as a legacy.
Liu Ruolan obediently nodded and said, "Spirit Artifact, I choose a long sword."
Suddenly, after a wave of spatial fluctuation.
A long sword spirit artifact appeared in front of Liu Ruolan.
It was semi-transparent, as if it existed between the tangible and intangible. Its body was radiant and colorful, like shimmering autumn water, emitting a strong and lively aura of elemental water.
It looked like a long sword forged from spiritual water.
This was naturally another top-grade spirit artifact!
Upon seeing such a beautiful sword, Liu Ruolan couldn't take her eyes off it.
She tentatively touched the hilt, which was as smooth as transparent crystal. A cool, watery sensation immediately swept over her. Vaguely, she could feel a sense of joy from this top-grade spirit artifact.
No wonder, Liu Ruolan's bloodline was almost a water spirit body, and her affinity for elemental water was far beyond ordinary people. And this top-grade spirit artifact was purely of water attribute.
Although it was far from being able to choose its master, it already had some instinctive consciousness. Meeting such a master naturally made it happy.
When Liu Ruolan gripped the hilt, it turned into a soft water-like form, winding around her arm. It was as if she was wearing a semi-transparent wrist guard on her fair wrist.
Liu Ruolan, like a child with a new toy, kept experimenting with it. With a thought, it turned back into a spirit sword. With another thought, it turned into a semi-transparent wrist guard.
The beautiful radiance of the wrist guard also became plain under her control, no longer attracting attention.
Good! It has the ability to hide its spiritual light, this is a good point. Her husband once said that it's always good to have a few hidden cards.
"My lady is really amazing, she can control the spirit artifact even before reaching the Spirit Platform realm." Wang Shouzhe praised without hesitation.
Liu Ruolan laughed lightly, "I can barely control it. The true power of the spirit artifact can't be fully utilized until I reach the Spirit Platform realm."
"Even so, my lady is much stronger than the average Qi Refining realm." Wang Shouzhe never hesitated to praise his wife, always seizing the opportunity to flatter her.
She laughed happily. Obviously, she was very satisfied with this top-grade spirit artifact, "My husband, you are eloquent, can you help me name my spirit sword?"
"It's like a pool of autumn water, shimmering and vast." Wang Shouzhe pondered, "Let's call it, Yibo."
Yibo?
Liu Ruolan broke out in a cold sweat. If the spirit of this spirit artifact grows up in the future, will it go crazy?
"Just kidding, let's call it Qiu Shui (Autumn Water)." Wang Shouzhe laughed.
"Autumn water is shimmering and vast." Liu Ruolan's smile became even sweeter, "Thank you, my husband."
Chen Fangjie in the distance was speechless. His brother-in-law, Shouzhe, was indeed a step ahead of him. His flattery was extraordinary and brilliant.
It seemed that he, Chen Fangjie, still needed to learn and slowly understand the true meaning.
The other ancestors of the Spirit Platform realm were also envious. The Wang's Clan really gained a lot this time.
But everyone was relatives, and they were allies united by common interests. The stronger the Wang's Clan, the more benefits everyone would get.
"My lady has passed three levels, she must be tired. Why not take a good rest? Next, it's my turn to perform." Wang Shouzhe said.
"No, I want to try the fourth level." Liu Ruolan insisted, but then she said softly, "Don't worry, my husband. I just want to feel the atmosphere. If I really can't beat it, I will surrender."
Wang Shouzhe hesitated for a moment, seeing her serious, he said, "Then, my lady, be careful."
After another hour of rest.
Liu Ruolan was full of energy and looked spirited. Only then did Wang Shouzhe let her go.
"Spirit Artifact, I want to challenge the fourth level."
"As you wish, warrior Liu Ruolan."
As soon as the voice fell, the previous Spirit Platform realm demon puppet appeared again. The reason why it was judged to be the same one was that although the scars on its body had healed, there was obviously a dent caused by Wang Lici's heavy hammer.
The demon puppet growled menacingly.
Like a wild bull, it charged towards Liu Ruolan, even causing the ground to crack under its feet.
Obviously, it had learned its lesson this time and decided to attack strongly from the start, no longer toying with its prey.
Liu Ruolan waved her hand, and her slender hand held the Qiu Shui Sword.
Although under normal circumstances, a spirit artifact could only be driven at the Spirit Platform realm.
But obviously, Liu Ruolan was already able to exert part of its effect, which was much stronger than an ordinary long sword.
With a casual swing of her sword, a pure force of elemental water burst out from the Qiu Shui Sword, forming a barrier of elemental water.
"Boom!"
The elemental water barrier only slightly blocked the demon puppet before it was shattered. It rushed forward, its sharp claws sweeping towards Liu Ruolan.
She hurriedly blocked, her delicate body constantly drifting backwards, her posture no longer composed.
In just over ten breaths, Liu Ruolan was already showing signs of defeat.
The Spirit Platform realm, after all, was the Spirit Platform realm. There was an insurmountable gap between it and the Qi Refining realm. Even with the help of the Qiu Shui Sword, she was not its opponent.
Wang Shouzhe was trembling with fear as he watched from below, and hurriedly shouted, "My lady, if you really can't do it, surrender."
Ancestor Xuanfu also sighed lightly. If Ruolan had been diligently cultivating all along, she wouldn't be so embarrassed even if she couldn't necessarily defeat it.
In the end, that brat had spoiled her. The world was probably going to lose a peerless genius.
Suddenly, Liu Ruolei's eyes flashed as if she had an idea, and she shouted, "Sister, you must become stronger. Think about it, if something happens to you, your husband can marry a new wife."
"Huh!?" Wang Shouzhe broke out in a cold sweat. What was Ruolei talking about? How could she curse her sister like this and slander her brother-in-law?
But as soon as these words came out...On the trial stage, Liu Ruolan's delicate body trembled, an invisible killing intent that Wang Shouzhe was familiar with seemed to be brewing.
This made Wang Shouzhe secretly curse his luck, it was too late to stop it.
Liu Ruolei continued to shout, "Sister, think about it. The bride your brother-in-law will marry will share his bed every day. She will eat your food, drink your water, use your things. If she's in a bad mood, she might even hit your child. Can you bear all this?"
"Wang Shouzhe." A cold, feminine voice rang out from the trial ground, "You dare!"
A tangible killing intent emanated from her, as if an invisible suffocating force was spreading in all directions.
"Big trouble." Wang Shouzhe's scalp tingled, here it comes again, this familiar feeling.
Ruolei, how could you be so cruel?
Brother-in-law, where did I wrong you?
Meanwhile.
The spirit stage demon puppet seemed to sense a threat. It roared wildly.
Swinging its giant claws, it intended to tear Liu Ruolan to pieces.
At this moment, Liu Ruolan had completely changed. Her originally gentle and clear eyes had turned ice blue, leaving only endless coldness.
Like a high and mighty king, looking down on the humble masses.
Facing the threat of the demon puppet, she merely glanced at it, and the demon puppet seemed to be enveloped by an endless chill, even its movements slowed down.
"Shut up."
She swung her sword casually, and the water-blue sword light burst forth, transforming into endless killing intent towards the demon puppet.
"Swish!"
The sword light flashed.
The demon puppet, which had hastily dodged, had a ferocious wound on its chest. Demon blood flowed out, and its heavy, ink-steel-like body was as fragile as paper under the sword light.
"Huh? It actually dodged? Humph, it's just a tiny ant."
Liu Ruolan said coldly, immediately swinging her autumn water-like sword, and counterattacked the spirit stage demon puppet.
The demon puppet roared in anger, but still couldn't resist, and was forced to retreat.
The situation had suddenly reversed.
Seeing his wife showing her power.
Wang Shouzhe was more frightened than happy. He took a deep breath and glared at Liu Ruolei from a distance.
Ruolei, your brother-in-law has been good to you.
Are you pushing your brother-in-law into the fire? Don't you know your sister...
The memory of that night was unforgettable for Wang Shouzhe. If it weren't for the Ancestor's rescue, his wife would probably have been a widow.
Because of this, he had been cautious all these eight years.
Afraid that another Liu Ruolan would appear.
The Ancestors and others were all in doubt, what exactly had happened? How could the gentle and obedient wife of the Wang's Clan suddenly become so fierce?
The younger generation of the Wang's Clan all changed their faces, equally uneasy, and somewhat fearful.
That night, it was not only Ancestor Long Yan who was alarmed!
The absolute authority of the fourth aunt and fourth sister-in-law among their brothers, sisters, and nieces was not obtained by their status.
Even Ancestor Long Yan had a complex look in her eyes. Eight years ago, she could barely persuade her with her strong strength.
But now... Ruolan is not what she used to be.
Shouzhe, Shouzhe, this time you might have to fend for yourself.
Only Ancestor Xuanfu, after a moment of surprise, exclaimed with joy, "Good, good, this is the unparalleled genius of our Liu family, my innate spiritual seed has not been wasted!"
Wang Shouzhe's eyelids twitched, is this something to be happy about?
Ancestor Xuanfu, when my wife loses her temper, can you stand up to her?
