Chapter 735: Chapter 96: Youqing! Finally waited for you_3

This scene is like a beautiful painting.

Suddenly.

A small two-zhang-long coastal fishing boat swiftly sliced through the water, breaking the tranquility and startling a group of small fish.

The small fish scattered quickly in a panic.

The poor little stinging claw crab stood frozen in place with its eyes raised, likely to go hungry.

On the small fishing boat, standing one in front and one behind, were two "fishermen".

The older one wore a straw raincoat, hunched over the oar, while the younger one, donned in a bamboo hat and holding a fishing net, seemed ready to catch fish at any moment.

As the development of the Qingluo Guard advanced, many local fishermen and their families from the surrounding coastal areas had migrated to the Qingluo Guard Islands. They fished in the nearby sea and could sell their catch to soldiers, labor teams, or the Wang Family development team.

In fact, many coastal residents directly joined the labor teams.

This small fishing boat mingled among many others, not conspicuous at all.

At the bow of the boat, the young "fisherman" looked at the "Wang Family inspection team" over a hundred zhang in the distance. A sharp look crossed their eyes as they spoke in a clear and captivating voice: "That damned guy has been holed up at home for so long, and he finally decided to venture out of his old nest."

"Luckily, that girl Luo Yuqing, even though she loves to tattletale, has some skills and can keep an eye on you for me."

Her voice, clear and captivating, was none other than the disguised Cao Youqing.

On her face was an unknown substance, making her resemble the surrounding fishermen. If she hadn’t spoken, it would be impossible to tell she was different.

She then turned to the fisherman at the stern and said, "The time has come, please, Ancestor, take action and kill him."

At her words, the old fisherman immediately stood up straight.

"Girl, hide yourself first. Whether it succeeds or not, do not intervene, so as not to affect your future."

As his words fell, his body became straight and tall, and an aura of an unparalleled master surged forth.

...

Meanwhile.

Wang Shouzhe and his entourage were still inspecting around the site for the deepwater port, occasionally offering some ideas. These ideas came from the strange and obscure knowledge Wang Shouzhe had in his previous life.

On Earth, ninety-nine percent of this obscure knowledge would have no use for him. But in this world, as his status rose and he became involved in various aspects, this obscure knowledge unexpectedly came in handy.

"Patriarch Shouzhe is indeed well-versed and knowledgeable, even knowing these things," Wei Wenxun remarked while instructing a clerk to note down Wang Shouzhe’s words, "Patriarch Shouzhe, is there anything you don’t know other than childbirth?"

Uh...

A drop of cold sweat appeared on Wang Shouzhe’s forehead. Is that even comparable?

As they chatted.

Suddenly.

A sudden change occurred!

"Buzz~~"

A majestic aura erupted like a volcanic eruption.

In an instant, the sky changed colors.

The calm sea surface suddenly churned up with ten thousand waves, the sky darkened instantly, water droplets sprayed in the air, and fierce winds raged, as if it suddenly turned into a stormy season at the juncture of spring and summer.

Amidst the raging waves, a figure wearing a bamboo hat and straw raincoat walked on the waves, suddenly appearing between the sea and the sky.

This figure was naturally Ancestor Kunhao.

His figure appeared so frail and small, seemingly insignificant compared to the raging winds and towering waves behind him.

Yet, the aura emanating from his body was vast and grand, as if he had melded with the heavens and earth.

Cultivators in the Purple Mansion Realm have powerful divine sense and a certain depth of understanding of the Heaven and Earth Laws. When they take action, they can invoke the power of the heavens and earth, their strength incomparable to cultivators in the Celestial Human Realm.

At this moment, Ancestor Kunhao had come to kill Wang Shouzhe, showing no mercy in his actions.

His slightly murky eyes narrowed, focused on Wang Shouzhe, as his palm slowly raised, resplendent blue radiance blossoming from its center.

In an instant, an invisible power of laws spread out.

The primordial water spiritual qi between heaven and earth, in this moment, seemed to be controlled in his palm, gathering terrifying might as it pressed towards Wang Shouzhe.

Vastly immense.

The power was so strong, like the Celestial River pouring down, or as if time and space were collapsing, causing one’s mind to shatter.

People were horrified, and everyone evaded.

"It’s a Purple Mansion Realm cultivator! Patriarch Shouzhe, be careful."

Wei Wenxun’s face changed dramatically.

Almost instinctively, he lifted a leg to block in front of Wang Shouzhe.

But faced with the terrifying momentum approaching like a divine force, he only felt as insignificant as an ant trying to shake a tree, filled with an insurmountable sense of despair.

It’s over, it’s over~ I, Wei Wenxun, should never have acted so boldly, this time I’m afraid I’ll be implicated and killed~

Wei Wenxun’s heart sank, filled with regret and despair.

Just in his moment of despair.

A furry fox head suddenly poked out from Wang Shouzhe’s moving embrace, its flame-red fur dancing in the wind, looking extraordinarily smart and adorable.

Staring at the Purple Mansion Realm expert approaching on the waves, it leapt out without a word.

"Roar~!"

With a roar, its petite figure rapidly expanded, transforming in an instant into a gigantic crimson Seven-tailed Spirit Fox.

Its massive demon body stood like a thick wall, firmly shielding Wang Shouzhe and the others behind it.

At the same time, the golden light flashed in its fierce fox eyes, and a red flame pattern suddenly spread across its forehead.

This was the mark of the "Foxfire," the innate divine technique of the Fire Fox clan.

As a Seven-tailed Fire Fox, when it grew its seventh tail, it automatically mastered the use of the "Foxfire."

This was considered an innate advantage for a Ferocious Beast.

Compared to humans who, after advancing to the Purple Mansion Realm, still need to comprehend laws and arduously cultivate to master minor divine techniques, the Ferocious Beast, upon advancement, instinctively knows how to use its power.

Now at merely seven tails, the crimson pattern on its forehead occupied only a small area. When it advances to eight tails, the "Foxfire" will turn from a minor divine technique to a great divine technique, with the red flame pattern covering most of its forehead, making its presence even more imposing.

In all seriousness, since the Seven-tailed Fire Fox grew its seventh tail, this was its first time going all out.

But it showed no fear.

With a roar, its seven massive fox tails swept fiercely, scarlet foxfire suddenly erupted, transforming into a sky full of flames, surging towards the sky.

The Seven-tailed Fire Fox was a Tier Seven Ferocious Beast, equivalent in tier to a middle-stage Purple Mansion Realm human cultivator.

However, Ferocious Beasts are born of nature, inherently robust in physique, with bloodline power even more potent than humans. At the same tier, their combat power is slightly superior to humans.

At this moment, the Seven-tailed Fire Fox went all out, its overwhelming fiery momentum so strong, it seemed to want to incinerate a hole in the sky.

"Boom~~~"

The soaring flames collided with the countless primordial water spiritual qi in the sky, exploding instantly like fireworks.

In that moment, the entire sky seemed to be torn apart by the terrifying momentum, with the horrifying energy rolling madly like heaven and earth collapsing.

Simultaneously, the terrifying shockwaves also swept across, hurricanes raged, and the massive waves rising on the sea surface became even larger, causing all the boats to shake madly.

Nearby, lighter civilian boats were directly overturned by the massive waves.

Farther away, the laborers who were just working on the construction site were so frightened they trembled, scrambling to flee to safety.

Amidst the chaos, only the Seven-tailed Fire Fox and Wang Shouzhe and others protected by it remained unaffected.

"Old geezer, you dare bully my Brother Shouzhe?"

The Seven-tailed Fire Fox’s scarlet-golden pupils were filled with rage, its charming voice turning fierce.
