Chapter 335: Chapter 65: I, Ruolan, greet you on behalf of my husband_2

“Kangping!”

Witnessing this scene, Huangfu Jinyuan was filled with rage. He roared and tried to rush to Kangping’s aid, heedless of the danger.

But before he could act, he was restrained by the Xu Family’s Old Ancestor Beichen.

Furious and desperate, he roared, “Xu Beichen, get out of my way!”

“Huangfu Jinyuan,” Beichen commanded, utilizing the power of the Town Dragon Monument to hold him in place. “Your alliance with the Yinsha Sect, and your theft of other clan’s properties, are atrocities. If you think you can escape unscathed today, you are utterly delusional!”

“Xu Beichen! I’ll fight you to the death!” Huangfu Jinyuan bellowed in rage, spitting a mouthful of blood onto the Dragon and Tiger Demon Subduing Ruler. Empowered by his blood, the ruler’s shadow expanded, a faint echo of a dragon’s roar and a tiger’s howl ringing out.

The power of the Dragon and Tiger Demon Subduing Ruler surged dramatically!

Old Ancestor Beichen’s expression hardened. The power of the Town Dragon Monument surged as well, locking down Huangfu Jinyuan and offering him no chance to move.

Meanwhile, in the Jinsha River, Huangfu Kangping had managed to leap out of the water first. His black armor was soaked and he appeared disheveled, but he had managed to escape. The Red Blood Pigeon, a bird species, was struggling desperately in the water but was unable to escape on its own.

“Old buddy!” Kangping was frantic. He surged forward through the water, reaching out to grab the Red Blood Pigeon, trying to lift it out of the water.

But then-

Within the rushing water, a large shadow more than a meter in diameter had silently snuck up to them.

The moment Huangfu Kangping reached out, the shadow lunged like a swift snake, snapping around the neck of the Red Blood Pigeon.

Simultaneously, it rapidly dove downward. In the blink of an eye, it dragged the Red Blood Pigeon down into the depths of the river.

The shadow was none other than the Spirit Tortoise, which had been coveting the Red Blood Pigeon for a long time.

A Level Three Spirit Bird was a delicacy; the ever-hungry tortoise wouldn’t let such a chance slip away.

“Old buddy!!!” Huangfu Kangping was heartbroken.

The Red Blood Pigeon had been by his side for a hundred years. Their relationship was just like that of close family members.

Without thinking, he tried to dive into the water to rescue the Red Blood Pigeon.

But suddenly, a cold feminine voice with a hint of laziness rang in his ear.

“Huangfu Kangping, I advise you to refrain from acting on impulse.”

Suspended in the air above the water, Huangfu Kangping turned around and saw an extraordinary woman standing on the water’s surface at a short distance. A water-blue spiritual pearl circled slowly around her.

Under the moonlight, she exhaled a clear, spiritual aura, moving elegantly. Her eyebrows and eyes were relaxed and carefree, like a noblewoman out for a jaunt in the mountains.

“Who are you?!”

Huangfu Kangping’s pupils contracted. He was filled with fear, recognizing the woman. She was the one who had used a powerful attack to knock him and the Red Blood Pigeon out of the sky.

“The arrogant members of the Ma Huangfu Family, relying on the support of Huangfu Clan of Changning, fail to gather sufficient intelligence on their opponents.” Liu Ruolan gave him a glance, not seeming to consider him as an important enemy. She said calmly, “I am Liu Ruolan, representing my husband Wang Shouzhe, sending our regards to the head of your family.”

Liu Ruolan.

Huangfu Kangping had vaguely heard of this name. But he never expected such a formidable force would be hidden within an unremarkable Wang family’s wife!

Run, run, run!

All the hairs on Huangfu Kangping’s body stood on end as he turned to flee.

At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind: cross over the river and fight for survival. He had to survive not just for himself, but also to keep the last hope alive for the previous Ma Huangfu Family.

Liu Ruolan, standing on the water, simply watched him run away without attempting to stop him. Instead, she turned her attention towards the battlefield on Golden Sand Beach.

Just as Huangfu Kangping was stepping on the water attempting to cross the river, an elderly man appeared in his path, blocking his way.

Under the dim moonlight, the old man had a head full of white hair and a serene look in his eyes. Despite his simple stance, he projected an unshakeable presence, giving the impression of profound depths. His vitality was flourishing, indicating that he was in his prime years.

“Huangfu Kangping,” his voice rang out firmly. “You and I are of similar age, it is fitting for me to deal with you.”

“Liu Qingbai!” Huangfu Kangping’s footsteps halted. His face abruptly turned pale. “Even you have come! Have you considered the consequences if Old Ancestor Hua Ye retaliates for what you’re doing?!”

Liu Qingbai just smiled, “Old brother Kangping, you have a sense of humor. The Ma Huangfu Family’s alliance with the Yinsha Sect is a capital offense. Even if I kill you, your Old Ancestor Hua Ye, cannot find fault with me.”

“Besides, your two Huangfu Families have left no room for others to live. Do we have any choice other than a fight to the death?”

Liu Qingbai, also known as Old Ancestor Qingbai, was a prominent figure in the Liu Family of Shanyin, second in power only to Liu Xuanfu. He was reputable throughout Changning.

Although not very old, just above a hundred and twenty years, he had reached the Peak Mid Stage of the Spiritual Platform Realm and had a promising future of ascending to the level of a Celestial being.

Moreover, he was blood-related to the Ping’an Wang Family. He was the son of Zhuwei, who herself was the beloved daughter of Old Ancestor Zhou Xuan of the Wang Family, making Qingbai the direct grandson of Zhou Xuan and the younger brother of Old Ancestor Xuanfu, Liu Xuanfu!
