Shui Yang said with a sneer. “Shui Tao, go after that girl and capture her alive!”

Ye Liang wanted to block him, but Shui Yang and the other elders immediately surrounded him, and he immediately took out his weapon. “Although I can’t stop him, he won’t succeed in capturing my daughter.”

“Die!” Shui Yang shouted as he swung a blue sword made of water qi toward Ye Liang.

Ye Liang deflected it swiftly using his blue spear, which also made of Water Qi, but the elders attacked him. Suddenly, he turned his spear into two small spears and parried the elders’ attacks, but Shui Yang slashed his sword at his chest again.

However, before Shui Yang’s sword hit his body, a blue shield appeared before Ye Liang and blocked his attack.

“Heh.” Ye Liang snorted and made a circular motion; his two spears now turned into whips with blades and directly hit them, making their hands bleed.

‘Shit! Although he has long since left the Cultivator Realm, his fighting is still good!’ Shui Yang inwardly muttered and ordered the others. “Let’s keep attacking him! If we keep attacking him continuously, I’m sure he’ll run out of Qi soon.”

Those elders nodded at him, and they continued to attack Ye Liang. Even so, their attacks could never break through his defense, for his water qi manipulation was much faster than theirs.

However, they didn’t give up so quickly and continued attacking Ye Liang repeatedly. Even their attack speed increased, and their battle slowly shifted toward the sea.

Arriving at the sea, Ye Liang immediately muttered quietly. “Water Dragon Wave!” ｎｏｖ𝚕．𝚌ｏｍ

And high waves resembling a dragon emerged from the sea’s surface and attacked them, but they hastily made a barrier like a dome of water surrounding them.

*Splashes*

The water dragons swept them into the sea, but the next second, several other water dragons rushed towards Ye Liang, but his defense crushed them.

‘This is really bad; fighting all of them at once makes my Qi drain fast.’ Ye Liang muttered inwardly, but he was still on alert, anticipating their next attack, especially since Shui Yang and the others were still hiding in the water.

Suddenly, several other water dragons shot toward Ye Liang from different directions, and they shot water balls at him.

‘Shit! How can they use this technique?’ Ye Liang mustered up his defenses and kept trying to dodge their combination attacks.

However, since he was too busy dodging the attacks of the three water dragons, Ye Liang didn’t notice a silver net coming from right above him. The silver net quickly wrapped around his body, which made him unable to move. He tried to cut the net with his Qi, but his Qi disappeared as soon as it hit the net.

“Haha! It’s useless! It’s a special net developed by our ancestors to capture a traitor like you, and it can absorb your water Qi.” Shui Yang spoke with a triumphant smile as they emerged from the water, then he pointed his blue sword qi at Ye Liang’s chest. “Hehe, I will kill you first, and your twin daughters will catch up with you later.”

Ye Liang looked at Shui Yang angrily, but unfortunately, he was already helpless, as his Qi was also almost completely drained after fighting them for so long.

*Splurt*

Shui Yang’s blue sword qi pierced Ye Liang’s chest in the next second. As he pushed his sword deeper, he took his storage ring.

Soon, Ye Liang fell into the ocean after Shui Yang pulled his sword from his chest; he kept his eyes on those people as he muttered his last words. ‘Sigh, I’m sorry, Jing’er and Yue’er. I hope Yun’er and the others can protect you two well.’

“Finally, we managed to kill that traitor.” Shui Yang said with a satisfied smile, then he checked on Ye Liang’s storage ring, but he was instantly cursed after seeing its contents. “Damn it! He must have given the artifact to his daughters!”

“Patriarch, we have to catch up with Shui Tao; he has gone too long just to chase after an ordinary girl.” One of the elders said Shui Yang nodded to them, and they flew towards his location.

“Damn it! That girl is so agile, even though she’s just an ordinary woman. But this is weird; why can’t I feel her presence?” Shui Tao continued to curse as he continued to look for Hua Yue.

In fact, Hua Yue was hiding not far from him, but he still couldn’t find her.

‘Ugh! This sewer really stinks! Fortunately, this ring Father gave me is truly extraordinary; if it weren’t for it, I would have been caught by that person.’ Hua Yue muttered as she caught her heavy breathing, and her legs were tired from running and hiding from Shui Tao.

After she had rested for a while, Hua Yue started walking hunched over down the sewer. ‘I have to go to Aunt Mingxia’s house immediately.’

“What happened to you, Jing’er?” Ling Ling asked worriedly.

Ye Jing, who was practicing with her, suddenly fell to the floor and cried loudly, and she clutched something in her hand.

Ye Jing looked up with teary eyes, opened her palms, and showed Ling Ling the blue crystal, which had now been split in two. “My father… My father is dead, Big Sis. This is my father’s crystal, and he once told me; if it shatters, it means he is dead.”

“That is a crystal belonging to the Shui Clan, which means Shui Liang is dead, Miss Ling.” Shui Lan said with a heavy sigh. “It seems that the Shui Clan members in the outside world managed to find him, as he can’t return here.”

Ling Ling immediately hugged her, precisely knowing how Ye Jing felt now, for she had also lost her father before, but she didn’t know how to comfort her. She inwardly sighed and contacted Ling Yun through the Harem Connection.

Ling Xi, who was on Ling Yun’s lap, was shocked after hearing the news from Ling Ling. “What will you do now?”

Ling Yun did not answer her question, lifted Ling Xi from his lap and sat her on the side. He then put on his clothes, stood before the window, and looked into the distance.

However, Ling Yun’s expression was clearly filled with rage, his eyes turned blood-red, and a dark aura enveloped his body.

Ling Xi frowned as she saw countless black scales appear on Ling Yun’s body; soon, he had already turned into a half-dragon, and his killing intent was leaking from his body, causing everyone in the Feng Clan to have a hard time breathing the pressure of his aura.

“Let’s go and finish off those bastards.” Ling Yun said in a hoarse voice as he flew out, but Ling Xi and the people in the Feng Clan were shocked instantly, for he turned into a gigantic black dragon.

Ling Xi quickly flew to Ling Yun, sat on his back, and muttered to herself. ‘Sigh, this is really bad! His anger had gotten to him; I can’t tell what will happen next.’

“Ugh! What happened to Yun’er?” Su Fei asked after she was able to breathe smoothly again.

Feng Xing shook her head. “I don’t know, but Yun’er seems to be in a rage.”

“Hey, isn’t Ling Yun just a human with the bloodline of a dragon? So how did he turn into a real dragon?” Feng Qiong confusedly asked.

As for Feng Yao, she kept staring at the gigantic black dragon in awe. ‘Ling Yun is really amazing!’

“I can’t explain it to you, Sister Qiong.” Su Fei replied with a shake of her head. “How about we go after them?”

“No.” Feng Xing rejects Su Fei’s idea. “I think he’s headed towards the Clear Water Sect, and he’ll definitely run amok there, so we shouldn’t follow him.”

Feng Qiong agreed with her. “Xing’er is right; we should just wait here. I’m afraid that if Ling Yun cannot control his anger and injure us, and he will regret it later.”

Su Fei could only sigh and nod in agreement, but she clenched her fists tightly. ‘I can’t go on like this; I must train harder to help Yun’er in the future.’

“There she is! Hurry up and capture her!” Shui Yang ordered Shui Tao when he saw Hua Yue rushing towards a house.

“Oh no!” Hua Yue continued running with all her might toward the house, screaming as loud as she could. “Help! Help Me!”

“You won’t be able to run from me anymore, Little Girl!” Shui Tao flew quickly toward her and reached out his hand toward Hua Yue.

*Splurt*

“Argh! My hand!” Shui Tao screamed in pain, holding his hand, which was suddenly cut off for no reason.

Seeing that, Hua Yue breathed a bit of relief and continued running into the house. However, as she arrived at the main building, she immediately passed out, and someone supported her directly.

Shui Yang and those elders frowned at that, they wanted to fly to help Shui Tao, but their bodies suddenly couldn’t move and seemed bound by transparent threads.

The next second, they saw Shui Tao’s body was already dismembered, and his body was chopped into small pieces.

“Shui Clan, huh? You guys dare to run rampant in this house?”

Their eyes widened at the sight of two women who suddenly appeared before them, their bodies trembling violently and cold sweat dripping from their foreheads.
