Protect Our Clan Leader

“Wan’er, I think Sister Lingzhu just purely wants to help Sister Baiyu, don’t think too badly of her.” Wang Licui said with a simple smile, “Actually, this is pretty good too. In the future, the Baiyu Clan won’t have to worry about being bullied anymore.”

“Lici, my sister…” Baiyu Chaolu showed a troubled expression, “I…”

“Sister Baiyu, I understand.” Wang Licui’s smile did not fade; instead, she comforted her, “Actually, the reason I invited you to help my Fourth Uncle before was also to solve some problems for you. Now that there’s a better solution, it saves my Fourth Uncle some trouble. I wouldn’t blame you for this.”

“Thank you, Lici.” Baiyu Chaolu reached out to hug Wang Licui and softly said, “You are the kindest girl of the Human race I have ever met. Regarding this matter, I will go back and discuss it with my people first~~”

“Go on, go on.” Wang Licui waved her goodbye and said seriously, “Sister Baiyu, don’t let me influence your decision. The Baiyu Clan has waited long for such an opportunity.”

“Mm.”

Baiyu Chaolu nodded and left.

After she left, Lan Wanyi was furious: “I think that Yin Lingzhu is just trying to suppress you, fearing that if you take in the Baiyu Clan, your influence will grow and affect her Quasi-Tao Child status. Sister Lici, you really should push for it a bit. If you strive for it, I believe Sister Baiyu, being so kind, would definitely agree.”

“Wan’er, you don’t understand.” Wang Licui sighed, “The situation of the Baiyu Clan reminds me of our family’s situation when we were young. Back then, everyone had a tough time, and even a Little Pei Yuan Dan had to be passed around, so I truly feel for Sister Baiyu.”

“I don’t want to compete with Yin Lingzhu for the Tao Child position. Let her suppress me if she wants; this at least gives Sister Baiyu a chance to escape her fate. If I were to urge Sister Baiyu, she would definitely feel troubled, so why trouble her?”

“Wuwu~~ My kind sister Lici.” Lan Wanyi hugged Wang Licui, moved, “Let Wan’er have a snuggle.”

“Get lost!”

“Sister Lici, you’ve changed.”

“…”

******

Five days later.

A freight cloud ship heading to the Primordial Taoist Palace.

Wang Licui and Baiyu Chaolu parted reluctantly: “Sister Baiyu, after you arrive at the Primordial Taoist Palace, you can take a freight cloud ship to the Tianrui Saint Dynasty through the normal channels. These Spirit Stones should cover your tickets, and any surplus, please give to my Fourth Uncle.”

As she spoke, she shoved a bag of Spirit Stones into Baiyu Chaolu’s hands.

Indeed, Baiyu Chaolu ultimately rejected Yin Lingzhu’s invitation, but she did not place all her bets on Wang Licui either.

She decided to first lead five Transcendent Void Realm combat-capable clan members to meet with Licui’s Fourth Uncle. If things turned out as ideal as hoped, she would gradually relocate the Baiyu Clan.

She really didn’t want to stay in the Central Lands of the God Continent anymore.

Rather than relying on those lofty nobles, it was better to trust Licui, believing that she and her clan could carve out a world of their own. Besides, Yin Lingzhu might not be as well-intentioned as she seemed.

Having spent so much time in the Central Lands, while she might not fully understand those Prominent Families, she’d seen enough of them. Between Yin Lingzhu and Licui, she was more inclined to trust Sister Lici.

“Little sister Lici, I understand your instructions clearly.” Baiyu Chaolu nodded and said, “By the way, you are also a disciple of the Dao Palace; do you have any reliable friends there? Once we arrive and are unfamiliar with the place, could we rely on your friends for help?”

Upon hearing this, Wang Licui’s expression suddenly became quite splendid.

She cleared her throat and said softly, “Well… absolutely don’t… mention my Master or my name…”

“?” Baiyu Chaolu showed a slightly bewildered expression.

“Um… mainly because offending, no, I’m too outstanding, and there are many who are jealous. I’m afraid they’d trouble you just out of jealousy…” Wang Licui chuckled awkwardly a couple of times, “In any case, just don’t mention me or my Master’s name.”

“Uh…”

A bead of cold sweat slid off Baiyu Chaolu’s forehead.

She suddenly felt as if she had boarded some extraordinarily dangerous pirate ship, wondering if she could still disembark in time.

“Ah-hehe~” Wang Licui laughed awkwardly, then after some thought, she finally found someone to help, “Right, you can seek out Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme, but also don’t mention knowing me or my Master… just say you’re a friend of my Fourth Uncle Wang Shouzhe and ask him for a little assistance.”

Previously, Senior Brother Qingyuan mentioned in his letter that Cloud Peng Sacred Supreme had a good relationship with Fourth Uncle.

Baiyu Chaolu was speechless.

Sister Licui, what exactly did you and your Master do in the Dao Palace to arouse such widespread public indignation that even your names shouldn’t be mentioned?

However, seeing Wang Licui like this, she firmly remembered to definitely pretend not to know Licui and the Sea of Clouds Sacred Supreme!

After some rambling chatter.

Licui and the others reluctantly disembarked from the freight cloud ship, waving to the gradually departing cloud ship: “Sister Baiyu, when you reach the Tianrui Saint Dynasty, remember to write to me. Oh, and if there’s trouble, you can seek help from my Senior Brother Qingyuan.”

“Got it.”

Baiyu Chaolu waved goodbye to Licui, her heart filled with emotions.

This journey was destined to be one that changed the fate of the Baiyu Clan.

Her gaze was resolute, her belief within unyieldingly powerful.
