In the Shui family hall, the atmosphere was solemn and dignified.

Many elders had gathered, waiting to welcome the patriarch Shui Wuyā's return.

Suddenly, a figure appeared at the door—Shui Wuyā, exuding an aura of both power and majesty.

"Welcome back, Patriarch!"

Shui Wuyā walked slowly into the hall, and the elders immediately rose in unison, respectfully kneeling.

At the same time, they could not hide their surprise.

It was clear that Shui Wuyā's presence was even more formidable than before.

Truly, the patriarch had returned even stronger. His prowess was extraordinary.

The elders silently marveled at the sight.

They wondered where the patriarch had been and what kind of opportunity he had encountered during his time away.

"During my absence, you all have worked hard. Please, rise."

Shui Wuyā nodded slightly, signaling everyone to stand up. There was a hint of fatigue on his face.

The troublesome little imp, Shui Bing'er, had been reluctant to say goodbye and had insisted on spending some more time with him.

As a result, they had lingered for a month before Shui Bing'er finally let him go.

Otherwise, he would have returned much earlier.

"Thank you, Patriarch!"

The elders expressed their gratitude as they stood.

At that moment, a figure descended from the void and landed in the Shui family hall.

It was Shui Yuānchén.

"Greetings, Clan Leader Shui!"

Shui Yuānchén arrived at the Shui family and bowed respectfully to Shui Wuyā.

The elders also greeted Shui Yuānchén.

The Shui family hall was bustling with activity, and the atmosphere was lively.

Shui Wuyā took his seat at the head of the hall.

The elders came forward to report on recent events.

"Patriarch, everything has been proceeding according to your plans. The family's internal affairs are in good order, and preparations in all areas are being carried out smoothly."

An elder reported respectfully.

"Good. Thank you for your hard work."

Shui Wuyā nodded slightly, indicating his satisfaction.

Then, Shui Yuānchén respectfully asked, "Patriarch, what are your plans moving forward?"

"Continue to follow my plan.

I need to keep training and quickly stabilize my ninth soul ring."

Shui Wuyā replied calmly.

"The ninth soul ring!?"

Hearing this, the elders were utterly astonished.

The ninth soul ring meant reaching level 90.

And Shui Wuyā was only nineteen years old!

Achieving such a level in such a short time was beyond their imagination!

"Patriarch, you've already reached level 90? Isn't that too fast?"

An elder asked in shock.

Everyone was puzzled; hadn't the patriarch just acquired his eighth soul ring recently?

"Yes, Patriarch, when did you reach level 90?"

Another elder inquired.

Shui Yuānchén was even more astonished.

He himself was only a Soul Saint at this age. When he broke through to Titled Douluo at 25, it had shocked the entire clan.

Indeed, in the Shui family history, there had been Titled Douluo under the age of twenty, but they were nurtured with the full support of the family and heavily reliant on medicinal substances.

However, Shui Wuyā's growth did not depend on drugs but on his own steady, step-by-step efforts, with an extremely solid foundation. This made his achievements even more unimaginable.

"Over the thousands of years, there have been many under twenty with Titled Douluo strength, especially with the aid of soul tools and martial soul fusion techniques. There have even been a few who became Titled Douluo through medicinal means. But to reach this level at nineteen purely through cultivation, the patriarch is the first!"

"Not just in our Shui family, but across the entire continent's history, no other family has such a precedent!"

"Patriarch, you have set a new record for the entire continent. You are truly a peerless genius and a miraculous Soul King!"

The crowd buzzed with excitement and admiration.

The Shui family patriarchs had always been geniuses who could fight above their level. Once they reached Titled Douluo, their combat power was at least equivalent to that of a level 96 Super Douluo.

But Shui Wuyā's combat power was undoubtedly even more terrifying!

As for Shui Wuyā's true strength, equivalent to which level of Super Douluo, they didn't even dare to speculate!

Gradually, the crowd calmed down, looking at Shui Wuyā with even more reverence.

In their hearts, Shui Wuyā was no longer just a powerful patriarch but a legend transcending his era.

Shui Wuyā then gazed at Shui Yuānchén and asked in a deep voice, "Shui Yuānchén, I plan to use Ditian as my ninth soul ring. What do you think?"

Shui Yuānchén nodded, a solemn look flashing in his eyes. He replied slowly, "Di tian's strength is considerable, reaching semi-divine levels.

Our Shui family has considered capturing him for a soul ring before, but we've waited until now for the right time.

Now that the patriarch has emerged, it seems Di tian's time has come.

I will go and capture him for you, Patriarch!"

As he spoke, Shui Yuānchén was ready to take action.

However, Shui Wuyā raised a hand to stop him, speaking in a grave tone, "We must not act rashly. The core of the Star Dou Forest is a perilous place. We must proceed with caution.

To be safe, we should all go together."

"You're right, Patriarch!"

Shui Yuānchén thought for a moment and agreed.

He understood the dangers of that place.

Legend had it that the core of the Star Dou Forest not only housed Di tian but also far more terrifying threats.

If they encountered those dangers, they would have to rely on the patriarch's Ice God techniques to contend with them.

"Alright, let's go."

With that, Shui Wuyā and Shui Yuānchén led a group of elders, grandly heading toward the Star Dou Forest.

In the palace of the Douling Empire, the Douling Emperor sat on his throne, seething with rage, gritting his teeth.

"Damn the Shui family, they've gone too far!"

He roared, furious beyond measure.

Previously, the Shui family had exposed some of his unsavory secrets, causing public outrage and widespread unrest.

Forced by circumstances, he had to personally visit the Shui family, apologize, and express his willingness to submit, pleading for forgiveness.

However, the Shui family had outright rejected his request, closing their doors to him.

For a sovereign like him to face such humiliation was infuriating!

Worse still, the Shui family had not stopped their actions; instead, they had become even more brazen, exposing more of his dark secrets and making him the object of national disdain.

Now, the people were looking to the Shui family for salvation, hoping they would rescue them from the tyranny of the Douling Emperor.

The situation was dire. If no action was taken soon, his empire might collapse amidst the turmoil.

With a resounding slap, the Douling Emperor, in a fit of rage, killed a handmaid holding a fan beside him, splattering blood everywhere, creating a gruesome scene.

The guards around him stepped back, showing fear on their faces.

"Damn these worthless commoners!"

"The only reason you're still alive is because of my mercy!"

He clenched his fists, seething with anger. "And you dare to rebel? This is intolerable!"

The Douling Emperor's face was full of murderous intent, his eyes gleaming with venom.

"Shui family, since you are so heartless, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

He had not wanted to take such measures, but now he saw no choice but to comply with the demands of certain forces.

No matter the cost, he would make the Shui family pay dearly!

He knew well the power of those forces!
