Chapter 4715: 4.0467 How Does It Feel?

Perhaps she had never realized that one wrong step leads to another, that one day, she, the dignified patriarch of the Forgetfulness River Long clan, would fall into such a predicament.

Qiao Mu remained expressionless, her gaze shifting to the Long clan patriarch. With a hint of mockery, she said coolly, "I just want you to personally experience what it feels like to be deprived."

[Didn't you want to disregard my will and strip the Ten-Thousand-Year Mermaid Pearl from my body? Didn't you want to possess the Ten-Thousand-Year Mermaid Pearl for yourself? No matter how nicely you sugarcoat it, you were heartlessly striking at me. You did it to Mother, and you're doing it to me! Do the mother and daughter inherently owe the Forgetfulness River Long clan a mountain of debt, born only to repay it?]

"How does the feeling of deprivation feel?" Qiao Mu asked, her eyes cool, gazing at the Long clan patriarch.

The Long clan patriarch's old, wrinkled face instantly contorted with uncontainable resentment.

"Qiao Mu! You, you, this, this."

Long Qian was so enraged she couldn't speak. Even the words "little beast" that she wanted to utter were caught in her throat due to the immense pain. She was in agony, too much agony! This pain originated from a deep-seated fear and despair within her bones and blood. Soon, the overwhelming rage she had just mustered was heavily seized by an even profounder terror.

She felt it, she... she genuinely felt it! Her water spiritual energy, her nine layers of spiritual water, were being forcibly extracted from her body by that terrifying Deprivation Power. No, she couldn't, she couldn't let this happen! She had no idea what would happen when a Transcendent Divine Realm cultivator lost their water spiritual energy. Would her cultivation level drop along with it? Or would she merely lose the power of water spiritual energy, unable to use it again? Or, would she plummet from a great height, losing all cultivation forever after?

She didn't know, she didn't know, she didn't know! This unknown fear made her fall into despair.

An unsuppressable, inexplicable panic pressed down in Long Qian's eyes. She quickly turned to the little poker face, yelling furiously, "Stop, stop! What do you want? Mu Qiao! Don't forget, I am still your maternal grandmother!"

Qiao Mu let out a scoff upon hearing this, suspended at the entrance of the Sea Sacrifice Abyss, her eyes coldly staring at the shouting Long clan patriarch. Long Qian was not only stubborn but also ridiculously absurd. At this point, she still had the nerve to cling to their familial relationship? What was she doing earlier?

"You can't do this," Long Qian desperately shrieked, repeatedly yelling at Qiao Mu, "Mu Qiao, I am your maternal grandmother. You, you can't deprive me of my water spiritual energy, no, ah..."

Qiao Mu didn't give her a chance to spout more nonsense. The Deprivation Power that had infused into her body was continuously surging, gradually filling her Dantian Star Domain. This power was too dominant and formidable, making it difficult for her to grasp it all at once. She would now have to slowly get accustomed to it and use it more often.

Long Qian let out a piercing scream. Her body suddenly went limp and collapsed downwards. The rushing hot current enveloped her, jolting her with a burning sensation. She shrieked, her neck slightly askew.

"Grand, Grandmother." Long Xiangyun fearfully swam a dozen meters forward, reaching out to catch Long Qian, whose body was faltering. Long Hui, however, rushed forward first, raising his hand to support the pale-faced Long clan patriarch, quickly asking, "Grand, Grandmother, what's wrong with you?"
