Chapter 1695: The Plan to Keep the Turtles
Long Fei was worried about heading to the Immortal King Star, as there was no expert on Jade Island to protect him.
Once the Turtle Clan arrived, he felt relieved.
If he could get these forces to join Jade Island, then even the experts from the Penglai Three Islands would need to consider the strength of the Black Tortoise Clan before exacting revenge.
Thinking of this, Long Fei clasped his fists and politely addressed the Black Tortoise Clan, "You have come a long way, gracing our Jade Island with your presence, bringing us great honor. You may take anyone you want, but that depends on Little Xuan’s own choice. Before the Ancestor Turtle left, he entrusted Little Xuan to me, and I cannot break my word. If Little Xuan wishes to leave with you, I will not stop him. But if Little Xuan wishes to stay, I will do everything to keep him here."
Upon hearing this, Gui Er’s eyebrows twitched with excitement, "I hope Sect Master Long will keep your word and not go back on it."
His eyes shifty, he looked at Little Xuan and clasped his fists, bowing, "Saint Heir, we are here to take you home. The Human Race may be nice, but it’s ultimately not your home. Come back with our clan members? Our Black Tortoise Clan has established a foundation in the Snow Country, and will surely help you grow to become a dominion ruler, restoring the glory of our Black Tortoise Clan."
Little Xuan, in a half-asleep, half-awake state, squinted at Long Fei and said, "Dad, who are they?"
He was originally accustomed to calling Long Fei master; Long Fei had him change it to Dad, just like the Little Kirin.
Although this seemed to take advantage of the Ancestor Turtle, it brought a sense of closeness.
The Old Turtle’s eyes widened, feeling some blood boiling, "Young Master, you shouldn’t call randomly! Ancestor Turtle is watching from the heavens! If you shout haphazardly, it’ll anger the elder."
Little Xuan ignored them and said, "You can leave! I won’t go with you. I’m quite happy with Dad and don’t need to change places."
Gui Er felt the blood rising inside, surprised by the Saint Heir’s attitude.
He looked at Long Fei again, wondering why this Human Race could say such things, evidently well-prepared.
Among the Black Tortoise Clan, a grand person was displeased.
Emerging from the water, his turtle shell was black, adorned with dragon scales, and even had two protruding horns on his head, resembling the Ancestor Turtle.
This old turtle stood up, and it was obvious he hadn’t moved for a long time, as his bones creaked like an elderly crouched man, silently approaching once he stood on the sea surface.
Gui Er saw him and quickly bowed, calling respectfully, "Elder Taixuan, please don’t hurry, I’m in the midst of negotiating."
Long Fei gazed at this Old Turtle, noticing the extraordinary Mystic Patterns on him, with the Divinity Transformation Realm pressure constantly manifested.
Each step spread the ripples across the sea like it turned to ice.
He stared at Long Fei impatiently, "What negotiations, Saint Heir is young and definitely bewitched by these Humans, not wishing to leave is normal. Since we’re here, we’ll leave with the Saint Heir, by any means necessary, rather than waste words with these Human race."
Long Fei squinted realizing this Old Turtle was likely the hardliner among the Turtle Clan.
He faced Gui Taixuan seriously, "Does the elder wish to use force?"
Gui Taixuan scrutinized him dismissively, "What if I do? You, a junior at the Nascent Soul Realm, think you can stop me?"
Gui Er covered his face, having not told this elder that the man had previously contended with more than a dozen Divinity Transformation Realm elders from the Purple Cloud Sect!
He immediately tried to mediate, "Everyone calm down, this can be resolved peacefully. Sect Master Long has earned merit raising the Saint Heir and risking his life to protect him on the Snowy Plains. Ancestor Turtle specifically left an edict entrusting Sect Master Long to care for the Saint Heir. Elder Taixuan, we must consider Ancestor Turtle’s intentions."
Elder Taixuan snorted lightly, "Gui Er, you’re just too cunning, lacking our Black Tortoise Clan’s aura. Some matters can’t be negotiated, it’s clear these Humans wish to keep the Saint Heir to extract benefits from us."
Long Fei coughed lightly, realizing no clan was foolish, his little intentions easily spotted by this Old Turtle.
He frankly said, "Since the elder has spoken this far, I have no more to say. As I said before, if you use force, I’ll risk my life not to let you succeed. If you negotiate peacefully, perhaps we can find a suitable resolution."
Elder Taixuan raised his hand, and a sharp three-foot Azure Long Sword swiftly flew into his hand, lazily addressing Long Fei, "This old bag of bones hasn’t moved for a thousand years. Since we’re here, let’s have a contest. If you can defeat me, then we’ll discuss the terms."
Chu Feng, watching from behind, said agitatedly, "Old Turtle, my brother is speaking kindly to you, do you think you’re invincible?"
His fiery temper tempted him to confront the Old Turtle immediately.
Long Fei stopped him, knowing Elder Taixuan was not easy to deal with.
"Then let’s spar!"
He gestured to his disciples to retreat into the formation behind, keeping a distance on the beach from the Old Turtle.
Elder Taixuan stared at Long Fei, "Our Black Tortoise Clan may not fight normally, but we have our temper. If you decide to act recklessly, don’t blame me for being impolite."
The Old Turtle directly revealed his Dharma Laksana, the Black Tortoise Coiling Serpent.
The true heritage of the Black Tortoise Tribe: Mystic Turtle for defense, Soaring Snake for attack.
Once this snake emerged, bathed in red light, resembling a Fire Dragon, it coiled over ten meters long in the air, sweeping toward Long Fei.
In the cultivators’ magical duels, Magical Treasures came first, followed by Dharma Laksanas, and then the physical body.
The Demon Clan was bitter; they lacked suitable Magical Treasures. The Azure Sword likely forged using the Snow Country Immortal-Demon Battlefield’s Azure Stone wasn’t any special Divine Sword.
This Fire Dragon was something Long Fei had encountered before, moreover facing the Fire Snake summoned by the Ancestor Turtle.
In comparison, the Fire Snake conjured by Elder Taixuan seemed merely the size of a worm in Long Fei’s eyes.
While this appeared massive to Long Fei, the others witnessing such a grandiose Dharma Laksana for the first time were all left stunned and worried, mouths agape.
The Divinity Transformation Realm pressure of the Fire Snake swept the beach, burning it into glass along the way.
The surrounding temperature suddenly increased, with nearby seawater even emitting mist.
Long Fei stood hands behind his back, the corners of his mouth subtly lifted.
If Elder Taixuan used other Techniques, Long Fei might need to exert more effort to confront them.
But in dealing with the Soaring Snake Dharma Laksana, he had extensive experience.
A black light shimmered on his body, dense patterns appeared on his skin akin to wearing Turtle Shell Armor.
A towering over hundred-meter Black Tortoise Dharma Laksana quickly stood around him.
Resembling the Ancestor Turtle’s presence, standing on the beach like a black mountain, its emergence summoned fierce winds swirling rapidly around Long Fei.
