Chapter 295: Invitation
Eight-gate Turtle?
Was it a coincidence or a deliberate arrangement?
Lin Xuan had a smile on his face, but his aura gradually rose, and the terrifying might of a Dragon King began to spread. He did not believe that this was a coincidence. The bridge in front of him might have been broken by the Turtle Clan!
“Sir, I’m a good turtle, and this bridge wasn’t broken by our clan. Look at that smooth cut, it’s not something we can do!”
Lin Xuan took a few steps forward to take a look. It was true, the damage to the bridge was not an accident but man-made. It was not broken by a fist either. It should have been broken by a sharp knife, no… a saber! It would be obvious who did it. It was the Saber Dog Clan!
Lin Xuan already had an answer in his heart, and the smile on his face became more and more fake. “Then, may I know what business you have here?”
“I just wanted to take advantage of the situation in exchange for some food or fun. Of course, I will also carry you across the river. Do you think this deal is feasible?”
Lin Xuan was speechless.
Lin Xuan really had no way of getting out of this situation. Although he could use his great divine power to cross, it would consume too much energy. If he was alone, it would be better, but the problem was that there were many ninjas and yellow-rank ability users.
This was very troublesome!
It was not impossible for them to go into the water, but there were too many of them. No matter how good Lin Xuan was in the water, it would be dangerous for him to protect everyone. It would not be good if he lost one or two people along the way.
Although the turtle said that he was here to gain things, it had to be said that between some resources and the safety of people, Lin Xuan would definitely choose people!
“You can’t carry so many of us on your own!”
“Of course, that’s why I have my family here to bring everyone across.”
The smile on Lin Xuan’s face grew even more radiant when he saw that the turtle had come prepared. However, the story of the eight gates opening terrified him.
Lin Xuan didn’t fall out with him and was prepared to make a deal with him. Lin Xuan naturally didn’t need to do anything about this. A Chuunin in the team volunteered to negotiate with the turtle. After paying a large amount of food, some glass marbles, and two to three mirrors, the deal was complete.
“You never know when you need these things. When Wood Mountain appeared, our people exchanged many good things with the toads there!”
The Eight-gate Turtle was famous for its ferocity. Countless beasts had to give way to the Turtle Clan. If they didn’t, the Eight-gate Turtle would fight back.
The turtle and his family carried Lin Xuan and the rest and swam slowly toward the other side. Terrifying black shadows flashed across the water from time to time, but when they sensed the presence of the Turtle Clan, they hesitated for a moment before sinking again. The Eight-gate Turtle was an amphibious beast, and it was not a problem hiding in the deep sea!
Ten minutes later, Lin Xuan and the rest arrived at the other side of the river safely.
“If you want to go back, you can look for me. Our whole family will be there before the bridge is rebuilt.”
Lin Xuan thought about it for a moment and finally asked with a smile, “Do you lack food or something?”
“Of course. It’s not easy to survive in the world these days. The prestige of the eight gates is only enough to intimidate those wolves, tigers, and leopards. If we want to have a meal, we have to find it ourselves.”
The turtle sighed. The Eight-gate Turtle beasts were famous, but not enough for food to appear at their doorstep. For the continuation of the Turtle Clan Clan, they could only come out to find food by themselves. This time, they had no choice but to threaten ninjas and ability users. Otherwise, some of his children would have starved to death.
One must know that it was not impossible to completely exterminate the Turtle Clan. As long as all the Turtle Clans were exterminated first, even if the Eight-gate Turtle died in battle, there would be no new Eight-gate Turtles born.
“Is it possible if we form an alliance?”
Lin Xuan was all smiles. The Turtle Clan was kind in nature and was considered a neutral party. If Lin Xuan and the others could provide enough food and protect some of them as a condition, they might be able to pull them in!
There was no need to mention the strength of the Eight-gate Turtle. The Invisible Armored Turtle was not without combat power. Although it could not open eight gates, there were many Invisible Armored Turtles that could open the first four gates. Moreover, they were also proficient in physical attacks.”
“Please let me think about it. To be honest, I’m willing to do so, but I don’t know what others may think. I will get back to you about it if possible.”
“Of course, you can!”
When the turtles left, the smile on Lin Xuan’s face disappeared. Chongren, who was behind him, gritted his teeth and walked forward.
“It won’t be that easy.”
“Oh, why do you say so?”
“When Taixia first came to this world instance, we appeared in Muxia Village. At that time, we were not called Muxia, but Muye. There were some native humans in the village. According to them, the current chaotic situation was not only caused by the Nine Tail Fox, but also by the betrayal of the spiritual beast!”
The betrayal of the spiritual beast?
Lin Xuan furrowed his brows. This was going to be a difficult matter. Once bitten, twice shy, this was a very normal mentality.
Forget it, where there’s a will, there’s a way. If it can be done, it’ll be done. if it doesn’t, so be it!
