Chapter 30: The Eight-Year-Old Snow Spirit Lord! (1)
The Snow Spirit Lord, paralyzed on the ground, had forgotten that she was still in danger.
Now her mind was filled with images of Bai Lian effortlessly killing Ji Shi.
Except for the little effort exerted while defeating Ji Shi, Bai Lian didn't use much strength throughout the journey.
However, she won easily.
Because she was both strong and clever!
"Hiss --"
The power of the Immortal Emperor is incredibly dreadful!
The Snow Spirit Lord couldn't help but gasp in the cold air.
Bai Lian's peerless wisdom was on display during her time in Nanwang City where she effortlessly thwarted the evil plot aimed at destroying Nanwang Country.
This time, Bai Lian managed to solve Ji Shi's puzzle, which had stumped her for over ten years, relying solely on her own wisdom.
The Snow Spirit Lord shook her head discreetly.
When she caught Bai Lian, she initially thought that Bai Lian was just average.
But now, it appears that Bai Lian allowed herself to be captured on purpose!
Sometimes, the gap between people is wider than that between people and turtles!
The Snow Spirit Lord was both afraid of being bullied by Bai Lian and had a great admiration for her.
If she could be as good as Bai Lian…
Hmm.
The Snow Spirit Lord's body suddenly jerked as though she had been paralyzed.
Not good.
She was feeling dizzy.
She… She…
Putong.
The three Snow Spirit Lords riding on the back of the turtle simultaneously fell unconscious and collapsed on the ground.
"…"
Bai Lian was left speechless.
She wanted to explain it verbally or aloud.
"I am not a reincarnated Immortal Emperor and I don't know where this turtle came from. In short, we should not believe or spread rumors!"
However, the Snow Spirit Lord was inexplicably depleted.
Thinking about the power of the Snow Spirit Lord, Bai Lian felt a bit frightened.
She will be killed if the Snow Spirit Lord finds out the truth!
The Snow Spirit Lord is not the only one who appears dangerous; the turtle she's stepping on also looks threatening.
Stay calm and don't panic.
Engage in play with them initially.
I need to ensure my safety before I think about anything else.
Bai Lian, having made a decision, hurried over to the corpse of Ji Shi.
Ji Shi had passed away, yet his belongings were still remarkably well-maintained.
Most of it consisted of Spirit Stones and Medical Pills that had been used by Ji Shi to bolster his life force, and which would prove to be highly beneficial for Bai Lian as well.
Following these were a spare astrolabe and a heap of materials for both magic arrays and refining, all of which held immense value.
Lastly, there lay a piece of green wood nestled inside a metal box. Handling the object, Bai Lian felt overcome by a soothing warmth that seemed to wash over her.
This object must be quite extraordinary.
I'll inquire about its significance from the sect leader once I return to the Duxian sect.
Bai Lian composedly stowed away all of these items in her chest.
Great!
Bai Lian smiled as she glanced down at her ample bosom.
We finally have enough funds to raise our Younger Martial Sisters!
Upon her return, she will be able to single-handedly support the cultivation of the three younger Martial Sisters and the jade rabbit in just a short period of time.
Bai Lian felt that she could restrain herself from scolding Ji Shi too much, considering the wealth he had brought her.
She briskly walked back to her original position and calmly looked at the turtle.
Stare~
At last, it was the turtle who spoke first.
After all, he was the one who took the initiative to talk to Bai Lian, feeling that this was a polite way to introduce himself as a gentle old turtle.
"Fairy Bai Lian, it is I, your Master…"
Please wait a moment!
The turtle's smiling face suddenly froze, almost revealing the existence of An Lan!
He remembered what An Lan had said to him before she left--
"Don't tell Bai Lian that I've been here, or else I will dismantle your shell!"
The turtle felt very alarmed/danger signals.
It's truly mesmerizing/stunning/exquisite.
He shook the water off his head and immediately introduced himself saying, "I'm a turtle from the Return Ruins located in the East Sea."
Bai Lian nodded softly.
"I see!"
I've never heard of it!
The turtle said, "Fairy Bai Lian, you have a great reputation. Despite living in the deep sea, I have heard of you and admired you for a long time. It's a great honor to finally meet you today!"
I don't believe a single word you said!
Bai Lian expressed her disdain.
But as a person with a "higher EQ," she said:
"Those are just rumors and can't be considered true."
Really? I find it hard to believe!
The turtle remarked, "Fairy Bai Lian, you are too humble."
As it gazed upon Bai Lian, whose entire body was covered in "Death" words, it pondered that even the most cowardly of generals would not defend themselves so diligently.
Typically, Bai Lian would have perished.
Yet, not only is Bai Lian still alive, but they also defeated Ji Shi not too long ago.
The turtle sensed that there was something peculiar happening!
Perhaps Bai Lian is receiving blessings from the heavens for her daily good deeds.
Let's go.
The turtle let out a sigh.
Being a Natural Saint is truly a challenging task!
It now holds great admiration for Bai Lian. If it had been in his place, it would have easily fallen prey to the "Death" words.
It spoke up, offering, "Fairy Bai Lian, where would you like to go? I can give you a ride."
Bai Lian was presented with new task options before her eyes.
[Task 1: Turn down the turtle (Reward: Alchemy +3)]
[Task 2: Accept the turtle's generosity (Reward: Painting+2)]
These are all skill points.
Bai Lian, who was still recovering from the fright, decided to compose herself and remain calm.
