Don’t Mess with that Turtle

135: Chapter 008 Toad (Seeking First Subscription)_1 135: Chapter 008 Toad (Seeking First Subscription)_1 Su He opened his bleary eyes and looked ahead.

On the boundless ocean, a huge sea dog swam towards him, a delicate lounging chair, the size of a watermelon, perched on its head.

A green-skinned toad with its legs crossed was reclining on it, donning a mink jacket and puffing on a huge pipe.

It cursed all the way over.

As the toad lay on the chair gazing at the sky, it took a puff of dry tobacco and cursed its parents.

Only when the sea dog reached the shore did the toad prop itself up and look this way, “Let’s see, which little turtle stole my…”

It abruptly froze, and then burst into hysterical shouting, “Dammit, Green Flower’s toad!

A Dragon Turtle!”

The pipe fell from the toad’s claw with a clatter, and the glowing tobacco embers popped out, landing on the sea dog’s head.

The sea dog yelped and flipped the chair over along with the toad, its front flippers slapping against its head.

The pipe toad fell into the sea.

The tobacco didn’t go out even in the water, crackling and popping.

The toad, drenched in its mink coat yet oblivious, stared at Su He in shock.

Suddenly, it started jumping around, “Go to hell!

Where did this Dragon Turtle come from?

How could there be a Dragon Turtle?!”

“Which Dragon Turtle egg has hatched?

It hasn’t even been a thousand years; how could a Dragon Turtle have appeared?” it ranted, scratching its head in a refusal to accept reality.

Green Snake swam clumsily over and tilted its head at the toad: “A demon?”

The toad suddenly looked up, “What’s the matter with being a demon?

You looking down on demons?

Your Frog Lord here is the only great demon in this world…”

“Not a demon, a Soul Beast!” It prattled on and on, while Su He, scrunching his nose, took a sniff and said so.

Having spent a long time with Elder Ge’s Soul Beast above his head, Su He was now very familiar with the scent of Soul Beasts.

No matter how much the toad smoked, the illusory yet corporeal scent that seemed not to belong to this realm couldn’t be concealed.

A talking Soul Beast must be at least Third Grade.

The toad’s voice squeaked as it was choked back into its throat.

It squinted at Su He for a long time, “Melon baby, you’re not a native Dragon Turtle; you’re a foreigner!” Which native Dragon Turtle would know about Soul Beasts, such a peculiar thing, huh?

That was a lot to process, so Su He squinted at it: “Are there Dragon Turtles here?”

“Not a chance!” the toad spat with disgust: “If there were really Dragon Turtles, would I have been trapped here for thousands of years?”

“Toad, no swearing!” Feng Yaya stood with hands on her hips, looking down at the toad, a glint in her eyes.

She was taller than the toad!

A younger sibling!

The toad was taken aback, its eyelids twitching, “Melon baby, if you, as a toad, had been around as long as I have and could still talk, I’d deem you Divine.”

It stood up, treading water with a pitter-patter and approached Feng Yaya, looking up defiantly.

Feng Yaya was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly understood.

She reached out a small hand to pat its head, “Good toad!

Don’t fuss, go play!”

When she used to mess up and looked at Aunt Lin like that, Aunt Lin would do the same thing.

The toad blinked in astonishment.

Su He walked behind it, blocking the toad’s escape route: “What’s this about the Dragon Turtle you mentioned?”

The toad turned around and rubbed its claws together, now you’re talking about something I’m interested in.

It croaked twice and said, “Do you even know where you are?”

Su He shook his head.

“I don’t even know!” the Toad said with a touch of pride, “But I do know that once you enter this place, you can’t leave.

Only the Dragon Turtle can take people out.”

“Why?” Su He was curious.

The Dragon Turtle also had the ability to break through the realm for travel?

The Toad spread its hands, “Who knows?

Maybe this place used to be a nest of some Dragon Turtle, or perhaps a Dragon Turtle created it for fun or to raise its illegitimate offspring.

Anyway, I know that only the Dragon Turtle can see the boundary and traverse out of here.”

It looked at Su He, “Let’s collaborate, how about that?

You sell me some Dragon Turtle True Blood, and once I breed the next batch of Dragon Turtles capable of leaving, I’ll take you out with them.”

Su He looked at it strangely.

The Toad waved its hand, “I know what you’re thinking.

You think that once you transform into the Divine God Beast Dragon Turtle, you’ll be able to come and go as you please—young man, you’re thinking too much!

Who can transform into a Dragon Turtle just because they wish to?”

“Haven’t you noticed that the beasts here are not afraid of you, as if they can’t sense your aura?

A real Dragon Turtle has roamed this place before, and the beasts here only fear the real Dragon Turtle!

You don’t have the Divine essence of the Dragon Turtle!”

The Toad spoke earnestly, “Listen to Frog Lord.

I’ve been here for thousands of years, collecting the Dragon Turtle Qi to nurture the Turtle Eggs.

After a millennium of incubation, they are born with the aura of the Dragon Turtle.

As long as the Turtle Eggs are sprinkled with your Dragon Turtle True Blood, the next hatching will surely produce purer Dragon Turtles.

There’s only a hundred years left until the next hatching.

If you’re willing to cooperate, maybe we can get out next time.”

After speaking, the Toad looked at Su He with hope, “Deal or no?

I promise not to harm you, you’ll be greatly nourished right after the True Blood is collected!”

Su He immediately moved away.

The Dragon Turtle True Blood originated from the Dragon Turtle Dao Body within the Mind Orifice.

Each time a bit of the Dao Body was consumed, an equivalent amount of True Blood was formed.

If the True Blood was harvested, what would he replenish?

The Dao Body was already fading away!

“Don’t look at me with that kind of eyes!” the Toad stamped its foot and said, “Don’t be incredulous, three thousand years ago a Little Dragon Turtle also blundered in here, not listening to our advice, acting arrogant, thinking it could transform into the Divine God Beast.

It ate the Green-black Demonic Fruit that was as black as it was green!

Even it failed to become the Divine God Beast Dragon Turtle, its Turtle Shell is still lying at the bottom of the sea.

What are your chances?”

The Green-black Demonic Fruit is so rare it appears once in ten thousand years!

There would be no more chances like that.

Seeing that Su He was still avoiding it, and even moving further away, the Toad suddenly became very frustrated, “Hey!

If you don’t become a Dragon Turtle, you’re going to die trapped here.

I, as a Soul Beast, have infinite lifespan.

Don’t you plan on getting out?

If you miss this chance, it’s going to be another thousand years before the next hatching!”

You’re just a Turtle with Dragon Turtle ancestry.

This place is full of Exotic Beasts, and your survival is not even guaranteed.

Su He’s eyes shone, “I’m not leaving!”

Unconcerned with returning home or travelling elsewhere.

The Toad suddenly froze, then the Mink Jacket came off and smacked down on the sea surface.

It pointed a claw at Su He, stuttering the word “you” for a long time without being able to speak.

Finally, it stamped its foot and looked at Su He with disappointment, picked up its small chair from the water, hopped back onto the Sea Dog’s head, and sat down hard.

It rummaged around for a while looking for its Pipe but couldn’t find it, which made it even angrier.

Another stubborn Turtle!

The one three thousand years ago was the same, and so is this one now.

All those with Dragon Turtle lineage have a mule’s stubbornness, bashing their heads until they bleed without turning back!

It stamped its foot in frustration, while the Sea Dog below tilted its head, not understanding.

The Toad felt even more aggrieved.

How stupid!

Why did it choose such a creature as a mount?

It pulled out a small, exquisite whip from underneath the small chair and lashed it with a crack.

The Sea Dog immediately understood and paddled all four fins at the same time, speeding off at a breakneck pace.

Short-sighted Turtle!

The Toad cursed and mumbled, and in the midst of cursing, it suddenly raised its head: Did that Turtle just speak human language?
