Don’t Mess with that Turtle
Chapter 667 - 667 163 Dance_1

667: Chapter 163 Dance_1 667: Chapter 163 Dance_1 Su He chuckled, “What is Elder Sister thinking?

Have you ever seen a Dragon Turtle turn thief?”

Dragon Turtles always rob openly!

But it would have been better if he hadn’t said anything; when he did, the way Baiyin looked at him became even more off.

“…”

In this era, is the home training of Dragon Turtles so poor?

As if truly afraid he would do something, Baiyin grabbed him, and with a flash, they were already at the place where they had just entered the Undamaged Realm.

Ice Lump Immortal Sovereign stood under the Jade Bamboo, motionless, gazing into the distance, letting the chaotic wind flutter about, messing up her clothes.

Her sash whipped behind her in the wind, the front of her clothes pressed against her body by the breeze.

Su He glanced at her and, indeed, she was the spitting image of Su Huanian.

With one hand barring his sight, Baiyin hissed in his ear, “Hey!

That’s not your lady, you know.

She’s not dead!”

Su He smiled, but then abruptly realized that one day, these two in front of him would die.

He didn’t need to wait too long; by the time he returned to the present, both would have died already.

Not to mention Baiyin; even White Spirit would have disappeared without a trace.

Baiyin seemed to notice the change in his expression and leaned in close to his face, teasingly said, “What’s wrong?

Afraid we’ll die?”

She pointed at Su He and burst out laughing, then patted him on the shoulder, “Relax, the moment I accidentally became Proof of Tao Immortal Sovereign, I couldn’t die even if I wanted to.

White Spirit is me, and I am White Spirit.

It’s just a change of skin~”

Her antics completely broke Su He’s somber mood.

Baiyin laughed, “Seeing as you’re so righteous…

wait here!

I’ll catch a few guards for you!”

Laughing, she pointed at her forehead, and her aura suddenly dropped, her mana completely sealed.

The female thief rubbed her hands with a grin, “Can’t use mana while catching guards, otherwise they won’t taste right!”

With that, she flashed into the bamboo grove, disappearing like a wild girl crashing into the thicket.

Tan Tai merely glanced and said, “Don’t mind her.

She’s just gone wild after staying indoors for thousands of years.”

Seal her own mana because she can’t use it?

What’s the point of telekinesis?

Without mana, even a tossed pebble could eliminate all the guards in the Undamaged Realm.

Baiyin just wanted to play.

“Go play with her,” whispered Tan Tai Immortal Sovereign.

Su He: “?”

Tan Tai Immortal Sovereign glanced at him and lightly pointed a line connected from Baiyin, deep within the bamboo grove, to Su He.

It was a combination of causality and marriage ties, a red thread condensing light as bright as a torch.

Su He’s puzzlement deepened.

Tan Tai Immortal Sovereign spoke in a cool voice, “You leave no trace in this world, coalescing your True Spirit as if creating something out of nothing.

She has experimented for three thousand years without success.

This time, she must have used special means to tie you with emotions, using affection as the thread to pull you, and only then did she succeed.”

It was not just affection, but everything.

Affection was merely the connecting thread.

Nearly binding an Immortal Sovereign completely to Su He by fate, luck, the future… everything tied together.

Or rather, she had cleaved half of her entirety and merged it into Su He’s body to forcefully coalesce his True Spirit.

If it were just a common body from another world, it wouldn’t have been so complicated.

But Su He’s memory was burdened with “Tao.” Ordinary means couldn’t coalesce his True Spirit, nor send it into reincarnation.

After a long silence, Su He asked softly, “Why?”

He didn’t understand!

They had only met by chance.

Not refining his body to extract the Tao Rhythm was one thing, but going to such lengths to revive him was completely illogical!

Moreover, it seemed like the Yuan Sovereign Clan had long known what White Spirit was going to do.

In the painting in the Evil-suppressing Taoist Palace, the Yuan Sovereign Clan said for sure that they would annihilate Su He’s next life…

Tan Tai looked at him, not concealing the answer, “Your physical body contains Tao, and merely perceiving its rhythm reveals that the Tao expounds on the ultimate truth of heaven and earth.

If we could obtain it, the Heavenly Sovereign might advance further.

But the Tao is hidden within your corpse.

Unable to extract or refine it, to gain this Tao, you would have to be revived and then pass it on yourself.”

She looked at Su He, “Originally, whether you lived or died was irrelevant; you would be sealed away somewhere else.

If the Yuan Sovereign Clan couldn’t get it, neither could we, and everything would remain as it was, with Mystery Yellow certain to win the battle!

However, Baiyin is adept at divination, the only one among the Immortal Sovereigns who could break through the Heavenly Secret Lock.

I don’t know what she saw, but she insisted on saving you.”

Yet saving him wasn’t enough; she refused to simply revive him.

Instead, she wanted to embed Su He’s True Spirit into this world and send it through reincarnation.

Baiyin would surely succeed, otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to summon Su He from the future.

But by undergoing reincarnation, Su He’s Tao would become even more obscured, likely leaving him unable to convey it himself.

What was she plotting?

Tan Tai Immortal Sovereign’s gaze toward Su He grew even more peculiar.

Not only Baiyin but even her future self was entwined with Su He’s fate, yet she knew not why.

Shaking her head, she said, “Regardless, Baiyin has staked everything on you, betting her own self and tying everything with affection.

I do not know whether, when you return, you will continue this timeline or arrive at another period.

I do not know if you will be able to see her again.

Right now, she loves to play.

What’s the harm in accompanying her for a moment?”

A riddler?

He hated riddlers the most.

To Su He, among loved ones, it didn’t matter if he had to die the next moment, but he couldn’t stand riddles.

He didn’t like the feeling that everything had been planned out.

Turning his head, Su He called out to Baiyin, who was returning with two Brocade Chicken-like guards, “Hey!

Why’d you save me!”

Baiyin looked up with a grin, and without the slightest concealment, she replied, “Because I excel at divination!

I’ve seen the future, witnessed heaven and earth shattering, seen the old turtle die, seen that old mudfish perish, seen Tan Tai die, seen this world die.”

She looked at Su He, her face smiling, “There are countless futures in the making, but no matter how I divine them, only the timing of their arrival and the manner of their deaths vary.

The outcome remains the same.”

If it’s the same, then it’s destined and unchangeable.

She turned to Su He, “But if I toss you into the future, everything becomes invisible.”

“The future is in chaos!”

Su He didn’t belong to this world, and destiny was truly unpredictable.

Anything could happen—it could be better, worse, or perhaps nothing would change at all.

But how much worse could things get?

Baiyin’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Su He, “I’ve placed all my bets on you.

If nothing goes wrong, Tan Tai has been wagered by me too, and maybe that little dragon is in the mix as well.

You figure it out!”

She looked utterly unconcerned, like a pig who’s not afraid of boiling water.

Su He was taken aback.

What does Tan Tai have to do with you?

Chasing after Su Huanian is all on his own merit!

As for Ji Feixue…

it’s not yet clear, but she probably has nothing to do with Baiyin.

Wait a second!

He looked at Baiyin suspiciously, “You just said that since you accidentally became an Immortal Sovereign, even wanting to die isn’t an option anymore!”

Baiyin was taken aback and then leaped at Su He with bared teeth, as if she was about to bite him to death, “Tan Tai, don’t you dare stop me, I’m going to bite him to death!”

Are you looking for flaws in me?

If the world dies, not even ten Immortal Sovereigns would survive!

Tan Taifeng took a step back, signaling that she wasn’t stopping anyone.

Baiyin was stunned, disbelief filling her face as she looked at her, “He’s your husband!”

The voice of Tan Tai Immortal Sovereign was cold, “Not yet.”

Baiyin had staked everything, emotions included, yet this was truly her first time seeing Su He.

She was not Su Huanian.

Baiyin huffed and showed her teeth to them both once, then turned away, heading to a nearby stream to pluck a chicken.

Su He watched silently for a moment before looking at Tan Tai, his eyes conveying a message, “Is what she said true?”

Tan Tai’s voice remained calm, without any change, “I don’t know.”

Baiyin’s words—she could never tell truth from the lie.

Su He looked at Baiyin, let out a sigh, and walked over to take the brocade chicken from her hands, “Go catch some bamboo rats, I’ll cook them for you when we get back.

They taste quite good too.”

Baiyin’s eyes suddenly lit up.

She darted off, but then half-way through, turned back, looking skeptically at Su He, “Do you know how to prepare brocade chicken?”

Su He looked at the brocade chicken in his hand, which was neither a Divine God Beast, an Exotic Beast, a Demon, nor even an ordinary beast.

He didn’t know which category it belonged to.

He looked up at Baiyin, “Pluck the feathers, gut it, chop off its head and tail, wrap it in lotus leaves and mud, then roast it?”

The excited Baiyin, who had run off, came back, looked at Su He with disdain.

And you’re a Dragon Turtle?

You have no clue at all.

You might as well just eat it raw!

She snatched the brocade chicken from Su He’s hands, continued plucking without removing the guts.

She didn’t even let the blood out, just cleaned the plucked chicken and stuffed it back into Su He’s arms, then collected the feathers, cleaned them, and brought them back to the bamboo grove.

“Let me teach you something proper!

Brocade chickens are not gutted.

Their own feathers are used to cook them, and their internal organs and blood will melt directly into the meat.

You don’t need to add any seasoning.

Their organs are the most suitable condiment for them, and even the saltiness is just right,” she explained.

Baiyin bobbed her head, showing off, “Don’t cut it open, don’t let out the blood.

Once you do, the fragrance will disperse, and it will become a mere ordinary wild chicken.”

As she spoke, she took fire flint from her brocade pouch at her waist and lit up some dry bamboo leaves, setting the colorful chicken feathers on fire.

The feathers of the brocade chicken were of many colors, dazzling and vibrant, as if a brocade chicken was dancing.

Baiyin then threw the cleaned plucked chicken into the flames, and the two fat chickens began to roll in the fire without touching the ground.

“This chicken…

evolved specifically to be eaten by humans?”

From the seasoning to the flames, they were self-contained, lacking only the initiative to jump onto a dinner table themselves.

Dancing flames…

Suddenly, Su He remembered something, looked up at Baiyin and Tan Tai, and said seriously, “Shield this area from heaven and earth for me, I need to display something.”

Tan Tai shook her head, “The Undamaged Realm is independent.

Heaven and Earth Laws cannot enter here, and even the starry sky is different from the outside world.”

Understood.

Su He nodded, closed his eyes, and a scene unfolded in front of him, Magic skill: Retrospection!

Memories resurfaced, displaying before him.

It wasn’t Divine Skills; just a magic skill that didn’t require the fusion of Dragon Turtle True Form or a past life body, and could be used without a bloodline.

A voice as melodious as a silver bell echoed, “Young clan member, this is the only time, watch closely and remember, do not forget!”

The lonely song of a stunningly beautiful woman danced barefooted on the water surface below the moonlight.

Behind her, a phantom of Xuan Wu appeared, reflecting in the moonlight, looking incredibly beautiful.

The dancing White Spirit—it was the dance she left behind during my second visit to the White Spirit Small World when I, still in my Turtle Body, awkwardly tried to dance in front of Su Huanian.

Su Huanian thought it seemed like a Cultivation Technique but couldn’t see through it.
