Moreover, why hadn’t the Divine God Card remained on his past self’s body?
Erecting a monkey statue here only he knew about, as well as leaving behind handwriting, wasn’t that telling him not to worry, that the card was left behind by himself?
Why not leave more information?
Su He exhaled deeply, could it really be as Ji Feixue said, that some things can’t be spoken aloud, and can only be hinted at in this way?
As he pondered, Su Huanian beside him raised a hand and placed it on the Turtle Shell.
Although she didn’t understand what had happened to Su He, she was there with him.
On the other side, Ran Hou stood quietly, seeming to have sensed the delicate atmosphere, not speaking a word.
After a while, Su He came back to his senses, and seriously said to him, “I’ve taken the treasure from within the Dragon Turtle!”
Ran Hou looked at Su He, puzzled.
Su He sighed and thought, I’m taking what’s rightfully mine, but how do I explain that to you?
He gritted his teeth and gave a huff, “This item and I are fated, I must take it.
Even if it requires killing and plundering, I will take it!
If you want something, have any requests, just name it!”
Ran Hou opened his mouth.
Wasn’t it natural for the ancestor to come back and retrieve his own items?
But looking at the Dragon Turtle, it didn’t seem to be the ancestor.
Another Dragon Turtle, perhaps?
He swallowed hard, looking up at Su He: “May I make two requests?”
“Certainly!” This Sect had been guarding the forbidden land; could it be a legacy left from his past life?
In any case, it was inextricably linked to him.
Not just two, even three or five requests wouldn’t matter, as long as he could fulfill them.
Ran Hou bowed deeply: “I ask the senior to proclaim to the world that the treasure of Illusory Snow Gate has been taken by the senior!
The Illusory Snow Gate is too weak to bear the burden of a treasure that connects to heaven.”
An innocent man harbors no blame, but possession of a gem does.
Today it was the Dragon Turtle, the Su Fairy.
Had it been Gui Zang Valley, the entire Illusory Snow Gate would likely have been exterminated.
To say there was no pain in the heart about that would be a lie.
But the Illusory Snow Gate couldn’t protect the treasure anyway, or else they wouldn’t have guarded the forbidden land for who knows how many eons without obtaining it.
It’s hard to believe no one thought to try smashing the monkey and Dragon Turtle statues to take a look.
Even he, Ran Hou, had tried countless times, but couldn’t break them!
Yet in front of the Dragon Turtle, the statues shattered with a single touch, and the treasure joyfully threw itself into the lap of its owner, its rightful belonging clearly shown without words.
Maybe it was a matter of rightful ownership!
The Wisdom Sword cuts through greed, and the Illusory Snow Gate’s existence over these years relied upon timely knowledge and the absence of treasures within the Sect!
“Certainly!” Su He readily agreed, the matter was simple.
Later, when Illusory Snow Gate emerged, they simply had to release their presence, make an appearance of taking the treasure, and that would be enough.
Not far from this place lies the Jixia Academy.
When Su He released his presence, Jixia Academy was bound to notice.
And what Jixia Academy knows, the Four Directions Sect naturally becomes aware of.
“What’s the second?” Su He asked him.
Ran Hou licked his lips before saying, “If it’s possible…
may our Sect announce the senior’s name?
May we use the senior’s name to protect our main Sect?”
Su He glanced at him, this fellow pretending to be foolish but was exceedingly clever, seemingly simple and naive but knowing precisely what was most needed.
Su He shook his head: “I can stand against the Jixia Academy, the Ten Major Immortal Doors, but how many ordinary Sects would recognize me?”
Ran Hou was taken aback, coming to a realization.
The greatest enemy of the Illusory Snow Gate was actually not the top-tier Sects, those legendary Sects who didn’t even bother with them, perhaps not even aware of Illusory Snow Gate’s existence.
Even Gui Zang Valley had not bothered with them for thousands of years!
Their real enemies had always been the lesser Sects on par with the Illusory Snow Gate, those Sects whose insights were no greater than his.
A look of dejection rose on Ran Hou’s face.
Then he saw the Dragon Turtle across from him holding A Simple Jade, checking the Map, and then he said: “I’ll have the Qianji Door send over a marker later.”
Ran Hou was instantly overjoyed!
Within the territory of the Academy, the Sovereign existence was naturally the Jixia Academy.
But Jixia Academy was so high above, like the stars of the Nine Heavens, unreachable for the Sects below.
Those who the lower Sects could still look up to were, in fact, the hundred Sects beneath Jixia Academy.
Qianji Door was also immensely powerful, with a Sect Leader at the Stepping Sky Six-fold and a Supreme Elder at the Stepping Sky Five-fold in their midst.
Their protection, to some extent, even surpassed that of the Jixia Academy.
Su Huanian laughed, “Do you recognize friends from the Qianji Door?”
Su He naturally shook his head, “Of course not!
But there aren’t any grudges between Qianji Door and the Dragon Turtle.”
As they were not enemies, they would certainly be happy to help the Dragon Turtle with a small favor.
Just establishing a sign to protect a small Sect of a thousand people was no big deal.
There was no need even for the pretense of taking the treasure from the forbidden land.
The Dragon Turtle’s name didn’t carry much weight among these lower Sects, but among the higher Sects, it was quite valuable.
The two departed from the forbidden land under the high-hanging full moon.
The matter here was thus concluded.
Su Huanian thought for a moment, unsheathed her sword, and with a single motion, two streaks of Sword Qi fell into the Illusory Snow Gate, one hidden underground and the other suspended above, undetectable by the Sect, but detectable a hundred miles away from the mountain by the chilling Sword Qi.
Su He considered for a moment, then a Mountain Divine God Seal emerged from his mouth, floating above the main hall of the Illusory Snow Gate’s Sect Leader.
Ran Hou was momentarily startled, his face revealing a trace of sorrow: “Are the two seniors about to leave?
My Illusory Snow Gate has not yet had the chance to host you.”
This was leaving several protections for the Sect; it seemed they really were not willing to reclaim their status as the ancestor.
Without speaking, Su Huanian looked at him, while Su He chuckled and glanced at him, “You still owe me a favor!”
Su He had already laughed, scooped up Su Huanian, and leapt out of the Illusory Snow Gate.
It was time to leave.
There was a Kan Trigram within his body, that darn thing too annoying, incessantly draining Spiritual Power.
The Source Stones he carried were not plentiful—he practically couldn’t carry more.
The Origin produced from Su He’s Suppressing Land was in great demand; it was barely breaking even, with no excess to spare!
