874: Chapter 235 Father-in-law_3 874: Chapter 235 Father-in-law_3 A puppet stall had appeared at some time or another,
where two boys were energetically hawking their wares: “Master puppets, your wishes come true!
Whatever story you mention, they can perform!”
Their cries left them thirsty and exhausted, and seeing that the audience still didn’t believe them, the boys’ bodies slightly shook and transformed into two plump wooden puppets.
This immediately drew gasps of amazement from the crowd.
Off to the side, a young lady’s face turned slightly red, and while no one was paying attention, she quickly and discreetly purchased several puppets.
With a brief glance at the puppet master on the carriage, who sat motionless and absorbed, even a touch excited as he carved an image of a Dragon Turtle.
Only this Dragon Turtle also had a Spirit Snake coiled upon its back.
In just a moment, the Dragon Turtle’s shape was nearly complete, and at this time, the puppet master was inscribing a name onto the Dragon Turtle’s plastron.
It wasn’t Su He, but Xuan Wu!
But these two characters seemed even more difficult to carve than the entire puppet, and with each stroke, the puppet master had to exert his full strength.
Before even completing a single character, the puppet master could no longer persist and, panting, placed the unfinished Xuan Wu into his box.
Once the lid was closed, the box was plunged into darkness, and after who knows how long, a White Turtle crawled out from a corner of the box.
That White Turtle was originally very beautiful, but now its shell was tattered and many scales had fallen off, as if it had been in a corrosive environment.
Upon crawling out, it cocked its head to look at the new Xuan Wu puppet, eyes flickering with astonishment.
Six parts joy, three parts anger, and one part confusion.
Staring at the Xuan Wu, which hadn’t begun to move yet, the White Turtle spent a good while in a daze before biting the Xuan Wu’s neck and dragging it over to the also motionless White Dragon puppet.
Then, it nestled between the White Dragon and the Black Turtle and fell into a deep sleep.
Outside, the puppet master was oblivious, chewing on a willow twig, gazing at the sky, and occasionally casting a sidelong glance at the miss and young masters around his stall, and even more so at some weathered matrons.
Time passed day by day amidst this playful noise.
The Mystery Yellow Cave Sky had quieted down; almost no one was left in the Baiyun Palace.
Only at the borders did cultivators from the Mystery Huang World continue to meditate and patrol, preventing those who had escaped into the Dark Tide from returning.
Occasionally someone was in the center, no longer fighting, but beginning the real treasure hunt.
The Mystery Yellow Cave Sky was rich in Spiritual Energy and filled with numerous treasures.
This was also a major reason why many cultivators from All Heavens and Myriad Realms were attracted.
Inside the Taihe Palace, the Grand Ancestor Clone slept with closed eyes.
On the Turtle Shell, a Little Dragon Turtle lay sprawled, its body streaked with bolts of lightning.
Following the old lady around, Ya Ya never stopped talking, having eaten treasures for two whole years, and at this moment, began to slowly refine them into her own strength.
This was also a big reason why Thai Zu had forcibly shut her down and let her fall into a deep sleep.
In a corner of the Taihe Palace, completely frozen over, Su Huanian was encased in ice, motionless.
Yet her aura continued to climb steadily. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel[f]ire.net
Sword Intent surged, and her Domain, unbeknownst to when, softly unfurled.
Her corner was enveloped in swirling snow.
Each snowflake that fell seemed to accumulate a strand of Sword Qi.
Her entire Domain was like a Sword Intent with Hidden Edge.
The accumulated snow represented the concealed Sword Qi, which if ever unleashed would surely rend heaven and earth.
As the Domain opened, Su Huanian’s ever-increasing aura slowed down instead.
The Grand Ancestor Clone slowly opened his eyes and looked towards Su Huanian, satisfaction apparent in his gaze.
Beside his ear, a voice came through.
“True to Tan Tai reincarnated, as long as she is given a chance, she will soar like a dragon into the sea or a phoenix riding the winds.
No one can stop her ascension.”
A phantom of a Phoenix, as big as a rooster, coalesced next to the head of Thai Zu.
Thai Zu glanced at it, his whiskers drifting in the air, “The granddaughter-in-law of the Dragon Turtle Family is naturally extraordinary!”
Pride was evident in his words.
The Phoenix stilled its wings for a moment, nodding in agreement, “Well said!
Tan Tai Immortal Sovereign is truly a Greater Power; otherwise, what chance would he have had against you?”
Talking this way, curiosity even seemed to gather on the Phoenix’s face, “Did you resist when you were strung up and beaten by Tan Tai Immortal Sovereign back in the day?”
Suddenly, Thai Zu’s face became a picture of emotion.
The Phoenix burst out laughing.
If it didn’t embarrass this Old Turtle once in a while, he could go on and on, flaunting his granddaughter-in-law.
Despite always seeming calm and collected in front of the younger generations, as if not even the collapse of heaven and earth would change his expression, in front of them, he was the one who boasted the most.
He never showed off himself; his bragging was always about his descendants.
When he was White Spirit, those were thirty thousand years of the Old Turtle walking tall and proud.
Now, with Su He—Su He had cheated, so the Old Turtle was too embarrassed to show off.
But Su He’s two daughters-in-law, they were always on his lips, never dropping the subject.
Especially since not long after Su He achieved Proof of the Dragon Turtle, he had sired a daughter.
At that time, throughout the entire Star Sea, the Old Turtle’s laughter raged rampant for three days.
Struck by a blow, Thai Zu clenched his teeth in silent frustration.
Seeing him stop his boasting, the Phoenix Ancestor finally woke up completely and spoke up, “That little dragon went after Emperor Luan into the Great Sun Tomb.”
It was unexpected that the Mountain and River Ding could lead to the Great Sun Tomb; seems like those of the Seal Emperor’s group had done much under their noses unbeknownst to others.
that’s where a dead Great Sun lay.
The corpse of the Great Sun had been lying dormant there for who knows how long, changing the entire environment of the tomb; even they did not wish to enter lightly.
The Great Sun did not belong to their side; one could imagine what the environment there would be like.
After a long silence, Thai Zu finally spoke, “Just wait a bit longer.
If he doesn’t come out in five years, forget about the Old Dragon; the Old Turtle will storm in there!
He might be willing to risk his descendants, but the Old Turtle certainly can’t afford to lose his granddaughter-in-law!”
The Phoenix Ancestor laughed lightly, was it really a matter of willingness and unwillingness?
With the Old Dragon suppressing the Star Sea Continent, how could he possibly move lightly.
