Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 925: Chapter 924 Descendant of the Divine Beast

Su Yang was absolutely dumbfounded. Today, those three Law Enforcers had indeed been extremely partial toward him, even making the Terrestrial Immortals uncomfortable.

Previously, Su Yang was unaware of what was happening, but now, he finally understood. It turned out that Huo Yuanzhen’s brother had been helping him from behind the scenes!

”Who exactly is her brother?” Su Yang asked in astonishment.

”Hehe...” Lian Wan Xiong gave a light laugh and waved his hand, ”Ask not, speak not.”

Su Yang was stunned, not understanding what that meant, but he was truly filled with curiosity about Huo Yuanzhen’s brother.

Suddenly, Lian Wan Xiong tapped Su Yang’s shoulder, the force flowing smoothly down into Su Yang’s pocket, shaking the Little Turtle that was sleeping inside.

Little Turtle shook its head, crawled out of the pocket, and looked around with a baffled expression, evidently still groggy from sleep.

Lian Wan Xiong reached out and picked up the Little Turtle, which seemed displeased and thrashed about with its jaws and claws. But its arms and legs were too short, and it couldn’t even touch Lian Wan Xiong, making all its efforts futile.

”Oh, quite a temper there!” Lian Wan Xiong laughed.

”Not only is it temperamental, but it also eats a lot!” Su Yang grumbled.

Little Turtle had somehow figured out how to get in and out of the Storage Bracelet and would sneak in from time to time to steal Spiritual Medicine. In just a few days, it had eaten quite a bit of Su Yang’s stock. If Su Yang hadn’t discovered it early and sealed away the medicinal materials inside with his power, this little creature probably would have eaten everything.

”It’s normal for them to eat a lot when they’re growing,” Lian Wan Xiong chuckled. ”After all, it’s the descendant of a Divine Beast!”

”You’re saying this little guy is a descendant of a Divine Beast?” Su Yang asked hurriedly. ”Which Divine Beast’s descendant is it?”

”Can’t you tell?” Lian Wan Xiong laughed. ”Haven’t you noticed that it looks a lot like Xuan Wu?”

Su Yang took a careful look at the little creature, then shook his head, ”It does look like a turtle, that’s true, but as for Xuan Wu, I don’t think so.”

Su Yang had initially thought that the little creature was a descendant of Xuan Wu, but having seen images of Xuan Wu, he noticed some differences with the little creature.

”It does look a bit different, perhaps it also inherited some features from its father,” Lian Wan Xiong said.

”Its father?” Su Yang was astonished. ”Isn’t its father also Xuan Wu?”

”Not necessarily,” Lian Wan Xiong shook his head. ”With its looks, we can only be sure its mother is Xuan Wu, but who its father is, that’s really hard to say.”

”This...” Su Yang was bewildered. ”Can Xuan Wu really have offspring with other creatures?”

”Why not?” Lian Wan Xiong said. ”Divine Beasts are rare in this world, and Xuan Wu, being a legendary beast, is said to be the only one. If they couldn’t reproduce with other creatures, wouldn’t Xuan Wu be extinct by now?”

”Oh,” Su Yang scratched his head and after thinking it over carefully, he realized it was indeed the case.

”It seems that originally it was its mother who brought it to the Divine Farmer Sect’s Old Site, sunk the Sect into the ground, leaving it there,” Lian Wanxiong said, ”And then set up a great formation outside, so no one could find their way in, allowing this little guy to grow up in peace.”

At this moment, Su Yang also finally understood what the situation at the Divine Farmer Sect’s Old Site was all about. After the Divine Beast Black Tortoise had laid this egg, it was sent to the old site, which led to all these events. Those Five Element Crimson Fruits, were likely left by Xuan Wu for the little one. As for the Black Tortoise Stone, undoubtedly, it was also left there by Xuan Wu at that time.

”This Xuan Wu really had a fierce way to go about things, wiping out the old Divine Farmer Sect entirely!” Su Yang said.

”Hehe...” Lian Wanxiong chuckled softly, ”You’ve destroyed quite a number of sects yourself, yet I haven’t seen you claim to be brutal.”

”Those I killed deserved to die,” Su Yang said.

”How do you know that the people of the Divine Farmer Sect back then didn’t deserve to die?” Lian Wanxiong countered.

Su Yang went silent, as he was not familiar with the people of the Divine Farmer Sect back then, only understanding the current batch, hence his feelings. Lian Wanxiong’s question indeed made it hard for him to answer.

”The Old Divine Farmer Sect was a malignant tumor at that time, causing harm to many people,” Lian Wanxiong said, ”Xuan Wu choosing them was justified.”

Su Yang, not knowing about the situation of the Old Divine Farmer Sect, was surprised upon hearing this, ”You know about the Old Divine Farmer Sect as well?”

”I’ve read some books about this...” Lian Wanxiong smiled, ”The books mentioned that the Old Divine Farmer Sect disappeared overnight, as if it never existed. Many people were puzzled by what happened, and some even went to the site of the Old Divine Farmer Sect to investigate why, but they found nothing and eventually let it go. If you hadn’t mentioned it, I wouldn’t even have known that such an event had occurred. Xuan Wu personally set up a great formation there, who could possibly get in?”

Su Yang looked at Lian Wanxiong with a surprised expression, ”Mr. Lian, by the way you talk, it seems like you greatly admire Xuan Wu. Is Xuan Wu’s strength that formidable?”

Lian Wanxiong glanced at Su Yang and spoke softly, ”Not just formidable, but extremely powerful. Remember, the ’divine’ in Divine Beast isn’t there for show. Compared to other beings at the same level, a Divine Beast is naturally a half or even a whole rank higher.”

”What do you mean?” Su Yang asked in astonishment, ”Simply put, even if you and a Divine Beast are both in the Venerable Realm, the Divine Beast can wield the power of a Terrestrial Immortal, whereas you would not be able to.”

”Ah?” Su Yang was dumbfounded, having not expected that Divine Beasts could be so powerful.

”Otherwise, how could it be called a Divine Beast?” Lian Wanxiong chuckled.

Su Yang, still stunned, looked at the small turtle in Lian Wanxiong’s hand. He suddenly reached out, took the little turtle, and gently caressed its shell on his palm, ”Little guy, are you hungry? Do you want some Spiritual Medicine?”

The little turtle looked utterly confused, clearly not understanding what had gotten into Su Yang. He usually wasn’t this generous; what had made him so generous now?

Lian Wanxiong laughed heartily and clapped Su Yang on the shoulder, ”You’re quite lucky to have encountered such a good opportunity. The first person this little one saw when it hatched was you. To such a Divine Beast, the first human they see is regarded as their parent.”

”What?” Su Yang felt overwhelmed, ”You’re not saying this little guy thinks of me as its dad, are you? I don’t even have a shell!”

”Not necessarily!” Lian Wanxiong chuckled and shook his head, winking, ”It might also think of you as its mom!”
