Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1575: Chapter 1574: Leading Little Turtle Astray

Long Yi really had no choice but to lock up this little creature. However, no matter what he used, he couldn’t keep it contained. Even when trapped in a Space Artifact, it would slip out again in no time.

Having no other option and considering the thousand-year foundation of the Great Might Dragon Gate, Long Yi took the opportunity to have Wu Zheng send the little chick to Su Yang.

Under the pretense that the little chick was fated to be with Su Yang, they gave it to him. In reality, they really couldn’t afford to keep it any longer, fearing it might completely overturn Dragon Gate Mountain.

Su Yang initially thought the Great Might Dragon Gate was being generous, but as soon as the little creature arrived, it had a fight with Little Turtle.

Both were quite the handful. One hid inside its shell waiting for the right moment to bite, while the other flitted around trying to peck at every opportunity, creating a chaotic mess in Su Yang’s room.

Su Yang went out to discuss some matters with the dean. On his return, he saw his room looking as if a tornado had struck, making him feel exasperated. After gathering the two little ones, he knocked them lightly a couple of times, and they finally settled down.

But their calm didn’t last long. Su Yang had only spent one night at Qinghe Academy before being awakened early the next morning by loud knocking. Upon opening the door, he was met by the disgruntled head instructor, holding two baskets, one with Little Turtle and the other with the little chick.

These two were splayed out, with Little Turtle even stretching its tail and neck, occasionally belching. The chick was even more exaggerated, lying there with its belly round like a ball, making people wonder if its stomach might burst.

Su Yang didn’t know what had happened. He wasn’t even aware of when the two had sneaked out. Seeing the instructor’s angry expression, he had a bad feeling: could they have fought in the instructor’s room?

Before he could speak, the head instructor exclaimed, ”Su Yang, can’t you keep these two under control? They almost demolished our Qinghe Academy’s Alchemy Room, and they’ve eaten more than half of our treasured Spiritual Medicine!”

The instructor’s face turned green. The Elixirs inside were genuine celestial medicines, invaluable treasures, and these two had almost devoured them overnight.

”What!?” Su Yang’s eyes almost popped out as he looked at the two creatures, finally understanding why they were unable to move—they were stuffed to the brim.

”Not only did they eat, but they also caused havoc. The Alchemy Room is a complete mess!” The instructor’s lips quivered as he continued, ”When I got there this morning, I saw two holes in the door but didn’t know what happened. Inside, the Pill Furnace was overturned—are they bandits?”

”No way!” Su Yang said in shock, ”Isn’t the Alchemy Room protected by an Array?”

”How should I know!” the instructor said angrily, ”When I arrived, the Array was still intact, with no changes. Who knows how those two snuck in!”

Su Yang was speechless; he couldn’t believe these two could cause so much trouble.

It took a lot of persuading to calm the instructor down. Of course, considering they were Divine Beasts, he spared them. Otherwise, they might have ended up in a stew.

On the way to Horizon’s End, Su Yang kept both creatures with him. First, because Qinghe Academy didn’t want them, and second, because he didn’t dare let them out of sight, fearing what trouble they might cause.

By noon, Su Yang and his group reached a small town near Horizon’s End.

They had already scouted the place, and people from Qinghe Academy had arranged a secluded villa for them to stay, without any nearby residents, ensuring peace and quiet.

The group rested and had lunch, preparing to take action later in the evening.

During the meal, Su Yang brought some dishes to his room and released the two little ones.

By now, they had mostly recovered, likely having digested a lot of the Elixir, and as soon as they were on the table, they rushed towards the plates.

Su Yang swiftly held one with each hand, pinning them down.

The two struggled but couldn’t overpower Su Yang. In fact, it wasn’t that they weren’t strong; they were just well-behaved around Su Yang.

Unable to break free, they turned their heads, looking at Su Yang with big, shiny black eyes, seemingly asking why they couldn’t eat.

”You two behave!” Su Yang placed them in front of him and released them. The little chick immediately tried to dash away, but Su Yang caught it again.

”Stay here!” Su Yang scolded, ”No running around!”

The little chick didn’t seem to understand but stood there, blinking innocently at Su Yang, looking completely harmless.

If Su Yang didn’t know what they had done, he might have been charmed by their cuteness. But now, seeing them like this, he saw only little devils.

”Did you two sneak into the Elixir Chamber last night and eat the Elixir?” Su Yang asked fiercely.

The two little ones exchanged confused glances before the chick suddenly placed a wing on Little Turtle’s back.

Su Yang was exasperated. ”Stay put! What do you mean pointing at it? Oh, it led you there? You’re kidding, right? Before you came, Little Turtle was well-behaved and never ran around. On your first day, you got it to stay out all night and sneak around—you might as well fly up and join the sun!”

The little chick tilted its head, dazed for a moment, then flapped its wings and lifted off a bit, as if to say it really could fly up and touch the sun.

Su Yang chuckled in exasperation and tapped the chick on the head, ”Behave. No more messing around!”

The little chick looked at Su Yang with pitiful, sad eyes, pleading for sympathy.
