Batian Martial Soul

Chapter 15091 Giant Turtle Blocks the Way

"I have a question: this blacksmith is so skilled, why would he help me? I don't even know him, so there's no reason for him to help me."

Ling Xiao asked.

The Evil Insect King smiled and said, "Listen to me, go and see for yourself. He will definitely help you. You won't even need to plead with him. You may think you don't know him, but he knows you!"

"Alright, since you put it that way, I'll believe you. Whether he helps me or not, I'm going anyway. The stronger the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword is, the stronger my trump card will be."

Now that the Demon Lord's treasure has been opened, there are fewer people vying for this sword anymore. However, it is still the Demon Lord's former sword, and its power remains terrifying.

For Ling Xiao, this was his trump card, his ultimate weapon.

"Then you should go. I should rest too. Although I didn't fight this morning, I still used up a lot of energy controlling those insects. Take care of yourself! I've taught you everything I can. Whether you can make good use of the Evil Insect King's legacy depends on your own ability."

The Evil Insect King yawned and said.

"Then you should rest. Unless there's something special, I naturally won't wake you up."

Ling Xiao laughed.

"It's not special, it's a life-or-death matter. Unless it's a matter of life and death, there's no need to wake me up. I need to rest properly."

The Evil Insect King has not yet achieved his goal, so he does not want this clone to disintegrate and must take good care of it.

"Okay, okay, I'll do as you say!"

Ling Xiao did not intend to easily awaken the Evil Insect King. After all, the Evil Insect King was too strange, and it was hard to say whether it was friend or foe. Although the king had passed on many things to him, its purpose was still unknown.

Besides, his cultivation has improved, and he has quite a few trump cards. It would be really unreasonable for him to still rely on the Evil Insect King.

"You're pretty good, kid. In just a few days, your strength has changed dramatically. Now you can hold your own when you go out, so no one can bully you!"

Xia Ming sighed.

"Even if I can't beat them, I still have you, Sister Xia Ming."

Ling Xiao laughed.

"I can't do it. In this world, the suppression is too great for me, and I can't unleash my full strength. When we come here, we can only unleash about 10% of our strength at most. Only my eldest sister is really strong. She can crush everyone in the Chaotic Martial World with 10% of her strength. I am far inferior to her."

Xia Ming said self-deprecatingly, "In the end, it's because I'm too playful. We three younger sisters are too young to work as hard as our older sister. Actually, we are all more talented than her, but in the end, it was our older sister who was stronger. You should understand that talent is one thing, but if you don't work hard, even the best talent will go to waste."

"I know, let's go out now!"

Ling Xiao called out to Little Pink and Caterpillar, and the two little guys immediately hid inside his clothes and fell fast asleep.

During this time, Xiao Fen was always by his side protecting him, keeping an eye on the evil insect king. If the evil insect king made any unusual moves, Xiao Fen would definitely take action.

The intense concentration left Xiao Fen exhausted; she definitely needs a good rest.

As for the caterpillar, that guy just loves to sleep.

Upon leaving the Evil Insect Palace, Ling Xiao discovered that the road ahead was different from before. It was not the road leading to Hong Meng's residence, but a long, blood-red river.

In the Red River, there are eerie human faces, ferocious and terrifying.

The sound of the flowing river was more like countless eerie whispers underwater.

Little Pink and the Caterpillar were sleeping very comfortably, and Xia Ming was also resting. Ling Xiao was quite nervous, wondering if something might suddenly emerge from the red river.

I don't know if my prediction was too accurate, but after walking about a mile, an island actually emerged from the river.

No, that's not right, it's not an island.

That creature was a giant tortoise, entirely blood red, even its shell was blood red.

The turtle's shell was covered with many strange corals, all blood red, which looked like small mountains.

The blood turtle emerged from the water and blocked Ling Xiao's path.

Ling Xiao's only way forward is to cross this river, but now he's in trouble.

Little Pink, who was fast asleep, suddenly opened her eyes, poked her head out from inside Ling Xiao's clothes, and looked at the Blood Turtle with some displeasure.

That's true. It's really unpleasant to be woken up suddenly when someone is sleeping soundly.

Little Pink was about to rush out and fight that blood turtle.

She hates it when people disturb her sleep, especially when she's tired.

"No, Little Pink, let's find out what this old turtle wants first. Maybe it's not blocking the way on purpose. It might just be sunbathing and accidentally blocked us."

Ling Xiao could sense that the old tortoise was very strong, so he didn't want to make enemies with such a powerful figure. It was true that he had become stronger, but there was no need for him to make enemies everywhere.

Little Pink grumbled in dissatisfaction, but didn't disobey Ling Xiao's words and obediently shrank back. However, its hostility towards the old turtle didn't diminish at all. If the old turtle dared to do anything bad, this little guy would definitely rush up and give it a good beating.

"Senior, please make way for everyone. You're out basking in the sun, could you wait until I get there?"

Xiao Chen cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to the old tortoise.

The old tortoise completely ignored Ling Xiao, remaining lying there as if it had no intention of leaving, and even comfortably closed its eyes.

"Oh dear, I have such a bad temper. I'll let it slide because you're my senior. Is it really that hard to just ask you to move aside? I admit I don't want to be your enemy, but you certainly don't want to be mine either. In the end, you'll be the one who suffers!"

Ling Xiao was somewhat unhappy.

He restrained Little Pink's rage, preventing her from attacking the old turtle, but unexpectedly, the old turtle showed no respect whatsoever.

"Little Pink, come out and say hello to the old man."

Ling Xiao released Xiao Fen, who stood on Ling Xiao's head and bared its teeth at the old turtle.

As if sensing something, the old tortoise finally opened its eyes again and then bent down to look at Ling Xiao and Xiao Fen.

Its body was so enormous that Lingxiao looked like a tiny ant in comparison, and Xiaofen looked even smaller.

It looks like a grass seed on the head of a little ant.

"Little thing, it's you! I knew it! Your aura was so familiar. You're a descendant of some old man."

The old tortoise suddenly spoke.

They weren't talking about Ling Xiao, but Xiao Fen. Clearly, the old turtle knew Xiao Fen's father.

Little Pink pouted and hissed at the old turtle. Its fierce appearance was really cute, but it didn't intimidate the turtle at all.

"You know Little Pink's father? I heard her father was once a demon king?"

To ease the somewhat awkward atmosphere, Ling Xiao quickly asked. (End of Chapter)
