716: Chapter 185: White Tiger Ruin_1 716: Chapter 185: White Tiger Ruin_1 Emperor Luan’s Giant Ape stood in midair, surrounded from three directions with no retreat possible.

But Emperor Luan was not concerned about this; instead, he turned his gaze towards Su He, his eyes showing a mix of solemnity and a hint of melancholy.

How many times had this Little Dragon Turtle foiled his plans?

Once or twice could be luck, but three or four times might be a matter of fate.

Any more than that, and it was a question of true ability.

Whether it was ghost creatures finding their way to the Grand Temple within The Sealed Emperor’s Palace, or gathering Buddha’s Outer Garment in the Feng Zhong, or this time breaking open the prison, it wasn’t something that could be simply explained away as a fluke of luck.

Learn from the setback and grow wiser; repeatedly facing setbacks, one should start treating this Turtle as a real opponent.

This had nothing to do with Tao Cultivation.

Even if it were a mere mortal who managed to disrupt his schemes this many times, that mortal should be considered an opponent of equal level!

Emperor Luan looked at Su He and slightly smiled, “I retract the hubris of our first meeting, let us reintroduce ourselves, Friend Su He.”

Emperor Luan’s voice was steady, “My name is Yao!

The Princely Heir of the Sealed Emperor’s Hou Huanian, who, 117,000 years ago, overturned the old mountains of the Seal Emperor, hence my imperial title ‘Luan’!”

The surrounding Greater Powers fell silent all at once.

The way Emperor Luan addressed Su He changed, from Young Friend to Friend, indicating that the upcoming schemes of The Sealed Emperor’s Palace against Young Friend Su He would likely be personally orchestrated by Emperor Luan.

A friend is someone with whom one can discuss the Tao.

Engaging in combat or confrontation is also a way of discussing the Tao.

Su He narrowed his eyes slightly, sensing genuine seriousness in Emperor Luan’s tone.

This feeling was quite strange.

After locking eyes with Emperor Luan for a long time, Su He’s mouth curved into a slight smile, and he said solemnly, “Dragon Turtle, He!”

There wasn’t much that needed saying about Su He’s introduction, the phrase ‘Dragon Turtle He’ sufficed to represent everything.

Emperor Luan nodded, “Friend, you may take your wife and daughter and leave first.

The battle to come is not one in which you can participate at the moment.

I look forward to truly discussing the Tao with you within ten thousand years!”

Emperor Luan looked at Su He as if admonishing a good friend.

It may have been an illusion, but Emperor Luan always felt that this Dragon Turtle might reap the greatest rewards from this Mystery Yellow Cave Sky.

The Mystery Yellow Cave Sky had only just begun, with twelve years still to go before its end.

There was no reason for this feeling!

An inexplicable premonition; before, Su He would shamelessly rush into the battlefield of the Greater Powers, zigzagging left and right.

Without the protection of the Dragon Turtle Tribe, the Phoenix Clan, and Ji Feixue, he would have perished ten times over by now.

But there would come a day when this Turtle would stand proudly before him.

Perhaps the current Mystery Yellow Cave Sky would be the true beginning?

Su He smiled, nodded, and said, “Farewell.”

Emperor Luan was right; such battles were not meant for him to participate in, and he shouldn’t even be spectating unless Buddha and Thai Zu, using a complete set of hexagrams, lend him a boost of power again.

Su He stepped back and turned to look towards the White Tiger Ruin in front of him.

Named a ruin, it was in reality a space rift that led to the true ruins; currently, looking through that rift, you could see the ruins, with various lights flickering as Greater Powers battled within.

The White Tiger Ruin must be the White Tiger bones left for him by Baiyin, right?

Something left by his wife for him, and others dare to covet it?

Su He was certain that, given that girl’s temperament, those who ventured into the White Tiger Ruin wouldn’t even get a single hair!

They might even end up counting the money for their own sale.

Su Huanian stood beside Su He, glancing at the White Tiger Ruin with a slight smile.

Although she had no memories from afterward, she clearly remembered Baiyin leading Su He to steal tiger blood and wrest tiger bones during the Ancient Times.

She knew what the White Tiger Ruin entailed without even thinking.

She shook her head lightly, “My lord, I won’t go to the White Tiger Ruin.”

She remembered Ji Feixue’s request; she still needed to retrieve the Dragon Scales the Dragon Clan left behind at the San Yuan Palace.

Su He pondered for a moment, then nodded, “Alright!

Don’t go far, and message me via Flying Sword if anything happens!”

Su Huanian nodded and turned to look at Ya Ya, who was stubbornly sticking by Ji Feixue’s side, and said with a light laugh, “Will you go with your mother, or stay with Dad?”

Ya Ya blinked.

The family had just come together, only to part ways again?

Ji Feixue, on the other hand, grabbed Ya Ya’s hand and laughed, “My little princess isn’t going anywhere; she’s staying by my side!”

She had sent Ya Ya away earlier only because she wasn’t sure what trump cards The Sealed Emperor’s Palace held, fearing she couldn’t protect the child if anything went wrong, potentially dooming the family.

Now, with Emperor Luan’s cards revealed, it was best for Ya Ya to remain by her side.

This place, Baiyun Palace, was Baiyin’s Travelling Palace.

White Spirit was the mischievous one, and her past self, Baiyin, was probably no less of a handful, not the type to spare any oil.

The Bai Ze Building held ample memories of Baiyin’s absurdities.

With Ya Ya in the Baiyun Palace, who knew what special circumstances she might encounter?

It was safer to keep her close.

Ya Ya blinked again, looking at her parents and then at her aunt.

Huh?

Am I suddenly in high demand?

Su Huanian smiled faintly, “Alright!” She looked at Ya Ya, “No mischief!”

She knew Ya Ya’s temperament all too well; even though she had settled down over the past thirty years, the child was undoubtedly still a handful.

After exchanging a glance with Su He, she turned and flew away on her sword, heading west.

The San Yuan Palace was extremely far; they needed to exit Baiyun Palace and cut southwest through the Golden Wing Mansion.

Cloud Mist swirled, hiding Su Huanian’s figure.

Su He turned to watch the tense crowd, smiling as he retreated toward the direction of the White Tiger Ruin, while saying in a stern voice, “Green Flower, stay here!”

The Toad emerged from his forehead, angrily stomping on him.

He was calling it Green Flower in front of everyone again, might as well boil the Dragon Turtle for soup!

It grunted and leaped onto Phoenix Chao Fei’s back, causing Phoenix Chao Fei to grimace in distaste.

Just as she was about to flick the Toad off, she suddenly paused.
