Abalone Pearl. Familiar faces made things easier.
The same went for familiar turtles.
The Sword Shrimp and electric eel guards all around made way.
As a mutant Black Tortoise, Wu Cangshou was naturally extraordinary. Though his cultivation was not high, a turtle demon like him still held no lowly position within the Turtle Clan. He was not as exaggerated as Old Toad—one frog below, ten thousand frogs above—but he was more than qualified to sun his back alongside the Turtle King.
Wu Cangshou paddled his limbs and landed steadily back on the lawn, whispering to the Turtle King in the center.
A moment later.
The Turtle King's eyes opened halfway.
Long Binglin descended at just the right moment and dropped to one knee.
"Long Binglin, grandson of Long Yuanjing of the Dragon Man Tribe, pays respects to the Turtle Great King!"
"Long E Ying, granddaughter of Long Chen, First Elder of the Dragon Man Tribe, pays respects to the Turtle Great King!"
"So the First Elder's name was Long Chen..."
It was Liang Qu's first time learning the First Elder's name. Previously, he had only called him the First Elder. Following behind the two, he bowed to the Turtle King, who was as large as a hill.
"Liang Qu of Pingyang Prefecture, Da Shun, husband of Long E Ying, currently serving under Lord Su."
"Su Guishan." The Turtle King spoke one word at a time, his voice exceedingly slow. Someone impatient might have been worried to death, yet no one dared hurry him. "Guishan has not come by in some time. Is he well?"
"Lord Su has had no major troubles. It is only that the Ghost Mother Sect has been restless lately, and he has been running back and forth between the North Bank and South Bank quite often."
