The Liu Clan Makes a Great Contribution to the Black Tortoise Race
"Um?"
Hearing Liu Tianming's words, Lu Changzhi looked surprised:
"It actually managed to be rounded off?"
At that moment, his gaze turned towards Black Tortoise.
It was impossible to tell what Black Tortoise was thinking at that moment, but it remained silent.
After about two breaths, Wu Kan finally spoke:
Were you by its side when the Black Tortoise hatched?
Upon hearing this, Liu Tianming thought for a moment and nodded:
"It's some distance, but not too far."
Wu Kan nodded, glanced at Liu Xun, and said:
"I'll take you two back first. We'll observe that there are still unresolved issues within your Liu Clan."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xun's expression shifted slightly, and he quickly replied:
"Good."
At that moment, Black Tortoise led the two back to the Zhu Clan's territory.
Liu Clan.
"That child, Tianming, has really taken a risk. The Beast Race are not Human Race after all. Now that he's gone out on his own initiative, he's probably just fulfilling the Beast Race's wish."
"I've never heard of Black Tortoise egg before, but this matter is probably difficult to clarify, and it could cause more trouble later."
"Liu Xun hasn't sent any other messages back? It's been quite a while."
In the ensuing silence, the elders of the Liu Clan were exchanging glances and paying close attention.
At this moment.
A faint ripple was generated where the Gray Ring Cave was located.
The attention of powerful figures from all sides in the Mystic Yang Realm immediately turned towards the Gray Ring Cave.
The next moment.
Black Tortoise appeared in front, with Liu Tianming and his son behind, right before everyone's eyes.
"The prince of the Liu Clan is indeed there."
The powerful figures of the Mystic Yang Realm were slightly moved, and their evaluation of Liu Zhong rose to a higher level.
This is a blatant betrayal!
Elsewhere, Chen Mingxuan looked at Liu Tianming, his brows slightly furrowed:
"No, that's not it."
"How could even the mighty Black Tortoise Race be fooled by the Liu Clan?"
This is completely different from the Liu Clan imperial prince he mentioned.
Chen Mingxuan was about to speak.
At this moment, Wu Kan's gaze swept over the crowd outside the Liu Clan, and he slowly said:
"The Prince of the Liu Clan has made a great contribution to my Black Tortoise Clan. Disperse and do not cause any more trouble for the Liu Clan."
The voice rang in everyone's ears.
In an instant, the expressions of everyone present changed.
The most unanimous reaction was shock.
"Making a huge contribution, so does that mean the Black Tortoise egg theory is true?"
"Does this mean the Black Tortoise Race is going to side with the Liu Clan?"
"No way, can the Liu Clan really produce a Black Tortoise egg that Atavism?"
The shock was followed by different reactions from all sides.
"It seems this trip was a waste of time." A powerful member of the Huang Clan shook his head regretfully.
"It's really unfair to expend so much effort only to end up empty-handed."
"That's fine then," the person next to him laughed.
"Compared to those two families, we're doing quite well. The Zhu Clan even invited their ancestral emperor, and they were almost inside, just a little short. And that Gray Ring Cave wasted a lot of effort."
"Although the Shen Clan hasn't done anything, judging from their current posture, it's unlikely they'll get their Emperor Artifact and other personal belongings back."
Upon hearing this, the person who had spoken earlier showed a hint of relief in their expression.
"That's true."
Looking around, the expressions of the Shen Clan's experts were indeed the worst among the three groups.
Far away.
Yue Peng let out a long sigh:
"The Liu Clan's trump card is truly not to be underestimated; it's a pity."
It was initially thought that even if the Liu Clan wasn't severely damaged this time, they would still suffer a great loss of vitality.
In the end, they actually reached a higher level.
"Was Liu Zhong truly betraying the Liu Clan with good intentions?" A powerful member of the Yue Clan frowned.
"Could that also be part of the Liu Clan's scheme?"
Elsewhere, Wu Fa looked at Liu Tianming, his brows furrowed slightly. After a long while, he murmured:
"Strangeness."
Beside him, Wu Xiao, the chieftain of the Wu Clan, turned to look:
"Why is that strange?"
Wu Fa thought for a moment and said:
"This person's fate is extraordinary, but compared to that of the Emperor Dao, it's quite obvious."
After a pause, Wu Fa guessed:
"Perhaps the Thousand-Year Mystery has nothing to do with this imperial prince."
Upon hearing this, Wu Xiao seemed to realize something and turned to look at Chen Mingxuan:
"Could it be that the key to this Thousand-Year Mystery lies within the Five Symbols Sect he spoke of?"
While everyone was processing Black Tortoise's words, Liu Xun had already returned to the Liu Clan with Black Tortoise.
At this moment, all the Liu Clan members present breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Finally, we're safe!"
Although the elders of the Liu Clan had concerns in their hearts, they ultimately did not show them.
Given the current situation, this is already the best possible outcome.
As for how to deal with the Black Tortoise cub, there's no need to worry too much.
"Senior, rest assured, although the Black Tortoise cub's whereabouts are currently unknown, our Liu Clan will do our utmost to find it."
Upon learning what Liu Tianming had said to Black Tortoise, Liu Xun immediately expressed his opinion.
Wu Kan nodded:
"You only need to provide enough information."
After counting, Wu Kan glanced at Xuan Ze, who then spoke up:
"Our Black Tortoise Race has always believed in repaying even the smallest kindness tenfold. Rest assured, even if we find our descendants, we will never forget the contributions made by your Liu Clan."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xun quickly replied:
"Our entire Liu Clan will spare no effort in the search for the sacred beast!"
That's thoughtful of you.
Wu Kan nodded slightly, then asked Liu Tianming for clarification.
"I wonder where that Black Tortoise egg came from?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Tianming immediately said:
"Replying to Senior, it was actually a matter of chance. Not long ago, my Liu Clan received news about the Emperor's Tomb, and the Black Tortoise Egg was found within the Emperor's Tomb."
"The Emperor's Tomb, what is the name of the tomb's occupant?" Wu Kan asked.
Chen Tiancheng.
"Chen Tiancheng." Wu Kan glanced at Xuan Ze, who nodded.
"I have some recollection of it."
"However, no eggs were stolen back then," Xuan Ze transmitted his voice.
"It must be for some other reason. Chen Tiancheng sought the power of the four Sacred Beast Race to empower himself, so he must have some unique abilities. Perhaps..." Wu Kan didn't finish his sentence.
"You mean, that clansman back then had abilities like Long Yang?" Xuan Ze was slightly surprised.
"There should be a difference. The problem likely lies with Chen Tiancheng, but unfortunately, he has already perished, and there's no way to verify it now, so let's not dwell on that for now."
After Wu Kan finished speaking, he continued to ask Liu Tianming questions.
The matter of the Black Tortoise descendant Atavism form is of utmost importance and cannot be delayed in the slightest.
Therefore, Liu Tianming was asked a wide variety of detailed questions in a short period of time.
If it weren't for intentional control, I'm afraid I would have been sweating profusely by now.
One lie is easy to prepare, but a bunch of fabricated lies are by no means easy.
"If things continue like this, I'm afraid we'll inevitably be exposed."
An elder of the Liu Clan sent a worried message:
"We'll try our best to think about it and see if we can provide some supporting details."
Having lived for so many years, they could still tell the difference between the creature and the Black Tortoise based on their experience.
Right now, Black Tortoise is showing too much interest.
The questions asked were numerous and detailed, almost like digging to the bottom of things.
However, the inquiry contained absolutely no hint of questioning or doubt; on the contrary, the tone and wording were quite appropriate.
This is actually a bigger problem.
