Don't Provoke the Turtle

"Wife!"

"Wife!"

Su He, with his thick-skinned face, laughed heartily as he called out and ran.

Su Huanian's Fairy Sword suddenly flew out of her body, slashing towards that detestable Dragon Turtle. Su He vanished in a flash and escaped. Though the turtle had already fled, it still cheekily transmitted its voice: "My lady~"

Su Huanian's face was icy cold. The Fairy Sword she had swung fell into the lake, creating towering waves that crashed down, churning the waters. She sheathed her sword and stood still for a long while before letting out a snort of laughter.

In an instant, spring blossomed all around.

In the lake, a mermaid swam away with a wronged expression, its newly built stone dwelling smashed to pieces by the lady's sword-induced waves, yet it dared not speak or show anger... and still had to clap and cheer.

If the lady could give birth to a little Dragon Turtle, she was truly divine!

Su He fled, circled around, but couldn't find the little one. Extending his Divine Sense, he saw in the garden behind, several mermaids were picking up firewood with troubled faces. In the courtyard, a large bronze cauldron was set up over a fire, with boiling soup inside.

The little one was throwing eggshells into the bronze cauldron piece by piece, where a jade amulet shaped like a shrimp, gifted by a toad, was rolling in the boiling water without sinking.

Was she cooking her own eggshells?

Su He leaped over and heard the little one muttering non-stop: "Hairy shrimp, climbing shrimp, big white shrimp, river shrimp with red tails, the little one isn't picky at all!"

This was the Dragon Turtle's instinct telling her to eat the eggshells. But the taste of eggshells was indescribable, and now with the toad's jade shrimp, she was trying to make it delicious.

The little one's taste was up to her; not all turtles loved shrimp the most. Small fish, lean meat, snails... each had their own preference.

"Divine!" The mermaids bowed to Su He from afar.

Su He waved his claw: "Call me Master!"

The word 'divine' always poked at Su He's heart, making him feel as if he were being cursed.

"Master!" The mermaids bowed respectfully. In their eyes, the Dragon Turtle was divine, and changing the title was just a matter of words, naturally to be followed.
