Just as Chu Liang was about to have a conversation with Cui Guanshi, an old man with a slow gait walked into the courtyard.

He was wearing a coarse robe, hunching his back heavily. He had a head full of gray beard and sparse hair, looking very old. He walked slowly, so slow that it made people anxious, but his steps were stable and powerful, not like the unsteady steps of an elderly person.

This old man, who looked like a beggar, shouldn't have appeared in the backyard of the Li family's mansion. It was unknown how he managed to walk in step by step.

If the people in the mansion saw him, they would probably find it strange, but there was only one fish in the courtyard.

Liu Xiaoyu looked at the strange old man, blinked her eyes, and asked, "Bald old man, are you here to bring me food?"

"Hehehe..." The old man let out a laugh, then looked up, "Yes, little girl, I can't walk anymore. Can you help me?"

Liu Xiaoyu, without suspecting anything, walked over and held the old man's elbow.

Little did she know, the old man extended his other hand and grabbed Liu Xiaoyu's arm, sinisterly smiling, "I finally caught you."

"Huh?" Liu Xiaoyu looked at him in confusion. She tried to pull him, but he didn't move. She asked, "Bald old man, what are you trying to do?"

"Little girl, do you know who I am?"

The old man grinned, and his old face suddenly swelled and elongated, his neck protruding more than a foot, transforming into an ugly and smooth turtle head with sharp fangs!

It was the head of a turtle!

Liu Xiaoyu was momentarily stunned, then recognized its true identity, "You're the evil turtle spirit!"

"Hehehe..." The old turtle laughed strangely, "You two little carps ate the precious treasures I painstakingly nurtured for many years. You think you can just run away like this? If I eat you, my Amber Zhu Ti and Flying Fish Spirit will not be lost..."

As it spoke, it opened its mouth wide, ready to swallow Liu Xiaoyu in one bite!

"Ah..." Liu Xiaoyu screamed. Although she had the Flying Fish Spirit in her, she couldn't break free from its tight grip.

At the critical moment, a voice said, "Stop!"

A green light flew over and enveloped Liu Xiaoyu, instantly turning her into a big dumpling. This was the second time the green leaf artifact had wrapped around the little girl, but this time it saved her life.

Bang-

Crunch crunch-

The old turtle bit onto the green leaf artifact, grinding its teeth and making a piercing clang.

After grinding its teeth for a while and realizing it had no effect, it angrily lifted its turtle head and glared at the person who had just arrived.

It was Chu Liang, who had hurried back after sensing the anger of the Slashing Crimson Sword.

The monster in front of him was the source of the Slashing Crimson Sword's anger. This old turtle was filled with resentment and deep guilt!

"Kid... Although you are a cultivator, this little girl is also a monster. It's none of your business between us monsters, right?" The old turtle said with a sinister tone.

"She's just an innocent little fish, and this is the land of my human race. If you want to commit a crime here, I naturally can't agree." Chu Liang replied decisively.

"Innocent?" The old turtle's voice suddenly became sharp, "You say she's innocent?"

"Do you know how much effort I put into nurturing the Amber Zhu Ti for over a hundred years underwater in the Qin Nan River? How much blood of living beings I used to nourish it and make it mature ahead of time?"

"I planned to eat the bigger one when its medicinal properties reached 500 years, and then spend some time nurturing the smaller one. After eating both, I would have a thousand years of cultivation and directly achieve adulthood!"

The old turtle was furious, and Chu Liang was secretly shocked.

No wonder it was filled with resentment and could provoke the anger of the Slashing Crimson Sword. By using the blood of living beings to ripen the Amber Zhu Ti, it had killed countless innocent creatures. The frequent cases of drowning in the Qin Nan River in recent years were probably related to it.

It seemed that today, this old turtle must not be allowed to escape.

"But on the day before I was ready to harvest, these two fish somehow found their way into the cave and ate my Amber Zhu Ti clean!"

"After I discovered it, I wanted to eat them in return, but they escaped. Not only that, one of them even fled to the water mansion that I had long set my sights on."

"The Flying Fish Spirit in that water mansion had also grown under my watch for hundreds of years, and it was finally time for it to merge. But she directly merged with it!"

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

"I am the Turtle Spirit. It took me several days to walk from the water to here. Do you know that feeling? Hundreds of years, I dreamt of relying on that Flying Fish Spirit to increase my speed and become a monster that can walk normally."

"Ah..."

Now that it mentioned it, the old turtle was still furious. This mockery had truly touched its sore spot. If it hadn't been so slow on land, it wouldn't have craved that Flying Fish Spirit so much.

In a fit of rage, it twisted its body and transformed completely!

Bang.

With a loud explosion, a giant turtle several zhang tall appeared in the courtyard, almost filling up the entire space!

Even powerful demons rarely revealed their true form in the territory of the human race, because it would expose their demonic aura, and cultivators within a dozen miles would be able to sense it.

But now it didn't care about all that. It just wanted to kill the cultivator in front of it first, and then eat the dumpling made of fish meat!

"Roar-"

The giant turtle roared, raised its long neck, and emitted a black light from its mouth!

Seeing this, Chu Liang no longer hesitated and summoned the Slashing Crimson Sword from the White Tower space. He wielded it, filled with anger.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh-

The Slashing Crimson Sword rose into the air, leaving behind residual sword shadows, forming two runes that flew out with the sword energy.

The Ice-Fire Dual Rune Sword!

Although the Dual Rune Sword was just a basic technique in rune swordsmanship, when unleashed by the Slashing Crimson Sword, it could transform into the Thousand Rune Sword. Although the Ice-Fire Dual Rune Sword was not high-level, its power had been amplified a hundredfold.

Boom rumble rumble-

As soon as the sword was drawn, thunder roared, and a frosty white dragon and a blazing fire dragon twirled and converged into two tornado pillars of different colors. The dragons roared, startling the surroundings!

The head of the old turtle spewed out a black light, colliding with the sword energy tornado. In an instant, it was annihilated. The next moment, the sword energy tornado continued to rush towards the giant turtle.

Feeling that things were not going well, the giant turtle retracted its head and limbs, and a loud thud echoed as its shell fell, sealing itself inside.

Retracting its head into its shell!

This turtle shell was its reliance that no one had ever been able to break through despite its dominance in the Qin Nan River for so many years.

No one had ever been able to breach its defense!

But today, it happened to encounter Chu Liang's super-amplified Ice-Fire Dual Rune Sword.

Sizzle-

The sword energy tornado struck the turtle shell, and the frosty dragon and the fiery dragon whirled and flipped. The two powerful forces rushed in, as if it were divine punishment!

Ice and fire alternated, breaking through infinite defenses.

Boom-

However, after a brief stalemate, the sword energy tornado penetrated the turtle shell's defense and directly met the hidden turtle head.

Ice!

Fire!

Infinite explosions!

No turtle head in the world could withstand such devastation. In an instant, it was stripped of its armor, and its pitch-black blood gushed out. Then, in the blink of an eye, it was frozen by the frost and evaporated by the flames, leaving only a dried-up skeleton that collapsed softly.

The turtle head was refined by ice and fire.

The battle ended in an instant.

Only emptiness remained.
