Haitang shook her head helplessly at Huoqiu's concern, saying that she was not some weak woman who couldn't even kill a chicken, so there was no need to worry so much. Hearing this, Huoqiu nodded.
"I'm also worried that the turtle tribe might do something sneaky. After all, they're all from the same lineage as those insidious turtle beastmen." In Huo Qiu's mind, whether they were turtle tribes on land or turtle tribes that stayed in the ocean, they were all from the same lineage, and their insidiousness might be ingrained in their bones.
Hearing Huo Qiu's words, Hai Tang didn't say much. Were the Turtle Tribe people insidious? Yes, they were insidious, but it wasn't necessarily true that they were completely wrong. Because under certain circumstances, the land beastmen had indeed wronged the Turtle Tribe, and it was reasonable for the Turtle Tribe to retaliate.
"Just be careful this time." Haitang thought more deeply than Huoqiu. Dongfang Long had just seen Dongfang Yu off when these people came looking for her. Moreover, the heavy rain last night probably trapped Dongfang Long.
Thinking about the journey Dongfang Long had taken, Haitang guessed that he would probably arrive tomorrow morning. Under such circumstances, she couldn't help but feel a little helpless. The people of the Turtle Tribe wanted to negotiate with her when Dongfang Long wasn't by her side, probably because they thought that Dongfang Long was their reliance.
However, Haitang wanted to tell those people that no matter what, Haitang's reliance was never on others. Haitang relied on herself, not those people. So, under these circumstances, what Haitang needed to do was to go and meet the people of the Turtle Tribe.
When Haitang and Huoqiu arrived at the island, they discovered that it was not an island, but a giant tortoise shell. The shell was as big as a small basketball court, which stunned Haitang.
"Where did this tortoise shell come from?" Huo Qiu asked in astonishment as he looked at Hai Tang. How long had it lived? Upon hearing this, Hai Tang looked down.
"It should be ten thousand years, maybe even longer." Haitang wasn't surprised. She could tell from the tone of the previous turtle tribe people that there were people in the turtle tribe who lived to such an old age.
Haitang recalled a saying from modern times: turtles have a very, very long lifespan. To her surprise, she actually saw the remains of a turtle that had lived for so long.
Soon, Haitang glanced at Huoqiu, and after exchanging a look with him, the two of them immediately landed on the tortoise shell. The tortoise tribe beastmen also appeared not far away.
"This is our ancestor, who has lived for ten thousand years." He said, looking at Haitang. "Ten thousand years ago, when it was still the world of humans, our ancestor, carrying those memories, told us beastmen. He passed on wisdom. Haitang... do you know about humans?"
Haitang was surprised that the people of the turtle tribe would tell her these things. "I know that humans were the masters of this world in the beginning, controlling everything in this world and destroying everything in this world," Haitang said.
When Huo Qiu heard this, he blinked. He couldn't understand what Hai Tang was saying to the beastmen of the Turtle Tribe. So he could only look to both sides.
"You know, and you should also understand that what the Turtle Clan did today was also forced upon you. What difference is there between you and the humans of the past? You brought about your own destruction..." The Turtle Clan Chief said, looking at the crabapple blossoms.
Upon hearing this, Haitang looked at the turtle chieftain and said, "What are you trying to tell me? Are you saying that this isn't the turtle tribe's fault, but the fault of us land beastmen? I have never said it was your fault, but even so, I want to protect my tribe."
Although Haitang didn't know what the other party was thinking, she still coldly said that she wanted to protect her tribe and make the Tiger Tribe better, and that the Turtle Tribe was now the enemy.
Upon hearing this, the Turtle Clan Chief looked at Haitang and said, "Come down with me for a moment." Haitang looked at the Turtle Clan Chief, while Huoqiu, who was standing nearby, also said, "You can't go down."
"No way." Huo Qiu immediately said upon hearing this, "Who knows what you're up to? I don't trust Haitang to go down with you." How could he possibly trust Haitang to go down with these people?
Upon hearing this, the orcs of the tortoise tribe looked at Huo Qiu with fierce eyes, and Huo Qiu was similar; his eyes turned red and he immediately transformed into a beast to look at the other party.
Haitang reached out and stopped Huoqiu, saying, "Clan Chief Huoqiu, you'll be fine. I can protect myself, so don't worry..." Haitang said as she looked at Huoqiu.
Upon hearing this, Huo Qiu glanced at Haitang and couldn't help but frown. "But what will you do if these people attack you when you go down alone?"
"Trust me," Haitang said, looking at Huoqiu. "When have I ever been reckless? I'm not a reckless person." Haitang said, looking at Huoqiu, that she had never been a reckless person.
Upon hearing this, Huo Qiu glanced at the crabapple tree, lost in thought as he looked at it. He then addressed the students, saying, "Alright, just as you said." Under these circumstances, Huo Qiu nodded.
Haitang looked at the orcs of the turtle tribe, and when she looked at the turtle chieftain, she asked, "What do you want me to see?" At that moment, the orcs of the turtle tribe looked at Haitang.
The turtle chief led Haitang to a nearby place. Haitang saw that the turtle shell was useful and could be removed. Haitang looked at the cracked area, watched the turtle chief go down, and then went down herself.
