834: Chapter 223: The Difference of Opening Heaven Three-fold 834: Chapter 223: The Difference of Opening Heaven Three-fold “What does Thai Zu wish to know?” Su He asked.
Such a being as Thai Zu would naturally want to know major events of heaven and earth, the secrets of ancient and modern times.
However, Su He didn’t know much either!
Was the focus of this trip to the Ancient Times…
love?
He certainly couldn’t talk to the old ancestor about the matters of love, especially not in front of Su Huanian.
But other matters—like the structure and layout of the Yuan Sovereign Clan, he didn’t understand much either, and he even didn’t know how to get to the heartland of the Yuan Sovereign Clan.
He was familiar with the earlier routes, but in the later stages, he was grabbed and blinked through space to arrive directly.
Maybe Su Huanian understood more about the Yuan Sovereign Clan?
Su He turned his head towards Su Huanian, and as if through telepathy, seeing the look in Su He’s eyes, she knew what he was thinking.
Su Huanian shook her head slightly, “I only remember you.”
Tan Tai had only left her memories of Su He.
Su He’s entire Turtle Shell went soft.
Su Huanian was not one to speak sweet nothings; she only spoke the truth, yet it was precisely this sort of truth that was the most lethal.
Thai Zu burst out laughing, looking down at Su He, “I don’t need news of the Yuan Sovereign Clan, nor the intelligence on the Ancient Times.
Little fellow, tell me about you and Baiyin!”
???
Su He was full of question marks.
Thai Zu was silent for a moment, his tone carrying a hint of vicissitude, “Whether it be the Yuan Sovereign Clan or the Ancient Times, they have all passed and cannot stir up any waves.
This old fellow just wants to figure out whether our own Little White Turtle is alive or dead, and where she is now.”
Nothing could compare to one’s own family.
When people grow old, they only wish for the safety of their descendants, and it’s no different for an Old Turtle.
“She should be alive,” Su He thought for a moment and said earnestly.
As he spoke, an image unfolded before him, showing Baiyin’s appearance in a dissolve chamber of the White Tiger Ruin.
“Thai Zu, I always suspected this fellow is White Spirit.
What do you think?”
This was a retrospective from Su He’s memory.
In the image, Baiyin sat atop the Netherworld White Tiger, touching the Sealed Emperor’s Palace’s Stepping Sky Six-fold seal into a bubble.
Then…
mentioning the source, the war they almost lost, it repeated bit by bit.
Although Baiyin had even mentioned the origins of the Mystery Yellow Cave Sky and it sounded like it really was a war from the Ancient Times, Su He inexplicably felt that she was White Spirit.
It was an indescribable feeling.
Thai Zu took in the entire retrospective without missing a thing, closed his eyes and remained silent for a long while.
Su He held his breath in concentration, not daring to make the slightest disturbance.
Su Huanian was as calm as always, and even Ya Ya quieted down, blinking her big eyes at the static frames.
It wasn’t until Thai Zu suddenly let out a laugh.
His Dragon whiskers curled, carrying Ya Ya on top, with the tip of the Dragon whiskers touching the retrospective image before Su He.
The image shook and revealed another scene.
It was something Su He had never seen before, still the woman who claimed to be Baiyin, with her hands on her hips and laughing uproariously at the sky, “Haha!
Old Turtle, I knew that Su He couldn’t be relied upon!
He must have gone running to you to tattle!”
She was proud, acting as though she couldn’t divine Su He’s actions through prophecy, but she could entirely deduce his actions through wit alone.
Thai Zu smiled, his gaze shifting towards Su He.
Su He even saw a teasing look in his eyes.
This scene was not profound at all; Su He could tell.
This wasn’t some deep and unfathomable magic skill; it was just teasing for being so naïve.
This was during the time in the White Tiger Ruin when Baiyin (White Spirit) appeared and spoke to Su He, while also leaving an image for Thai Zu.
She had just hidden this image away, and Su He did not realize it.
It was only when Su He reminisced in front of Thai Zu that the hidden image was played back along with it; Thai Zu merely showed the hidden image.
Thinking about the woman who had been so serious with him while flaunting in front of him unnoticed, Su He felt a pang of frustration in his chest.
As if anticipating Su He’s reaction, the woman in the image laughed heartily.
After laughing, she raised her head to look at something outside the image, as if she were staring straight at Thai Zu, “Hey!
Old Turtle!”
Her tone was impolite, “We have called you ancestor for thirty thousand years!
Now you know, my origins are even grander, older than yours?
So…
how about you call me ‘ancestor’ as well?”
Su He: “…”
This was blatant disrespect!
Stone-cold proof, she was White Spirit!
Such a nuisance!
Thinking this, he saw Thai Zu looking at him with an almost smirking expression.
Su He was instantly filled with question marks.
No!
This was White Spirit’s blatant disrespect; what did it have to do with Su He?
Why was Thai Zu looking at him like that?!
Thai Zu glanced at him and snorted twice.
His gaze fell back on the retrospective image.
In the image, White Spirit spoke, sticking out her tongue at Su He, with a mischievous look, “All right, I admit it, it’s me!
Old Turtle, take a whip to that Little Turtle!
You’ve smoothed his path, endowed him with The Great Tao, yet it takes him decades to open just one level of heaven.
If he keeps dawdling like this, our Turtle Shell will rot!”
She sighed resentfully, as if she was about to cry, then suddenly raised her head again, “Hey, is my Little Thunder Beast around?”
While she inquired, she already seemed to confirm Ya Ya was there, grinning, “How about that, I’m impressive, right!
I said I’d make you a Dragon Turtle, and so you became.
I said you should call me mother, and you must call me that!”
Do not take stepmother lightly!
With these words, her pride grew.
Proud as she was, the image stopped; having played to its end, it naturally dispersed.
The scene fell silent for a moment, and even Ya Ya stopped her mischief, dangling from Thai Zu’s Dragon whiskers, blinking her big eyes in turns at Su Huanian and Su He.
She wasn’t foolish; she knew her origins to some extent.
Su He and Su Huanian had never avoided this topic around her.
