Wanbao Lady

When the turtle spirit saw that everyone was looking at it, it was so scared that it broke out in a cold sweat.

I wish I could crawl into my own shell.

But after thinking about it, he felt that this was not a good idea and forced himself to stop shrinking his head.

It looked at the gentle eyes of the empress at the top, and the encouraging eyes of the old and young beside it, and couldn't help but hesitantly said:

"I think, I think adults don't need to belittle themselves."

Shen Tuo stroked his beard and said, "What do you mean?"

The turtle spirit spoke the first time, and was more courageous the second time.

He mustered up his courage and said, "The intelligent creatures who believe in God include not only humans, but also us monsters..."

Seeing Shen Tuo suddenly froze, the turtle spirit continued, "My lord, you once wanted to follow the path of the gods, so you did good deeds for the people along the coast. But the people were ignorant, and seeing that you were a monster, they did not believe in you, and even resisted you."

Seeing everyone's focused expressions, the turtle spirit continued, "For so many years, we, the people of Mo River, have been able to live in peace thanks to your protection. Even when the snake demon came later and you were injured by the snake demon in order to protect us from escaping Mo River, we saw it all."

As he spoke, the turtle spirit actually choked up.

"Although we monsters are not as smart as humans, we also have emotions and know how to be grateful. We have seen your kindness over the years. To us little monsters, you are not only a lord, but also our god!"

At the end, the turtle spirit said passionately: "Since those humans don't accept you as their god, then you can become our god!"

After these words were spoken, Shen Tuo stood there in a daze, unable to speak for a long time.

His mind flashed back to what he had done in the past.

In order to become a god and to be recognized by the imperial court, he did good things for the people living along the coast, but was feared and resisted by them.

They said "Monster go away, don't come over here."

They said "Death to the monsters".

Some of the people he rescued from the water didn't say anything, but they were so scared that they ran away crawling.

Although occasionally there are a few humans who are not afraid of him and want to repay him.

But overall, he was actually sad.

After that, there was no more forcing.

Although he would occasionally help humans in distress, he would do so in silence and never appear in front of humans again.

He does not seek gratitude from humans, but just follows his heart.

Unexpectedly, the flowers planted intentionally did not bloom, but the willows planted unintentionally made shade.

As for the kind-hearted little demon in Mohe River, he thinks he is the lord and has responsibilities, so he will help him if he can.

Generally speaking, it is the attitude of a parent.

I never wanted to gain the faith of these little demons.

But the turtle spirit's words made him feel like he had suddenly realized something, as if he had found a new direction.

"Really? Is that what you think, or..."

The old clam monster seemed a little unable to believe that he held such importance in the hearts of these little monsters.

The turtle spirit said firmly: "It's not just me, everyone thinks so. If you don't believe me, you can ask everyone when you go back."

Seeing that Shen Tuo still seemed a little bit unbelievable, Chong Fan said to him: "How about this, I will let Cheng An go with you, maybe it can help to clear up the fog in your heart."

Luo Cheng'an, who was just visiting to make some familiar faces, raised his head in confusion.

He didn't expect that he would end up eating the melon himself.

But since it was Her Majesty who named it, there must be some hidden meaning behind it.

Therefore, he bowed respectfully to Chongfan and said, "I will obey your majesty's orders!"

So, when they came, there were three monsters.

When they left, there were four monsters.

After watching them leave, Bayan's eyes turned and he flew to Chongfan and said, "My queen, Luo Ge and I have always been good friends, so let me go with him! It's just right for me to try out the clone technique I learned recently!"

"You, obviously, just want to watch the fun." Chong Fan laughed and shook his head, "Go ahead!"

"Got it!"

Bayan was seen covering his bird head with his wings, making a gesture as if he was holding back a powerful move.

A moment later, an identical Ba Yan appeared in front of Chong Fan.

This little guy actually mastered the art of clone himself!

The two Ba Yans looked at each other, both of them were extremely happy.

Then one of them said goodbye, "My Lady, I am leaving now."

It flapped its wings and disappeared.

-

In the Mo River.

Luo Cheng'an followed the three Shen Tuo monsters to the top of an underwater palace.

A large number of water monsters were coming in and out of the palace, some carrying things out and some transporting items inside.

It looks like the atmosphere is very lively and everyone is very motivated.

Shen Tuo got off the turtle's back and swam to the front of the palace. He said helplessly, "Didn't I tell you not to take care of the palace for me? We clam monsters don't care about our homes, so there's no need for you to go to so much trouble."

When the other little demons saw that their lord had returned, they were all very happy.

But when the little demons heard what Shen Tuo said, they disagreed.

A fish spirit said, "My Lord, what are you talking about? You have protected us for so long, and we should do this."

“Yes, we did this willingly.”

"You taught us that no matter whether we are human or demon, the most important thing is a conscience. We are weak and cannot help you do something big. But we can do these small things. Let us repay you!"

"Yes, now that you have regained control of the Mo River, how can the lord of a river not even have a decent place to live? If people tell others, they will think that there are no monsters in our Mo River!"

Seeing everyone expressing their true feelings, not only Shen Tuo's eyes became red, but even Luo Cheng'an was deeply moved.

Even Ba Yan, who followed Luo Cheng'an into the water using the water-avoidance technique, was amazed.

Luo Cheng'an couldn't help but say to Shen Tuo beside him: "Master Shen has done a great job in educating people!"

Shen Tuo wiped his eyes and said, "I don't usually teach them anything. I just tell them what I think."

"Mr. Shen is too modest. I think these little demons are all kind-hearted and righteous. They are not much worse than humans who are naturally intelligent."

Shen Tuo looked at all the little demons with satisfaction, but frowned in confusion and said to himself:

"I know they trust me and are grateful to me. But do they really think... that I am their god? Am I really... qualified to be a god?"

Looking at Shen Tuo's confused eyes, Luo Cheng'an smiled and said, "Just ask and you'll know."

As he spoke, he patted the turtle's shell and said casually, "Fellow Daoist Turtle, I am an outsider and cannot say anything. It's up to you to decide what to do next."

The turtle spirit looked at the trusting eyes of Luo Chengan and Mirage Zhuyu, and a great passion was aroused in his heart.

It seems like I am going to complete some big task.

It nodded, trying to look serious, with determination in its eyes.

He moved his demonic power to his throat and then said loudly: "Everyone! I have a question for everyone!"
