Monster Master: Evidence of the Way

"I'm sorry to interrupt your moving speech," Baihu said, "but if we keep running around like headless flies, we'll definitely be caught again."

What Baihu said made sense. It seemed that Bubulu and the others were not very familiar with the structure of the Dragon Palace. If they continued like this, they would be caught sooner or later.

Damn it! I was in such a hurry that I overlooked this!

"and many more……"

Yiyin suddenly realized that there seemed to be a market in front of them, maybe Selena and Kiki were there.

"Bubulu, I'm going to use the breath-holding technique taught by Master Angulin to check out the front. You just stand here and don't move."

After Yi Yin finished speaking, he went to the market alone to investigate.

.

This market connects to the Outer Sea, so commerce is brisk. Several boats that look like salmon are sailing through the Outer Sea, loaded with goods.

It's so prosperous, Yi Yin thought.

Several mermaids were shouting and selling fish scales, and a fishman with a carp head was selling his children - a big bag of fish eggs. It seemed that life in the Dragon Palace was not very rich.

Yi Yin sighed, then looked around. In addition to those selling fish scales and fish eggs, there were also those selling people... It was so backward that there was even a slave market here.

wrong……

Yi Yin wiped his eyes carefully. Wasn't the person being sold Qinglong? No wonder Qinglong asked them for help. It turned out that he was being sold as a slave!

Qinglong's hands and feet were tied together tightly with a pair of coral ropes. Her face had lost its former expression. She just lowered her head and said nothing, looking extremely miserable.

For some reason, when he saw Qinglong, Yiyin thought of her head tilting and falling off in front of him. Although he knew it was an illusion created by the Baozu insect, it was still quite realistic.

Now how to do?

If Yiyin lifted the breath-holding technique, he would definitely be caught on the spot and thrown back into jail. But if he didn't lift it, was he going to watch Qinglong being bought?

Damn it, if only I had more Luke… Yiyin thought sadly.

Just then, a fishman took a fancy to Qinglong and came over to politely ask the price.

"Three golden shells."

The seller said this without blushing or beating his heart.

"How many?"

The merman frowned (I don't know if mermen have eyebrows, but I'll just say that), "This is a low-quality human of the lowest pedigree. 0.1 gold shells are too expensive! Besides, this person looks like he can't be beaten or eaten. Using him as a figurine would pollute the water source."

The seller was obviously anxious. "Brother, look where can you find humans these days? These are all humans imported from outside the palace. If you think they're too expensive, I think so too!"

The fishman didn't say anything more, just cursed for a while and left.

Not long after the merman left, a creature appeared, leaning on a coral crutch, with gray eyebrows, two gray whiskers on the corners of his lips, and a huge cream cake flower-like turtle shell on his back.

There is no doubt that this is a turtle.

"Mr. Prime Minister Turtle, how come you have time to visit my humble home?" the seller said with a flattering look on his face.

"Hmph, stop being so hypocritical, Nawei."

Nawei is a strong tiger-thorn merman, but in front of Prime Minister Turtle, he is not as domineering as he is with other mermen.

Prime Minister Turtle said sternly, "How many years have we abolished slavery? And yet they still dare to openly engage in human trafficking? It really chills my heart! Hand this man over to me, and get out of here!"

"Yes, yes, Prime Minister Turtle, please take care of yourself."

After Na Wei said this, he put Qinglong down and left in shame.

"Come out, boy."

After scaring Na Wei away, Prime Minister Turtle suddenly started talking to the air.

Yi Yin was immediately startled and broke out in a cold sweat. Could it be that Prime Minister Turtle had discovered him? That shouldn't be the case. He had already activated the breath-holding technique, minimizing his presence. Could someone just go to the side of the road and kick a stone?

But seeing how confident Prime Minister Turtle seems, maybe one must be careful about appearances.

Thinking of this, Yi Yinzang gritted his teeth, released the breath-holding technique, and appeared in front of Prime Minister Turtle.

"Junior Yiyin greets the Prime Minister." Yiyin clasped his fists to Prime Minister Gui.

"Boy, I, the old turtle, have served the Yulong Royal Family for three thousand seven hundred years and have seen all sorts of storms. I can tell at a glance that you are different from the others. You look a lot like Flamehorn Loren who visited us many years ago. Especially..."

Prime Minister Turtle looked at the top of Yiyin's head and said, "Your turtle is even more powerful."

Yi Yin was delighted and put down the green-haired turtle on his head.

"Prime Minister, are you saying that my monster, the green-haired turtle, possesses magical powers?"

"No, it's just an ordinary turtle monster. If there's anything different about it, it's probably that it has a warm heart."

A fiery heart...

Just like, Flamehorn Loren.

Prime Minister Turtle took out a gold-embossed manuscript and handed it to Yiyin.

"A long time ago, Flamehorn Loren came here. I had a good impression of him. He said that if someone with the same sense of justice comes here again, I should give him this."

Yi Yin took the manuscript, opened it, and saw a few neat large characters written on it:

Leaving aside this endless heroic road, as I continue to move forward, I have realized the true meaning of life.

I would like to pay tribute to the supreme ichthyosaur clan!

Flamehorn Loren

If I give this to Bubulu, he will be overjoyed, Yiyin thought.

"This person is your friend, right? Take her away now. I'll turn a blind eye this time. If I see you again, I'll throw you all into the Outer Sea to feed the piranhas."

After saying that, Prime Minister Turtle kicked Qinglong, who groaned twice and seemed to be still asleep.

"That... Prime Minister..."

Yiyin hesitated for a moment, but decided to bring out the tray to Prime Minister Turtle.

"I-I saw Herara when I got here. She was fine."

Iin's mission this time is to protect Herara and keep her alive. However, anyone who has read the original novel knows that Herara is doomed to die in Book 8. This is "fate." To overturn fate, conventional means are not possible; it can only be accomplished by a time traveler like him.

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Turtle suddenly narrowed his eyes solemnly.

"How do you know Herara?"

"To be honest, I have an old friend..."

Prime Minister Turtle seemed to have thought of something. He looked at the green-haired turtle, then at Yiyin, and then showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

"I see! So that's how it is. Is Cecilia okay? I saw her when she was just born. Even her monster was named by me."

Since Qinglong can invite Dragon Palace to come, it is not surprising that Prime Minister Turtle knows Xuanwu.

Yiyin told Prime Minister Gui everything that had happened between him and Xuanwu not long ago.

“I didn’t expect it to be like this…”

Prime Minister Turtle murmured, "It seems that something big is coming. The next era belongs to the young people..."

Before Prime Minister Turtle could finish his words, he heard a commotion.

Mermaids and mermen went out to capture humans.

"not good!"

Yiyin was shocked, thinking that Bubulu must have revealed his true identity!

As expected, Bubulu and his companions were forced into the moat of the Outer Sea by armed mermaids and fishmen.

"Prime Minister, they are all my friends, can you..."

Yi Yin winked at Prime Minister Turtle frantically, but Prime Minister Turtle remained indifferent. He knew that even he should not offend the public.

.

Bubulu and his men were fighting and retreating, and there was no way to retreat.

"You are really troublemakers. Why don't you just listen to Yiyin?" Baihu said angrily.

"It's too late to say that now."

Di Qi shot out a lot of spider silk as if it were free, knocking down many soldiers, but more soldiers rushed up one after another.

"Someone is coming to pick us up below!"

Bubulu had very sensitive ears and knew that they must have been saved.

"Blue!"

The Sibuxiang jumped down happily without saying a word.

However, Bubulu also jumped down.

"These two guys are always like this." Jiaozi muttered anxiously and angrily.

Forget it, so be it.

After giving eye signals to Diqi and Baihu, the three of them jumped down together following Bubulu.
