Transmigrated into a tortoise, the Empress and the Goddess became my sisters.

The Asura Goddess was so frightened that she took a step back and waved her claws repeatedly.

"I'm not going! I won't be bait!"

Lin Tian smiled. "Monkeys are primates, and their spiritual energy is much higher than that of mud carp. Think about it, mud carp can make your stomach hurt from bloating, but what about monkeys?"

"Isn't taking a bite faster than eating hundreds of mud carp to transform into human form?"

The Asura Goddess hesitated, persuaded but still somewhat reluctant: "Well..."

Lin Tian added, "Besides, you, the dignified Asura Goddess, are actually afraid of a few monkeys?"

Upon hearing this, the Asura Goddess became agitated and abruptly stood up.

"Right! Why should I be afraid of them? If I catch one and can't finish it, I can dry it into monkey jerky and take it with me on the road!"

After saying that, he turned around and started to walk away.

Lin Tian called out to him, "Where are you going?"

The Asura Goddess didn't even turn her head: "Go and lure them over here."

Lin Tian and the Empress exchanged a glance, then looked down at her short legs, their meaning clear.

At your speed, you think you can outrun a monkey?

The Asura Goddess also realized what was happening. She stood there stunned for a few seconds, looked down at her legs, and was speechless.

Lin Tian shook his head and said, "Don't run that far. Just wait behind the trap. We'll make a fire later, and with the light at night, the monkey will definitely come by itself."

The Goddess of Asura was a little confused: "And then?"

"If you find one monkey, immediately retreat into your shell. Leave the rest to us, and we'll shoot arrows."

"They are afraid of bamboo and will definitely run away. You will definitely not get hurt, don't worry."

After hearing this, the Goddess of Asura was even more bewildered.

"What if they didn't run away?"

Lin Tian glanced at her and said, "Then let fate decide."

Despite saying that, Lin Tian knew in his heart that monkeys are primates and would definitely run away if they were scared; they wouldn't fight to the death.

The Empress felt a little uneasy, as if eating monkeys was strange, like eating people.

But thinking that he hadn't avenged his grudge and had lost the mud carp, he gritted his teeth and silently vowed, "I'm going to eat this monkey for the sake of transforming into human form."

Then, the three turtles started collecting twigs, and Lin Tian found a dry piece of wood and demonstrated how to start a fire by rubbing sticks together.

Smoke rose from the withered wood, and flames leaped up, leaving both the Asura Goddess and the Empress stunned.

The Goddess of Asura couldn't help but exclaim, "Brother, you can even conjure fire with those tortoise claws?"

Lin Tian threw in a dry leaf, which made the fire burn even brighter.

The Asura Goddess tilted her head, "How come you can do everything?"

Lin Tian smiled wryly: "If you've ever been slapped on the hand by your physics teacher, you will too."

The firelight flickered, and the wood crackled and popped incessantly.

Lin Tian stared at the direction of the trap, calculating the time in his mind, when suddenly, a piercing "squeak squeak squeak" came from afar.

The sounds were chaotic, sometimes high and sometimes low.

"They're here, let's retreat."

Lin Tian looked up and turned back to speak.

The empress nodded and followed him backward.

The Asura Goddess was stunned. Seeing the two turtles turn and leave, she couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going?"

Lin Tian didn't even turn his head: "It's up to you."

As the goddess of asura watched their retreating figures, a single word flashed through her mind: "son of a bitch."

But then I thought about it again, and realized that I was also a son of a bitch, the purebred kind, and suddenly I felt a little speechless.

She shook her shell, took a deep breath, and shouted, "You bunch of stinking monkeys, come and get me!"

"We've caught you, you can do whatever you want with us now!"

The sound echoed in the night, like a broken gong.

After shouting, I suddenly felt something was off. Why did those words sound so strange?

Lin Tian and the Empress, hiding behind bushes in the distance, glanced at each other, their minds blank.

"What is she doing?"

Lin Tian rubbed his head: "I don't know, he might have gone crazy again."

At this moment, the monkeys suddenly fell silent for a second, then they all turned to look at them and started chattering away.

The voice was louder than before, sounding like someone was cursing.

Several monkeys bent down, picked up the stones from the ground, and rushed towards the direction of the Asura Goddess.

The Asura Goddess stuck out her tongue and flicked it: "Hehehe, come on, let's have some fun!"

The lead monkey, with a tuft of red fur on its head, was clearly the leader. Waving its paws, it charged forward first.

"I'm coming!"

The Asura Goddess retreated into her shell, but felt inexplicably excited.

The red-haired monkey jumped to the edge of the trap and stepped on it; a sharp bamboo stalk instantly pierced its foot.

"Ah—chirp!"

The red-haired monkey let out a scream and lost its balance.

It fell to the ground in the center of the trap with a thud, got caught in the net, and was hoisted to a tree, swaying back and forth.

Lin Tian was overjoyed and patted the Empress on the shoulder: "It's done!"

The red-haired monkey hung in mid-air, yelling and grabbing wildly with its hands, but it couldn't break free. The thin hemp rope was so tight that its hands and feet were cramping from the pain.

The monkeys below all stopped and began chattering incessantly.

The original plan to catch the turtle instantly turned into rescuing the boss.

Several monkeys squatted on the ground, gesturing with their hands, as if discussing how to rescue the person.

"They seem to be holding a war council," the Empress whispered.

Lin Tian nodded: "It's alright, let them discuss it."

Soon, the monkey troop seemed to reach a consensus and began to act.

Several monkeys supported themselves on all fours, while the others climbed onto their backs, forming a human ladder, and then climbed directly up to the red-haired monkey.

Lin Tian sneered, "Isn't this just handing over to their death?"

"Fire arrows!"

The flexible branch suddenly snapped open, and more than a dozen sharpened bamboo stalks shot out instantly, whistling through the air as they headed straight for the monkey troop.

As the Asura Goddess saw the bamboo fly past, she immediately shouted, "Shoot it!"

After shouting, it retracted into its shell, and then heard a few thuds as the bamboo hit the tortoise shell.

Hearing the sounds outside, the Asura Goddess instantly felt a sense of security.

It's so great to be a turtle!

Meanwhile, chaos reigned outside.

The monkeys forming the human ladder screamed in agony. Several were pierced by bamboo and rolled on the ground, some bleeding and others howling in pain.

Although there was no fatal injury, he was in so much pain that he was jumping around.

The monkey troop, which had originally intended to save the red-haired monkey, completely lost their composure, chattering and screaming as they fled into the depths of the forest.

Lin Tian emerged from behind the bushes, looked at the red-haired monkey hanging in the tree, and nodded in satisfaction.

"Now we'll have monkeys to eat!"

The Empress followed, staring in the direction the monkey troop had gone.

"They won't come back, will they?"

Lin Tian shook his head: "After being shot like this, I don't have the guts to come again."

The Asura Goddess emerged from her shell and stretched.

"How did I do?"

Lin Tian ignored her and walked to the tree where the red-haired monkey was hanging, tugging at the rope with his paw.

"This guy is fat enough."

The Empress leaned closer: "Brother, what do we do next?"

Lin Tian looked at the red-haired monkey that was tied up like a rice dumpling and smiled.

"What else can we do? Eat it."

The Asura Goddess jumped up and down excitedly: "That's right! If we can't finish them, we can dry them into monkey jerky and take them with us on the road!"

The Empress hesitated for a moment: "Brother, is it really okay for you to eat monkeys?"

Lin Tian glanced at her and said, "Is transforming into human form important, or not?"

The empress lowered her head and thought for two seconds, then remained silent.

The Goddess of Asura had already picked up a stone beside her: "Come on, knock it unconscious first!"

She lowered the net around the monkey and aimed at the top of its head.

But before the stone could be thrown, Lin Tian suddenly spoke.

"and many more!"
