Chapter 241: Discrimination

The Fortune Cudgel was like lightning, chasing after Ye Xuan who had sneaked into the East Sea, then entering into Ye Xuan’s ear in just a few seconds.

Ye Xuan, in his Xuanwu state, had a vast ear world. After the Fortune Cudgel flew in, it began to explore its new home, getting familiar with the place.

Ye Xuan was also exploring the East Sea. Since the spiritual energy had recovered, there had been significant changes in the East Sea.

These mutated marine creatures were generally much larger in size than before, and some seaweeds and corals in the ocean had also become very large.

The entire ocean world was bizarre and extremely exciting.

Ye Xuan transformed into Xuanwu, easily venturing into the deep sea area. With a pair of turtle eyes and a pair of snake eyes, he excitedly looked around, like a child in an amusement park.

While Ye Xuan was admiring the surrounding sea views, above him, a group of large marine beasts passed by.

This group of beasts had already swum over Ye Xuan’s head, but they noticed something and returned.

Then, Ye Xuan heard a voice: “Brother, what’s with this appearance? Quite bizarre.”

Ye Xuan looked up and saw a huge turtle, similar in size to him.

There were some battle marks on the turtle’s shell, but its tail was a normal short turtle tail, unlike Ye Xuan’s, which was a snake tail.

Beside this huge turtle, there were several other large beasts, one of which was a giant black dragon measuring eight hundred meters long, looking extremely majestic.

The black dragon was also sizing up Ye Xuan, and the knowledge from its bloodline told it that the big turtle in front of it was not simple.

Ye Xuan looked at the turtle and said, “Is there something wrong with my appearance?”

The giant turtle replied, “Of course, there is a problem. When animals evolve and become mutated beasts, it should also follow scientific principles. Look at us, we simply grew in size. A turtle remains a turtle and does not turn into a snake through evolution, just as a frog does not become a crab. Your appearance, half turtle and half snake, is quite bold!”

As soon as this mutated turtle spoke, the other surrounding beasts burst into laughter, even the Black Dragon King joined in.

The giant crab said, “Turtles mating with snakes, this is the first time I’ve heard of it. Impressive!”

The Black Dragon King, in a humble manner, said, “With such a bizarre appearance, you must often face discrimination from other beasts, right? Join my Black Dragon King’s side, and I guarantee you will be well taken care of, no longer facing discrimination from other beasts.”

Listening to the words of the Black Dragon King and others, Ye Xuan felt a bit annoyed. Although the Xuanwu Divine Form was just one of his forms, being mocked by the beasts made him quite unhappy.

At the same time, he was puzzled. These beasts couldn’t speak human language, so how could they communicate with each other and express these thoughts accurately? They even learned to use slang and knew about discrimination!

Since he was being discriminated against, Ye Xuan couldn’t just sit back. He directly said, “You are looking for trouble!”

Then, Ye Xuan rushed towards the giant turtle, and the two turtle shells collided fiercely, causing the surrounding seawater to churn.

The Black Dragon King and other beasts did not intervene; they stayed back, watching Ye Xuan and the other turtle fight.

Turtles were generally good-natured creatures, and even after mutation, they were mainly defensive.

It was quite rare to see turtles fighting each other, and the Black Dragon King and other beasts were happy to watch the spectacle.

The collision of the turtle shells, whether Xuanwu or the mutated turtle, focused more on defense than attack.

If Ye Xuan’s defense was five thousand, and the mutated turtle’s defense was two thousand, then both their attacks were around one hundred.

Ye Xuan had a much stronger defense than the mutated turtle, but his attack power was limited, so neither could overpower the other.

Of course, Ye Xuan wouldn’t give up like this. Being mocked by the old turtle for his heritage, Ye Xuan had to teach him a lesson to uphold the dignity of Xuanwu.

Finally, during the next collision of the turtle shells, Ye Xuan’s snake head suddenly launched a sneak attack, biting the head of the giant turtle like lightning and injecting venom.

In just a few seconds, the originally green head of the giant turtle turned black and green, looking quite miserable.

The giant turtle cried out in pain, saying, “Are you really serious? I was just joking with you. Did you have to be so ruthless?”

Ye Xuan pretended to be innocent, “Joking? I don’t understand what joking means. If you provoke me, I will kill you!”

At this moment, the Black Dragon King intervened, saying, “Alright, alright, we are all East Sea mutated beasts, and you are both turtle-like mutants. Why make the relationship so tense?”

The giant turtle angrily retorted, “Turtle-like mutants? Where have you seen a turtle-like mutant using poison? Turtles don’t have such degenerates!”

The Black Dragon King was a bit annoyed, “Shut up! If you provoke our new friend again, I’ll swallow you whole! Do you want to test if your shell can withstand my teeth?”

As the Black Dragon King spoke, it opened its mouth ferociously, revealing two missing large teeth.

Seeing the dragon’s toothless mouth, the giant turtle burst into laughter, followed by the sea stars, crabs, and sea snakes, all laughing along.

Ye Xuan couldn’t help but laugh as well. When he controlled the Fortune Cudgel, his thoughts were on the staff, so he naturally knew what was happening.

The Black Dragon King actually wanted to bite off the Fortune Cudgel but ended up biting off its own teeth. It was truly hilarious.

Thinking about this, Ye Xuan said, “Your dental hygiene doesn’t seem to be good. How did you lose two big teeth?”

The Black Dragon King was very angry, but these loyal followers around it were its mainstay.

The giant toad from last time had long been disliked by the Black Dragon King. It croaked incessantly every day and always looked up to the Mermaid King with admiration.

The toad had openly stated that it had originally wanted to be under the Mermaid King’s command but was rejected due to being too ugly, so it ended up under the Black Dragon King’s command.

The Black Dragon King had been dissatisfied with the toad for a long time, so it seized the opportunity to eat it. As for the other loyal followers, it wouldn’t eat them just because of a few laughs.
