140: Chapter 141 The God Said We'd Eat Turtle Tonight!

Jiang Feng slowly lowered his fist.

Killing an opponent who had already given up resistance, and even started fawning and begging for mercy, was somewhat beneath him. As a dignified Old Ancestor, he still had that much integrity.

He stepped forward and kicked the Iron-Armored Golden Turtle on its forehead.

The force wasn't great, but it was extremely insulting.

"That's enough, stop kowtowing."

"Take me out first."

The Iron-Armored Golden Turtle seemed to understand, as it abruptly stopped its kowtowing, nodded its massive turtle head, and then slowly turned its body to swim toward the giant opening it had come from.

Jiang Feng pushed off with his feet and landed steadily on its turtle back.

...

Before long.

Splash!

The sea surface exploded.

A massive golden shadow, comparable to a small island, broke through the water, stirring up monstrous waves.

The prayers on the shore stopped abruptly.

All the tribespeople of the Black Turtle Tribe stared intently at the behemoth exuding endless, vicious might.

But why was this monster covered in pits and bumps all over?

Some were still so frightened that their faces turned deathly pale, their legs went weak, and they collapsed to the ground.

"It... it's that great demon!"

"It's out! The Heavenly God... has the Heavenly God failed?"

"Run! Run!"

Desperate screams erupted from the crowd; the Bloodline fear of hundreds of years was awakened at this moment, and everyone scrambled to flee toward the depths of the tribe.

However, just as the crowd was about to descend into chaos.

Sharp-eyed Little Queen Jin Xi suddenly pointed at the top of the giant beast and screamed with all her might:

"The Heavenly God! It's the Heavenly God! He's on top!"

Everyone looked up then.

They saw a white-haired figure standing with hands behind his back on the back of the golden behemoth, his clothes fluttering.

Who else could it be but their Heavenly God, Jiang Feng?

The fleeing motions froze.

Desperate screams stuck in their throats.

Everyone froze.

After the shock came a roar like a tsunami!

The Heavenly God had truly done it.

That Vicious Beast that had plagued the tribe for a hundred years, their nightmare for generations, was now being trampled under the Heavenly God's feet!

The Iron-Armored Golden Turtle lay submissively, slowly swimming toward the shore, having been completely tamed.

Boom.

The massive turtle body reached the shore, causing the beach to tremble.

Jiang Feng leaped down from the turtle back, his figure light, landing steadily on the sand.

When they saw the appearance of the great demon—a giant golden turtle—the tribespeople of the Black Turtle Tribe had complex expressions, their faces full of disbelief.

They had worshipped turtles as their faith for generations, regarding them as Sacred Beasts, yet it was a close relative of this very "Sacred Beast" that had slaughtered their people for a hundred years.

Jiang Feng ignored everyone's shock and simply stated the cruel truth.

"This turtle is called an Iron-Armored Golden Turtle. The island beneath your feet is actually the corpse of a giant turtle. For a hundred years, this Iron-Armored Golden Turtle has fed on the giant turtle's corpse and consumed its essence blood, growing step by step."

"In order to swim back to the sea, it shook the giant turtle's body, causing your people to fall into the water, and then it fed on your people to replenish itself."

"This is the root cause of the land diminishing, the island trembling, and the tragic deaths of your people."

...

Hearing Jiang Feng's words, everyone finally understood everything.

Naturally, no one doubted the words of this Heavenly God.

After a brief silence, monstrous grief and indignation erupted from the crowd.

A tear-stained woman grabbed a stone and threw it at the Iron-Armored Golden Turtle's shell with all her might.

"Kill it!"

"Return my father's life!"

"I'll fight you to the death!"

A man roared, raised a wooden club, and charged forward.

One person's action ignited everyone's rage.

The hatred suppressed for a hundred years exploded at this moment.

The tribespeople no longer cared about faith or fear; only the blood feud remained in their hearts, and they charged like madmen toward the Iron-Armored Golden Turtle lying on the shore, not daring to move.

They threw stones, struck with wooden clubs, and bit with their teeth, venting the hatred and sorrow from deep within their Bloodline in the most primitive way.

The Iron-Armored Golden Turtle had thick skin and flesh; these attacks didn't even count as scratching an itch for it, but it just pulled its head in tighter, letting these people vent, not even daring to have a single thought of resistance.

Jiang Feng just watched quietly, merely intimidating the Golden Turtle without stopping the Black Turtle tribespeople.

The hatred of a hundred years needed to be vented by their own hands.

After a long time, when everyone was tired from hitting and crying, the wave of venting gradually subsided.

Granny Gu and Little Queen Jin Xi walked up to Jiang Feng and knelt on the ground with utmost solemnity.

"Heavenly God!"

Granny Gu was streaming with tears, kowtowing once more, her forehead pressed firmly against the sandy ground. "You have avenged this blood feud for our Black Turtle Tribe. This great kindness is something our entire tribe will never forget for eternity!"

Little Queen Jin Xi also followed suit, kowtowing heavily.

Jiang Feng helped them up; he had received too many kowtows these past few days, and there was even someone older than him—Jiang Feng was afraid it would invite some kind of karmic retribution.

Granny Gu stood up, turned to look at the panting tribespeople whose eyes were still filled with hatred, and shouted loudly:

"All of you, stand back!"

Leaning on her cane, she walked up to the Iron-Armored Golden Turtle, looked around, her voice hoarse but firm.

"This beast has plagued our tribe for a hundred years and deserves to die a thousand deaths!"

"But it was the Heavenly God who subdued it. Its life and death must be decided by the Heavenly God!"

All the tribespeople stepped back, clearing a large open space, and focused all their gazes on Jiang Feng.

Although there was still hatred in their eyes, there was more awe and conviction.

Jiang Feng's gaze swept across the crowd.

Honestly, taking such an ancient exotic beast as a mount—how cool would it be to travel in the future?

This idea was indeed tempting.

But his gaze swept past the crowd and landed on the children hiding behind their mothers.

In the eyes of those children, besides admiration for him, there was also an unfathomable, thick hatred.

A living thorn is always more unsettling than a dead enemy.

When weeding, one must remove the roots.

Thinking of this, a flash of killing intent passed through Jiang Feng's eyes.

The Iron-Armored Golden Turtle lying on the ground felt its massive body tremble violently; the instinct for survival made it stop caring about anything else, and it kicked its four limbs hard, wanting to dive back into the sea to escape!

"You want to run now?"

Jiang Feng's voice was very soft, yet it fell clearly into everyone's ears.

"It's too late."

His figure flashed, and he had already appeared above the Iron-Armored Golden Turtle.

He raised his hand.

Then, he smashed down with a punch.

There were no earth-shattering visions, nor any rainbow-piercing secret arts.

It was just pure, irresistible power.

Boom!

That stone-house-sized turtle head, along with its indestructible shell, cracked in response.

The massive body shook violently, and those dark green eyes instantly lost their luster, completely dimming.

The whole scene was moved to tears.

Jiang Feng landed slowly.

He brushed off the non-existent dust from his hands.

He looked around at the faces frozen in shock and grinned.

"What are you all standing there stunned for?"

"Start a fire."

"Tonight, I'm treating you to turtle!"

As Jiang Feng's voice fell, deafening cheers erupted from the crowd.

"Heavenly God..."

And at this moment, Little Queen Jin Xi silently made a decision in her heart.
