The Swordfish Sea Soul Beasts looked at each other. One of them, a thousand-year cultivation Swordfish, replied cautiously, "Pu." It was the one who just fought with you.
"Pu pu." Master Xiaobai, aren't you and the Evil Tiger Whale clan always looking for her?
Xiaobai was stunned. Just as she was about to say, "When did I have the same goal as those evil tigers?" she suddenly realized something. Her golden pupils shrank, and she remembered why she had felt a strange sense of déjà vu when fighting Tang Sui.
The black-haired devil! The culprit that made the evil tigers hate her to the bone!
Black-haired! But not human! Powerful!
Even the black-haired person who fought her, the King of the hundred-thousand-year cultivation Spirit Devouring Great White Shark, to a standstill... a strange soul beast!
Xiaobai, whose eyes were filled with intense excitement as she matched the characteristics of the legendary monster circulating in the sea with Tang Sui, flicked her tail, stirring up the currents and sweeping up those two to three-meter-long Swordfish. While they were disoriented, she charged back to land.
"Huala—!"
The sound of breaking water echoed.
The Shrek Nine Monsters, who were quietly discussing the second trial on shore, looked up. They saw Xiaobai, who had leaped into the air and instantly transformed into a human, plummeting towards them. She was excitedly—blocked by the black and red energy barrier Tang Sui had erected.
"Bang!"
The tooth-jarring sound of collision made everyone else's eyelids twitch, but the source of the sound made no sound of pain. Contrary to her previous arrogance, her gaze at Tang Sui was like a dog seeing a bone, wagging its tail excitedly.
"You, you, you!"
Xiaobai, excited, uttered a single word from her mouth.
Tang Sui, full of confusion: "Me?"
Xiaobai, who had finally sorted out her thoughts and words, blurted out, "You are that devil!"
Tang Sui: "....?"
She instantly lost her composure.
Tang San and the others were also embarrassed. Looking at Xiaobai, who was sticking to the barrier and even trying to break through it, they felt a headache coming on.
"What... devil?" Xiao Wu's expression was strange.
Isn't Sui Sui a mixed-blood of soul beast and demon? What is a devil?
Xiaobai looked at Tang Sui, who had a confused expression, and said in surprise, "You don't know! You're famous in the sea now!"
Famous in the sea...
Some memories she had suppressed began to surface.
Tang Sui, who understood something from Xiaobai's fragmented words, paused, then removed the barrier. In front of Tang San and the others, she took Xiaobai's hand, which was even colder than hers.
"Brother, I need to speak with you privately for a moment."
It was better not to let her brother and the others know about such strange "rumors."
The remaining people looked at each other, bewildered.
Tang San turned to Xiao Wu, who was confused, and asked softly, "Xiao Wu, do you know what's going on?"
Xiao Wu was completely clueless, "Ah? I don't know either. This is the first time I've seen that Spirit Devouring Great White Shark."
"Is that so..." Tang San mused thoughtfully.
On the other side, Xiaobai, who had been pulled aside by Tang Sui, stared intently at Tang Sui and said with understanding, "Your companions don't know about this, do they?"
Did she mean that she wasn't as foolish as she seemed, and that her trust in those humans was just a facade?!
Xiaobai was excited by her own speculation, and her tone became visibly cheerful, "Don't worry! Since you don't want to tell those humans, I'll help you keep it a secret too!"
"It's not a matter of secrecy. They'll find out sooner or later. I just don't want them to be distracted right now," Tang Sui said, looking at Xiaobai, who seemed to think she could still turn back, with a hint of helplessness.
Xiaobai frowned, "Distracted? Why?"
"Because sometimes, there's no harm without comparison," Tang Sui's voice was very soft.
No one understood the power of this sentence better than she did.
Just like Bai An Nian in her previous life, who thought she had secured her place in the wealthy family and that everything was hers because of Madam Bai.
For etiquette lessons, piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and dance... To surpass her, the legitimate eldest daughter of the Tang family, Bai An Nian had tried very hard.
Unfortunately, all her efforts and determination shattered with the actual comparison.
No matter how Bai An Nian tried to catch up from behind, she could never reach her height.
So in the end, she erupted in silence. After that piano performance attended by famous musicians, Bai An Nian returned to the Tang family and personally smashed everything in the piano room.
Including that piano worth millions, and she had a big argument with Madam Bai.
Later... what happened later?
Tang Sui closed her eyes, unable to recall that part of the memory, only vaguely remembering that Bai An Nian had died. She couldn't quite remember how she died.
Because more than half of her memory palace was now used to store memories of this world.
"Hey, what's wrong?"
The light and shadow flickered, alternately bright and dark.
Tang Sui opened her eyes. It turned out Xiaobai had extended her hand and was waving it in front of Tang Sui's eyes.
"Nothing. I was just wondering if you returned just to verify this?"
"Oh, oh, I came back mainly to ask if you intend to stand against the Evil Tiger Whale clan," Xiaobai extended an olive branch. "If so, our Spirit Devouring Great White Shark clan can become your ironclad ally!"
She patted her chest to guarantee it.
Tang Sui raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Xiaobai leisurely, "Since you know that I blew up... killed those Evil Tiger Whales, you should also know how I disposed of their corpses, right? Aren't you afraid?"
After killing those Evil Tiger Whales, she hadn't concealed it. Many times, she had wrapped their corpses with her demonic energy and disappeared before the eyes of some surviving Evil Tiger Whales or the Evil Tiger Whale clan leader who had sensed the commotion, leaving no corpses behind. Sudan Novel Network.
All soul beasts knew what it meant if a soul beast killed another and then took away its corpse.
Xiaobai, as one of the dominant races in the ocean, raised her chin slightly, "Isn't this very common? Although our Spirit Devouring Great White Shark clan has become the guardian beast of Sea God Island, the instinct of soul beasts for survival of the fittest will not change. We still eat."
As for what they ate, it was of course meat.
After becoming a dependent race of Sea God, the gentle side of the Spirit Devouring Great White Sharks was only shown to humans or soul beasts they found pleasing, and to those who believed in Sea God. But their essence was still wild. Apart from their own kind, they adhered to the law of the jungle.
Tang Sui, feeling no unusual emotion from Xiaobai, pondered for two seconds and nodded, "Okay. Although our purposes are different, our goals are the same."
That is, to deal with the Evil Tiger Whale clan.
Xiaobai's eyes lit up, and she extended her hand to Tang Sui, "If we encounter the Evil Tiger Whale clan next time, shall we fight together?"
"Of course. My name is Tang Sui. Please take care of me in the future."
The hands of two people, equally devoid of warmth, clasped together.
