“What?” Dog Egg, who was leading the way, was pondering what to have for lunch, so he didn’t hear what the broad sword man said.

“He said he wants to see the Willow God!” The boys behind them scratched their heads, rushing to relay the message.

“You want to see the Willow God?” Dog Egg frowned: “I can’t make that decision, I’m just leading the way. You have to ask the Village Chief Grandpa.

But in the village, aside from Brother De Quan and Uncle Lin Zhuang, if anyone else wants to pay homage to the Willow God on the mountain, they need to let the Village Chief Grandpa know in advance.”

Dog Egg scratched his head, he was very warm-hearted, always willing to share his knowledge, but he had little influence with his skinny arms and legs.

“Anyway, thank you, kid, for the reminder!” The broad sword man made a fist in appreciation, grateful and impressed by the gentleness of the villagers of Liu

Village.

You know, when he was young, he had traveled to many places and seen many large clans. Let alone the top powerful tribes of ancient nations, even the ordinary large tribes were always arrogant, and their people were even more

SO.

Neither those ordinary large clans nor those top powerful tribes could compare

to the quiet little mountain village before his eyes.

The members of the former clan at most were kings or marquises at the array level, while the latter – they were deities, high above, silently watching the mortal world for thousands of years.

The group’s pace was brisk.

Suddenly, after making a few turns, under Dog Egg’s guidance, a wide, open square came into view for the broad sword man and his group.

It was a large open space, paved with smooth marble.

In the middle of the square stood several bronze cauldrons.

Underneath the cauldrons, fiercely burning flames made cracking sounds…

Around the bronze cauldrons, Old man Lin, the old tribal chief of the Native Tribe, and some other tribal elders were busy preparing materials for a medicine bath for the children of the village of the appropriate age.

From time to time, they would throw into the cauldron some shiny black centipedes, spiders, or frogs the size of grinding wheels, and so on.

Under the intense fire’s heat, a faint bitter-sweet smell soon filled the air. When all this was done, Old man Lin carefully took out several beast skin bags that had been stored for a long time and removed some ground white powder from them.

“Alright, the fire is about right, we can pour the blood in now!” The old tribal chief of the Native Tribe glanced at the fire under the cauldron, felt the temperature inside the bronze cauldron, and said.

Soon, someone brought several ceramic jars.

The ceramic jars contained blood from rare Species of the Ancient Times. In ordinary tribes, even if they possess valuable blood from Species of the Ancient Times, when the children of the village carry out their medicine baths, they often opt for ordinary Ferocious Beast blood instead.

It’s not that they’re not willing to use the Species of the Ancient Times blood – there might be this reason, but it’s more because the energy contained in the Species of the Ancient Times blood is too intense and terrifying.

Ordinary children can’t even handle a full medicine bath, let alone simply dipping into it, causing unbearable pain all over the body.

If they want to bathe in Species of the Ancient Times’ blood for body tempering, it has strict requirements for the constitution of the bathers.

However, there aren’t as many restrictions in Liu Village.

All the inhabitants in the village, men, women, old and young, are all practicing the Body Tempering Scripture given by Jiang Hui. Each of them has physical strength like that of a ferocious beast, and their vigorous strength and blood can withstand the impact of Species’ blood.

“Chief Grandpa, I brought the people!” From afar, Dog Egg shouted.

“Alright, you naughty boy, you’ve worked hard. Come on, quickly line up, the medicine bath is about to start!” Old man Lin looked at the source of the sound and said with a smile.

“Can you make an exception today, seeing how I’ve been running errands?!” Hearing about the impending medicine bath, Dog Egg immediately became frightened and started trembling. His face scrunched up into a knot of fear. Although each medicine bath resulted in a significant increase in strength, the process was too painful. It felt as if the whole body was being pricked by needles and scraped by knives. Not many children could withstand it.

“Why not? In honor of Dog Egg’s running around today, let’s give Dog Egg an extra half hour!” Old man Lin smiled and replied.

Dog Egg wanted to protest, but he was immediately subdued by his mother who hurried over.

“Alright, it’s about time, everyone get in there!” Old man Lin waved his hand grandly, saying cheerfully.

Suddenly, a chorus of piercing cries rang out across the square, one after another….

After all this was done, Old man Lin turned his gaze towards the broadsword man, who had been waiting patiently for a long time.

“Young man, our village is vast, as far as the eye can see, it’s all the pure land of Liu Village, you can pick any spot and set up your home. The remaining land will also soon be part of the village.

If you don’t know how, I can arrange for someone to help, don’t be shy about it.

Once you’re here, we’re all family!

Old man Lin said, his voice full of strength and quite penetrating.

“Thank you, Clan Leader.” The broadsword man replied hurriedly, his eyes cast on the graying old man.

This man, who held a higher-appearance than any other, was the leader of the village protected by the deity.

The man is tall and muscular, almost two meters tall, his muscles rippled under the dim light like hard steel, he looked like an iron tower, full of incomparable explosive power.

Even though he was addressed as a grandparent by all the kids, he didn’t look old. Just some gray hair on the sides, probably in his forties, even less aged than the broadsword man.

“Clan Leader, we came a long way, traversing numerous mountains and rivers, admiring the divine nature of your village, we finally got here. Could you allow us to have an audience with the Lord Deity?”

The broadsword man said. The youngster had made it clear to him earlier that if he wanted to see the deity, he would need the village leader’s permission first.

“Young man, don’t be impatient. You have traveled a long way, endured all weathers and rested under stars. It is better to rest for now.

I’ll arrange temporary accommodation for you, have a good rest, relieve the hardship of the journey. There’s no hurry in building your own place!” “But rest assured, when the time is right, the deity will see you!”

Old man Lin smiled and said, neither agreeing nor refusing.

Even though the broadsword man was a little unwilling, having said so much, he didn’t know what else to say and simply nodded in agreement.

For the next period of time,

With the help of Old man Lin,

The broadsword man and a few young men built several simple stone houses in a valley.

in this time, others intending to join Liu Village also came one after another. Most of them were analogous to the broadsword man being capable warriors, along with a few elders and young men, totaling to about two thousand people. One day, as the broadsword man ran out of patience, word came from Old man Lin that he could go up the mountain to see the deity.

Everyone who came, old and young alike all heard this news.

The next morning, dawn broke.

A group of several thousand people thundered towards the top of the mountain.

The crowd had various looks, some were excited, some were nervous, and others had different emotions.

“Eighth Prince, what happens next depends on your ability to adapt on the fly. Before we left, his majesty had made it very clear that you must get the attention of the deity of Liu Village. If you fail, everyone in the Qiongji Palace, high and low, will be implicated, including your mother and her clan!”

In a corner of the crowd,

A man dressed in black suddenly grabbed the young man in front of him, and then leaned forward and spoke softly. His voice had a hint of shrillness, as though he was choking.

The man had a hawk-like nose and sharp eyes that resembled the eyes of an owl, not an easy person to get along with.

The young man he detained had rosy lips and white teeth, with an unmistakably dazzling aura surrounding him. Even though he was dressed plainly, he still looked like a fairy.

“I understand that, Eunuch Zhang, please be reassured, there is no need to constantly remind me!”

The young man responded quietly, his expression unchanged.

“Boom…”

As they were talking,

An ancient overwhelming wave of power came surging over, causing everyone’s hearts to throb.

in that moment, it was as if they were being scanned by a pair of vast and invisible heavenly eyes, all secrets being revealed under that gaze.

in particular, the black-clothed elder, whose heart gave a lurch, felt as if all the secrets within his heart were completely exposed to some supreme being….
