The Disrespectful

Is this guy the one?

As his gaze shifted towards the Divine Stone, Gari immediately spotted the old woman in the hall.

For him, knowing this woman had taken less than three short days... but for this time-worn old Chieftain, nearly sixty years had passed...

Unrelenting time had left too many marks on this woman's face. If Gari, upon arriving here, couldn't have discerned her soul at a glance, he might not have recognized her at all.

'Why are you still here?'

With the complete Eye of God, Li Xunsheng could see through almost everything... In an instant, he discovered that the old woman's body was already on the verge of collapse. If she hadn't been holding the Mysterious Iron Rod he gifted her, relying on the immense divine power within to barely sustain herself, the old Chieftain would have long since rotted away and turned to dust...

[Why do you linger in this place?]

A magnificent and majestic Divine Oracle directly entered the old woman's mind, causing the frail, elderly Chieftain to widen her eyes instantly.

Her Deity... had returned!

'Oh, most supreme Deity, I beg your forgiveness...'

As Li Xunsheng's first Believer, the old woman's body went limp and tears streamed down her face the moment she heard the Divine Oracle.

Trembling, she propped herself up with the Mysterious Iron Rod, knelt on both knees, and implored her Deity in an extremely humble manner.

'My Deity has not bestowed any divine miracles for far too long... My ignorant and foolish tribe members are increasingly losing their reverence for your blessings. Over the years, they have doubted your existence more and more, and have not even made Offerings on time, often delaying or forgetting...'

'But we have always been your Believers, your people... Please, for the sake of your humble Believers, do not hold it against those arrogant young ones...'

They had no spoken language, nor written script, yet their thoughts and logic were incredibly clear and distinct, allowing Li Xunsheng to easily feel that he wasn't communicating with uncivilized barbarians, but was instead having a heart-to-heart with a living soul.

Looking at the trembling old Chieftain, enduring immense pain, Li Xunsheng fell silent...

He saw what this old woman had experienced over the years.

Although this growing tribe had the seeds of civilization, they still adhered to barbaric rules as they had not truly formed a civilization.

Every Chieftain would face a challenge from the younger generation, and only the victor could take over the position of Chieftain and lead the tribe towards a brighter future.

Back then, when Gari first saw this woman, she should have lost the competition and died by the stream in regret.

However, because of his help, the once young woman had recovered her health and, eventually, wielding the Mysterious Iron Rod imbued with divine power, successfully obtained the position of Chieftain.

After that, his first devout Believer embarked on the path of evangelism.

This Believer had always been diligent and responsible, not only leading the entire tribe to become his Believers but also fighting on the front lines with the Strength granted by the Mysterious Iron Rod. Even when Gari descended last time, she was still the Chieftain and had not weakened due to old age.

However, mortals could not ultimately resist the erosion of time...

Not long after Li Xunsheng's last descent, the old woman's health had deteriorated, and she was soon defeated by the new generation nurtured by the Golden Fruit, falling from the position of Chieftain.

But she still held the Mysterious Iron Rod and walked on the front lines of evangelism, making a great contribution to the collection of Li Xunsheng's faith points.

Sorry, couldn't find the book title, you can try searching for the author, maybe they just changed their name!

Unfortunately, with the Deity's long period of neglect, the influence of the previous Divine Grace weakened, and the voices of doubt within the tribe grew louder, leading to even the Offerings to the Deity becoming increasingly perfunctory and careless.

Through the Eye of God, flipping through the old woman's past, Gari felt a mix of amusement and a surge of inexplicable anger...

This woman, for some unknown reason, had heard that a Pope must dedicate their entire being to the Deity. Thus, she had no children of her own and lived a miserable life in her old age and frailty.

Even worse, because the Deity's influence was weakening, the old woman who persisted in making Offerings was not favored by her tribe members and suffered much coldness and discrimination...

This barbaric tribe was ultimately a far cry from the 'civilization' Li Xunsheng had envisioned...

Even though this old woman had dedicated her entire life to the tribe, she received no preferential treatment in her later years. Instead, she faced coldness and discrimination everywhere, showing no trace of her former glory...

'Alright, no need to say more. Call your tribe members over.'

[No need for further words, summon you mortals to come and pay your respects.]

Flipping through the old woman's past, Li Xunsheng's mood was complex as he forcibly suppressed his anger...

He had anticipated that he couldn't always keep an eye on this place, leading to a decline in faith.

He had also prepared for the lack of Offerings and sacrifices.

Ultimately, none of these mattered.

After all, Gari, who was originally an atheist, never intended to truly become a Deity. He was just an ordinary person who inexplicably possessed the authority of a Deity, thus playing the role of a Deity to collect faith that could strengthen himself.

In the final analysis, he was a person, not an emotionless God. Becoming a God of nothingness, detached from all emotions and desires, was never what he wanted.

In his view, Offerings were merely a return for Divine Grace. He played the role of a Deity and bestowed blessings, people were grateful and offered their faith, and then paid a small amount of offerings in return. The deal was concluded.

After that, Li Xunsheng didn't care about their emotions.

However, he couldn't just let what happened to this old Chieftain slide!!!

Even setting aside the matter of faith and Divine Grace, the old Chieftain had dedicated her life to this tribe. When food was scarce, she was always on the front lines of the most dangerous hunts. After the Strength potatoes descended, she tirelessly cultivated, doing her utmost for her tribe members.

None of these could escape the scrutiny of the Eye of God.

She worked diligently, risked her life, and even suppressed her own nature, remaining alone. All these sacrifices were made to ensure a better future for the tribe.

Yet, facing such a dedicated old Chieftain, these young tribe members showed no respect or gratitude. Instead, they bullied her relentlessly as she grew old...

This was the only point Li Xunsheng could not accept!

His upbringing had always been like this.

You can choose not to revere the deities.

But to disrespect elders, disregard past kindness, bully the weak, and be ungrateful!

Then you can no longer be called human!!!
