Many Thanks to the Mountain God for Saving My Life!

Before Yuanshi, a peak Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, these ordinary Mountain Spirits and Wild Monsters were ants too weak even to truss a chicken!

Besides, this was the Primordial World, where the strong devoured the weak. When the strong killed the weak, then killed was killed.

The Magic Power came swiftly, reaching the monsters in the blink of an eye.

Just then, the Magic Power froze solid, forcibly freezing in midair.

Yuanshi could not help but frown at the sight.

The monsters were stunned for a moment when they saw this.

Tongtian had originally intended to stop Yuanshi, but now, it seemed there was no need.

"Yuanshi! You are truly outrageous!" Qin Yun's cold voice rang out from within the temple, every word crystal clear to all present.

"Mountain... Mountain God..." one monster cried.

Then, the Magic Power frozen in midair suddenly loosened and shot toward Yuanshi.

It was incredibly fast. In virtually an instant, Yuanshi had no time to dodge before the Magic Power slammed heavily into him.

This Magic Power was far more powerful than the one Yuanshi had launched earlier.

The Magic Power struck Yuanshi hard, sending him flying several meters away. His body crashed heavily into the temple wall. Fortunately, the temple was protected by an array; otherwise, the wall would certainly have been smashed through.

Yuanshi was sent flying several meters, crashing heavily into the wall. He involuntarily spat out a mouthful of blood.

"This is what you fired yourself. Now I'm giving it back to you!" Qin Yun said coldly, his voice ringing clearly through the temple.

"Mountain... Mountain God!!" The monsters gazed at the temple and could not help crying out the words "Mountain God."

"Mountain God!"

"Thank you, Mountain God, for saving our lives!"

"Thank you, Mountain God, for saving our lives!"

As they spoke, the monsters knelt again and kowtowed toward the wooden tablet on the offering table.

The Qingyi Mountain God had saved them twice in a row. They were deeply, deeply grateful in their hearts!

"Mountain God, thank you for saving us again!"

"Mountain God, that Daoist is utterly hateful! He insulted you so terribly, and insulted us as well. When we tried to reason with him, he even wanted to beat us to death..."

"That's right! That Daoist is truly vicious!"

"Mountain God, if you had not stepped in to save us, we would surely have been beaten to death by him..."

"Mountain God, thank you for saving us!!"

The monsters kept kowtowing and offering their thanks.

Qin Yun looked at them but said nothing.

"Who exactly are you? Why won't you show yourself?" Yuanshi glared at the temple and snarled viciously.

"I am the Qingyi Mountain God worshipped in this temple!" Qin Yun replied coldly.

Hearing Qin Yun say this, the monsters were overjoyed—ecstatic beyond measure!

"Mountain God, it really is you!"

These monsters often came here to burn incense, but most of them had never seen Qin Yun, nor had they heard his voice... They had not even been sure whether the voice just now belonged to the Qingyi Mountain God.

Now that this voice had said he was the Qingyi Mountain God, then the one who had saved them was naturally the Qingyi Mountain God of this temple!

"If you have the guts, come out!" Yuanshi snarled.

Yuanshi was now beside himself with rage, his eyes glaring furiously at the temple.

"You Daoist! Haven't our Mountain God beaten the fear into you yet? You still dare demand that our Mountain God come out?" one monster said mockingly as he looked at Yuanshi.

"Exactly! You tried to strike us twice, and both times our Mountain God suppressed you. Do you really think you can defeat our Mountain God?" another monster said.

"You Daoist! If you have no ability, then don't come making trouble at our Mountain God Temple!"

With the Qingyi Mountain God here, the monsters were no longer afraid of Yuanshi.

Yuanshi glared viciously at the monsters. "All of you, shut up!"

"Hah!" one monster scoffed coldly. "Who do you think you are? Just because you tell us to shut up, we have to?"

"That's right! What right do you have to tell us to shut up?"

Qin Yun looked at them and said, "You should leave first."

If they remained here and continued provoking Yuanshi's fury, Yuanshi would likely be even less willing to let them go.

Qin Yun could protect them for a time, but he could not protect them forever.

So he told them to leave first.

Hearing Qin Yun's words, the monsters looked toward the tablet on the offering table.

"Mountain God..." the monsters called.

"Leave first. I will handle matters here myself," Qin Yun said.

Hearing this, the spirits glanced at the memorial tablets on the offering table again, pondered for themselves, then nodded as well.

"Many thanks, Mountain God!"

"Then we'll be leaving first."

With that, they bowed to the Mountain God, rose, and departed.

Yuanshi was, after all, a peak Primordial Unity Golden Immortal. These spirits did not dare linger for long, and quickly left.

After the spirits had gone, only the Three Pure Ones remained within the temple.

"Mountain God..." Tongtian called.

"Tongtian..." Qin Yun looked at Tongtian as well.

A hundred years...

Tongtian had come to the temple once more.

Who knew how he had spent those hundred years...

In any case, for Qin Yun, who had transmigrated here, a hundred years truly was a long time. Back on Blue Star, whether one could even live to be a hundred was a question.

Yet here, a hundred years had passed just like that...

Qin Yun had not changed at all, still a young man.

Tongtian had not changed either, still a young man.

Hearing Tongtian call out to Qin Yun, Yuanshi looked toward Tongtian, and several blades seemed to slip unconsciously into his gaze.

Even though Tongtian was his third brother, at a time like this, Tongtian calling out to Qin Yun... this...

In any event, Yuanshi was extremely displeased.

Yuanshi could not help but snort coldly. "Tongtian, what exactly is your relationship with this Mountain God?"

The two of them seemed to be exchanging flirtatious glances, and the sight made Yuanshi deeply unhappy!

Qin Yun frowned and said, "Yuanshi, you act so presumptuously in my temple. It is only right that I teach you a lesson!"

Yuanshi's expression remained icy, his entire body radiating a chilling fury.

Tongtian said, "Second Brother, you truly should not have acted like that."

At those words, Yuanshi's rage blazed even hotter. He stared at Tongtian, the fury in his eyes seeming ready to burst forth. "Tongtian! What did you say?"

Now, he called Tongtian by name rather than calling him Third Brother.

"Second Brother..." Laozi spoke at this moment. He too felt that Yuanshi had gone a little too far.

Yuanshi ignored Laozi and continued staring at Tongtian. "I am your second brother! What is he? What the hell is he?"

What Yuanshi meant was: you help him, yet you will not help me!

Qin Yun frowned and said, "Tongtian, why is your second brother so ill-mannered?"

Hearing Qin Yun say this, Yuanshi was furious beyond measure. He wanted nothing more than to kill Qin Yun right now. Gritting his teeth, he glared at the temple in blazing rage, wishing he could slap Qin Yun to death at once.
