Everyone a dragon

One day later, in Li Household Village, at the Mountain God Reservoir.

As Li Jingshu pondered, she unconsciously played with the flowing water in the reservoir.

It wasn't until Chi Fou couldn't bear the oppressive silence any longer that she quietly surfaced from the water.

"Such a big thing has happened, aren't you going to take charge and manage the situation?"

Gazing at the brightly lit Li Household Village not far away, Chiru's voice revealed a hint of helplessness.

Although Li Household Village is still called "Li Household Village" today, it has actually become a large city with a population of one million.

Wide roads crisscross the entire city...

The neatly arranged tree belts complement the moat...

Everywhere you look, there is a modern urban feel, yet also a rustic, Savage Wilderness atmosphere.

Of course, due to the expansion of the land by the [Mystic Garden Barrier], Li Household Village has not developed any truly tall buildings. Even the tallest building is covered by the canopy of towering trees that are over a hundred years old.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this modernization process, which is so different from that of cities on Earth, that the city's land area is so exaggerated.

However, for Li Household Village, where everyone is a cultivator, this distance is nothing at all.

Whether it's flying, burrowing underground, or simply running...

If they wanted to, they could cross the entire city in less than fifteen minutes.

However, in most cases, Mountain Folk are not allowed to do this.

Because this violates traffic and safety regulations, it will result in fines and confinement, and in necessary cases, even being sent to the Hundred Lands Mountain Range. Therefore, in case of any emergency, the Mountain Folk can take special transportation, which is not much slower than flying or escaping directly. Most importantly, regardless of the type of transportation, it can travel across cities.

From Li Household Village to Gao Village Town, or even to other more distant places, those modes of transportation are far more comfortable than the Mountain Folk trying to travel by air and land. "It was just a matter of time."

Li Jingshu also turned her head to look down at Li Household Village and answered calmly.

"The fact that a project like the ' Cloudtop Heavenly Palace,' which was destined to disrupt the existing Zhoutian Star System, could hold out until the ' Gouchen Heavenly Palace ' was born before things went wrong is already far beyond my expectations."

To be honest, if it weren't for the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, who proposed this "Cloudtop Heavenly Palace" project, they would have been torn to pieces by the Star Gods in the sky long ago. It's only because the Dao Ancestor is alive now, and the Hundred Lands Mountain Range are the Dao Ancestor's Daoist temple, that the Star Gods don't dare to directly overturn the table.

Even so, after the [Gouchen Heavenly Palace] ascended into the sky, the Star Gods who sensed its potential could not help but secretly make their move.

"But you can't keep hiding here forever!"

He walked slowly to Li Jingshu's side, Chi Fou Daoist robe on his body began to swirl gently.

The moisture on her body surface evaporated rapidly, and a light mist surrounded Chi Fou, making her look like a fairy in a lake. "Hiding from me won't solve the problem; it'll only cause me trouble."

Softly complaining, Chiru, though a few years younger than Li Jingshu, was much more mature mentally.

After all, besides being the water goddess appointed by the Dao Ancestor, she was also the queen of the Human-Faced Fish.

"I was just trying to get some peace and quiet, how did I cause you any trouble?"

Rolling her eyes in annoyance, Li Jingshu, though over a hundred years old, still retained her domineering and unruly personality.

"Hmph, you haven't caused me any trouble, but that old ox has come up the mountain to look for me several times already."

"If I hadn't stopped you, do you think you'd still be calmly playing in the water right now?"

The "old ox" mentioned by Chi Fou naturally refers to the Single Horn Si.

Although the Single Horn Si was nominally Li Boyang's mount, Li Boyang had ridden it only a handful of times.

Most of the time, the Single Horn Si is regarded as the village god of Li Household Village, a kind old ox that has watched generations of children grow up.

In Chi Fou's memory, it was rare to see Single Horn Si so agitated.

"Sigh, that old ox just loves to worry about nothing!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jingshu could no longer maintain her previous self-centered attitude.

If you really want to count, Li Jingshu was practically spoiled by the Single Horn Si; heaven knows how many times he covered for her.

Li Jingshu has caused so much trouble since she was a child, and it was almost always the Single Horn Si who quietly cleaned up her messes.

"I don't think it's Old Niu worrying unnecessarily, but rather that you're making it too obvious."

With a casual wave of his hand, Chi Fou instantly reflected the image of the Li Household Village Ancestral Temple onto the shimmering water.

Inside the ancestral temple, the Nüshi was pacing anxiously back and forth, while Gouchen seemed to be deep in thought.

Beside them, the retired village chief stroked his long beard, his slightly narrowed eyes filled with nothing but smiles. The old village chief is now over two hundred years old.

Even if one eats the Peach of Immortality, the vital energy consumed in the first half of one's life cannot be fully replenished.

Li Boyang once suggested that either the old village chief should abandon his physical body and completely transform into a mountain god or Land God of this mountain range, or he should continue to take more advanced Elixir of Immortality or longevity pills to achieve true immortality.

However, the old village chief rejected Li Boyang's suggestion without hesitation.

In the old village chief's own words, he had lived enough and seen too much in his life, and had no ambition to become a god or live forever.

In the days to come, I will be content to simply observe the lives and growth of the younger generation.

"If you really don't want to take over the duties of village chief, and even want the old village chief to continue living..."

"I'll teach you a way: go to the Yin World and get two spoonfuls of ' Meng Po's Soup,' mix it with the elixir, and secretly feed it to the old village chief."

"I guarantee that after he drinks it, he will regain his youthful spirit and age."

Hearing Chi Fou's obviously terrible idea, Li Jingshu didn't immediately object. Instead, she rolled her eyes, seemingly intrigued. "Wait... you're not really planning to do that, are you? I was just joking!"

Noticing Li Jingshu's micro-expression, Chi Fou's face immediately changed drastically.

"Be careful, Great Arbiter of Fate will find out and put you in solitary confinement!"

Instead of directly answering Chi Fou's question, Li Jingshu simply chuckled.

"Hehe, anyway, this idea was yours..."

Before Chi Fou could continue speaking, Li Jingshu decisively changed the subject.

"I let this incident escalate, not for the reasons you're guessing."

"The intervention of the Star Gods in the formation of the ' Cloudtop Heavenly Palace ' was inevitable; those currently intervening are merely pawns." "To catch the true Star Gods hiding behind the scenes, we must have some patience."

"It's just like fishing; you can only catch a big fish if you cast your bait first."

"In my words, this tactic is called 'luring the snake out of its hole,' and it's especially effective against those greedy and short-sighted fools."
