I Come to Teach You Cultivation

Chapter 370: Chapter 8: Union of Divine Being and Serpent-Haired Demigod (2/3)

At the same time, at the Earth God Temple of Gaotun Village.

This place was originally a temple established by the First Generation Nüman, and what was worshipped there wasn’t any Earth or Mountain God.

Or rather, it was just a "land temple" in name, and what truly ensured Gaotun Village’s favorable weather, peace, and stability was the First Generation Nüman.

However, since the First Generation Nüman died resisting the Heaven-Howling Clan.

Xiao’e, personally chosen by her as the successor, began worshipping the image of the First Generation Nüman in this Earth God Temple.

This original Earth God Temple was thus renamed to "Nvman Temple."

To this day, Xiao’e’s reputation has long surpassed that of the original Nüman, truly putting Gaotun Village on a path of rapid development.

So whenever a thorny problem arises in Gaotun Village, people will immediately think of Xiao’e.

This is purely the continuous influence brought by reputation and trust in a society with a population of over ten thousand and without a specific organizational structure.

"Even I cannot solve some problems."

Gently holding the baby in her arms, Xiao’e murmured with a slight hint of distress.

Nowadays, Xiao’e has grown into a young woman in her twenties, and every word and deed carries a certain inexplicable air of authority.

Perhaps it was to better fit the identity of a Witch Priest...

Or maybe she simply liked the gift Li Boyang gave her...

Xiao’e wore the same green gauze dress all year round, seldom changing it regardless of the season.

In fact, this green gauze dress, given by Li Boyang as a coming-of-age gift, is itself a Magical Treasure.

Besides its dust-repelling attribute.

The greatest function of the green gauze dress is to gather different Primordial Qi, assisting Xiao’e in various cultivations.

In a sense, Xiao’e carries a set of automated Spirit Gathering Array with her at all times.

"So, you shouldn’t have gotten involved with this child back then."

With a light laugh, a Second Generation Nüman, resembling a fairy, appeared on Xiao’e’s shoulder.

As one of the many incarnations of the Second Generation Nüman, this Nüman is a resident of Gaotun Village.

Whenever Xiao’e encounters problems she can’t solve, this Nüman will appear to assist her.

"Both mixed-blood and born with three eyes..."

"Even if you helped her resolve her identity issue, she’s destined not to live long."

Flying to the front of the baby, the Nüman’s words were innocent yet cruel.

Because not only is this baby a three-eyed one, but the lower half of her body is also a pitch-black snake tail.

Even the still-growing tips of her hair subtly revealed fierce snake mouths.

Snake hair, snake tail, and three eyes...

Such a monstrosity is rare among the mixed-bloods even in the present-day Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

It’s necessary to mention here.

Since the Hundred Lands Mountain Range gradually started interacting with the outside world, many outsiders have continuously arrived in these mountains.

Especially after "Wu Yi Shoots the Sky," countless refugees were forced to seek asylum in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

In this process, conflicts, cohabitation, and integration are inevitable.

So naturally, many mixed-bloods were born.

In most cases, mixed-bloods are only born from the union of Gods and mortals.

After all, while reproductive isolation is effective for ordinary species, it clearly has little effect on Gods.

However, the mixed-blood baby in Xiao’e’s arms reaching this degree is somewhat outrageous.

She inherits the three-eyed lineage from her mortal mother and simultaneously has the serpentine traits of her paternal lineage...

Frankly, such a case is extremely rare.

"If she only inherited her father’s lineage, living on as a Demigod wouldn’t be too difficult."

"But the critical issue is she also inherited the remnants of the Huai River Witch’s bloodline from a millennium ago."

"The conflict of these two distinct yet equally powerful lineages will only lead to her early death."

When the Nüman turned back to look at Xiao’e again, she found that Xiao’e’s eyes still sparkled with persistence and belief.

"That’s why she asked for my help, striving to live on stubbornly."

As if to verify Xiao’e’s words.

The weak baby tightly gripped her finger, and her previously closed eyes slowly opened.

Though her face was pale from lack of blood...

Though the snake hair on her head had completely wilted...

The baby’s eyes held such a yearning for life, a strong will to survive, enough to move anyone.

"You should know that in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, only one person can save her."

After a brief silence, the Nüman finally showed a somewhat serious demeanor.

"I don’t care who her father is, and I don’t care where you brought this child from..."

"If you still want to save her, you must find Li Boyang."

"But you are currently in a critical period of transformation from human to God. If you leave Gaotun Village now, all your efforts will have been for naught."

Although Li Boyang has already popularized the Path of Celestial and Human.

Not everyone in this world is willing to walk this path.

Xiao’e, who could never let go of her earthly affections and calmly cultivate, is one of them.

Because she cares about too many things, it’s impossible for her to calm her mind for long-term cultivation, so she can only take the traditional path of Innate Divine transformation into a God.

"I want to become a God precisely to save people."

"If I give up the original intention of saving people just because I am about to become a God, I would never be able to respect myself."

Scenes of her first meeting with Li Boyang flashed through her mind.

Xiao’e’s lips slightly curved into a smile, and the light in her eyes couldn’t be hidden.

Perhaps she could never achieve the greatness of Li Boyang, but she had her own persistence.

"Sigh!"

With a deep sigh, a flicker of emotion, whether of comfort or regret, flashed across the Nüman’s face.

"It doesn’t have to be to that extent, I have a suitable person who can take this child to find the Prophet."

As the Nüman spoke these words, a familiar figure slowly appeared at the door.

His nearly three-meter height appeared exceptionally brawny.

His most prominent feature is the long ears hanging down on either side.

The joints of his hands and feet had metallic components, faintly emitting a sharp glint.

"Er Tu?"

Recognizing the identity of the man at first glance, Xiao’e exclaimed immediately.

"Heh, long time no see, Xiao’e."

Waving and greeting Xiao’e, Er Tu, after a long time, showed a radiant smile.

Those broad arms reaching below his knees appeared robust against the afterglow of the setting sun.

"When did you return?"

Unable to hide her surprise, Xiao’e seriously examined Er Tu at this moment.

Compared to several years ago, though Er Tu hasn’t changed much in physique, he now seems to have a certain weathered presence.

"Me? I just got back not long ago."
