Chapter 361: Chapter 170 New World, Mortal Heart World_3

For half a month, she had been lying in bed alone, enduring pain silently, with no one to talk to.

Qi Yuan sighed, realizing that even the wealthy had their own troubles.

"It’s fine, I’m used to it." Jiang Lingsu seemed indifferent to the pain, presenting a relaxed demeanor, "Senior Brother, how did your trip to the Eastern World Talent Ranking go?"

"Thankfully, I was able to reach the Eastern World Talent Ranking."

"Really?" Jiang Lingsu’s face lit up with surprise, "As expected of my Senior Brother!"

Being able to enter the Eastern World Talent Ranking meant true recognition on the Eastern World stage.

Even when the First Senior Brother visits the Jiang Family, he should receive serious treatment from such a large family.

If it were the previous First Senior Brother, visiting the Jiang Family probably wouldn’t have even allowed him past the front door.

"Lately, has anything important happened in the Shenguang sect or in the business world?" Qi Yuan asked.

"If we’re talking about important matters, there are two." Upon mentioning this, Jiang Lingsu looked at Qi Yuan with a strange expression, "The Bloody Alliance sent two people from the Zifu sect to our Shenguang sect, and they executed the elder of the Red Sword Sect."

Jiang Lingsu originally thought that the Bloody Sword God was an alias given by her Senior Brother.

However, she later discovered that the Bloody Sword God was simply too powerful.

The two could not possibly be the same person.

Now, the Bloody Alliance, which was founded by the Bloody Sword God, had sent people to the Shenguang Sect. When Senior Brother passed on the message that two of his subordinates were coming, she couldn’t help but let her imagination run wild.

But when she thought of how her First Senior Brother had just spoken to her so casually, without that monstrous aura, and how he even reacted normally to her occasional fits of anger, she thought that she was overthinking it.

But there was definitely a deep connection between her First Senior Brother and the Bloody Sword God.

Could it be that the Bloody Sword God was the Master?

Only this could make a better explanation.

Of course, she still harbored a little doubt that her First Senior Brother might be the Bloody Sword God.

"What’s the other important matter?" Qi Yuan inquired.

He was already aware of the Bloody Alliance’s affairs.

"Mo-yu gate has undergone an internal struggle. The Shen family suddenly revolted, suppressed the Ji family, and slaughtered all the members of the Ji family. The current Mo-yu gate is now headed by the Shen family." Jiang Lingsu said seriously.

Qi Yuan was astonished upon hearing this.

He had been thinking about dealing with those from the Ji family in the Mo-yu gate upon his return.

Now, without his interference, the enemies from the Mo-yu gate are gone?

The world is truly unpredictable, unpredictable as intestine.

"First Senior Brother, this is..." Jiang Lingsu finally started to closely observe Qi Jianjun, her eyes filled with curiosity.

She seemed to vaguely recall the little girl referring to her First Senior Brother as ’Daddy’ earlier.

"This is my daughter, Qi Jianjun."

"Daughter?" Jiang Lingsu’s eyes widened, "Senior Brother, if I remember correctly, you’re not even twenty-years-old yet. How do you have such an adult daughter?"

"I have a game. She is my daughter in the game." Qi Yuan explained.

Jiang Lingsu was dumbfounded.

She remembered that some people in her clan also play games and acknowledge others as their brothers, sisters, and even parents and daughters for fun.

But Qi Jianjun was so young... What was going on?

"Okay, Junior Sister, since you’re awake, I will head back. I need to continue playing my game.

I haven’t played in too long; I’m craving it." Qi Yuan said, then hurriedly left.

In the room, only a puzzled Jiang Lingsu remained.

"Could it be, that little girl is an orphan adopted by First Senior Brother?

How pitiful." Jiang Lingsu’s maternal instincts kicked in.

She got up, but her body was stiff from not moving for a long time.

However, being a Foundation Establishment cultivator, she quickly shook off the discomfort.

Suddenly, she remembered something and looked quizzical.

"Where is the talisman I placed at the door?"

Before every seclusion for cultivation, she would place talismans around her for her protection.

Now it was gone.

"How did First Senior Brother bypass my talisman?" Jiang Lingsu wondered, her face filled with confusion.

...

Village of the Mortal Heart.

The Greenwater Village.

The lean and weak villagers returned, their faces carrying serious injuries.

The village head, Yu Lei, was a little old man with a hunched back. His pants were rolled up to his knees, revealing his long, reed-like legs.

"We lost the village war. What a humiliation!"

A chubby man said with a mournful face, showing extreme disappointment.

"The Stone Family Village has no martial arts ethics. They are actually worshiping a new god!" A man, who looked like a scholar, spoke with disdain in his voice about the Stone Family Village’s worship of a new god.

Mentioning the new god, the faces of the people in the crowd were all not looking too well.

Their villages needed to offer sacrifices to the gods in order to ensure smooth weather and good harvests.

Greenwater Village has been worshiping the Foxtail Grass God for decades, but there has been no response from the deity.

According to the high priest Shen Tu, the Foxtail Grass God was probably starved to death.

It sounded absurd, but it was also quite normal.

After all, Greenwater Village was so poor that they had nothing to offer the Foxtail Grass God.

"Without the blessings of the gods, we would stand no chance against the Stone Family Village!" a man said.

The overall strength of Greenwater Village was above that of the Stone Family Village.

However, Stone Family Village had a new god who could bless its villagers, which meant that the strength of Stone Family Village significantly surpassed that of Greenwater Village.

This time, in the fight for the water source, Greenwater Village was heavily devastated.

"Even if the Foxtail Grass God blesses us, we won’t be able to beat the Stone Family Village. Their new god is too formidable!"

Upon talking about the new god, all the villagers showed fear.

"So, should we also start worshipping a new god?" a villager asked tentatively.

"No!" The village head Yu Lei, who had been silent the entire time, spoke up. "No matter what happens, we people of Greenwater Village will never worship a new god. Never!"

The crowd fell silent.

They understood why the village head had such a big reaction.

The difference between the new gods and the old gods was that the sacrifices required by the new gods were human!

The new god of Stone Family Village demanded a child as sacrifice every month.

This was something that people of Greenwater Village could never accept.

"Moreover, we are the descendants of the ancient race, how could we possibly worship a new god?" Yu Lei said.

Hearing the ancient race, the villagers’ eyes revealed a sense of pride.

The ancient race had always been a defiant one.

In the past, when Heaven was unfair, the ancient god of the ancient race dared to challenge the Heavens.

Now, in the era of the uprising of the new gods, how could they submit to a new god and live ignobly?

"We, the ancient race, dare to challenge the gods. Despite our decline, we must always keep our heads held high!"

"Daring to challenge the Heavens, daring to redress the injustice of the world, the ancient race can never be ridiculed!"

"Whimper whimper I’m hungry, give me a steamed corn bread, Dog-Egg!"

"You have a pure ancient race bloodline, yet you are begging for corn bread from me. Do you not feel ashamed?"
