Tales of Herding Gods

The gray fog of Fengdu filled the air, and in front of them was the sea of fog and the skeleton mountains. The Skeleton Mountains were situated in the Sea of fog, and on top of them were all skeletons. Some of them were still crawling around.

Qin Mu took out a fengdu gold coin and was about to call Daoist Ling Jing over to take a boat to cross the sea of fog when he was suddenly stunned.

In Eternal Peace Tribulation, Daoist Ling Jing’s soul had already dispersed.

This Daoist was a strong practitioner from village chief’s era and had a very stubborn temper. He had once challenged village chief and wanted to seize the title of Sword God.

Later on, when High Heavens invaded, he and the young Patriarch Wen Yuan intercepted the gods of high heavens and bought time for village chief and the rest. As a result, he died and his dao vanished, turning into a ghost in Fengdu.

King Yama gave him the identity of a ferryman and let him hold the Ferryman to extradite ghosts or strangers.

At that time, he was still worried about buying a house in Fengdu. He felt that if he worked for another thousand years, he would be able to buy a house in Fengdu.

When Eternal Peace Calamity erupted, Daoist Ling Jing was the first to jump out and save the people together with the cult masters of Heavenly Saint Cult. However, he only had his primordial spirit left, and his soul had dissipated in that calamity.

He didn’t leave behind any relics, so even if Qin Mu wanted to summon his soul and reconstruct it, he couldn’t do it.

In the fog ahead, the ferry came. The clothes of the ferryman on the ferry were tattered, and he looked very tall standing in the small boat. His tattered Cape Fluttered in the fog.

The boat leaned against the ferry, and Qin Mu boarded the small boat. The ferryman supported the boat and left for Fengdu.

Standing on the boat, Qin Mu couldn’t help thinking of the conversation he had with Daoist Ling Jing when Eternal Peace’s calamity erupted.

He said, “Daoist Ling Jing, you and Patriarch died for eternal peace to stop High Heavens, yet no one in eternal peace knows that you are the hero protecting them.”

At that time, Daoist Ling Jing had paddled the ship through the layers of skeleton mountains and said to him with a smile, “But I know that I’m a hero. I have to follow my heart and do things.”

Daoist Ling Jing had also said that the next time he came, the person on the ferry might not be him.

Qin Mu looked at the person on the ferry. That person wasn’t Ling Jing, but another Fengdu God and devil.

When the small boat reached the shore, Qin Mu paid the fare and jumped onto the shore. He walked past the boundary stele of the living realm of the dead and crossed the mountain ridge towards Fengdu.

There were all kinds of people in this world, all kinds of ways to live. There were all kinds of lives, some happy, some plain, some hard, and some suffering.

But no matter how good or bad their lives were, there would always be some people who would carry a heavy burden and even sacrifice their lives for them.

We shouldn’t laugh at their choices, but give them the respect they deserved.

The rules of the Great Dao of Fengdu tried to change Qin Mu’s corporeal body, turning him, a living being, into a skeleton. However, Qin Mu’s understanding of the Great Dao of Youdu was extremely profound, and his cultivation was incomparably vigorous, the rules of the Great Dao of Fengdu couldn’t change him in the slightest.

He continued to move forward, and when he looked over, he saw that Fengdu had become much broader. It wasn’t inferior to son of Heaven Yin’s underworld capital, which was vast and boundless. It was clear that many heavenly masters and Heavenly Kings from founding emperor era had gathered here, the construction of Fengdu wasn’t bad.

Qin Mu went over the mountains and saw numerous God cities appearing in front of him.

There were too many memories here, but the situation had changed greatly, making him feel like he had entered a foreign land.

He walked into King Qin City, and there were many gods and Devils on the streets. When they saw him, they were all stunned and looked at him in a daze.

Qin Mu had a smile on his face as he nodded to the founding emperor gods on both sides.

Everyone returned the smile.

Soon, the news of Qin Mu coming to Fengdu spread out. The bird-headed and human-bodied god Chi Xiu was the first to rush over. He landed in front of Qin Mu and greeted him. “Should I call you human Emperor Qin, or should I call you heavenly venerate mu?”

Qin Mu smiled. “It’s better to call you heavenly venerate Mu.”

God Chi Xiu bowed and led the way. “Heavenly venerate mu, please come in. Heavenly venerate, are you here to visit an old friend?”

“Chi Xiu, you are also an old friend of mine.”

Qin Mu smiled. “I’m indeed here to pay you a visit.”

God Chi Xiu tilted his head and said, “However, those old friends of yours don’t really want to see you. When Heavenly King Tian Shu heard that you had come, he hid in the wine tavern and didn’t dare to come out. When Heavenly King Yi Yue heard that you had arrived, he was so scared that his face turned pale. He hid at the lowest level of Fengdu. Heavenly King di Shi said that he was going to enter closed door meditation to comprehend immeasurable calamity scriptures, and the two heavenly masters in Martial combat didn’t dare to come out.”

He looked at Qin Mu and said, “Even the king of Hell doesn’t really want to see you. Heavenly venerate, do you know the reason?”

Qin Mu didn’t answer.

God Chi Xiu said, “It’s because we didn’t help during eternal peace calamity, so we feel guilty towards you. “Human heavenly venerate mu saved heavenly king Tian Shu and rescued heavenly king Tian Shu from Imperial Citadel Divine Knife, so we owe him a favor. “Human heavenly venerate mu revived Heavenly King Yi Yue, so we owe her a favor

“Heavenly venerate mu eradicated the forces of the Heavenly Court in the Buddhist world, so we owe heavenly king Yi Shi a favor. “Celestial Master Mu of the human race created the Heavenly River Divine Treasure. The warriors who saved the bull world could not become gods. He owes Martial Heaven Master a favor.”. “Celestial Master Mu also saved the people of Supreme Emperor Heaven. Saint woodcutter also feels that you owe him a favor.”

“Even King Yama was able to stabilize Fengdu because of you. Celestial Master You and Earth Count did not destroy Fengdu because of your face. They all felt ashamed of you.”

God Chi Xiu said, “You have done them a favor, so they didn’t dare to come to see you.”

Qin Mu smiled slightly and asked, “Then what about fisherman and Green Emperor? Fisherman heavenly master and Green Emperor Heavenly King have done me a favor, so they wouldn’t dare to come to see me.”

God Chi Xiu led him forward, “Green Emperor sent the Divine Dragon of Dragon Village to help you, but it’s actually helping Supreme Emperor Heaven. Supreme Emperor Heaven is a remnant of founding emperor, so it doesn’t count as helping you. “Yet you are helping Supreme Emperor Heaven, so he owes you. “It’s the same for fisherman heavenly teacher. When he helped you fish for the Sun and Moon in Sun Well and moon well, he was also helping the Sun Herder and Moon Herder under founding emperor. He wasn’t helping you, but he was also helping founding emperor. “They all felt guilty toward you, so they didn’t dare to see you.”

He continued, “Among founding emperor’s subordinates, only first ancestor human emperor Prince Qin Wu dared to help you in eternal peace calamity, but he no longer thinks of himself as a prince and grandson of founding emperor era.”

Qin Mu said, “He’s the human emperor of Eternal Peace, the founder of eternal peace era. Hall of human emperors is very prosperous now, and he opened it to teach disciples with the previous human emperors, making a great contribution to eternal peace.”

God Chi Xiu nodded. “So he’s the symbol of eternal peace. However, the people in Fengdu aren’t.”

Qin Mu was silent for a moment.

God Chi Xiu brought him to a winery in Fengdu and said, “The heavenly king of Underworld Capital, Tian Shu, is among them.”

Qin Mu walked in with big strides. When Tian Shu saw him, he immediately flipped over and hid under the table, not daring to show his head.

Qin Mu came to the table and sat down. He poured a cup of wine and raised it. “Heavenly King of Nether Capital, let me give you a toast.”

Tian Shu was helpless and could only crawl out from under the table. He raised his cup and the two of them drank it in one go.

Qin Mu smiled. “I’ve already been to carefree village and met founding emperor.”

Tian Shu was silent for a moment before asking in a hoarse voice, “How is he?”

“He walked out of carefree village to look for you guys, but he didn’t find you guys. Later on, he killed his way up to Heaven Court and fought against heavenly venerate clear heaven, heavenly venerate dawn, Heavenly Consort Qiang Heaven, and Heavenly Consort Yan. He almost split Heaven Court Open with a sword.”

When Heavenly King Tian Shu heard this, the blood in his heart surged. The liquor worm seemed to have drilled into his brain, and he couldn’t help lifting the lid of the wine pot and gulping it down. “He killed his way up to Heaven Court?”

Qin Mu nodded his head lightly and gestured for the ghost bartender to bring a few jars of wine to put on the table. “He killed his way up to heaven and stabbed heavenly venerate clear’s palm with his sword.”

Heavenly King Tian Shu slapped away the wine jar and laughed. “I knew he would do that! He’s cautious after drinking, but he’s extremely bold when he doesn’t drink! He’s always looked down on heavenly venerate clear!”

The two of them hugged the wine jar and touched it, then raised their heads to drink.

Heavenly King Tian Shu drank until his tears flowed down, and he choked with sobs. “Has he always been very calm? You’ve never seen him panic?”

Qin Mu put down the wine jar and said, “He’s always been very creative, as if he’s always been well-prepared without any changes in his emotions. “But when you come into contact with him, you can feel the wild fire in his heart, the raging flames.”

Heavenly King Tian Shu could not help but pick up the wine jar again and gulp it down. He chuckled and said, “He is such a person. This is how he can easily convince others. It is especially safe to be by his side!”
