Chapter 370 Combination of God and Man, Medusa Demigod (23)

At the same time, at the land temple in Gaocun Town.

This temple was originally built by the first female barbarian, and it was not dedicated to any local deity or mountain god.

Or rather, this was merely a nominal "land temple," and the true guarantee of favorable weather, peace, and stability in Gao Village was the first female barbarian.

However, ever since the first female barbarian died resisting the Houtian clan.

Xiao'e, personally chosen by him as his successor, was enshrined in this local temple as the image of the first female barbarian.

This original land temple was thus renamed "Nüman Temple".

Today, Xiao'e's prestige has far surpassed that of the former barbarian woman, truly putting Gaocun Town on the fast track of rapid development.

Therefore, whenever a thorny problem arises in Gaocun Town, everyone will immediately think of Xiao'e.

In a social system with a population of over ten thousand and no specific organizational structure, this sustained influence comes purely from prestige and trust.

"Even for me, there are some problems that I cannot solve."

Holding the baby gently in her arms, Xiao'e murmured with a hint of distress.

Now, Xiao'e has grown into a young woman in her twenties, and her every word and action exudes an inexplicable sense of authority.

Perhaps it was to better fit the identity of a shaman...

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

Xiao'e always wore that green gauze dress, and rarely changed it regardless of the season.

In fact, as a coming-of-age gift from Li Boyang to Xiao'e, this green gauze dress was itself a treasure.

Besides its dust-free properties.

The main function of the green gauze robe is to gather different kinds of vital energy to assist Xiao'e in various forms of cultivation.

In a sense, Xiao'e was carrying with her a set of automated [Spirit Gathering Array].

"So, you shouldn't have taken care of this child in the first place."

With a soft laugh, a second-generation female barbarian, as beautiful as a fairy, appeared on Xiao'e's shoulder.

As one of the many incarnations of the second-generation female barbarian, this female barbarian resides permanently in Gaocun Town.

Whenever Xiao'e encounters a problem she can't solve, this female barbarian will take the initiative to appear and help her.

"He is of mixed race and has three eyes..."

"Even if you help her solve her identity problem, she is destined not to live long."

She flew to the baby on her own initiative, her words both innocent and cruel.

Because this baby was not only a three-eyed baby, but its lower body was also a jet-black snake tail.

Even at the ends of the hair that hadn't fully grown in, you could vaguely see the hideous mouths of snakes.

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

Even in the present-day Hundred Mountains, such a freak is an extremely rare hybrid.

I have to mention this here.

Since Baidishan gradually began to communicate with the outside world, many outsiders have come to Baidishan one after another.

Especially after "Wu Yi Shoots the Sky", countless refugees were forced to come to these mountains and rivers.

In this process, conflict, coexistence, and integration are naturally inevitable.

As a result, many mixed-race children were born.

In the vast majority of cases, mixed-race children only appear in the union of gods and mortals.

After all, while reproductive isolation is effective for most species, it obviously has little effect on gods.

However, the fact that the baby in Xiao'e's arms could be mixed with blood to such an extent is still a bit too outrageous.

It inherited its mortal mother's three-eyed lineage, while also possessing serpentine characteristics from its father's bloodline...

To be honest, this situation is extremely rare.

“If she only inherited her father’s bloodline, it wouldn’t be difficult for her to live as a demigod.”

"But the key issue is that she also inherited the bloodline of the Huaijiang witch from a thousand years ago." "The conflict between two completely different yet equally powerful bloodlines will only lead to her premature death."

When the woman turned back to look at Xiao'e again, she found that Xiao'e's eyes still shone with perseverance and faith.

"That's why she asked me for help, stubbornly wanting to live."

It was as if this was confirming Xiao'e's words.

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

Despite her pale complexion due to lack of blood...

Although the snake hair on his head had completely flattened...

But the yearning for life and the tenacious will to survive in a baby's eyes are enough to inspire anyone.

"You should know that there is only one person who can save her in these hundreds of mountains."

After a brief silence, the woman finally adopted a more serious attitude.

“I don’t care who her father is, and I don’t care where you got this child from…”

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

“But you are now at a critical juncture in your transformation from human to god. If you leave Gao Village at this time, all your efforts will be in vain.”

Although Li Boyang had already popularized the Way of Heaven and Man.

But not everyone in this world is willing to take this path.

Xiao'e, who could never let go of her worldly desires and calmly cultivate herself, was one of them.

Because she had too many things on her mind, it was impossible for her to calm down and cultivate for a long time. Therefore, she could only follow the traditional path of transforming from an innate deity into a god.

"I want to become a god so that I can save people."

"If I were to abandon my original intention of saving people just because I am about to become a god, I would despise myself forever."

The scene of my first meeting with Li Boyang flashed through my mind.

A slight smile appeared on Xiao'e's lips, and the light in her eyes could not be concealed.

She may never achieve the same greatness as Li Boyang in her lifetime, but she also has her own principles.

"Ugh!"

She let out a deep sigh, a look of mixed feelings—whether relief or regret—flashing across her face.

“There’s no need to go that far. I have a suitable person who can take this child to the prophet.”

As the woman uttered those words, a familiar figure slowly appeared at the doorway.

His height of nearly three meters made him appear exceptionally robust.

His most distinctive feature is his large, drooping ears.

The hands, feet, and joints are fitted with metal parts that faintly gleam with a sharp, cold light.

"E'tu?"

Xiao'e immediately recognized the other person's identity and exclaimed in surprise.

"Hehe, long time no see, Xiao'e."

He waved and greeted Xiao'e, and E'tu showed a bright smile that he hadn't seen in a long time.

Those arms, reaching past the knees, appeared so robust in the glow of the setting sun.

"When did you come back?"

With barely concealed surprise, Xiao'e carefully examined the rabbit at that moment.

Compared to E'tu a few years ago, although he hasn't changed much in terms of physique, he inexplicably exudes an aura of someone who has been through many battles.

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