I will eventually become a god through sheer hard work.

After personally using the Serpent Slayer to pierce the Dragon God's body, she underwent a transformation from body to mind, and her mental will was no longer the same as before.

The elders and shamans who used to be so dignified and intimidating to her now seemed insignificant in her eyes.

“Renia…”

Dotia turned and stared blankly at her sister, her eyes filled with both relief and disappointment.

“Stubborn fool!” The shaman glared and took a few steps forward, bringing the torch close to the wooden platform covered in oil.

at this time.

"call out--"

A shrill sound of air being torn apart came from above, and a figure wrapped in lightning, like a god, fell like a meteor from the sky.

The figure fell rapidly, but just before it touched the ground, it stopped abruptly, its feet lightly touching the ground. This defied the laws of physics and was an operation that would make Newton turn in his grave.

This scene instantly left everyone present stunned.

Xue Jing, without any change in expression, reached out and extinguished the fire in the stunned old shaman's hand.

"呲-"

Amidst the hissing sound of the flames dying down, Xue Jing said calmly:

"What, Mr. Shaman, are you using this fire to light candles for a cake? What are you celebrating?"

The old shaman, who wasn't wearing simultaneous interpretation headsets, couldn't understand a word. He could only speak haltingly and stammeringly:

"King...your lord."

How is this possible?! He's still alive?!

And what about the Dragon God?

Could it be... impossible!

Xue Jing ignored him, leaped onto the high platform, and came to the witch sisters.

"Xue Jing!"

When Renya saw him, she was overwhelmed with emotion, her eyes welled up with tears, and her voice choked with emotion.

"You survived...that's wonderful..."

Then, a possibility that she still finds hard to believe came to mind.

"If you live... then the Dragon God..."

Xue Jing drew his sword and slashed the ropes binding the two women. He then took out simultaneous interpretation earpieces, put them in Renia's ears, tucked the stray hairs from her forehead behind her ears with his fingers, nodded, and smiled.

"Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life."

"Renia, with your help, I killed the Dragon God."

"Be proud, for you are the most legendary priestess in history."

Upon hearing this, Renia jumped up excitedly and hugged Xue Jing tightly, clinging to him and wailing:

"That's great...that's great, that's great, that's great!!"

"Sister... the Dragon God is dead, we survived, we are free!"

Upon hearing this, Dotia felt dizzy and could hardly believe it.

She had never met Xue Jing before, and was much more reserved by nature. She suppressed her excitement and spoke softly:

"Your Majesty...may I hug you?"

Xue Jing was slightly taken aback, but then nodded and smiled gently, "Okay."

Although she didn't have headphones and couldn't understand Xue Jing's words, seeing him nod, Dotia immediately stepped forward and, together with her sister, hugged Xue Jing, buried her head in his chest, and burst into tears.

Far more voluptuous than the barren Rainia, its astonishing softness made Xue Jing raise an eyebrow.

He gently patted the two sisters on the back, letting them cry and vent their emotions.

……

What happened next was quite simple.

After learning what the elders and shamans intended to do to the witch sisters, Xue Jing immediately struck them all with lightning, killing them all.

He displayed the thunderous power that only the Dragon God possessed, and upon learning that he had killed the Dragon God, he immediately transformed from the king of this country into the new god worshipped by this country.

Under his orders, the armed forces of this country—the patrols and guards—immediately declared their support for the priestess sisters as the undisputed supreme leaders of this country.

In fact, the Dragon God Priestess was theoretically the person with the highest status in this country, but the real power was in the hands of the Elders. Now she has simply regained the power that was rightfully hers.

Of course, she's no longer called the Dragon God Priestess; she's now known as the Thousand God Priestess, thanks to a casual remark by Xue Jing.

The 'Thousand Gods' refers to the mythical gods created by Xue Jing—the Faceless One and the Thousand-Faced Ruler.

Afterwards, the people of White Crow also came to this country. Under Xue Jing's leadership, they communicated with the priestess sisters and successfully persuaded this country to help White Crow establish an outpost base nearby.

In the future, White Raven will also engage in some mutually beneficial cooperation with this country.

Xue Jing also asked Lianye, who would be stationed here for a long time, to protect and take care of the priestess sisters.

After everything was done, it was already evening.

At the urging of the witch sisters, Xue Jing calculated that he still had time and agreed to rest in the city for one last night.

The next morning, at the city gate of this country.

"Well then, that's settled then. I'll be going now."

“I’m so glad to have met you, Renia, Dotia.”

Xue Jing stretched out his hands and placed them on the shoulders of the two sisters, speaking softly.

"in addition……"

He snapped his fingers, causing the Shadowflame Raven to fly over with its backpack and pull out the basketball-sized dragon egg.

"This is an egg left behind after the Dragon God died. It is said that it will hatch into a dragon that is very similar to the Dragon God... Renia, Dotia, you are the most legendary priestesses in history, and you should also have a 'Daruka' worthy of you."

"This egg is for you."

The two sisters exchanged a glance, and Renia reached out and took the dragon egg.

She didn't pay much attention to the dragon egg, but said with some disappointment, "Xue Jing... will you come again? Will we meet again?"

Xue Jing thought for a moment and said, "I probably won't come back. I'm an outsider, and this land restricts me. As for meeting... maybe it's possible, if you want to."

Just as people in the present world can enter the border region, people in the border region can also go to the present world.

Renia blinked and said happily, "That's good, I'll definitely come find you!"

Xue Jing laughed heartily: "Then I'll look forward to it."

Dotia cupped her hands together and placed them in front of the plump fruit, her eyes sparkling.

A blush rose to her face; she seemed to want to say something, but couldn't bring herself to speak, and simply looked at Xue Jing silently.

"So, goodbye."

Xue Jing avoided Dodia's affectionate gaze, smiled, dragon horns appeared on his forehead, lightning crackled around his body, and he soared into the sky, heading towards the exit of the border.

The shrine maiden sisters stood there for a long time, until the figure on the horizon could no longer be seen.

“Sister…” Renia whispered.

Upon hearing this, Dotia snapped out of her daze, her expression somewhat dazed.

“He’s already gone,” Renia reminded her.

Dotia murmured, "I know..."

Renia sighed: "Sister, if that's the case, then when he stayed last night, you should have..."

Dotia pursed her lips and shook her head, saying, "He's not from our world."

A look of disappointment and inferiority crossed her pretty face. "I'm not worthy..."

Renia sighed again.

Chapter 172 Bai Ya, the Unofficial Special Advisor, Returns to Maple City and Makes a Stunning Debut! (5K)

In the sky, Xue Jing took a tablet computer out of the backpack held by the Shadow Flame Crow beside him and turned it on.

A map appeared on the screen, with a red dot on it, which was the exit point of the boundary marked by the white crow's lotus leaf.

After flying for about half an hour according to the location indicated on the map, Xue Jing successfully arrived at the exit.

This is a small, unremarkable mound with a flag planted on it, a marker made by a white crow.

Xue Jing landed on the mound from the sky and then stepped forward.

Ripples appeared in the void, and the scene in front of him changed the next moment.

From a place of birdsong and fragrant flowers with pleasant temperatures, it has transformed into a modern world filled with black ash and temperatures so high that they distort the air.

"Come out, come out!"

As soon as he appeared, staff members wearing heat-resistant protective suits spotted him.

"Lord Jing!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Lord Jing!"

The staff members present immediately greeted him respectfully.

Xue Jing paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yes, you've all worked hard too."

A staff member immediately handed him a gas mask, which Xue Jing thanked and put on.

He then dusted off the black ash from his clothes and walked toward the large tent in the center of the camp.

"Lord Jing."

"Lord Jing, welcome back..."
