The Legend of the Shepherd God: Ten Thousand Paths Bookstore, Starting with an Ancient Holy Body

"If it were truly my disciple who killed and stole the treasure, why wasn't it you, you little devil, lying dead on the ground?"

The elder at the head of the group spoke in a chilling voice, laced with savagery, as he roared, "In my opinion, it was clearly you, you little brat from the Demonic Sect, who discovered the treasures of my disciples and, driven by greed, went berserk and killed them!"

"You're talking nonsense!"

Qin Mu was furious.

He felt that these people were completely unreasonable.

Just because they're some kind of "righteous" people, does that give them the right to slander us?

"Mu'er, there are too many beasts in this world who wear human skin. Many times, you can't treat someone who looks like a human being just because they do!

Granny Si sneered and said, "Take the Five Elders of Lijiang, for example, who are famous throughout the southern border; they are all hypocrites!"

"Since you don't believe the truth and insist on causing us trouble, then stay in the Great Ruins!"

"Arrogant!"

The second of the Five Elders of Lijiang spoke arrogantly: "These mere rats from the Demonic Sect dare to be so arrogant? They're truly courting death!"

All five of them were powerful individuals who had broken through the barrier between Heaven and Man and unlocked the divine treasures of Heaven and Man.

The Five Elements Demon Refining Array, which the five of them performed together, is unparalleled in the world.

Now, dealing with these remnants of the demonic cult hiding in the Great Ruins is a piece of cake.

Granny Si remained calm and said, "Mu'er, you go first, I'll deal with them!"

"Mother-in-law!"

Qin Mu looked at the other person with some concern.

"Don't worry, those old bastards can't do anything to me!"

Granny Si said arrogantly, "On the contrary, having you by my side means I have to take care of you and can't use my full strength. It's getting dark, you must get back to the village as soon as possible!"

"good!"

Upon hearing these words, Qin Mu responded and turned to run away into the distance.

Just as one of the Five Elders of Lijiang was about to give chase, Granny Si stopped him.

She exuded a powerful aura befitting the Celestial Realm, and slowly spoke: "Your opponent is me. If you don't kill me, none of you will leave here today!"

Although she, like the Five Elders of Lijiang, was a powerful figure in the Celestial and Divine Realm.

However, her combat strength is at the top level among the Celestials.

If she uses underhanded methods, even a powerful expert at the Life and Death Realm could be killed by her!

"Kill her first, then we can search for the little devil!"

The eldest of the Five Elders of Lijiang spoke coldly, "If we can follow that little devil to their lair, I will surely wipe out all the remnants of the Demonic Sect and avenge my disciples and nephews!"

What he didn't know was that Qin Mu and Granny Si were the two weakest people in the Remnant Village.

If they really went to the village of the disabled and elderly, they probably wouldn't even know how they died.

……

"My mother-in-law has been harassed by five wicked old men. I need to get back as soon as possible and find the village chief and the others!"

Just as Granny Si was fighting with the Five Elders of Lijiang, Qin Mu mustered all his strength and ran quickly out of the forest.

As he ran, Qin Mu suddenly stopped.

He thought to himself, "I was chasing those punks, and I've already gone quite a distance off course."

"It takes at least ten miles of mountain road to get from here to the village of disabled elderly, but it's only halfway to the senior's bookstore."

"I should go to the bookstore to find a senior practitioner. With their cultivation level, saving Grandma should be a piece of cake."

Thinking of this, Qin Mu immediately changed direction and headed towards Wandao Bookstore.

After running for a while, Qin Mu finally arrived at the shop and barged inside.

"Senior! Senior!"

Qin Mu leaned over the counter, his face filled with anxiety, and cried out, "Please help me, please save my mother-in-law! I'll do anything to repay you!"

"Don't worry!"

Ye Hao lay on the recliner, his eyes still closed, and said calmly, "Your mother-in-law is formidable; those five old men are no match for her!"

"Senior, do you know what's happening outside?"

Qin Mu was taken aback upon hearing this.

Because he hadn't told Ye Hao what had happened, yet the other party knew.

As expected of a senior, you are truly amazing.

Ye Hao declared arrogantly, "If I want to know something, there's nothing in the world I don't know!"

Despite his impressive words, he was actually just using the bookstore owner's authority.

Anyone who visits the bookstore and looks at a book will be marked by the bookstore.

The bookstore owner, by virtue of their privileges, can observe the bookstore's customers at any time.

Of course, the bookstore owner couldn't observe more private moments like taking a bath, having a wedding night, or using the toilet.

"Senior, you're amazing!"

Qin Mu gave a thumbs-up in praise.

Suddenly, he noticed the jade pendant around his neck, his expression immediately changed, and he hurriedly asked Ye Hao, "Senior, do you know where I came from? Are my parents still alive?"

"You were born in Youdu, but your background is beyond your current knowledge; you are too weak."

Ye Hao replied, "Your parents are still alive, but their situation is not very good."

"Senior, can you tell me where they are?"

Qin Mu asked anxiously.

"You're too weak right now. Even if you knew, there's nothing you could do; it would only cause you more trouble!"

Ye Hao shook his head and said, "Hurry up and improve your cultivation. Once your cultivation is higher, you'll be qualified to know."

"Is your cultivation level insufficient?"

Qin Mu nodded and said, "I will work hard in my cultivation."

He glanced at the bookshelf next to him.

If you want to improve your cultivation level quickly, you can read books here and gain access to the worlds within those books!

However, he was still worried about Granny Si and had no interest in reading.

"Thank you, senior!"

Qin Mu said, "I'm a little worried about my mother-in-law, I'll go back to see her now!"

After saying that, he turned and walked out of the bookstore, returning along the same route.

As they walked, Qin Mu suddenly saw Granny Si and quickly went over to her.

"Grandma, are you alright?"

Although Ye Hao had told him that nothing would happen, Qin Mu was still very worried.

Granny Si chuckled and said, "It's alright, those few good-for-nothings can't hurt me!"

As she spoke, she couldn't help but complain, "Didn't I tell you to go back first? Why did you come back again? If I hadn't won the fight, wouldn't you have died today?"

Qin Mu explained, "My senior told me that my mother-in-law would be alright, so I came here."

"Senior? What senior?"

Grandma Si looked puzzled.

"Grandma, I met a mysterious senior today and obtained the Ancient Sacred Body from him!"

Qin Mu slowly said, "If it weren't for the Ancient Sacred Body, I might have died at the hands of those little bastards today."

"Ancient Sacred Body?"

Grandma Si asked with a puzzled look, "What kind of constitution is that? Aren't you supposed to have an invincible physique?"

In her understanding, there are only four spiritual entities in the world: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.

She was born with the spirit of the White Tiger.

As for the Overlord Body, that was what the village chief said.

But now this little guy Qin Mu is actually talking about his Ancient Sacred Body again.

Qin Mu glanced at the sky and noticed that it was getting darker and darker.

Before long, the light will be completely swallowed by darkness.

"Grandma, it's getting dark soon, let's hurry, I'll talk to you as we walk!"

As Qin Mu ran forward, he slowly began to recount the events: "Here's what happened. Today I was at Yongjiang..."
