The mountain pass outside the town was already in complete chaos.

The armored soldiers of the Bilin Kingdom advanced step by step in a line of spears, while the scattered martial artists pushed and shoved each other. The sounds of weapons being drawn, shouts, and screams mingled together, and dust filled the air.

The various figures who originally went into the mountains to hunt the auspicious beasts are now trapped like turtles in a jar, blocked at the mountain pass by the army, unable to advance or retreat.

At the edge of the crowd, Murong Jing frowned slightly as he surveyed the chaos before him. His subordinate whispered, "Your Highness, the town is in such disarray that we can't find a place to rest. While there's still a gap in the army's formation, shall we leave?"

Murong Jing nodded slightly upon hearing this: "Yes, let's go. We've already spent enough time in Bilin Kingdom, it's time to return to Yunyan Kingdom."

As Murong Jing spoke, he turned back to look at the deep mountains behind him, his eyes filled with a complex mix of determination. He seemed to want to say something, but in the end, it turned into a helpless sigh.

The men, facing the soldiers who came to arrest them, shouted loudly, "Young Master Murong of Yunyan Kingdom is here! How dare you block our way? Get out of our way! If you harm our prince, can Bilin Kingdom bear the consequences?"

"Yunyan Kingdom..."

Upon hearing this, a general on the opposite side was taken aback. He looked up and, although he couldn't discern whether the young master was genuine or not, he immediately noticed the Changfeng Escort Agency emblem on the chests of these people.

That's a top-tier company that can handle international escort missions; its background is renowned throughout the world, and few people are unaware of it.

He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately dared not take the risk, and immediately waved his hand: "Make way, let them pass."

Upon hearing the noise, the soldiers cleared a path, and Murong Jing and his party quickly crossed it, disappearing at the end of the official road in a moment.

On the other hand, the conflict was much more violent.

A cold glint flashed from Chi Lan's large scythe, and the two Bilin Kingdom soldiers who blocked her way immediately collapsed to the ground with muffled groans. Her personal guards followed closely behind, tearing a bloody gash through the army formation.

"Walk!"

Chi Lan snatched a horse and immediately galloped away. The others followed suit, but some succeeded and some failed.

Chi Lan ignored his subordinates who had failed to break through the encirclement and instead pondered the operation with a sense of melancholy.

Clearly, the mission to capture the auspicious beast White Deer in Bilin Kingdom has failed, and has even drawn the attention of the Bilin Kingdom's army. Based on Chi Lan's understanding of the Red King's personality, she will definitely be severely scolded when she returns.

Chi Lan felt a headache coming on at the thought of this.

But who could have imagined that the auspicious white deer would possess such extraordinary abilities?

The overwhelming vines, like a divine tribute from all trees, left her feeling utterly helpless just thinking about them.

"It's a pity. If it were an open plain, I would be confident in surrounding and capturing it alive. But in this kind of terrain, deep in the mountains and dense forests, it's too difficult to catch the auspicious white deer."

Chi Lan sighed inwardly, then pondered. Given the Red King's temperament, once he learned that this auspicious beast, the white deer, possessed such abilities, he would most likely not give up easily and would persistently send people over. However, by then, he probably wouldn't have enough manpower.

"Perhaps the border between Bilin Kingdom and my Chi Kingdom will be disrupted then. Oh well, we'll see when the time comes." Chi Lan snapped out of her thoughts, cracked her whip again, and quickly disappeared from sight.

Murong Jing and Chi Lan's groups escaped one after the other, but the remaining martial artists were not so lucky.

The Bilin Kingdom's army closed in, and with a forest of spears, they pressed forward. In less than half an hour, nearly half of them were pinned to the ground and bound tightly.

A burly man with a full beard was being held down in the mud by two soldiers, struggling and cursing, "I'm the vice leader of the Black Tiger Gang! You dare touch me? Wait until my Black Tiger Gang brothers come and make you regret it!"

A series of footsteps came from the side, neither hurried nor slow.

Lin Qin, dressed in a tight-fitting outfit with blood still stained on the sword at her waist, stopped in front of the big man, her eyes as cold as ice.

"The Black Tiger Gang?"

Lin Qin's tone was flat, revealing no emotion.

"Starting tomorrow, the Black Tiger Gang will be the only criminal gang to be eradicated throughout the entire Bilin Kingdom."

Before he could finish speaking, a flash of cold light appeared.

The burly man's angry curses stopped abruptly as his head rolled to the ground, splattering blood all over the dust.

Lin Qin turned around, carrying the severed head, and looked at the martial artists who were still putting up a stubborn resistance. Her clear voice echoed throughout the arena: "The auspicious beast, the white deer, is a divinely bestowed auspicious creature by the King of my Bilin Kingdom. By royal decree, anyone who dares to touch this auspicious beast shall be punished as a traitor and executed without mercy."

The field fell silent for a moment.

Many martial arts practitioners turned pale upon seeing the severed head in Lin Qin's hand.

Gangs that usually terrorize villages and towns are no match for the real state apparatus. Many threw down their weapons and knelt down to surrender, while some ruthless individuals, seeing the situation was turning against them, risked being stabbed and escaped over the mountain in the chaos.

This highly publicized power struggle ultimately ended with half of the participants imprisoned and some fleeing for their lives.

But the impact of this matter has only just begun to spread.

First, within a few days, the saying "The auspicious white deer has driven away all the heroes in the deep mountains" spread throughout the streets and alleys of the entire Bilin Kingdom.

If many people didn't believe the survivors' accounts after the Blackrock incident, dismissing them as mere rural rumors, then this time, with over a hundred eyewitnesses surviving and offering similar accounts, it's impossible not to believe them.

The news that the auspicious white deer could not only walk on water but also command plants and trees and fight against hundreds of enemies quickly crossed the border and spread to neighboring countries.

Some people were thrilled to hear this, feeling that if they could obtain such an auspicious omen, their strength would greatly increase and the country's fortunes would prosper.

Some people were filled with awe upon hearing this, feeling that it was a divine gift from heaven and should not be taken lightly.

Those who witnessed the protagonist wading through the water to save people during the flood were the most emotional.

They were already grateful for Qi Ji's kindness, and now that they heard so many people had gone into the mountains to hunt him down, they felt both heartbroken and angry.

What a wonderful celestial deer! It has saved so many lives, so why should it be captured by those people?

Many people pray every day that the auspicious beast will not be captured and will stay safely in the mountains.

... ... ...

Deep in the mountains, the wind carries the sound of pine trees across the hillsides and along the streams.

Qi Ji lowered his head and nibbled on the grass, his snow-white hooves treading on the soft mud. He occasionally flicked his tail. Five days had passed since the massacre, and he hadn't encountered anyone else during that time, enjoying a peaceful life in the mountains.

Just then, a familiar, crisp sound rang out in my mind without warning.

Congratulations on obtaining Legendary Spirit Points! Legendary Spirit Points +3

[Current Legendary Spirit Points: 21/30]

Qi Ji's chewing motion immediately stopped, and his two deer ears stood up abruptly.

"I... I've gained another Legendary Spirit Point?!"

Qi Ji was stunned for a while before he reacted.

Unsurprisingly, these three legendary spiritual points were likely brought about by the recent manhunt.

According to the rules of the Spirit Pearl system, only genuine "positive recognition" can be transformed into legendary Spirit Points.

Those who personally participated in the capture of Qi Ji should only have fear, resentment, or even resentment and fear towards him. These are all completely negative emotions. How could they possibly have positive emotions?

To be honest, Qi Ji never imagined that what happened before would allow him to obtain legendary spiritual points.

"Strange thing..."

Qi Ji muttered to himself, "Could it be that if I beat them into submission, they'll develop awe and worship? That can't be right."

Qi Ji's guess was mostly correct.

Those who personally experienced his power of "All Trees Paying Homage" and escaped death mostly felt only fear towards him. Some even gave up the idea of ​​continuing to search for Qi Ji and then capturing him, saying that they never wanted to set foot in that mountain range again in their lives.

Of course, some people still haven't given up on Qi Ji.

For example, in a guesthouse in a small town, there's a two-and-a-half-meter-tall muscular guy eating and drinking to his heart's content...
