1086 Dragon Mountain Sanren (1/2)
Shang Pinying looked at the dragon qilin. His injuries became worse as he stood up with a bitter smile. With snow-like white hair and an old voice, he asked, ”Sir, may I know your honored name?”
Son of Heaven Yin perked up his ears and prepared to write down the dragon qilin's real name so that he could kill him.
The dragon qilin smiled and said, ”I'm a secluded mountain person. I comprehended the meteorological signs and all sorts of algebra. I call myself Dragon Mountain Sanren.”
”Dragon Mountain Sanren? Thanks for the lesson!”
Shang Pinying bowed before running away haggardly. His voice came as if he was crying and ranting. ”You're still a youth, you're still a youth! The title of number one heavenly master belongs to you now…”
The dragon qilin found it hard to hide his pride as he thought, 'I'm now famous in the past. Yep. But I can't leave my name behind. If I did, this Son of Heaven Yin would definitely kill me brutally. However, the name Dragon Mountain Sanren is very loud and clear.'
He was proud, though he hated how he had no tail in his human form to shake and show off.
That was his only regret.
Qin Mu used too much consciousness guiding him to defeat the celestial heavens' armies and thus fainted once more.
The Black Tortoise Celestial Palace remained safe. Instead of putting it away, Prince You Ming allowed the Glassy Sky Pagoda to continue protecting the celestial palace. He went around treating the wounded and burying the dead.
He got the dragon qilin, Yan'er, and Son of Heaven Yin to settle down at the Jade Capital temporarily. He treated them like precious guests.
After a while, Prince You Ming finished his duties, and Son of Heaven Yin recovered. Divine King Gong Yun also finally quelled her chaotic consciousness and thus had an easier time controlling her new body.
She also fulfilled her promise of helping to treat Qin Mu's consciousness injuries after her own consciousness recovered.
”Da Hong's powerful consciousness heavily injured you in the battle because your consciousness cultivation was inferior, not because your consciousness divine art was inferior.”
Divine King Gong Yun observed Qin Mu's consciousness while healing him. She shuddered as she said, perplexed, ”Only masters of creation can have such attainments in consciousness. No Postcelestial lifeforms can reach this level. Celestial Venerable Mu, your origin intrigues me.”
After her treatment, Qin Mu woke up and looked better. He said, ”I'm considered half master of creation.”
Divine King Gong Yun's gaze flashed. ”Masters of creation are extinct here. Only some fled to the void to establish a new world. The Grand Emperor's body died. Mine too. Without our corporeal bodies, we are no longer masters of creation. In this universe, you are probably the only half master of creation. Your origin is truly weird. Can you talk about it in detail?”
Instead of answering directly, Qin Mu said, ”One day in the future, I'll go to the celestial heavens from the Primordial Realm. We will meet there again, and you'll understand everything.”
Divine King Gong Yun changed the topic and said, ”I separate my feuds and favors clearly. You saved me in the ancestral court and again in the celestial heavens. Thus, you saved me twice. This treatment is me repaying you for the first favor. I'll repay you a second time, and then all will be clear.”
Qin Mu said with gratitude, ”Your consciousness is strong. You could have learned my secrets by using your consciousness, yet you didn't. Do the divine kings of the primordial era have gentlemen codes of honor too?”
”Who said only men can be gentlemen?”
Gong Yun coldly smiled and said, ”I hate how men like you talk about such honor and loyalty, yet you lot steal and find prostitutes in a hypocritical manner. It's disgusting!”
Qin Mu felt guilty.
”I wasn't talking about you. I was unlucky to meet the Grand Emperor and Celestial Emperor Tai Chu.”
Gong Yun healed him and said, ”I'm leaving now. You used too much of your consciousness, so although you've recovered, your consciousness cultivation hasn't yet. Cultivate hard, and don't fight in such an intense manner until you've fully recovered. You might never recover if you do.”
Qin Mu nodded and said, ”What do you intend to do, Mister Gong?”
”You called me Mister Gong?”
