Qin Yulan saw Bai Yanlan's guilt and comforted her seriously for a while before sending the three of them out of the temple.

"The spiritual energy in the mortal world is thin and contains many impurities. If you don't have anything special to do, you should leave as soon as possible." Qin Yulan looked at the three little guys in front of him and patiently reminded them: "When you return to the immortal world, it's best to soak in a potion to cleanse your tendons and marrow and try to remove the impurities in your body."

The three of them nodded obediently. Bai Yanlan asked in a low voice: "Will you stay here in the future?"

"Of course!" Qin Yulan looked up at the foot of the mountain and answered very straightforwardly.

From the mountain temple, one can overlook the entire Danyang city. With the eyesight of a god-level cultivator, even without using divine sense, one can clearly see what the people passing by on the street are doing.

"Now, they are also my responsibility and concern."

Spending a long time with those simple people will soften even the coldest heart.

Bai Yanlan and the other two finally said goodbye reluctantly and walked down the mountain.

Behind him, Qin Yulan let her tears fall after closing the temple door, and sad sobs could not be restrained from overflowing from her mouth at this moment.

She is really a very gentle person. Even though she knew that her little beast would never come back, she still kept smiling in order to take care of Bai Yanlan's emotions, and only vented her emotions completely at this moment.

In comparison, Song Kuang and his friends were much more extroverted.

In order not to disturb their conversation, Song Kuang and Xu Jiayi had been holding back their tears and shed dry tears. Now they were sobbing so hard that even their voices were filled with tears.

After all, they are still young and have experienced little, so it is very easy for them to empathize with other people's stories.

If I put myself and Bai Yanlan in their shoes, it will be even easier to cry.

"Xiaobai, is Senior Qin's little beast your mother?" Qin Yulan had been vague in her words before and did not make it clear that Yan Lan had taken over someone else's body. Song Kuang could only guess the possibility from the fragmentary information.

Bai Yanlan shook her head, then thought about it and nodded.

The Yaoling Beast gave its body to him and also gave him a complete bloodline inheritance. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are his reborn parents.

Seeing her shaking her head and nodding, Song Kuang thought for a while and came up with the correct answer: "That's your father!"

Bai Yanlan:...Forget it, I won’t explain.

"Xiaobai, don't be too sad. You still have me as your father. I will definitely protect you in the future." Seeing that the two little girls around him were depressed and crying, Song Kuang made a joke to ease the atmosphere.

The result was two pairs of white eyes.

After crying silently for a while, Bai Yanlan finally calmed down a little, patted her face, and held back her tears: "I'm fine. Let's move quickly and leave here."

"That's right." Song Kuang picked up Bai Yanlan and put her on his shoulders again: "Let us also learn from our predecessors, accumulate merits along the way, and become a young hero who slays demons and defends the way, saving the people and rescuing them from danger."

Song Kuang waved his fist and spoke with such excitement that he didn't pay attention to the road. He missed a step and almost rolled down with Bai Yanlan.

Fortunately, Xu Jiayi was quick to reach out and hold him back: "Look at the road, young man, don't fall to your death before saving the people."

"Hehehe, this is a harmless little mistake that won't affect my heroic spirit."

As they chatted and laughed, the atmosphere became much better and the three of them walked to the foot of the mountain.

"Hurry up, hurry up, those behind you should catch up."

"Hmm, hum, hum~"

“Cluck, cluck, cluck~”

"Hey, be quiet, don't disturb the mountain goddess."

Following the noisy noise, Bai Yanlan and the other two went around to the back of the mountain and suddenly found a group of people heading up the mountain with a chicken in their left hand and a duck in their right hand, followed by two fat pigs.

Song Kuang curiously leaned over and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Oh, they are distinguished guests!" An uncle stopped and walked. He had heard the mountain goddess say that these three people were her distinguished guests, so they were naturally their distinguished guests as well and they had to show more enthusiasm.

"We were planning to drive some livestock to provide the giant snake with a snack."

"Give the giant snake... a snack?" Wasn't the giant snake an illusion? Why did it have to eat livestock? "Did the mountain goddess ask for that?"

"How can that be possible? We sent them to the mountain goddess before, but she never accepted them. We might as well raise some livestock and put them in the mountains so that the big snake can eat when it's hungry."

"You know, how much does a snake need to eat in a day to be full? The wild animals in the mountains are not enough. It must have to replenish its food from time to time, right?"

The uncle's words were recognized by everyone behind him with nods of approval.

Although the mountain goddess explained that it was enough for them to provide the power of faith, they did not believe it.

They don’t know what the power of faith is, but if this thing is really so useful, why would other gods be so indifferent to it?

The most likely possibility is that the Mountain Goddess didn't want them to spend money and deliberately deceived them.

Besides, the illusory power of faith is not as real as the meat in the stomach. So they simply sent some livestock to add to the big snake's meal.

Bai Yanlan tilted her head and looked at them: "The snake's body has stretched across several mountains. Aren't you afraid of such a big snake?"

"What are you afraid of?" The group of people laughed heartily. "The big snake is here to protect us, why would we be afraid of it?"

"You haven't seen it. A few years ago, some bandits saw that the people of Danyang City had become rich, so they wanted to come and rob them. As a result, when they arrived at the city gate, they saw the big head of the big snake lazily lying on the city gate, opening its mouth and waiting for them to come in."

"Those bandits, hahahaha, they were so scared that they ran away without even looking back."

"Yeah, yeah, I went to the city wall to watch the fun, and even touched the big snake several times, hahahaha."

When the people around heard this, they were immediately envious: "Oh, you've touched a big snake before, what was it like?"

"It's icy cool. When summer comes, it will be very comfortable to sleep next to it, haha."

"What's that?" Someone nearby immediately expressed disdain: "I accidentally broke my leg while collecting herbs in the mountains last month, and it was the big snake who personally carried me out."

"Not only did they send me to the city gate, they even prepared herbs to treat my broken leg. Look at my leg, it's fine now. Isn't the big snake very considerate?"

"Yes, yes, you are so lucky." The people around were envious and even planned in their minds whether they should go up the mountain and fake a fall.

The smiles on everyone's faces diluted Bai Yanlan's sadness in her heart. She smiled as well, raised her head, and looked towards the mountain temple where only a corner of the eaves was visible: "The mountain goddess is so kind!"

"Of course not!" Bai Yanlan's recognition of the Mountain Goddess made the smiles on those people's faces more genuine. "We are lucky to have the Mountain Goddess."

As long as they recognize the Mountain Goddess, they are good friends.

The uncle immediately reached out and stuffed a still-warm egg into Bai Yanlan's hand: "This chicken just laid it, it's very fresh, you need to nourish it well so that you can grow taller."

Bai Yanlan: ...Thank you.
