Mirror Lake.
Waves lapped against the lake shore.
"Look, what huge waves!"
“Mirror Lake has been calm for hundreds of years. What’s going on? Could it be a monster from the bottom of the lake causing trouble?”
"Stop looking, hurry home."
The villagers of Jinghu Village have all moved away from Jinghu.
The rolling waves crashed towards Ziyue, but a gentle breeze whistled out from her sleeves, shattering the waves.
"Senior brother!"
Ziyue gazed at Mirror Lake.
She believed her senior brother would be safe and sound.
Lake bottom.
The silver dragon looked down from its high position.
Her dragon roar stirred up waves.
Silver Dragon's golden eyes shone brightly, radiating a powerful aura. Creatures in the lake scattered and fled. The Mirror Lake Earth God, who was standing beside Qin Luo, trembled as well. "Grandma, don't get excited. This great immortal is just passing by."
Qin Luo remained calm and unaffected by the silver dragon's imposing aura. The dragon before him was not as domineering as he had imagined, but its entire body was covered in silver scales, making it quite beautiful.
"Just passing by?!"
"You must have been sent by the Imperial Observatory!"
The silver dragon's eyes were filled with hostility.
Qin Luo did not answer. He raised his hand to form a hand seal, and an array made of interwoven golden runes appeared in front of him.
"ban!"
In the blink of an eye.
Mirror Lake has returned to calm.
Qin Luo cast a spell to stop the water flow, and the water in Mirror Lake stopped flowing, even the silver dragon was unable to move.
The Earth God of Mirror Lake was shocked by Qin Luo's magic; his water control technique was even more powerful than that of the Dragon Clan.
Silver Dragon tried everything he could, but couldn't move. "Hehe, this lady isn't easily scared. Do whatever you want with me."
Even if trapped.
She remained haughty.
Qin Luo smiled kindly. "The trouble you're causing will frighten the villagers around here. I'm not here to suppress you, I just want to talk to you."
What do you want to talk about?
“I know you don’t want the children in the village to drown, but your presence frightens the people of Jinghu Village.”
"Hehe, this grandma won't care about their lives anymore." Silver Dragon pouted arrogantly.
Silver Dragon wanted to protect the children of Mirror Lake Village, but she was mistaken for a ferocious monster and was driven away.
Qin Luo knew she wasn't a bad person.
"untie!"
Qin Luo said softly.
The spell that had enveloped Mirror Lake disappeared.
Silver Dragon regained her freedom, and she snorted coldly, "I grew up in Mirror Lake, this is my home, I will not leave here, and I will not care about the people here in the future."
"As long as you don't cause trouble, I won't interfere with you."
Qin Luo knew the silver dragon wasn't bad, so he turned and left. After returning to the shore, Zi Yue's eyes lit up. "Senior brother, I knew you could handle the monster at the bottom of the lake."
"Immortal Master, have you driven away the monster at the bottom of the lake?" Chen Qingyu came closer to ask about the situation.
Qin Luo looked at Mirror Lake and said, "Although the monster in the lake is ugly, she is not bad. She came out to scare away the children in the village who were playing in the water because she was worried that they would drown."
"I see."
"We misunderstood her."
Chen Qingyu lowered her head in shame.
"Junior Sister, let's go."
"Uh-huh."
Qin Luo left Mirror Lake with Zi Yue.
Bubbles rose from the lake's surface, and the silver dragon hid beneath it. She gritted her teeth and said, "Hmph, you're the ugly one."
"Immortal Master, please pick more pears to eat on the way." Chen Qingyu's family didn't have anything valuable, just some fruit trees. Fortunately, the weather was favorable, and the fruit trees grew very well.
Okay.
Ziyue didn't stand on ceremony. She was agile and easily climbed the tree to pick pears. In order to take a couple more pears back, she even threw away all the pretty stones she had picked up at Mirror Lake.
Chen Qingyu stood at the village entrance and watched them leave, while the Earth God of Mirror Lake escorted them for ten miles.
Qin Luo knew that the Earth God of Mirror Lake was following behind, so he turned around and said with a smile, "Senior, there's no need to see me off."
The Earth God of Mirror Lake bowed deeply and said, "Great Immortal, please do not tell anyone else about the dragon in Mirror Lake."
Why?
"The Imperial Observatory has offered a hefty reward for anyone who can slay a dragon, and there are countless cultivators who want to hunt down dragons."
"no problem."
Qin Luo was not interested in the bounty.
"Senior, you are welcome to visit Longhu Temple when you have time. It is located at Luoxia Peak, the highest peak in the north."
"must."
The Earth God of Mirror Lake bowed respectfully, surprised to find such a powerful cultivator around him.
In his eyes, Qin Luo was a powerful being with extraordinary abilities, and befriending him would allow him to roam freely in the Purple Cloud Mountains.
Ziyue was carrying a lot of pears in her arms. She ate them as she walked, muttering, "Senior brother, were you talking to the Earth God just now?"
"That's right."
Qin Luo nodded.
What does the Earth God look like?
"A kind old man."
...
Back to Longhu Temple.
Ziyue hid the pears she picked from Mirror Lake in her bosom, afraid that her master would see them, and she walked very carefully.
"stop."
Zhang Fulong walked out of the main hall.
Why are you clutching your stomach?
"Master, my stomach hurts and I need to go to the toilet."
"Go."
Zhang Fulong shook his head.
Ziyue successfully brought the pear back to her room. She hid the pear in the cupboard, planning to take it out and eat it when she got hungry.
Stone pavilion of a Taoist temple.
Qin Luo and Zhang Fulong were drinking tea in the pavilion.
"Master, did I do anything wrong by bestowing the title of Mountain God upon Chenjiagou?" Qin Luo had heard that many forces were targeting the God Clan, and he wondered if this action would cause trouble.
Zhang Fulong nearly spat out the tea he was drinking. "You, kid, want to confer titles on gods?" He barely suppressed a laugh. "Confer titles on mountain gods? Whom are you going to confer as a mountain god?"
"Chen Chang'an."
Qin Luo answered truthfully, "He is Chen Xingzhou's son. My disciple used the magic in the book to appoint him as the mountain god."
