Brunhilda and Li Yunmu observed everything. As the valkyrie of the Land of Ice, Brunhilda had seen countless battles, but she had never realized the influence of those battles on mortals. And even Li Yunmu didn’t understand it clearly. When he was on Earth, everyone’s goal had been to hunt the spirit beasts hidding in higher dimensions.
While dealing with flux beasts, even if some of them looked like humans, Li Yunmu had not been moved in the least. Even if a group of flux beasts was injured and killed, he would not feel emotional over that.
After all, flux beasts and humans had been fighting for a long time, and Li Yunmu knew it from the beginning.
And the sight before him right then was no different. Although the villagers were people of Lanlou, they weren’t descendents of gods. Their happy and blissful life under the protection of an ancient god had been ruined because of the fight over power of belief, leaving them destitute and homeless.
Upon seeing it, Li Yunmu only felt a little bit guilty that the mortals of the Ancient Lands did not have the protection of ancient gods because of him and would be reduced to the level of slaves sooner or later. After thinking about that, he resolved in his heart that after he obtained the treasure to remove the curse of dragon ladies, he would go and settle the matter in the Ancient Lands so that the mortals living under him could be at peace.


The sun had set by the time the villagers sorted everything out. Women and children brought out all sorts of ingredients to cook on the bonfire while the strong men played a supporting role at the side. The village recovered its original appearance, the only difference being that it seemed very cold and cheerless.
Yet the dead had already passed away while the living had to keep on living.
At night, the villagers had a bonfire banquet for Li Yunmu and Brunhilda, which continued for the whole night. Everyone only returned to their rooms after they were tired.
In the wooden house, Li Yunmu sat on a wooden chair and said to Chen Xiu that knelt in front of him,
Tell me all you know.

Chen Xiu raised his head and looked at Li Yunmu with a malevolent expression and said without any restraint,
You will regret this. Regardless of whether you are from the eastern domain or from the Land of Ice, you will certainly die after wrecking ancient god Asura’s plan, even if you are a god!

After he finished speaking, Chen Xiu began to laugh maniacally.

You are only a mortal. Do you really believe that Asura will take revenge for you?

Li Yunmu looked at the constantly laughing Chen Xiu while feeling that he was kind of retarded.
Even if he possessed a good bloodline, he was still a mortal. Only if he was a descendent of a great circle sage flux expert Asura might slightly frown upon hearing the news of his death and give the command to find his killer.
Chen Xiu looked at Li Yunmu’s completely calm expression with some surprise. After hearing his disdainful tone, he even felt that something was wrong. His brain began to move quickly, and he remembered the secret mission assigned to him by the clan.



If I was an ordinary mortal, then even if I was a descendent of ancient god Asura, nothing would’ve happened. But I have secret information on me passed to me by my clan. If I die, they will definitely try their utmost to find the killer.


You think that I will believe you? The Asure Clan doesn’t have anyone with higher strength that they would dispatch a mortal to finish an important mission?

Li Yunmu ridiculed his prisoner while feeling curious about the secret mission Chen Xiu had mentioned. He wanted to extract information about it from him.

You want to obtain information from me? No way, unless you can directly extract it from my brain. If you practice the soul path, then perhaps you might be able to investigate my soul, but unfortunately, you don’t.

Chen Xiu curled his lips to reveal a sinister smile and focused his gaze on Li Yunmu.
Only gods who practiced the soul path had the ability to investigate the soul. But the attack which he had received just a moment ago was sufficient to prove that Li Yunmu was a god who walked the path of destruction. As long as Chen Xiu remained strong-willed, he might scare Li Yunmu into letting him go.

Is this mortal speaking the truth?
Li Yunmu enquired with the system in his brain.
He suddenly realized that he had never seen or heard anything about soul searching, so he naturally had to enquire about it from the former True God.
[Yes, it is true. When a god appears in the world, they possess an attribute and that attribute determines their future path. For example, the master god Pangu of the Ancient Lands walks the path of strength, while Nuwa walked the path of nature.]
The system turned silent for a moment after saying that, then its next words were filled with disdain.


[The process for becoming a god isn’t very clear. You have also lagged behind. The gods who can search the soul are those belonging to the soul path. You walk the path of destruction, so even if you extract this mortal’s soul, you cannot investigate it. But luckily, you have me.]
In the wooden house, Brunhilda was sitting on the edge of her chair while looking at the incessantly hooting Chen Xiu. Soon, a frown appeared on her beautiful face. If the prisoner wasn’t useful, she would have slapped him to death long ago.

Come, if you possess the soul path necessary to investigate my soul. If you cannot, I urge you to quickly release me. Otherwise, ancient god Asura won’t let you go.

I forgot to tell you, ancient god Asura is in Asura City right now. You two are only gods, so unless you retreat, you will certainly be killed by ancient god Asura.
Chen Xiu kept on clamoring without stop.
Li Yunmu snapped back to reality and said with a calm smile,
Then I will give it a try to find the secret in your brain?

When he finished talking, he raised his hand in front of Chen Xiu. A black energy came out of the hollow of his palm, and threads of it twisted to form a black whirlpool. An enormous force of attraction burst forth from it.

Even if you use divine power to suppress me, I still won’t talk.

After he finished talking, Chen Xiu lowered his head and looked down. When did he began to float in the air? When he looked down again, he saw himself still kneeling firmly on the ground with a malevolent smile on his face. He raised his head and looked at Li Yunmu’s calm smile as well as the black whirlpool in his hand that was getting close to Chen Xiu’s body with each passing instant.

I also forgot to tell you that my method of searching your soul is rather special. If you enter this black whirlpool, I will know of all of your life. The price for it will be the disintegration of your soul. Even your opportunity for rebirth will be gone.



Chen Xiu’s eyes went wide as he stared at the black whirlpool getting increasingly closer to him. All the hairs on his body stood up from fear, and he became more and more afraid. He was convinced that the black energy emitted by the black whirlpool could crush his soul.

I will speak, I will speak!
 Chen Xiu wailed, and the next instant, he felt his soul return to his body. After recovering, he began to gasp for breath.
How is it possible? You are a god from the destruction path! How can you use this technique? I don’t believe you!
