I'll Quit Being a God

Chapter 104: Lianshan Jing

Lu Heng's words were modest, but the water god in the river dared not be rude.

She hung a small sign on the neck of the little Gu eagle, carefully told a lot of things to it, and then watched the little Gu eagle fly to the boat where Lu Heng was.

Then there was a respectful thank-you salute, and the river god reluctantly left.

Although she wanted to stay with her child, she, as a river god, could not leave the river at will. What's more, it's hard to imagine that such a master was willing to take care of her child. How dare she stay and bother him more?

If the master needed her to do something, he would call her at that time.

With such a thought, along with reluctance and worry for the child and hope for the future, the river god disappeared from the sight of the people.

The little Gu Eagle flew around the boat for a while, and finally landed in front of Lu Heng carefully. He kowtowed to Lu Heng again like a chicken pecking rice.

Lu Heng laughed and said, "You don't have to kneel before me. As long as you don't do evil things, if you can cultivate and do more good deeds in the future, you will live up to my acceptance today."

The little Gu eagle was puzzled by Lu Heng's words, but he knew that he could not offend the man in white, so he nodded repeatedly to show that he had remembered.

At the bend of the river, it calmed down temporarily.

The little Gu eagle was lively and soon lost his sense of restraint, flying around happily.

However, Lu Heng was aloof and Xiao Ai's temperament was cold. In the end, the Gu eagle only played with Huo Feng.

Although Huo Feng had lost all his cultivation base and had a broken Tao heart, he had always been optimistic. Soon he played happily with the little Gu eagle.

In the cabin, the red-haired woman had been silently watching the development of everything but said nothing.

After the river god had left and Huo Feng had played with the little Gu eagle for a long time, she took a deep breath and walked out of the cabin.

Lu Heng had been paying attention to her reaction, so he smiled when he saw the woman coming out.

"Do you finally feel stuffy in the cabin and want to come out for a change?"

The red-haired woman sighed and looked at the little Gu eagle.

The little Gu eagle, named Gu Yan, was squatting in front of Huo Feng and constantly stretching his neck to pick up the crumbs thrown by Huo Feng.

This stupid scene looked very interesting.

The red-haired woman sighed again and saluted Lu Heng.

"The Wolf God, you should have guessed my identity," said the red-haired woman with a wry smile.

"Well," Lu Heng nodded and said, "You didn't deliberately hide it. I naturally guessed."

The red-haired woman sighed and said, "Yes, I am the current emperor of the Fire Pass Country, Lianshan Jing."

"……?!" Lu Heng's eyes widened slightly.

He suspected that he had misheard.

The current emperor of the Fire Pass Country… Lianshan Jing?

Isn't the emperor of the Fire Pass Country a man?

Lu Heng was slightly shocked and looked at the red-haired woman in front of him again.

Lu Heng's astonished reaction also surprised Lianshan Jing.

She looked at the Wolf God in front of her, hesitated for several seconds, and suddenly realized something.

"Did Gong Shu Jie say anything to you?" Lianshan Jing's eyes narrowed in vain. "I remember that Gong Shu Jie said that he had mentioned my affairs to the Wolf God…"

Lu Heng gave a dry cough and said, "Yes, yes, he told me that the current emperor is a wise king and the person he admires the most."

"…" Lianshan Jing raised her eyebrows slightly, but she didn't continue to struggle with this matter. Instead, she silently remembered it in her heart and planned to go back to the Ten Thousand Needle City again in the future.

But now, there are more important things to deal with.

She looked at Lu Heng and the little Gu Eagle behind Lu Heng and said, "As you know, I am the daughter of the late emperor. If Gu Yan is really the son of the late emperor, he is my brother…"

Speaking of this, Lianshan Jing looked complicated, but she still saluted Lu Heng deeply and said.

"In any case, it is my father's child, Lianshan Jing thanks you for your help to him."

"This little Gu Yan was lucky enough to follow you and listen to your teachings."

"I'll remember your kindness. If you have orders in the future, Lianshan Jing can do anything for you as long as I can."

Lianshan Jing's expression was quite solemn.

It was a heavy promise considering her identity.

Although she didn't think that the Wolf God would really give her any orders in the future, after he helped her brother. She could not pretend to be deaf and dumb, and the due etiquette must be done.

When Lu Heng saw the woman's solemn appearance, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "You are willing to do anything for me, and the river god is also willing to do anything for me… Ha… I earned a lot."

Lu Heng's self-mockery made Lianshan Jing shake her head. "Don't make fun of me."

She arched her hand to Lu Heng again and said, "Sorry for bothering you these days. Now I have something to do, I think it's time to leave now."

"When you arrive at Fushan city, you can go directly into the city. I will manage everything in advance for you."

After that, Lianshan Jing stood on the bow of the boat, saluted Lu Heng deeply again, and then jumped directly into the river.

The movement was so fast that Lu Heng just raised his hand, and the woman had already disappeared from his vision.

Above the bow, Lu Heng was quite speechless.

He looked at the empty cabin in front of him, and then at the slowly rippling water waves in the river. With a wry smile, he said.

"The emperor clearly collected the boat fare, but she left half way, leaving us in the river… Alas… Brother Huo, is there a complaint channel for the ferry business?"

"Ah? Complaint channel?" Huo Feng was stupefied for a moment and was puzzled. "What does the 'complaint channel' mean?"

"Cough… Nothing," Lu Heng waved his hand and said, "I'm joking. Don't mind me. However, the emperor has left half way now, but there is no one to ferry the boat… Alas… It seems that we are going to have to walk south."

Huo Feng smiled and said, "In fact, I can also ferry. Leave it to me."

Lu Heng was somewhat surprised. "Oh, Brother Huo, can you ferry?"

Huo Feng nodded and said, "The Yun sect disciples travel all over the world, contact all kinds of people and things, and often learn many interesting skills. For example, I know a little about ferrying."

Lu Heng laughed and said, "If that is the case, Brother Huo, I can only accept your kindness."
