I'll Quit Being a God
chapter-47

Chapter 47: Predestination

The eighth day of November, the winter solstice.

Outside Hanyu mountain, snow had begun to fall heavily.

After Lu Heng finished his usual training, he left the underground temple and returned to the surface.

However, there was no snow in front of the wolf God Temple.

The gloomy heavenly thunder clouds shrouded the sky, and there was not a trace of snow on the main peak of Hanyu mountain. That is to say, on the vast land covered with snow, Hanyu mountain is the only place that has not been stained with white.

Lu Heng was surprised to see this scene.

But after thinking carefully, since the heavenly thunder clouds shrouded Hanyu mountain, the main peak had not even rained, not to mention the snow. Although the dark vortex cloud slowly rotating in the sky is dark, it didn't seem to rain?

Lu Heng was worried. If it doesn't rain all the time, the vegetation on the mountain will not wither away, right?

It seems that I have to find a way to make some changes.

Lu Heng thought so and continued to walk forward.

Although it is troublesome that there is no rain or snow in the mountains, there are more troublesome things that Lu Heng needs to deal with.

Walking along the bluestone path, Lu Heng came to the top of the stone steps leading to the foot of the mountain.

The girl named Xiao Ai was sitting on the steps with a broom in her arms and her cheeks in her hands. She was staring at the snow outside the mountain, thinking about something.

Under the gloomy sky light, the girl sitting on the stone steps was thin, and the withered and yellow leaves fell behind her, with a little bleak breath.

Lu Heng walked up to her and asked with a smile, "Xiao Ai, why don't you urge that ape to cultivate today?"

The girl quickly recovered, "Lord Wolf God."

She said with some joy, "Have you finished your cultivation this time?"

"Well, it's time to go out for a walk," Lu Heng said, walking to the girl, sitting side by side at the top of the bluestone ladder, watching the snow flying all over the mountain. "Why are you so leisurely today? At this time in the past, you should be teaching that naughty ape a lesson?"

With that, Lu Heng glanced at the girl beside him and said with a smile, "At this time in the past, the mountains were really windy and I could hear the cry of the ape when I was underground... Why didn't the monkey cry today? Did you give it a holiday?"

Lu Heng's teasing made the little girl blush and embarrassed.

"Lord wolf..." the little girl cried out in embarrassment.

Lu Heng laughed for a while and then said, "OK, OK, I won't make fun of you. Come on, what's the trouble? I think you've been sitting here for a long time. The ape is too naughty to teach?"

The little girl hesitated for a while, and then she said, "Lord Wolf God, you... Do you think I should force him to cultivate?"

Lu Heng looked at her with a smile and asked, "What do you think?"

The little girl let out a long sigh, and said with her little face wrinkled, "I don't know..."

She stared at the flying snow outside the mountain with a worried expression. "It is a wild monkey in the mountain. It plays with monkeys in the mountain every day. It is happy and has no worries. Although its life is short, it is carefree."

"I want to lead him to cultivate and teach him the method of demon cultivation. Although he is willing to learn, his mind is obviously not on cultivation. Compared with cultivation, he is more willing to play with other monkeys."

"I forced him to cultivate hard with me. Although he didn't complain, he was not happy. But if I gave up, I felt that I had not done my duty... I......"

The little girl looked helplessly at the wolf God and asked softly, "Lord Wolf God, what should I do?"

The little girl who always wanted to be strong now showed a rare weak expression. In the bleak wind, she seemed so weak and helpless.

Although her weak and helpless appearance is lovable, Lu Heng really wants to laugh at it.

This little girl is young, but she already has the trouble of being a parent...

Is that why the little girl let the ape into the mountain today? She wondered whether she should continue to force the White Ape to cultivate?

Lu Heng thought for a while and said, "Xiao Ai, do you know the reason why there are so many creatures in the world, but there are so few of them who can cultivate?"

The little girl was stunned and shook her head. She wondered why Lord Wolf God asked this question.

Lu Heng looked at the snow-covered land outside the mountain and said, "The spirits in the mountain are different from human beings. Human beings are born with a body of five elements, and they can step on the path of cultivation at any time. Even if they are old people, as long as the fate comes, they can also cultivate themselves and rejuvenate themselves."

"But the spirits in the mountains are different. Most of them are not taught. They don't know how to cultivate. So the spirits in the wilderness depend on their natural instincts at the beginning."

"Everything in heaven and earth will have a mouth of inborn essence Qi when it is born from the womb. This inborn essence Qi is strong and weak, let's leave the weak aside."

"However, for those with strong energy, the innate energy in the body will unconsciously guide spirit Qi into the body. Therefore, the monsters in the wilderness rely on this innate energy for their initial cultivation."

"When the spirit Qi accumulated in the body gradually increases, they will become more and more intelligent, and begin to consciously use the innate vitality in the body to cultivate. They will also gradually pull away from ordinary beasts."

"So before they can transform into the human shape, this innate vitality is the most important foundation for demon cultivation. If it breaks, you will lose your accomplishments."

"That ape is the monkey king in the mountains, he has long lost its innate vitality on the female monkeys' bodies. If no one taught him, he would never be able to cultivate demon cultivation all his life."

"Even if you are willing to teach and guide him with the demon cultivation method, but without the innate vitality as the foundation, it will be very difficult for it to cultivate."

"And that ape is old enough. If he doesn't cultivate well, he can only live for a few years at most."

"You are neither its parent nor its teacher. If you just want to repay his kindness, there is really no need to force him to cultivate."

"Because he is so absent-minded, even if he is forced to cultivate with you, the results will be limited. At most, it will only prolong his life, but he will lose freedom and happiness. The losses outweigh the gains."

"In that case, why don't you go along with it?"

Lu Heng said with a smile, "Don't force the ape too much. You just need to give him a little supervision. It all depends on himself to tread in the demon cultivation path."

"Many things in this world are about fate."

"Even if you force a person to cultivate, if he can't understand it, you are wasting your efforts."

"You should do what you have to do and have a clear conscience. If even the ape can't find a way, it's not your fault. Anyways, you and I can keep the ape safe on this mountain."

"To repay a debt of gratitude, you don't have to teach it to cultivate or to make it live longer. To protect its peace and to make it happy every day, this is also a way to repay a debt of gratitude."

"What's more, you are not a monkey. Do you know the happiness of monkeys?"

Lu Heng said this and couldn't help laughing. "Maybe in the eyes of the ape, it's better to be a carefree wild monkey in the mountains than to cultivate into a demon."

Lu Heng's words stunned the little girl.

She lowered her head and mumbled the words of the wolf God.

"I'm not a monkey... I don't know the happiness of monkeys..."

After half a ring, the little girl raised her head and looked at the Wolf God in front of her as her eyes became firm. "I know what to do. Thank you for your instruction."

The little girl's expression at this time was much more relaxed, and she was no longer as gloomy as before.

It seems that the knot has been solved.

Lu Heng stood up with a smile and said, "In that case, you should continue to sweep the floor. I should also go back... Huh?"

While talking, Lu Heng suddenly felt something and looked out of the mountain.

Outside the Hanyu mountain, in the heavy snow, two figures cut through the sky and flew here rapidly.

Although the distance is far away, ordinary people may not see anything, but Lu Heng and Xiao Ai are not ordinary people. They clearly see that the two figures cut through the sky and finally landed in the Hanyu mountain.

Looking in the direction, it's probably the Wind Raiders department of the Li tribe.

Xiao Ai was surprised, "Lord Wolf God..."

Lu Heng thought for a while and said, "It seems that someone is coming."

He turned and walked toward the tree-lined path behind him. "Well, let's put aside the ape. If I'm not wrong, it should be the priest from the Great Sea department of the Li tribe. Go, clean up and get ready to welcome the guests."

"Yes, Lord Wolf God," the little girl bowed and watched Lu Heng disappear into the forest.

In the Hanyu mountain, there was only the roaring sound of the mountain wind.
