Chapter 608: 338 Heavenly Master calls me a Daoist friend, he’s for real, I’m crying to death (please subscribe! Seeking monthly passes!)

Inside the Tiger Cave, Qin Hao emerged.

He had intended to keep a low profile while searching for Source Crystals and had even disguised himself.

Unexpectedly, the police from Jiuling City had summoned their own people from Qingyun Mountain.

Within the time he had spent drinking a cup of tea in the Tiger Cave,

Jing Chen arrived and recognized him at a glance.

Things had gotten a bit tricky.

Qin Hao stepped out of the Tiger Cave.

The next second, the appearance on his face began to change.

He reverted from his average-looking disguise back to his original features.

Looking at the Heavenly Master emerging.

This Mountain Lord tiger sat crouched to one side, timid, afraid, and helpless.

Thinking back to when it believed he was just a Yellow Robed practitioner, yet sat with a genuine Purple Robed Heavenly Master, bragging and chatting over tea,

it shivered in fear.

How could it dare to do so?

Li Mujian, on the other hand, was full of longing.

This man was the strongest being of the entire Blue Star.

Universally recognized as the number one leader of the current Daoist community.

The Purple Robe of Qingyun Mountain!

Li Mujian, as someone from the world of magic and techniques, had followed closely and admired the Heavenly Master’s solo confrontation with the entire Light Song Clan.

Especially when the Heavenly Master shot down the Starry Sky Battleship that had plunged Shenwu Mountain into despair with a single arrow from afar.

Li Mujian couldn’t imagine the kind of extraordinary person who could fire that arrow.

Seeing him with his own eyes today.

His demeanor was, indeed, extraordinary.

And unlike Taoist Jing Chen, whose Nascent Soul Qi was not very stable,

indicating that his recent breakthrough was not yet secure, hence his Qi naturally leaked out.

Needless to say, Li Mujian and others could feel that Taoist Jing Chen was an incredibly powerful Cultivator.

Compared to the Heavenly Master, however, it was different.

The Heavenly Master’s demeanor leaked not a trace of energy, and to the uninformed, he might seem just an ordinary person.

That level of mastery involved complete control.

True top Cultivators ought to be like this.

At this moment, Qin Hao glanced at Taoist Jing Chen and did not say much.

He approached the Mountain Lord tiger and asked, "Fellow Daoist, why so?"

Just moments ago, this Mountain Lord tiger was drinking tea with him just fine.

Moreover, Qin Hao felt that this tiger had a commendable existence, having cultivated strenuously in the mountains for many years—it was rather inspirational.

Qin Hao considered it a true fellow Daoist.

The sudden kneeling might leave a bad impression; those not in the know might believe he, as a Heavenly Master, was bullying the poor tiger.

With a lift of his hand, Qin Hao gently levitated the tiger.

The King of Beasts should possess the dignity of the King of Beasts.

Even though his Purple Robe position was slightly imposing, it wasn’t right to be so coercive.

At this moment, the Mountain Lord tiger was unexpectedly assisted by the Heavenly Master, who even addressed it as a fellow Daoist.

In the tiger’s eyes, tears welled up.

Tiger: The Heavenly Master calls me a fellow Daoist, brothers, it really—I’m moved to tears!

In the past, the Mountain Lord tiger thought of the Qingyun Mountain’s Heavenly Masters as celestial beings, their cultivation vast enough to overshadow the entire Blue Star, naturally exuding supreme dignity, aloof and unapproachable.

But it never expected that the real Heavenly Master would be without pretense and amiable.

It instantly felt this was the mark of a truly top-tier power, a real boss.

Its worldview was immediately broadened.

However, while the Heavenly Master and the Mountain Lord tiger addressed each other as Daoist fellows,

the Mountain Lord had enough self-awareness not to get carried away.

The title of fellow Daoist from the Heavenly Master was a courtesy, without putting on airs, but the tiger was clear about its place.

Not to actually believe it was on the same level as the Heavenly Master.

At this moment, the tiger, cautious, transformed into a human form, and bowed deeply, saying, "This junior does not dare."

Qin Hao looked at the now prudent Mountain Lord tiger.

He patted its shoulder.

He knew that once his identity was revealed,

no matter how approachable he was, the difference in status and position wouldn’t allow the tiger to be as natural with him as before.

So, Qin Hao refrained from verbosity.

He had the tiger return to the cave and bring out the child from the village below the mountain.

With the police present, Qin Hao, accompanied by the Mountain Lord tiger, explained the situation to the local police from Jiuling City.

The child from the village was not harmed by the tiger.

Instead, the child had run up the mountain, fainted from a wild boar scare, and the enlightened tiger had taken him back to the cave to recuperate, planning to send him back down the mountain once he awoke.

In fact, the child should be grateful to the Mountain Lord tiger.

Had the tiger not found him just in time, the child could very well have become a meal in the belly of a wild boar.

Even if not eaten by the boar, in the mountains prowled wolves, leopards, and other beasts, and an unconscious child lying in the mountains would have been an easy prey.

Qin Hao said, "Infinite Heavenly Venerable, take the child down the mountain, explain everything to his parents, and in the future, do not trouble this Mountain Lord. All beings have spirit, and cultivation is difficult. Since it does no harm, let it continue its tranquil cultivation in this place."

The words of the Heavenly Master had considerable weight in the ears of Dragon Country’s police.

The Heavenly Master had specifically instructed the police not to harass the spiritually enlightened Mountain Lord tiger.

If the tiger were to commit evil, no need for police intervention; such Demon World matters would naturally be handled by Qingyun Mountain.

Likewise, if it did not do evil and merely pursued its cultivation, it was simply another being seeking the path to longevity; nonetheless, they shouldn’t disturb it.

Moreover, actually speaking, leaving a Cultivator like the Mountain Lord around was beneficial to Jiuling City.

In times of abundant spiritual energy, many places had demons who achieved cultivation.

Besides a minority who followed the path of evil, there were also those on the proper Tao.

In the east and north, there were legends of the Great Family Immortals.

These beings sought higher Tao and had to do good deeds and accumulate merit.

Doing good deeds would decrease the intensity of their own heavenly tribulations in the future.

Therefore, many demons who became enlightened often did good deeds in the locality to accumulate merit.

There were also legends in ancient times about deities from the mountains ensuring favorable weather for all.

This Mountain Lord would do the same, and if the people of Jiuling City treat it well, even offering worship occasionally,

the creature would naturally protect Jiuling City.

Not to mention, a demon with five hundred years of cultivation close to achieving a Golden Core, would be quite capable of ensuring Jiuling City was free from malevolent spirits.

Thus, Qin Hao had his reasons for telling the police forces not to intervene with the Mountain Lord tiger.

The Jiuling City police officers, upon hearing the Heavenly Master’s words, nodded in agreement.

They also understood the Heavenly Master’s intent.

After returning, they would report the situation to the villagers below the mountain and their superiors.

They would request the villagers to also refrain from disturbing the Mountain Lord atop the mountain.

Afterward, Qin Hao let the police take the child down the mountain.

Watching the Jiuling City police take away the lost child from the village,

Qin Hao turned his gaze to Li Mujian, Zhou Qingxue, and others.

As for the people from the harbors, Qin Hao had some questions to clarify.
