The torrential rain that had stopped started to fall again.
Under the scholar's instructions, the commoners had all rushed to take shelter from the rain … or rather, to take refuge.
On the shore of the Lishui River, the scholar and the Earth God Loli stood side by side. Opposite them was the Lishui Dragon King, Ao Li, who was standing on the waves and staring at them.
"Xiao Yi … No, Zhuo Yunyi, do you really want to be enemies with me?"
Ao Li's expression seemed to be somewhat distressed.
After all, before Zhuo Xiangzhu left, he had specially instructed him to take good care of Zhuo Yunyi on his behalf.
However, he did not expect that not long after, the situation would greatly change because of a human scholar — Zhuo Yunyi would stand opposite him and become his enemy.
If not for the fact that the Dragon King had just experienced a greater blow (falling out of love), just this alone was enough to make him start to doubt his dragon life.
"…"
The Earth God Loli did not reply.
She knew that if she mentioned the eldest miss, she would be able to convince Ao Li and make the Dragon King compromise.
However, inviting the eldest miss to return and become the Earth God of Jiang Jin was her own wishful thinking. She did not want to involve others in her whimsical plans — she would most likely be punished by the heavens if she did so. If Ao Li did not know and fought with her, it could be considered as fulfilling his duty as the Lishui Dragon King. At least, he would not be punished for violating the heavenly laws.
"Is that so … That expression is the same as Xiangzhu's." The Lishui Dragon King Ao Li laughed self-deprecatingly and assumed a stance: "Both of you are filled with determination, no wonder she would choose you to inherit her mantle."
The Earth God Loli also took a deep breath and blocked the scholar behind her. She summoned the Earth God's True Spirit and planned to go all out.
To be honest, even Zhuo Xiangzhu was not Ao Li's opponent, not to mention a little girl who had just become the Earth God for a few days.
However, this battle was different from the previous one. This was not a battle of life and death. As long as she could defeat the Dragon King, it would be her victory.
The girl secretly encouraged herself in her heart.
"What did I do wrong? Why do both of you want to make things difficult for me!"
The Lishui Dragon King roared in grief and indignation. He transformed into his true dragon form and pounced towards the girl and the scholar.
"I'm the one in the wrong, but I can't go back or stop."
The Earth God Loli raised her right hand and a huge fist bulged from the ground. Ao Li's ferocious momentum and caused the silvery-white dragon's body to slanted slanted to graze by by them and by a corner.
The Dragon King of the White's body was by Ao Li's the White's True Dragon King.
However, Ao Li only struggled slightly, and the small mountain of rocks collapsed easily. Ao Li also took the opportunity to soar into the air.
. by by the Lair by by the Lto the point.. to the Lore..
The Earth God Loli clasped her hands together, and countless rocks and soil rose from the ground, wrapping around the city tower to form a huge and sturdy fortress.
"Humph!"
Ao Li spat out a bright red Dragon Pearl. The Dragon Pearl was glowing with colorful light. Wind and thunder intertwined, and one could faintly hear the roar of raging waves coming from it.
He controlled the Dragon Ball and smashed it on the fortress. The fortress, which was incomparably sturdy in this era, immediately collapsed as if it had been hit by a missile. More than half of the originally magnificent tower had also collapsed. One could vaguely see that the Earth God Loli was in the ruins. She summoned a few pieces of rock and soil to block the roof beam when it collapsed.
The scholar stood behind the Earth God Loli. Although he was dazzled by the battle between the two due to his lack of knowledge, the calmness he felt after disregarding life and death did not disappear. Thus, he was only surprised and not frightened.
"Let's end this farce quickly!"
The Dragon King let out a low roar, and two waterspouts appeared on the surface of the Lishui River. They intertwined and fused together, turning into a gigantic tornado that reached up to the sky. It swept toward the Earth God Loli and the others.
"One hit is enough. As long as it hits …"
The little girl had already gathered all her power on her Earth God Spirit.
The next moment, the Earth God Spirit turned into a spear and shot towards the Dragon King!
The Dragon King did not dodge. The divine spear passed through his body without any hindrance. However, it was as if it had passed through a mirage. It did not affect him at all.
"Oh no …" The Earth God Loli suddenly realized that something was wrong.
However, before the girl could finish speaking, a black shadow had already rushed out of the tornado. A single hand turned into a huge dragon claw and slashed down!
The target of the Dragon King's attack was not the Earth God Loli but the scholar behind her.
In the Dragon King's opinion, since things had turned out this way, it would be too fake to be tangled up in trivial matters. He might as well get rid of the cause of all this.
The Earth God Loli wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
The Dragon King had thought that he would see fear and panic in the scholar's eyes, or perhaps a reluctance to part with his life … But to his disappointment, there was only calmness in the scholar's eyes, and a trace of relief.
This made Ao Li hesitate to kill the scholar for a moment.
However, things happened in a flash. Even if he regretted it, it would not change. The mighty dragon claw had already slashed straight at the scholar's head!
At this moment, a hand blocked the Dragon King's claw attack.
Not only that, the Dragon King even felt that the claw he had hit on the back of the scholar's hand was broken. From time to time, he would feel a piercing pain.
The frightened Earth God Loli, the scholar who had survived the disaster, and the Dragon King all followed the hand and looked at its owner.
"It's not good to fight."
Xu Shenxing, who had appeared out of nowhere, said seriously.
"Brother, move aside. This time, I will definitely cripple this mortal who sows discord all day long!"
The Dragon King, who had heaved a sigh of relief, continued to speak fiercely. However, the murderous intent in his eyes was no longer there.
"Before that, I think we should listen to what the culprit, Miss Loli, has to say."
Xu Shenxing also knew that the Dragon King seemed to be a stubborn tsundere, so he pushed the topic to the Earth God Loli.
After a few minutes of silence, the latter told them her plan.
After hearing her words, the Dragon King and the scholar fell silent.
"Then according to your purpose, there was no need to protect the scholar just now, was there? As long as he died, the former Earth God Loli would naturally have no reason to persist. You could achieve your plan without even using blood. Why did you spend so much effort to protect him? "
Xu Shenxing asked.
"I …" The girl's eyes were full of confusion. Finally, she shook her head and said, "I don't know."
"No, it's precisely because you 'know' that you did such a self-contradictory action." Xu Shenxing interrupted her without hesitation.
In fact, although the girl herself was not clear, this plot had already happened three times in the eyes of Xu Shenxing and the others. This was already the fourth time.
Yes, Xu Shenxing and the others had failed previously. In the first round, they had no idea that this girl was planning such a thing. By the time they arrived, the scholar had already been killed by the Dragon King.
After returning from Shang Jing to Jiang Jin, Zhuo Xiangzhu, who had learned of this matter, took advantage of the Earth God Loli's unpreparedness to directly usurp the Earth God Loli's true spirit and take revenge on the Dragon King.
After the Earth God Loli succeeded in prolonging her life with the help of Xu Shenxing and Mo Li, when they arrived at the battlefield, the former Earth God Loli had already killed the Dragon King and then committed suicide in front of them.
In the grief and despair of the Earth Goddess Loli, the world was reset. Fortunately, because Xu Shenxing changed the first sad ending, the reset point was the time when the former Earth Goddess Loli gave the position of God to the Earth Goddess Loli and went to the capital.
In the second round, after learning of the Earth God Loli's plan in the first round, Xu Shenxing and Xiao Zhengyi split up. After Xu Shenxing persuaded (physically) the Earth God Loli and the Dragon King, Xiao Zhengyi also brought Zhuo Xiangzhu back.
Therefore, after the scholar knew the secret, he gave up on changing the route of the Lishui River and returned directly to Shang Jing with his beloved wife to report to the Emperor.
As a result, the former was beaten to death by the furious Emperor. In a rage, Zhuo Xiangzhu broke into the palace and fought with the Imperial Astronomer for a day and a night. In the end, his spiritual power was exhausted and he was killed by thousands of arrows piercing his heart.
In the third round, Xu Shenxing first resolved the misunderstanding between the people as quickly as possible, then he overthrew the Emperor alone and overthrew the imperial court of this era. When he was about to play a first-person barbaric game to see if he could beat the Western barbarians and conquer the world, Zhuo Xiangzhu and the Dragon King died because of God's punishment, and the scholar also died because of love …
"What do you mean?"
The Earth God Loli asked, at a loss.
"Because you subconsciously know that if this continues, it will cause irreversible consequences, so you subconsciously protect the scholar." Xu Shenxing sighed, "In fact, there is no need to argue. Brother Dragon, you don't actually mind changing the route of the Lishui River, right? As long as the Lishui River is not merged with other water systems or disappears, you will always be the River God of the Lishui River … The reason why you stopped the scholar from changing the route is because you don't want the Lishui River to leave Jiang Jin, am I right? "
"Hmph …"
The Lishui Dragon King, who was speechless, could only snort softly, not knowing whether it was a tacit agreement or not.
"Scholar, what you want to do is only to control the flood of the Lishui River. Although the Ministry of Works' Water Department has a rough plan, it shouldn't be a problem to adapt to local conditions, right?" Thus, Xu Shenxing looked at the scholar again.
"Although that is the case …" The scholar looked a little embarrassed.
"In that case, as long as we change the route at the lower reaches of Jiang Jin, wouldn't it be fine?"
Xu Shenxing didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking and said.
"But this way, we will need more manpower and material resources …"
"Perhaps it is true for ordinary people, but don't forget, standing beside you are the Gods of the Earth and the Great River! With the two of them, if you can't even change the route of the Lishui River, it would be better to find a piece of tofu and kill yourself. "
"…"
Therefore, the scholar also fell silent.
But at this time, the Dragon King couldn't help but pour cold water on them.
"Although that is the case, if we help a mortal change the route of the Lishui River, I'm afraid that there will be divine punishment … Even Xiangzhu might be implicated by divine punishment."
"Regarding this, you don't have to worry." Xu Shenxing smiled slightly and wiped the divine blood on his fist without batting an eyelid, "Why do you think I came out so late to stop you?"
Xiao Zhengyi, who came here with him, had an expression of 'Holy shit, how could this be?' on his face.
Mo Li, on the other hand, ran to the river to catch fish again.
"What?"
The Dragon King obviously didn't understand Xu Shenxing's meaning.
"I can guarantee that within a thousand years, the Heavenly Court will not interfere with your affairs. Things like divine punishment, heh … After a thousand years, they won't be able to interfere even if they want to."
"… What exactly did you do?" The Dragon King's expression became even more suspicious.
"Nothing, I just communicated with the Gods and Buddhas."
Xu Shenxing thought to himself: That's right, doesn't physical communication count as communication too?
"…"
☆
"I didn't think that I would actually return to Jiang Jin so soon …"
Because she heard that the scholar had returned to Jiang Jin to manage the Lishui River, Zhuo Xiangzhu could only hurry back, "I hope I can still make it in time."
She understood Ao Li and the scholar too well. The former was arrogant and looked down on mortals, while the latter was pedantic and inflexible.
If he knew that someone wanted to dig up the Lishui River and change the river's course, the Dragon King Ao Li would definitely be angry and find trouble with the other party.
Although the scholar was only a mortal, he had a stomach full of loyalty and patriotism (In the past three weeks, he was kidnapped by Zhuo Xiangzhu to live in seclusion and didn't know that Xu Shenxing had overthrown the Emperor). Even if he was afraid of the Dragon King, he would still face the difficulties and continue to manage the change of the river.
Comparing a dragon and a mortal, the mortal would definitely be the unlucky one.
If it was just a big loss, then it would be fine. She was afraid that Ao Li's mood had been bad recently and he would vent his anger on the scholar. Then, the scholar would have a slim chance of surviving.
It was because of this that she hurried back.
However, after returning to Jiang Jin, she realized that she seemed to have made a mistake.
The scholar and the Dragon King were having a happy and harmonious time … Well, that was not right either. Although the atmosphere between the two of them was somewhat piercing and solemn, it definitely did not feel like they were mortal enemies.
Furthermore, outside Jiang Jin's county, tens of thousands of workers were digging up the river in an orderly manner. The degree of success was simply unbelievable …
"Miss!" Earth Goddess Loli threw herself into the young lady's arms. As the Earth Goddess of Jiang Jin, she was naturally the first person to discover that the young lady had returned to this land. "I have a lot of things to tell you!"
"Yiyi …" The young lady seemed to be surprised for a moment. However, she soon discovered that the young lady was completing her work as a Earth Goddess and could not help but reveal a gentle smile. "Alright, I also have some things to ask you."
As she spoke, the former Earth Goddess girl asked the Earth Goddess Loli about her doubts.
In short, it was the reason why Jiang Jin was so calm and tranquil.
"Ah, I'll have to start from those freeloaders who suddenly disappeared …"
The young lady nestled in the young lady's arms and revealed a blissful smile as she recounted the story that happened during this period of time.
☆
"It's finally over!"
In Ying's apartment, Xiao Zhengyi plopped down on the sofa. While he was enjoying the softness of the cheap sofa, he asked Xu Shenxing, "But speaking of which, is the little Earth Goddess really alright?"
"Yes. Didn't the former Earth Goddess say that her mental state has stabilized?"
Xu Shenxing, who was also a little tired, hugged the sleeping Mo Li and softly replied.
"Speaking of which, is that world really a dream?"
Xiao Zhengyi clicked his tongue in admiration and said, "It's so real that it's unbelievable."
"However, judging from the fact that the world will reset following the little Earth Goddess's despair, it should be a dream," Xiao Zhengyi explained without waiting for Xu Shenxing's reply, "Old Xu, what do you think?"
"Who knows."
Xu Shenxing yawned and gently stroked Mo Li's fair collarbone with his right hand. There was a bright gem embedded with a silver chain hanging there.

Let me clarify for the time being. Although I quite like Liuliu's books, I don't know him personally. The only time I had close contact with him was when I heard that he was arguing with someone in Dragon Sky. (In the end, I seem to have been accidentally injured) The reason why I noted the source was because I was afraid that his classmate would say that he plagiarized.
In addition, has already been destroyed along with the magazine that has only been published for two issues.
Lastly, I would like to recommend another book friend's novel .
