In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed.
Every household in Li Family Village, everyone, would go to the Land God Temple to offer a stick of incense every morning and evening.
Even young children were brought by their parents to offer incense to the Land God.
Everyone was extremely active.
After all, besides the fact that ten days ago, Lord Zhang Yue had manifested his divinity, conferred the title of Temple Keeper upon Li Youming, and bestowed blessings upon the Village Chief and others.
In these ten days.
Lord Zhang Yue had bestowed blessings upon two more people!
The people studied and discovered.
That those two people were also exceptionally devout towards Lord Zhang Yue, and were kind to others on weekdays.
This gave everyone an understanding.
To receive Lord Zhang Yue's blessings, kindness to others and exceptional devotion were necessary conditions!
Although Li Youming had told them this before.
But what others say is not the same as what you realize yourself, is it?
With this realization.
The atmosphere of the entire Li Family Village changed dramatically.
Every villager began to be kind to others, and greeted everyone with a smiling face.
Moreover, without Temple Keeper Li Youming's coercion, everyone was particularly active in offering incense every morning and evening.
Who wouldn't want to receive Lord Zhang Yue's blessing and directly become a powerful martial artist?
At this moment——
In Chen Family Village, separated from Li Family Village by only a river, Li Youming sat with great authority.
Beside him sat Village Chief Li Deyang.
Behind them were Li Xiuwu, Li Deming, and eight other Tier 1 middle-stage martial artists.
Two other Tier 1 middle-stage martial artists were arranged by Li Youming to be responsible for the safety of the Land God Temple.
Li Youming would never allow anyone to be presumptuous in the Land God Temple.
"Are you really Li Youming?"
Chen Mazzi, the Village Chief of Chen Family Village, looked at Li Youming in disbelief.
He and Li Youming were from the same era, and often fought when they were young.
He had even seen Li Youming once two months ago.
At that time, Li Youming was hunched over, his face was full of wrinkles, and most of his hair was white.
But now?
He looked energetic and robust, his skin was rosy and shiny, and his hair was dark and bright, he had simply rejuvenated!
Could it be that the things passed down from Li Family Village were all true?
The Land God of Li Family Village had really manifested his divinity?
Li Youming was conferred the title of Temple Keeper by the Land God, and his white hair turned black in an instant?
Impossible!
How could there be any gods in this world!
He felt that Li Youming had probably eaten some heavenly treasure.
"Chen Mazzi, I won't say much to you."
"I came here personally to tell you that from now on, your Chen Family Village will be merged into our Li Family Village!"
"The original statue in the Land God Temple of Chen Family Village will be removed, and Lord Zhang Yue will be enshrined from now on."
Li Youming said lightly.
Having been a Temple Keeper for ten days, a sense of majesty had gradually begun to emerge from him.
"What did you say?"
Chen Mazzi was stunned, and somewhat suspected that he had misheard.
Merge?
Li Family Village wanted to merge their Chen Family Village?
The surrounding clansmen of Chen Family Village also clamored, and immediately became angry. If it weren't for some old people stopping them, they would probably have started fighting immediately.
"Didn't understand?"
"Deyang, let him understand a little."
Li Youming said lightly, his expression not changing at all.
Li Deyang stood up.
There was no expression on his face, and he slowly walked towards Chen Mazzi:
"Uncle Chen, logically speaking, you are an elder, and I shouldn't fight with you."
"But the Temple Keeper represents Lord Zhang Yue walking in the world, and the Temple Keeper's order is Lord Zhang Yue's order."
"Forgive me."
His voice was calm.
"Li Deyang?"
"You want to fight me?"
Village Chief Chen Mazzi of Chen Family Village laughed in anger. He pulled out a wooden stick from the side and shouted angrily:
"Just because you think I'm old, you think you can beat me, right?"
"Come——!"
"Let me teach you a lesson!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he swung the wooden stick towards Li Deyang!
As the Village Chief of Chen Family Village, he was also a Tier 1 middle-stage martial artist who had undergone two Qi and Blood Transformations.
Although he was old, he had more experience!
Bang——!
Li Deyang's expression was indifferent, and he casually raised his hand to grab the wooden stick that was swung over.
No matter how hard Chen Mazzi tried, his face turned red, but the wooden stick did not move at all.
"Don't bully my dad!"
An angry roar came from the side, and Chen Mazzi's eldest son also took a wooden stick and slammed it over!
Chen Family Village also had two Body Refinement Realm martial artists.
One was Village Chief Chen Mazzi.
The other was his eldest son, Chen Ergou.
Chen Ergou was tall and strong, with great strength.
But Li Deyang still just stretched out his hand, and also grabbed the wooden stick that was swung over, also without moving!
"Let go."
Li Deyang smiled.
Chen Mazzi and his son Chen Ergou immediately felt a great force coming from the wooden stick, and the two of them could no longer hold the wooden stick in their hands, and staggered back.
Both of their tiger's mouths were split open, and blood flowed straight down.
"You… …you… …"
Chen Mazzi looked at Li Deyang as if he had seen a ghost, and said in disbelief:
"Tier 1 Limit?!"
"You actually became a Tier 1 Limit martial artist!"
"How is that possible!"
"Not long ago, you were still the same as my son, just a Tier 1 middle-stage martial artist who had undergone two Qi and Blood Transformations!!"
His voice trembled.
Looking at Li Youming, and then looking at Li Deyang.
Could it be that the legends were true?
The Land God of Li Family Village had really manifested his divinity?
"Chen Mazzi."
Li Youming stood up:
"Behind me, there are eight Tier 1 middle-stage martial artists, all bestowed by Lord Zhang Yue's manifestation."
"Villagers of Chen Family Village, you should have heard more or less about the manifestation of our Li Family Village's Land God."
"Some people have even been to our Li Family Village Land God Temple to worship Lord Zhang Yue."
"But you are villagers of Chen Family Village, and Lord Zhang Yue is the righteous Land God of our Li Family Village."
"Your cross-village worship may not have much effect."
"It's better to directly merge into our Li Family Village, and you will all be protected by Lord Zhang Yue in the future, and you won't be afraid of demons and evil spirits!"
"You can even receive Lord Zhang Yue's blessing and become a martial artist in one leap!"
"Many of you should know what they looked like before."
"But now——"
"They are all God-given martial artists!"
As his voice fell.
Li Xiuwu, Li Deming, and the other eight stepped forward, picked up the firewood knives from their waists, and their whole bodies burst out with Qi and Blood——
Suddenly, the firewood knives were filled with blood!
Chop——!
The firewood knives in the hands of the eight people chopped down, and the air was torn apart, sending out a sharp whistling sound!
"They are all Tier 1 middle-stage martial artists!"
Chen Mazzi and Chen Ergou exclaimed.
The villagers who had gathered in the entire Chen Family Village were all in an uproar.
So many martial artists?
All bestowed by the Land God of Li Family Village?
Many people's eyes were fiery.
In this era when demons and evil spirits are rampant, martial artists are the most convincing!
Everyone wants to become a martial artist!
Only by becoming a martial artist can they be equal to demons!
And now——
A path is laid out in front of them!
And Chen Mazzi and Chen Ergou's eyes also changed from shock to fiery.
They also want to improve further!
Only five days passed.
Chen Family Village officially merged into Li Family Village.
And Li Family Village was renamed 'Four Seas Village'!
Taking the meaning of the sea accepting all rivers, and being great in tolerance.
Li Youming already understood that the most important role of his Temple Keeper was to develop more believers for Lord Zhang Yue.
The name 'Li Family Village' was not suitable, as it had the suspicion of belonging to one family and one surname.
So he made a decisive decision and directly changed the name.
… …
In the "Divine Realm".
Li Yue looked at the [Personal Task——II] that had been displayed, and a smile appeared on his face.
Li Youming was very good, very courageous.
He actually directly merged the neighboring village.
At this time, seven days had passed since the merger of Chen Family Village, and only twenty-two days had passed since he issued the divine decree.
Li Youming had already completed this divine decree.
"Mountain Leveling Divine Talisman… …"
"I wonder what its effect is."
"Leveling mountains and filling seas?"
He looked at the 'Mountain Leveling Divine Talisman' that appeared out of thin air in front of him after receiving the reward.
