“Silly child!” Chen Mu rubbed Chen Ping An’s head with her hand.
“If that's the case, then Mother will continue to live with you.”
“Mm-hm! Mother, I don't want to be separated from you again.” Chen Ping An held Chen Mu’s hand, his eyes full of affection.
After their mother-son moment of warmth, Chen Mu quickly returned to Li Mu Bai and Zhi Gui without staying long with Chen Ping An.
“Master, I will leave it to you from now on!” Upon arriving, Chen Mu addressed Li Mu Bai respectfully.
She directly stopped calling him Mu Bai.
Since Li Mu Bai had just said that choosing to become a deity meant being under his control,
the relationship between them had naturally changed.
“Um…”
Seeing this, Chen Ping An finally realized what was happening.
He had been too happy to think about how his mother would address someone else like this.
“Aunt, you don't need to do that, just call me Mu Bai like you used to! My restrictions on you are not because I want to control you, but because after I revive you, there will be these restrictions! I'm reviving you mainly as compensation for Chen Ping An.”
Li Mu Bai quickly waved his hand.
“It's fine, Mu Bai. Being revived by you and then being granted godhood by you is only right. If it were any other way, I wouldn't feel at ease. After all, I'm taking advantage of you, how could I accept a favor without returning it?” Chen Mu answered seriously.
“Aunt, you're making it difficult for me to get along with Ping An later.” Li Mu Bai shook his head.
“Um… that…” Chen Mu was taken aback and subconsciously glanced at Chen Ping An beside her. Then, she followed up, “Then… then Aunt Mu Bai will take advantage of you. But Mu Bai, you can just give any orders you may have.”
“What advantage is there to take? I'm the one who's taken advantage of Ping An! As for when I need Aunt to act, I certainly won't be polite.” Li Mu Bai laughed.
Then he changed the subject, “Alright, Aunt, let's not talk about this anymore. I'll completely revive you first!”
“Mm!” Chen Mu nodded.
Chen Ping An on the side, immediately looked at Li Mu Bai with anticipation again.
“Qing Ping Sword, it's your turn now. What should I do?”
Li Mu Bai immediately connected his consciousness with the Qing Ping Sword.
【Do you want her to be a Mountain God or a River God? Or a Land God?】
Upon receiving this information, Li Mu Bai did not immediately answer. Instead, he quickly pondered.
The most important river in the Li Zhu Cave Heaven was undoubtedly the Dragon Whisker Creek.
And the River Mother of the Dragon Whisker Creek was held by Ma Ku Xuan’s grandmother.
This Ma Ku Xuan would have a grudge against Chen Ping An in the future.
If he were to seize this River Mother position from Ma Ku Xuan's grandmother, it would definitely be considered stealing opportunity.
After all, Ma Ku Xuan was one of the main characters.
However, besides the River God, there would also be the North Mountain God in the Li Zhu Cave Heaven.
That was one of the Five Mountain Gods.
Their strength was far superior to ordinary Mountain Gods.
While that North Mountain God was granted godhood partly because he was the previous North Mountain God, it was also greatly related to Chen Ping An.
After all, Ah Liang had intimidated the Great Li Dynasty.
If he were to take this North Mountain God position beforehand, would he be able to snatch a huge opportunity as well?
In the story later, Wei Bo, who obtained the position of North Mountain God, would eventually become a Transcendence Realm cultivator.
That was the third realm in the top five realms.
In the entire cultivation process, he had already reached the Thirteenth Realm.
While he still couldn't compare to the Fourteenth Realm Grand Cultivators like Qi Jing Chun, Zou Zi, and Yang Lao Tou,
he was still at the pinnacle of the ‘world’.
Many powerful cultivators had difficulty making any further progress after reaching this point.
More accurately, many people found it challenging to break through to this stage.
Reaching the Immortal Realm, the Twelfth Realm, was already quite difficult.
As for Land Gods...
Li Mu Bai hadn’t heard of any powerful Land Gods appearing in Li Zhu Cave Heaven.
Besides, Land Gods were also subordinate to City Gods.
The North Mountain God was much more powerful than a City God.
With these thoughts in mind, Li Mu Bai turned his attention back to Chen Ping An and Chen Mu, “Aunt, I can make you a Mountain God or a River God. If you were to become a Mountain God, you could choose between Luopo Mountain and Piyun Peak. According to Chen Ping An's destiny, he's likely to become the Mountain Lord of Luopo Mountain in the future.
The latter, Piyun Peak, would become the North Mountain Peak of the Great Li Dynasty, one of the Five Peaks.
Once you become the Mountain God of Piyun Peak, there's a high chance of becoming one of the Five Peak Gods.”
“As for becoming a River God, then here in Li Zhu Cave Heaven, you can only choose to be the River God of Dragon Whisker Creek.”
“This River God position of Dragon Whisker Creek is also related to Chen Ping An and your family. According to the flow of destiny, this River God position will be taken by Ma Ku Xuan’s mother-in-law in the future.”
“And Ma Ku Xuan’s father, is actually the one who killed Chen Ping An’s father.”
“So, if you were to seize the River God position of Dragon Whisker Creek, it would be considered taking revenge for Chen Ping An's father, as if you were to snatch it beforehand from the Ma family.”
As soon as his words fell, Chen Mu and Chen Ping An couldn't help but exclaim:
“What!!!”
“Ma Ku Xuan’s father killed my dad?!”
Both of them were incredibly surprised.
They had no idea beforehand that Chen Ping An's father had died at the hands of Ma Ku Xuan's father.
“It's not just Ping An’s father who died at the hands of Ma Ku Xuan's parents. In fact, Aunt, you were also indirectly killed by them. It was because of Chen Ping An's father's death that you passed away as well.” Li Mu Bai continued.
