Tales of Herding Gods

Qin Mu found the golden ship and was about to head to the Ultimate Void when he saw Celestial Venerable Ling walking over.

"Do you know how to go to the Ultimate Void and find Celestial Venerable Yun?" she asked as she stood under the ship.

Qin Mu was slightly stunned. He revealed a smile and stretched out his hand.

Celestial Venerable Ling grabbed his hand, and Qin Mu pulled her onto the ship.

"Your ship is weird."

Celestial Venerable Ling landed on the bow of the ship and said, "I saw someone on the ship, but I couldn't see who it was. Furthermore, your ship is actually huge, and there's an unknown amount of space inside. I invited Celestial Venerable Yue to search for it, but she couldn't find this ship even after half a year."

Qin Mu jumped in shock. Celestial Venerable Yue had searched for half a year, but she still couldn't find this ship?

Celestial Venerable Yue's space divine art was no small matter, and her attainments were so high that even Qin Mu had to look up to her. It would probably take her a few years to travel from one end of the universe to the other.

"Celestial Venerable Yue said that this ship seems to have a life of its own and can grow or shrink on its own. The person on this ship is hiding, so you guys can't find him," Celestial Venerable Ling said as she looked at the ship.

Qin Mu followed her gaze and could only see the palaces on the outside of the golden ship. Until now, he hadn't seen the entire appearance of the golden ship.

"Are you saying that the master of Miluo Palace is really living on this ship?"

He pondered and said, "However, the master of Miluo Palace is already dead. If someone was on the ship, it wouldn't be him. It could only be his imprint. Or maybe, there's really someone hiding on this ship…"

He thought about it and suppressed his urge to search for the golden ship. He smiled and said, "It's more important to meet Celestial Venerable Yun first. This golden ship of mine is extraordinary and can enter the ultimate void. However, I don't know where Celestial Venerable Yun's Great Overarching Heaven is."

'The Great Overarching Heaven is of utmost importance. If Celestial Venerable Hao and the Grand Primordium find their way there, Celestial Venerable Yun will be dead, so he has to hide.'

Celestial Venerable Ling said, "Not many people know where the Great Overarching Heaven is, so I'll give you some pointers on how to get there. On the way, I can impart my comprehension of these forty thousand years to you."

Qin Mu was delighted.

Celestial Venerable Ling thought about it and decided to use consciousness techniques to impart what she had comprehended over the past forty thousand years to him. This way, it would save time and allow Qin Mu to comprehend more.

The golden ship slowly rose into the sky, accelerating bit by bit.

On the golden ship, Qin Mu sorted out the knowledge that Celestial Venerable Ling had imparted to him while controlling the golden ship. He had to wait until the golden ship reached a certain speed before opening the void and allowing it to travel through the void.

Celestial Venerable Ling's comprehension over the past forty thousand years was indeed extraordinary. She had already comprehended the Dao markings of the Miluo Palace that Qin Mu had imparted to her.

This was a great achievement!

There were endless transformations in the Dao markings of Miluo Palace, and there were countless details. When the Dao markings changed, they would connect together, making it incomparably complicated.

Qin Mu had stayed in Miluo Palace for a long time, but he was unable to solve the mysteries contained in the fixed Dao markings. He was unable to solve the changes in the Dao markings.

Even so, he relied on this shallow comprehension to create the Primordial Finger, making Celestial Venerable Huo, God Emperor Lang Xuan, and the rest not dare to face it head-on.

However, because he hadn't comprehended any changes, Qin Mu's finger was moving straight and could be easily dodged.

If Celestial Venerable Ling comprehended these changes, Qin Mu's Primordial Finger could transform from the heart, and its power would be greatly increased!

Similarly, he could also see through the changes in the Dao markings of the Mi Luo Palace and understand the changes in the red rope knot mudra skill. This would greatly increase the power of the red rope knot!

If he could do that, the red rope knot would no longer be as simple as trapping Mistress Yuanmu and Celestial Empress. Instead, with a mudra, the opponent would be reduced to ashes!

"Ling, I shall impart a mudra skill to you. It is also from the Dao markings of the Miluo Palace, but it involves the Dao chains, making it even more complicated."

Qin Mu's consciousness rippled, and he imparted to Celestial Venerable Ling what he had learned from comprehending the red knot mudra skill. He said, "I have only learned this mudra skill under the state of stillness, so I can't change it from the heart. How long will it take you to comprehend the changes within?"

Celestial Venerable Ling sat at the bow of the ship silently and didn't reply for a long time.

Qin Mu wasn't in a hurry. He continued to comprehend the marvel of the Dao markings while speeding up the golden ship. The golden ship had already reached the sky of the Primordial Realm, and it passed by the moon.

There was a palace in the moon. Qin Mu looked around and saw a woman in a white shirt walking out of the palace with a sword on her back. She carried a flower basket and planned to pluck some fresh flowers.

When the woman saw the golden ship and Qin Mu on it, she quietly stood in front of the palace gate.

Qin Mu controlled the golden ship and flew around the moon for a few weeks. He gradually slowed down and finally made the golden ship stop.

He jumped down from the ship and came to the front of the moon palace. There were numerous flowers and plants planted in front of the moon palace. There was also an old tea tree that was about a hundred years old.

The tea tree grew slowly, but it could still grow very tall after a hundred years.

"Long time no see."

The woman came to the tea tree, but she stopped. The moonlight was pure white, and the shadows under the tea tree danced.

The fragrance floated in the moonlight.

Qin Mu walked forward and also came under the tea tree, looking at Bai Qu'er quietly.

Bai Qu'er was still like before, peaceful, beautiful, and free.

"I know you like to drink tea, so I planted a tea tree."

Her beauty came with her under the tea tree, making the fragrance in the garden outside the palace light and elegant. She said, "You haven't seen me for quite some time, and some of the tea has been put on display, so I drank it myself. I didn't like to drink it at first, but I slowly started to like it."

Qin Mu's frame of mind suddenly calmed down, and he said with a smile, "Do you still have tea? I don't have any urgent matters, I want to drink a cup before leaving."

Bai Qu'er was very happy and returned to the palace to prepare. At this moment, Celestial Venerable Ling walked over and said, "Prepare an extra tea set."

Bai Qu'er looked at her deeply and asked suspiciously, "Celestial Venerable Ling? High Emperor Celestial Venerable Ling?"

She had once followed her father to the High Emperor Celestial Heavens and met Celestial Venerable Ling from afar.

Even though Celestial Venerable Ling was a woman, she wasn't very particular about it. During the High Emperor Era, she was usually slovenly. Now, she was dressed in green and dressed like a woman. However, she found her hair troublesome and couldn't be bothered with it, so she cut it very short. It was very different from the sloppy appearance of the leopard skirt and straw shoes back then.

Celestial Venerable Ling recognized her and said, "White Dragon Clan? High Emperor Sword God? I've seen you before. It should be the High Emperor Celestial Heavens' celebration forty thousand years ago. You followed City Lord Bai Long in the crowd. You were only this tall then."

She gestured with her hand.

"Celestial Venerable's memory is really good."

Bai Qu'er was astonished. At that time, there were tens of thousands of races participating in the celebration. Celestial Venerable Ling took a glance at the thousands of people, and she could memorize all of their faces and voices. It was truly astonishing.

"I met you after that."

Celestial Venerable Ling said, "The source of Surging River, the woman carrying the basket, the baby in the basket. I was the one who sent you to save them. When the baby grew up, I sent him to meet you forty thousand years ago."

Bai Qu'er's eyes widened, and she was speechless.

The fate between the three of them was so marvelous that it formed a marvelous link!

Forty thousand years ago, Qin Mu came to Hundred Prosperities City to save Bai Qu'er. Forty thousand years later, under the guidance of Celestial Venerable Ling, Bai Qu'er saved the swaddled Qin Mu. When Qin Mu grew up, he was sent to Hundred Prosperities City forty thousand years ago by Celestial Venerable Ling.

Qin Mu moved the stone table over, and Bai Qu'er made tea. Qin Mu poured Celestial Venerable Ling a cup, and Celestial Venerable Ling took a sip before putting it aside. She fell into deep thought again.

Bai Qu'er looked at Qin Mu and revealed a puzzled expression. Qin Mu smiled and said, "This is her temperament, there's no need to bother with her."

He drank the tea slowly. The tea was as light and elegant as the woman beside him. It was fragrant and charming. He took a small sip and the aftertaste lingered.

Qin Mu raised his head to look at the tea tree and asked curiously, "It was transplanted from High Heavens, right?"

Bai Qu'er nodded and said, "Madam Xu, Jing Yan, gave me one. She said that Xu Shenghua used this kind of tea to entertain you back then, and you even tricked half of it away."

Qin Mu laughed loudly and was very pleased with himself. "I didn't swindle half of his tea, I swindled him as well!"

Bai Qu'er drank her tea with a chuckle.

Qin Mu looked at her and thought about how he had traveled with her in outer space. He thought about how they had been in the moon palace and how they had disturbed the stars. Jiang Baigui and Yu Chenzi had come to investigate and forced Qin Mu to call her senior.

It was the happiest time of his life.

He revealed a smile, and his Dao heart was incomparably tranquil. He quietly drank his tea and relaxed.

He felt that his soul had reached a quiet harbor, and he enjoyed this rare peace.

His fate with Bai Qu'er was too marvelous.

After some time, Celestial Venerable Ling suddenly said, "I've calculated it! Give me fifty thousand years, I can solve it for you!"

She gave the two of them a fright, and only then did Qin Mu remember that Celestial Venerable Ling was talking about the red knot. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Celestial Venerable Ling raised her cup of tea, and Bai Qu'er hurriedly said, "Celestial Venerable, please wait a moment, it's already cold. I'll go change a cup…"

"No need!"

Celestial Venerable Ling raised her head and drank it in one gulp. She put down her teacup and said, "Celestial Venerable Mu, I'll wait for you on the ship. Don't delay for too long."

Qin Mu nodded, and Celestial Venerable Ling returned to the golden ship.

Qin Mu refilled his cup of tea and held it in his hand, feeling its warmth.

Bai Qu'er looked at him and realized that he had been looking at her. She couldn't help feeling flustered.

Qin Mu admired it for a long time, and the tea in his hand had already turned cold. Only then did he finish it in one gulp. He put down the empty teacup and stood up. "I'm leaving again."

Bai Qu'er got up and tidied his collar. "Is it dangerous?"

"Not bad."

Qin Mu stood there motionlessly and waited for her to tidy up. He smiled and said, "I've always been like this, I've experienced too much."

"Be careful."

Bai Qu'er thought about it and said, "Celestial Venerable Ling, Celestial Venerable Yue, is a Celestial Venerable of the High Emperor Era. Help me ask her. I protect some of the people left behind by High Emperor, but my own abilities aren't high. I implore the two Celestial Venerables to protect their people."

Qin Mu nodded and turned to leave. Bai Qu'er watched as he walked towards the golden ship, only to see him suddenly turning back and pulling her into his embrace.

Bai Qu'er didn't struggle and just quietly leaned on his chest.

After a moment, Qin Mu let go of her and turned to leave.

"She's a good girl."

On the ship, Celestial Venerable Ling was still sitting on the ground. She used her vital qi to derive the structure of the red knots and tried to deduce the changes and marvel within. Without raising her head, she said, "If you two can be together, it will be perfect."

"That's right." Qin Mu smiled and executed the World Crossing Golden Ship.

Celestial Venerable Ling said, "I heard from Yue'er that you drew a painting for her. She cherishes it very much."

Qin Mu's eyeballs rolled, and a drop of cold sweat slowly appeared on the back of his neck.

"I heard from Su Muzhe that your relationship with Emperor Yanxiu is extraordinary. You two had a private marriage when you were young, and you even paid your respects to the Hall. It's just that you didn't have a roundhouse," Celestial Venerable Ling continued.

The back of Qin Mu's neck was wet, and sweat flowed down his back.

Celestial Venerable Ling raised her head and glanced at him. She said, "Su Muzhe even secretly told me that Lang Wo had a painting that you painted. The painting saint was even better, but Lang Wo burned the painting saint and only left yours."

A chill ran down Qin Mu's back as he executed the golden ship. It broke through the void and vanished.
