Jiu Muli's attitude made the man a little unwilling. He believed himself to be a handsome and talented man, but now, in front of her, he couldn't even be compared to a few demons.    

    

Even though those Little Demons did not have a bad temper, they were very mischievous and their minds were very flexible. Thus, when they saw that Jiu Muli was very casual with men, they often came to tease him.    

    

The man's spiritual energy was far above these Little Demons, but in order to stay by Jiu Muli's side, he restrained the spiritual energy on his body and continued to mingle with these Little Demons.    

    

Looking at the man and the Little Demons drinking to their heart's content, Jiu Muli was displeased. She suddenly flashed in front of them and shattered the bottle of wine.    

    

Those Little Demons thought that Jiu Muli was angry, so they quickly disappeared and hid in the corner of the woodshed in the courtyard. Only Jiu Muli and the man were left in the room.    

    

"Are you really going to follow me every day?" Jiu Muli asked the man impatiently.    

    

The man's noncommittal attitude made Jiu Muli very angry.    

    

"I know that your spiritual energy is not low, but I don't know why you are pretending to be yourself." Jiu Muli said angrily, "Those villagers and those Little Demons are under my protection, but look what they are doing everyday!"    

    

"If you really want to follow me, then go build the Goddess Temple with them and get me some good food." Jiu Muli lifted the corner of his clothes, stepped on the chair and sat down on the table.    

    

When the man saw Jiu Muli's heroic appearance, a trace of emotion actually surged in his heart.    

    

This emotion pushed the man to walk forward, towards Jiu Muli foolishly.    

    

The man's sudden approach made Jiu Muli tense her mind, she looked at him warily, but the man did not say a word, he only smiled at her slightly.    

    

Jiu Muli looked at his smile, his heart feeling somewhat unhappy, and kicked the defenseless man towards the door.    

    

The man held onto the place where he was kicked at and coughed twice. Jiu Muli rushed out of the house awkwardly.    

    

Looking at the empty house, the man turned around to face a ray of light that flashed in the sky and smirked.    

    

In the eyes of the people, she was a gentle and humble goddess, but she actually punched and kicked him behind his back. If these people knew that she looked so different on the surface, how would they feel?    

    

The man's mind flashed with Jiu Muli's willful and arrogant face, and a hint of a smile unconsciously crawled on the corner of his mouth.    

    

He pushed the door open, and in a flash, he appeared in front of the Goddess Temple that was in the process of being built.    

    

This village was simple and ordinary. There were no wealthy families, no wealthy merchants, and even resources that were in short supply.    

    

Under such difficult and simple conditions, it was obviously impossible to build a magnificent Goddess Temple.    

    

But even so, the villagers still used all of their sincerity to help Jiu Muli build the Goddess Temple.    

    

Good wood and brick, clean altar, strong wooden beam.    

    

The Goddess Temple was built with the combined efforts of all the villagers, and was being built in an orderly manner. Most of the work was already done, and only the door and side door were left to be built.    

    

The man had been standing in front of the Goddess Temple the entire time, blocking the way of some people.    

    

Since the villagers knew that the man came with Jiu Muli, they respectfully reminded him.    

    

The man turned around and saw Jiu Muli sitting on the highest shelf in the village, looking at him calmly with a haughty gaze filled with warning.    

    

The man had no choice but to brace himself and turn around to receive the wooden beam from a robust young man.    

    

The man retracted his hand in shock, not daring to let go after a long time. He didn't dare to let the man toil with them and do such a thing.    

    

Jiu Muli leisurely sat on top of the wooden shelf. Seeing that the man had said something to the villagers and then smoothly joined their ranks, she felt that it was meaningless and flew away.    

    

The Goddess Temple gradually faded into the dusky sky. Only then did the man leave his work together with the villagers and return to his residence to rest.    

    

The moon was up in the window, and the room was bright.    

    

The man could not sleep for a long time, so he lifted the quilt and stood by himself in front of the window.    

    

The moonlight was like a thin layer of frost as it sprinkled over the man's body, separating his external contours from the surrounding darkness, creating a clear and cold feeling similar to that of a god.    

    

Thinking back to how he had been with Jiu Muli for the past few days, although they hadn't talked much, she had stunned him, astonished him, and made him happy.    

    

The man was unable to calm the waves in his heart, so he decided to listen to his own heart.    

    

The Goddess Temple was finally completed. Under the guidance of the white haired elder in the village, Jiu Muli and the villagers held a ceremony to worship the heavens.    

    

Under the witness of the heavens, Jiu Muli had made a contract with the entire village.    

    

After the ceremony, Jiu Muli sealed his own spiritual energy in the goddess statue of the Goddess Temple. This strong wave of spiritual energy could protect the safety of the entire village.    

    

If there was a strong enemy, as long as they managed to trigger the Goddess statue, Jiu Muli would be able to sense them and come to their rescue.    

    

After completing his contract with the villagers, Jiu Muli was going to leave this place and continue walking to get rid of the demons.    

    

Before leaving, Jiu Muli summoned the few Little Demons in the courtyard, ordering them to complete the mission that they had agreed upon for her. They would spread out to the village to protect the villagers and also bring new hope to the village, allowing the villagers to live a life of prosperity and happiness.    

    

Jiu Muli looked back at the man behind her three times in a single step, her beautiful eyebrows creased to the point of almost turning into a small mountain.    

    

"You're still following me?" Jiu Muli looked at the man in disbelief, "Your injuries have long since healed."    

    

"You won't die if you live too long, so please don't follow me anymore, okay?" Jiu Muli was already extremely helpless, she did not understand, she just accepted Mother Nuwa's life to save him, how could she even save a dog skin plaster?    

    

Jiu Muli shook his head in frustration.    

    

She had only met by chance to save one or two people, and that was only by chance. This person was someone Mother Nuwa had personally asked her to save, and she guessed that he must not be an ordinary person, but why was she unable to shake him off?    

    

Helpless, Jiu Muli pointed his sword at the man and said: "You really aren't afraid of death."    

    

The sword tip shone with a cold light. When it was close to the man's neck, the spiritual energy at the tip of the sword released a gust of wind that stirred the man's long hair.    

    

The man stood unmoving before her with a smile on his face.    

    

Jiu Muli slightly exerted force, and the edge of the cold sword was dyed with a touch of captivating red. Jiu Muli was so shocked that his eyes were wide open, but the man in front of him was still as steady as Mt.    

    

Jiu Muli pulled back in frustration. She could only turn around and continue walking, and she no longer wanted to care about whether there was still someone following behind her.
