Chapter 422: The Villagers Built a Temple, Naming It Holy Infant

Lonemoon, still crying, could not help but look up at Lin Qiye when she heard what he said.

Her teary eyes and slightly sobbing appearance made her look pitiful.

“Really?”

She stared at Lin Qiye, afraid that he was lying to her.

“Yeah. Get up first.” Lin Qiye nodded.

Lonemoon’s tears turned into a smile. Tears and snot hung on her face as she hugged Lin Qiye tightly in excitement.

Their faces pressed against each other, but Lin Qiye was so frightened that he quickly used his hands to hold them up, not allowing Lonemoon to get close.

“Damn! Snot! Your snot is on my face!”

“Ah? I’m sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose. I’ll wipe it for you now.”

…

After a burst of laughter, Lin Qiye and Lonemoon sat on a big tree halfway up the mountain.

“First, tell me the specific situation.”

Lin Qiye looked at Lonemoon. Since he had decided to help, he had to be fully prepared.

Lonemoon nodded and said, “That tiger demon is in the early stage of the Nascent Soul Relm. He has dozens of rogue ghosts under him, but they are not to be feared. Most of them are not qualified, and only a few have the strength of the Qi Refinement Realm.”

Lin Qiye nodded slightly. It was just as he had thought. The tiger demon’s strength was at the Nascent Soul Realm.

However, just as he was thinking about how to deal with that fellow, Lonemoon continued, “We can ignore the ghosts. We only need to be careful when dealing with the tiger demon.

“I’ve made some preparations, but I don’t have much confidence in myself. But now that you’ve joined me, I’m 80% sure I can kill him!”

“Oh?” Lin Qiye looked at Lonemoon in surprise.

Seeing her wave her fist confidently, he couldn’t help but think to himself.

He didn’t expect this girl to be a particularly vengeful person. She couldn’t defeat the tiger demon, but she still wanted to take revenge.

Lin Qiye couldn’t help but smile and shake his head. He then looked at Lonemoon and said, “What’s your plan?”

Lonemoon turned around and said slowly, “I’ve set up a great formation in the mountain. However, the purpose of that formation is to suppress and extract the power of the target. It doesn’t have any killing ability.

“If we want to kill him, we must fight him head-on. I only have a 30% chance of beating him. But with your help now, I’m 60% confident!”

“60%? Didn’t you say there was an 80% chance?”

Lin Qiye was a little confused.

“Yes. If we move now, it’ll only be 60%.”

Lonemoon explained, “But we still have time. The tiger demon will probably need another half a year to refine that heavenly treasure.

“As long as you can break through to the late stage of the Golden Core Realm with the help of the accumulated merits in Tata Village during this period, our chances of success can reach 80% or even 100%!”

Lin Qiye finally understood.

The tiger demon still needed to spend so much time to refine treasures?

It was no wonder Lonemoon dared to think of taking revenge on that tiger demon. With such a long preparation time, she could indeed do many things.

“If there’s still time, your plan is fine.”

Lin Qiye nodded after some thought.

Within half a year, he would easily break through to the late stage of the Golden Core Realm without the need for the merits.

Even if he broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, it would not be a problem.

“Really? Then you’ll be able to break through to the late Golden Core Realm in half a year, right?”

Lonemoon’s expression brightened.

Lin Qiye smiled. “Isn’t this simple? I can even break through to the Nascent Soul Realm without a problem.”

“Tsk, you can continue bragging.” Lonemoon rolled her eyes, obviously not believing Lin Qiye’s words.

Lin Qiye couldn’t be bothered to explain, so he reminded her, “Are you sure he’ll still stay put for half a year? If he came out in the middle, it’ll be a little troublesome.”

“Don’t worry. His refining speed is slow. It will take at least half a year,” Lonemoon said confidently.

Lin Qiye did not say anything else.

The two of them chatted for a while. It was only when the sky gradually darkened that Lonemoon hurriedly got up and said goodbye to Lin Qiye.

The two parted ways.

By the time Lin Qiye returned to the village, the villagers were already preparing to build a temple for him.

“Alright, since everyone has agreed, I’ll contact people to order the materials now. Once the materials arrive tomorrow, we’ll immediately start construction!”

“Alright!”

“We will listen to Patriarch Wang’s orders!”

Under the Wang family patriarch’s lead, the villagers were united and confirmed the construction.

Building a temple?

Lin Qiye smiled.

Does it mean that he has a home now?

Although he was a soul, he had been wandering outside for more than half a year, exposed to the wind, sun, and rain. It was a miserable sight.

In the following period, Lin Qiye made full use of his time to cultivate.

On the other hand, the villagers of Tata Village began to build a temple to worship Lin Qiye under the leadership of the Wang family patriarch.

With everyone working together, a solemn and lively temple was built in less than a month.

They named it the Holy Infant Temple, and there was a statue of a baby sitting cross-legged in the temple.

The statue glowed with a golden light.

“Damn, my cheap father is so rich! He forged a golden body for me!”

Lin Qiye leaned on the beam and inspected the statue.

When he saw the 10-foot-tall golden dharma, he was stunned. It was not any ordinary gold paint but real gold that had been melted and painted on the statue’s surface.
