Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 1158 Aiwass: I have a good relationship with Huan Tiansi
After hearing what Anar said, Aiwas, who was not very interested at first, suddenly became interested.

——The temple of Huantiansi?
The last time he saw the temple of the Ring of Heaven was in the nineteenth circle of the Theocracy.

Hearing this, Ligeia also became interested: "The temple of Huantiansi is not common."

As an ascended sorcerer, she belongs to the Huantiansi faction in terms of power alignment.

Just like Arthur before he ascended to become the Crown Celestial Master. Although this power to change appearance comes from the Butterfly Celestial Master, it is the result of a transaction with the Ring Celestial Master, just like the power of the Great Sin Scholar also comes from the Ring Celestial Master.

She has now completely completed her second transformation and is no longer the Silver Dragon Lolita.

Since defeating the Fallen Angels and absorbing the remnants of Lucifer, Ligeia has now completely transformed into a winged being. The only dragon features that can be seen on her are the pair of curved dragon horns on her head that have become thinner and longer, and a few silver dragon scales on her forearms and calves.

At this moment, Ligeia has a pair of soft and warm white wings behind her ears, feet, and waist. With long silver-white hair and crystal-blue pupils, she looks as holy as an angel.

And she looked much older than before... Ligeia looked like a little girl before, but now she looked to be around eighteen or early twenties, and looked like the same age as Isabel.

Ligeia's unusually sacred posture frightened Anar.

To these desert people, compared to the holy and inviolable gods and angels... demons are more common and easier for them to accept.

Because demons are most likely living around them, and they have seen many of them. In the desert, even cruel and evil demons are just a "living scimitar". But anything that is too sacred and clean is something they absolutely cannot touch and dare not approach.

No matter if it was a big shot from another place or a private collection of a good master, it was something that these lowly people dared not touch. Even if they only contaminated a piece of the wing with their hands stained with sand, they would surely die.

Boys and girls who are too clean and beautiful may be captured and made slaves because of their beauty; cloth that is too clean may be taken away or torn by jealous people; gems that are too clear may be stolen or robbed by all kinds of people...

Over time, an instinct of "fear of cleanliness" is formed.

When Anar saw Ligeia coming towards her, she was so frightened that she trembled all over, leaned back as far as she could, and dared not move.

Although Aiwass didn't quite understand the principle behind this, he could understand Anar's fear.

He reached out and pulled Ligeia, and explained casually: "This is not surprising. The ancient country of Parthia is currently the only country where a large number of snake people still survive. Nowadays, the snake people in both Taichu and Avalon are almost gone. Apart from Parthia, they can probably only be found in the southern continent.

"And the main god worshipped and offered sacrifices to by the snake people is Huan Tiansi."

"Shouldn't it be the Snake Father?"

Ligeia was confused: "Snake people are a race created by the Snake Father, right?"

"That's true, but Snake Father doesn't care about these trivial matters. It's not that Snake Father is indifferent... It should be said that since the time before the High Heaven, few Pillar Gods have cared about such things."

Aiwas shook his head: "Besides the Blood Sky Master and the Fog Sky Master, there aren't many racial gods in the Dream World."

After all, a long time ago, the high gods also lived together with mortals on earth. Before the connection between the heaven and the earth, the reason why these races were born was to test the ability of the source river of creation. The gods neither needed these races to provide faith nor did they need them to expand their territory.

——It was like some kind of AI drawing software that the Sun Path Pillar God developed and let other colleagues play with it. Then everyone either had interest, had nothing to do, or wanted to give face, and everyone made a picture... and then the topic was over. Few people cared about what happened to the picture they made.

After the Jedi and Heaven were connected, the Pillar Gods lived in the dream world where they could create things with their thoughts. The material world became less meaningful to them... Just like after entering university, the classmates groups from junior high and high school are no longer of much significance; after graduating from university, they may not even open the classmates group anymore, and at most they will just have private chats with a few good friends.

——Supreme Heaven is like that guy who, after graduation, continues to be very active in university clubs, and even remotely controls his "direct descendants" to fight for power with another group of younger generations he has never even met.

Because the other pillar gods are too lazy to care, the giants who are obviously favored by the pillar gods will kill people in the material world.

"Compared to the Snake Father, Huan Tiansi is more like 'one of our own'. He is a genuine snake man, just like Acropolis and Yao Tiansi. They really take care of the snake people, just like the Crown Master will take better care of humans."

Aiwass explained softly, "The reason why the snake people can still survive today is largely due to the care of the Medicine God and the Ring God. Therefore, almost every snake person has mastered herbs and rituals."

——Even if it is not intentional bias, the subconscious likes and dislikes will have an impact. After all, not all gods are as benevolent as Shadow Tiansi... The Silver Crown Dragon has never accepted dwarves or snakemen as apostles, no matter how much they respect authority and worship the Crown Master; most of Hengwo's dancers are elves, or humans who are the "elf lite" version.

Even if it is just a difference in aesthetics such as "which appearance is more preferred", it will affect the individual likes and dislikes of the superior, and thus lead to the inevitable unfairness of competition.

After all, the selection criteria for apostles are entirely based on the preferences of the gods, and the power as "salary" is also paid by the gods themselves. "Beauty" is indeed one of the fundamental laws of the world, and the influence of "personal preferences" cannot be ignored. As long as the gods are willing to sacrifice enough power, even a useless mortal can be promoted to an apostle.

——This is also the reason why the dwarves hope that Flame God or Rock God can be promoted to Pillar God.

They are the ancestral race of the dwarves and are truly our own people.

Although in the eyes of humans and elves, the idea of ​​sending a "pillar god belonging to the dwarves" by any means necessary is narrow-minded, short-sighted, and even ridiculous...but for the dwarves, this is indeed necessary to a certain extent.

If you have never experienced this kind of hardship, you will not be able to understand their obsession.

"Anar," Aiwas turned back to look at the guide, "Change direction, I want to go to the Snake Temple."

Anar was shocked when she heard this: "But, sir..."

She wanted to refuse - because this meeting was not planned at all.

After all, her job for a living is to ferry people back and forth from one side to the other.

Not everyone is like Aiwas and his group, who were picked up by luxurious carriages... For mortals with insufficient supplies and weak physical strength, the temple where they can rest in the middle is the hope of survival. If the snake people refuse them entry, they will only die.

So Anar didn't want to offend the snake people.

"Don't worry, Anar."

Aiwass comforted him in a gentle voice, "Let's not talk about it for now. I just told you... This job is inherently unsafe. It will lead to death sooner or later. And we won't break into the temple... I don't have any conflicts with Huan Tiansi. It's better to say that we have a very close relationship.

"As long as the snakemen guarding the temple refuse to let us in, we can just turn around and leave. How about that? Trust me, Anar. After all, it would be hard for us to find our way without you."

“…Well, then.”

Anar reluctantly agreed and confirmed with Aiwass again and again: "If the snake people don't want us to enter, please don't attack them."

She wasn't worried about anything happening to the group.

The people of the desert are accustomed to judging the strength of others by their clothing and mental state. This has been engraved into their instincts. Many gentlemen like to play the game of "incognito", pretending to be civilians out for a walk. If they are not recognized, they will lose their heads.

Instead, she was worried that she might bring trouble to the snake people...

Although the snake people are cold, they have been partners for several years.

"Do not worry."

Aiwass said meaningfully: "Maybe they will warmly welcome us in."

How can it be--

Anar pursed her lips, not very happy.

How could a cold snake-man be so enthusiastic towards humans? Sure enough, the man in fancy clothes always lies!
