Chapter 448: Keeping a Low Profile

“He’s here, God Ye is here!”A large crowd had gathered by the river bank. They rushed over from the vicinity. Their eyes glowed passionately as they stared at Ye Lingchen while screaming his name.

They had even forgotten their fear for the enormous Old Tortoise. Some of them even had the urge to swim toward Ye Lingchen right then. A small group of them started to worship Old Tortoise on their knees, claiming it to be Tortoise Minister that lived for tens of thousands of years and had powers.

“Hum—”

Old Tortoise let out a low groan, then lifted its giant head and sprayed a stream of water from its mouth. It was like a hose spraying water everywhere.

Although it was rather mild, it managed to have the crowd back off. Instead of being offended, they were instead laughing out loudly.

“This is fun…”

Several kids were rejoicing as they laughed.

The recent weather was on the warm side, so that spray of water was harmless and helped them cool down.

“Guys, please make a clearing for me to place the bus. The passengers are in shock and need some space,” Ye Lingchen explained calmly. “Also, can some of the stronger ones please carry the passengers off the bus please.”

“Sure thing! Make way, people. Don’t get in God Ye’s way!” someone immediately exclaimed.

The crowd was not afraid of Old Tortoise. Instead, they stood by the side and slowly guided people from the car off Old Tortoise’s back.

“Count me in!”

“I can help too!”

People continuously volunteered themselves.

Ye Lingchen was in charge of bringing the passengers out of the bus, then handed them over to the crowd below.

Very quickly, all the passengers were saved. Quite a number of them were still shaking from the lingering fear. They all looked at Ye Lingchen thankfully.

Old Tortoise sheepishly slanted its body while Ye Lingchen gave it a shove, causing the bus to immediately tumble down from its back.

At that point, the rescue operation had come to an end!

“God Ye, I’m your fan. Can I get your autograph?”

“God Ye, my friends love you. Can you take a picture with me?”

“God Ye, we’re lucky to have you here.”

“Wow, is this the Black Warrior? He’s so huge! So cool.”

…

With the rescue completed, the crowd immediately went wild. They looked at Ye Lingchen with passion burning in their eyes.

It was not for show. Based on Ye Lingchen’s current popularity, his fanbase definitely exceeded that of an A-list celebrity. Furthermore, he had just saved a bus full of people, thus achieving a compounding effect.

Fortunately, Old Tortoise was there to provide cover for him. Otherwise, Ye Lingchen would have been swallowed by the crowd—especially the female fans. Their gazes were so intense that it made Ye Lingchen uncomfortable, causing him to have the urge to run away. ‘A guy does need to be careful while being outside.’

“Brother God Ye, Niuniu loves you!”

Right then, a little girl around five to six years old voiced out. Her eyes were glowing brightly when looking at Ye Lingchen and her voice was extremely clear.

Ye Lingchen smiled at the girl and replied gently, “Brother God Ye loves you too. Niuniu is a good girl.”

“Mommy, even Brother God Ye is praising me,” the little girl excitedly told her mother proudly.

Her mother nodded, then looked helplessly at Ye Lingchen. “God Ye, this kid had been a big fan of yours ever since watching Life’s Struggles and claims to be your fan wherever she goes.”

“Hahaha, I didn’t expect to have such a cute fan. I should celebrate this,” Ye Lingchen replied while laughing out loud.

“I’m not the only one. Our whole class loves Brother God Ye,” said the little girl in all seriousness. “However, I’m the group leader of the fan club in our class.”

Her words caused the crowd to laugh.

Ye Lingchen nodded along as he had a rough idea of the cause.

Ever since he practiced Qi Refinement, his body had spiritual energy. Furthermore, his attitude had begun to go beyond this world. Little kids had sensitive senses and would probably find him to be comfortable to look at, therefore loving him.

“Brother God Ye, can I take a picture with you?” the little girl asked sheepishly with an eager tone in her voice.

“Of course,” Ye Lingchen replied.

Upon hearing that, the little girl immediately ran toward him.

“Be careful!” her mother was scared, quickly chasing after her and looked fearfully at Old Tortoise.

“Don’t worry mommy. That’s Black Warrior. It’s good and won’t hurt me.” The girl was brave. She showed no signs of fear and started climbing up Old Tortoise’s back all on her own.

“That’s right. Black Warrior won’t hurt people.” Ye Lingchen smiled and pulled the girl up.

“Hmm.”

As if supportive of Ye Lingchen’s claim, Old Tortoise nodded cooperatively as its mouth curled to show a smile.

Unfortunately, that smile was not very effective. In some ways, it looked even more terrifying.

Following that, Ye Lingchen hugged her and took a picture with her on Old Tortoise’s back. Countless bystanders looked at the girl enviously, wishing for themselves to be up there instead.

What followed next was them uploading it to their WeChat Moments.

[God Ye is really friendly, even friendlier than on the show.]

[I’m jealous of that little girl. Why is he not hugging me instead? God Ye’s hugs must be very comfortable!]

That picture turned into another hotly debated topic online.

Sirens could be heard as the rescue teams rushed to the scene.

Ye Lingchen took note of the situation, then smiled at the crowd. “Since the rescue team is here, I should get going.”

With that said, he gave the crowd no time to react and floated away along the river on Old Tortoise’s back. The crowd could only look at the figure on the tortoise back. For some time, his clothes fluttered in the river breeze, mesmerizing the crowd.

That image was uploaded onto the internet and was used by many people as their background image for some time.

[There were tales of Fei Yi flying on a yellow crane and Zhang Guolao ascension to immortality on a donkey. Now, we have God Ye saving people on Old Tortoise. Such wonderful tales!]

[Keeping a low profile. God Ye’s behavior is that of an enlightened person. Amazing!]

[What a wonderful thing it would be if one could enjoy the view of dusk and dawn on the tortoise’s back with God Ye.]

[God Ye’s charms are boundless. Even Black Warrior submitted to him. As expected of the title of God Ye!]

…

News regarding God Ye saving people on Black Warrior was published by all major news platforms, and Old Tortoise was officially named as Black Warrior by various media. Some drama seekers even took the news of Black Warrior’s appearance as an auspicious sign from heaven, claiming that it was a sign for China to rise in power.

This news hit the headlines before the news of the giant python and Old Tortoise had calmed down. Even the official news site by the government had applauded God Ye’s actions. All that resulted in the country listing Old Tortoise as a protected species, showing off its special status…
