These True Gods expressed their thanks sincerely, one after the other.
After all, Qi Yuan did indeed save their lives.
"You really mean I can ask anything?" Qi Yuan sparks in his eyes.
"Please speak, fellow Daoist!" These True Gods politely responded.
This kind of accidental favor would typically be reciprocated with treasures or favors in return.
"You guys are pretty powerful. Why not become my subjects in Qingshui Village?" Qi Yuan suggested earnestly.
If these True Gods were to join them, the power of Qingshui Village would drastically increase.
Once these words were spoken, all the gods present looked puzzled.
"Are you... joking, Daoist friend?"
All of them were ancient gods, just like Qi Yuan, the Guardian Gods of their respective cities.
They could have superiors, but... they couldn't have a "father"!
The relationship between a Guardian God and his subjects is similar to that of a father and his sons.
