My whole family are full of geniuses, I really don't want to be a succubus!

The fact that the Qingzhou lord casually gave his offspring to a game of Candy Crush shows just how ruthless he is.

Even if your son can see GG resurrected, even if the offspring of a god has no proper blood connection with the god.

Putting all that aside, it shouldn't be like crushing a chick, just casually squashing it, right?

Therefore, Su Yi immediately chose to bring up her godfather and cousin, revealing her background.

Gu Wanquan and Yin Chaoge returned to the wooden boat and stood beside Su Yi, their eyes fixed on the governor of Qingzhou, not daring to relax their vigilance in the slightest.

The Qingzhou lord, dressed in a deep red imperial robe, merely glanced indifferently at Su Yi and calmly stated, "You have trespassed into the River of Oblivion, murdered a deity, and violated divine laws. Even the Luoxia Immortal Sect cannot protect you!"

"I have a letter from the City God of Yongning. After we rescued him, he asked us to report to the Governor about the City God of Yongning being sealed away!" Su Yi said, taking out the letter from the City God of Yongning and holding it up high.

The letter was pulled by a force and flew out of Su Yi's hand, landing in the middle-aged man's hand. After the middle-aged man finished reading the letter, the coldness in his eyes subsided slightly.

"Do you wish to travel through the Wangchuan River in Qingzhou to reach Yongzhou?" the governor asked.

Su Yi quickly said, "Please, Your Majesty, do me this favor!"

The middle-aged man waved the letter in his hand and said with interest, "Sure, but... on what grounds?"

"Why should we? We helped restore the Yongning City God to his divine position and restored peace to the region!" Su Yi quickly said.

"How could a mere county magistrate like him possibly command me? He's taken demons and evil spirits as his own officials; whether he's even fit to be a county magistrate is another matter!" the governor sneered.

Looking at the stern-faced and impartial governor, Su Yi tried to hand over a brocade bag containing ten low-grade spirit stones.

The governor's face immediately darkened as he looked at Su Yi, who was holding the brocade pouch, and he said coldly, "Who do you take me, the governor of Qingzhou, for? Would I, as the ruler of a province, do something like this, bending the law for personal gain?"

Upright and righteous, impartial and incorruptible, showing no mercy whatsoever.

When Su Yi exchanged the low-grade spirit stones for mid-grade spirit stones and handed over the brocade bag, the governor's expression finally turned amiable.

Without leaving a trace, the governor accepted the brocade pouch. His solemn face softened, and looking at the quick-witted Su Yi, he said, "True Master Zhenxia and I are old friends. Now that an old friend's disciple wants to do me a favor, I'm not so heartless as to be unreasonable!"

Su Yi rolled her eyes inwardly, but put on a smile and said, "Of course, who in Qingzhou doesn't know that the Governor is righteous yet possesses a tender heart?"

"Haha, you're quite the clever one. I can let you pass, but there are two methods for you to choose from."

"Please speak, Your Majesty!" Su Yi said hurriedly.

"This River of Oblivion is interconnected, linking countless incense spaces in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It can naturally reach Yongzhou, but beyond my Qingzhou territory, there are four other states and one prefecture. Just this transfer, going through layers of intermediaries, will cost you a lot!" The prefectural lord said, glancing at the storage bag at Su Yi's waist.

Holy crap, it's so dark! Does it suck blood all the way through?

Just how rich were those wealthy men and women in their past lives? They spent hundreds of thousands just to buy a ticket to board the train, and then paid at each stop. What kind of "Immortal Journey" first-class ticket is this? Isn't this a special pig-butchering scam?

Seeing Su Yi's expected shock, the governor spoke mysteriously, "For the second method, I can send you directly to Yongzhou, saving both time and these unseen expenses!"

Su Yi glanced at the governor, full of doubt. He didn't believe that the governor in front of him would be so kind.

"However, I have something I need you to do for me!" The governor kept everyone in suspense before revealing his purpose.

Su Yi had an "I knew it" look on her face, knowing that the old man was up to no good and was really waiting for her here.

You either have to pay or put in the effort; there's no such thing as a free lunch.

Having done anything to make money before transmigrating, Su Yi knew this very well. Based on the principle of saving money wherever possible, Su Yi was still prepared to listen to what this old guy was up to.

"Please, Your Majesty, speak freely!" Su Yi said, cupping his hands in greeting.

The governor coughed lightly, then said with a sigh, "Everyone says becoming a god is good, but do they really think that position of immeasurable lifespan is so easy to attain?"

It feels like you're in Versailles, but the governor's face seems genuinely sincere.

"Young man, you should know that as long as incense offerings and prayers exist, the gods can continue to exist, right?" The governor looked at Su Yi and said, "I've heard that the emperor's health isn't very good!"

Upon hearing the governor's words, Su Yi immediately understood what the governor meant.

As the saying goes, "a new emperor brings a new court." Once the emperor changes and the Imperial Observatory issues a new decree, not only the lords of the provinces, but even the prefectural lords and the gods of the state will be affected.

When a new sage takes over, the memory of that dynasty is erased, and the person is made to serve the new sage.

In the setting of "Immortal Path", the lifespan of gods is linked to the offerings of incense. As long as the incense is burned out, the gods will live forever. Compared to cultivators with a lifespan of 200 years, gods are truly immortal.

But the price of this immortality is not only being confined to a city god's palace, but more cruelly, when the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty changes, it is the time when the gods undergo a major reshuffle.

When the new emperor ascends the throne, the Imperial Astronomical Bureau will reissue imperial edicts, at which time the gods of the Great Zhou will be given new divine status.

At that time, the deity will not only be given new powers, but will also have all memories erased when accepting the new divinity.

Want power and immortality? The price is nothing more than losing your memories.

Erasing all memories is no different from changing to a new god.

Even if the golden body and the deity remain unchanged, the inner essence is no different from that of a different deity.

This is the price that gods pay for immortality. If a sage of a dynasty sits on the throne for a long time, the god's memories can be preserved for seventy or eighty years. But if the sage dies young, the god's memories can be erased three times in ten years.

To put it nicely, gods can live forever; to put it bluntly, gods may not actually live as long as a dog.

However, this is an ironclad rule in the setting of "Immortal Path" and cannot be changed at all.

Could it be that the current state lord wants to preserve his memories and live forever to occupy the position of a god? Su Yi really can't do that.

This involves altering the game's source code, and Su Yi didn't believe that a mere transmigrator like herself could possess such power.

If the governor wants Su Yi to help with this matter, then Su Yi should consider the possibility of incurring a huge loss and whether she has enough spirit stones on her.

Seeing Su Yi lower her head and start rummaging through her storage bag, the governor knew that Su Yi had misunderstood him and quickly said:

"I know this cannot be changed. What I ask for is not myself, but my offspring!"
