Chapter 218 Escort the Statue Mission
Offspring? Who? The poor kid you just slapped and is still stuck in his golden body, waiting to be resurrected?
Su Yi looked at the governor of Qingzhou in front of her with a blank expression. He didn't seem like the kind of model parent who loved his children.
The governor of Qingzhou noticed Su Yi's expression and knew what Su Yi was thinking. He simply said calmly, "He is called an heir, but he is just a character created by the people."
"He did not exist in the past, nor in the future; he simply became a nominal offspring of the gods in a daze."
Every deity bestowed by the Imperial Observatory can be traced back to a corresponding figure in the long river of history.
These figures were either of noble character or had done things that benefited the country and its people. They were spontaneously worshipped by the people and revered as city gods. Later, they were officially recognized by the Imperial Observatory and became orthodox deities.
Even after the new emperor ascends the throne and their memories are completely erased, these orthodox deities can still find traces of themselves in inscriptions and ancient texts.
For example, the City God of Yongning, and the Lord of Qingzhou, although they are wandering spirits, they once truly existed.
But the offspring of gods are merely extensions of the power of incense offerings from the gods, illusory figures created by the power of their wishes.
When dynasties changed, the gods were re-established, and these so-called divine offspring were reduced to ashes and ceased to exist.
The governor of Qingzhou softened his tone and said gently, "Although he and I are not related by blood, he has called me father for decades. Although he was a bit domineering, he was still a good person at heart. He shouldn't have ended up like this."
After listening to the heartfelt words of the Qingzhou Governor, Su Yi paused for a moment before asking, "What methods does the Governor have? And what do you require of us?"
The ruler of Qingzhou spoke up, "Please help my good-for-nothing son find a secluded temple in the countryside, or some unclaimed land, so he can become a free-spirited wandering deity. That would be the best place for him!"
Su Yi scratched his head, looking somewhat troubled, and said, "It's not that we're unwilling to help, but I don't know where there are any vacant divine positions. We can't just find a wandering deity, kill them, and then let the young master take their place, can we?"
The governor of Qingzhou said, "Of course. I've already found a rural temple for him about 500 li from the city. All you need to do is escort him there!"
"Escort? In Qingzhou territory, do we still need to escort him? What blind fool would dare to kidnap the governor's son?" Su Yi asked, puzzled.
The Lord of Qingzhou looked at Su Yi expressionlessly and said, "For him to leave, you need to take his golden statue from the City God Temple in the mortal realm. That's the first point. From that moment on, he will only have the power of incense offerings left, without divine protection. Naturally, evil spirits will covet him along the way. That's the second point. Thirdly, I have some problems finding that deserted temple, and I may need your help!"
I'm so powerful, this is too much trouble. I'd better check if I brought enough spirit stones!
Upon hearing the governor's number one, two, three, Su Yi, sensing trouble, immediately looked down to check her storage bag.
Seeing Su Yi rummaging through his storage bag again, the Lord of Qingzhou knew Su Yi didn't want to agree. He gritted his teeth and said, "If you agree, I can use my divine authority as the Lord of Qingzhou to divine the secrets of heaven for you! Moreover, I can help you remove the restrictions on your imperial robes!"
Ha, that's hilarious. You're trying to deduce the secrets of the universe in front of a visionary player like me who knows the entire timeline?
The restrictions on these clothes, once I return to the Luoxia Immortal Sect and find my godfather, will they still be able to be lifted?
Do you think I care?
Such a complicated task, even a dog wouldn't do it.
"Ding! Daily task completed. Skill effect can be applied!"
"Ding! Daily quest triggered: Escort the Deity's Offspring to the Temple. Experience level +1!"
Hearing the system notification in his ear, Su Yi immediately looked up, grabbed the hand of the Qingzhou Governor, and said enthusiastically, "Look at you, Uncle, we hit it off immediately. Your son is my son too. Don't worry, leave this to us!"
Time travel is great! Not only do you get daily quest rewards, but you also get rewards from the NPCs themselves. You should have told me about the double reward quests earlier!
If the dog won't do it, I will!
After finalizing the decision to accept the escort mission, the Qingzhou Governor pointed at Su Yi and the other three, and divine power gathered around them.
Su Yi felt a blur before her eyes, and the four of them appeared in front of a huge city.
"Luohua City!"
Qingzhou, the capital of Qingzhou, has a population of one million. Built against the mountains, it is also known as the Mountain City and is one of the major cities in the southwest.
Chen Feng, who had remained silent, glanced at Luo Huacheng, frowned, and said, "Junior Brother Su, won't this delay our Southwest Grand Competition?"
Su Yi shook his head and said, "With the divine teleportation array, we can complete this mission within nine days and catch up. It's just an escort mission, it won't take much trouble."
Confident Su Yi led the group into Luohua City. The wide streets and bustling crowds showcased the prosperity of this city as the capital of Qingzhou.
The hawkers calling out their wares, the shops dripping wet on the street, and the gazes cast upon the group made the young cultivators from the immortal sect feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Looking at the familiar streets in front of her, Su Yi couldn't help but complain in her heart about the dog planner of "Immortal Path". Every city was built to be almost the same, and it was obvious that they were copied and pasted from the same model. They really took the easy way out!
During his journey to immortality, Su Yi mainly stayed in the southeast. He had hardly ever been to Luohua City or even Qingzhou, let alone Luohua City.
However, the city's structure is very similar to that of the other cities in the southeast, with almost no difference.
The city was composed of 54 wards of varying sizes, with the wards serving as the starting point. The City God Temple was usually located in the 54th ward, which was the northwesternmost ward of the city.
Following her memory of "The Immortal Path," Su Yi led the three of them with ease to a bustling temple with a thriving incense offering ceremony.
Compared to the somewhat shabby courtyard in Yongning County, this temple appears much more magnificent.
The massive red courtyard walls, the blue glazed tiles, and the ubiquitous shrines and incense burners make it far more bustling than the City God Temple in Yongning County.
In contrast to the meager presence of a single temple keeper guarding the gate, this City God Temple is guarded by squads of mortals clad in armor.
A massive red lacquered gate, three zhang tall, stood guard over two imposing stone lions, each one zhang tall, with one hundred and eight enormous gold rivets neatly nailed to the gate.
A gilded black plaque hangs high above the temple, inscribed with:
"The City God of Qingzhou!"
Su Yi and her three companions stood out somewhat in front of the temple. Gu Wanquan and the other two were dressed as cultivators, which was already conspicuous, not to mention that Su Yi was wearing a crown robe that only gods would wear.
They stood there so brazenly in front of the temple, dressed as deities, as if in a provocation.
Under the watchful eyes of those around them, the guards patrolling the temple began to silently converge on the direction where the four were.
Su Yi was still stroking her chin, lost in thought:
"How can we move that unfortunate child's idol without attracting attention?"
