Zheng Yu gave a brief description of what he needed to do.
"It's quite interesting that you can think of it this way. The ancestral halls of the people, the temples of worship, the Soul Altars of the ancestors … in theory, these are all under the jurisdiction of our Earth Temple. If you understand the ancestral teachings as a contract of service to a god, then there's no doubt that you can strip the entire Asura clan of their divine abilities and cut off their ability to pass on the Asura body to their descendants. However, it's hard to say if the ancestral teachings are as binding and powerful as a contract of service to a god … "The old drunkard stroked his beard.
"Then it can be enforced?" Zheng Yu's eyes lit up.
If he could grasp the Asura clan's lifeline, not only would he be able to stop them from invading, he could even control them and use them for his own purposes.
"Yes, I can help you find the oaths of our Earth Temple. If the things you saw in the records really exist, then this matter will be easy to handle," the old drunkard said.
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you, teacher." Zheng Yu bowed.
"I'm your subordinate now, so how can you say that I've troubled you? Only a god of your level has the divine right to strip away the ancestral souls of their ancestors," the old drunkard said.
"I've never done that before," Zheng Yu said.
This divine right wasn't something a divine official like Zheng Yu could take away just because he wanted to. Everything had to be reasonable, and he had to find out the cause, effect, and ancient oaths involved.
The temple was very small, almost the size of a woodshed. However, after Drunkard Temple God walked in, the small temple suddenly transformed into a long area. Dusty bookshelves appeared one after another in the area.
The old drunkard waved his hand and flipped through the books on their own. Countless lines of words appeared in the old drunkard's eyes …
"Shall I go get some more wine for you?" Zheng Yu glanced at the empty wine jar and said to the old drunkard.
The old drunkard nodded and continued to search for the relevant oaths.
… …
There weren't many people doing business on the streets. The people of Evernight were in a state of panic, and the people's livelihood had fallen into chaos. Many people had lost their livelihood, and even more people were plagued by inexplicable illnesses …
This was something Zheng Yu didn't want to see the most, but even as a divine official of the temple, he couldn't change the various things brought about by Evernight.
At the end of the street, Zheng Yu saw a rice wine tavern.
Just as he walked in, Zheng Yu's brows furrowed tightly.
"Sir, what would you like to order? We have all kinds of good wine here. Smell it, does it smell good?" A female shop owner walked out in a cool outfit. Her thin clothes were drenched in sweat from her hard work, making her look even more charming.
"You can brew your own rice wine. Three catties." Zheng Yu said as he handed over a piece of silver.
"Sir, do you need anything else?" The female owner leaned over. Her breath carried a strong aroma of wine. It seemed that she had drunk quite a lot.
"No need." Zheng Yu shook his head.
"Are you sure you don't need it?" The female shop owner smiled, her charming eyes rippling with lust.
"I'll spare you on account of the fact that you didn't kill anyone. Witch Acacia, don't try to wear down my patience!" Zheng Yu's voice turned cold, and killing intent appeared in her eyes.
The female shop owner jumped in fright and hurriedly retreated.
She curled up under the table and trembled. She hurriedly said, "High Immortal, please spare me. I'm just doing business. I … I don't have any other intentions."
"I believe in doing business, but it's hard to say if you're doing business or not." Zheng Yu said.
"I … I've only done some improper things with some strong men. I've never harmed anyone."
"Offending public morals can also cause the breakdown of other people's families. You're on your own." Zheng Yu didn't say anything else. He picked up the three catties of wine and left.
The female shop owner was so scared that she didn't dare to come out for a long time. Only when Zheng Yu left did she quietly poke her head out.
She saw that Zheng Yu was walking. After hesitating for a long time, she finally gritted her teeth and followed him.
…
When he returned to the old street temple, the temple door was tightly shut.
Zheng Yu felt a little confused. He used his hand to push open the door, but he found that the wooden door didn't have any latches. He couldn't push it open.
Zheng Yu immediately used his palms to wipe his eyes, and the light from his palms dyed his eyes. Instantly, the small Earth Temple was filled with blood-red light. The terrifying baleful aura seemed to have accidentally opened a door to hell, and released the demon god inside!
"Teacher! Teacher! "
Zheng Yu used his divine force and slammed his palm on the wooden door.
The wooden door shattered into pieces. However, the reason why the door couldn't be opened wasn't because the door was blocked by some kind of force. It was because the temple was filled with disgusting blood worms!
The door shattered, and the Blood Earthworms poured out like floodgates. Zheng Yuyue leaped into the air, and the Blood Earthworms flowed into the old street. At the same time, the Blood Earthworms rushed out into the street, dragging out a withered figure.
His clothes were old and tattered, and he was short. He spent most of his time begging for wine on the old street. Occasionally, he would send lost children back to their courtyards. Sometimes, he would take in homeless children. When a family encountered evil, he would also perform some rituals. However, not many people thought that his rituals were useful … However, no one knew that this drunken old man who guarded the temple was the god of this area!
At this moment, the god of the earth, who was so old that he didn't have much divine force left, was rushed out. He was soaked in the tide of worms. It was a terrifying scene, but his face was serene. It was as if he had been waiting for this day to come.
He was holding two things tightly in his hands.
Obviously, he was keeping them for himself.
Zheng Yu's heart was instantly filled with anger. He looked at the top of the murderous aura and saw a ferocious smiling face. The face was illusory. Obviously, the person wasn't here. However, he could curse people to death from thousands of miles away!
"A teacher for a day, a father for life."
"I'll give you seven days of peace, so you can wear mourning clothes for your old father."
"After seven days, either I'll take your life, or the people around you will die in your place!"
"Of course, you can also run away. This is between me and Zhu Minglang. I can forgive anyone who offends me even once!"
The illusory face said to the furious Zheng Yu with a smile.
Looking at Zheng Yu's reaction, he was smiling like a child who had succeeded in his prank. However, the more he was proud of himself, the more chilling it was!
"Hongmo, you can't be forgiven!"
"Seven days later, neither I nor anyone around me will die. The only one who will perish will be you!!"
Zheng Yu said coldly to the sky above the murderous aura.
