Chapter 1170: Chapter 1174: Contract Lamp Child Chapter 1170: Chapter 1174: Contract Lamp Child Zheng Yu lit a piece of paper and threw it into the mass of blood earthworms on the ground.
The blood earthworms imdiately burst into flas; under the covering of sacred fire, these cursed evil insects burned as readily as oil.
Soon, intense fires roared, and the light of the flas turned the old town an all-encompassing red, prompting residents hidden in their hos to involuntarily peek out through the cracks of their windows.
Standing amidst the flas, Zheng Yu propped up the corpse of the Old Temple God of Wine, arranged it at the very center of the temple, and seated it with dignity.
At this mont, the physical body of the Old Temple God of Wine perfectly overlapped with the shape of the Earth Temple God Statue behind him, his soul drifting into the sowhat weathered Earth Temple God Statue like wisps of blue smoke, making the statue look more substantial.
Having taken the two items that the Old Temple God of Wine was clutching tightly from his hands, Zheng Yu stepped back, allowing the divine fire to slowly climb onto his flesh.
Exorcising evil, transforming into a feathered being.
After all these rituals, calmness finally returned to the Earth Temple.
With the Blood Fiends gone and the gate of malevolence closed, Zheng Yu looked at the quiet, empty old temple; he twisted open a jar of wine and began pouring bowls of it in front of the statue.
“Is… is he dead??” At that mont, a woman’s weak inquiry ca from the temple’s entrance.
Glancing over, Zheng Yu saw it was the female owner of the wine store.
Zheng Yu did not answer, but instead, opened the two items that the Old Temple God of Wine had fiercely grasped.
The shop owner hastily brought incense and candles, worshipping earnestly; evidently, she had been blessed by the Old Temple God, despite also being a half-human, half-shade entity.
The Old Temple God of Wine left Zheng Yu two critical items.
The first was a half-torn oath scroll, from the torn edge of which one could see a hint of bloodstain, as if a bloodied hand had stretched out from the void to seize the scroll abruptly.
“It has been foreseen after all,” Zheng Yu said while looking at the half-scroll with bitterness.
He wanted to grasp the lifeline of the Asura clan, but never considered that this move had already been seen through.
Hong Mo did not possess the ability to foresee, yet he had precisely intercepted the Old Temple God precisely when he had found the ancestral teachings for the Asura clan…
Taking a deep breath, both Zheng Yu’s nose and throat felt sowhat sore.
But he still tried to calm himself down; the things that the Old Temple God of Wine clutched tightly even through such a terrifying death were ant to be taken seriously, and he must understand the critical ssage left before his death. Only by thinking calmly could he honor his sacrifice.
Upon opening the other item, the expression on Zheng Yu’s face changed!
Clearly, the item held in the left hand of the Old Temple God of Wine was what he had instructed him to find, which also perfectly explained why the Asura clan would participate in this war. And the other item, which the Old Temple God had grasped desperately while being swallowed by the blood earthworms, revealed the identity of his curse killer. He was telling Zheng Yu how to deal with him!
“Contract Lamp Child…”
The God who governs contracts is one of the most powerful deities.
Contracts between people are often overseen by specialized legal organizations, mostly in the form of governnt offices, which punish those who break contracts and maintain the fairness of the contracts.
Contracts involving deities, or those made with deities, are all governed by the God of the Contract, including the highly potent Servant God Contract!
Contracts signed in a specific manner and with offerings made to the God of the Contract will be empowered with binding forces. Violators will face punishnt from the God of the Contract.
So extrely solemn contracts carry penalties for breach comparable to divine punishnt and curses from the heavens. These curses could even extend to an entire family, all descendants, and may be inherited. The most prominent example of this is the Dwarf Clan, whose descendants are unable to rid themselves of the dwarf curse.
Similarly, the blessings, gifts, and Divine Skills granted by these solemn contracts can also be inherited by descendants. The most prominent example is the Asura clan, whose offspring all possess the Body of Asura!
However, what the Old Drunkard Temple God wanted to inform Zheng Yu of was not just this!
Contract Lamp Child!
A deity that serves the God of the Contract!
They can be considered the servants attending the God of the Contract…
And the true identity of the God of Evil Wishes is one such Contract Lamp Child. He can see all contracts between individuals, between humans and the heavens, between humans and gods, and even between gods!
Similarly, he has the power to make so alterations, so long as the ultimate balance of cause and effect is not severely disrupted, he would not co under scrutiny by the heavens or the God of the Contract. In fact, his displayed Divine Skills are even more potent than those of most True Gods!!
Contract Lamp Child!!
Imbalance!
That is the key!
The Contract Lamp Child must abide by his laws; no matter how horrific the curse killing Spell he uses, he should not let the heavens and the God of the Contract perceive his interference or allow the balance of cause and effect to be disturbed!
But to be always near the river, one’s shoes will inevitably get wet at so point. Zhu Minglang has also told himself, Hua Chou’s evil deeds are too nurous to count, yet evidence of his divine transgressions is elusive!
“In this world, there must be a deity capable of chopping down this Evil God. Now that his divine na and transgressions are known, all that is needed is to find the key evidence of imbalance, and there’s hope to strip him of his Divine form!” Having understood the painstaking intent of the Old Temple God, a fighting spirit surged in Zheng Yu’s heart.
Hua Chou cannot do whatever he pleases; he is certainly not powerful enough to kill whover he wants!
Moreover, in order to instill fear in him, the thods Hua Chou used to kill the Old Drunkard Temple God were rather crude.
Hence, not only did the Old Drunkard Temple God’s right and left hands provide important clues to Zheng Yu, but the death of the Old Drunkard Temple God itself also presented Zheng Yu with an opportunity to overthrow the God of Evil Wishes!
In the right hand of the Old Temple God of Wine was an ancient Jade Baton. This baton is akin to a heavenly scroll made of jade, used by the ancients in ceremonies to write ssages to communicate with the heavens. So common folk rituals also made similar candle and incense scrolls to convey respect to the deities.
As for this Jade Baton, it was evidently an exceptional item that could connect to a certain deity. Turning it over, Zheng Yu discovered that while its front was as clean as a piece of blank paper, the back was sternly inscribed with the words “God of Sky Inspection.”
At the sight of these four words, one can’t help but sense their authority.
Although Zheng Yu is also a deity who hasn’t been part of the divine system for too long, he is aware that neither Superior Gods nor Superior Immortals act at whim; their every action is overseen by a deity wandering the world, who manages and inspects them. Should they be caught in serious mischief and lawless behavior, they would et demise at the hands of Deities dispatched by the heavens!
In other words, if he found the evidence of Hua Chou’s imbalance and presented it to the deity of God of Sky Inspection, he could enlist his Divine Power to launch divine punishnt upon Hua Chou!
And this item should be a punitive divine decree left on earth by that deity.
When he writes Hua Chou’s divine na and evidence of the cri upon it, this punitive divine decree can unleash heavenly punishnt, dealing a heavy blow to Hua Chou, or even chopping down Hua Chou!!
