Another deity appeared, and the commoners who had just gotten up hurriedly bowed down again.
Yun Shou, however, only noticed a young man who hadn't moved.
"Sure enough, sometimes people don't notice who gave anything, they only notice who didn't give anything." He thought to himself, then waved for the others to do as they pleased and walked up to the young man.
The young man stood there, his face deathly pale, his gaze following the corpse from which its brains had been removed. He muttered something to himself, his eyes filled with regret.
Until Yun Shou's tall figure covered and enveloped him.
He suddenly came to his senses, knelt down, kowtowed and begged for mercy. He was terrified by the fact that Yu Tianya had taken human brains alive, and was afraid that the tall god in front of him could also take his life in the blink of an eye.
Yun Shou asked him directly in his mind.
"Are you afraid, afraid of that god that preys on human brains?"
The young man was alarmed, but through the mental communication, he realized that the tall deity meant him no harm, so he carefully and honestly replied, "Yes."
"If you're afraid, why not move to another street? Isn't the flower-lined street next door lovely?"
Yun Shou felt that his question was somewhat related to the idea of "why not eat meat porridge," but there was nothing he could do; he genuinely didn't understand.
"No, no, Your Majesty! Our dwellings were assigned by the royal family. I originally worshipped the Hearth God, but because of my mistake... my neglect of faith, I was banished from Hearth Street..."
The young man broke down: "Then, just when Sky Raven Street was short of residents, I was assigned here..."
Good heavens, no wonder some gods kill people every day without fear of wiping out their followers. They can always ask for more people from above to replenish the human resources they consume.
As long as it's not too excessive, the "believers" under his command are endless, with one batch being cut off and another transplanted.
Yun Shou also recalled that when he flew to Shenjing, he had seen men and women, young and old, migrating towards the city from below, and their faces all had the look of pilgrimage on them.
But most of these commoners who have just arrived in the capital and are meeting countless gods will probably be assigned to the streets of evil gods to serve as supplies.
It's so tragic, just thinking about it makes me feel hopeless.
Moreover, for those outside the realm of gods, entering the capital is difficult, and leaving is equally difficult.
This bloated city has maxed out the technology of its census, with street deities checking believers at fixed times, and deserters facing extremely high-level pursuit.
"Those outside the city want to get in, and those inside the city want to get out."
"Some things, you can only hear about them and never have a concrete feeling until you experience them yourself."
Yun Shou felt that he had gained a lot today, not only gaining a lot of experience but also clarifying his true intentions.
"Yes, this fulfilling day is at least comparable to choosing a simulated memory, and it's definitely more rewarding than the first time I experienced the memories of being a fisherman and dying on the battlefield."
"Once I reach the seventh realm, I can go and explore the Azure Domain. Wouldn't that be like experiencing the life of someone who's been through the life of someone who's been through the seventh, eighth, or ninth realm?"
Yun Shou condensed his Yuan energy into a needle and shot it out as he passed by Yu Tianya, the needle piercing through Yu Tianya's brain.
After crossing the street, he arrived at Tianyuan Peak and headed straight up.
There are ordinary people guarding Tianyuan Peak, who are responsible for preventing unauthorized people from climbing this sacred peak.
They rushed down the mountain, shouting at Yun Shou, but as they got closer and realized the difference in size, they all stepped back and bowed.
They were just some people coming down the mountain; how dare they stop the gods coming up the mountain?
Tianyuan Peak has many independent areas. In one of them, Yunshou sensed a large amount of vigorous blood and energy. Upon closer inspection, he discovered it was a "Deity Training Base".
Inside were people with awkward and strange postures, and all of them were martial artists.
He saw a lizard woman covered in scales, a grandmaster in her thirties, who must have been aided by the Divine Silver Water.
She must be the "Ice Goddess".
Like the Iceberg Hatchling, let's leave her alone for now.
...
After a while, the clouds were swept away, and vast primordial energy appeared like a mountain, surging like a sea.
A row of strange people with white makeup on their faces were bowing in front of Yun Shou.
One of them stood at the very front, the sovereign of this area of the royal family: Tenmoto no Yamamoto.
Yun Shou coughed lightly: "I've been annoyed with you parasites for a long time (days). To be honest, I've tried to kill you more than once, but now I've decided to give you a chance."
Tenmoto no Yoshino understood the three languages, and upon hearing this, he bowed and asked, "Great God, what are your instructions?"
"I want you to give orders to first abolish the evil gods, and to gather and kill all those who have stained their hands with blood in the name of the gods—if you can't deal with them, I can take action myself."
"I want this land to be free of human sacrifice, where everyone can survive through hard work and effort, taxes to be reduced many times over, and the monarchy to be changed from a bloodline inheritance system to a public election system."
"I want you to use your covert influence to reduce the real gods to cultural symbols, and then within fifty years you must also be demoted from royalty to the same level as the common people, so that any commoner can stand tall and look you in the eye and communicate with you."
"Understand?"
Tenmoto no Yasunaga screamed, "How is this possible? You are destroying this three-thousand-year-old kingdom!"
Bang!
Yun Shou slapped him away, sending him flying like a lump of flesh towards an uninhabited area at the foot of the mountain.
Hundreds of bridges of the spirit were built, conveying his will like a storm: "I'm not satisfied with the one just now, you all choose another leader."
Suddenly, someone from the royal family below shouted in three languages: "This order cannot be carried out!"
"You've gone too far, you powerful martial artist from another realm!"
Yun Shou, who was sitting in a high position, suddenly leaned out and asked, "Who is it? Which little mouse is opposing me?"
Silence fell over the room, and a middle-aged man lowered his head.
Yun Shou: "Actually, I knew it was you a long time ago. I was just teasing you."
The middle-aged man kept his head down.
"Look up, my eyes!"
The middle-aged man suddenly jolted awake, his face pale as he looked up and saw Yun Shou staring elsewhere. He breathed a sigh of relief.
But in an instant, Yun Shou's gaze returned to him, meeting his eyes: "Was it fun?"
The next moment, he was also pulled out of the crowd and slapped into a pulp.
Master Yun was kind-hearted and did not want these bloodsucking parasites to suffer any more pain.
Okay, actually he had a premonition that many would be killed and didn't want to waste time.
"Furthermore, I am not a warrior from another realm, I am a god, I am the supreme deity—the Great Annihilation Demon God!"
Yun Shou exerted mental pressure: "What I said is the truth. Where's the next leader? Come out!"
An old man stepped forward: "Respected Great Demon God of Annihilation, the reforms you proposed are too radical and will cause great chaos!"
Yun Shou paused for a moment: "You mean, in front of a powerful figure like me who could easily exterminate your entire clan, you gave up the chance to survive, even if it meant being destroyed and becoming parasites?"
"Between life and death, did you choose to die rather than surrender?"
"King Hagi, you lot."
He raised his palm: "My mistake, I underestimated your determination."
