Even the Dynastic Karmic Luck of a third-rank County Princess of Qingping could not compare to the united will of the hundreds of thousands of people in this prefecture.

Even ants in a vast multitude are not afraid of the emperor's wrath, let alone a third-rank county princess like Yin Yunze.

At this moment, with his consciousness focused entirely on this mortal body, Yin Yunze was able to maintain a relative calm.

Several days ago, the power of will entwined around that divine body made Yin Yunze almost lose control of himself.

It was through this that Yin Yunze discovered a flaw in the Innate Holy Spirit.

It seems that those Innate Holy Spirit are more easily influenced by the will and desires of the people.

Normally it wouldn't be a problem, but in situations where everyone is united, it can somewhat impair judgment.

"Those Innate Holy Spirit often meet this fate."

Looking at Yin Yunze, the Prefectural City God shook his head and poured himself a cup. "You may have progressed faster than ordinary gods like us. But in the end, were you truly acting according to your own desires?"

In fact, in the eyes of the Prefectural City God, Yin Yunze's style of doing things since his birth has been somewhat outrageous.

He provided relief to the disaster victims, killed the City God, exterminated all demons, and stabilized the drought.

These things, one by one, are things that only a normal god could do.

No one will say how long Yin Yunze spent resolving, or is about to resolve, these issues.

Most importantly, Yin Yunze is still a child who is only six months old.

In the eyes of the shrewd and calculating Prefectural City God, Yin Yunze was perhaps nothing more than a pitiful wretch driven forward by the will of the people from beginning to end.

"Of course I'm doing it according to my own ideas!"

Yin Yunze naturally held a completely different view on this matter compared to that of the Prefectural City God.

You asked if the things Yin Yunze did were influenced by willpower, and Yin Yunze doesn't deny that they weren't.

However, Yin Yunze definitely disagrees with the notion that willpower played a dominant role.

Even though things have gone a bit too far now, and the power of will has blocked Yin Yunze's escape route.

But in the very beginning, it was Yin Yunze who first came up with the idea of solving the drought.

"However, what I'm thinking about is also what the people want!"

As soon as Yin Yunze uttered those words, the collective willpower of the entire Anqing Prefecture rose to a new level.

An invisible light seemed to emanate from Yin Yunze, causing even the Prefectural City God to squint.

His gaze lowered slightly, revealing his mortal demonic body, yet his face also displayed a hint of divine holiness.

"They say I'm a god—"

"Actually, I know I'm just an ordinary person—"

"But they say I am a god!"

They are crying, begging me to help them----

"I simply can't just stand by and do nothing—"

Although he felt that Yin Yunze's words were somewhat nonsensical, the Prefectural City God knew one thing very clearly.

The Primordial Lady of the Azure Heavens before him had reached the most crucial step.

Furthermore, based on the wishes and power of all people, we can fulfill our great vows and forge a true Prefecture God status.

This was not an imperial decree, but a third-rank county Prefecture God forcibly elevated by the Dynastic Karmic Luck —a mere castle in the air, a divine status.

Rather, it is rooted in the hearts of the people, regardless of the changing dynasties.

The divine status of the Prefecture God retains the hearts of the people and remains unharmed.

If we take a step back----

No, Primordial Lady of the Azure Heavens, there is no way to retreat.

This is the price of manipulating public opinion.

As Yin Yunze spoke these words, on the ground...

The palanquin carrying the statue of Green Hill Yi Yun arrived at the newly built County Princess of Qingping Temple.

The group of priestesses, led by Sun Qin, dispersed, and the eight priestesses placed the palanquin on the ground.

Soon, a group of people dressed in official robes appeared before the palanquin.

Looking at the Primordial Lady of the Azure Heavens through a curtain, the leading official unfolded a yellow cloth.

Upon seeing the yellow cloth, Liu Zhengyuan led everyone to kneel down.

"By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: In the primordial void, the Purple Palace manifests its celestial signs. Now, the Primordial Lady of the Azure Heavens has descended to the mortal realm, dispelling calamities and saving humanity—manifesting her compassionate light in the fields and bestowing sweet rain upon the parched earth. Moved by her holy virtue, she is hereby granted the title of Qingping Chengtian Hushi County Lord,"—ranking comparable to the Earthly Deities, enjoying the incense offerings of the mortal world—acting expediently to bring peace and prosperity to the people—this is the imperial decree!

As the official finished reading the last word, Sun Qin stood up and accepted the imperial edict.

The people of Anqing City cheered.

But in a realm unseen by ordinary people, Yin Yunze saw it.

Taking this imperial decree ceremony as an opportunity, the aspirations within Anqing Prefecture were ignited.

It truly solidified into a dragon, seemingly brought to life, complete with scales and claws, and its whiskers fluttering.

After the Votive-Power True Dragon manifested, it soared and arrived in front of Yin Yunze.

However, the first thing the Votive-Power True Dragon of the people, did when he looked at Yin Yunze was to scrutinize him.

"My lord, it seems I must begin."

Under the gaze of the Votive-Power True Dragon, Yin Yunze turned and gave the Prefectural City God a final greeting.

This time, the Prefectural City God also became solemn and bowed to Yin Yunze.

"May the Anqing Prefecture City God, Yan Zaiming, grant peace and prosperity to the County Lord of Qingqiu, Green Hill Yi Yun, and may your martial prowess flourish!"

The next moment, Yin Yunze, enveloped in lightning, landed on the Qingnü Hall below.

Sensing the return of the divine statue to its rightful place, half of the mortal consciousness separated and entered the divine body.

At the same time, the mortal body also distributes its attention to all believers it can notice.

How could such a grand spectacle be without an audience!

"Here we go."

"As Your Majesty commands!"

Following Yin Yunze's command, countless minor Orthodox God in Anqing Prefecture sprang into action.

All of Primordial Lady of the Azure Heavens's followers suddenly saw a scene.

Inside a temple, a giant Nine-Tailed White Fox was sleeping peacefully.

The next moment, the Nine-Tailed White Fox opened its eyes and manifested human form.

This green-eyed girl with fox ears and nine tails was none other than Primordial Lady of the Azure Heavens.

With a single step, Primordial Lady of the Azure Heavens leaped directly to a deserted place.

Then, a gigantic dragon head descended from the sky.

The dragon's head looked down at the Nine-Tailed Fox woman, who was tiny in comparison.

Undeterred, the Nine-Tailed Fox woman looked at the enormous dragon head and proclaimed loudly, "I am the Princess of Qingping Chengtian, the Protector of the World!"

"I am the Primordial Lady of the Azure Heavens!"

"I am, Qingnü!"

"I am Green Hill Yi Yun!"

As Yin Yunze called out repeatedly, the Votive-Power True Dragon arrived just inches above Yin Yunze's head.

With its mouth slightly open, the Votive-Power True Dragon revealed two rows of sharp teeth to Yin Yunze.

At the same time, a low dragon roar resounded from his throat.

However, upon seeing this scene and hearing the meaning behind the dragon's roar, Yin Yunze smiled instead.

"Come with me to Suppress Evil!"

With a tremendous dragon roar that seemed to resound in everyone's hearts, the Votive-Power True Dragon pounced on Yin Yunze without hesitation.

The next moment, the Votive-Power True Dragon soared into the sky, while the Nine-Tailed Fox Girl stood perfectly fine at the dragon's head.

Carrying Yin Yunze, the Votive-Power True Dragon let out a series of dragon roars, twisted its body, and flashed to the front of a royal tomb.

Many locals in Qingling County can recognize the royal tomb in the picture as the Tomb of Prince Jing.

As if sensing the threat of the Votive-Power True Dragon, two streams of black and white energy rose from within the Tomb of Prince Jing.

The black and white energies intertwined and transformed into a demon god with white armor and black skin, standing several meters tall.

"Really----"

Seeing this, Yin Yunze understood why the Prefectural City God was so adamant about not getting involved in the matter.

Because this Supreme Elder of the Yin Immortal Sect is not completely dead, and may not even be in a state of suspended animation.

The resistance brought by these Black-and-White Demon God may not be great, but at least it will make the Supreme Elder of the Yin Immortal Sect remember those who have provoked him.

However, things had already come to this point, and Yin Yunze was already prepared to act.

If Yin Yunze were to back out now, the Votive-Power True Dragon currently serving as her mount would probably be the first to turn around and bite her.

Faced with the Black-and-White Demon God who was about to erupt, the Votive-Power True Dragon narrowed its eyes slightly and pinned it to the spot.

With a flick of his wrist, a long spear adorned with a black flag appeared in Yin Yunze's hand.

However, Yin Yunze did not immediately wave the Demon-Summoning Banner, but instead shouted, "Where is Zhou Changqing of the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau!"

"Your humble servant is here!"

At Yin Yunze's call, Zhou Changqing, who was surrounded by the Dynastic Karmic Luck, appeared at the edge of Tomb of Prince Jing.

Looking up at Yin Yunze standing on the Votive-Power True Dragon, Zhou Changqing felt utterly helpless.

Is this really something that a minor official of the sixth rank like him should get involved in?

The Black-and-White Demon God alone were enough to terrify Zhou Changqing in the past, let alone the real object in Tomb of Prince Jing.

Yin Yunze naturally wouldn't give Zhou Changqing a chance to back out.

"Zhou Changqing, I, the county magistrate, grant you the privilege of using the fortune bestowed upon you by my third-rank noble title!"

As Yin Yunze spoke, the phoenix coronet and wedding robes of a third-rank county princess first appeared on Yin Yunze's body.

Immediately, the phoenix coronet and embroidered robes transformed into a dense purple qi, landing on Zhou Changqing and manifesting as a ceremonial robe of destiny.

However, Zhou Changqing was not wearing the phoenix coronet and wedding robes of a duchess, but rather the formal attire of a third-rank marquis.

"Zhou Changqing! Suppress Evil!"

Following Yin Yunze's order, Zhou Changqing stopped thinking about anything else and instantly suppressed any other distracting thoughts in his mind.

The fortune of a fourth-rank prefect, plus the fortune of a third-rank noble.

This was also a rare opportunity for Zhou Changqing to gain experience.

Slowly forming hand seals, Zhou Changqing murmured softly.

The spellcasting process wasn't long, but it felt like an eternity.

Zhou Changqing's last sentence was clear enough for everyone to hear.

"----How vast is the weight of this tripod, how boundless are the mountains and rivers! The Weight of the Realm!"

With Zhou Changqing's final, fierce shout, the Dynastic Karmic Luck from him was instantly exhausted.

At the same time, Zhou Changqing's face turned ashen, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Even with the Dynastic Karmic Luck of a fourth-rank and a third-rank official, wielding the Weight of the Realm was still somewhat difficult for Zhou Changqing.

As Zhou Changqing finished casting his spell, a cauldron the size of a palm appeared above the Black-and-White Demon God at the Tomb of Prince Jing.

The body of the cauldron appears to be covered with countless patterns.

Birds, beasts, fish, insects, mountains, rivers, sun, moon, stars, and all aspects of human life.

Compared to the towering Black-and-White Demon God, this small cauldron looked pitifully small.

However, the cauldron, which is no bigger than the palm of your hand, gives people the feeling that it is extremely heavy and cannot be lifted by human power at all.
