What a dutiful grandson.

I was quite touched. “Alright then. Once this is done, can you undo your previous wish?

“That is the power of a mortal’s wish. Once it takes effect, only you can undo it.”

Xie Yu said, “Sure.”

After a brief silence, Xie Yu added, “Once this is over, I will personally fund the renovation of the River God temple.”

Damn, I was so tempted!

Xie Yu continued to entice me, “And I’ll bring people to worship and make offerings every single day.”

I immediately nodded in agreement. “Deal!”

And so, I obediently followed Xie Yu back to his home.

His family’s ancestral estate had been passed down since the Qing Dynasty. Having been renovated and reinforced, it possessed a unique, antique charm.

I had read in the newspapers that experts had once appraised the Xie family’s estate.

It was worth at least several billion yuan.

The moment we stepped inside, his family members looked at me with indescribable expressions.

Then they began whispering among themselves, though thankfully, they were exceptionally warm and welcoming.

Although the estate was massive, there were very few people around.

The Xie family had always had a sparse lineage, but fortunately, Xie Yu, their sole heir, had grown up safe and sound.

However, as soon as I entered the estate, I felt a wave of discomfort.

I could faintly sense that there was something unclean inside this house.

But I couldn’t be certain.

Once a River God goes ashore, they lose all their divine powers.

Away from my domain, I was no different from an ordinary human.

“Xie Yu, take me to see your grandfather first.”

What a filial son.

I was moved: “Alright then, after this is done, can you undo the previous wish?

“This is the power of a mortal’s wish; once it takes effect, only you can undo it.”

Xie Yu replied, “I can.”

I was silent for a moment, and then Xie Yu added, “After it’s done, I will personally fund the renovation of the River God Temple.”

Damn, I’m so tempted!

Xie Yu coaxed me further: “And I’ll bring people to worship and offer sacrifices every day.”

I nodded immediately: “Deal!”

Then, I obediently followed Xie Yu home.

His family’s old mansion had been passed down since the Qing Dynasty. After renovations and reinforcements, it possessed a unique, antique charm.

I had read in the newspaper that experts had valued the Xie family estate.

It was worth at least several billion.

As soon as I entered his home, the family members looked at me with indescribable expressions.

Then they started whispering, though they were exceptionally warm.

The mansion was large, but there were very few people.

The Xie family had never been populous, but fortunately, Xie Yu, the only seedling, had grown up safely.

However, as soon as I stepped into the mansion, I felt uncomfortable.

I could vaguely sense that there was something unclean inside the house.

But I couldn’t be sure.

When a River God steps onto land, their divine power is lost.

Away from my domain, I am no different from an ordinary person.

“Xie Yu, take me to see your grandfather first.”
