Mount Qi Wu.
Mountain God Temple.
The main hall enshrined a statue of a Taoist hermit riding a bull, surrounded by curling blue smoke and the peak of incense offerings.
This place was different from the Qingyun Mountain Temple; there were no formations or prohibitions to block access, allowing common people to enter directly to worship.
Zhou Yi had taken over the nest of the deity with a bird's head and dragon's body and changed the worship of the people under his command. The rules of offering incense and sacrifices were continued from the past; these traditions, passed down for hundreds of years, had become a cultural custom, advantageous to gaining recognition from the faithful.
On this day.
A fleeing light landed in the back courtyard, revealing its form to be Zhou Yi. He sent a message calling for the temple keeper Wu Qiong.
"In the years I have been in closed-door cultivation, has there been any important matter?"
