Jizhou city, underground Temple of Heaven in the dark night.

The man's tone was tense, as if he was enduring some unspeakable tension, "Master, when will the goddess be able to come back?"

Two months ago, the goddess died, leaving behind only a set of soiled clothes. The King of Yan was furious and was determined to kill Lu Huan and flatten the Nanchang Kingdom. He also summoned a strange master to summon the goddess.

Machi and Gebulu have followed Yan Xuanye for more than ten years and are loyal to him. Although they also believe that the goddess can bless Fengyuan Kingdom, the goddess has passed away after all. How can they still summon her?

The goddess did not blame Fengyuan Kingdom. They were lucky enough to be punished. How dare they disturb the goddess' rest again?

Machi and Gebulu privately advised Yan Xuanye, but Yan Xuanye was like a madman and was determined to find the goddess, and they were at a loss as to how to do it.

Dozens of masters have said that there is no way, not even the corpse, and they cannot summon the goddess.

Look, another wizard has been summoned.

This is already the thirty-seventh person with special abilities. In order to resurrect the goddess, even the attack on Zhiyi City was temporarily put on hold, only because Yan Xuanye heard that there were many talented people in Jizhou City.

The wizard was activating some secret technique while he was muttering something and drawing spells with his fingers.

Machi and Gebulu were terrified. The people of Fengyuan had always believed in ghosts and gods, but if they went against the will of heaven and resurrected the goddess, they were afraid of angering God and bringing punishment upon the people of Fengyuan.

Suddenly, a huge noise resounded throughout the Temple of Heaven, and even the Master Mage was shaken and thrown into disarray. Yan Xuanye hurried forward to support him.

"Master, what happened?"

There was urgency in his voice: "When will the goddess be resurrected?"

The mage calmed down and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I have already figured out that the goddess has been resurrected."

Yan Xuanye grabbed his arm excitedly: "Really? Where is the goddess?"

"It's true. The goddess was resurrected half a month ago in Yaoshan Town near Jiangning City, and is now in Zhiyi City."

"Zhiyi City? Why would the goddess go to Zhiyi City?"

The wizard stroked his beard and said, "I don't know. What I can be sure of is that the goddess has been resurrected, and she is in Zhiyi City."

Yan Xuanye seemed to be thinking: "Zhiyi City is where Lu Huan is now. Could it be that the goddess wants revenge and wants to kill Lu Huan?"

As if he suddenly thought of something, he immediately made up his mind: "No, Zhiyi City is too dangerous, I can't let the goddess be in danger again."

"March!"

Ma Qi: "My subordinate is here."

"Go and gather 100,000 soldiers and horses. From now on, go with me to Zhiyi City to rescue the goddess!"

Machi said weakly: "Your Highness."

Yan Xuanye: "What's the matter?"

"The spy from Zhiyi City is back and has something important to report."

Yan Xuanye regained some of his sanity: "Let's go to the main hall first."

-

At the same time, in Zhiyi City.

The secret guard was reporting to Lu Huan, "General, the news has already reached Jizhou."

"Well done, go on down."

"Subordinates retire."

Lu Huan walked to the desk, spread out a piece of paper, picked up a purple brush, dipped it in ink and started writing...

After writing for a short while, he put down his pen with satisfaction, "I wrote very well today."

"You said so, goddess." His eyes were crazy and a low, terrifying laugh escaped from his throat.

……

It has been half a month since Su Qian came to Zhiyi City, and he still keeps Cuiwei company every day as he did in the past few days.

That day, Su Qian was bored and taught Cuiwei how to play Go: "Cuiwei, what do you think is the situation now?"

Cuiwei looked at the chess pieces on the chessboard, thinking about how to intercept Su Qian's moves. "I don't know either. Maybe they are preparing for battle."

Su Qian sighed: "It's been more than ten days. I wonder if the news has reached Jizhou."

"Don't worry, my dear. It is a blessing for us to have some free time during our busy schedule."

"When Yan Xuanye leads his troops to attack us, nothing good will happen to us. The common people will suffer the most."

"What you said makes sense, so let's continue playing chess."

"Yes."

It was not until lunch time that Su Qian heard someone occasionally talking about preparing for war. It happened to be lunch time, so Su Qian went to find Lieutenant General Wu.

Deputy General Wu is a man who can eat and sleep well. As long as there is no real war, he will definitely eat and drink well. Su Qian can easily find him when he goes there.

Deputy General Wu was chewing a chicken leg. Su Qian patted his shoulder, scaring him so much that the chicken leg fell into the bowl. "Damn, it turned out to be you, Su Zhao. I thought the general found out that I was eating the chicken leg."

Su Qian didn't want to listen to him talk about other things, so she asked him directly: "Deputy General Wu, is the war about to start?"

Deputy General Wu took another bite of meat and said vaguely: "Yes, can't you see that I am replenishing my energy?"

Su Qian: "How's the situation in Jizhou?"

"The news has been spread, and Jizhou has believed it. According to the news sent back by our people, Yan Xuanye is ready to attack Zhiyi City."

Su Qian felt a little conflicted. She wanted Yan Xuanye to come, but she also didn't want him to come.

If he didn't come, she would have to stay here bored every day and couldn't go home; if he came, and a war really broke out, there would be displaced people and both sides would suffer losses, and the victims would always be the civilians and soldiers.

Neither of these two situations is what she wants to see, but if she has to choose, she can only be selfish and choose what she wants most.

Deputy General Wu looked at her and said, "Why do you look unhappy? It was you who came up with the idea. When we win the battle, it will be your contribution and the general will ask for a reward for you."

Su Qian sighed: "I'm just worried about the people."

Although Deputy General Wu looked careless, he was a different person when he was serious: "You don't have to worry. If we don't resist, we will be irresponsible to the people. The people of Fengyuan should be ashamed. If they hadn't started the war, we wouldn't have ended up like this."

"What Lieutenant General Wu said makes sense." After hearing what he said, Su Qian finally felt a little better.

I hope that this time, I can help Lu Huan and the people of Nanchang.

The city of Zhiyi had issued a notice saying that a war was about to break out, and that all the people outside the city were to evacuate into the city. Soldiers were searching the city gates one by one.

Su Qian also went to see, and saw people in panic everywhere.

……

At midnight, Su Qian was sleeping soundly when she suddenly heard shouting, the sound of swords clashing, and the neighing of hooves. She sat up and saw Cuiwei knocking on the door and entering the room.

"My dear, please get up quickly. The soldiers of Fengyuan have begun to attack the city. The general ordered me to take you to the secret room to hide."

Although the door was closed, she could vaguely see the red light outside the window. Su Qian quickly put on her clothes and asked, "What about the others?"

"The civil officials, their wives, and their children have all gone into hiding, while the military officers have all gone to meet the enemy."

Su Qian was so flustered that she even put on her clothes wrongly. Cuiwei quickly unbuttoned them for her and then put them back on.

Su Qian was not familiar with the terrain of the prefecture, and followed Cuiwei all the way. When they passed a narrow path, from this angle, he could see from the city gate that tens of thousands of arrows drew arcs in the air, and then fell into Zhiyi City, igniting sparks that quickly spread.

With the deafening roar of the catapult, large stones hit the city walls and gates. The sound seemed to hit her heart, one after another, leaving behind holes.

Su Qian suddenly stopped: "Cuiwei, did you hear that?"

Cuiwei looked nervous and a little confused: "What did you hear?"

"What are they shouting? It seems like they are saying to return the goddess to them." Su Qian calmed down and listened again, "Didn't you hear it?"
