"Why is it Yanzhou Prefecture's City God?" Lu Zheng asked.
"Yanzhou Prefecture is the administrative seat of Lingbei Province. Yanzhou's Prefecture City God is also called the Provincial City God, overseeing the Prefecture City Gods throughout the province," Shen Ying explained.
"I see." Lu Zheng nodded, then asked, "So this City God Convention invited you because of 'Peach Blossoms,' or because your cultivation is high?"

The Great Jing Dynasty was vast, its incense offerings flourishing. Within the City God system were civil and martial officials alike, with extraordinary talents and strange figures emerging one after another.
