After losing to Xuanyuan in the Battle of Zhuolu, Chi You had been assigned here by Gungun to serve as the Mountain God and protect the Witch-Humans of the Southern Frontier. Since he had once been their leader as well, Chi You enjoyed immense prestige here. Every year at this time, on the anniversary of his arrival to serve as Mountain God, the Witch-Humans held a grand ceremony to express their gratitude.
