Chapter 281: Willpower

Although Lin Shiqi arrived at the last minute, he had no obligation to save her immediately! Therefore, she died in the chaos of the army, and she could only blame her bad luck.

This is not correct. This result proves that she was not a saint, so her death can only be said to be a worthy one.

So, who exactly is the Saint? No one in the court mentioned it this time. Isn’t it very obvious?

After dealing with the urgent matters, Xiao Ya Niang issued an order to widely distribute the news of the great victory to let the people know.

The people of the capital were the first to learn the news, and the whole city was in an uproar!

Everyone rushed to tell each other, and the streets and alleys were filled with people shouting victory. Many people spontaneously organized themselves to beat drums and gongs to celebrate the great victory of the Dayu Kingdom.

Lin Shiqi and Zhou Lang's names became known to everyone overnight.

When Mrs. Zhou and Old Man Zhou were walking in the imperial city, all the officials would come forward to greet them when they saw them.

Zhou Laowu's shop has become a special place for high-ranking officials and wealthy families to place orders. He makes a fortune every day and is busy all day long.

Even one of Prince He's concubines was inexplicably given a real position and became a sixth-rank official. Prince He and his son were nervous and analyzed for a long time, but finally decided to keep it to themselves at home and not let Zhou Lang and his wife know. This was probably because some powerful person wanted to flatter Zhou Lang and his wife, so he gave them an idle son, and everyone knew about it and kept it a secret.

More than a month passed before Lin Shiqi and Zhou Lang returned to the capital.

Because they were worried that the Giant Elephant Kingdom might go back on its word, they stayed there for a while to keep the peace.

Fortunately, the Giant Elephant Kingdom did not do anything stupid.

The little mute girl led all the civil and military officials, with colorful flags flying and gongs and drums beating, and went thirty miles out of the city to give a grand welcome to the two men returning triumphantly.

After meeting, there was naturally another round of lively greetings and a toast to celebrate, but I won’t mention it.

Xiao Ya Niang also gave them a mansion specifically for them, named Zhaode Mansion. This was the only large mansion in the imperial city that was not named after a person's identity.

Lin Shiqi asked Zhou Po and the others to move in.

Next, Zhou Lang was responsible for teaching Xiao Ya Niang how to govern the country and how to judge people.

Lin Shiqi, the Grand Tutor, only has the title but does no work. He mainly focuses on DY and interacting with his family members.

She has a lot of material now, and she can post a segment on any plot.

So gradually, many fans began to wonder if she was not on the Blue Planet?

Otherwise, it would be impossible to have so much ancient material, and many of the scenes are from the first-person perspective, and they have not found even one scene in reality so far.

Although this is a bit unbelievable, in modern society, all kinds of things are possible. Following the routine and being honest is stupid. What is needed is to dare to think!

Lin Shiqi ignored it for the time being. She was thinking about another more important issue.

Since the Imperial Master can send Bai Tangxin to Blue Star, can he send her and Zhou Lang back?

She found the Imperial Master again and said directly:

"Master, you probably have guessed it. Zhou Lang and I are not from Dayu. We are time travelers, just like Bai Tangxin. It's just that she traveled to the past, and we traveled here, but the principle is the same, right?"

The Imperial Master was wearing a veil, so her expression couldn't be seen, but what was clear was that she was certainly not shocked.

She nodded slightly.

"The reason is indeed the same. The purpose of your coming here is to ask if I can send you back?"

Lin Shiqi smiled and said that it was easier to talk to smart people.

"Can the Imperial Master do this?"

Under her hopeful gaze, the Imperial Master slowly shook his head.

“The cost is huge and it’s impossible to do it now.”

Lin Shiqi was stunned.

"Why is it impossible to do so?"

"Look here." The Imperial Master pointed to the altar that occupied the entire hall and said:

"This is the secret technique of my witch sect, designed to save Dayu from a century of crisis. With it, I can protect my soul and go to the place where the witch god guides me. In order to activate it, in addition to consuming my essence and blood, I also need a more important power, that is, willpower!"

Lin Shiqi was surprised:

"Willpower?"

The Imperial Master nodded:

"Yes, it's the power of will. The people of Dayu have experienced hundreds of years of oppression, and almost every generation has suffered huge casualties. This bloody history has made the people of the country hope to defeat the Giant Elephant Kingdom and completely change this reincarnation-like misfortune. This desire of unity and solidarity is an invisible and huge force. With the guidance of such a powerful force, I can make it possible for people to travel through time."

After she said that, Lin Shiqi understood instantly. People who often hang out on the Internet have a strong ability to understand.

"Isn't this the same as the incense used by monks, except you don't use incense."

National Master:

"Incense is just a form of representation. The power of a wish is invisible, so why does it need to be carried by mortal objects? Our Wu Sect is not bound by form and has no such requirements. As long as there is a wish in her heart, no matter where she is, whether there is a representative object or not, she will provide a wish. Having said that, you should understand that now that the crisis of Dayu Kingdom has been resolved for a hundred years, it is impossible for Dayu people to have such a united wish, so even if I want to help you, I can't do it."

Lin Shiqi was speechless.

It was she herself who caused this result. Did she shoot herself in the foot?

The Imperial Master was right. It is impossible to reproduce the united will of everyone.

Even though she saved the country of Dayu from a century of crisis, she couldn't make all the people of Dayu have one idea: they hope she returns to her original world.

On the contrary, I am afraid there will be many people who hope that she will stay and protect Dayu.

"I'm a little curious, how do you use the power of willpower? Can you tell me?" Lin Shiqi asked.

The national teacher smiled.

"This is the secret of my witch sect, but you are a great contributor to Dayu, and you helped me fulfill my wish, so it's okay to tell you. Although the power of wish is invisible and spreads in all directions, the witch god of our sect can naturally sense it and make good use of it."

Lin Shiqi was a little confused. There was a witch god on your left and a witch god on your right. Could it be that such a thing really existed?

"National Master, can you communicate with the witch god?"

The Imperial Master shook his head.

"How can I have such ability! I am just performing some secret techniques according to the inheritance of my sect. These secret techniques are said to be passed down by the witch god. If I can see the witch god, then I am afraid that I will not be far from becoming a god."

Lin Shiqi saw the longing in her eyes.

She felt that the existence of the witch god was a big question mark, at least she had never seen such signs appear. Well, maybe she grew up in a different environment and had preconceived ideas.

But no matter what, since it is a god that cannot be seen, she has no interest in it.

It seems that my thoughts are just wishful thinking after all.
