A gentle yet authoritative will enveloped everyone present.

Everyone felt as if they were bathed in a spring breeze, and their fatigue and pain were swept away.

"A miracle! It's a miracle!"

The people at the foot of the mountain could no longer contain themselves and knelt down excitedly, kowtowing frantically.

"The Mountain Goddess has appeared!"

"Praise be to the guardian deity! Protect my Great Yu!"

A roar like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down instantly resounded through the sky.

…

Meanwhile, in various parts of Dayu.

In an ordinary teahouse, the storyteller slammed his gavel down.

"To find out how the Empress changed the world, stay tuned for the next episode!"

Before he finished speaking, the teahouse erupted in chaos.

An old scholar in a long gown was so angry that his beard trembled.

"Absurd! Utterly absurd! Since ancient times, what reason has there ever been for an emperor to change the name of his country for a deity! The surname of a country is passed down from our ancestors; how can it be changed so easily!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a burly man at the next table slammed his teacup down heavily.

"Old man, you don't know anything!"

"If it weren't for the Mountain Goddess, my whole family would have starved to death on the road of fleeing famine! Don't even mention changing the country's name, I'd be happy to change my surname too!"

“Exactly!” a woman chimed in. “Those emperors of the past only ever collected taxes, did they ever care about our lives? Now the Mountain Goddess is sending people to open factories and distribute grain, she’s the real god for us common people!”

"Yes, but the ancestral laws..."

"Can the laws of our ancestors feed you?"

A young man chuckled and pointed outside.

"Look at the world now! It's either floods or the sea god causing trouble. If it weren't for the mountain goddess sending people to save us, we would have been fish and turtles' bellies long ago!"

"Let me tell you, my cousin works in a factory in Yuzhou. He says the good life there is something we can't even imagine!"

The old scholar was rendered speechless by the rebuttal, and his old face turned a deep purplish-red.

The atmosphere in the teahouse gradually shifted from initial shock and confusion to fervent longing.

More and more people's eyes began to sparkle.

A voice quietly rang out from the crowd.

"When do you think we can go to Tianyu Divine Mountain for a pilgrimage?"

In an instant, the entire teahouse fell silent.

Everyone wore the same expression.

yes.

Such a sacred mountain, such a deity.

Who wouldn't want to see it for themselves?
