Wang Wan accepted the order, bowed deeply, and then transformed into a streak of sword light, preparing to depart.
"Wait." The mountain god's clear voice rang out again.
Wang Wan paused, then turned around respectfully: "Does Your Majesty have any further instructions?"
Yu Luo pointed to a corner of the mountain god temple with her slender hand: "Let's bring that unconscious Yan Emperor along as well."
"Now that the Yan Kingdom is in chaos, it is the time for him to go back and clean up the mess, and he can also be of some use."
Wang Wan was slightly taken aback, but then she understood what Yu Luo meant.
This Emperor Yan had secretly come to the desolate mountain and found the facilities very convenient and the things there very good. He then stayed there and refused to leave. The Mountain Goddess obviously did not intend to let him continue to enjoy his life in the desolate mountain.
“Yes, Your Majesty,” Wang Wan replied.
With a flick of her sleeve, an invisible force lifted the still unconscious Emperor Yan from the corner.
The Yan Emperor was thus attached to the flying sword like a large package.
With a flash of sword light, Wang Wan, carrying the Yan Emperor, vanished into the horizon in an instant.
…
At this moment, the capital of Yan was shrouded in gloom and the people were filled with anxiety.
The Grand Preceptor of Yan was originally a demon with great supernatural powers, but when a flash flood came a few days ago, he ignored a group of people. Later, for some unknown reason, he went into seclusion and could no longer protect Yan.
Without the Grand Preceptor's suppression, various demons and evil spirits took the opportunity to cause chaos. In addition, with the arrival of the wolf demons recently, all kinds of demons and evil spirits roamed freely throughout the Yan Kingdom, causing great suffering to the people.
Inside the palace.
A pot-bellied prime minister was kneeling and praying, tears streaming down his face.
"Mountain Goddess! Please show your power! Save the people of Yan Kingdom from their suffering!"
The pregnant prime minister cried so hard that his forehead was bruised from kowtowing.
Suddenly, there was a muffled thud.
An unidentified object fell from the sky and crashed heavily onto the open ground in front of the Prime Minister, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"Ouch!" The prime minister was startled and sat down on the ground with a thud.
He looked closely and almost lost his mind.
Lying on the ground, isn't that their long-lost Emperor Yan?
His Majesty's eyes were closed, he was unconscious, and he looked disheveled, as if he had been beaten up.
"Your Majesty?" The Prime Minister's voice trembled, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
He rubbed his eyes, thinking he was hallucinating from excessive worry.
Am I dreaming?
"Wait a minute, I prayed to the Mountain Goddess for a miracle, how come an Emperor fell from the sky?"
The prime minister's mind was buzzing, and he was momentarily unable to react.
He looked left and right, then suddenly looked up and saw a figure in pure white in mid-air, with flowing robes, like an immortal descending to earth, aloof and ethereal.
"Fairy Maiden!" The Prime Minister, as if grasping at a straw, scrambled to his knees in Wang Wan's direction and kowtowed repeatedly.
"May I ask, fairy maiden, were you sent by the Mountain Goddess to save my Yan Kingdom?"
Wang Wan's cold voice came from the air, carrying a hint of indifference: "I am Wang Wan, a believer under the Mountain God of the Desolate Mountain. I am here on the orders of the Mountain Goddess to send Emperor Yan back."
Upon hearing this, the prime minister was first stunned, then burst into tears.
"My messenger! You've finally arrived!"
"We beg the Mountain Goddess to have mercy and save the people of Yan! Wolf demons are rampant in Yan, and the people are suffering terribly! They burn, kill, and plunder, committing all sorts of evil deeds. We are truly helpless!"
He tearfully recounted the wolf demon's heinous crimes, a tale so moving that it brought tears to the eyes of all who heard it.
Wang Wanqing's cold eyes swept over him, her voice devoid of any emotion: "The Mountain Goddess is compassionate, but her divine grace is boundless, and she only protects devout believers who follow the Mountain God."
"If the people of Yan sincerely worship the Mountain Goddess and regard her as the only deity, the Mountain Goddess will make arrangements accordingly."
Upon hearing this, the Prime Minister was immediately speechless.
Does this mean the entire Yan state should convert to the mountain god?
Just then, the Yan Emperor, who had been unconscious on the ground, slowly woke up and happened to hear Wang Wan's words.
He opened his bewildered eyes and first saw his own prime minister crying his eyes out, then he saw the ethereal woman in mid-air. His mind was still a little dazed.
But the words "Mountain Goddess" and "Wolf Demon Rampage" instantly brought back fragments of what he had heard before he lost consciousness, as well as the current predicament of the Yan Kingdom.
He jolted awake, disregarding the dignity of being an emperor and the pain in his body, and leaped up from the ground, kneeling heavily with a "thud," even more devout than the prime minister.
"Your Excellency, the messenger is wise!" Emperor Yan's voice was choked with sobs, completely devoid of imperial majesty.
"If the Mountain Goddess is willing to lend a helping hand and save the people of my Yan Kingdom from this calamity, I, I am willing to lead the entire Yan Kingdom to worship the Mountain Goddess! Incense will burn day and night without ceasing! I will personally build a temple for the Mountain Goddess!"
Emperor Yan was clearly shocked by what he had experienced during this period, and after witnessing Wang Wan's divine entrance, he no longer hesitated or maintained his imperial airs.
As long as it can save the country and save lives, I'll do anything, let alone believe in the mountain god!
Wang Wan nodded lightly: "Okay."
"The Mountain Goddess is aware of your predicament and will make arrangements later."
Before she finished speaking, she flashed and transformed into a streak of light, speeding towards Yunzhou, leaving behind only the words: "Take care of yourself."
The Prime Minister and the Emperor of Yan stared blankly in the direction where Wang Wan had disappeared, exchanging bewildered glances.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this..." The Prime Minister was somewhat at a loss.
Emperor Yan wiped the dust from his face and gritted his teeth, saying, "What are you all standing there for! Immediately issue my decree to proclaim to the world that from this day forward, the Yan Kingdom will worship the Mountain God of the Wilderness as the only true god! Temples dedicated to the Mountain God will be built throughout the country immediately! Prime Minister, you will personally oversee this matter!"
