The Mountain Has a Spirit

The mountain god of Phoenix Ridge has been absent for a long time, and the beasts on the ridge are restless, vowing to find a successor and restore their god to the mountain. They set their sights on Cheng Mingyu, who passes through while fleeing famine. After two days as the mountain's overlord, Cheng Mingyu finds the whole thing immensely entertaining. But without any trusted allies, Mountain God Cheng can't put her ambitions and skills to use. She sets her sights on Yang Yanchi, the commander-in-chief of the bandit suppression forces stationed at the foot of the mountain. -- 1.
