Li Xian nodded in acknowledgment and continued his narrative—this life, Duan Guanshi had instructed him to first achieve scholarly success and then invite her to the town.
At the time, Li Xian didn't understand why. Only now did it become clear: Duan Guanshi had long seen the unusual traits on him and had her sights set on the Five Deities venerated in the town.
