"Are you the East Lord?" Yaoji's eyes brimmed with excitement and astonishment.
"East Lord?"
The God of Spring, the Solar Deity of Chu Mythology, the East Lord?
Song Lin froze for a moment but did not reply with a yes or no. Instead, he asked back, "Why do you think I am the East Lord?"
"Pure Yang, flawless and radiant like the sun—if not the East Lord, then who?"
Yaoji said:
"Perhaps you have encountered the East Lord of the Great Destiny. Either way, you must be the East Lord—if not the reincarnation of the East Lord after their death. No wonder the creatures of Wushan are so drawn to you—what creature wouldn't adore the sun?"
"There is no second sun in the heavens. You have finally come to save the world!"
"Save the world from what?"
Song Lin was utterly baffled. Was she explaining karma to him right off the bat?
