Return of the Victors

According to what Fang Yuan knew about the general trend, the Shang Dynasty had exhausted all of its brilliance and luck to secure in this battle what would be the regime's final victory.

When the Western Zhou state begins its assault on the Shang Dynasty, the fall of the Shang would become irreversible.

Fang Yuan and the War God Chi has planned to weaken the strength of the other party while it was not yet clear who the heavenly mandate was with. They had wanted to trick Nüwa into altering the course of nature personally, which would have resulted in divine retribution for Nüwa and increased their chances of victory in the future.

However, Nüwa had only made a small move to test the firmness of heavenly will and did not act at all after that. Fang Yuan and the War God Chi felt like their efforts had all been for nothing.

At the same time, they felt the chills.
