Li Yao sat with her eyes closed deep in meditation.
Xiang Yu and the Empress sat around her, careful not to disturb her. After some time, Li Yao slowly opened her eyes.
"How did it go?" they asked at the same time, looking at her with expectant faces.
"In a month, the protection will fall," she said.
The two had serious expressions, each doing calculations internally. They then began to speak among themselves.
"A month? What do you think?" the Empress asked Xiang Yu.
"There's only one way," Xiang Yu said.
"I think so too," she said.
The two then turned to look at Li Yao. "If we go all out, we can definitely make a god in a month," they said in unison, then began giggling to themselves.
"What's wrong with you guys?" Li Yao asked, but they just continued.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" she asked in concern, but they then turned to each other again.
"What's your plan?" Xiang Yu asked.
