According to the barrage, the four supreme gods of Pandaria are related to their country's ancient culture, but they are different.
The ancient country in the different world where the barrage is located has four mythical beasts, namely the blue dragon in the east, the white tiger in the west, the black basalt in the north and the red bird in the south.
Corresponding to the four supreme gods of Pandaria, Azure Dragon and White Tiger are almost identical, but there are some differences in the correspondence between Xuanwu and Suzaku.
The northern mythical beast Xuanwu is a strange creature named Turtle and Snake, while Suzaku is a firebird of unknown type.
Corresponding to the four gods of Pandaria, Xuanwu was replaced by Xuanwu Niuzao, and Suzaku became Zhuhe Chiji.
According to Liu He, the leader of the Shado-Pan, the four supreme gods represent the four seasons of the year.
Among them, the green dragon Yulong represents spring, the red crane Chijing represents summer, the black ox Niuzao represents autumn, and the last white tiger Xuenu represents winter.
This is also different from the four mythical beasts known to netizens from other worlds, mainly because the seasons represented by the white tiger and Xuanwu have been swapped.
In fact, from the temple environment where the four gods sit, we can roughly infer the seasons they represent.
The Jade Forest where the Azure Dragon Temple is located is like spring all year round, the Vermilion Bird Temple is located in the hot Krasarang Jungle, the Black Bull Temple is located in the cool Mantis Plateau, and the White Tiger Temple stands in the cold Kun-Lai mountains.
The four supreme gods also have different personalities and temperaments.
According to Sarlayan's current observations, Xuen has the quickest temper, has the most aggressive behavior among the four gods, and has the strongest fighting ability.
Zhu He Chi Jing is passionate, optimistic and cheerful. He is the most eloquent among the four gods. He is mainly responsible for healing and assistance in battle.
Xuanniu Niuzao is calm and honest, and rarely expresses his opinions proactively. He is the best defensive among the four gods. During battle, he will take the initiative to rush to the front to attract firepower.
The last Qinglong Yulong is the intellectual leader among the four gods, with a gentle and watery temperament, but sometimes elusive.
Due to the severe injuries he suffered in the battle with the God of Thunder many years ago, Yulong's strength was at the bottom among the four gods.
Every once in a while, Yulong needs to change her body, making it difficult for her to exert her full combat effectiveness.
Fortunately, as the think tank among the four gods, Yulong rarely goes to the battlefield in person, and usually sits at the rear to make suggestions.
It was precisely because Thor was aware of Yu'lon's threat that he took the risk of going deep behind enemy lines to personally snipe, and was lucky enough to succeed.
Due to the fierce conflict at the beginning and the cruel and willful character of Thunder God, the four gods did not have the slightest affection for the emperor who unified the Mogu tribe.
Knowing that the God of Thunder left the house, was deprived of his guardian powers and was forcibly thrown into the Shadow Realm, the corners of Xuen's mouth couldn't help but turn up a little.
"cough!"
Yulong glanced reproachfully at Xuen, who was gloating about his misfortune, and then he regained his composure.
The Four Heavenly Gods' knowledge of Sarlayan and others comes from Xuen. At this stage, they only know that Sarlayan came to obtain Raiden's power.
But in fact, Sharlayan came to Pandaria for other reasons.
This mist-shrouded continent has been isolated from the mainstream world of Azeroth for too long, and Sharlayan wants it to return to the human world.
But this plan is not easy to implement.
As Liu He said, there are many stubborn and conservative people in Pandaria's management, who always hold an outdated thinking mode that "the laws of the ancestors are immutable."
Such a major event that changes the foreign policy of the entire race cannot be controlled by an outsider like Sarlayan. The Pandaren themselves can only make changes from the inside out.
The four supreme gods were very optimistic about the pandaren before their rise, and even fought against the rising thunder god in order to save the pandaren enslaved by the mogu.
After seizing control of Pandaria, the Pandaren have always respected the Four Gods, and will take their attitude into consideration when formulating policies. The relationship between the two parties has always been very close.
Compared with the elders of various sects who lack foresight in old age, the Four Heavenly Gods, as immortals, can view the overall situation with a more objective vision.
For ten thousand years sealed by the fog, the Pandaren no longer need to worry about threats from the outside, but their social development has stagnated due to their isolation from the outside world.
Stagnant water will only harbor dirt and evil; only living water can bring vitality.
The mantid, which has been coveting Pandaria, is still patiently accumulating strength, and the pandaren themselves know that the number of Klaxxi heroes accumulated by the mantid is increasing year after year.
The leaders of the Shado-Pan in the past have been relatively radical reformers. They hope to break the stagnant status quo of Pandaria, otherwise sooner or later they will be devoured bit by bit by the mantid's boiled frogs.
However, there cannot be only one voice within any force.
Liu He wanted to open up Pandaria, but even the Shado-Pan were dissatisfied with his radical ideas, and the Golden Lotus was also very noisy.
Considering the influence of the Supreme God's attitude on Pandaren society, Sharlayan planned to use these four wilderness demigods to change the Pandaren's conservative ideas and let them open their arms to embrace the world again.
The pandaren from the Wandering Island are also very important. They will vividly describe the colorful outside world to their compatriots in Pandaria, subtly changing the minds of the lower class people.
One side is from top to bottom, the other side is from bottom to top.
In order to ensure that Pandaria can be reopened to the outside world, Sarlayan and Danmaku finally finalized this two-pronged plan after long discussions and discussions.
Xuan Niuzao, who has a relatively straightforward temper, still has doubts about this.
"Shalayan, do we really have to reopen Pandaria? I think the pandaren are doing pretty well now."
Chi-Ji rolled his eyes at the fool angrily: "Okay? Is it okay to fight with the mantid every day?"
"If your Xuanniu Temple hadn't been on the front line of the Mantis Plateau, if it hadn't been for the buffalo and the Shado-Pan expedition team to shelter from the wind and rain, would those pandas in the Great Wall who only know how to enjoy life really live a good life?

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Yulong also agreed and said: "If you don't have long-term worries, you must have immediate worries."
"Pandaria can still maintain peace now, but the Mantid will one day break through the limits and lead their heroes to launch an unprecedented general attack."
"By then it will be too late to think of countermeasures. We must prepare for a rainy day."
Even though the pandaren now dominate Pandaria, there are also many undercurrents surging in this seemingly peaceful continent.
Not to mention the mantid, the mogu who are gradually resurrecting are also a big threat.
The lizardmen who deny their relatives are not a thing yet, but if these guys with amazing reproductive abilities are allowed to continue to grow, sooner or later they will threaten the inherent territory of the pandaren.
In addition, the conflict between Jinyu and Hozen is also a big problem.
The residual resentment of Y'Shaarj is buried underground in Pandaria. Once the two sides start a war, the Sha will take the opportunity to jump out and cause trouble. A little local conflict may be incited by the Sha into a prairie fire.
"Speaking of which..."
Sarlayan curiously asked the Four Heavenly Gods: "I heard that Shaohao, the last emperor of the pandaren, defeated the Seven Evils and sealed them underground."
"Since then, Pandaria's evil spirits have been unable to cause devastating damage. Why do you think the fight between the jinyu and the hozen could lead to a catastrophe?"
Sarlayan actually knew the answer. He deliberately asked this question to attract the attention of the Four Heavenly Gods.
Yulong shook his head with a solemn expression.
"Under the guidance of the four of us, Shaohao did defeat the six evils of doubt, confusion, anger, fear, hatred, and madness, and sealed them one by one, but..."
Xuen sighed softly: "Shaohao has never been able to defeat the last evil of pride because he could not overcome the arrogance in his heart."
Zhu He: "Shaohao believes that the pandaren are good enough, better than all the mortal races in Azeroth, and have the ability to solve the remaining problems of the Sha of Pride on their own."
Niuzao: "It is a pity that Shaohao's arrogance led to errors in his judgment."
"In the following ten thousand years, the panda people have not controlled their arrogance. Their doubts and fears have been buried deep under the earth. It only takes a fuse to ignite them."
"And the trigger is people's arrogance."
The Qinglong Temple where Yulong is located is located in the emerald forest, where there are both hozen and Jinyu settlements. She has a very clear understanding of the conflict between the two.
"The Jinyu people think that the hozen is a traitor who breaks his word, and the hozen also thinks that the Jinyu people are idiots who don't know how to adapt."
"In the final analysis, it is still the arrogance and prejudice in each other's hearts that is at work."
"For thousands of years, I have been trying to coordinate the relationship between the two, but... the persuasion of outsiders is ultimately the limit."
"Sooner or later, the day will come when these two races, Jinyu and Hozen, will have a large-scale conflict, and I'm afraid it's not far away."
