After the incident, the many minor gods living on Shrimp Street became much more familiar with Ma Lin and Xiao Feng, and their interactions increased.
Online discussions about the Pancake Festival incident on Shrimp Street in Pancake City arose, with some netizens claiming it was a conspiracy by the rulers against the adventuring cult.
This sparked public outrage, and when the street closure ended, more followers of the adventuring deities came to Shrimp Street to visit Ma Lin and Xiao Feng, and they would also buy some things on the street.
The numerous minor gods on Shrimp Street were mostly solitary, without even an assistant. They were not like Ma Lin who had nearly forty powerful assistants.
Initially, the minor gods were surprised as to why a weak deity like Ma Lin would have such strong assistants.
But after witnessing how popular the adventuring deities were, they became envious.
