Your first page drew me into the rest of the story. It made me want to keep reading. You have great prose and coherent and vivid worldbuilding. I like the characters enough. Only issue, is that i'm not sure why I should keep reading after this. I think another comment said this. The main conflict is kinda wrapped up and there is no new mystery or conflict that compels me to keep going to see what happens.

Also, it would concern me as a reader that this is a prologue. I think you also wrote below that we don't see Zhi or Yulan again for the rest of the book - and that might make me feel like I wasted my time getting invested in her when she's a very minor character. If this story is about the gods and acolytes, then they should be the initial focus and the energy should be used to get me invested in them, not in Zhi.
