Chapter 1627: Chapter 969: Report
Glory Imperial City.
Although the brilliant Divine Light faintly emanating from the depths of the Endless Sea also drew some attention from the City of Glory.
For the residents of the City of Glory, the current pressing issue is still the recent Evil God incident within the city.
The Nine Heavens Divine Road has taken a foothold, Cabinet members have been completely wiped out, and now the control of the Imperial City is entirely in the hands of the Northern Legion Commander and has fully adopted military management.
The previously relaxed environment and atmosphere have completely vanished.
Many people have secretly retreated back to the Abyss.
It’s just that since the Current World is still here, returning to the Abyss is only a temporary measure.
Similar power shifts have occurred in many cities.
Once the Current World is occupied, various troubles might arise, even leading to the destruction of production resources.
But as long as the issues in the Current World are resolved, the Development Zone will sooner or later be settled.
We are now in the midst of such a transition.
The difference lies in the fact that this time, it is a force with a True God appearing with such a situation!
The upheaval in the Glory Empire is enough to trigger a full reshuffle in the nearby regions.
Meanwhile, due to the reputation of the ’Nine Heavens Divine Road’ itself, the previous actions of the ’Nine Heavens’ personally leading a team to capture the Prince, and the public announcement made through the Northern Legion Commander to other local families that after ’Nine Heavens Divine Road’ manages the Empire, more power will be decentralized to the local areas.
Everyone’s status can remain unchanged, and it might even provide a few Divine Road spots for some Saints.
Once such a message was released, it can be said it became an open plan, even those God Road local powers have to consider the consequences carefully.
If they lack the Ability to guide Saints onto the Divine Road and keep obstructing, there’s a chance their subordinates might lose loyalty and morale.
This also explains the lack of presence from the Emperor, causing instability in people’s hearts!
Now that the Prince and his party have been completely overthrown, with nine Divine Roads available to choose from.
Numerous places that were vaguely disengaged from the Empire have quickly transitioned.
While the City of Glory is still under martial law, insightful representatives have gradually begun to visit the City of Glory.
Among them were Divine Road Venerables and Saints, many of whom were the only Saints in their cities, personally coming forward.
This has brought a false prosperity to the City of Glory, originally oppressive due to the Divine War.
Flying Boats arrived one after another, adorned with various crest and grand flags, creating a continuous flow of traffic.
The Imperial Palace, a place supposed to be full of grandeur, welcomed batches of guests.
Specifically, the Imperial Garden was opened within the palace to entertain these arriving guests.
Everybody present, capable of great feats, didn’t need any special resting arrangements, and conversations in the garden seemed never-ending.
However, most of the powerful individuals exchanging greetings were discussing this power shift.
“Ah, I never expected this outcome in the end.”
“Truthfully, we’ve all been aware of the Emperor’s issues for some time. The problem lies in the Prince and his cohort’s lust for power and profit, unwilling to disclose it to the world.”
“Yes, the fault lies with the Prince and his cohorts, ’Nine Heavens Divine Road’ replacing them is following the heavens’ mandate.”
“This is the survival Law of the Abyss.”
“The ’Nine Heavens Divine Road’ has nine Divine Road systems, and now this is their only territory, they will undoubtedly manage it well.”
“Hehe, I wonder if I could secure a place on a Divine Road…”
“I don’t know what exploded deep in the Endless Sea recently either.”
“It must be a Divine War, not something we can participate in; most of the time, such results aren’t made public anyway…”
“…”
The Divine Spirits and the mortal world belong to two entirely different dimensions; the Endless Sea’s situation of contending for World Island and surfacing resources can trigger Divine Wars at any moment, but most of the time, the conclusion is either victory or defeat, and due to the special nature of Divine Spirits, they are hard to kill.
So for them, it is just idle conversation over tea.
Some people suspect it might be related to the ’Nine Heavens Divine Road’, perhaps to eliminate potential threats…
And now, for the arriving Saints, their greatest concern is naturally the Divine Road and the conditions for acquiring it.
Previously, the Emperor also led, but it always started from his progeny and concubines, followed by trusted confidants!
The spots were there, but extremely hard to obtain.
Now that the Nine Heavens Divine Road has just come into power, perhaps to win over popular support, they might expand some of the Divine Road slots.
This is absolutely an opportunity to ascend in position!
As these City Lords and Saints began to speculate, the Northern Legion Commander, along with several Divine Road Venerables, descended from the sky, also landing here.
“Greetings, Marshal.”
“Greetings, Commander.”
“…”
Greetings erupted continuously, and the usually prideful Saints now bowed their heads.
Ordinary Divine Road Venerables or even regular Demigods wouldn’t bring such humility to the Saints who struggled to attain their Saintly Positions.
But now, as the temporary authority holder, soon to be entrusted with significant duties, and holding the Imperial Palace, the Northern Legion Commander indeed merits this respect!
After the Nine Heavens Divine Road recently seized power, the first appointment announcement granted him the position of Marshal, highlighting how highly he is valued!
This is the immediate reward for choosing the right allegiance!
Even now, the ’Nine Heavens Divine Road’’s stated role is as a provisional manager!
Theoretically, authority actually lies above that of this New Marshal.
Since he is originally a Demigod, if the Emperor completely falls, he might even advance further.
