Divine Country Territory, the High Priest holds a supreme position. According to Leng Qingyue, people worship the High Priest and offer statues in tribute. If they appear anywhere and are discovered by human cultivators, they may report it.
Beneath the High Priest are the Seven Countries.
Sun-suspending City, the capital of Sunlight Country, is one of the Nine Cities within the Divine Country Territory.
In the Imperial Palace Hall, Emperor Zhao Wuji is meeting with his ministers.
"In one battle, a sword cultivator killed Great Cultivators of the Seven Countries, including Cangwu and Zang Kunlun. It is said that this sword cultivator only has Middle Realm cultivation in the Seven Realms. Although there have been outsiders in the Divine Country Territory before, such incidents have never occurred. Now, both the Left and Right Ministers have been killed by him. What do you all think?" Zhao Wuji asked everyone, but there's a sense of concern hidden deep within his eyes.
