"It's hard to say."
Westheid didn't think Mephit, even under a Celestial Blessing, could take down Eilvette. Not even as a Yonglan Knight.
Because there were different tiers of Celestial Blessings.
The blessing left by the Yonglan Riding God was merely his Divine Blood, a temporary enhancement. The Thousand Laws Ceremony, however, was the very artifact Emperor Qianlu had used to achieve his Ascension!
Without a special ability to counter Harmonic Resonance, fighting the Grand Law Officer on the Royal Court's home turf was an extremely foolish act. Even Westheid had never considered it for a moment.
"Clashing with the Grand Law Officer the moment you meet? That can't be a good sign."
Beside him, Luyetan covered her mouth, stifling a giggle as she said:
"You can see it too, can't you? Who calls the shots in the Thousand Laws Royal Court now."
"When the old order collapses, the strong define the new rules. It's only natural."
