Translator: TYZ Editor: TYZ, KLKL
Yuchi Ba looked at the distant, flourishing city with fear and bewilderment in his eyes
Up until now, the situation had been very optimistic
From now on, all of their hope and fate was placed in this newly-built city There was no other way out for them
The other Elders beside him looked absent-minded as well Their faces contained an unconcealable worry
When the news of Great Elder being seriously ill was disseile balance of power in Elders Guild would be iences between new citizens and aristocratic faer be concealed
Both parties would try to lith and authority No one would be able to stop the collapse of Elders Guild
Yuchi Ba knew that Madam Ye was shrewd and formidable, but he still did not think that she could pull Elders Guild out of this critical crisis
How could the prestige that Great Elder had built up over his lifetime be replaced by a newcomer just like this?
New citizens were filled with both fear and respect for Great Elder
Yuchi Ba had fantasized about taking over the position of Great Elder nuravely ill, his first reaction was to panic
Where would their path lie in the future? What would happen to Newlight City in the future? Where could he lead the new citizens to? Were they able to withstand Blood of God?
He did not know the answers to all of these questions
Now he truly understood that there was an uncrossable gap between him and Great Elder
Initially, everyone resented Great Elder Whenever things rong, they would direct numerous complaints at him However, now that Great Elder suddenly collapsed, they ca everyone
In the past, New Citizen Faction felt that Great Elder was their nue of collapse, instead of rejoicing, they were feeling deeply troubled
"Great Elder truly lived up to his status He was a ruthless individual," Yuchi Ba regained his composure, "Shi Beihai is in trouble"
The other Elders understood what Yuchi Ba was trying to say
The New Citizen Faction and the Aristocratic Faction were clearly at odds Both parties had relatively strong foundations Neutral Faction woulda member of Neutral Faction, Shi Beihai was neither favored by New Citizen Faction nor Aristocratic Faction
This could be seen from Great Elder’s order as well Great Elder sent the three central divisions to guard Skyheart City, but he’d sent Shi Beihai to attack Blood of God Obviously, he was trying to dith
Another Elder could not help but ask, "Can in over Shi Beihai? We used to have a rather good relationship with the Neutral Faction"
Aristocratic Faction always made up the majority of Elders Guild As such, New Citizen Faction often collaborated with the Neutral Faction to contend against Aristocratic Faction
The relationship between New Citizen Faction and Neutral Faction was rather harh of an expectation Even though Neutral Faction sympathizes with New Citizen Faction, they are mainly made up of aristocratic families as well" Yuchi Ba replied with a non-co a deep breath, Yuchi Ba continued, "From today onwards, Elders Guild ceases to exist except in name We have to depend on ourselves for our future If we are powerful, we can do anything ant If we are weak, even if the Aristocratic Faction don’t devour us, Blood of God will not let us off Everyone, please work hard"
Everyone bowed respectfully and replied, "Yes!"
Yuchi Ba’s eyes were blazing as he spoke with an aggressive tone, "Right now, since the situation hasn’t been fixed, ait for Tong Gui and Yu Lin to coht City We will have a cos to the new citizens"
He turned and said to Chouchou with a deep voice, "Prepare to execute your plan"
"Yes!" Chouchou’s chubby face was filled with excite severely ill did not only affect the higher-ups Its effects were spreading and developing gradually
Clearwater City, situated in the east of Palette Cloud Village, was not affected much by the news The locals’ lives still went on as usual
Clearwater City was a medium-scale city It was also the nearest medium-scale city to Central Pine Valley Even so, Ai Hui and his counterparts needed to go on an arduous journey of twenty-six days to reach there
In Wilderness, the distance between each city was exceptionally long Dangers lurked everywhere and they needed to be vigilant at all times for surprise attacks by dire beasts Other than the developed trade routes set up by the few large-scale cities nearby, the rest of the cities still lacked the capabilities to solve this issue
There had been situations where trading caravans were being attacked by dire beasts So and vicious dire beasts were even specialized in hunting elementalists
Those small-scale cities that lacked sufficient defensive capabilities would becoets for dire beasts Soroups to attack these small-scale cities In areas where the situation was critical, organised attacks were being launched upon some sanized attacks were able to form elemental elixirs
