This night, for Duan Yonghui, was unbearably cold, gray, and helpless! He felt like a toy puppet, manipulated by Han Yuquan, who issued various commands based on the Pope's will, which represented supreme authority, and finally stamped them with the Jade Seal. These commands included building a blood pool and summoning prisoners.
The next day, before the highest echelons of the Holy Fire Sect, Duan Yonghui announced the establishment of the Dali Court. Positioned above all Archbishops, the court was vested with diplomatic, administrative, and military strategy powers, with Han Yuquan as its first Dean. It is no exaggeration to say that the Pope's power had completely transitioned into the hands of the Dali Court.
