The murmured words betrayed worry.
Indeed, there was worry!
The North and South were pacified, the Nine States unified, and it has already been several years.
In these years, that Bright Spirit King has remained silent and still, seemingly unaware of the actions of the Northern Noble Families, the Three Sects' Lineage, and various forces, allowing them to fall into place, depend on the True Dragon, and make strategic moves.
This isn't normal!
The chaos caused by the True Dragon is an open strategy, plainly visible whether friend or foe.
Logically, both sides should be making moves on this chessboard, doing all sorts of maneuvering.
But that Bright Spirit King has not.
He remains unmoving, letting everything run its course, allowing the Northern Noble Families and the Three Sects' Lineage to easily change sides, join the Great Zhou, rely on the True Dragon, gradually forming a great power and controlling the Court's authority.
