The vast expanse of Heaven and Earth stretched out as the black clouds gradually receded.
Qi Yun stood with his hands behind his back, his deep blue Daoist robe perfectly still.
His vast, cyan gold eyes watched the myriad expressions flitting across the faces of the Great Masters as they received the True Monarchs' will, and the resigned smile on his lips deepened.

"Quite decisive..."
He muttered to himself, his voice low but tinged with a complex, amused tone.
Was he frustrated?
He was. Very.
But he couldn't defy them.
The True Monarchs' decision was a balance struck after much maneuvering among the various powers in All Marvelous Heaven.

Their Fruit Positions were newly proven, their foundations not yet stable.
