Chapter 1561: 12 Scrolls & 33,000 Pillars

"I remembered Qin had an Empress, right?" Wang Wei asked. frёeweɓηovel_coɱ

"Yes, but she has no power and is just a figurehead," Wu Hong explained. "In fact, the current Empress is like the 30th one."

"I’m guessing her cultivation is not too high?"

"It was 94% before the Ultimate Taboo, and she didn’t even participate."

"So, she died during the Moon’s Cleanup? But she must have been revived by now."

"Maybe, or since Ying Zheng has been preparing this plan for so long, he never allowed her to revive," Wu Hong said.

"I’ll have someone check," Wang Wei said as he sent an order to Red Mask. "It seems that I may have to rely on Ying Yongrui if I want a chance at getting to the Butterfly Princess." He calmly watched a group of Qin Soldiers in golden armor — which symbolized they were part of the Imperial Legion, who only responded to Ying Zheng — show up to lead the Butterfly Princess to the royal palace.

The event ended after the princess’s departure. Many people left, feeling like something was stuck in their throats. With one move, the Qin Court’s luck, destiny, and prestige drastically increased. The worst part is that for the next few days before the assembly, they have blatantly visited the weakest Overlords like the Divine Faith Heaven, the Limitless Exchange Hall, or the Skill Path Association.

No one knew what was discussed, but everyone sensed that something devious was going on at work. All the participants thought nothing unexpected would occur, but something did, and it happened the day before the assembly.

Wang Wei was not with Wu Hong, but having dinner with Mongke and Dulgun. Besides the Barbarian Clan, three other factions had one Primal, and they could also participate in the assembly. However, while they could propose resolutions, they could not vote on them, which was highly unfair given how these four were extremely powerful if combined.

Sadly, the hidden rules of the Overlord are to suppress these four factions and do whatever is necessary to prevent them from allying with each other. The Limit Exchange Hall takes this rule extremely seriously and always keeps an eye on these four.

While the three of them were having a good time, they suddenly sensed something and looked at the sky. Twelve golden scrolls suddenly materialized between Heaven and Earth, alarming the world. The scrolls shone brightly for a few seconds before rushing into the hands of each of the Overlords.

Then, 33,000 enormous silver pillars condensed in the sky before rushing and scattering in different places around the Eternal Ascension World.

"Are those?" Mongke asked.

"Exchange Lists," Wang Wei nodded.

"One of the pillars landing in our domain," Dulgun commented.

"Their landing places were chosen carefully," Wang Wei said. "All Primal and top Paragon Lineages received one, and the rest fell in small areas occupied by powerful loose cultivators."

"Even with a disaster looming over us, Heavenly Dao is showing favoritism," Mongke sighed. The Overlords received exchange lists, while everyone had to use these pillars. Additionally, the exchange list probably has its advantages given its gold, while the pillars are silver.

A look of determination flashed in Mongke’s eyes. He knew that Heavenly Dao did it on purpose; its exact target is Primal Lineages, like the Barbarian Race, with the potential to cultivate a second Primal and compete for an Overlord spot. Heavenly Dao wants them to compete and destroy each other to reshuffle the board.

But knowing the enemy’s scheme does not mean he can do something. If there is one thing that Mongke learned from his time with Wang Wei, it was that he had to play the game before he reached the level to overthrow it.

"I must leave," Wang Wei said.
