“The Guardians have gradually be corrupt,” Milo Guzman exined. “Most of the people inside are from Western countries, and after receiving their benefits, they often turn a blind eye to things.”


    “I can understand that,” Billy nodded.


    Rules were made by people, and where there were people, there was greed. Greed would inevitably break rules; it was human nature.


    “Damn! A bunch of greedy scumbags!” Stout cursed again.


    “Grand Elder, what’s the situation in the Pr Domain now?” Ivy asked.


    “Several major Western countries want to im the Pr Domain as their own territory, but other countries naturally won’t stand for it,” Milo Guzman exined after taking a sip of tea.Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    “So any country with some strength has sent strong men to the Pr Domain to seize territory and resources.”


    “To some extent, the Pr Domain has be every country’s second battlefield and hope for their future.”


    “Have we sent anyone from vale?” Stout asked again.


    “While vale does not advocate for diplomacy through force, our future is tied to what happens in the Pr Domain so we cannot ignore it,” Milo Guzman nodded once more.


    “The war in the Pr Domain has been going on for decades now. As of now, nearly a quarter of all countries in the world have upied somend there.”


    “Of course, seventy or eighty percent of thatnd is upied by severalrge nations including us vale.”


    “But this kind of upation isn’t like upying one’s own territory; it’s only temporary because at any moment another country coulde along and take over.”


    Billy looked at Urban Woolery as he spoke, “Minister Woolery, you brought this up today specifically because something happened with vale in the Pr Domains?”


    As he spoke his mind drifted back to when he met that woman in ce Of Darkness who had helped him out when White Tiger and his brothers were trapped. He never knew her identity but she was clearly from the Pr Domain.


    “Yes.” Urban Woolery looked serious, “Northfortia led several major Western nations, and they have joined forces trying to exclude vale out from the Pr Domain, while dividing our territories over there.”


    “We have recently lost several of our strongest warriors stationed in the pr snow region, and the losses are severe,” said Urban Woolery.


    “It’s Northfortia again!” Ivy took a deep breath, her eyebrows furrowed.


    “Prime Minister, what can I do?” Billy continued to ask Urban Woolery.


    “Not for now!” Urban Woolery shook his head. “Guzman and Donald are negotiating with the super sects of the ancient martial arts world to send reinforcements to the Pr Domain.”


    “With their attitude, they probably won’t agree,” Stout said.


    “Although they are unhappy about it, they have no choice!” Milo Guzman responded. “This is one of the conditions that our capital has agreed upon topete for the position of inheritor of national fortune.”


    “The capital promised them to restart Dragon and Phoenix List and select an inheritor of national fortune. Regardless of winning or losing, they will send at least five Sovereign realm experts above second rank to support us in pr snow region.”


    “I see,” Stout replied vaguely.


    “Commander Gardner, I’m telling you all this today so that you can have a preliminary understanding about the Pr Domain because sooner orter you will be involved with them.” Donald added as he looked at Billy. “This is also what the old master meant. He thinks it’s time for you to know about things over there!”


    Billy nodded slightly.


    “Commander Gardner, your main task now is to wee National Fortune’s arrival! The cultivation level of most people will loosen during this time due its blessing effect on our country’s warriors.”


    “At National Fortune’s arrival moment , many people may seize this fleeting opportunity and achieve breakthroughs,” Urban Woolery exined further.


    “Minister Woolery, if we wee National Fortune in the Kun Lun Mountains, can vale Warriors martial artists from it who are far away in the Pr Domain?” Ivy asked after some thought.


    “Yes!” Urban Woolery nodded confidently. “It has nothing to do with distance but only bloodline. All vale martial artists wherever located would benefit from it.”


    “Therefore weing National Fortune’s arrival is also crucially important for the Pr Domain; if everything goes well then we could relieve much pressure there!”


    “I understand!” Billy nodded solemnly.


    “Oh, Commander Gardner, ording to the military’s intelligence, Western countries have recently dispatched hundreds of thousands of troops to the countries surrounding vale,” Milo Guzman said with a heavy tone.


    “Most likely they want to cause trouble during the Grand Summer Festival. We must be prepared. They are definitelying with a n,” he continued.


    “Don’t worry, Elder Guzman. I already have arrangements in ce!” Billy interrupted with a smile.


    “Oh?” Milo Guzman’s eyes lit up. “That’s great news!”


    After chatting for a while longer, Billy and Stout bid farewell and left.


    Time passed quickly and before they knew it, it was the day before the Grand Summer Festival. Casey and Azure Fang had gathered in the capital city along with everyone else to head towards the Kun Lun Mountains early next morning.


    To Billy’s surprise, after not seeing each other for over half a month, both Casey and Azure Dragon had made breakthroughs again. Casey had officially reached War God-Emperor perfection while Azure Dragon broke through to War God-Emperor peak!


    Of course, after his own training during this time period, Billy also made progress in his cultivation level as well. He had already sensed glimpses of reaching the Sovereign Realm but he wasn’t in any rush to break through so soon because breaking through requires favorable conditions such as timing and location which can greatly affect one’s level after breaking through into that realm.


    Just like when Billy broke through from War Emperor into War God-Emperor at his best condition – once entering Emperor realm it would be perfect.


    There were nine levels ranging from the first rank to the ninth rank within the Sovereign realm – if one broke through from the War God-Emperor into the Sovereign Realm under good conditions, there was great potential for improvement.


    One afternoon while everyone was present together, Billy briefly introduced them all about Pr Snow Domain matters. After hearing what happened, Rakshasa asked, “Boss, is our benefactor who saved us originally from Pr Snow Domain?”


    “Most likely,” Billy nodded.


    “No wonder she has such strength!” Azure Dragon eximed before continuing on. “Boss , after we finish weing our country’s fortune, let’s ask Prime Minister arrange us going there?”


    “Azure Dragon, take it easy.” Vermilion Bird chuckled lightly cautioned him.


    “Didn’t you hear what boss said? The War God-Emperor’s cultivation in theter stages is not even on par with the average level in the Pr Snow Domain. Are you trying to go there and get beaten up?”
