Chapter 457: The King of Qin wants to snatch my woman?

"Have the people from Jiangnan arrived in Capital City yet?"

Rarely seen, the Emperor had attended the court session...

This might be the first time in half a year since he had attended court, and it was only to formally announce the construction of the Divine Temple after the incident at the Dragon Palace in Jiangnan.

Despite calling it a Divine Temple, everyone knew it was actually a Ghost Temple, and many noble families were aware of the kind of entities it enshrined. The Emperor's reason was to counter Jiangnan, but how was this any different from luring a tiger to drive away a wolf? Jiangnan at most threatened royal authority, but this Ghost Temple, once its power grew, could threaten much more than royal authority.
