Chapter 384 Eastern Region Six Territories_1

The cultivators markets in the Eastern Wilderness generally adopt a form of semi-autonomous governance.

Since the Divine Wood Sect was a breakaway from the Five Elements Sect, all the forces under its jurisdiction in the four countries originally belonged to the Five Elements Sect. However, in order to gain support of the local cultivation families in the four countries, the Divine Wood Sect yielded the management rights of these markets to cultivation families from the start of their separation.

Thus, in the first few decades after the separation, these cultivation families in the four countries, even those who had not contributed to the Divine Wood Sect, at least remained silent.

Those who were restless and harbored ulterior motives were either cleansed or fled.

For instance, the Silver Sky Sect, where Yu Lian used to be, is an example of the expelled ones.
