The meeting of the Heavenly Guardians and King Xingyun continues.
The king of the Xing Kingdom and his prime minister were present in the room, as were the six Heavenly Guardians (the final Guardian interacting with the others via a communication crystal). The way the two factions took their seats at the round table was indicative of their division.
The Heavenly Guardians of Gu and Yi sit on one side of the monarch, while the Heavenly Guardians of Mu Zang, Lu Wangle, Mo Xinyue, and Xian Wu, along with Doctor Sen, sit on the other. The prime minister is seated on the side opposite the king.
As King Xingyun watches this scene, the more he regrets what he did in the past. Whereas these old men used to be sworn brothers who would always support him, he now only has the Prime Minister on his side—the other two being Heavenly Guardians Gu and Yi, whom he appointed as Guardians from the noble factions.
