The king was still processing everything that had happened and was shocked by it, but he had no choice but to do what the advisors told him to even if he had a different opinion on the matter, so decided not to think too much about it.
Instead, it was a good opportunity for him to break away from the advisors and increase the influence and power of the Gobe Country, through forming an alliance with Elizabeth or the Graham Family.
If that was to happen, he would be able to dominate the advisors and they would be the one's submitting to him, and he would finally be able to surpass the Mortal Cultivation Level. It would also make the position of the king that he was in much more valuable and was the best outcome for him.
The king didn't see the advisors as family, despite the distant blood relation, and just like in most other large families, most were only out for their own gain and would be able to tell between friend and foe within their own family.
