Sheng Lu's Beef

An Arch-Cardinal of the Holy Light Palace was standing in front of a young-looking bald man, who was sitting on a high chair—a throne to be exact. He was adorned with clothes that shone the brightest when light sprawl on it. It was a simple golden robe with symbols or characters on it that seemed incomprehensible to the eyes of an ordinary person. However, to an Arch-Cardinal, it was something very mysterious that he would not dare blaspheme even if he had nine lives.

"Your Holiness, the Holy Light Emperor," the Arch-Cardinal called as he bowed in front of this young man. "We have news about the Realm Amalgamation plan from the two Temporal Lords."

"Oh?" Sheng Lu, the new Holy Light Emperor, was intrigued. He was only able to ascend the throne with the big help of the Temporal Lords. It was a two-way street agreement with benefits from both sides.
