The original central governor of Lifire City vanished, as did three aristocrat clans.
Before this, Di Tian hosted a banquet and had clearly stated his intentions, saying that he wanted to investigate the past incident and settle the debts. However, no one expected Di Tian to be so tyrannical at that time. To think he was so decisive and ruthless.
In addition, from the looks of things, the Lifire Empyrean truly allowed him to do what he wanted. Despite moving against Xia Hou, the Lifire Empyrean didn't interfere at all. Xia Hou clearly wasn't Di Tian's opponent. He who had reigned supreme in the central city regions for so many years, had his position removed. His current whereabouts were also unknown.
