The 10009th year of the Divine Prefecture Calendar was fated to be tumultuous. The Barren State appeared to not have the same end-of-year atmosphere as the previous year.
The Barren State would welcome a storm.
However, the White Cloud City Lord Office was still in a festive mood. The White Cloud City Lord was the fourth on the Barren Sky Ranking and one of the most influential figures in the entire Barren State. No matter what happened outside, the place where his clan resided could handle the situation calmly. This was the authority and status brought to them by power. The City Lord Office would not have any sense of crisis. After all, who would dare touch the White Cloud City?
