A tremendous piece of news came from the land of the Divine Prefecture—Donghuang Imperial Palace and the Devil World were in the middle of a peace talk to stop the war.
For this reason, the Divine Prefecture was willing to give up the North Cliff Region and leave it to the people of the Devil World as a place of cultivation. The Divine Prefecture would forfeit it without further interference and withdraw their troops.
At the same time, the cultivators of the North Cliff Region may freely choose to move away or stay. During this process, the people from the Devil World may not do anything to the cultivators in the North Cliff Region.
Donghuang Imperial Palace had obtained the truce at the expense of ceding one of the 18 regions of the Divine Prefecture, the North Cliff Region.
This decision had caused a great uproar in the Divine Prefecture, and it was the source of much contention.
