The Pure-Yang Sword Heir's Twenty Thousand Years of Wealth in the Blazing Sun World Cluster
The aftershocks of this battle first spread among the highest ranks of the Immortal Orders, then gradually reached their middle ranks and the entire great world.
None of the Immortal Orders had any intention of keeping the Pure-Yang Sword Heir's secret.
For a sword cultivator as furtive as he was, this was nothing less than a public execution. It brought him a great deal of trouble.
When news of the Pure-Yang Sword Heir's reappearance reached the Blazing Sun World Cluster—a territory that legally belonged to him and was under his personal rule—it immediately set off a massive political upheaval.
Many people were beside themselves with joy.
Many others fell into panic, frantically searching for a way to change allegiances.
The Solar Celestial Palace.
"Young master..."
A young woman murmured.
The young woman in a white dress stood barely five feet tall and still wore her hair in a bun. Her face was as adorable as it had been when they first met tens of thousands of years ago, without the slightest change.
From within the Solar Celestial Palace, she handled the world cluster's many affairs of state. She worked to carry the will of the Tu Shan Code throughout the cluster, to bring it under the Great Sun Sword Heir's will and shape it into what he needed, from its institutions to its culture, customs, and habits.
If the Great Sun Sword Heir wanted the world cluster to be a certain way, then that was how it should be.
Beyond the Tu Shan Code, she had built an army and an internal guard force, along with administrative, agricultural, research, and artifact-refining institutions, among others.
Most important of all, naturally, was the tax-collection institution.
The Great Sun Sword Heir needed seventy percent of the entire world cluster's tax revenue.
