"More Large Gods have appeared?!"
Everyone looked shocked at the news.
"Yes!"
Olof said, "Switch to the frontline feed!"
"Yes!"
Moments later, several views of River Ridge's outskirts appeared on the conference room's large screen.
The feeds showed signs of Large Gods moving in every direction outside the Eighth Domain.
Gu Weirong's eyes widened. "Has someone else broken through to Sequence Level Ten One?!"
"Probably not..." Fan Baoluo said, studying the feeds. "These Large Gods don't seem to intend to enter the Eighth Domain. They're just wandering nearby. But what's going on?"
Qin Siyang's gaze darkened. "I'm afraid these Large Gods are all backing the First Domain from behind the scenes, just like the Patterned Fox."
"What do you mean, Minister Qin?"
"It seems news of the Patterned Fox's death has spread far faster than we expected. These Large Gods probably all know by now."
Qin Siyang stared at the feeds, his expression grave. "The Large Gods on-screen aren't trying to invade the Eighth Domain. They're standing guard outside it, monitoring our movements so our people can't leave freely to explore, and stopping us from clearing out the First Domain's hidden sentries nearby."
"They'd actually do that?" Huan Qi asked. "With so many Large Gods supporting the First Domain, what are we supposed to do?"
Hu Chan said, "Don't worry, Huan Family Head. The First Domain has the support of Large Gods, but so does our Eighth Domain. The Large Gods within our domain are actually all friendly toward us."
"Really?"
"Of course. Otherwise, why would those Large Gods let people from our Eighth Domain pass their trials one after another and hand out rewards for nothing?"
"I see... So we don't need to be afraid?"
Qin Siyang shook his head. "There are restrictions on when Large Gods can act.
