"A few days ago, violent tremors and booming noises came from Zone 1. The spies from every faction watching outside must have heard them, and word spread long ago. I'm sure you've all heard about it by now."
[Netherworld] asked, "So you've confirmed that a battle inside Zone 1 caused it?"
"Yes. We don't know why, but after Gu Weiyang entered Zone 1 with Qi Tian and Zhu Haifeng, a battle did take place inside."
The Guardians perked up at the news. "The United Government's top brass are fighting among themselves?"
"After all this waiting, the United Government's days are finally numbered!"
"Don't celebrate too soon," [Heavenly Lord] said. "After the battle, Gu Weiyang and the other two left Zone 1 and each went home. It doesn't look as though they went there to seize power. Most likely, they disagreed over something, reached an impasse, and settled it by force."
[Asura] said, "Even if the United Government is suffering from infighting, overthrowing it is still unlikely with Gu Weiyang there as its General Supervisor. But at least this proves that the United Government isn't a monolith. There are always cracks."
Everyone agreed.
[Fusheng] sighed. "What a shame. If we could kill Gu Weiyang, things would be so much simpler."
"Kill Gu Weiyang?" [Fanyang], who had remained silent all this time, spoke for the first time. "Over the years, at least eighty people, if not a hundred, have wanted him dead. Have you ever heard of him suffering even the slightest injury?"
"That's enough on that subject. Now that we've discussed Zone 5 and Zone 1, it's time to talk about our old enemy, the World-Destroying Church. Lately, the World-Destroying Church... ugh, just mentioning it gives me a headache. I'm sure you've all heard."
[Heavenly Lord] looked troubled after saying that.
