Chapter 442 : When Pillars Crumble, Shadows Scatter
After the destruction of the Five Great Demonic Sects in the Southern Region, the Fang family and the Great Qian Empire immediately sprang into action.
Officials and powerful cultivators from the Great Qian Empire were dispatched one after another to take control and administrate the twenty kingdoms of the Southern Region.
At first glance, twenty kingdoms sounded like a formidable force. But in reality, they weren't worth much.
These twenty kingdoms combined had about the same land area as the former Great Qi Kingdom, but only one-fifth its population. Cultivators above the Core Condensation Realm were extremely rare.
Even back in the day, a single influential clan in the capital of the Martial Kingdom could have easily wiped out these twenty kingdoms.
Their weakness stemmed from thousands of years of exploitation and suppression under the Five Demonic Sects.
