The news of forming a militia and opening the Celestial Realms Spirit Bank was officially published in the Nine Heavens Daily after dawn.
It also bore the Emperor's edict and seal, leaving no doubt.
The Nine Heavens Daily suddenly became a best-seller, causing a sensation not only in Tianguan City but also in the various towns and cities behind it, stirring up a commotion.
These two orders were practically digging into their bowls to grab a meal.
The militia divided their military power, and the Celestial Realms Spirit Bank divided their financial power, which was a deadly matter.
The clan elders of the Nine Great Families got the news and gathered overnight for a council meeting. Even the Empress Dowager in the palace was aware of it, declaring that there were treacherous officials in the Heaven-Piercing Palace causing chaos in the world.
The Emperor was in seclusion and delegated everything to Prime Minister Yao Chong to handle.
