Chapter Sixty Three: Strength in Flame and Trade
In a massive city like Lingyue, which had existed for over ten thousand years, its profits and power had long since been carved up by entrenched factions. Outsiders weren't exactly welcome to share the pie.
Over the years, many clans and forces had moved to Lingyue City in hopes of growth.
