Chapter 110: Destructive Identity

"How did you know that the Flame Spirit King's strength went so far beyond what he first showed?" Gulseni asked the Serpent Totem. As the head of the Vermilion Brides, she had access to kilometers worth of information, and knew the Flame Spirit King's true identity: Azad Diljem. 

Over 20,000 years ago, Azad Diljem led the Diljem Blood Crows as the clan master. Just like Sangar, he first served as Blood-Feather City's lord, but after becoming a top-tier Celestial Knight, was promoted to become one of the Edict Supervisors of the Divine Palace. A promotion from the sixth to the fourth rank of officialdom wasn't unheard of. But as such graces were typically reserved for the top clans, Agiri's move drew much criticism. Azad, however, did his job to perfection, and shut down all the voices.
