Capítulo 48: Chapter 48 Reactions from All Sides_1

```

In the Xuantian Hall, a pall of gloom hung heavy.

Although Tianxuan Mountain was one of the Four Great Sects of Leizhou, with a Hollow Realm Master sitting at its helm, it fell far short of the level of the Daqian Empire, not even ranked among the Ten Major Sects.

Faced with the formidable Daqian Empire, Tianxuan Mountain had no choice but to comply with its orders. Otherwise, the Daqian Empire wouldn't hesitate to annihilate any disobedient sects.

Caught in this great maelstrom, Tianxuan Mountain did not hold the Daqian Empire in high regard, yet it was forced to side with it. This didn't mean that Tianxuan Mountain would serve the Daqian Empire wholeheartedly and willingly.

"Prince Wu'an's presence in Sanzhou surely has hidden agendas. Exterminating the remnants of the White Lotus Cult is just the first step, a test for the various factions in Sanzhou to see if they are aligned with the Daqian Empire," spoke an Elder of the God Refining Realm in a deep voice.
