Bab 818: Impending Storm

Once news of Tombkeeper Village's recent allegiance spread, shock filled the Eastern State and continued to spread throughout the entirety of the Nine States.

Palace Lord Ye Futian of the Holy Zhi Palace in the Barren State had activated the Nether Sword Matrix within the Nether Sword Mound and slaughtered the Chess Saint. In doing so he had gained the inheritance of the Sword Saint of the Void.

From then on, Tombkeeper Village would be subordinate to the Barren State. The Village Chief of Tombkeeper Village was a saint and entered the Holy Zhi Palace as a Holy Elder so that the Barren State could now possess saints.
