章 1697: Progress 

Another eight months passed in the blink of an eye!

After this long period of tension between the western and southern regions, the Central Continent was still not experiencing an all-out war, but tempers were slowly reaching worrying levels.

This was true for the southernmost part of the continent. However, in the north, things were going relatively well, with peace and development.

Some new Spiritual Sages had appeared in this state during the intervening period, some men from the Gray Clouds Sect and other individuals part of the Goddess of Life family group.

With these new 9th-stage experts, Minos had finally made the final exchanges regarding the Gray Clouds Sect, and now only 2 Spiritual Sages from that sect remained in the Flaming Empire.

All the other sect members now lived in the Black Plain Empire.

Due to these exchanges, there were now 3 Spiritual Sages in the Flaming Empire, the largest number in the entire history of this state!
