章節 57: Chapter 57: The Chu Family's Internal Troubles and External Threats_1

```

Mu Changtian was assassinated on his way to exile, and before his death, he used the Blood Ignition Skill and took three Grandmasters down with him—an incident that quickly spread throughout Great Sum.

With Mu Changtian's death, the Sum Emperor completely seized control of the military power in Great Sum, now commanding millions of soldiers.

Moreover, all these military leaders were personally promoted by the Sum Emperor, and the vast majority of them were absolutely loyal to him.

Holding so many soldiers in his hand, what did the Sum Emperor want to do? What would he do? The Aristocratic Families within Great Sum were not fools.

Shortly, the number of merchant caravans within Great Sum surged, particularly in the territories of the Seigniors, where the numbers doubled.

Of course, except in North City.

The merchant caravans were just a cover for the Aristocratic Families, who used them to travel around and collude with various powers.
