Chapter 50: The Political Storm
The royal court of Dawnriver was a political tempest. Lin Xuan, now at 8th Layer Qi Transformation, stood at the center. The breakthrough had come after nights of grueling meditation. The Prime Minister, at 8th Layer Qi Transformation, allied with the Xun Clan and challenged Ji Yunjing's leadership.
Ji Yunjing, at 3rd Layer Profound Heavenly Realm, held his ground. Lin Xuan exposed the plot with a scroll, demanding a trial. The court erupted. Liu Yue, now at 4th Layer Qi Transformation, grew into her leadership role, organizing the defense.
Liu Yang, at 1st Layer Qi Gathering, faced an intensifying identity crisis. Bai Ningxue, advancing to 7th Layer Qi Transformation, sealed the court's qi. Ji Yunjing declared a purge. Lin Xuan planned their next move, his resolve a beacon amidst the chaos.
