Chapter 547 Investigating The Glerian Kingdom

The Archangels explained the entire situation to the Radiant God upon returning to the Central Cathedral in Zavega, Lamhilhan Theocracy's Capital.

The Radiant God fell in deep thought 'Not only did we lose our Holy Weapon to the Great Qin Empire, but also the Glerian Kingdom's territory in one swoop. I must inform the council about these losses in the next assembly. They are far too huge to keep them concealed.'

The Radiant God didn't want to inform the whole story to the council. Once they find out that the Radiant God had concealed the information regarding a reincarnated Demon God, they would act against him.

However, if he continued to conceal this information, the council members would soon investigate the disappearance of the God-Ranked Weapon. In fact, they would also investigate the death of so many Archangels working under the Radiant Church. Thus, it would lead them to investigate the Glerian Kingdom.

Before long, they would realize that this all related to a reincarnated Demon God. The council members would be greatly displeased to know that the Radiant God was trying to keep such a piece of big news to himself.

They would start acting against the Radiant Church covertly. The Radiant God didn't want such invisible threats, so he planned to come clean immediately.

At the most, the council would place sanctions on him. The Radiant God could handle the sanctions, but he didn't want to be on the receiving end of some deadly scheme.

In the council, the Radiant God's hated enemy, the Clyranis God, would definitely take advantage of this situation. Thus, the Radiant God had to be completely prepared before informing the council of the entire truth!

To accomplish that, the Radiant God had ordered all his subordinates to gather every bit of information regarding the Glerian Kingdom and inform him if they found anything amiss or strange.

It would be an incredible achievement if he could present a full report on what the Demon God had executed in the Glerian Kingdom. How did he reincarnate, and what was his ambition?

If he could get the answers to these questions, the Radiant God could state that he was analyzing the Demon God and receive the council's favor. At the least, the majority's favor in the council.

This would greatly limit the damage to his reputation!

The Radiant God wanted to keep the fact concealed that he infiltrated the Frascoia Continent through that risky method but still failed to kill Azaroth.

Unfortunately, the Radiant God was bound to be disappointed in the next assembly since this was the first issue the Clyranis God would raise!

The Clyranis God naturally received a full update from one of Tronte's subordinates. The Radiant God's clone hadn't thought that Azaroth would make him assimilate with his spirit in the clone. The aftermath created by Tronte's subordinates was far too great for the Radiant God or even the entire Radiant Church.

They were the ones to immediately inform Shun of the entire situation after Tronte's death. Moreover, they were the ones to identify Azaroth and confirm his identity for Shun and the Nine Yin Saintess.

And even more importantly, they spilled the beans to the Emissaries of Clyranis!

The next assembly would certainly be adventurous for the Radiant God!

But fortunately for the Radiant God, he wasn't going to be empty-handed in the assembly. His subordinates infiltrated the Glerian Kingdom and gathered all information regarding the Glerian Kingdom.

It took them nearly two months to acquire all of the information from the previous two years in the Glerian Kingdom.

After analyzing it thoroughly, they realized that there was nothing strange regarding the last two years of the Glerian Kingdom.

Some organizations rose from nothing, while others bit the dust. The overall power of the Glerian Kingdom remained the same.

A soldier rose from the lowest rank to become the leader of one of the most influential ranks of the army. Some more organizations rose, and the Glerian Kingdom flourished greatly.

The only organization they found a bit suspicious was the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect. It was established just a year ago, but it had already become a top-grade sect. This rate of growth was a bit too quick.

Rumors regarding it spread all over the Glerian Kingdom. People said that the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect was supported by a powerful figure. There were all sorts of rare ice techniques available in the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect.

Moreover, this sect had accompanied the Black Lake Sect to slaughter the Night Mountain Sect, which eventually led them to a conflict with the Royal Family of the Glerian Kingdom.

This sect was strange that this newly established sect actually didn't bow down to the Royal Family's wishes. Instead, it actively engaged them in warfare.

The Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect also used strange mist arrays to conceal its precise location. Even a group led by two 6 Star Warriors failed to return.

The Radiant Church's followers felt that the Radiant God must know everything regarding this sect. Thus, they gathered all sorts of information regarding it. All the rumors were filed, and the pope personally wrote a detailed report.

The Radiant God naturally received that detailed report from the pope of the Radiant Church within the Lamhilhan Theocracy.

Holding the report, the Radiant God read the name of the organizations and the leader's name, "Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect, Tiana. That mist technique must be the array formation known as the Mist Confusion Path Array. This is a long-lost ancient array formation. Either this woman inherited an expert's legacy and learned this array formation from it, or it was someone else who constructed that formation for her."

The Radiant God knew that the Glerian Kingdom didn't possess this ancient array formation since they had never executed it. The Royal Family couldn't conceal an array formation like this if they did possess it.

His followers didn't find any of Azaroth's other retainers.

The Radiant Church's followers didn't find Sargan or his secret intelligence organization since Sargan dealt with all the loose ends before heading to the Eastern Mountain Range.

At the least, the Radiant God's followers needed to dig a lot deeper if they wanted to find a trace or evidence regarding Sargan's presence or involvement.

Noah's Heretical Paladins was a general under the crown. He didn't seem so suspicious to the King.

Laura's Noble Guardians had done nothing but resolved trouble for the civilians. Other groups like it did this kind of social work.

Yrellea's Misty Flower Pavilion had local gangs in each city supporting it, so her organization could be considered rather influential, but at the end of the day, it was merely an entertainment center and bar. It didn't cause much trouble for anyone other than the Dragon and Tiger Palace.

Ralph's Ancestral Tiger's Gang wasn't found since it wasn't so impressive compared to the other organizations on the list.

Meanwhile, William didn't create an organization. He roamed around the Glerian Kingdom to gather experience so his notoriety couldn't be compared to Azaroth's other retainers.

But still, analyzing nearly all organizations in the Glerian Kingdom within two months was no easy task! Even more so when they managed to single out the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect that truly had a connection with Azaroth.

However, the Radiant God still wasn't sure of his guess. He was aiming blindly and hoping that it struck the target. He wanted nothing more than to charge into the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect to capture the sect mistress.

It was a pity that his followers in the Glerian Kingdom and the Sinyalian Kingdom were limited. And they had to do the Radiant God's task covertly. This was all due to the Emissaries of Clyranis.

The Emissaries would immediately kill as they find a follower of the Radiant Church!

In the meantime, the Holy Apostle of the Clyranis God/ the Queen of the Sinyalian Kingdom, Irene, utilized the Sinyalian Kingdom's resources to investigate all the organizations in the newly acquired Sinyalian Kingdom's territory that could be a threat to them since most of the organizations in the Glerian Kingdom's territory hadn't submitted properly.

In the past two months, her envoys met the leaders of each organization and threatened them or come to a settlement with them.

As Irene kept dealing with the organizations on that list, she soon came across the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect.

Her envoys visited that sect and returned to inform her that the Sect Master was no longer present. There was an Acting Sect Mistress who would represent the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect.

Irene frowned slightly as she recalled that something similar was the case with the Misty Flower Pavilion. She wondered if these two cases were similar. The Misty Flower Pavilion could be ignored since its power was rather low, but the same couldn't be spoken about the Sacred Ice Aurora Valley Sect.

Irene knew that her guess was a bit too wild, but she didn't want to take any chances. David had assigned her this task while he handled the nobles of the Sinyalian Kingdom and split apart the newly acquired Glerian Kingdom's territory.

Sometime later, she found out that the leaders of the Noble Guardians and Heretical Paladins were missing too. Her suspicion grew as her intuition told her that something was going on.

She informed all her spies in the cities to find out the leaders of these organizations. She was worried that they were forming an even larger organization to cause internal unrest within the new territory of the Sinyalian Kingdom.

Irene planned to crush this organization before it could cause an uprising. After two weeks of asking in nearly every town or city, Irene found traces of their tracks. Those tracks led her to the Eastern Mountain Range.

Even with all sorts of precautions, Azaroth's retainers couldn't cover their tracks entirely since they weren't traveling alone. Each one moved with a group and not everyone in that group had the same talent or cultivation as Azaroth's retainers. Thus, each one inevitably left behind some traces, except for Sargan. Some people witnessed a few of these groups heading East.

Irene was a bit confused regarding this Eastern Mountain Range. Apparently, even though it was a part of the Glerian Kingdom, the Royal Family of the Glerian Kingdom didn't directly control it.

According to the residents, independent tribes resided in the Eastern Mountain Range. These tribes maintained a cordial relationship with the Royal Family of the Glerian Kingdom.

They knew that confronting the Royal Family of the Glerian Kingdom would be disastrous for them, so they sent an annual tribute to the Royal Family to keep themselves out of danger.

The Royal Family also didn't bother with them since they received a rather generous annual tribute. King Tryfon Rellas figured that invading the Eastern Mountain Range would be extremely hazardous since they didn't know about the enemy's power or the geographic terrain.

It wasn't that King Tryfon Rellas hadn't tried taking over the Eastern Mountain Range, but he couldn't. The tribes in this mountain range managed to resist a party of five 6 Star Warriors!

The King realized that he couldn't take over the Eastern Mountain Range by force and happily accepted that annual tribute to maintain a cordial relationship with these tribes.

This was a very beneficial deal for these tribes since it allowed them to trade the minerals and materials useless to them in exchange for some weapons.

However, this peace was going to come to an end as Irene informed David Valliadis that some influential leaders were on the Eastern Mountain Range, and they could be planning a rebellion.

David Valliadis frowned slightly as he didn't want to deal with a rebellion. He first decided to parley with these tribes in the Eastern Mountain Range and find out more about the situation. If Irene's suspicions turned out to be true, he would have to crush these organizations vigorously and swiftly.
