C3697 Five Giants

When Weiyang Palace and Jiang Cheng's Mansion started their battle, Weiyang Palace was still far from being the strongest power in Great Reef.

Judging from the area of influence, Weiyang Palace's entire territory, would only be a quarter of the Haodang Mountain. The number of Divine Kings under his command would be about half of the Haodang Mountain, which was two-thirds of the trading posts, shops, and caravans, which was two-fifths of the Qianchuan.

From these hard data, Weiyang Gong's Great Reef could only be considered a mid-scale power.

However, the construction of Weiyang Palace only lasted for a short eighty years.

And Haodang Mountain, Morality Sect, had already been established for several million years, for several tens of millions of years.

In terms of influence and status, there was no one who could compete with Weiyang Gong.

In the face of Wu Steel Palace, regardless of whether it was Haodang Mountain, Qianchuan, or even the many small forces that were honorary leaders of Golden Cauldron King, they all chose to retreat.

Looking at their overall strength, their Jiang Cheng's Mansion wasn't too different from Weiyang Gong's. Therefore, after the war began, although their Jiang Cheng's Mansion were at a disadvantage and started to lose in many battles, they were all small defeats that didn't affect their vitality.

Until the Morality Sect declared war on the Jiang Cheng's Mansion as well.

No matter how one looked at it, the declaration of war by the Morality Sect meant that they were forced into a corner.

Because Morality Sect had to make a choice, whether it was Weiyang Palace or Jiang Cheng's Mansion, in the end, from the point of view of Morality Sect, it was obvious that they could not become enemies with Weiyang Palace, thus, they declared war on Jiang Cheng's Mansion.

The proclamation of war in the Morality Sect was not substantial, and it merely sealed the borders of a few Jiang Cheng's Mansion s, causing a few small scale battles to occur. These battles usually consisted of a dozen or even a few Divine Kings, and in addition, the Morality Sect s destroyed a mercenary that was invited by the Jiang Cheng's Mansion s.

This group of mercenaries came from outside of Great Reef, and consisted of one thousand two hundred Hundreds of Celestial Kings. Before they had even reached the battlefield, they had passed by Morality Sect and were attacked.

The declaration of war on Morality Sect caused the morale of the Jiang Cheng's Mansion to drop even further, also caused many of the small forces that were initially led by Jiang Cheng's Mansion to become fearful of the battle, and began to negotiate privately with Weiyang Gong.

After a few months, Jiang Cheng's Mansion had still not suffered a major defeat. However, due to the failure of a large number of small scale battles, Jiang Cheng's Mansion's vitality was already severely injured, and the legion in his hands had already lost close to a third of their troops. In addition to the various borders being sealed, many of the small forces under his command had surrendered to Weiyang Palace and Morality Sect, and the sound of peace talks had already begun to resound from the inside.

At the beginning of the eighty-fifth year, Jiang Cheng's Mansion lost a quarter of its land, and a few hastily advancing and raiding legions set fire to the heart of Jiang Cheng's Mansion. The Jiang Cheng's Mansion's leader, Wook'e, chose to negotiate with Palace Lord of the Steel Palace.

The two of them met at an ancient temple within the borders of Jiang Cheng's Mansion.

In the end, the Jiang Cheng's Mansion surrendered.

The result was that most of the land that was already occupied by the Jiang Cheng's Mansion could be returned, but there were a few ports that needed to be rented to Weiyang Palace for 990 years. After the rental period expired, Weiyang Palace still had the power to continue building shops and business in these ports.

Furthermore, the captives captured by Weiyang Gong had to be exchanged with a certain amount of pure gold.

And in a war, the number of dead and injured Weiyang Gong soldiers had to be compensated according to the number of their heads in Jiang Cheng's Mansion. These compensation would all be distributed to the families of the dead and wounded warriors.

Those who submitted to the Jiang Cheng's Mansion and declared war against Weiyang Gong, Weiyang Palace would not pursue the matter. Those who surrendered along with the Jiang Cheng's Mansion, Weiyang Palace would not return any of their occupied land, and those who were captured, these small forces would have to use pure gold to exchange for it.

In addition to these treaties, there are hundreds of others, large and small.

After that, there were four more negotiations. The terms of the treaty had changed, and Weiyang Gong had more or less made some concessions. However, by the time the contract was finally signed, Jiang Cheng's Mansion had already been severely damaged.

Originally, Great Reef's strength wasn't too far off from Weiyang Gong's, and there was a possibility that it could grow into a giant power. However, after this battle, Jiang Cheng's Mansion would be completely reduced to the periphery of power, and the authority in the entire Great Reef would become very low in the future.

As for the leader of Jiang Cheng's Mansion, Peak Overlord Master Wu Zhu, after reading the contract, he immediately left the Great Reef and went to the eight Divine Kingdoms to assume the position of Alien Minister. He did not continue to pay attention to the Great Reef because he did not have much oil left.

Not only was it Weiyang Gong, Morality Sect was also the form of a declaration of war against Jiang Cheng's Mansion, concluding a contract with Jiang Cheng's Mansion. Jiang Cheng's Mansion was also given a certain amount of compensation.

It was truly a loss of troops and a loss of face.

After defeating the Jiang Cheng's Mansion, there were no longer any real enemies within the boundaries of the Great Reef. No one dared to challenge the might of Weiyang Gong anymore, and all the dukes had seen the situation clearly. In the face of Weiyang Gong's rapid rise, various forces all chose to tacitly accept, and even conceded. Morality Sect was even more so, when forced to participate in the battle, they never offended Weiyang Gong, and instead declared war on Jiang Cheng's Mansion.

Therefore, Weiyang Palace expanded rapidly. Many forces sided with Weiyang Palace, and many forces directly incorporated into Weiyang Palace. The leaders of those forces also obtained some posts or land in Weiyang Palace.

In the year 87, Weiyanggong established the Great Assembly.0

Because in this year, the land that Weiyang Palace controlled was no longer a giant city, it also included over seventy branch cities, over twenty large trading ports, tens of thousands of trading posts, shops, three Trade Union s, and many other small forces that were subordinate to Weiyang Palace. And among these small forces, there were quite a few that were inclined to directly integrate into Weiyang Palace.

At this point, the administrative structure of Weiyang Palace could not control such a huge territory, nor could it cope with the rapidly growing power.

The Grand Council was born.

In other words, the leader of the City Guard Regiment in Weiyang Palace, the leaders of the various leaders and officials of the Executive Hall, as well as the officials of the prisons and other organizations, as well as the city lords and managers of the various branches of the city, the chief of the various businesses in the outside world, and the leaders of the various members of the Trade Union, could all elect to be members of the Grand Council.

And the big council will become the top manager of the huge Weiyang Alliance.

All the highest-ranking bills, systems, and orders will be issued by the Grand Council.

From then on, Weiyang Palace was no longer the name of this huge power. This huge power officially changed its name to the Weiyang Alliance. The leaders of all the new powers that joined the Weiyang Alliance naturally had the qualifications to run for a big council member.

On the ninetieth anniversary of the establishment of Weiyang Palace, the territory of Weiyang Palace, the number of Divine Kings, the ability to trade, and overall strength were all about the same as Haodang Mountain, Morality Sect, and it seemed as though it had become another giant of the Great Reef.

On the day of the Great Qing, Haodang Mountain leader Xuan Dewu, Qianchuan leader Ren Xifeng, and Qianchuan leader Ren Xifeng, along with Golden Cauldron King, who had always been on both sides of the source and was quite famous in every region of the Universe of Eight Kings, all came to celebrate and signed a large number of treaties with the Liu Steel Palace to negotiate with each other. They also agreed to work together with the Liu Steel Palace to maintain order in the Great Reef, to form an alliance defense army and a large-scale trading caravan, and to eliminate all those who dared to threaten the road of Great Reef together.

A new order was born.

And Palace Lord of Weiyang, Haodang Mountain King, Morality Sect Sect Master, Qianchuan Boss, and Golden Cauldron King, the five of them were thus called the Five Great Leaders of Great Reef.

Although there were still a few powerful, independent Peak Overlord s within the Great Reef that did not interact with Weiyang Gong, facing the five giants, the strength and influence of these people were far inferior.
