Three trading houses and four families were completely annihilated overnight, and when the news spread the next day, the entire city was in shock.
No one expected these powerful families and trading houses, with millions of years of heritage, to be destroyed. It's said none were left, blood flowed like rivers inside.
The next day, the City Guards were busy cleaning up, collecting bodies. This matter had a great impact and didn't bode well for the image of the Divine Country.
The Divine Emperor was furious, deeply shocked that so many forces were wiped out right under his nose. Though this incident was somewhat beneficial to him, it also somewhat humiliated him, indicating that people clearly didn't take him seriously, or else they would not have acted against those families.
A person beyond his control staying in the Capital was very dangerous.
"Notify everyone not to disturb the Elixir Pavilion," he ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
