Looking at the chaotic flow of rules around him, Zhao Guang nodded with satisfaction.

Without using his stored Divine Power, the two together were no match for his clone.

Not counting his powerful recovery ability and various Talent Abilities, this clone was not much weaker than himself. Of course, if you include his BUG-level talents, then there's quite a difference.

This clone, even if it engages in battle with veteran Demigods, might be able to win.

The reason for saying "might" isn't weak strength, but some people may have special trump cards.

No one who reaches the Demigod Level is simple. Although understanding Divine Arts and Laws is difficult, some people have special abilities, unknown to others.

After the experiment, Xi Fei admired this clone even more.

The combat power of this clone seemed stronger than her own. Although her clone was combat-oriented, it couldn't inherit all her abilities — some Skills her clone couldn't use.

Meanwhile, Sephidya was full of fighting spirit; learning this would allow her to surpass Xi Fei on some level.

So what if you have four clones, under the same level, I am not unable to resist.

Sephidya's fighting spirit against Xi Fei was really tenacious, making Zhao Guang a bit helpless.

Forget it, there will always be a chance to change slowly in the future. Now Sephidya is still very young and will gradually change her personality. The nature of a giant dragon is inherently combative, regardless of which type.

Within a few days, the Xuanwu Kingdom publicly announced the establishment of their Empire.

Upon hearing this news, various countries began to act, sending their congratulations.

With the establishment of the Empire, things at all levels need to change.

Fortunately, because the country's development time was originally short, it has been constantly climbing upwards. In terms of population, many have joined, but ultimately they joined in different batches.

The earlier one enters, the better treatment and status they receive.

Nobody cares about this. Their lives are much better now than before, and they have not fully adapted yet, so naturally, they won't compete over some matters.

In this situation, the power shifts inside the Empire proceeded smoothly.

The exchanges with the surrounding countries and the Xuanwu Empire also began to change.

Things previously hard to handle in name could now be conducted on an equal footing.

This made the Xuanwu Empire appear dignified, and the others also felt respected. No matter how strong they were compared to you, countries became equal; this is what most of them think.

As for the matter of the Xuanwu Kingdom having no nobles, everyone instinctively chose to ignore it.

No, it's not that they don't have any nobles; there are noble titles.

However, it's just a title, enjoying some privileges, but lacking the noble status and vast rights of other countries. As for Lords, they are not found in the Xuanwu Kingdom.

A vast country rises gradually, reaching its peak now.

But not long after, another explosive piece of news came: the Evil God Empire was destroyed.

In fact, they had collapsed long ago, just using various methods to delay the inevitable.

In the process, the followers of the Evil God caused enormous harm to the followers of the Order Temple. What seemed like a mutually uninfluencing situation rekindled due to hate, creating even greater and deeper animosities.

This explains one reason for their increasingly bloody conflicts recently.

The thoroughly collapsed Evil God Empire can no longer revert to the alliance of small states it once was.

Now completely managed by the Temple, the harsh management of which accepts no compromise, the various major organizations and families here suffer greatly.

Every day, many are left with no way to live, forced to revolt, and then get annihilated.

In this context, the City of Death in the north voluntarily shrank its scope.

They don't wish to be involved, for if so, they couldn't rival the Temple Alliance with their strength.

Moreover, they have to watch out for other countries. Fortunately, the Temple Alliance currently isn't interested in them, focused instead on capturing every Evil God follower, leaving none behind.

All in all, the south is in complete chaos, with an empire newly established for less than two years now annihilated.

From the Order Temple's Main Temple side, accolades were immediately sent.

But because they have numerous concerns themselves, they couldn't send people for substantial rewards. But even so, those guys were jubilant, proclaiming their achievements everywhere.

It's a pity that now most attention is still on the Xuanwu Empire.

Sweeping the southern Evil God Empire might bring honor, but the Xuanwu Kingdom's development in the north offers profit, and everyone knows which is more valuable.

Not to mention, the north once again announced their intent to expand their growth.

The entire northern region was incorporated into the Xuanwu Empire's national development plan. Now, they completely border the Flying Beast Alliance to the west. However, it's clear that the Flying Beast Alliance wouldn't dare provoke them.

On the contrary, they are eager to curry favor with them, greatly yearning for the Magic Net and the virtual world.

But this is a massive project; developing the entire north will not be a short term task. Even with Zhao Guang's ability, it wouldn't take less than ten or twenty years.

Ultimately, it's a long-term project, with vast material and personnel requirements.

Thus, the Xuanwu Empire again increased cooperation with major countries, purchasing a massive amount of various goods. This trading process greatly accelerated development for these countries.

Even on the Temple Alliance side, who suffered significant losses in the war, sought to recover soon and finally humbled themselves, strengthening trade with Zhao Guang.

This was partly due to Karandu eliminating the original die-hards; otherwise, with those guys present, strengthening trade with Zhao Guang would've been impossible.

Yet, even so, the relationship between Zhao Guang and the Temple remained strained, both sides never seeing eye to eye.

Zhao Guang continued to cut figuratively with soft knives, while the Temple quietly spread unfavorable things about the Xuanwu Empire; the covert struggle between them never ceased.
