It was already April, and it was only a few days before the ascension of the new ruler. The tension between the military forces in the city was not yet settled, and other than the Amethyst Cape Knights and Iron Guards, the forces in the city did not dare to act rashly. This was because whoever attacked first would attract the fury of all others, and therefore suffer the most. Everyone was waiting for the Emperor's decree and the ascension of the new Emperor. Some waited for a powerful force to manage the chaos in the city, though whoever did that could instead be overwhelmed by the mess.
Xuanji's capital city was silently waiting for change.
But no one knew who would direct the change.
On the second day of the lunar month of April, there was a drizzle.
