The Northern Region Lord's cultivation had always been low!
In the past, his cultivation was only at Transcendent Realm but Emperor Tianqi still allowed him to defend the north for a few thousand years!
Everyone said that it was because Tianqi was being kind and treating his brother well.
Some said that it was because the Northern Region Lord had such an amazing father in law which meant that Emperor Tianqi had to treat him well.
In truth, even the Northern Region Lord's wife felt that way!
The Northern Region Lord was in charge of the north because her father was strong!
Without her father, what right did the Northern Region Lord have to defend the north?
With his small bit of cultivation?
This was why during the few thousand years there, the Northern Region Lord seized power. The Northern Region Lord was labelled after the north, but in truth, his wife was the one who was in charge.
