Three days after the Demon Sacrifice Tower incident concluded, the Qin Emperor decreed a royal reward for the Black Sky Sect and held a banquet in the Palace.
As for Zhou Dao, for his meritorious service in guarding the treasures, he too received numerous rewards.
Three hundred thousand Returning Origin Pills, five mid-grade spiritual tools, ten lakes of Ice-fire Fine Wine, nine pairs of Ruyi Ginseng Kings... The sum of the rewards was on par with the wealth of a marquis.
This also reflected the Palace's generous reward to Sir Zongbao.
Outside, people were saying that Lord Yuan was extraordinary. Not only did he achieve enlightenment at a young age, but he also won the favor of the Qin Emperor, who treated him like a junior, with an unprecedented level of support in the past thirty years.
Some predicted that within ten years, Lord Yuan would surely become a pillar of the court, wielding great influence.
