Listening to the landlady's incessant storytelling, Chen Qing finally managed to grasp the situation here.
As he had suspected, once the Giant Serpent of the Northern Territory had revived the basic scale of the Earth Python, those guilds stopped their foolish short-sighted exploitation. Moreover, the situation in the Central Plains was too sensitive, and many were afraid to act rashly. Combined with the fact that resources would first come from the Arctic, the mortals here in the Northern Wasteland became targets for proselytism.
Proselytism was the best way to attract followers and also the most effective way to control the common people. Chen Qing had anticipated this, but he hadn't expected Zi Yue to achieve such a complete victory.
