Wu Shattered Star River

"Seconded!"

"As it should be!"

"I even think it's too little. After all, without Jiang Han, we wouldn't know when we could return!"

"One-tenth is enough. Jiang Han probably wouldn't want more!"

"I think one-tenth is acceptable!"

A group of strong individuals seconded the proposal one after another. Just as Yao Ao said, Jiang Han might refuse, but they couldn't fail to offer it.

Moreover, Jiang Han was the leader of the Light Sect. In the future, the Winterfrost Gate would have many areas where they would rely on Jiang Han. Even if they didn't provide resources, Jiang Han would definitely help, but giving one-tenth of the resources was equivalent to binding the Jiang family and the Winterfrost Gate together.

This proposal passed without any dispute. Even if some strong individuals had ulterior motives, they wouldn't dare to voice them. After all, the Winterfrost Land was reclaimed with Jiang Han's help, and those several Dao Ancestor Realm Eighth Level experts were still residing in Heavenly Scale Mountain.

Next, the various races began to discuss the matter of the Council of Elders that Jiang Han had mentioned, and ultimately decided to establish a large Council of Elders.

Major clans could each nominate one or two elders. The decisions of the Council of Elders would be the supreme policy of the Winterfrost Gate.

For example, if the Council of Elders decided to replace the Winterfrost Gate Master, the Gate Master must accept it unconditionally—this was proposed by Yao Ao, precisely to reassure the various clans.

For Yao Ao, as long as he and Jiang Han didn't die, the position of Winterfrost Gate Master could only be his. Even if experts from various clans broke through to the Dao Ancestor Realm Eighth Level, they wouldn't be able to compete with him.

Although the Council of Elders was composed of the clan leaders of various races, in truly important matters, once he expressed his stance, even if the various races opposed, he could still obtain more than half of the votes and forcefully implement the decision.

With the establishment of the Council of Elders system, the clan leaders of various races felt comfortable and secretly excited.

Because with the existence of the Council of Elders, the interests of the various races could be fully protected, and the various races saw the hope of ascending to higher positions.

In case Yao Ao died in battle one day, the various races would have the opportunity to rise to power. As long as they became the Winterfrost Gate Master, it would indirectly mean becoming the Great Emperor of the Winterfrost Land.

The existence of the Council of Elders system would ensure the interests of the various races as much as possible. If the interests of the various races were harmed, the Council of Elders could be convened for discussion.

If more than half of the Council of Elders voted in favor, even Yao Ao must comply. If Yao Ao didn't comply, the Winterfrost Gate would fall apart, and Jiang Han would have nothing to say!

A group of strong individuals discussed for five days and five nights, basically perfecting the various systems.

Yao Ao then invited Jiang Han again, informing him of the results of the discussion. Jiang Han was very satisfied upon hearing this, and he nodded, saying, "Let's do it this way for now. I've already let them go up first. Uncle Yao, you stay in the Lower Realm for now and oversee the management of the Lower Realm, planning the organizational structure of the Winterfrost Gate."

"Then, mobilize the army and strong individuals to search for the hidden realms and void realms of the Heavenly Scale Clan. In the future, the main tasks of the Lower Realm are: first, to manage the people of the Lower Realm and discover and cultivate geniuses; second, to collect resources; and third, to find the Heavenly Scale Clan!"

"I understand!"

Yao Ao nodded. Jiang Han tossed a spatial artifact to Yao Ao and said, "This spatial artifact was given to me by Pei Zhu. It can bring cultivators from the Lower Realm to the Upper Realm freely."

"Later, go to the Land of Gods and see if you can buy a few more of these spatial artifacts to facilitate the free movement of Winterfrost Gate cultivators between the Upper and Lower Realms. I'll go to the Land of Heavenly Demons to take a look. You guys handle the remaining matters."

"Okay!"

Yao Ao knew that Jiang Han was going to the Land of Heavenly Demons to absorb the Demonic Qi and fuse the Primordial Chaos Power, so he didn't interfere.

Jiang Han left the main hall and went to the other estates, letting Mo Xie, Lan Mo, and the others go to the Upper Realm first. There was nothing else to do in the Winterfrost Land, and it was meaningless for Mo Xie and the others to stay here.

Jiang Han handed over the captured cultivators to Mo Xie and the others, letting them send them to Light City, which was considered a contribution to them and an opportunity to show their faces in the Light Sect.

Several cultivators took all the prisoners to the Upper Realm. This time, the number of prisoners wasn't particularly large, totaling over a thousand, mostly from the Heavenly Scale Clan.

The remaining were all high-level members of the major clans under the Heavenly Scale Clan. Sending over a thousand strong individuals to Light City to be beheaded should be enough to deter many cultivators with dissenting thoughts.

Heavenly Scale Mountain had been recovered, and Jiang Han didn't need to go to the Land of Heavenly Demons from the secret realm anymore, but directly entered from the Ancestral Dragon Sea.

Once inside, it was Chi Xie's territory. Jiang Han went to visit Chi Xie and informed him of the situation in the Winterfrost Land.

Chi Xie was sincerely happy for Jiang Han after hearing this. Jiang Han then informed him of the situation in the Upper Realm, which made Chi Xie somewhat worried.

However, for the Land of Heavenly Demons, even if the Dark Dao destroyed the Light Dao, the impact on the Land of Heavenly Demons would not be great, unless the Kan Clan came down to enslave the entire Land of Heavenly Demons.

Jiang Han then began to absorb the Demonic Qi in Chi Xie's palace, which made Chi Xie's clansmen very depressed.

Each prefecture was to have a prefect, and two deputy prefects. Moreover, the prefect and deputy prefects would be shuffled and exchanged every five years. The prefect and deputy prefects were strong individuals from different major clans, so that they could supervise each other.

In addition, a patrol department was established, with each clan sending a strong individual to patrol around, directly under the Council of Elders. A court department was also established, directly under the Council of Elders.

In this way, the power of the Council of Elders was infinitely amplified, and Yao Ao's position as the Gate Master was greatly restricted.

Yao Ao had no objections!

Because the Yao Clan occupied the largest share within the Winterfrost Gate, the Winterfrost Gate's strength and survival would benefit the Yao Clan.

With the checks and balances of the various clans, the Yao Clan would have a sense of crisis, and the younger generation within the clan would work harder to cultivate, forming a virtuous circle.

Three secret realms where the Heavenly Scale Clan was hiding were found, and a small void realm was also found, hiding hundreds of millions of Heavenly Scale Clan members.

Since they had been found, the only ending was death. The Heavenly Scale Clan members inside were all slaughtered, and a large amount of resources transferred into it by the Heavenly Scale Clan were confiscated.

"News has come down from the Upper Realm!"

Yao Ao solemnly told Jiang Han a piece of bad news: "The Dark Dao and the Ice Snow Clan have launched another attack. The Light Dao has organized a large army to resist, fighting fiercely for a day and a night. In the end, the Light Dao was defeated."

"The Dark Dao and the Ice Snow Clan advanced all the way, capturing eight cities in a row. There is also news from the Thunder Dao that the Flame Dao and the Ice Snow Clan attacked and captured five more cities!"

"I'm going up!"

Jiang Han couldn't sit still after hearing the news. He stood up and said, "Uncle Yao, you handle the affairs here. After things stabilize, you should also lead a team to the Upper Realm as soon as possible. We have to do our part for the Light Dao, otherwise, if the nest is overturned, we will all be finished."

"I know!"

Yao Ao nodded. Jiang Han was deeply tied to the Winterfrost Gate. Jiang Han had killed so many Kan Clan members. If the Light Sect was finished, Jiang Han and the Winterfrost Gate would be doomed!
