Chapter 503: Ancient Sword Division
Soon, news about the destruction of the Winged Devil Race spread throughout the Primordial God Realm. Their extinction came as a surprise to many since the Winged Devil Race was a powerful force with two Heavenly God Realm experts at their helm. However, such a powerful race was actually killed overnight! No one knew who was responsible for the massacre and even the Dark Devil Race who controlled the Winged Devils remained silent about the rumors.
In the territory of the Dark Devil Race, a bloodied Domas stood in front of Berith. The blood that covered his armor and skin wasn't his but the blood of the countless Winged Devils he had slain!
"Lord Berith, I've accomplished the task." Domas cupped his fists as he bowed lightly. His voice was cold and unfeeling, not even a hint of remorse was present on his face.
Berith glanced at the bloody Domas with a calm look and nodded his head. "Good work. Make sure that the soldiers will remain tight-lip about this matter. We can't afford to offend that wine store for now. We should also cease our investigations about them and continue our expansion in other areas."
Domas nodded his head in understanding. With the Winged Devils gone, there shouldn't be a problem for them. However, he still felt perturbed every time he recalled what he had seen in the dragon building.
"Yes, Lord Berith. I'll make sure that everyone who joined the expedition will keep quiet about this matter."
"Alright. You may leave now." Berith waved his hand and leaned on his chair.
Domas cupped his fist and left the room.
"Is it truly Jian Wang?" Berith who was alone in the room muttered to himself with an uncertain tone.

The merging of the God Sword Region and the Heavenly Sword Tower was successful. Although the disciples of the two sects were still unfamiliar with each other, the two sides were in an amicable relationship. It wouldn't take long for them to familiarize themselves with each other as long as there would be no disputes between them.
"How is the situation of the disciples?" Ren Shuang asked Yin Long.
Yin Long smiled wryly and shook his head. "There is still some dissatisfaction among them. The disparity in strength between them created a rift that made the God Sword Region's disciples feel superior. If not for the top disciples of the Heavenly Sword Tower pacifying the matter, it would have blown out into a major conflict."
Ren Shuang furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing this troublesome matter. He had already expected this kind of situation to happen, but he was confident that the two sides would soon be friendly to each other. "Make sure that the elders would remain partial regarding the disputes between disciples. It would be more chaotic if the elders would also fight amongst themselves."
Yin Long nodded his head seriously.
"Is there anything else?" Ren Shuang asked when he saw that Yin Long was still there.
Yin Long cleared his throat and glanced at Ren Shuang as he slowly said. "I discussed things with Ka Wayan and Gu San earlier. We came up with a solution that might lessen the dissatisfaction among our disciples."
Ren Shuang looked a bit interested when he heard this. "Say it." He urged Yin Long to continue speaking.
"Uh, the three of us thought that it might be a good idea if a new division would be created. If the new division is established under the leadership of either the three of us old fellows, the old members of the God Sword Region would feel more at home. What do you think?" Yin Long stared at Ren Shuang nervously. Although the latter was weaker than him in terms of cultivation, the man was the reincarnation of their Sect Master.
Ren Shuang was silent for a moment. He pondered deeply after hearing the suggestion. It wasn't a bad idea in his opinion and it might lessen the tension between the two sides.
"Alright. I'll inform Miss Theia about this matter. It shouldn't be a problem since Miss Theia is quite flexible about sect matters. After she approves this, make sure to give me a detailed report about the division that you three old men are planning to create."
Yin Long was overjoyed upon hearing this. He adjusted his sitting position and said in excitement. "Actually, we have already thought about the name and the purpose of the division. We decided to call it the Ancient Sword Division. Its task is the handle new disciples and this division will also be responsible for the sect's missions. The Ancient Sword Division will be divided into two courts, the Outer Court and the Inner Court. The Outer Court would be the first destination of new disciples and the Inner Court is for the more talented ones. The disciples of..."
Yin Long eagerly discussed the plan that he had come up with Gu San and Ka Wayan. He didn't even realize that he had already spoken for more than an hour. He only stopped talking when he saw the annoyed look of Ren Shuang.
"Ah, this... Do I still have to give a report for this new division?" Yin Long scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. He was too excited earlier that he had almost forgotten about Ren Shuang's identity.
Ren Shuang smiled helplessly. "You three old fellows are truly something. You even came up with this idea in just a few days. With your presence, the Heavenly Sword Tower would soon become an unstoppable force."
Yin Long was slightly proud upon hearing the praise.
"Alright, go back and make the preparations for the establishment of the new division. I'll handle the discussion with Miss Theia." Ren Shuang dismissed Yin Long who left the room with a satisfied smile.
After Yin Long left, Ren Shuang also left the room to search for Theia. He had to discuss this matter with her immediately. The disagreements between the disciples was also a major concern to him so he wanted to solve it right away to prevent future troubles.
