Chapter 401: Third Eye
Elysia Mystshroud had a wide grin as she walked the central street of Nightrose City. After the construction of the new castle in Ashfallen's name that occupied the center of the city where the Nightrose family's castle had stood for decades, and the populace accepted the change in their overlords, there had been a flood of new sign-ups to the cult of the All-Seeing Eye.
Some businessmen with good foresight had approached her with plans to construct grand places of worship for the All-Seeing Eye, and she happily approved them all despite the exorbitant proposed budgets.
She had a lot of money from selling the Ashfallen Sect's pills through the Eternal Pursuit Pavilion. While it was her money, she had dedicated her everything, including her body and soul, to the All-Seeing Eye, which included her funds.
If these places of worship helped the All-Seeing Eye even a little, she saw it worth it. After all, the more people who believed in her god, the stronger her powers became.
"Elder Elysia—"
"Don't call me that," Elysia glared over her shoulder at one of her family's Elders, who was adorning the black cloak of the All-Seeing Eye with the hood down, hiding his face. "I don't want to inherit that title. I have a greater purpose now than being one of the leaders in a mere cultivation family. Refer to me as the Vice Cult Leader."
"Understood, Vice Leader," the man gave a slight bow of apology.
"Speak. What do you seek my counsel for?"
"Around seventy percent of the city is now indoctrinated into the cult, but a large area to the north is still holding out under the leadership of a powerful mortal family."
