Chapter 521 - 517: Holy Dynasty’s Position
Gu Jinlai immediately started a major rectification operation on Hai Feng City.
Concerning this matter, the Imperial Family had already tacitly agreed at a time when Si Xinghui had been arrested and Duanmu Yufeng among others had not yet established a new City Lord.
They tacitly allowed him to do as he pleased in Hai Feng City.
Even if he plundered all the resources and wealth of Hai Feng City, they deemed it worthwhile.
After all, what Gu Jinlai had done in Wind and Rain City...
Was comparatively more upright.
Next, if they wanted to tarnish his reputation and reduce his influence, it was difficult to find a starting point.
If he really plundered extensively in Hai Feng City, first, it could prove that Gu Jinlai was not a noble person either—everyone was more or less the same.
Second, it would give them grounds to deal with him in the future.
Because of this reasoning, Duanmu Yufeng, Duanmu Yao, and others made no arrangements for Hai Feng City, Liuhuo City, and Purple Thunder City, and went straight back to the Holy Dynasty Capital.
