Chapter 1585: My Sword Is Law
Sang Mei didn't return to the residence with Ye Guan, as she wanted to go on a stroll.
Ye Guan naturally wasn't worried about her safety. This woman was undoubtedly very powerful. Of course, he had no idea just how powerful she was.
What gave him a bit of a headache was that Sang Mei had borrowed a ton of True Spirit Crystals from him. After returning to the residence, Ye Guan picked up a book concerning the divine laws and started reading..
The divine laws were passed down from the Divine Will, and it was the core of the Temple of the Gods. Back then, each temple strictly adhered to it, but over time, as the temples expanded and grew stronger, the enforcement of the divine laws eventually became lax.
Ye Guan understood the reason behind it. He had read a lot of ancient history and knew that whenever a new order was established, the early phase would always emphasize law and justice.
The officials under the new order would initially be honest and upright. Given enough time, however, they would become corrupt and trample on the law to seize profits for themselves.
Ye Guan realized that it was a Dao as well, and a natural constant.

Ye Guan withdrew from his thoughts and looked at Nan Xiao. Judging from his expression, he had a guess and asked, "Brother Nan, that token earlier, what was it?"
