Imperial City Suburb.
A war that did not alarm the common folk erupted at the headquarters base of the Military Department.
The inaugural Military Department Director, Ning Zhenbang, colluded with members of the Hidden Sect, aiming to seize power and usurp the state. Deputy Director Qin Yanyang led a team to encircle him at the Military Department headquarters base, and a fierce battle ensued.
After Ning Zhenbang was seriously wounded and captured by Qin Yanyang, all his close followers were detained. Qin Yanyang personally oversaw the interrogation and screening of these individuals.
It took a full half-month. Under the high-priority attention and strong support from the higher-ups, Qin Yanyang led the team in cleansing the entire Military Department.
At the same time, drastic changes occurred among the high echelons of Divine Continent Country, with many high-ranking officials arrested. However, a very few managed to flee upon hearing the news, escaping abroad in advance.
