Walker Of The Worlds

Emperor Feng's words echoed in the hall, etching themselves into the minds of all those that heard.

Never had the elders of the Morning Glory clan thought that they would get to enter the inner circle of the aristocrats. Not to mention, jump directly to the level of a dukedom!

This was a massive thing for them, as this meant they had a free hand to gather power. They could not only expand their domain, but also openly recruit people.

Ever since the Dao Wind Empire grew to its peak, there were some limitations on the clans and organizations that lived within it. They couldn't simply expand wantonly and gaining land was also not allowed directly.

One was allowed to live in uninhabited regions, but they still had to register it with the Administrative offices when they were making an organization or a full scale clan.

Plus, there were limitations on how they could recruit people into their fold.

For Clans, they could only recruit people through marriage or through servitude. They couldn't just accept 'disciples' from the outside. They had to keep it limited to familiar relations and blood kin.

As for other organizations that weren't bound by blood but rather by work or goals, were allowed a bit more freedom in recruitment. But they also had to report more often to the administration.

They had to give details about who the people they recruited were as well as their origin and more.

This kept a certain level of security in the entire empire and kept it stable. Not to mention, it actually made the administrative functioning of the empire smooth. There was a reason why the Dao Wind Empire had managed to rise this far.

It was mostly due to their administrative policies and the staff that worked in it. The Emperor was also particular about the work that nobles should do, and as such limited who was granted a title and position.

Duke was the highest noble title one could get other than the Emperor himself.

And in the entire Dao Wind Empire there were only two such dukes. But now a third duke had been added and the dukedom shall be formed.

The other two Dukedoms belonged to those who had helped the Dao Wind Empire to rise in power and take over the entire continent. As such yet had been granted dukedom and the tweeter quite close to the imperial family as well.

In fact, two of the Emperor's wives were from the two dukedoms. Even Crown Prince Feng Shun's mother was from one such dukedom.

Thus the relations between the imperial family and the two dukedoms was quite close. And now that the third dukedom had been added, it was very close too. Not only was the Morning Glory clan a close ally due to being their supplier of alchemical pills, now that Meihua had become a celestial's disciple it had to be kept even closer.
