"Hail your majesty."
Everyone greeted the Tian Ma ruler as he entered the room, where everyone was now gathering to discuss the arrangements ahead.
"Well, since everyone has gathered, we're just starting to talk about resetting some of the places we need to rebuild."
"Sorry before your majesty, what about the North?" Tian Zhao spoke out what had been going on for a few days in his mind.
"The North is from the east, but uncle has given it to your father, so the North is a city separate from the east."
Tian Zhao was astonished to hear the words of the Tian Ma ruler, as Tian Zhao was still speechless while digesting what the Tian Ma ruler said, the Tian Ma ruler said again, "Didn't Zhao'er know that Uncle is the older brother of your father?!"
Tian Zhao only shook his head like a fool, truly Tian Zhao never knew if the father was the younger brother of the ruler of the eastern city.
"Her father never told you his life story either! And does Zhao'er know that other than Zhao'er, your father still has two other daughters?!"
"Tian Zhao had heard that the father did have two daughters before Tian Zhao was born, only that Tian Zhao didn't know if they were alive or dead, either, not even the father knows how the fate of his two daughters is because the two daughters of the father have left the North city."
"The two daughters of your father are fine, even the two of them are in this room!" the ruler of Tian Ma.
Tian Zhao circulated his gaze around the room, paying attention to everyone present and sitting neatly while staring at him.
Tian Zhao's eyes locked onto Lien Hua and Yue Yin as there were only two girls in the room, Tian Zhao's gaze alternated between Lien Hua and Yue Yin. Tian Zhao nodded when he saw Lien Hua, but when he saw Yue Yin Tian Zhao felt doubtful, because Yue Yin did not look like an older sister but a little girl who might be the same age as her or might be younger than her.
Yue Yin did not accept the look of doubt from Tian Zhao, she immediately said, "Get your eyes brat, I am your eldest brother."
Tian Zhao was astonished to get a direct rebuke from a little girl before him, he turned his eyes to the Tian Ma ruler, but the Tian Ma ruler nodded his head in a sign that Yue Yin's words were indeed true.
"Don't you think I'm a little girl, my name is Yue Yin and I'm 19 years old, this is your second sister Lien Hua she's 14 years old. So from now on you should respect these two brothers of yours!" the first absolute order from Yue Yin as the first elder sister.
"Is that really uncle?"
"That's right, from now on don't feel alone because you still have two brothers and an uncle. Ah yes, you also have one cousin Tian Zhi."
Tian Zhi nodded as Tian Zhao looked at him, Tian Zhao's gaze hard to articulate, however, Tian Zhi and Tian Zhao had fought one-on-one, and Tian Zhao had to accept defeat for the first time.
"We are brothers, in the future there will be no more fight between us," said Tian Zhi.
In the end Tian Zhao was able to breathe with relief after hearing Tian Zhi's words, however Tian Zhao was afraid that Tian Zhi would attack him again, moreover, now Tian Zhao no longer has supporters because the father has been killed in the hands of a fox demon that he had always considered his own birth mother.
"Well, for the North, uncle leave it to the three of you because the North already belongs to your father."
"Yue Yin doesn't want to return to the Northern city, Yue Yin will stay with Grandpa Yu in the academy" Yue Yin said.
"Lien Hua also does not want to return to the North city, Lien Hua will return to live with Lien's grandmother in the flower village" said Lien Hua.
"If it had been Yin'er's decision and Hua'er's uncle would have agreed to it, then from that the Northern city became Zhao'er's responsibility, how? Do you all agree?"
"Lien Hua also agreed."
"Then Tian Zhao also agreed, only... Tian Zhao is too young to be a ruler."
"That's not a problem, uncle will assign envoy Jin Hui to help you become a city lord until Zhao'er grows up, but before that we have to make a peace agreement first. It is forbidden to take up arms between the Northern city and the eastern city."
"Tian Zhao agreed uncle."
The problem of the northern city has been resolved, now living rearrange the one in the eastern city.
"For the academy, let the junior students keep studying in the academy standing in the village wasted, in anticipation of things happening again like before!" the ruler of Tian Ma.
"I agree, but preferably at the eastern border should also be established a protective sect consisting of people who have attained fighting power!" said chief Guan Lao.
"Good idea, does anyone else have any other ideas?" ask the ruler of Tian Ma.
"What if we also set up sects in some places, for example in flower villages and in silent villages," said elder Ming Hao.
"It's also a good idea, alright from now on anyone can establish a sect in some places!" the ruler of Tian Ma.
The ruler of Tian Ma also granted privileges to the four young people who had contributed in the battle against the demon race, they would be given a place to establish their respective sect.
Guan Lien was given a place on the eastern border to establish his sect, Ming Shu was given a place in a deserted village to establish his sect, and the, Lien Hua was given a place in the flower village to establish his sect and Yue Yin was given a place on the border between the prosperous village and the wasted village to establish his sect. These four sects will stand under the auspices of the ruler of the eastern city.
Everyone agreed with the decision that had been made and agreed on together, now the ruler of Tian Ma arrived to announce it directly to all residents at the celebration.
*
The ruler of Tian Ma held a massive banquet, the entire citizens and everyone living in the residence of the city lord were free to enjoy the festivities held for one day and one night.
At night the ruler of Tian Ma announced the granting of privileges to the younger generation who had contributed a lot in the battle against the demon race.
Some awards were also Tian Ma rulers gave to anyone according to their respective performance. The ruler of Tian Ma also supported the families of the fighters who had died in the Battlefield.
*
In the Northern city a little girl opened her eyes, her gaze looking blank for a moment, some shadows flashed in her memory.
In her long sleep, the little girl was given an image of two red babies being exchanged in the dark, one of the babies being exchanged in her dream was herself, the other baby was a handsome boy.
In the darkness of the night, the exchange of babies was unbalanced, the baby boy was placed in a residence full of luxury and affection, while the baby girl is placed in front of the actual residence is not worthy of being called a residence but a hut.
Outside the pitch-black hut a baby girl was crying loudly from the cold, the wind coming straight through the thin cloth that the baby girl was wearing.
Until the baby girl's voice was almost gone, then someone came out of the hut and held her, someone gave warmth to the baby girl until the baby girl was asleep because she was exhausted.
