Duke had previously learned from Robert that slightly farther from Azure Vault City, the Light Sect's faith was no longer spreading.
Those areas are controlled by the Four Gods Sect, and even the followers of the secretive Shadow Council might outnumber those of the Light Sect.
This can't continue; he still needs to rely on the Power of Faith to develop the Light God Court.
The fewer the believers, the lesser the Power of Faith.
In the room, several people deliberated for over an hour.
Finally, Bishop Ambrose looked at the three young people before him and remained silent for a long time.
His gaze moved from Duke to Dali, from Dali to Henry, and lastly back to Duke.
Those light gray eyes held an indescribable emotion.
Like watching a river change its course, knowing he couldn't stop it, only able to watch it flow to the unknown distance.
"Alright." Bishop Ambrose's voice was hoarse, "Do as you say. The Light Sect cannot retreat any further."
