This confirmed James’ earlier suspicions about the Lord of the First Universe being the one who united all the universes. Now that man was known as the Omnipotent Lord of the First District.
Jacopo continued to explain, “The Omnipotent Lord led the fusion of the universes. After the merge, he divided the new universe into twelve districts according to the territory previously encompassed by each universe.
“Each district has a District Leader who manages the area. Meanwhile, the Omnipotent Lord became the Lord of this new universe and oversees all twelve districts.
“Initially, many Universe Lords opposed the Omnipotent Lord’s suggestion to merge the universes. However, he dealt with them ruthlessly and those who opposed him were brutally eliminated. After several Macrocosm Ancestral Gods died at his hands, no one else dared to go against him.”
Jacopo explained how the new universe came to be.
“In that case, who is the Twelfth District’s Leader?”
Jacopo said, “It’s someone sent from the First Universe. He has never shown himself in the First Universe before. This person is imposing, and it’s rumored he is a Nine-Power Macrocosm Ancestral God.”
“A Nine-Power Macrocosm Ancestral God?” James frowned.
‘Among the twelve universes, the Omnipotent Lord is supposed to be the only other Nine-Power Macrocosm Ancestral God. How did another Nine-Power Macrocosm Ancestral God arise after I was gone for only a few Epochs?’ wondered James.
His intuition told him that there was more to this than met the eye.
Jacopo looked at James worriedly and asked, “What should we do now, Dad? The Heavenly Court is our last haven. The Omnipotent Lord promised to only send a District Leader to govern our district and said that he wouldn’t interfere with other matters. Despite that, they’re currently trying to take over the Heavenly Court.”
James fell into thought.
After briefly contemplating, James suggested, “Since the Omnipotent Lord wants the position, then just give it to him for now.”
“For real?” Jacopo was slightly taken aback by his answer. The other powerhouses were also startled. It was unlike James to make such a decision.
His strength allowed him to ignore potential repercussions from the Omnipotent Lord and allowed him to stand his ground.
