The first thing that the Nine Temples did after the unification of the Middle Realm was to crush all the other forces. No matter the size of the force, be it big or small, the Nine Temples annihilated them in one fell swoop, disregarding if they surrendered or not. Even those small forces had not been spared, let alone those hidden family clans that had been around since aged old times. Each and every single force had been uprooted by the Nine Temples!
After seizing the Middle Realm with such thunderous means, the next order issued by them was to ask the entire population to build over hundred palaces!
There were as many as one hundred and eight palaces to be built and the scale of each Palace was enormous. All the young and middle aged had been enlisted at that time as they started the never ending construction. The Nine Temples sent people to supervise them and if any semblance of laziness had been discovered, only death awaited.
