Much like the Changlong Business Alliance, the Prime Minister's Mansion controlled nearly sixty percent of the entire Great Xia's economic lifelines. But after the Celestial Secret Pavilion emerged, it seemed no secret or piece of information could remain hidden.
Many speculated that the Celestial Secret Pavilion's existence was meant to undermine and replace the Great Xia's Observatory.
The Observatory was responsible for monitoring the realm, collecting all manner of intelligence and secrets, and overseeing the activities of the Immortal Sects in every region.
However, the Observatory answered only to the Royal Family, and its intelligence was never disseminated to the public.
The Celestial Secret Pavilion's existence essentially meant taking the Observatory's internal intelligence, making it public, and keeping it under its own control.
