Huang Tianming has been quite upset lately. Ever since he was crushed by Chen Guan, although the Red Blood Corps has not forcibly attacked his Southern Heavenly Kingdom, most of the nearby kingdoms have submitted to the Red Blood Corps.
The Southern Heavenly Kingdom's situation is now very awkward. If they don't submit to the Red Blood Corps, nearly all their neighbors are allied with the Red Blood Corps, severely restricting the Southern Heavenly Kingdom's business dealings with them.
Additionally, members of the Red Blood Corps, capable of countering his Skyfall Hammer, often come with troops to cause him trouble.
If he were to submit, Huang Tianming, the Overlord of the South, simply couldn't swallow his pride.
Drinking in sorrow only adds to one's worries. Huang Tianming drank cup after cup alone, without even the slightest interest in the woman he most adored cosying up to him, and directly chased her away.
