They had originally thought that once the imperial cities of all servers had been destroyed, the Demon Army invasion would be over, and Misty Pavilion could then focus on taking action against the Dongfang Family and other Guild Alliances. However, San Mei Shi analyzed that the Demon Army might not necessarily be finished afterward, and she gave a sufficient reason—the Demon Army still occupied the imperial cities of the Major Servers. Until all those imperial cities had been retaken, the Demon Army invasion could not be considered truly over.
Yan Hua Yi Leng agreed with this analysis as well, but she believed it would not take long to retake all the imperial cities. Once that happened, the Demon Army invasion would naturally come to an end.
"Mm, that makes sense." Breaking Waves Riding Wind said, then chuckled as she thought of something. "Although the Demon Army occupies the imperial cities of the Major Servers, it is not that big a deal to us. After all, if we do not act according to your plan, Yan Hua, no one will be able to retake the imperial cities anytime soon. Since that is the case, we can ignore the occupied imperial cities for now and deal with the Dongfang Family and other Guild Alliances first. Heh, after we completely eliminate them, we can discuss retaking the imperial cities with the other guilds and even the other servers. That will give us a better chance of occupying the imperial cities. At the very least, we will not have to worry about sharing part of the authority over them with the Dongfang Family and other Guild Alliances."
"In other words, once all the remaining imperial cities are destroyed today, we can move against the Dongfang Family and other Guild Alliances." Breaking Waves Riding Wind
