The grudge between both sides could be traced back to when Ye Xiwen won the Lineage Martial Competition Tournament. After obtaining the Nine Revolutions Profound Golden Pill, Ye Xiwen became the target of both the Golden Crown Prince and the Jade Crown Prince.
And it was not just the Golden Crown Prince and the Jade Crown Prince. Even within the First Secret Realm, quite a few people coveted the Nine Revolutions Profound Golden Pill.
