At this moment, in the Grandmaster Battlefield above the Imperial City, several Grandmaster from the Haotian Sect were dashing left and right, trying to escape.

Then they could go and support their sect leader, Duanmu Haotian.

Unfortunately, their attempts were thwarted each time, so they had no choice but to focus their efforts and fight with a clear mind.

Currently, there are eight Grandmaster belonging to the Haotian Sect on the Grandmaster Battlefield.

The Flowing Cloud Sect has six Grandmaster here, and the Star Moon Sect has seven Grandmaster.

These Grandmaster are currently engaged in a fierce battle.

Although they didn't understand why their sect leaders had suddenly started fighting.

However, the infighting among the three sects has been going on for a long time, so there's nothing strange about it. Since they've started fighting, let them fight.

This time, the Haotian Sect sent fifteen Grandmaster to Sky City, not counting the two Grandmaster had previously been lurking in Sky City.

The Flowing Cloud Sect and Star Moon Sect each sent ten Grandmaster, in addition to the three Grandmaster who had been specially left in Sky City.

Half of each of the three factions has entered the palace and is searching for the remaining members of the Great Qian Imperial Family.

As for the remaining half, they have now been divided into eight battle groups.

Three of the battle groups were one-on-one, while the remaining five battle groups consisted of Grandmaster from the Haotian Sect fighting one-on-two.

Therefore, apart from the five one-on-one battle groups, the Grandmaster of the Haotian Sect were already at a disadvantage from the very beginning in the remaining three battle groups.

Of course, this is not the most fatal thing. What worries the Grandmaster of Haotian Sect the most is their Sect Master.

The aura emanating from Duanmu Haotian indicated that he was in a very bad state and could be defeated at any moment.

If Duanmu Haotian is defeated, how will the Haotian Sect position itself?

It should be noted that Haotian Sect has always been extremely powerful in the face of the Flowing Cloud Sect and Star Moon Sect.

The main reason is that Duanmu Haotian's strength is such that if he were to face either Flowing Cloud Matriarch or Gongsun Haoyue alone, he would definitely be superior to them.

Furthermore, the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect have always been at odds, so they are not afraid of them joining forces.

Therefore, it has taken a strange long time for the three sects to reach a state of equilibrium.

This has resulted in disciples of the Haotian Sect having an innate sense of superiority over disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect.

Moreover, the Haotian Sect has always regarded itself as the overlord among the three sects.

However, Duanmu Haotian is now being besieged by Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue, with a Beast Emperor assisting in the attack.

This caused the Grandmaster of Haotian Sect, who was engaged in a chaotic battle below, to feel extremely worried.

If Duanmu Haotian were to be defeated as a result, it would be a devastating blow to the Haotian Sect.

That's why the Grandmaster of the Haotian Sect desperately tried to escape the battle so he could go and aid their sect leader.

However, despite the wonderful idea, they were still unable to escape the attacks of the Grandmaster of the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect.

Qi Shengyuan, who was on the city wall, saw that the battle between the three sects was in full swing. He then stopped paying attention to it and led his subordinates and a group of rogue martial artists to prepare to enter the palace.

However, just as they were about to enter the palace, disciples from the three sects were already guarding the entrance.

He said to Qi Shengyuan, "Go and see the other parts of the imperial city. The imperial palace has been taken over by the three sects."

It turned out that all the disciples from the three sects who remained in Sky City had arrived and surrounded the vast imperial palace.

They hadn't participated in any battles before; they came directly to the palace, but there were quite a few battles along the way.

Therefore, they only dared to come to the palace now and surround the entire palace.

Qi Shengyuan glanced helplessly at the magnificently decorated palace and had no choice but to turn around and head towards the homes of the royal family members inside the imperial city.

Without needing anyone's orders, Qi Shengyuan knew that the three sects intended to uproot the Great Qian Imperial Family.

As for the ongoing war between the three factions, it must be for the sake of future profit distribution, or to settle past grievances.

As for Kuang Qianzi, who arrived later, she was much more decisive. Seeing that the disciples of the three sects were already guarding the palace gate, she simply led her people away.

A fierce battle between Duanmu Haotian, Gongsun Haoyue, and Flowing Cloud Matriarch.

Finally, it attracted the attention of the three Grandmaster who had already entered the Imperial Palace.

Moreover, one of them was a Grandmaster from the Haotian Sect, who flew directly towards Jiang Liu, intending to kill Jiang Liu first.

Because if he kills Jiang Liu, it might cause the Beast Emperor to turn against him, who knows?

However, his beautiful plan cost him his life.

Now, the palace was in even greater chaos.

Grandmaster from the Flowing Cloud Sect had just emerged from a palace when he was besieged by two Grandmaster from the Clear Sky Sect.

There were also Grandmaster from the Haotian Sect who, after leaving the searched palace, were immediately besieged by three Grandmaster from the Star Moon Sect.

The most unlucky one Grandmaster from the Haotian Sect. He had just finished searching one place when he ran into four Grandmaster from the Flowing Cloud Sect around the corner.

Before the Grandmaster of Haotian Sect could react, the Grandmaster of the Flowing Cloud Sect launched a direct attack.

They stunned him completely, and before he could even ask a question, they launched a series of attacks, leaving him severely injured.

However, most of the Grandmaster in the palace fought one-on-one.

Only one or two Grandmaster from the Flowing Cloud Sect or the Star Moon Sect would step forward to help and attack the Grandmaster of the Clear Sky Sect together.

The Grandmaster inside the palace also aroused suspicion among the disciples of the three sects guarding the outside.

By the time they realized what was happening, both sides had already taken up positions and the melee had officially begun.

However, among these disciples, the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect did not unite.

Although they had sensed that the atmosphere between the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect seemed to have eased somewhat during this time.

However, the two sect leaders have not yet announced a formal alliance.

Therefore, they were unaware that the exchanges between those Grandmaster and elders had increased significantly.

Even so, the disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect tacitly refrained from fighting each other.

They also separately targeted the Haotian Sect, launching a campaign to annihilate its disciples.

This initial chaotic battle ignited complete disorder throughout Sky City.

Small factions and gangs have sprung up everywhere, taking advantage of the situation to plunder and steal valuables.

Some of the original Lineage forces in Sky City also boldly participated.

Gongyang Zhuang of the Confucian school also sensed the deaths of Jiang Zongquan and Dao Fan Shangren, but he dared not come out recklessly.

Moreover, he repeatedly restrained his Confucian disciples from participating in battles recklessly.

The fear is that they will be targeted by the three sects, because the Confucian school, the National Preceptor's Mansion, and the Great Qian Imperial Family previously joined forces to suppress the Jianghu world.

If the Confucian school is identified by the three sects as a force of the Great Qian Imperial Family, then the Confucian school might really be wiped out.

As a result, the Confucian school lost its last chance to divide up the benefits of Sky City.

Of course, it was precisely because of this that Confucianism was preserved.

Because if anyone dares to cause trouble in the entire Sky City while the three sects are at war, then when the three sects determine the victor, it will be time to settle scores later.
