When the Fire-Winged Monkey saw the two of them come out, it looked at them nervously.

It noticed that neither of them seemed particularly nervous, and then it sat down cross-legged to meditate.

So it also sat cross-legged to the side and began to regulate its breathing.

When Flowing Cloud Matriarch and Gongsun Haoyue saw the Fire-Winged Monkey's actions, they were greatly surprised.

This monkey is really becoming more and more human-like!

When I watched it fight before, it felt like it was becoming more and more like a human.

I never expected it to even know how to regulate its breathing and circulate its energy. If it continues to grow, won't it be incredible?

Now, they began to envy Jiang Liu.

What a lucky kid! He managed to tame such an incredible monkey.

As Jiang Liu began to heal his wounds, the chaos in the imperial city also began to subside.

The Grandmaster of the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect have already begun to clean up the mess.

Led by the Grandmaster of the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect who remained in Tian Province, a series of orders were issued, which were then carried out by the Grandmaster from the Sects.

After all, their sect leader had previously instructed that if the sect leader could not issue orders, the resident elders of each state would take over.

Therefore, the elders stationed in Tian Province have begun to exercise the authority of the sect leader and issue orders to the Grandmaster elders.

Then, a thorough investigation began into the small gangs, minor factions, and Lineage that had previously taken advantage of the chaos in Sky City and Huangcheng to carry out arson, murder, and looting within Tian Province.

The Flowing Cloud Sect and Star Moon Sect each dispatched their Grandmaster and disciples to conduct a city-wide search and arrest operation against them, which gradually spread throughout Tian Province.

Those forces and Lineage that have acquired a great deal of wealth and resources during this chaos and are still gloating over it.

It wasn't until the Grandmaster of the two sects led their respective Sects to begin a city-wide manhunt for them that they began to regret their actions.

That's when I realized that the advantages of the three schemes weren't so easy to come by.

Unfortunately, by then it was too late for them to realize this. Once the people from the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect captured them, they killed them on the spot as long as the evidence was conclusive.

As for whether any of them were wrongly accused, even if they were, they can only accept their bad luck, since their Lineage or forces were involved.

The various forces that came to participate in the battle, such as the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect, each had their own set of reward methods.

Qi Shengyuan and Kuang Qianzi, along with their subordinates and the rogue cultivators, voluntarily handed over the wealth and resources they had seized.

As for whether they pocketed the money, only they themselves know.

However, if they are found out, the consequences will be more serious than they imagine.

This is the domineering nature of the three sects: if you contribute, you will naturally be rewarded.

However, the amount of the reward is entirely up to the three sects.

These are the three sects, their authoritarian rule over the entire Jianghu arts world.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the three sects seem to be indifferent to the struggles between Jianghu factions.

That's because they act within the rules established by the three sects.

You are free to do whatever you want, but if you break the rules, the three sects will deal with you without any mercy.

This is what the three sects discovered after the Great Qian Imperial Family secretly harbored a martial artist with the strength of Peak Grandmaster.

They immediately organized and launched an operation targeting the reasons behind the plan to exterminate the Great Qian Imperial Family.

If the Great Qian Imperial Family can secretly harbor a martial artist with the strength of a Peak Grandmaster, then it means they can harbor many more.

Therefore, the only way to eliminate future troubles is to take drastic measures and eradicate them directly.

Previously, the three factions needed the Great Qian Imperial Family to act as a mediator in their conflicts.

Now that signs of the Great Qian Imperial Family becoming uncontrollable have been discovered, the only option is to replace them.

However, the person who initiated this plan was Duanmu Haotian.

He never imagined that this battle would cost him his life.

And it was through this battle that the history of the three sects ruling the Great Qian Dynasty officially came to an end.

Now that the Haotian Sect no longer has Peak Grandmaster, its decline is already a foregone conclusion.

Next came the era when the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect ruled the Great Qian Continent.

Moreover, relations between the two parties have begun to ease.

As for whether there is a possibility of integration, we'll have to wait and see how things develop.

Before long, the results of the battle in Tian Province spread rapidly to all the states.

When the forces in each state heard this news, they were all taken aback.

They never expected the outcome of this battle to be like this.

Not only did they wipe out the Great Qian Imperial Family, but the Haotian Sect was also crippled in this battle.

When the news reached the Haotian Sect in Qian Province, the entire sect was immediately in an uproar.

However, before the Grandmaster who remained inside the Haotian Sects could react, the Grandmaster from the Flowing Cloud Sect and Star Moon Sect arrived together.

It turns out that before the news was officially released, the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect had already secretly leaked the information.

Instructions were issued to the Grandmaster stationed in each state and Grandmaster remaining at their respective Sects, ordering them to stop the Haotian Sect members from escaping.

Previously, the Grandmaster who remained in the Haotian Sect was greater than those in the Flowing Cloud Sect and Star Moon Sect.

However, in this battle for the imperial city, Duanmu Haotian sent out more Grandmaster than the other two sects.

So when the Grandmaster of the Flowing Cloud Sect and Star Moon Sect arrived at Haotian Sect Mountain Range.

The three Grandmaster who remained in the Haotian Sect mountain range were besieged by seven Grandmaster from the Flowing Cloud Sect and Star Moon Sect.

Within the Haotian Sect mountain range, three Grandmaster battle groups erupted not long afterward.

Half an hour after the battle broke out, all three Grandmaster who remained at Haotian Sect surrendered.

The Grandmaster of the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect also knew that only their sect leader had the authority to decide whether these Grandmaster stayed or left.

Their sect leader hasn't made a decision yet, so everyone in the Haotian Sect has been temporarily imprisoned.

As for the Haotian Sect disciples who had already escaped, the Flowing Cloud Sect and Star Moon Sect also issued letters of surrender, urging them to surrender as soon as possible.

It's unclear whether it's a tradition of the Haotian Sect, but all of the sect's True Inheritor Disciple are out training and not staying at the sect gate.

However, a message has been issued asking them to surrender voluntarily within the specified period. After two assessments, their treatment will remain the same.

Most of the Grandmaster stationed in various states of the Haotian Sect also chose to surrender after being persuaded by the Grandmaster of the Flowing Cloud Sect and Star Moon Sect.

Only the two Grandmaster stationed in Li Province and Zhen Province fled.

Many of the Grandmaster stationed at Haotian Sect in various prefectures of Qian Province surrendered voluntarily.

After all, the Grandmaster who fought in Tian Province before were able to keep their lives.

As for those who refused to surrender, they also chose to surrender after a battle.

After all, there are more than forty Grandmaster in the entire Haotian Sect.

The Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect can't possibly just kill them all like that!

Perhaps it could be merged into the Flowing Cloud Sect or the Star Moon Sect, who knows?

Therefore, the Grandmaster of Haotian Sect who surrendered was still full of hope that he could keep his life.
