Compared to Ling Tian, Chi Xue felt a deep sense of "Why was Yu born when Liang already existed?" Whether in strength or strategy, he was slightly inferior. The fact that he had never once gained an advantage over Ling Tian made that plain enough. Recently, he had discovered another area where he fell short: his influence within his sect.
Although he had already become the Mo Family's future Patriarch, his standing in the Mo Family was far below Ling Tian's standing in Lingxiao Pavilion and Fengyun Pavilion. Ling Tian could even dictate the direction of both sects. The cultivators from Fengyun Pavilion and Lingxiao Pavilion had decisively withdrawn from Beast Soul Valley, which was proof enough.
In ordinary times, standing and influence within a sect were not especially important. But at a crucial moment, they mattered greatly. Take the situation now: countless cultivators had poured into Beast Soul Valley. As expected, countless of them would perish, and they would still fail to capture the Phoenix Soul Fruit. This would deal a heavy blow to their sects.
If Chi Xue had absolute authority in the Mo Family, he would have strictly forbidden its members from entering Beast Soul Valley. Then the Mo Family would not have lost several Quasi-Saint experts, nor would they have clashed with other powerful forces and been forced to send even more people into the valley. As a result, the forces guarding their sect had been greatly weakened.
In this regard, Chi Xue was far inferior to Ling Tian. The fact that not a single person from Fengyun Pavilion or Soul Severing Cliff had fallen was the best proof.
Of course, Chi Xue did not care much about the Mo Family's fallen experts. In his heart, anyone who "wouldn't listen" deserved to be cast aside. But
