There were nine lackeys in all, plus Destroy Chen Hall. It looked like he'd have his hands full for a while.

From the looks of it, Destroy Chen Hall was very powerful. The Heavenly Heart Clan, on the other hand, could only dominate this region and nothing more. That didn't seem like enough to draw Destroy Chen Hall's attention.
