Among these rumors, quite a few were real incidents known to everyone, even exposed by disciples within hegemonic forces. Yet a large portion was also groundless speculation based on the personalities of the Alliance High Level.
Whether the news was true or false, even the leaders of first-rate forces who knew more of the "inside story" felt that it made some sense. For instance, Xue Luo had never gotten along with Jin Wuya and had accumulated all manner of grudges with him... Your spar with Jin Wuya had also been portrayed as the prelude to war, after which the situation grew even more tense.
This was the most widely circulated rumor, and also the factor that every faction believed most likely to trigger a war. Beyond that, two other theories spread far and wide: the "Southern Border Internal Strife Theory" and the "Jin Wuya Is Petty Theory."
The former was considered reasonably well-founded. It claimed that the ownership of the Glazed Golden Sand mine had made Li Yixian feel the balance between the two forces had been lost. To restore it, Li Yixian had not hesitated to invite the wolf into the house, borrowing Jin Wuya's power to suppress Tianji Pavilion. He would rather sacrifice his own interests than allow Tianji Pavilion to grow stronger—a thousand wounds to the enemy at the cost of eight hundred to himself.
The latter claimed that Jin Wuya was an exceptionally petty dragon, listing dozens of examples of his pettiness and favoritism toward his own. It painted Jin Wuya as a dragon of abominable temperament, utterly indifferent to the lives of any living beings outside Spirit Palace disciples, and spread the claim that after losing to you, Jin Wuya had found it too humiliating and wanted to take revenge through this.
Other than that
