"It was obvious they did it because of the Heavenly Sword Chamber of Commerce."
Tang Xiao was no fool.
At such a crucial moment, cutting ties with the Clear Sky Sect had to be for the sake of the Heavenly Sword Chamber of Commerce.
Not long after those Soul Master factions went to Heavenly Sword City, letters arrived.
It was highly likely that they had reached some kind of agreement with the Heavenly Sword Chamber of Commerce.
"The Heavenly Sword Chamber of Commerce may be planning to use these Soul Master factions to suppress us, perhaps even force us into war."
"The situation is very unfavorable for us!"
"But the more it is like this, the more we must remain calm."
"We absolutely cannot fall for the Heavenly Sword Chamber of Commerce's scheme."
After Tang Xiao said this, the elders looked at one another.

Moreover, the Fifth Elder had gone to Heavenly Sword City under orders.
He represented the Clear Sky Sect.
