Xiao Qianjue's message contained more than that. He also claimed that the Myriad Dharma Alliance had set its sights on Ying Wuji.
This was because Wu Yousheng had obtained a "Divine Movement Platform" in White Cloud City, and that platform was believed to be of tremendous consequence.
However, Xiao Qianjue had failed to uncover exactly what consequence it held. This matter was likely known only to the upper echelons of the Myriad Dharma Alliance.
"The current Myriad Dharma Alliance... is no more than Purple Armor Hall, Curse Sword Sect, and Ghost Cry Sect among the Nine Evils of Longevity. They can hardly be considered formidable anymore. None of these factions currently have any truly powerful figures. Other than Jiang Lingxu, who has cultivated Manifestation, there are no other notable experts."
Compared to forces such as the Three Primordial Dao Gates and the Buddhist sects, these factions of the Nine Evils of Longevity were all latecomers. They could not compare to the colossal powers and holy lands of Daoism and Buddhism; even the Dragon Worship Sect and Mud Sect, fellow members of the Nine Evils, surpassed them.

After explaining the matter to Great Sage Lieyun, He Ping resolved to leave Vast Cliff
