After considering it, Zhang Yu thought that if the six Archons truly intended to deal with the three great powers of the Vast Yang Sect, those three would certainly not sit still and await death. There would likely be no small upheaval. Yet the affairs of the Upper Layer powers were beyond the Profound Court's ability to interfere with now; they could only wait for the outcome from above.
Chief Archon Chen said, "Regarding all matters concerning Origin Xia, in accordance with our agreement, I have already informed our fellow cultivators of the Nether Riding Sect. They will advance and retreat alongside us, and they will cooperate with all our actions."
Zhang Yu knew this mainly referred to his agreement in name with Origin Xia. Such a matter naturally had to be communicated to their allies; otherwise, the Nether Riding Sect might develop certain misgivings about Celestial Xia's subsequent actions.
There was no need to worry that the Nether Riding Sect would leak the matter. Most members of that sect cared little for affairs outside, and only Shan and Bi knew of it. Moreover, they had the oath document as proof, binding both sides. Should the oath be broken, Celestial Xia would sense it and respond accordingly.
Besides, for a reclusive sect like the Nether Riding Sect, unless it concerned life and death as it did this time, they had always believed that fewer troubles were better than more. They would never take the initiative to do anything superfluous or unnecessary.
Archon Wu said in a grave voice, "I have examined the fort platform Archon Zhang mentioned. A mere formation artifact can connect two realms and transmit messages. Though it may still rely upon a treasure that stabilizes the Dao, the threat it poses to us is simply too great.
