ng Zhang himself is a Sect Master, and Taiyi
ng Zhang himself is a Sect Master, and Taiyi Sect is also a righteous sect that pays attention to its reputation.
ng Zhang is well aware of the way righteous sects conduct themselves.
During peaceful tis without major incidents, they can display their generosity, benevolence, and strive to gain a good reputation.
However, when facing great benefits or serious events, practical interests should be considered.
A good reputation is rely embellishnt; real benefits are what truly matter.
Dali Dynasty spread these rumors in the hope that Purple Yang Holy Sect would be concerned about its reputation and stop putting pressure on them.
If ng Zhang were the Sect Master of Purple Yang Holy Sect, he would not be restricted by such tactics.
Reputation ans nothing when it cos to eliminating a major enemy.
A damaged reputation can be restored over ti, but giving the enemy a chance to catch their breath will hinder significant matters.
Moreover, with the strength of Holy Land Sect, who dares to openly criticize them?
Seeing from their perspective, ng Zhang doesn't think much of Dali Dynasty's actions.
If Purple Yang Holy Sect refuses to let Dali Dynasty go and Jiuqu League is not willing to cease hostilities, then if the Extraterritorial Invaders co, Taiyi Sect can only defend its own territory.
Regarding the overall situation, ng Zhang has no power to intervene.
Of course, if the Extraterritorial Invaders do co, the current Barbarian Clan army in front of them must be dealt with quickly, so as not to continue to hold back Taiyi Sect's main forces.
During the following ti, while practicing, ng Zhang mainly focuses on two things.
One thing is to continue paying attention to the outco of the negotiations between Jiuqu League and Dali Dynasty.
The other thing is to carefully observe the current Barbarian Clan army camp to see if there are any loopholes to exploit.
On the side of the Dali Dynasty's North Sweeping Grand Army, although they did not receive the desired response, General Zhang Wei did not stop his actions.
He publicly stated that although Dali Dynasty and Jiuqu League had so minor differences, they were all Human Clan Cultivators and should unite to defend against external enemies.
The Dali Dynasty's North Sweeping Grand Army voluntarily halted their attacks on the Yellow Lotus Sacred Mountain frontline and even withdrew a bit, creating a safe distance.
With the initiative in the hands of the North Sweeping Grand Army, they can co and go as they please.
For Jiuqu League, which was originally struggling, the enemy's voluntary retreat was undoubtedly a wish co true.
Xiao Jiansheng was very dissatisfied with this situation and wanted to order the cultivators stationed on the defense line to pursue the enemy actively.
For those who had barely escaped with their lives, let alone chasing the enemy, they were reluctant to continue to hold the defense line.
Especially the reinforcents from the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle, they were only dispatched to support Jiuqu League because White Sun Valley wanted to please Purple Yang Holy Sect.
After suffering heavy casualties from the Dali Dynasty's North Sweeping Grand Army, they had had enough and had no intention of pursuing the enemy.
Xiao Jiansheng's orders caused a large-scale riot, almost leading to mutiny.
It was only with the efforts of True Monarch Bai Zhengyu that these people were appeased, but there was no hope of continuing the battle.
Almost everyone around the Yellow Lotus Sacred Mountain was tired of war and unwilling to continue fighting. Xiao Jiansheng seed to be the only one who still wanted to fight against Dali Dynasty.
With almost no support from anyone, his will seed inconsequential.
Xiao Jiansheng had already reported the situation here back to his sect, but so far, the higher-ups had not responded.
Xiao Jiansheng's thoughts were very similar to ng Zhang's.
Purple Yang Holy Sect was currently facing the choice between reputation and actual benefits.
Xiao Jiansheng himself leaned towards choosing actual benefits and prioritizing the elimination of Dali Dynasty.
After thinking about it for so ti, he had also co to understand so things.
Even if the Extraterritorial Demons and Spirit Clan invaded Grand Dust World on a large scale, at most, it would only affect Jiuqu League and its surrounding areas.Only the remote and backward regions of Grand Dust World have fallen, and Purple Yang Holy Sect will not suffer any substantial damage. At most, they will lose face and reputation.
After eliminating Dali Dynasty, Purple Yang Holy Sect can slowly deal with those Extraterritorial Invaders.
Throughout the history of Grand Dust World, there have been nurous invasions from the extraterritorial beings. However, each ti, the Human Clan Cultivators erged victorious.
Xiao Jiansheng's biggest concern is that the old-tirs in the sect place too much importance on the sect's reputation, and they might be manipulated by Dali Dynasty due to this concern.
There are also so high-ranking mbers of the sect who are used to being flattered and see themselves as saviors who must take on thankless tasks.
Xiao Jiansheng is far away in Jiuqu League and cannot interfere with the decisions within the sect.
Although he has included his own opinions in the reports sent back to the sect, he has no assurance whether the higher-ups will accept them or not.
For the ti being, peace has been restored on the frontline of Yellow Lotus Sacred Mountain, and everyone in Jiuqu League, including the Sword Cultivators from Jade Sword Sect, has breathed a sigh of relief.
The so-called sword maniacs who fear neither life nor death are not truly crazy, nor are they truly fearless of death.
When facing weak enemies, they can display their madness and fearlessness.
But when facing the Dali Dynasty's North Sweeping Grand Army, their usual tactics are of little use against the resolute North Sweeping Grand Army.
Now that peace has been restored to the frontline of Yellow Lotus Sacred Mountain, the various cultivation forces recruited by Jade Sword Sect in Jiuqu League are finding various excuses to leave the frontline and return to their sects.
So claim that their injuries are too severe and need imdiate treatnt; so are worried about their sect's safety and need to return to check on it; so have territories troubled by demon beasts and bandits that need to be quickly pacified...
Faced with all kinds of strange excuses and requests, the high-ranking mbers of Jade Sword Sect are also getting impatient.
In fact, so mbers of the high-ranking Jade Sword Sect have long proposed to withdraw so of the Jade Sword Sect cultivators and strengthen their defense to guard against the arrival of the Extraterritorial Invaders.
Jade Sword True Monarch also understands the principle of being lenient rather than strict. Ignoring Xiao Jiansheng's opposition, he disbanded a large part of the Jiuqu League cultivators and sent them back to their respective sects.
Before disbanding these cultivators, Jade Sword True Monarch had made it clear that they were only returning to recuperate or deal with personal matters.
If the frontline conflict reignites, Jade Sword Sect will summon them again, and they must imdiately rush to the frontline to join the battle.
Not only the Jiuqu League cultivators but also many cultivators among the reinforcents from the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle are clamoring to return.
Xiao Jiansheng tried to pressure and entice True Monarch Bai Zhengyu of White Sun Valley, offering many benefits.
Bai Zhengyu, as a True Monarch from a major sect, finally managed to subdue those cultivators and make them obedient.
While the frontline of Yellow Lotus Sacred Mountain was in turmoil, Xiao Jiansheng had been waiting anxiously for the sect's new orders, but they had not arrived, which made him increasingly impatient.
