The Tranquil Sky Sect was already at the point of no return.
Outside the main gate of the Tranquil Sky Sect, Zhao Hetu's face was gloomy. Behind him were not only the cultivators of the Zhao Family, but also the cultivators of the Li Family. The Second Elder of the Li Family was standing right beside him.
He had no other choice. After all, the other party was from the Mayor's family, and the Zhao Family of the Southern City was one of the Four Great Clans of the Liu-Li City. They could not fight against them, otherwise, the Zhao Family would not guard the least wealthy family in the Southern City.
Cheng Qing and Zhao E Mei had indeed been at the Cloud Mist Mountain for a long time.
A month passed, but Zhao Hetu did not feel anything.
Two months later, Zhao Hetu became anxious.
By the time three months had passed, Zhao Hetu was already impatient.
By the time the fourth month had passed, Zhao Hetu had basically determined that Cheng Qing and Zhao E Mei had died in the secret realm.
Half a year later, Zhao Hetu was certain that Cheng Qing and Zhao E Mei were dead.
From that moment on, Zhao Hetu lost his friendship as an alliance with the An Tian Sect.
The reconciliation between the Zhao Family and the An Heaven Sect had been temporary. It had been built on the foundation that Cheng Qing and Zhao E had entered the secret realm together, hoping that the Zhao Family would reap some benefits from the secret realm. Otherwise, how could the Zhao Family possibly tolerate the rise of the An Tian Sect in the Southern City?
It would have been fine if there was only one Cheng Qing, but there were still two cultivators in the sect that he was afraid of, Lin Xin and Li Muhao. Lin An was already at the seventh level of the Nazi realm, and Li Muhao had even reached the eighth level of the Nazi realm. How could Zhao Hetu tolerate a force like this that was already more threatening to the Zhao Family than any family in the Southern City?
If it weren't for the fact that the Zhao Family had secretly followed Cheng Qing and Zhao E and witnessed them enter the secret realm with their own eyes, and that there hadn't been any activity within the secret realm during the past few days, unlike the fact that the secret realm had been destroyed, Zhao He Tu still had a sliver of hope that the sect would've taken action against the Tranquil Sky Sect a long time ago.
Now that a year had passed, it was almost impossible to realize his extravagant hopes. No matter how patient and shrewd Zhao Hetu was, he had no choice but to accept the fact that Cheng Qing and Zhao E Mei had died in the secret realm.
The reason why the Li Family's cultivators had not left the secret realm was because Cheng Qing and Zhao E Mei were in trouble. Perhaps they had provoked some powerful existence within the secret realm, causing the Li Family's cultivators to be caught in the crossfire.
Zhao Hetu knew very well that the purpose of this kind of false accusation was only to find someone to take the blame for it.
The Li family's cultivators had died in the secret realm. This was a very serious loss to the Li family. As the Mayor's family, they were not willing to let the losses go to waste. Therefore, they had to find someone to take responsibility for the losses.
Asking the Zhao Family to compensate for their money and magic tools, as well as to incorporate the An Tian Sect into the Li family, was the way the Li family could make up for the losses.
This was very unreasonable, but in Glazed City, the Li Family did not need to be reasonable, and their words were the greatest truth.
Zhao Hetu felt aggrieved, but there was nothing he could do about it. After all, she had indeed entered the secret realm. The Lee family seized on this truth.
The Li Clan made it very clear that the An Tian Sect had to be incorporated into the Li Clan, while Lin Xin and Li Muhao, as Cheng Qing's trusted aides, had to die.
Zhao Hetu could only follow the Lee family's orders. However, he was happy to see the An Tian Sect wiped out from the southern part of the city.
