The Mo Xue Empire quickly regained its peace. Currently located in the distant territory of the Bloodshed God Palace, Xue Ying was paying close notice to any developments there. He even took the initiative to express his gratitude as soon as he heard that the various neighboring empires had retreated, to which the leaders of those empires politely replied with, "Had we known that Monarch Mo Xue had some ties with Your Highness, we would not have acted in the first place," or "The empire's territory is not of much importance to us anyway."

They had all been very cordial.

Xue Ying did not blame them for how they had acted beforehand either. He was well aware of how cruel the world of cultivation truly was. Once the wall fell, the crowd would come pushing through. Without any friendly relations, why would they help Mo Xue?
