One week later;
Imperial City, Leon Empire;
Three Supreme realm experts, the leaders of Iron Thunder Sect, Celestial Crane Sect, and Scarlet Lotus Sect, gathered at the imperial palace on the Emperor's invitation.
These three sects stand on top of the cultivation world, within the borders of the Leon Empire. They were also considered top 5 in the whole continent, and the Scarlet Lotus Sect was even in the top 10 in the entire world.
For ages, sects have stayed away from matters of the material world. Whether the Leon Empire collapses or not has nothing to do with them. And if they used their strength to meddle in the affairs of the empire, the other sects would combine their strength to wipe out the sect that broke the rules.
They intended to stay away this time, too, but the fact that demons were involved in this mess forced these righteous sects to come to Emperor Shi's aid.
