"Will they... believe it?"
Gu Changfeng found it hard to comprehend.
"Why wouldn't they believe it."
Gu Jinlai said, "If they don't believe me, they would need to send at least two Divinity Transformation Realm Great Cultivators and an elite army no less than ten thousand strong to surround and kill us, in order to maintain Purgatory Sect's face. And if they do believe me... Two cities and a new Elder, how significant would that be to elevate Purgatory Sect's prestige?"
As for the effects of this prestige...
When Purgatory Sect launches a massive invasion of Star State in the future, the forces within Star State would surrender upon seeing their approach.
Even if they don't take control of Star State, the local forces would have to think thrice before opposing someone from Purgatory Sect.
Such implicit benefits are immeasurable.
