Chapter 1009 - Retreat in Fear
The Warring Nation, Heavenly Goldenrain Nation, and the other forces had left indignantly after Huang Wuji revealed his identity.
They had hoped to fish in troubled waters; instead, they were forced to back down.
Although they failed to get what they wanted, they hadn’t suffered any losses—unlike Lei Dongtian.
Lei Dongtian’s eyes also flickered upon hearing Huang Wuji, surprised by the identity of Chen Fan’s group.
If he had known Zhuge Mingyue had joined the Peerless Peak, he likely would not have made such a decision.
But now, not only had they gained nothing, they had suffered catastrophic losses.
So many Legendary realm experts had fallen. The fallout in the Sun Moon Divine Sect would be immense. And as the Heavenly Lightning Hall’s hall master, the burden of responsibility would fall squarely on his shoulders.
Thinking of this, killing intent flashed in Lei Dongtian’s eyes.
“What about you, Lei Dongtian? Do you still wish to continue?” Zhuge Qingfeng smiled, looking at Lei Dongtian. Although he was heavily injured, he could still fight. His condition was not as bad as Lei Dongtian's.
Furthermore, with Prince Dawu and the others withdrawing, the rebellion led by Prince Jing and his faction had essentially collapsed.
The remaining princes and imperial uncles who had chosen neutrality would now clearly see which side to stand on.
