The Purple Cloud jade wings were a sacred sect's Secret treasure, so it was difficult to catch up with them. Now that the Great Demon King had a Shadow Stone in his hand that recorded their actions, they had no choice but to take a step back, or their reputation would be ruined.
"Let's catch up with him first. We don't have to fight for real. As long as the Great Demon King leaves, we'll return to the sect." The eastern immortal sect and Southern pill Palace immediately came to an agreement and steered the spirit boat towards the heavenly Devil Palace.
They were just putting on an act and had no intention of directly starting a war with the heavenly Devil Palace.
Because if that happened, the situation would go out of control.
After all, there were only around sixty half-step Foundation cultivators among them. Against the fifty or so cultivators from Heavenly Devil Palace, they didn't have any advantage.
