Just from this aspect alone, Taiping Dao cannot assign the defense of the Formation Core in the Great Eye Kingdom entirely to Jintai Gate—it's not about distrusting their loyalty.
But such a principle issue must be approached with caution. Reliance should be on systems of maintenance, not so-called loyalty and emotion.
The human heart is too illusory.
Since Jintai Gate cannot be used, what remains is Xuan Turtle Mountain, given this sect's conflicting interests with Taiping Dao, as well as its subtle schemes throughout history.
The loyalty of this sect is not at all trustworthy.
If one day a war between Taiping Dao and Jiuzhou Immortal Gate breaks out, and Xuan Turtle Mountain proactively detonates the formation and turns on us,
then at the same time, the Mountain Gate behind us also rises in rebellion, echoing the betrayal from within and without.
Lu Yuan wouldn't be surprised at all by Xuan Turtle Mountain doing such a thing.
