Once the news spread, the image of Taiping Tao Sect as a victim and its previously good reputation among other Cultivators would be completely destroyed.
Taiping Tao Sect would be seen just like Qing Immortal Sect and Jiuzhou Immortal Gate, having their reputations thoroughly tarnished and being viewed as fallen and corrupt.
Such a severe blow would be enough for Taiping Tao Sect to struggle significantly.
If Taiping Tao Sect did not clean up those resentful, rebellious disciples, then Qing Immortal Sect only needed to foster them openly to cultivate a force of rebellion within Taiping Tao Sect itself.
The harm caused by this wouldn't be too great immediately.
But sustained over time, it could destroy the entirety of the sect and overturn their founding principles.
Having chosen this path, Song Xiren could well wake up laughing in his dreams.
Thus, no matter the choice, they were comfortably sitting back, fishing, and not in a hurry at all.
