Every individual has their pursuit. Some of the top officials in Huaxia had their pursuits and similarly, the Supreme Elders of Sky Group had theirs. Attaining the level of power they had, they were not swayed by ordinary politicians.
Justice? Righteousness? Perhaps, the Supreme Elders of Sky Group once had them! Now, they craved for more power!

As for the future of Huaxia should something happen to them—it didn't cross their minds!
Most of them were in their hundred years of life, having experienced two dynasties. They were rather indifferent in this regard, especially considering their current level of power!
Their pursuit was Martial Arts ... attaining knowledge in the morning and dying content in the evening, such was their mindset!
In their view, the situation presented an opportunity—an opportunity that could not be missed!
