Frankly speaking, it was all because of the word ‘benefit.’
When the Yang family was still strong, they could transport a significant amount of inland cultivating materials, so all the Sea Tribes got benefits.
For this reason, even if it were in the Barren City at the bottom of the sea, the Sea Tribes determined to protect the Yang family, making the Yang family become the real leader of the City.
Since the Yang family had declined, they could no longer provide any support for the Sea Tribes. Obviously, the Sea Tribes wouldn’t continue to protect the Yang family.
Not only that, because the Sea Tribes knew that the Yang family had transferred a large quantity of cultivating materials to Barren City, they even got greedy for them. So, the warriors in Barren City either secretly encouraged or supported human warriors who had evil intentions towards the Yangs.
Shi Yan was enlightened. His mind was clear about that matter.
