Ju Zi had achieved her goal, and even felt a surge of joy in her heart. With Huo Yuhao's help in killing these Evil Soul Masters and driving away Zhongli Wu, her plan was successfully completed. And what did it matter if she didn't attack Shrek City and simply retreated? "Secure the interior before repelling external aggressors," this logic was crystal clear to Ju Zi.
