When Ren Xiongbei heard that the Heavenly City Sect had abandoned Heavenly City, he found it hard to believe.

Jiang Ouyang said, "It's true. When the Heavenly City Sect saw the Dragon Slang Clan and members from the demonic realm pressing upon Heavenly City, and knowing they couldn't expect timely help from the Immoral Realm, it seemed they knew they couldn't hold on. That's why they abandoned Heavenly City."

Hao Tian asked, "Did they give up without fighting back?"

Jiang Ouyang remained silent.

"How could they do that? It was said that the Army of Death is attacking our Immortal City, not theirs!" Hao Tian argued.

Jiang Ouyang said, "They were probably fooled by the Dragon Slang Clan. With the Dragon Slang Clan bringing a large group of people, the Heavenly City Sect couldn't tell who was real and who wasn't; they feared they all would die in the city, so they fled. It's understandable. And with the Immortal Realm so far away, their fears were not baseless."
