Tai Yin Sword Master, has emerged from Shushan.
This news swiftly spread across the world. The sects of the Six Paths that received this message rapidly reconvened their meeting.
Aside from the Mortal Life Path and the Nether Ghost Path, the other sects unanimously reached a consensus to withdraw their forces, especially the Asura Path who stated it most bluntly:
"If we don't withdraw now, are we waiting for the Tai Yin Sword Master to come slaying his way up to Iron City Mountain?"
"Since the Tai Yin Sword Master has cleaved Emei, it proves that his relationship with Shushan isn't that harmonious," Wen Yang began, "Whether he truly wishes to serve as Shushan's vanguard remains unknown."
Clearly, although the Nether Ghost Path did not explicitly state their stance, they were certainly not inclined to withdraw their forces.
