In the Heavenly Sect, Yang Chen held the map of the Sword Mansion distributed by the Sword Sect in his hand. The map clearly indicated the size of the Sword Mansion, which took up almost half of the entire Heavenly Sect.
In other words, the Heavenly Sect's Heavenly Sect's Heavenly Sect had been forcefully divided into half by Xiao Chen. How could Yang Chen not be furious?
He clenched his teeth so hard that they almost shattered. The anger in his eyes was almost spurting out. From the failure of the mission to the current map of the Sword Mansion, Yang Chen's anger continued to grow.
"Damn it! The Ten Mansions were jointly divided by the Ten Great Ling Tian Sects. Xiao Chen, are you trying to offend the whole world?"
The Ten Mansions were indeed jointly divided by the Ten Great Ling Tian Sects. However, the other Ling Tian Sects obviously did not have the time to care about the Heavenly Sect's matter.
For example, the situation in the Heavenly Sect was already so chaotic. However, none of the Great Ling Tian Sects stood out to speak up for the Heavenly Sect.
Firstly, it was because the Ten Mansions had just been formed. The other Ling Tian Sects had many things to deal with. They could not even manage their own affairs, let alone other people's troubles.
Secondly, the other Ling Tian Sects did not want to participate in the battle between the Sword Sect and the Heavenly Sect. They did not care who the Heavenly Sect would belong to in the end. After all, it was the Sword Sect and the Heavenly Sect's matter.
Therefore, Xiao Chen's public establishment of the Sword Mansion and forceful division of the Heavenly Sect into two did not affect the other Ling Tian Sects at all. After all, it did not affect other people's interests. Therefore, naturally, no one was willing to meddle in other people's business. Moreover, the Sword Sect's current strength was not so easy to deal with.
Yang Chen was very clear about this. He knew that he could only rely on himself for the Heavenly Sect's matter. He could not rely on the others at all. Even Yun Tianyi from the Mu Tian Mountain was unreliable. This was because Yun Tianyi was currently busy dealing with his own sect's matters. It was impossible for him to care about the Heavenly Sect's matters here.
Tearing the map in his hand into pieces, Yang Chen suppressed the anger in his heart and glared at the elders in front of him.
Facing the furious Yang Chen, the elders of Heavenly Gate lowered their heads and remained silent. However, to everyone's surprise, just when everyone thought that Yang Chen would fly into a rage, Yang Chen suddenly laughed.
It was as if the anger in his heart had dissipated in an instant. However, only Yang Chen himself knew that he was laughing out of extreme anger.
With Yang Chen's personality, how could the anger in his heart disappear so quickly after suffering defeat at the hands of Xiao Chen? Yang Chen was so angry that he laughed, or rather, it was an expression of helplessness in his heart.
Based on the current situation, it was true that the Heavenly Gate could no longer suppress the Sword Sect unless an all-out war was declared. However, there were some things that Yang Chen was still preparing for the final battle with the Sword Sect. Now was not the time.
Previously, his master, Tao Ming, had attacked the Sword Sect twice, but both times had ended in failure. Learning from the previous lesson, Yang Chen knew that if he wanted to destroy the Sword Sect, he had to be well-prepared. Otherwise, it was very likely that he would repeat the same mistake.
If the Heavenly Gate was defeated by the Sword Sect three times, it would definitely be a fatal blow to the Heavenly Gate. It was precisely because of this that Yang Chen had to endure it again and again.
In fact, Xiao Chen had grasped Yang Chen's mentality very well. He knew that Yang Chen would not start an all-out war with the Sword Sect at this time. Therefore, Xiao Chen dared to expand the Sword Mansion's sphere of influence so unscrupulously.
Of course, Xiao Chen's division of the Sword Mansion's area was actually done after a lot of consideration. Although it seemed unacceptable to Yang Chen, it did not touch Yang Chen's bottom line. To put it bluntly, Yang Chen could accept Xiao Chen's way of doing things. He could endure it.
If Xiao Chen directly expanded the Sword Mansion's area by one province, Yang Chen would probably not be able to tolerate it anymore. This was because the Sword Mansion's area would exceed the Heavenly Gate's.
However, although Xiao Chen's Sword Mansion's area had been expanded by a lot, it was still one province less than the Heavenly Gate's area. As a result, it did not really touch Yang Chen's bottom line.
Yang Chen roared with laughter. The elders of the Heavenly Gate were rather confused when they heard Yang Chen's laughter. They all raised their heads to look at Yang Chen who was laughing.
Under their gazes, Yang Chen stopped laughing after quite a while and slowly sat down. There was not the slightest trace of anger on his face. Instead, he spoke with a smile.
"I never thought that there would be a day when I would be infuriated. Haha, how laughable. Simply laughable. Don't you all agree?"
Yang Chen was actually laughing at himself. Naturally, no one dared to casually answer him. Seeing that they were silent, Yang Chen did not make a fuss about it and continued.
"Master has once said that the outcome is still unknown until the very end. Now is not the time to destroy the Sword Sect. There's no harm in letting Xiao Chen be complacent for a while. I've lost my composure earlier and made quite a few mistakes, but that's fine. It's not certain who will have the last laugh."
Yang Chen quickly regained his composure amidst his extreme anger. Moreover, when he recalled the mistakes he had made due to his anger, he could only smile bitterly.
It had to be said that Yang Chen was indeed worthy of being called a monstrous genius. He quickly woke up from his mistakes.
At this moment, Yang Chen was very clear that even though the Sword Sect seemed to be on par with the Heavenly Gate and the Heavenly Gate was unable to do anything to the Sword Sect, it was like a castle in the air that could collapse at any time.
Even though Xiao Chen had divided the Sword Sect, if the Sword Sect was defeated in the final battle, the Sword Sect would naturally cease to exist.
Therefore, the outcome of the final battle still had to be determined. In this way, it was not advisable to be tangled up in such trivial matters. It was an irrational decision.
Yang Chen suddenly regretted his actions. As such, he completely let go of the matter regarding the Sword Sect. He would first let Xiao Chen be happy. As for the final outcome, it would only be determined after the final battle.
After laughing, Yang Chen looked at everyone present and said.
"Pass down my order. Tell all the major forces in the Sword Sect to return to the Heavenly Gate and send people to protect them."
Hearing Yang Chen's words, everyone present was stunned. They did not expect Yang Chen to make such a decision. Immediately, someone asked in confusion, "Sect Master, are we just going to let the matter of the Sword Sect go?"
"A castle in the air has no foundation after all. What's wrong with giving it to him temporarily?" Yang Chen replied with a smile.
