While able to take care of the Blazing Fire Mountain martial practitioners who had come to invade them, while having to smile awkwardly with Su Yun, the martial practitioners of Green Dragon Mountain were pained as well as happy.
It was not that they lacked backbones. Instead, Yan Zhaoge's sweeping dominance over the three clans earlier had caused them to deeply comprehend that they might not be on the same level at all.
Admitting inferiority under such circumstances didn't have to do with one's backbone at all.
…or at least, it was this way that the people of Green Dragon Mountain comforted themselves.
Whether or not others believed it, they themselves believed it whole-heartedly.
Meanwhile, the Blood Cloud Clan and the Thunder Rumbling Clan could currently feel only pain.
