"The Shangguan clan serves as the administrators of the Upper Realm Heavenly Palace," Yuwen Zeming said in a deep voice. "They are a super-family. As a second-tier family, we are barely a speck in their eyes. If Xiayu dies, it simply means he has lost all value to the Shangguan clan. No one will seek revenge on our behalf for someone who is worthless."
"The Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion is the same. Moreover, they cannot openly intervene; after all, when the Pavilion was founded, they pledged to focus solely on business and never involve themselves in the conflicts of any faction."
"As for the Shentu clan, I have inquired personally. It is likely they pledged their loyalty to the eldest miss of the Shangguan clan, not to Xiayu. Even if it were Xiayu, once he is dead, the Shentu clan will know how to choose. After all, our ultimate backing is the Haotian clan."
