Shangguan Shang said in a deep voice, "I have gathered you all here today because I have a task for you to do!"
"Please give your orders, Sect Master!"
Xiahou Jian quickly responded, and Gao Yan and the others also responded.
"This matter involves a secret!"
As he spoke, Shangguan Shang tossed a jade slip to everyone.
After receiving the jade slip, everyone began to read the information inside.
After reading the information inside, Gao Yan understood the whole story.
It turns out that the nine founding ancestors were not native cultivators of the Eastern Wilderness, but came from a family of cultivators in the Central Plains.
The territory of Zhongzhou had long been divided up, and the method of division was jointly maintained by the five holy lands.
Expanding territory is simply impossible.
However, the nine founding ancestors were quite unwilling to accept that having nine Saint Realm experts was not enough to expand and strengthen their family.

The nine founding patriarchs naturally did not want them to take them away, so they split up to hunt them down.
Then he killed two more Saint Realm experts, but the last Saint Realm expert escaped!
Then, the nine founding ancestors established the Nine Saints Sect on the original territory of the True Demon Sect.
During this time, they did not give up their pursuit of that Saint Realm expert from the True Demon Sect, but it was as if he had disappeared from the world.
As time passed, the nine founding patriarchs stopped pursuing the other party.
Unexpectedly, after so much time has passed, the True Demon Sect has reappeared.
The deaths of a large number of outer disciples and the mass annihilation of several teams of true disciples during this period were all the work of the True Demon Sect.
