Once all the external enemies within the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect were captured and imprisoned, a purge of the internal traitors began.
And the first target of this purge, unsurprisingly, was the chief culprit behind the rebellion.
First Elder Song Zhe.
Had it not been for his secret collusion with external enemies and his betrayal of the sect, the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect's Tier Four Mountain Protection Array—a legacy of hundreds of years—could never have been broken so easily.
It was his meticulous scheming that ignited the fury of every elder and disciple in the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect.
To be fair, there were certainly those within the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect who grumbled about the Ouyang Clan's hereditary hold on power.
The few elders of other surnames who had previously sided with Song Zhe all harbored similar sentiments, to one degree or another.
But that by no means meant they were willing to betray the sect.
