"The Xiao Tribe, huh."
Bai Qiu murmured the name, seemingly lost in thought, without saying more.
Ao Tian, standing to the side, was blunt as usual, "Just them? Did none of their own Xiao Tribe people come?"
Su Chengyu shook his head, "At least, I didn't see them, and..."
"And what?"
"I don't think the Xiao Tribe would tarnish their own reputation by getting directly involved. Since they've chosen to send the beasts instead, it's likely they've left themselves room to maneuver in the event that the Luo Clan doesn't face annihilation. This way, they still have a plausible explanation."
As long as no member of the Xiao Tribe personally steps in, even if the Luo Clan barely survives, the Xiao Tribe could distance itself, blaming everything on these Demon Clan creatures.
Though the Luo Clan people would undoubtedly understand the truth, outwardly, it would be difficult to directly challenge the Xiao Tribe.
