After receiving He Shuo's report, Chen Jian swiftly issued the order to withdraw from Jinling City.
Although there's not enough evidence right now to prove that Zhang Tao might turn against the Huaxia Army before the war starts, Chen Jian trusts He Shuo's judgment.
If he has already felt that the direction of the Mechanical God Sect is becoming uncontrollable, the last choice when facing a major threat is to maintain distance and avoid contact as much as possible.
However, this withdrawal made Chen Jian completely lose confidence in the Mechanical God Sect.
He initially thought that supporting a relatively trustworthy leader to come to power could change the situation of the Mechanical God Sect, gradually 'transform' and 'purify' it, but evidently, the inertia of religion is too strong.
The conspiracy of the ambitious can never be extinguished with metaphysical theories, but only washed away with solid artillery.
