The standoff between the Heavenly Court and Paradise has lasted for several days, but there hasn't been any substantial progress. Both sides have mostly been exchanging verbal attacks, without any signs of battle starting.
Beigong War God speculated that Paradise was just putting on a show. Their strength is inferior to that of the Heavenly Court, so it's unlikely they would start the war so soon!
Su Yang's thoughts were actually the same as Beigong War God's speculation.
In fact, Paradise had long wanted to confront the Heavenly Court, but because Ye Sword Saint, while guarding the overseas areas previously, killed many overseas practitioners, causing them heavy losses. So now, although the strength of Paradise is slightly stronger than the Four Major Clans, it is still limited. If they were truly to start a fight, even if Paradise could defeat the Four Major Clans, it would be at a great cost.
