Xu Jie's kids have been guarding the place, not letting anyone else near.

But whether they can be subdued still depends on Qi Xiong and his group's abilities; after all, those few tree ghosts won't even listen to them.

Whether it succeeds or not is entirely up to them.

With the Heavenly Palace's cooperation, they were thrown straight into the Heavenly Prison, together with the previous batch of Feather God Tribe.
