And many Sects were originally "subordinate" to the Qian Taoist Sect, following its lead.
Other Sects were "brother" Sects of the Sever Gold Sect and Gui Water Sect, with intertwined interests.
These related forces also had poor relations with the Taixu Gate.
Now, Tai'a, Chongxu, and Taixu have united into one Sect.
All these accumulated grudges and enmities naturally converged in one place.
The Taixu Gate naturally became the "target of all."
These Sect grudges are but one aspect.
Another aspect is due to the current position of the Taixu Gate.
Being the head of the Eight Great Gates is actually a hot potato.
Advance, and it threatens the Four Great Sects, becoming a "thorn in the eye" for the Four Great Sects.
Retreat, and all the Sects of the Eight Great Gates vie for the top position, and the Taixu Gate's current position becomes a "fat piece of meat" in everyone's eyes.
