In the end, the reason those Heavenly Gods defected to the True God was simply to gain some benefits from the True God. Essentially, those Heavenly Gods never considered the interests of that Divine City as their own.
Thus, during that time, in order to avoid punishment, those Heavenly Gods naturally tried to stop Zhou Tian's Heavenly Gods. However, they were unlikely to risk everything for this goal.

Undoubtedly, although those Heavenly Gods hated Zhou Tian's group, there were few who were determined enough to drag the enemies to death with them.
