Ji Chengtian had just returned to Chengtian Base when he issued a flurry of orders, not only summoning all the corpse-hunting teams back but also insisting that everyone defend the walls. To deal with those seven factions, he accused Meng Ping and the others of treason and colluding with Peace Base, seizing control over the seven leaders. Simultaneously, he declared to everyone that Peace Base would attack Chengtian Base!
Each of the seven leaders had left their trusted people behind in the base. Although these people didn't entirely believe Ji Chengtian's words, they nevertheless harbored resentment towards Meng Ping and the others, with some even suggesting that their families and friends be captured. Ji Chengtian was so eager to do just that, and as soon as the suggestion was made, he agreed and had them all apprehended.
