No, it can be used for more than just constraining Great Jin.

He can even use it to counterattack Sikong Yue!

A gleam flashed in Hou Yuxiao's eyes as he lifted his head to look at the six allied saints who had descended. Then he turned to face Wanyan Cheng across from him, with an undeniable sense of triumph on his face.

"Master of Hou Family, don't be too pleased too soon..."

Wanyan Cheng seemed to realize that killing Hou Yuxiao was hopeless, and that he must lose face today in front of the countless citizens of the divine capital. It was as if he were brewing something, and after his previous words, he paused slightly, revealing a cold smile on his face:

"This Saint won't kill you, but these allied saints have nothing to do with that!"

Having said this, he immediately turned around and flew away.

But Hou Yuxiao's complexion darkened significantly in an instant because he noticed a subtle change in the gazes of the six allied saints looking at him.

This Emperor Yuliang is truly sinister enough.

He was sowing discord between him and the alliance, implying that the six masters of the Holy Lands hadn't intended to step forward to save someone or kill him, purely because of the small square seal of the divine sect.

Not only sowing discord, but there also seemed to be a hint of enticement in Wanyan Cheng's words.

"Mr. Hou's northern journey this time was intended to aid the alliance, but there is limited capability. Even if I went to Dongyuan Path, I fear I wouldn't be able to provide much help to the alliance. After much thought, only by launching a surprise attack on the divine capital and disrupting the rear of Great Jin could I aid our alliance's army. Given the urgency of the situation, I dared not go to Dongyuan Path to consult with you all. I acknowledge there were oversight and inadequacies, and hope you will be forgiving, seniors!"

Despite knowing that the six masters of the Holy Lands had issues with him, and that they had just deliberately stayed away to purposely reprimand him, he bore a grudge against them. Yet, driven by a strong survival instinct and considering the events to follow, Hou Yuxiao immediately proclaimed his loyalty to the six, or rather, his firm stance on the side of the alliance, resolutely opposing Jin.

After all, he could only stand on this side.

He had bowed his head for so long; one more time wouldn't make a difference.

Thus, Hou Yuxiao felt little burden in his heart.

In fact, in a way, his gratitude toward these six was genuine.

Without the support of the alliance, it would have been impossible for him to breach the divine capital so smoothly and to bring out the small square seal of the divine sect to test Wanyan Cheng.

Sure enough, upon hearing Hou Yuxiao's words, the faces of the six looked much better, and their previously questioning gazes softened noticeably.

"National Master Hou, you are too modest. Merely with two hundred thousand Red Flame Army, you toyed with the three kings of Great Jin, reclaimed the divine capital, supported the Sixteenth Prince to inherit the throne, and assisted Great Yu's restoration. Such feats are beyond our reach, how could we hold any grudge!"

Meng Qu was the first to speak, directly addressing Hou Yuxiao as National Master. After his words, he immediately turned to look at Jiang Yuyun sitting high on the imperial throne below, his expression growing markedly more reverent, and his body slightly bowed:

"Head of Yangzhou Academy, Meng Qu, pays respects to Emperor Yu!"

As his voice fell, four more voices immediately followed:

"Sect Master of Wanjian Holy Sect of Xuzhou, Jing Yuanxiu, pays respects to Emperor Yu!"

"Head of Yanzhou Academy, Xun Mu, pays respects to Emperor Yu!"

"Sect Master of Qingzhou Haoran Holy Sect, True Man Yu Tian, pays respects to Emperor Yu!"

"Sect Master of Ziqing Holy Sect of Jiaozhou, Wei Xuheng, pays respects to Emperor Yu!"

......

Excluding the Wuwei King Hou Jing, all five saints saluted Jiang Yuyun.

Upon witnessing this scene, Hou Yuxiao's heart was slightly shaken.

Clearly, he had somewhat underestimated the weight of Jiang Yuyun, this newly appointed Emperor Yu!
