Upon hearing this, everyone began to murmur among themselves. In a life-and-death battle, regardless of the outcome, neither party should be held accountable. This had always been the rule enforced by the Martial Ancestor. For Shangguan Yuan to seek retribution now, simply because Shangguan Pojun was dead, was not only extremely unfair but also something the disciples could not accept.
Chu Zhentian turned to Shangguan Yuan. "Second Brother, do not be rash. We must act with reason and evidence. Since Shangguan Pojun willingly entered a life-and-death battle with Long Chen, you, as the Earth King, have an even greater duty to abide by the rules of our Martial Ancestor. Is that not so?"
Hearing this, Shangguan Yuan's expression darkened.
Just then, a voice brimming with authority echoed from a distance. "I didn't expect the Martial Ancestor to be so lively. It seems I've arrived at the perfect time."
"Who is it?"
"Who dares trespass in our Martial Ancestor?"
