Killing a Zhang Heng is naturally something that Ye Xuan would not hesitate about; it would be no different from stomping on an ant. However, Zhang Heng is linked to the Small Cauldron, which protects him. To kill Zhang Heng, the Small Cauldron must first be suppressed.
Ye Xuan estimated the power released by the Small Cauldron just now and realized he would need to exert eighty percent of his cultivation to suppress it and kill Zhang Heng. But doing so would expose his own identity.
A dilemma lay before Ye Xuan: should he expose his cultivation to seize the Small Cauldron, or should he temporarily let it remain with Zhang Heng and find an appropriate moment to secretly kill him and take the cauldron?
"To withstand an attack from me, you are indeed a person of significance. But how long can you endure?"
