To Qian Jin,
his greatest fear is precisely that Chen Ye asks for nothing.
He thought to himself:
"If I'd known Chen Ye was terrifyingly powerful, I shouldn't have tried to curry favor with True Man by seeking trouble with Chen Ye together with Gu Tangyin."
"With the plot exposed now, Lingyin Sect will likely issue a rebuke, and the True Men in the mansion will have a headache."
Originally,
the group's plan was to silently assassinate Chen Ye without leaving any evidence.
But now, don't even mention assassination,
they've been caught red-handed by Chen Ye!
It's crucial to understand that Huayue Mansion itself does not wish to conflict with Yan Cultivators; it has always adopted methods of division and appeasement over time, akin to boiling a frog in warm water, and must not drive Yan Cultivators to desperate actions.
After all,
Ruins Country may be strong, but it is not tranquil, often in conflict with the northern Ling Kingdom.
