"How did you want to do it?" Lin Su stared into her eyes.
"I was thinking, could the Fate Palace's 'Fate Edict' also be issued against him?" Ming Tianyan said slowly.
Her words were exceedingly refined, yet a thread of killing intent seemed to rise from the depths of her heart.
Lin Su said, "Absolutely! But not now!"
"When, then?"
Lin Su slowly rose to his feet. "We have to wait for someone to return!"
Ming Tianyan also slowly stood. "Then... will he truly return?"
"He will! He definitely will!" Lin Su said. "Everything here was created by him. I don't think he would be willing to leave it all behind and never return."
The two faced each other aboard the little boat.
At this moment, they both understood each other.
They did not care all that much about the Oracle Palace's master, but neither was this the right time to take him down.
This Zhou Xingdao walked the path of the Third Heaven's sages.
He had always been the sages' loyal dog.
Back then, he concealed Li Tianlei's report and triggered the Heavenly River Tribulation. A whole pack of sages stood behind him. To rip away the sages' fig leaf now—would that not be courting death?
Only one circumstance could change this deadlock.
That was: Martial Saint's Return!
Once the Martial Saint returned, they could discuss right and wrong!
This was called truth forever being within the range of cannons. Of course, this world had no such saying, but the principle was the same. If you wanted to reason with someone, you needed the qualifications to do so.
A weak little ant trying to speak of human rights with an elephant—one stomp from the elephant would send you into the mud. Who would listen to your reasoning then?
