Master Chang swore to heaven that he had not provoked Shi Jie and had even kindly offered plenty of warnings.
There was no helping it. The bounty issued by Feng Jun was simply too terrifying. Even a power as strong as the Ten Directions Platform had no choice but to kneel.
The Yin Sha Sect had not knelt, but its Golden Core True Adepts had suffered even greater casualties than the Ten Directions Platform. In the end, it was said that a True Immortal had spoken up, and only then did the two sides stop fighting—at the very least, Feng Jun had not lost.
Then why had Master Chang not dared approach Feng Jun before? Because Feng Jun was not afraid of those two factions, but he was.
One sentence explained it all: Feng Jun was exceptionally formidable and influential, but his weakness was also obvious... his own forces were insufficient.
Those two factions could casually gather several hundred Emergence from Dust Adepts and dozens of Golden Cores. Taking out a tiny Golden Core family in the shadows would be far too easy, and it might not even draw Feng Jun's attention.
