Ye Wucan’s faction agreed to stall Sikong Jing and keep extracting benefits from him, while Sikong Jing secured Willow Leaf Holy Manor’s promise not to attack the Heavenly Tyrant Branch. The deal still left Su Yuexian in danger, so Sikong Jing began looking for a powerful ally who could counter the manor.
