Separation

People were like this. Whenever they did something against their conscience, they liked to give it a perfect excuse. Give them a staircase, and they could wrap that excuse so neatly you would be left without a word of rebuttal.

Now, everyone had a reason to dress up their excuses.

"That little thief Yang Chen committed countless evils on the First Level and Second Level. Everyone has the right to punish him!"

"Exactly. True Person Yunyang, since you put it that way, we'll reluctantly agree for the sake of your wholehearted desire to avenge your sect members."

"All of our various factions will agree to this once!"

Clearly, everyone had agreed to True Person Yunyang for the sake of the Dragon Subduing Saber, yet no one said so aloud.

True Person Yunyang sneered inwardly. Avenging his sect members? At the end of the day, the reason he wanted to find Yang Chen was merely for the treasures on Yang Chen's person.

Still, True Person Yunyang put on a perfect act, wiping away tears with a moved expression. "Thank you all for your help. If we can find that Yang fellow, I will certainly reward you handsomely!"

"Of course, of course!"

"You jest, True Person Yunyang. What kind of relationship do we have?"

Though every faction harbored its own schemes, their words were beyond reproach.

Seeing that these people had no further objections, True Person Yunyang continued, "Since that is the case, we shall leave this matter to the local main city forces of Haohai Main City. We will remain in the rear to oversee matters. Should anything unexpected occur, we can act at any time. This way, it will be fair and impartial. What do you all think?"

"No problem!"

"No problem!"

None of the various factions had any objections.
