"Alas... we can do nothing but watch him exhaust his mind and spirit," Zeng Yue said.
"We will get out of the Crime-Suppressing Hall. Void Sage Fang's eyes will be cured," Yun Zhaochен said.
Meng Jingye said, "Several hundred years ago, a Grand Academician's family was killed by demon barbarians, and he set out for revenge. Every day, apart from fighting, he racked his brains over how to gain greater power, forcing himself to comprehend the Sacred Way. He could neither eat nor sleep properly. Within days, his eyes looked just like Void Sage Fang's. In the end, both eyes burst, leaving bloody holes, and he became completely blind. Later, a Half-Sage intervened and regrew his eyes, but he could never see again. Even when a Great Scholar of the Medical School said his eyes were perfectly intact, he still could not see anything. Before long, his Literary Palace collapsed. Alas..."
Lian Pingchao said, "I think you're reading too much into this. How could he possibly be racking his brains to find a way out of here? He probably just can't endure the punishment. That Grand Academician ended up that way because he was trying to comprehend the Sacred Way. Fang Yun is merely a Hanlin Academician. What could he possibly use to comprehend the Sacred Way? If he were really attempting it, he would probably be dead already!"
Wei Huangan turned to Lian Pingchao and said, "If you and I both get the chance to leave the Crime-Suppressing Hall, I will take the head from your shoulders."
Meng Jingye fixed Lian Pingchao with an icy stare. "If I get the chance to leave the Crime-Suppressing Hall, I will slaughter all nine branches of your clan with my own hands! Their killer will not be me, but you, Lian Pingchao."
