Yun Shan Breaks Through
Law Protector Wu left, and no conflict broke out between the two sides.
Xu Qi had originally thought Law Protector Wu would fly into a rage from humiliation and that they would end up fighting, which was why he had called Yun Yun over—he had sensed Law Protector Wu's arrival.
If they fought, Yun Yun could be of considerable help.
Law Protector Wu was, after all, a genuine Dou Zong. Xu Qi was not yet completely confident he could kill him alone, so bringing help ensured that if they came to blows, they could take him down.
And it was fortunate Yun Yun had been there. If Xu Qi had been alone, unless he had truly killed Law Protector Wu on the spot, it would have been difficult to convince Yun Shan.
"Old Sect Master, I know the people of Soul Hall. They are sinister, cunning, and ruthless. They would never do anything that benefited others. You absolutely must not let him deceive you," Xu Qi said.
"It was also thanks to you arriving in time to stop me. Thinking back on it now, I truly cannot afford to harbor any wishful thoughts."
After reflecting on it, Yun Shan realized that he still had to rely on steady, honest cultivation.
Once he agreed to Law Protector Wu's deal, there was no telling what would happen afterward. He could not let someone else get leverage over him.
"The greatest taboo in cultivation is rushing recklessly ahead. Steady cultivation is what matters most. Teacher, that is the lesson you taught me, and I have always kept it in mind," Yun Yun said as well.
"This time, your teacher was indeed muddleheaded."
Being lectured by two juniors made Yun Shan feel rather embarrassed, so he hurriedly changed the subject.
