Don’t criticize without experiencing it; Yu Yan and Ban Wu were part of Tiger Peak Manor.
As Elders of the Manor, how can you treat them as outsiders!"
The Manor Master spoke sternly.
These words also revealed the Manor Master’s intentions.
"Manor Master, your intent is to fight him to the end?"
The two Elders softly inquired.
This inquiry seemed to further solidify the Manor Master’s resolve.
"Tiger Peak Manor has stood on the Southern Heaven Continent for a millennium. Would our ancestors have ever compromised?
Why has the Manor attracted so many talents?
Without the Manor’s renowned reputation, would we enjoy the prosperity we have today?
We fear no top sects, yet we fear a single individual.
If we compromise, when we return to the afterlife, our ancestors will hold us accountable.
Our ancestors would make us kneel down and sincerely repent for the decisions we made today!"
Word by word, You Wanying beside him was moved to tears, her eyes red.
The two Elders at her side were also somewhat affected.
"Manor Master, we will follow your word. What shall we do, you decide."
Upon hearing this, the Tiger Peak Manor Master glanced at You Wanying and nodded at her.
The four of them stood in the snow, conversing.
The final decision was that Tiger Peak Manor would spare no effort to assassinate Shen Han.
The manor would bring out its resources and treasures to seek assistance from other martial sects.
The manor would forgo its interests for this period to focus solely on this one task.
The disciples of the sect were not to wander off on their own, and the elders were to exert their collective effort to resolve this matter completely.
Though the two elders were reluctant, they nodded in agreement after some consideration.
With its reputation for protecting its own, Tiger Peak Manor had gained many benefits on the Southern Heaven Continent.
As it stood now, they were essentially giving back what they had gained in the past.
However, with such determination and resolve, Tiger Peak Manor’s reputation for protecting its own would remain intact.
On the Southern Heaven Continent, not many still dared to provoke Tiger Peak Manor.
Upon making this decision, You Wanying knelt down with a thud.
Several people wanted to help her up, but she stopped them all.
"People of Tiger Peak Manor are all one family.
I, You Wanying, will remember today’s events in my heart forever, never to forget.
If anyone dares to harm the disciples of our manor in the future, I will protect them just like today, even if it costs me my life!"
Today, You Wanying was deeply moved.
The manor’s commitment to its own was not mere rhetoric.
They were willing to forgo vast benefits to avenge this deep grievance.
"Elder Wanying, please rise. As long as Tiger Peak Manor is determined.
Dealing with someone in the Rainbow-Devouring Realm is not difficult.
If a giant decides to crush an ant, it will succeed without fail."
After discussions among the four, they seemed to concur in heart.
Next, they would mobilize other sects for assistance.
Tiger Peak Manor did not believe that offering treasures wouldn’t attract help.
Giving out these treasures would indeed be painful.
But the decision was made, so there was no need to dwell on it further.
Bringing Half-Wu’s coffin along, everyone prepared to return to Tiger Peak Manor.
The woman from Nine Heavens Palace, Lv Xinrong, also prepared to go along to send Half-Wu off on her final journey.
At this time, Shen Ao had already returned to Tiger Peak Manor.
He found an excuse, claiming that when Shen Han ambushed Half-Wu, he was injured.
Being weak in strength, he could only escape first.
Moreover, while injured, he transmitted a message to others for assistance.
After all, Half-Wu had died, and only Shen Han saw Shen Ao’s terrified state at the time.
