That day, Elder Ying went to seek an audience with the Shadow Moon Palace Lord about the destruction in Hill City, speaking frankly of the shock and rage he felt and he went on to state that he was willing to conduct a full investigation into the entire incident. Moreover, he went on to say that as Yue Yi had gone missing, Elder Yue being his "grandfather" would be swayed by emotions and he requested for the Shadow Moon Palace Lord to hand over the matter to him to deal with.
The Shadow Moon Palace Lord was initially still a little hesitant, but after hearing that Yue Ye had fallen ill from heartbreak and was being placed into Jun Wu Xie's residence for them to allow Yue Ye to recover, the Shadow Moon Palace Lord then made a firm decision.
He decided to hand the entire matter at Hill City over to Elder Ying fully, and also bestowed upon Elder Ying a certain level of authourity.
When Elder Yue knew about it, he was greatly shocked.
