Sigh, he had never wished for this turn of events.
His initial desire had been to assert his authority as a Discipline Hall Pundit and thoroughly reprimand Ming Asi and His Highness Mo Lian beforehand.

It wasn't so much that their identities had frightened him away; it was more accurate to say that their sheer aura had compelled him.
Nonetheless, in the presence of all the students, he had managed to uphold the Discipline Hall's dignity. Now that they had reached their destination, he could mete out a more casual punishment.

We're in the same predicament. Come up quickly and stand on the wooden stake beside me. We can chat when we're closer."
