Zhang Yi was already crying by this time, he had already understood that something horrible had happened to his masters, but of course he wanted to know exactly what happened and he was sure his masters would expect it from him.
His master spent a long time just staring silently, saying nothing as if he expected Zhang Yi to make the decision to break the crystal or hear to the end what really happened, after a long time his master spoke again.
"I was hoping you wouldn't break the crystal, know I just decided to tell you what happened because I think it's your right to know that, and if I didn't say you could try to find out what happened and die by doing it."
"But know that neither I nor your other master expected any kind of revenge, this is something that not even we who were in the emperor's realm could do anything about even with all our influence."
