Lin Xun calculated the time; the Prophet from the Direct View Branch Association in the Imperial City was hurrying over.
The operation to capture him at the Multivision Association had failed, so they would likely send a scholar of the Prophet's level soon. Continuing to stay here would be tantamount to courting death.

The first two options were paths to certain death; following through with them would inevitably lead to being caught by the two Schools.
Only the third option was the sole path of survival.
