Guanyun was continuously forced to retreat by the overwhelming presence of Yao Bofu. Just as Gouyun was about to step forward, Yao Bofu glared dominantly and said, "Gouyun, do not provoke me here!"
Gouyun's anger flared up, and just as he was about to retort, a hearty laugh came from behind.
It was the handsome man in white who spoke up. With one hand on the hilt of his sword, he said with an imperial air, "Gentlemen, why be angry over a few words? In this matter, Brother Guanyun was indeed in the wrong. Who in the world doesn't know of Brother Bofu's character? He could have refused to let us enter and fought us to the death; since he has allowed us to come in, he will not stoop to trickery. Brother Bofu is a descendant of Emperor Shun of Great Virtue, a man who conducts himself with transparency and integrity, a person of virtue! You may kill him, but you must not insult him."
