Although the conflict with the Sima clan had ended with thunderous finality, the smoke of battle had not yet cleared.
Instead, it shifted in an instant to the Nine Truth Palace and the Ninth Bureau.
Xuan Chen Zhenren and Dian Chunqiu, each representing their own stance, had differing views on the handling of these two captives.
The undercurrents of tension between their casual words and laughs instantly affected everyone else, making the atmosphere suddenly tense.
"How about I say something?" Li Qing felt an affection for both sides, and he thought it unnecessary to fight over this, especially since the matter did not seem that difficult to resolve, nor were the stakes that high.
All eyes instantly focused on Li Qing.
"Boy, speak," Xuan Chen Zhenren said, somewhat impatiently.
Dian Chunqiu also nodded at Li Qing.
"Why not just kill these two guys and be done with it, so we don't get entangled in any trouble," Li Qing said seriously.
