Upon the lake.
After hearing Chen Qian's words, Yue Chongbin let out a small sigh, "Elder Sun shouldn't have been careless. How could he directly confront such an arrow?"
This statement had, in effect, set the tone for this competition.
It wasn't that Chu Ning had intentionally killed Sun Chaoyang but rather that Sun Chaoyang had misjudged Chu Ning's strength, was too arrogant, and ultimately met this fate.
All of this was a result of Sun Chaoyang's own doing, having nothing to do with Chu Ning.
The Sect Master's decision to handle the situation in this way did not surprise Chen Qian and the other Elders in the slightest.
An alive Elder Sun was valuable, but a dead Elder Sun was useless.
The Luo Mountain Sect was not like the Mount Dan Sect, where Elders were cultivated step by step from disciples. The Luo Mountain Sect had Elders who were cultivated in-house and those who joined later on.
Shu Wenruan was one who joined later in his career, and so was Sun Chaoyang.
