The sun had started to set. Weisheng couldn't stay out any longer, since it was the weekend. He wanted to avoid being held questionable. As someone with no outside contact, he had no excuse to tell Xiaoling in case she asked him why he stayed out late.
After entrusting Elder Lan's fate to his subordinate, Weisheng made his way to the Yongrui Sect temple. As he entered the temple, he was surprised to see how quiet it was, considering a ceremony was to be held.
As he walked inside, he was even more surprised to witness the Arbiter, standing quietly while staring at the fallen Elder.
"Second Brother…" Weisheng narrowed his eyes, "You-"
The Arbiter turned to look at Weisheng with tears in his eyes. Elder Junjie of the Yongrui Sect was the Arbiter's Master. Having to murder his own Master must've been hard for him.
"Why did you do this?" Weisheng scolded him, "Did I even ask you to go this far?"
