Given that the Dragon Gate emerged on Sunlight City's side, and with Preacher and Doctor Crazy over there, Tang Ye knew he had to make a trip. To collect the Power of the Crouching Dragon, as well as to see his master. He didn't understand the message from Red Wall regarding Preacher being with his master—what did that mean exactly? Were they fighting together, or staying together in peace?
Tang Ye's main concern was whether his master might have sided with the Dragon-Lifting Minister. He couldn't believe such a possibility. Raised by Nong Baicao, having spent so many years by his side, he was well aware of Nong Baicao's character and knew that Nong Baicao would never agree to the absurd Grand Scheme of Xuan Huang. The plan to destroy the entire land for the ambitions of a small group of martial artists—how could Nong Baicao, a doctor of great kindness and benevolence, ever agree to such a thing, let alone assist the Dragon-Lifting Minister!
