Wen Zhongyuan, having encountered Lin Yourong, still did not go to Longtou Mountain to assist Wen Dingmo but instead sought out Mu Caisang. He told Mu Caisang that Tang Ye's momentum was now unstoppable. If asked whether he had a way to deal with Tang Ye, he could say yes and no at the same time. Because that method was a gamble on luck, yet Tang Ye's luck had always been good, and he lacked sufficient confidence. He feared failure, then his own death and Mu Caisang's as well.
Wen Zhongyuan knew Tang Ye's personality very well, as did anyone who had ever confronted him. Tang Ye had a ruthless streak deep in his bones, and those he deemed unworthy of living would be eliminated without question. Also, those who sought to kill him would not be spared either.
