Xie Jiuniang stepped forward and said, "You'd better not let him die—oh, if he dies, I won't acknowledge it. Of course, even if he doesn't die, I still won't acknowledge it."
This blatant statement shocked some listeners to the core.
Xie Jiuniang initially thought this disciple was a backup plan.
But when True Person Wang launched a surprise attack and secretly prepared lethal moves.
She realized then that the real mastermind was True Person Wang.
This disciple was merely cannon fodder, a pawn that allowed True Person Wang to make his move with apparent legitimacy.
"Alas, I can hardly hold up in this situation," Xie Jiuniang sent a pleading Sound Transmission Talisman to Chaoyan, her words tinged with feigned panic, "Master, the True Person Wang from the Discipline Hall and the Gongsun Family have conspired to kill me. It's so scary! Hurry up and rescue your disciple!"
At these words,
True Person Wang's face turned steely blue. "Nonsense," he spat.
