Tan Shuchang was never fond of hosting guests, nor was he inclined to teach others; he preferred to respect their destinies. So, when faced with the ancestral master of Western Tuo Mountain's inquiry, he did not answer, but instead said, "Why haven't you two made a move yet? If this leads to a misunderstanding with these three friends, that would be unfortunate."
Upon hearing this, the young Taoist and the monk were both somewhat astonished, yet considering the fate of the three ancestral masters from Disciple Sword Mountain, neither dared to act.
However, while the pair were distracted, Tan Shuchang took action.
But it was not against these two, it was towards the three, already grievously injured, from Disciple Sword Mountain. Now, all three were only temporarily incapacitated, as they had the foundation of the Third Testament; given enough time, they would recover.
If it were not for this, Tan Shuchang would not have spoken up.
