No one said anything; they all knew that shit had hit the fan this time. The situation had already been exacerbated past the point of redemption.
Huyan Taibao continued to ask, "Who else knows about this?"
Chen Yuan replied, "Besides that Su Jinsong of Traversing Water Palace's Suppressing Tenth Hall, no one knows. Should we—"
Huyan Taibao immediately cut him off. "Are you still suggesting we silence them? That Miao Yi is already placed under heavy scrutiny. If something were to happen to any of the people involved with him at this time, it would most likely lead back to us. We mustn't act too hastily!"
As they heard this, Su Yanran and Cao Lu immediately felt the tension in their hearts easing. Now that the situation had become so serious, the thing they were most worried about was being silenced.
"Understood!" Chen Yuan acknowledged.
