"Pal, I've let you down regarding Little Wu's incident!" Li An instantly apologized with a guilty expression on his face when saw the travel-weary Yang Chong.
Yang Chong was an old man with an ordinary appearance and a huge built. His hair and eyebrows were white. He looked like a looming pagoda as he stood there.
He shook his head when he heard Li An's apology. "I understand your difficulty. If I were you, I would've done the same. For this reason, I don't blame you for Little Wu's death!"
He had learned about what happened from the old servant that followed by his son's side, and he could understand Li An's actions. If Li An had intervened more than he already did, it would cause an even bigger incident.
Since this would affect the Fire Worship Sect's reputation, the high-ranking officials of the Fire Worship Sect would likely expel Li An to save the sect's reputation. For this reason, he understood why Li An acted the way he did.
