Shui Wuhen appears.
Zhou Qingyu surrenders.
Shui Wuhen then kills Sha Qitian.
== Yin Qing ==
"Monastery head Shui, my Yin family won't bother with you about your supermonastery's internal affairs. However, I absolutely have to bring Long Chen away today." Yin Qing frowned when she saw that Shui Wuhen had appeared, but she still put on a brave act.
"Oh? Why is that?" asked Shui Wuhen.
"Because Long Chen is shameless and contemptible. He poisoned one of my Yin family's geniuses, and despite trying countless methods, the best my Yin family is capable of doing is keeping her just barely alive.
"Most hateful of all is that this bastard Long Chen actually lied, saying if we found a Thousand Heart Snow Lotus, we would be able to save her life.
"We paid a huge sum in order to obtain a Thousand Heart Snow Lotus, but Yin Wushuang still continues to suffer from the pain of ten thousand ants devouring her heart. It didn't have any effect," raged Yin Qing.
Shui Wuhen's faint smile disappeared to be replaced with iciness. "Let me tell you a few things. First, you and I are not on the same level, so when you speak to me, be more respectful.
"Second, I, Shui Wuhen, don't need to give anyone any explanation about anything, especially not to a little girl like you who has only reached the half-step Sea Expansion realm.
"Third, don't think that just by using your family's name you can rampantly run amok. Although I am just a single supermonastery's monastery head, I am backed by the Xuantian Dao Sect. You ancient families don't have the qualifications to suppress me, understand?"
Yin Qing's face went from red to white. In the outside world, she could always do whatever she wanted. She had never received such a humiliation. But she also didn't dare publicly challenge Shui Wuhen, because she would be able to crush her.
It was just as Shui Wuhen said. Although she was just a monastery head, behind her was the entire Xuantian Dao Sect, one of the cultivation world's three heavenly sects. A single ancient family truly was nothing in front of such an enormous existence.
Ancient families might be able to be tyrannical in the rest of the cultivation world, but in front of the Xuantian Dao Sect, they still didn't have the qualifications to be arrogant.
"Go back and tell your family exactly what I've said. This matter is a private matter of the Xuantian Dao Sect, and we don't need them to stick their noses into it.
"Since you sent your disciple here as tempering, then you'll have to comply with our rules. In other words, I have jurisdiction over everything.
"As for Yin Wushuang's conduct, I've heard of what she has done. So, to settle this matter, I only have one phrase for you: she only has herself to blame.
"In this world, just having a strong background isn't completely reliable. That is merely something your ancestors gave you, and it can disappear at any time.
"Your disciple committed outrageous sins here. Did she think that her background placed her above the law? Perhaps that would have been true in other sects, but it isn't here. So, scram back to wherever you came from." Shui Wuhen's words were said indifferently, obviously disapproving of the Yin family's conduct.
Yin Qing was completely enraged. It was clear Shui Wuhen was protecting Long Chen and refused to give the Yin family any recompense for this matter. Now, she would be unable to obtain Long Chen's secrets, and she had lost all her prestige.
Just as Yin Qing was hesitating on what to do, Guo Ran cursed, "Hey, are you deaf? Our monastery head has already said it clearly, but you still don't understand? Alright, then let me simplify it even more. Our monastery head's meaning is this: either scram, or die."
