So what if Zhang Tiande and Representative Yan have the backing of the Water Temple?
They're barely able to protect themselves now. Ling Xiao would never cower before them.
"Leng Mei, get ready to strike."
Ling Xiao smiled at Leng Mei standing beside him, his expression conveying his intent. The two were so in tune with each other that no words were needed as they silently disappeared into the darkness.

"Brother Yan, do you think we might get screwed over here? The Water Temple is under attack from all sides now. If this crowd decides to gang up on us, won't we end up dead with no place to bury our bodies?"
Zhang Tiande asked nervously.
"What are you so afraid of? These people are after the Imperial Jade Seal, not the Water Temple. If necessary, we'll just throw the seal away,"
Representative Yan said.
"I hope so. Ugh, things have been truly unlucky lately."
Zhang Tiande's heart was full of discontent.
