The Zhensui Mansion did not kill living people; this was the rule, and many knew it.
Hu Ma was also uncertain if this was one of the reasons the Yan family dared to provoke the Zhensui Mansion, but he understood that the Mansion's rule of not killing living people had three exceptions. The first exception applied to those who walked the Walking Ghost Path: if they revered Zhensui Mansion but broke its rules, they could be killed. The second applied to those who disrupted the order of yin and yang and violated taboos; Zhensui Mansion could apprehend them and execute them as criminals. The third was if any ghostly gods appealed for injustice; after investigation, a human head was required to bring justice to the ghostly gods.
Earlier, the Yan family had gathered so many martial artists, piling them everywhere and causing trouble. Naturally, Hu Ma felt irritated.
