From Shanghai Tianhua's words, the Southern Heaven Gate could tell what the Pavilion Master was trying to say. It seemed like he did not want to interfere with the Disciplinary Hall.
As a matter of fact, just as the Southern Heaven Gate had thought, Shanghai Tianhua did not want to pressure the Disciplinary Hall, or strictly speaking, Ram Jie, just because of Nan Tianyong's death.
Ram Jie was a trusted general that Shanghai Tianhua had personally raised. He had always been highly regarded by the Southern Heaven Gate. Although there had been some criticism in the past, Ram Jie's ability and achievements were obvious to all.
Everyone had their own way of doing things. Since Shanghai Tianhua thought highly of Ram Jie, he would not interfere with Ram Jie's business. Otherwise, if he were to interfere too much, not only would it bring no benefits, it would also cause a rift in their relationship. With the wisdom of Shanghai Tianhua, he would not make such a low-level mistake.
Furthermore, although Nan Tianyong's death was a big deal in Shanghai Tianhua's eyes, it was still a small matter. His personal intelligence had already reported to him that Nan Tianyong had tried to kill Lin Er in front of the crowd, only to be killed in the end.
Based on Shangguan Tianhua's usual way of doing things, even though he was the Pavilion Master of the Soaring Sky Pavilion, he wouldn't blindly protect his own people. It was normal for cultivators to kill each other. As long as they weren't killed by underhanded means, even if it was a core disciple of the Soaring Sky Pavilion who died, Shangguan Tianhua wouldn't make a big fuss about it.
Deaths were bound to happen in the Jianghu. Since he was not as strong as the Pavilion Master, there was nothing more to say. He deserved to die.
However, it was impossible for Shanghai Tianhua to tell his disciples about this. He could only express his stance by treating it coldly.
The Southern Heaven Gate initially thought they had a chance to convince the Pavilion Master to help them. With just a few words, they would be able to pressure the Disciplinary Hall, and Lin Er would have nowhere to hide. However, they did not expect Shanghai Tianhua to treat it so coldly.
In front of the top boss of Shangguan Tianhua. After all, the Southern Sky Gate was only an insignificant figure. Since the big shot had already expressed his stance, no matter how dissatisfied the small figure was, he wouldn't dare to continue dwelling on this issue. Otherwise, if he angered the big shot, it would be hard to say what would happen to him.
"Pavilion Master, this disciple also knows that the Law Enforcement Hall has its own rules and does not allow external forces to interfere. This disciple has no complaints about this, but this disciple and Nantian Yong are brothers from the same mother. Now that my brother has been killed, I can't just sit back and do nothing. Even if it's just me, I must avenge him! "The South-Heaven Gate's eyes were filled with tears as he spoke in a righteous tone.
The passionate and righteous expression was obviously an act. However, the South-Heaven Gate was not afraid of being seen through by Shanghai Tianhua. Even if it was a fake act, the content of the words was the truth.
Whether it was for the reputation of the Three Heroes of the Nan Clan. In order to give their eldest brother, Nan Tianba, a satisfactory explanation, with the Southern Heaven Gate's current situation, they had to find Lin Er and avenge their third brother, Nan Tianyong.
"You're quite ambitious, it's a good thing." It's a good thing. "Shangguan Tianhua nodded calmly, but didn't say anything else.
Based on Shangguan Tianhua's temperament, no matter how noble or lowly he was, he would always praise hot-blooded and loyal men. However, he had behaved in such a cold manner. It was obvious that he had seen through the South-Heaven Gate's plan.
The South-Heaven Gate's face blushed in embarrassment. Luckily, he was quite shrewd. He managed to remain calm and continued, "Pavilion Master, I, an inner disciple of the Soaring Sky Pavilion, Yu Zhe, witnessed with my own eyes that the person who killed my third brother, Nan Tianyong, was a rogue cultivator who called himself Lin Er. The only person who knows the identity of this rogue cultivator is the manager of the Hong Merchant Guild, Hong Zhong."
Lin Er? Shanghai Laner, who was playing with the Little Curly Bear, pricked up her ears when she heard the familiar word.
Although Lin Yi had never told her that he was Lin Er, and Shanghai Laner had always been naive, her intelligence was not low. She could easily guess the relationship between Lin Yi and Lin Yi based on what Lin Yi had asked her to do.
Even if she was a bit confused about why Yu Zhe couldn't recognize Lin Yi in front of him, she could still guess what was going on. She just didn't point it out.
Lin Er killed Nan Tianyong? After hearing the South-Heaven Gate's words, Shanghai Laner was stunned. Due to the fact that she had been supervised by Shanghai Tianhua for the past few days, the rumors that were spreading in the outside world did not reach her ears. She was stunned when she heard the news.
Shanghai Laner was not strong herself, but she had been influenced since she was young. She knew the strength of a supervising deacon of the Soaring Sky Pavilion like the back of her hand. He was at least at the peak of the late-stage Foundation Establishment Realm. Her Junior Brother was able to kill him?
Shanghai Laner was instantly curious. She did not care about Nan Tianyong's life or death. In comparison, she was closer to her Junior Brother, Lin Yi. Therefore, it went without saying that she would side with Lin Yi.
Previously, Nan Tianyong and Yu Zhe had been looking for the so-called Lin Er. Since this pair of master and disciple had been plotting against her Junior Brother, Lin Yi, they were definitely not good people. Nan Tianyong must have pushed them too far, so her Junior Brother had no choice but to kill them. That must be it!
Shangguan Lan 'er wasn't interested in the conversation between her grandfather and the Southern Sky Gate, but now she was interested. She just wanted to gather some information for her Junior Brother Lin Yi, so that she could prepare for anything in advance, so that Lin Yi wouldn't be flustered when the time came.
"Hong Zhong?" Shanghai Tianhua hesitated for a moment, then looked at the South-Heaven Gate and said, "You went to find him?"
Seeing that Shanghai Tianhua seemed to be interested, the South-Heaven Gate became excited and said, "Pavilion Master is wise. According to what I know, this Shopkeeper Hong not only has a close relationship with Lin Er, but he also added fuel to the fire during the conflict between Lin Er and my Third Brother, Nan Tianyong. His intentions are extremely sinister! Today, this disciple went to find Shopkeeper Hong to inquire about Lin Er's identity, but unexpectedly, not only did this Shopkeeper Hong refuse to cooperate with me, but he also rudely ordered several Honored Guests to kick this disciple out. This is simply not putting our Soaring Sky Pavilion in his eyes. This is intolerable, please uphold justice for this disciple! "
At the end of his speech, the Southern Heavenly Gate was filled with righteous indignation. This time, he wasn't faking it. When he recalled the scene of him being thrown down from the second floor, the Southern Heavenly Gate's face couldn't help but burn with embarrassment!
