Gao Yunqi and Zhou Yi sat opposite each other, drinking liberally, tacitly avoiding further discussion of the incident.
As for the accident, they didn't blame anyone.
The only person at fault was Ximen Xuri, but Ximen Xuri was already dead.
Fang Che was ambushed and, in a rush, killed in self-defense. Could Fang Che be blamed?
Was Fang Che expected to just stand still and allow himself to be killed to be considered blameless?
In that situation, even if the Mountain Master himself were officiating, he might not have been able to stop it!
Naturally, Gao Yunqi and Zhou Yi couldn't be blamed either.
Who could have expected Ximen Xuri to hide a hidden weapon in his sleeve, and a living demon beast at that!
But someone had to take responsibility for the death. And what mattered most to a Martial Arts Academy was reputation.
One way or another, a stance had to be taken.
