Two Meetings (3)

With everything in consideration, Peacock Lord stated:

"Sun Wuji, the evidence is not enough to decide that Second Elder and Alchemy Center have betrayed us. And we can't take any action against Sikong Clan either. The only thing we can do now is to covertly prepare for the worst and wait for Tian'er to come back from the valley. There might be something he had not told you yet. But if that's all he had to say about this matter, I'm afraid there's not much of a choice."

Peacock Lord shook his head as he continued:

"Not only that, we might have to pay a huge sum to compensate for Sikong Jiu's lost arm. If my guess is right, Sikong Clan will come to us as soon as Tian'er returns alive and demand that blade-like fine bronze material from us."
