Giving In

Inside a hidden private estate in the capital city, Huo En was currently kneeling in front of a man in black, fearful and in awe.

"Huo En, do you know your mistake?" The man in black said coolly.

"Your Excellency, I … know my mistake!" Huo En hesitated for a bit, but finally still admitted his fault.

The man in black slowly turned around and said coldly, "In the Assassination Hall, you aren't wrong. But in the entire Blood Yama Hall, you've made a grave error. Now, the Fiend Medicine Hall and Hundred Knows Hall are applying pressure on me at the same time. The pressure on me, this hall master, is also huge!"

Huo En was a capable general under his command. When the Fiend Medicine Hall came over, he still supported Huo En a bit.

But, he never thought that later on, the Hundred Knows Hall actually came over to put pressure too. This doubled the pressure on him, a hall master.
