The Tianlan Saint Master stared intently at the Seventh Elder, questioning, "Seventh Elder, do you realize your actions this time nearly caused a catastrophe?"
The Seventh Elder bowed, head lowered, and said, "Holy Master, I know my mistakes. But since things have come to this, I am willing to accept any punishment."
The Tianlan Saint Master's expression slightly softened.
The Tianlan Saint Master spoke coldly, "Then execute Wang Zhu."
Below, the Seventh Elder kneeled on one knee, and upon hearing the Holy Master say "execute Wang Zhu," his heart trembled as if struck by lightning.
The Seventh Elder, seasoned by years in the Holy Land, had developed a calm demeanor. He steadied himself, his face unruffled, and calmly replied, "I follow the Holy Master's command."
