Wen Yan felt that the people of Zhongnan had misunderstood him—he truly wasn't deliberately targeting anyone, nor was he intentionally trying to do anything.
Just like how he sent the surveillance footage straight to Scorching Sun Headquarters at the first moment, and now, as soon as the sun set, he had appeared at the foot of Mount Zhongnan—purely to make it in time.
If someone dies during the day, there are only two possible outcomes: disperse on the spot, or their nether soul remains.
Considering the person likely died with deep resentment and outside the sect gates, if even then he could find satisfaction and peace of mind, his soul would have dissipated to the wind after death, leaving no lingering regrets.
Wen Yan would accept that.
Evidently, no matter how much courage or resolve someone has to do a thing, their true thoughts can never lie to themselves.
This Taoist named Ma Mingzi—his nether soul remained.
