The Ancestor suppressed Han Jinhai with a single slap. It seemed like a punishment, but in reality, the Ancestor was protecting him, drawing him under the cover of his aura. For the moment, Han Cheng couldn't make a move.
To kill Han Jinhai now, Han Cheng would have to take down the Ancestor as well.
But that was clearly impossible.
Although Han Cheng was powerful and had the Nine-Layered Golden Qilin Tower, there was still a significant gap between him and the Ancestor.
He had the power to face the Ancestor head-on for a short period, but not the ability to defeat him.
Worse, if he enraged the Ancestor, the old man could, at great cost, initiate a clan-wide judgment. By using the clan's blood and soul with a Secret Technique to suppress the Nine-Layered Golden Qilin Tower, Han Cheng's fate would be sealed—he would face certain death.
Of course, doing so would inflict immense damage on the Golden Roar Race. The Ancestor wouldn't resort to it unless absolutely necessary.
