Short-term protection, Situ Yan

Han Hongyi couldn't accept all of this. Originally, Han Xiling was supposed to smoothly become the wife of the Sect Master, and his position as the Senior Elder of Tiangang Sect would have been more secure.

Everything should have gone according to plan, but now it had completely fallen apart, and he couldn't believe it.

Hatred.

A strong sense of hatred suddenly surged in Han Hongyi's heart. If it weren't for Baili Hongzhuang, how could he have fallen to such a state?

Everything had been ruined because of Baili Hongzhuang!

Just the thought of it made Han Hongyi wish he could kill Baili Hongzhuang.

Han Hongyi's killing intent did not escape the notice of Situ Yan and the others. It seemed that Han Hongyi had also concluded that Han Xiling's death was related to Baili Hongzhuang.

Regardless of who was responsible for Han Xiling's death, it was all part of the assessment competition.

As everyone knew, everything that happened in the assessment competition was within the allowed range.

In fact, everyone understood that Han Hongyi had allowed Han Xiling to participate in the assessment competition precisely to let them have a contest.

When two people compete, there are always those who are pleased and those who are worried. Han Hongyi should have been prepared for this.

Situ Yan's expression changed slightly. It seemed that he had to be on guard against Han Hongyi.

His granddaughter would not allow anyone to have even the slightest intention!

"Elder, once we enter the assessment competition, life and death are determined by fate. Once we are out of the competition, everything is no longer of concern. You should understand this better than anyone," Situ Yan said slowly.

Upon hearing Situ Yan's words, Han Hongyi raised his head in astonishment and shock. He couldn't believe that the Sect Master would say such words to him.

The words were clearly filled with a warning!

The Sect Master was warning him not to lay a hand on Baili Hongzhuang!

Did this mean that the Sect Master was taking Baili Hongzhuang's side?

After hearing the Sect Master's words, the disciples present were also stunned for a moment. The Sect Master was clearly protecting Baili Hongzhuang!

After a brief moment of astonishment, Han Hongyi also understood.

Now that Xiling was already dead, there was no one left to compete with Baili Hongzhuang.

Moreover, Baili Hongzhuang had already proven her strength with her performance in the assessment competition.

In this way, it was perfectly legitimate for her to be with the Young Master, and without such a big obstacle, combined with the Young Master's favor, her position as the Young Master's wife was almost secure!

Everyone knew that a dead person had no value.

Even though Xiling had been highly regarded in Tiangang Sect before, now that she had fallen, everything had become meaningless.

However, Han Hongyi was unwilling!

He was unwilling to let his granddaughter fall like this, unwilling to let Baili Hongzhuang take the position that should have belonged to Xiling!

He would definitely seek revenge for Xiling!

Han Hongyi had made up his mind, but he didn't show it on his face.

Because the Sect Master and the others were already watching him, if he showed his intentions too clearly, everyone would be on guard against him.

Therefore, he needed to plan everything carefully!

"Sect Master, I'm feeling a bit unwell, so I'll take my leave." Han Hongyi spoke up.

Today's events were too complicated, and his mind was in turmoil. He needed to go back and think carefully.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yan waved his hand, indicating for Han Hongyi to leave first.

After Han Hongyi left, Situ Yan glanced at Qin Ai and Gu Jingqing, and the expressions of the three of them were all filled with complexity.

Although the Senior Elder was concealing it, they could still see it clearly.
