The Reign of Terror (1)

"How impudent! How could they put a price on my fellow Narcissus Island disciple's head? These people are from reputable sects, yet they had the audacity to act so brazenly!" Elder Wujian cursed with his voice reverberated across the glade.

"Second Elder, we from Narcissus Island have to do something about it," said Elder Wujian again.

Elder Linghe said in a low voice, "Do something? What can we do? Should we just show up at their doors and question them? Even if we do that, what if they deny all responsibilities?"

Elder Wujian's expression turned grave. "Deny? The news has traveled far and wide. How can they not admit to it?"

"That's not necessarily true. Although news of the reward offer has been secretly circulated among the sects, none of those sects have publicly expressed their opinions. If they refuse to admit even when we question them, we will not be able to do anything to them either," said Elder Linghe.
