Making a Choice

If he were to enter Amethyst Mountain, what would happen to Xiao Shi?

Must he abandon everything, cast aside Xiao Shi and his duties at the Secret Guardians Hall to enter Amethyst Mountain?

In the beginning, he had taken Xiao Shi under his wing because of Xiao Qi. Now it was so much more than that.

What if King An regained his martial arts and sought to act out against Xiao Shi after he entered Amethyst Mountain. Who would seek justice for her? Everything couldn't be fine and dandy even if they had the Sarira beads. 

The more he thought about it, the more unlikely it looked that he could enter Amethyst Mountain. 

He always had mixed feelings about the four major sects, just as how a person who never attended college would feel about tertiary education.
