On the other hand, both direct disciples had incidents, especially Zhao Hai Zhen, whom he sent to Qi Yuan, now with his life uncertain, might even be expelled from the Magic Sect.

If he doesn't step forward to argue his case, how would the other disciples of his faction see it? Others likely wouldn't want to support him anymore, not to mention sincerely help him work.

So he came, voluntarily gave the Ancestral Hall a reason to punish him, accepting the punishment on the spot, which can be considered an explanation. Thus, making a mistake is also an art; sometimes you even need to let people know you made a mistake.

However, the punishment from the two elders was unexpectedly severe; a year of sealing and a broken leg on the spot, which was beyond his expectations. He thought it would just be a few months of sealing, at most half a year.

The leg injury can heal, not resulting in a disability, and under normal circumstances, it would recover quickly. But now, with the cultivation sealed and injured, he'll have to endure more suffering.

But it's also good this way, as it maintains the authority of the Ancestral Hall while showing the cost he has paid.

Many ordinary Magic Sect disciples can't see through so many things and are unaware of so many circumstances. In their eyes, Steward Wan isn't without commitment, willing to be punished, and still needs to stand up and speak for the disciples, truly paying the price for it.

He has less than two days; if it were someone else, even if they thought about it, they might not be able to do it. A slight hesitation and the opportunity would pass...

Wild Phoenix sighed again: "It's a pity, that he has formed a deadly enmity with Hidden Moth."

Gu Chun: "With Wan Zhongle's temperament, it's possible he wouldn't hesitate to use this incident to set up a trap for Hidden Moth."

Wild Phoenix: "How so?"

Gu Chun: "He's been punished with sealing and has a leg injured. If Hidden Moth really wants to settle the score with him, it seems like this would be the best time. Otherwise, a Tier Five Medicine Gatherer isn't so easy to deal with."

Wild Phoenix: "Would Hidden Moth do that?"

Gu Chun pondered: "I feel not! But my feeling is useless; it depends on Wan Zhongle's own feeling. The most common mistake people make is to project themselves onto others.

If he puts himself in Wan Zhongle's place, if he were Hidden Moth, he definitely wouldn't pass up this opportunity. So, after leaving the hospital, he'd definitely be on full alert, gathering manpower to set a trap to prevent Hidden Moth."

Wild Phoenix: "Is that why you imposed the maximum penalty, sealing for a year?"

Gu Chun: "Yeah, there's no logic in guarding a thief for a thousand days. Three hundred sixty-five days aren't easy to endure. Since he can stir things up, I'll let him stir himself up properly."

In the midst of talking, they had already returned to the office and sat down. While soaking the tea, Wild Phoenix remarked, "Hopefully, that Hidden Moth can be smart and not fall into this kind of trap.

Hidden Moth is only Hidden Moth in the dark, no one knows where it will appear. If it enters a setup laid by others, it's equivalent to binding its hands and feet."

She rarely took the initiative to carry a cup of tea to Gu Chun and asked, "Earth Master, can you guess who Hidden Moth is?"

Gu Chun quickly shook his head: "I don't know, and I don't want to know. I've said the same to Old Ghost Jiang...what do you think, what kind of person is the current Hidden Moth, and what might they do?"

Wild Phoenix: "I really can't say. Based on the current clues, this person's temperament is too unpredictable, not at all steady, and their style is hard to grasp.

Those people came to Qi Yuan just because He Kao's father was Hidden Moth twenty years ago. But as it turns out, they all got it wrong. Hidden Moth wasn't He Kao at all, nor could it be He Kao.

Actually, that boy He Kao is pretty nice, steady demeanor, good character, and good-looking..."

Gu Chun quickly changed the subject, asking a somewhat strange question: "Elder Ye, if only discussing likes and dislikes, how do you view the current Magic Sect?"

Wild Phoenix: "Me? I certainly have no complaints about the Magic Sect; it's my place to live and exist. But I don't have much good feeling towards certain people in the Magic Sect."

Gu Chun: "The current Hidden Moth probably feels the complete opposite of you. He may have a good impression of certain sorcerers but likely doesn't like the Magic Sect or the entire sorcerer group."

Wild Phoenix: "That's for sure! If you were being held by a handsome guy enjoying life, and suddenly a group of strangers jumped out of nowhere, not only trying to take your treasure and strip you of your superpower but also trying to take your life.

And they all have the same identity; how could you have a good impression of them?"

Gu Chun: "Stop using inappropriate metaphors, like who's holding whom!"

Wild Phoenix picked up her teacup and said, "That's exactly the principle I'm talking about."
