The dark-haired child in front of him buried his head in his lap, hiding his face and thus, his expression could not be seen clearly. Gu Yan could only stretch out his hand to touch the child's head and gently patted his trembling back.

He had, after all, promised not to do anything that would affect the sect. That day when he arrived at the main hall of the Zhong Xuan Sect, he directly shouldered the blame for not properly disciplining his own disciple and because of that, was willing to accept the punishment on his behalf.

From the Zhong Xuan Sect's point of view, killing such a useless disciple would not affect the Guan Lan sect in the slightest. In the end, it was simply a life for a life.

However, after the exchange, they would instead lose a talented disciple.

It was impossible not to demand compensation from the Guan Lan Sect especially since it concerned the sect head's beloved daughter. Zhong Xuan sect would definitely not be able to swallow this injustice.

Now the person's master said that he was willing to take his disciple's place and be punished for his crimes, hoping that they would give Jiang Tan a chance--.

If the person who came did not have any status, wanting them to make such a compromise was simply a fantasy. However, the person replacing him was one of the Guan Lan Sect's peak masters and also a once-in-a-century rare talent, there was room for negotiations.

As mentioned before, killing a disciple with only mediocre talent had no effect on the Guan Lan Sect. However, if this was replaced by crippling a talented person, it was a completely different story.

It was not easy for the Zhong Xuan Sect to rise up to become one of the more prominent martial sects in the cultivation world. Apart from the Yun Yu sect, there was no other sect that could compete with them.

They had been suppressed by the Guan Lan Sect for over hundreds of years in the past, it was impossible to not have any lingering resentment towards them. Since it has come to this, they would naturally not be able to sit back and watch as the Guan Lan Sect rises to glory once more. Now that the opportunity was knocking on the door, they would of course, not let it go.

Letting the other person cripple his own cultivation was better than them personally killing a disciple. A person who destroyed his own cultivation would never be able to cultivate again and would thus, no longer hold any threat towards their sect. Moreover, they would also not have to bear the notoriety of killing another person.

There was only one way to destroy one's cultivation. Generally, the elders of the Sect would only punish disciples who have committed grave sins in this manner.
