Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Stoking the Fire (Fourth update)

Gu Youyou was caught off guard by Zhang Chi's words.

Goodness, I thought you were gearing up for a fight!

She had already thought up of her techniques, but Zhang Chi was just thinking about running away?

Is that reasonable?

"Why run away? Why not just kill them all?"

"Killing would reveal our true strength, but if we run, they'd just think I'm a good runner. Isn't that different?"

"Moreover, they must be coming specifically for me, or why else would Hua Long Palace randomly target Sword Sect.

If I run, they would have trouble dealing with Sword Sect."

Zhang Chi quickly analyzed the pros and cons to Gu Youyou, the actions of Yin Xun and Hua Long Palace were quite straightforward.

Their aim was to create a fait accompli. Once Sword Sect was destroyed, they'd just claim that Sword Sect resisted and the matter would be over, with nobody to redress their grievances.

But if someone managed to escape, Yin Xun would have to consider public opinion.
