"Now, with what you're doing, I can already foresee the situation that will unfold."

Starlight Commander spoke with a pitiful expression, "Next, Deputy Director Fang will announce the news about the Heavenly Escort Bureau. And our bureau will instantly become extremely famous, the kind of fame that makes you red-hot! After the news about our bureau spreads, we'll essentially become a target. Even if you don't go out to inform or seek revenge, and even if you don't go out to fight against the Only Righteous Sect, they will still come knocking on our door."

"But the headquarters and the various major branches of the sect will still come looking for trouble."

Starlight Commander's face turned pale, "If you don't kill them, they'll kill you. And if you do kill them, it's basically the same as betraying the sect."

"You tell me, am I being forced to become a traitor by you all? And a traitor who... hasn't even betrayed anyone! I did nothing wrong, just eating white rice at home, and I'm suddenly a traitor... Who can I reason with?"

"Now you want me to come up with a solution, how am I supposed to do that? Am I some kind of deity? The mess you've created has already turned into shit, do you expect me to turn it back into steamed buns?"

Starlight Commander paced back and forth, moving swiftly.

Like a caged beast trapped in its enclosure.

"You can go back to your clans and be done with it... No, that's not right... Even if you go back, you'll still face death. With so many people informed about you, and your identities exposed, who will die if not you?"

Starlight Commander paused.

The young masters and young ladies' faces turned even more bitter.

"But what does your life or death have to do with me? Whether you live or die is up to you! Even if you die, it's your own doing."

Starlight Commander roared in anger, "But why should I suffer the consequences? Why should I be unlucky because of you? I've been a demon lord for so many years, enduring beatings and curses, treated like dog shit, but I've never felt innocent!"

"But today, you've made me experience this novel feeling of innocence! I truly feel like I've lived a life, damn it."

"Following you, indeed, all sorts of strange things can happen."

"I've seen it all, everyone. Truly impressive!"

Starlight Commander clenched his fists in a tragic gesture, "Everyone, you're amazing!"

Everyone felt ashamed.

The shame was overwhelming.

Zhao Wu Shang and Zheng Yunqi even felt a strong urge to commit suicide as an apology.

This situation was indeed a complete mess!

Starlight Commander spoke with reason: Today's events, what do they have to do with the One Mind Sect, the branch office, or the Starlight Commander? Who did they offend?

You came, you were informed on, you sought revenge, you informed others, you vented your anger, and then you messed things up.

And then... I ended up suffering the consequences with you!

"I just wanted to manage the branch office..." Starlight Commander whimpered.

Despairing to the point of tears.

"How can I will explain this to the Sect Master..."

Starlight Commander lamented.

"How am I supposed to deal with these aristocratic elders and matriarchs?"

Starlight Commander was going crazy.

The crowd hung their heads low.

Their faces filled with shame.

They felt an inexplicable sense of pity for Starlight Commander.

After years of hard work, it was all ruined in an instant by their actions. It was truly unfair to him...

Zheng Yunqi coughed and said, "Commander, on my way back, I thought long and hard about this. We were wrong, and there's no reversing what's been done. But this matter must still be resolved."

"Even if we commit suicide as an apology, or if you behead us right now, it's too late to do anything at this point."

Zheng Yunqi gathered her courage, her face flushing with embarrassment.

But...

"We really need to come up with a plan quickly, or once this situation escalates, our reputation will be tarnished, and our position will become even more precarious."

Starlight Commander glared at them with a 'desperate wolf, hungry devil' look in his eyes, "What plan? My head is spinning, I can't think of any solution."

The crowd: "..."

We feel the same.

We're just as confused as you are.

After a long pause, Starlight Commander stood up and said fiercely, "Wait!"

Then, Starlight Commander left.

The sound of rushing water could be heard from outside, as Starlight Commander washed his head.

Using cold water in this weather...

The crowd felt a chill, even without the cold water.

Then, they saw Starlight Commander with wet hair, saying, "You should wash up too, try to clear your minds. Zheng Yunqi's words are worth considering. The situation has already occurred, and we can't avoid it, so let's brainstorm and discuss how to respond."

"Yes!"

The crowd felt invigorated!

They rushed out to wash up.

Finally, they felt a sense of relief.

What they feared the most was Starlight Commander's uncontrollable rage leading to murder.

But now, it seemed that although Starlight Commander was furious, he had clearly calmed down.

Since they were seeking a solution...

They should think hard.

A moment later.

The men and women entered, their hair and faces still wet from the cold winter bath.

It had to be said that a cold water bath in winter was indeed invigorating, and everyone was now wide awake.

Starlight Pavilion Master sat on his throne, his expression unusually amiable, and he gestured for everyone to take a seat.

The group sat down nervously, barely touching the chairs with their bottoms.

No one knew what the Starlight Pavilion Master was planning.

The Starlight Pavilion Master spoke with a hint of melancholy, "Things have already come to this, what's the point of killing you? Maybe the person I kill will come up with a good solution... Right, sit down, and let's think of a way."

Only then did everyone relax, hanging their heads in shame as they sat down.

The Starlight Pavilion Master said, "Let's organize this matter and consider the possible consequences."

The group's spirits lifted.

"In simple terms, regardless of the reason, Deputy Director Fang has acknowledged our escort agency. Then, he wants to promote us openly as a role model."

The Starlight Pavilion Master's voice became strange as he said the word 'role model': "Tsk tsk, role model, I never dreamed that I, a demon lord, could become a role model in the Guardian Hall."

Everyone's faces also showed confusion.

They wanted to laugh but dared not.

"This is the cause, but let's not mention the consequences. What we need to consider is the aftermath of this already established fact."

Zheng Yunqi spoke fluently, "The consequence is... Once we're exposed, the power of our sect on White Cloud Continent is no match for the Guardian Hall. If we confront them head-on, we'll lose on their absolute territory."

"So... Their target will be us. Wave after wave, they'll first eliminate us, the 'external supporting forces' in their eyes. This is inevitable."

"We'll face countless enemies."

"Even if Night Demon Sect's Liu Master and others testify for us, it's basically useless."

"They also know this is One Mind Sect's branch, so if they get rid of us, they'll rise. They won't even help us explain."

"The situation is dire. This is the first point."

"The second point is our future escort missions, which will face hundreds of times more trouble than before. Losing the escort means losing our lives, this is foreseeable. And it'll be at the hands of our own people. This is imaginable."

"The third point is that you, Starlight Pavilion Master, will face the blame from One Mind Sect. This matter needs to be explained to the sect, and even then, it might not be understood."

"The fourth consequence is that once our families learn of this, we'll be unlucky, and they'll suffer too."

Zheng Yunqi had clearly thought through these possibilities countless times.

"Yes, the Submissive's current situation is like this. Our biggest weakness is that we've already reported and eliminated fifteen people! Those fifteen are undeniable."

"So, with the established fact, saying we report because we were reported is unbelievable. Although we were reported but no one died, but they were all killed by our report... This is also a huge flaw."

As Zheng Yunqi spoke, everyone nodded.

Zheng Yunqi listed over ten possible consequences.

Everyone's hearts sank as they listened, feeling like they were falling into an abyss.

From Zheng Yunqi's words, it was clear that there was no room for luck.

"And the opponents' cultivation is getting higher and higher, we can't keep holding them off."

Zheng Yunqi sighed, "Pavilion Master, these are all the matters I've thought of."

The Starlight Pavilion Master smiled through tears, "You only thought of the possible outcomes? How to solve each of these impending issues, you don't want to use your brain?"

Zheng Yunqi felt ashamed, not because he hadn't thought of it, but because he truly couldn't find a way out.

"I hope Pavilion Master can provide a solution."

The group was young and inexperienced, now relying on the cunning and resourceful Starlight Pavilion Master, a demon lord.

The Starlight Pavilion Master stood up, his face grave, hands behind his back.

"First, this matter is unavoidable. That is, whether we like it or not, whether we're willing or not, we'll fight our people. A life-and-death battle."

Everyone nodded heavily.

Indeed.

"So, there's a group that must die!" The Starlight Pavilion Master's words were final.

"Yes!"

Everyone nodded again, no one disagreed.

In a life-and-death battle, how could there be no deaths?

"So, on this point, let's consider the positive side."

The Starlight Pavilion Master spoke.

"The positive side?"
