Wen Nong Nong naturally knew that he was willing to let the matter go because of Wen Ting Yun. Judging from what he had said earlier, she knew that he was a short-tempered old man.
If he refuses to give up, it will be a troublesome matter.
Seeing that he wasn't going to pursue the matter, she breathed a sigh of relief, since she was the one who had been impolite first and had no grounds for complaint.
However, she really couldn't agree with what the elder said.
She wanted to absorb some power to pave the way for the future, but she never intended to have any power that treated human life like dirt, harmed the innocent, and couldn't distinguish between good and evil.
After thinking for a moment, she earnestly said, "Everyone, there is more to the Crimson Feather Pavilion than just killing people to restore its prestige."
“Our Chiyu Tower has always been engaged in murder and killing. If we don’t do this business, what other way do we have to go?” someone scoffed, not taking it seriously at all.
"Exactly! If assassins don't kill, what's the point of their existence? Employers pay us to solve lives. If you don't kill, why would they spend the money?" someone echoed.
"Who are you, and how dare you point fingers at our Chiyu Tower?" Someone realized what was happening and immediately questioned her identity.
Upon hearing this, the others realized what was going on and said, "Who are you, kid? State your name right now!"
Wen Tingyun immediately said, "He is my younger brother, one of my own. He will assist me in handling the affairs of Chiyu Tower in the future."
Upon hearing this, the elders' attitudes softened slightly, but they were still somewhat dissatisfied with her previous outrageous remarks.
"Although they were brought back by the Lord, they have no right to interfere with the future development of our Crimson Feather Pavilion."
Upon hearing this, Wen Tingyun was somewhat annoyed and was about to say something, but was stopped by Wen Nongnong's gaze.
She was not annoyed, but said calmly, "I know that what I just said has displeased you elders, but please listen to me. If I said something wrong, you can simply ignore me."
In the elders' eyes, she was so young, what insights could she possibly have? She was just trying to attract attention. But since she was the younger brother of the lord, they had to suppress their impatience and said with a slight disdain, "You can speak first."
“I know that our Crimson Feather Tower has always been in the business of killing for money. In the past, we were a famous assassin organization in the martial arts world, and people were terrified of us. Anyone who heard the name of our Crimson Feather Tower would be in awe and retreat,” Wen Nongnong said slowly.
Upon hearing this, the elders were all lost in their memories.
Back in the day, they were so powerful...
But what Wen Nongnong said next brought them back to reality.
"But now, our Crimson Feather Pavilion has long lost its former glory. In the martial world, there is almost no place for our Crimson Feather Pavilion to stand. I can understand the eagerness of all the elders to restore the prestige of the Crimson Feather Pavilion, but to restore the prestige, we must start a bloodbath. That will not only fail to restore the prestige of our Crimson Feather Pavilion, but will also leave us with a notorious reputation."
"Killing for money is what ordinary assassin organizations do. If our Crimson Feather Tower wants to regain its former glory, we should find a different path. If we don't act now, we won't act now; but if we do, we'll make a stunning debut."
The elders fell silent upon hearing this.
After a moment, someone still couldn't help but question: "So, according to you, does that mean our Crimson Feather Tower is going to retire from the assassin business and withdraw from the martial arts world forever?"
Wen Nongnong's gaze slowly swept across the entire scene as she said unhurriedly, "Killing is of course necessary, but we should only kill those who deserve to die. If we kill them well, it will be more effective than killing a hundred or eighty innocent people at once. It won't be difficult for our Crimson Feather Pavilion to make a name for itself."
