Li Yunshang's voice was indifferent, making her appear unfeeling.
Ao Tang made a mistake and should bear the consequences.
It also signaled to the world that Li Yunshang was never one for emotions.

Yuqing Peak, Gu Wen's residence.
To help or not to help?
Gu Wen put down the letter, sinking into a moment of contemplation.
Although Ao Tang initially did not support him, even siding with the Zhao family, he had not harmed Gu Wen's interests. Instead, he had saved him from death several times after seeing his talents.
He was like Jun Yan, only helping when one showed enough value.
Gu Wen also acknowledged this favor.
"Shall I help you refuse?"
Chi Yu Zi leaned over to take a look, seeming unable to recognize the boundaries between her and Gu Wen, even wanting to read his letter.
"They've come knocking; it wouldn't be good to refuse outright. But neither can I agree directly. I'm unsure of the misdeeds that led the master to expel him from the sect."
