Sometimes.
Some people, even if they're weak, still feel the need to jump out and act tough.
But they have to pay the price for that.
Sometimes, that price is your life.
The furious monk from the Buddhist Sect was like that.
But he didn't really have a choice.
If he didn't step up—
If he just stood by and let the folding fan guy get killed—
Then those plans the Buddhist Sect's been cooking up for tens of thousands of years? Poof, all gone in one shot.
Down the drain!
If he dies making a move, then at least it becomes a bargaining chip for the Buddhist Sect.
After all, he sacrificed himself to save the folding fan kid.
Even if the folding fan guy ends up dead,
The folks from the Upper World still wouldn't kick the Buddhist Sect out just like that.
Out of respect for the gesture, they'd probably help the Buddhist Sect out a bit.
The furious old monk isn't stupid; for the sake of the Buddhist Sect, he willingly gave his life.
