Murong Gang gazed at Li Fan, thinking this young man truly possessed strong courage.
"Yang Qingshan, I have heard of your deeds, and there are different accounts about their right or wrong. Nonetheless, you indeed killed quite a few people on West Emperor Island, among them Nan Zhengchuan, a cultivator of the West Emperor Palace, and Song Xiang, a steward of the West Emperor Palace."
Beside Li Fan, Luo Qingyan and Meng Hong showed slight changes in their expressions, wondering if Murong Gang, the Great Elder of West Emperor Palace, intended to favor Nan Chen.
"However…"
Murong Gang continued, "On the day of the battle, you achieved commendable feats, slaying Fourth Realm demons without equal, boosting the morale of our cultivators on West Emperor Island. Regardless of the motives for your battle, the outcome was witnessed by all, and this remains an undeniable fact."
"Thus, merits and faults cancel each other out."
