The masked person’s original intention in reporting to their master was to stall for time on this assignment. After all, with the target staying put, they lacked the ability to sneak into the Sword Sect to assassinate a disciple. However, following a single word from their master, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and devise a way to lure the other party out of the sect.
They quickly locked onto a target to exploit: Han Pin of the Han family.
During his trip to the secret realm, Han Pin had gained no benefits whatsoever and had even destroyed his natal sword. He had originally planned to use the sect's influence when the secret realm closed to pressure Jian Dan into compensating him for all her gains from the realm (what a pretty thought). Unfortunately, heaven did not grant his wish; the secret realm closed early due to the appearance of the Zerg.
