Pang Xiu gently stroked the brim of his hat with a large hand. "I’ve crossed paths with Emperor Old Man a few times. Though our acquaintance is shallow, I hold him in genuine respect. He is a hero—a man of great depth. He raised several fine disciples, and raised them well; in that, I am inferior to him."
"Emperor Old Man is a man who protects his own, and in that regard, I am not much different. These old bones of mine still carry some weight if I push them. I did not kill the Ninth Young Master outright, and I think you know the reason why."
"I have vented enough of my anger. When it comes down to it, it was my own failure to discipline my kin. From this day forward, the feud between the disciples of Emperor Old Man and the Pang family is wiped clean."
