Du You was taken aback and exclaimed, "The Twelve Heavenly Shuttle, isn't that the Dharma Treasure the Sect Leader used in his youth?"
"Indeed, the Ruyi Divine Shuttle is modeled after the Twelve Heavenly Shuttle, crafted by Elder Sun Zhiyan from our sect. Elder Sun is the Sect Leader's ninth disciple and a pillar of the master-disciple lineage. For Zhang Yan to obtain one of the Divine Shuttles indicates his close ties to the Sect Leader's faction. Given your unique status, it is unwise to kill him at this moment."
Du Bo laid out the underlying implications, pointing out Zhang Yan's probable background. It was not a matter of inability but a matter of impossibility.
Any involvement with the Mingcang Sect Leader complicates the situation beyond the individual. Du You, nurtured since childhood as the future pillar of his noble family, understood this logic clearly.
