The Left and Right Supervisors came together to see Yan Guzhi, pleading, "If we continue the search, it will lead to deaths! We beg your grace, my lord, allow them to rest for a few days before searching further!"
Yan Guzhi looked down and saw the officials of the Shanglin Garden exhausted, unable to persist, and thus said, "Rest for two days."
The Left Supervisor hesitated and said, "My lord, to be honest, I believe that even if we continue searching, it's unlikely they are alive. The underworld is teeming with ghost monsters, extremely dangerous. The heavy yin energy corrodes their own cultivation, decaying their physical bodies. Even if we rescue them today, they might be crippled."
Yan Guzhi's eye twitched, recalling Zhang Fuzheng's stern face, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Alive or dead, we must see them!"
The Left and Right Supervisors had no choice but to withdraw.
Two days later, the officials of the Shanglin Garden recovered their spirits and continued the search.
