[okay but SONG LAN, WHY DIDN'T YOU LEAD WITH THIS??
Seonho had been kind of expecting the worst, but he didn't expect THAT... Is it a good thing this is over the phone so Song Lan can't see Seonho's startled expression? It probably comes through in his voice well enough,]
...I understand. [in that Seonho will stay away -- how can he even begin to understand Song Lan's rage?
Perhaps he can, to some degree. Rage is all Seonho's ever known, but the person who hurt the people he loves most in this life has only ever been himself.]
May your sword be swift, and your judgement resolute. I will stay by Xingchen's side in the meantime.
[he knows death isn't permanent here, but there's no stopping one's anger.]
[With a deep sigh, releasing the heaviness of his heart, he knew he is placing Xingchen under stress. It was selfish of him to ask him of this, it really was...
But he can't let the death of his Master and disciples slide while Xue Yang lives and breathes, calling the massacre and their torture "fun"]
...You have my thanks, Seanho. I know I'm asking a lot. I'll make it up to you somehow.
[His communication gave a soft click to disconnect. Space, he needs it right now...and time]
