If today's events weren't caused by Lu Yiye, it would be fine, since the Law Enforcement Hall often deals with offending people. Team A-5 has offended quite a few people over the years, inevitably leaving some with grudges, waiting for an opportunity to strike and vent their anger.
But if it truly was Lu Yiye, what should be said if this escalates to Lord Department Chief?
Zhou Kui, a physique cultivator at True Lake Level 9, was beaten by a combat cultivator at Level 5? And it happened right under the noses of other Team A-5 members...
If word gets out, it won't sound good; it makes Team A-5 seem too incompetent, and Zhou Kui as the captain would lose face.
Zhou Kui was abruptly enlightened by a remark, his expression shifting unpredictably, and decisively said, "Return to Haotian City!"
As long as Lu Yiye can be heavily punished, losing some face is nothing.
