Sure enough, just as everyone had guessed, Thirty Flow had no intention of letting Yang An off so easily.
An External Affairs Elder killing an Internal Affairs Elder—regardless of whether it was during a critical time of war—was a precedent that could absolutely not be set.

But once it happened, this precedent had to be stamped out to prevent the Sect's morale from collapsing.
