Chapter 1097: Biased Old Man
“Elder Su, our Zhang family had not returned to the sect yet at the time. If we had, I naturally wouldn’t have done this kind of thing.” Zhang Shizhao also felt that he was a little too happy with this arrangement, so he explained embarrassedly.
In fact, Su Yifinger just felt that Zhang Shizhao was being a little too shameless with his smug smile. But he knew that the Zhang family had only struck while the iron was hot, which was something Golden Pill Sect had done. So there wasn’t much of a difference between them.
“With such a mess, even the big forces like Shadow Kills Gang and Death Breaking Gang didn’t care?” Su Yifinger didn’t want Zhang Shizhao to be too embarrassed, so he changed the topic.
Zhang Shizhao shook his head but didn’t say anything.
“Maybe they just want these forces to kill each other. Even if they had battled to decide who is better, either party would have definitely suffered heavy casualties. When that time comes, they naturally won’t have the strength to compete with the four big forces for the treasures. Moreover, the spiritual energy in Qianzhong Ridge isn’t abundant, and there are more and more people each day. One day, someone will threaten their position. So they used this opportunity to weaken the strength of other forces. Why not kill two birds with one stone? If it were me, I would have done the same,” said Ling Chuxi.
“Yes, that’s what I thought too. That’s why I didn’t want to get involved in that mess,” Zhang Shizhao looked at Ling Chuxi in surprise and admiration. He had guessed it, but was too embarrassed to say it in front of Su Yizhi. He didn’t expect Ling Chuxi to think of it so quickly.
He could think of this because he had worked hard in Qianzhong Ridge all his life and was used to mutual deception. For Ling Chuxi to also be able to think so, what kind of wisdom did this young sect leader have? What exactly did she experience to have such foresight and skill? Zhang Shizhao grew a little curious. How did Ling Chuxi grow up to be like this? What kind of person was she?
“Since they want to make Qianzhong Ridge chaotic, then let’s add fuel to the fire and take advantage of this opportunity to fish in troubled waters. We’ll use the name of Sword Heart Gang to subdue some forces and strengthen the hidden card of Golden Pill Sect.” Ling Chuxi strategized.
“Good, good. I didn’t think that Chuxi would actually think of this. I really didn’t think of it at all,” said Su Yizhi with a smile. He was exceptionally gratified. “This is a very good idea. Let’s do it!”
Zhang Shishao was stunned.
Su Yizhi had initially been opposed to Zhang Shizhao’s earlier strategy of scheming, even if it was just a little since it was in the name of the sect. However, when Ling Chuxi basically proposed that they join in the scheme, he approved it? He laughed so hard that his face almost bloomed. Su Yizhi wasn’t favouring one over the other, was he? Moreover, Ling Chuxi basically suggested quite an insidious idea. And yet, Su Yizhi was beaming proudly. How could he be proud or happy about it?
Zhang Shizhao finally understood. This old man was extremely protective and biased. As long as it was Ling Chuxi’s idea, everything was right. If it was someone else, they would have to talk about benevolence and morality. Hmph! Biased Old Man! Or rather, Su Yizhi’s trust in Ling Chuxi was truly unconditional.
“If that’s the case, why don’t we just subdue a few more forces and become one of the top ten? We can go to the ancient ruins and see what good stuff there are.” Gongxi Kuangdao interrupted.
