Chapter 1403 - 1402

Chapter 1403: Chapter 1402

"It’s still too early for Changle to hold power, and the people of Pengge won’t allow him to," Beisitian said.

The Gong Family siblings certainly understood this issue; unlike other clan sects, the Pengge Sect couldn’t serve as a guardian for Jing Changle.

This means that even if Jing Changle were to hold power in the future, he would only be his own guardian.

"What is Madam Bei’s intention?" Gong Chengyan asked.

Beisitian lowered her gaze, "I think it would be better to let him return to the Pengge Sect for now, and then proceed slowly."

The Gong Family siblings were smart people; they understood these words immediately.

Jing Changle should return, not in the capacity of a power holder, without showing any signs of striving for power, and even keep secret his ability to execute a Spiritual Talisman. He should return discreetly, integrate internally first, and then gradually make those in power less wary of him.

The current ruler of the Pengge Sect does not buy into the rhetoric of the Peng Pavilion Pride at all. They even believe that without the so-called Peng Pavilion Pride, they wouldn’t have attracted the attention of the Nie Family and suffered destruction many years ago, nearly crippled.

Because of this discourse, the sentiment within the Pengge regarding the Peng Pavilion Pride is ambiguous. Some even hold a hostile stance toward the Peng Pavilion Pride.

This is why, when Jing Changle initially expressed a desire not to return, the Gong Family siblings didn’t insist or even beg. If he returned, he would be consumed completely by those ruthless individuals.

If not for this current matter, the Gong Family siblings would have preferred Jing Changle to return after turning eighteen.

Sadly, there aren’t so many ’ifs.’

Now what they can do is try their best to ensure Changle isn’t persecuted by his sect.

The method proposed by Beisitian is probably the best solution at the moment, for which the Gong Family siblings are very grateful. If she wasn’t sincerely concerned about Jing Changle, she wouldn’t have gone out of her way to find a solution.

Perhaps having Qingyu’s support behind them is why the Gong Family siblings feel somewhat reassured; at least Jing Changle and they are not fighting alone.

The incident involving the Nie Family’s eldest miss was briefly circulated before being overshadowed by even more explosive news.

The rumors about Qingyu secretly harboring the Peng Pavilion Pride have spread like wildfire.

Many are discussing this issue, questioning Qingyu’s motives. Why hide the Peng Pavilion Pride? Is it dissatisfaction with Pengge, not wanting them to develop, or fearing the Peng Pavilion Pride might eclipse the Child of Qingyu?

There are even rumors suggesting the Child of Qingyu and Peng Pavilion Pride seem close, but are actually raising the Peng Pavilion Pride to render him useless.

All sorts of rumors have scattered like dandelions in the wind, overwhelming everyone.

Although rumors are rife, neither Qingyu nor Pengge have responded to the matter, leaving the outside world guessing wildly for the truth to be revealed.

Such matters must eventually be addressed; this isn’t like the entertainment industry where things can just be brushed aside.

After the matter arose, the current ruler of Pengge, Sun Zhancheng, visited Qingyu for the first time. It’s polite to say it was a visit; it might be more accurate to call it a confrontation.

Sun Zhancheng, in his fifties, looks like someone in their forties, with a square face, mustache under his nose, small but spirited eyes, a low nasal bridge, somewhat flat. Not handsome at all, even less than the average person, but he has a very vibrant spirit.
