Sect - Chapter 28: Affectionate Thoughts (1/2)

After leaving the main hall, Su Chen walked with Zhu Xianyao, with Iron Cliff following closely behind

Zhu Xianyao leaned on Su Chen’s shoulder, her heart full of sweetness

Unlike Zhu Yunyan, Zhu Xianyao had no co

Zhu Yunyan needed to consider the face of her clan, while all Zhu Xianyao wanted was love

While the nobles were bitterly fighting to maintain the front, the commoners had parted ways for the sake of adequate food and housing Zhu Xianyao’s situation was soous to this

Ever since she had confirs in Mountain Overlook City, Zhu Xianyao realized this, so she was staunchly deteroal, she had no interest in considering other problems

“I came this time both to see how you are and to see if I can take you back to the Boundless Sect with an to explain how he had established his own sect

In this world, sects were not that rare, but they had very little influence and weren’t all that important The Boundless Sect alone was not much, but the territory of the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain orth paying attention to

“So you’re right on the border of Liaoye! Yet you didn’t tell me earlier or call me over,” Zhu Xianyao said to Su Chen with a hint of unhappiness and anger

“Would you have been able to come if I had told you?” Su Chen chuckled “Look at the situation today They alet me to stay with the Zhu Clan”

Zhu Xianyao pursed her lips “That’s because they see you as important”

“If she saw et aith trying to assassinate you Given how healthy and vibrant your sister looks, I very much question how much your mother really loves you,” Su Chen said cal had sent people to assassinate Zhu Xianyao while she was at West Laina Castle If it weren’t for the fact that Su Chen had , Zhu Xianyao would have died That hat Su Chen was referring to

Zhu Xianyao sighed “My younger sister has always done things with caution There’s no evidence to say that those assassins were sent by her”

“So have you needed evidence to reach the point you are at now?” Su Chen chuckled

Zhu Xianyao had brought a secret back with her that could increase theher status up along with it This was the reason she lived in such a carefree manner

This was the reason why Su Chen was surprised that Zhu Xianling was still out and about It was not sofor sending those assassins”, but reatly increased, and she had returned to get revenge”

The matter of the assassination was just the justification, not the hed “No hter Even though I informed her that what happened at West Laina Castle was very likely related to Zhu Xianling,to believe it All that happened was that she took away some of her authority and stripped her of some power”

“Took away some of her authority and weakened her control a bit? But she seems very carefree next to your mother?”

Zhu Xianyao replied, “If your connections with the outside were severed, ould you do?”

Su Chen instantly understood “I would grasp the internal situation firmly”

The less y they would have People with ao to waste; instead, they would firrasp it and direct it soained an advantage, Zhu Xianling didn’t grow depressed because of it Instead, she did her best to show “respect” to her mother and rope in other clan members As a result, her actions became much more modest and respectful

While Zhu Xianyao was out annexing territory, Zhu Xianling was stirring up trouble on the inside It seemed as if Zhu Xianyao possessed extraordinary influence and authority, but she was unaware that her rapport with the other clanthat she had overlooked her relationshi+ps with others

The more brilliantly she dealt with matters, thethat she couldn’t do anything about

Most ier sister even a little bit

“So” Zhu Xianyao shrugged helplessly, indicating that there was nothing she could do

Su Chen chuckled and didn’t dwell on the topic Instead, he said, “Right, so what’s going on between you and the Rong Clan? It see battle is about to take place”

Zhu Xianyao seeazed off in the distance, as if she was searching for so

After some time, she finally helplessly said, “I have no idea”

“No idea?” Su Chen was taken aback

Su Chen wasn’t expecting that response

Zhu Xianyao said, “The Zhu Clan has been fighting with the Rong Clan for ht for no particular reason, and the only difference is how large the conflict gets This ti Clan has started to viciously provoke us They flattened a number of the Zhu Clan’s stores and even sent some people to take over soun to attack our er and finally retaliated

“The Zhu Clan needed to bear it?” Su Chen chuckled He didn’t believe Zhu Xianyao one bit He was not so naive as to think that this person by his side was definitely the good guy

Unexpectedly, Zhu Xianyao replied, “The Zhu Clan really did endure this time”

This was the truth, but not because they were pacifists, but because of their bloodlines

Even though Zhu Xianyao had brought back ht of the Zhu Clan’s bloodlines, it would take some time for them to become truly effective

As such, the Zhu Clan didn’t actually want to start a fight at this moht didn’tas one party wanted to fight, that was enough

This was the reason the situation had devolved to that point by the ti battle like this breaks out, I’ht?” su Chen asked

“Of course Even though the Zhu Clan and the Rong Clan have never seen eye to eye, and we have fought e scale war because people have hadClan wouldn’t go crazy for no reason,” Su Chen said faintly
