Chapter 938: Coming Home to Roost
Yun Sheng suddenly smiled and looked at Gong Tianjian. "Then I'll trouble you to explain our Elysian Immortal Palace's difficulties to the Southern Divine Dragon Realm. Moreover, if you wish to take action yourself, I won't stop you. As the chief of the Joint Law Enforcement Division and the face of our Elysian Immortal Palace, sending you into the fray should be more than enough as a show of our sincerity."
Gong Tianjian's expression changed slightly upon hearing this. She said, "Senior Brother, you've misunderstood. Everything I have was given by our master and the Elysian Immortal Palace. I was born a member of the Elysian Immortal Palace, and I'll die as one. Everything I'm doing now is for the sake of the Elysian Immortal Palace."
"You don't need to explain. My father and I have never doubted you. This is merely a minor ideological conflict. There's no need to make a big deal out of it. Feel free to act according to your judgment; I support you," Yun Sheng said calmly.
"Thank you for your understanding, Senior Brother."
Gong Tianjian no longer wished to say more.
She understood what Yun Sheng meant. He wouldn't stop her from choosing aggressive tactics like the Southern Divine Dragon Realm. If the results were fruitful, he would personally step forward to commend her and claim the credit. But if anything unforeseen happened, he would sever ties with her to protect himself.
Gong Tianjian could choose to avoid this by aligning with Yun Sheng's stance and refraining from forcefully participating in the ambush with the Dragon Devil Clan. But she clearly didn't want to! Her disciple Zhao Canglan's miserable state and her own relationship with the Dragon Devil Clan were things she couldn't ignore.
"That brat is indeed defying the heavens in the Grand Assembly Arena," Gong Tianjian thought. "However, the future landscape of the Heavenly Deity Stellar River isn't something a mere youngster can change. The more conspicuous he becomes, the more people will want to kill him. In such a grand situation, the Yun Clan still chooses a conservative approach. Truly..."
Gong Tianjian could only sneer inwardly.
