Chapter 390: The Storm is Coming (1)_1
"Isn’t that clear?" Dugu Qianye fiddled with the Token in her hand and said, "With Grandfather and the others here, it’s even less likely they’d see you. So why bother making a futile effort?"
Mo Jingchuan had not expected his difficulty to be so easily resolved by her. She truly was a clever woman.
"Tell me, what is your real purpose for coming here tonight?"
"Actually, my purpose for coming today is very simple and won’t inconvenience you. As I said before, I just want a chance, a chance to return to the clan." Dugu Qianye looked at Mo Jingchuan, smiling faintly as she spoke, "We want to participate in the clan ranking competition. If we rank high, you let us return. If we lose, then naturally we will leave and never bring up returning again."
"You chose today to come to me for a reason, didn’t you?"
"Yes." Dugu Qianye did not deny it.

"With so many people in the family, arriving early would definitely lead to opposition. Even if you were willing, it might not be feasible to agree." Dugu Qianye said mercilessly, "But if they don’t have time to know, and they only find out tomorrow, there naturally won’t be a problem."

True enough, the Mo Family wasn’t his to rule alone; there was the Elders’ Council, and if his decision met with opposition from more than two-thirds of the elders, it could not be carried out. However, if there was no Elders’ Council meeting, then there would naturally be no issue.
"Why should I give you a chance?" asked Mo Jingchuan.
