Zhang Caixin was probably the least deserving "second-in-command" imaginable. She only fought for the title to make her presence felt.
Negotiations with the Cai Clan still had to be handled by Red Sister, Yu Qingzhu, or Yang Yuxin.
So Yu Qingzhu handled the matter. Due to her background, she understood such attached arrangements quite well. "Liba Beach doesn't lack True Adepts to guard it. If we let you come guard it, that would be rewarding you instead."
Those words were rather arrogant. No one else from Luo Hua could have said them, but she truly could.
The Cai Clan members were not offended—after all, she was qualified to say that. They replied that she was right, but this True Adept who was currently stabilizing his cultivation was rather pitiful. That branch of the family was indeed poor, so they hoped to give him a job to pay off his debt.
Yu Qingzhu was not unreasonable either, so she said, "Have him keep an eye on our land. The land they bought has no Golden Core cultivator stationed there, although Golden Core True Adepts do come and go."
Logically speaking, those Golden Core cultivators feared nearby Liba Beach and could not possibly cause much trouble. Still, having a Golden Core cultivator stationed there or not made a difference. Keeping one more Golden Core cultivator there might allow them to coordinate with Liba Beach's operations at some point.
This outcome was clearly not what the Cai Clan wanted most, but this was where the Cai Clan's strength lay. They were exceedingly patient in their dealings. Reaching a small objective first was enough to satisfy them; the rest could be slowly worked through.
That Cai Clan disciple was still stabilizing his Golden Core realm, yet he had already secured a job.
