Heavenly Court's Past, the Theory of Two Factions

Hearing the young girl's words, Long Zhi and Chen Zheng both fell into a long silence.

It was not that they thought there was anything wrong with the white-robed girl's idea.

After all, now that the demons occupying such a blessed Grotto-Heaven had been put to death, no cultivator in the world would readily let such an ownerless land slip through their fingers.

Leaving aside its abundant spiritual energy and breathtaking scenery.

What truly made people green with envy was the chance to monopolize the incense offerings of an entire region.

One had to know that even Immortal Gods holding high fifth- or sixth-rank offices in the Heavenly Court, if they were within the Nine Provinces, could never enjoy such unfettered access to the incense offerings of a land.

But the problem was...

Seeing that the two remained silent for so long, with an indescribable strangeness in their expressions.

Jiang Yuechu could not help frowning slightly.

Based on what she knew of Long Zhi, the other woman was by no means some rigid, inflexible pedant. She had always acted with reason and knew when to advance and when to retreat.

If that was the case, she should not object to Jiang Yuechu claiming this ownerless land.

The reason Jiang Yuechu had asked was merely to see whether the other woman had any suggestions...

But now, it seemed...

There was another angle to this?

With that thought.

Curiosity in her eyes, she looked toward Long Zhi.

"What is inappropriate about it?"

Long Zhi hesitated for several breaths, as though she had made an immense decision, before slowly speaking. "Originally, I should not be saying these things..."

Only because the other woman had saved both her and Chen Zheng's lives twice did she dare to risk breaking taboos and reveal a little.
