As part of a community with shared interests in the Cyan Yuan Sect, Yang Chan naturally understood Gu An's intentions and wouldn't lean too far to one side.
The Sect Leader, of course, wanted both reputation and benefits.
The Cyan Yuan Sect was his root; he couldn't very well undermine his own foundation. Otherwise, he would surely be recorded on the Cyan Yuan Sect's pillar of shame for all time.
But he couldn't give nothing, either, or he would offend Liu Xuan, the new Peak Master of the Merak Sacred Land.
Summoning a group to discuss the matter also served this purpose.
Naturally, Yang Chan saw all this with perfect clarity.
"Does anyone have any other opinions?"
Gu An's gaze swept over the other Hall Masters, Elders, and officials, feigning a desire for collective discussion.
After Yang Chan spoke, these people had also guessed Gu An's thoughts.
It didn't take long for everyone to reach a consensus.
