Unfortunately, before Lin Hui could even set out on his planned trip to the royal capital, he received news of internal turmoil within Black Cloud.
This time, it had nothing to do with the three rival Original Blood families from before. Rather, they were fighting amongst themselves.
The Xie and Zhang Families, rivals of the Gongsun Family, were dissatisfied with the latter's candidate ascending to the position of City Lord. They each sent a group of elders to visit the Qingfeng Dao and air their grievances.
Lin Hui didn't just consider Gongsun Wuhen, but also examined the candidates put forth by the other two families.
But the other two candidates were a real piece of work. A few casual questions were all it took to see their problematic inclinations.
One planned to implement a law-of-the-jungle system after taking office, where the strong would devour talented but weaker individuals to solidify their own power.
