Chapter 188: Leaving the Wanxiang Sect

Lin Qian's words left Lei Qian speechless and equally outraged.

The incident Lei Qian mentioned was well known to him, initiated by the Eight-Armed Sea Clan's recent attempt to purchase battleships.

Initially, some elders of the Wanxiang Sect were in extreme favor of selling the battleships as soon as possible to acquire resources for developing and counterattacking the Coastal State.

However, Ye Xin was consistently against it, insisting that the decision on the sale of the battleships should wait until Lin Qian's return.

Her reasoning was simple—the battleships belonged to Lin Qian himself, and they had no right to decide whether to sell them or not, even herself.

The elders of the Wanxiang Sect felt helpless about Ye Xin's insistence.

After Lin Qian left, the scholar in charge of the battleships only listened to three people, in order of increasing authority: Guard General Lei Qian, Emperor's Teacher Wei Wushuang, and Empress Mother Ye Xin.
