Chapter 279: Just This Simple

And on the side of the Three Major Families, they found this proposal even more appealing.

Just think about it, wiping out the Duan Family would likely require a considerable amount of resources and entail massive losses, but helping Duan Shaojie ascend to the position of Family Head would be much simpler.

Especially when Chu Ge is the one dealing with the Poison Sect, the largest obstacle, it can be said that they hardly spent anything and gained half of the Duan Family's assets for nothing!

With such a premise, subsequent negotiations went a lot smoother. In less than half an hour, every detail had been meticulously planned.

Of course, it was basically just the two Old Masters and Xiahou Longhu negotiating with Mr. Duan, while Chu Ge was merely an observer since he had no interest in such mundane resource struggles.

After seeing off the four individuals, Chu Ge stood in the pavilion with his hands behind his back, gazing at the scenery around him in silence.
