Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 2690: Chapter 2685: Saintess Project

The road to becoming a king is so long and tortuous.

Although theoretically the next Family Head, Miss Liushuang is still quite far from that position.

Even though she has never met the Regent King who assists her mother with her duties, high-tier extraordinaries typically have a long prime in these times.

And his attitude towards the next Family Head would inevitably be ambiguous.

The Gospel Group’s achievement is essentially letting Miss Liushuang truly come ashore, establishing her position in the power distribution, and avoiding most risks of premature death.

To truly reclaim what "belongs to her" is perhaps overthinking it.

That’s why she sighed earlier, her opinions may not be taken seriously.

It’s also why Fu Qian reminded her that not getting involved might be the best choice.

Purely from a personal interest perspective, if the Ji Family really steps into a pit blindly, it could be a huge opportunity on Miss Liushuang’s path to becoming a king.

If the Night Watchman out of anger directly kills the current Family Head, everything will become much simpler.

Unfortunately, Miss Liushuang’s desire for power is indeed not strong, having the Gospel Group as a guarantee for her mother’s safety, her ambition is relatively mild.

Compared to controlling a crippled top-level group, she’s more inclined to issue an early warning.

As for such thoughts, Fu Qian clearly respects her choice, with no intention of persuading her.

You must be brave enough to let young people make decisions. The purpose of the group has never been to ensure the leader’s will is followed impeccably, but to help young people’s whims find direction.

For instance, even with Miss Liushuang’s idealistic ideas, there is still a proposed solution to consider — the Rebirth Club.

A declaration as the next Family Head is not enough, isn’t there also the identity of the Saintess of the Rebirth Club?

As an organization that has recently gained fame, especially after exhibiting its prowess in Silver Mist Manor, it is undoubtedly a weighty external factor.

"Understood... But there seems to be a problem here; the role the Rebirth Club plays in this conflict appears to have always been somewhat ambiguous."

Sure enough, Miss Liushuang fell into contemplation, but when she spoke again there was no blind optimism.

Moreover, even with Wen Li right beside her, she did not avoid mentioning the Rebirth Club, evidently trusting Professor Fu as she trusts herself.

...

Indeed.

Fu Qian did not feel any displeasure due to Miss Liushuang’s words, rather he felt the group meeting is increasingly on track.

Actually, the party’s concern is not without reason; the identity of the Saintess of the Rebirth Club indeed grants her extra attention within the Ji Family, but the organization’s essence is somewhat ambiguous.

Including in the current conflict, it can be said it also has a crucial influence.

For instance, the initial spark, the intelligence concerning Emperor Yasui, was shared by the club with the Ji Family, then shared by the Ji Family with the Sirens.

At this time, emphasizing the identity of the Saintess of the Rebirth Club, indeed does make what she says more impactful, but standing from the perspective of the Ji Family, inevitably causes people to think more.

"That’s right; the role the Rebirth Club plays in the entire event is indeed ambiguous, easily causing people to think more."

He said this, facing such concerns, Fu Qian simply kept his eyes on Miss Liushuang, repeating the contents, agreeing without giving any opinion.

"I understand now, that’s exactly what they want..."

Sure enough, the good student has high perception, faced with Professor Fu’s laid-back demeanor, Miss Liushuang immediately understood.

"Whether believers or not, my statement will represent the stance of the Rebirth Club, and this will be an important reference."

Although the words all contain wearisome stakes, Ji Liushuang’s gaze remains clear, obviously still wanting to maintain the original plan.

What’s more comforting is that the plan seems to achieve better results than imagined.

Regarding the Rebirth Club, the Ji Family clearly has a very unique perception.

On one hand unable to figure out why the next Family Head suddenly has the background over there, on the other hand, there is a direct stake mentioned earlier — the spark of conflict.

If the Ji Family fully engages now, is it the aim of the Rebirth Club?

It can be said this concern is certain to exist and quite easily develops into layered psychological gamuts.

So even if the next Family Head states no support for full engagement, it inevitably raises various understandings, with few truly believing it comes from the heart.

But merely this passive stance suffices; ultimately it’s information of a brake nature.

After a round of entangled gaming, likely it can pour some cold water.

"I’ll provide feedback quickly, possibly make a special trip back, also visit mother."

Quickly deciding, Miss Liushuang is already planning her itinerary.

Ji Xue?

Just heard the name, never seen the person.

And her words easily remind Fu Qian of the "Last Words" within the Angel of Comfort, and Brother’s Last Words’ young mother walking in the woods.

Though relative to that Princess Ji, Fu Qian is more interested in the walking location.

The Frost Bloom that only opens at night, moonlit like frost white...

Due to the Full Moon Garden, such a scene deeply stirs longing.

"It’s expected, additionally in my estimation, the Rebirth Club may have actions soon."

Fu Qian nodded, incidentally providing a reminder.

Of course, he refers to the Greedy Worm group.

Last time Moore and his team successfully found the Ancient Angel, to further approach the Holy Order, Mr. Laurie Sr. even asked about joining the Rebirth Club.

And the answer they received was just to portray the Rebirth Club themselves, the club will naturally approach.

Given the recently confirmed urgent mood, it should not be held back for long, coincidentally aligning with Miss Liushuang’s side.

...

For people or organizations, maintaining a presence is important.

Since Old Master Lu’s visit to endorse the next Family Head, it’s been a while, it’s time for the Ji Family to feel again the unknowable corporate culture of the Rebirth Club.

"That’s great... I’ll exploit this point as the situation demands."

Though Professor Fu spoke conservatively, Miss Liushuang clearly has great confidence in his words, instantly showing delight, not even questioning why such judgment was made.

That’s more like it, young people are the protagonists.

The old professor need not speak much, just fulfill the role of a host, and when necessary provide some life experience for reference.

Miss Liushuang’s topic smoothly clears the thought process, Fu Qian is also very satisfied.

"How about you, have you found a path for further advancement?"

However, he didn’t say much more, in the next moment he turned to the observing Wen Li.
