As he said the last sentence, the Supreme Elder, who had been presiding over the You Family for several generations, had an extremely sharp killing intent in his eyes.

He suddenly said, “Changsheng, did you hear what 1 said just now?”

As soon as he finished speaking, You Changbai, who was kneeling on the ground, looked up in shock.

A man dressed in a white robe who looked to be in his thirties had appeared at some point and was standing behind You Zhenfang.

Most importantly, this person’s cultivation had already reached the perfected Foundation Establishment Realm.

Moreover, he had a dense spiritual qi around him.

If everything went smoothly, as long as he was given the corresponding spiritual item to help him break through to the Violet Palace Realm, he had a high chance of success.

“Yes, great-grandfather. I’ll remember your words.”

The white-robed man called You Changsheng bowed respectfully to You Zhenfang and replied in a solemn tone.

“Good.”

You Zhenfang nodded in satisfaction.

“From now on, you’ll be the new head of the You family.”

After a pause, You Zhenfang continued,

“Later, ask around and get to know how much benefits our You family has squeezed out of the Jiang family over the years. Then, return the Jiang family several times or even ten times the amount.

Remember, don’t deny the mistakes you made. You must apologize sincerely and beg for the Jiang family’s forgiveness, understand?”

You Changsheng did not hesitate at all. He immediately nodded.

“Yes, great-grandfather. I understand.”

After a pause, he asked,

“How should we deal with the Second Elder and his Dao companion?”

“Mm, how do you think we should deal with them?”

You Zhenfang suddenly looked at You Changsheng meaningfully and asked with a smile.

You Changsheng replied without thinking.

“I think that if we hand over the Second Elder and his Dao companion, this will definitely disappoint our clansmen and be disadvantageous to the stability of our family in the future.

However, if we did not deal with them, we might offend the Jiang family.

Although the You Family and the Origin Returning Sect have targeted the Jiang Family back then, fortunately, our main goal was to seize the Jiang family’s industries. We have never killed any of them.

Therefore, the best way to deal with this matter is to quell the Jiang family’s anger with enough compensation and tell them that the Second Elder and his Dao companion will be grounded in the family for the rest of their lives.

If they were to disobey, the You family would be the first to kill them without the Jiang family needing to do anything.

This way, not only can we give the Jiang family an explanation, but it will also be a deterrent to the other clansmen.”

Clap! Clap! Clap!

You Zhenfang could not help but clap.

He looked at You Changsheng in satisfaction and praised,

“Changsheng, you’re indeed the hope of the You family. 1 was right about you.

Alright, we’ll do as you said.

Also, take that Glorious Star Grass and give it to the Jiang family as a token of apology.”

Hearing this, You Changsheng’s expression finally changed for the first time.

He hesitated for a moment before asking,

“Great-grandfather, as far as 1 know, Glorious Star Grass is a mid-grade Level

3 spiritual herb. After consuming it, there’s a 15% increase in the chance of breaking through to the fourth level of the Violet Palace. It’s your most precious thing. Are you really going to give it to the Jiang family? Why don’t we see if there’s anything else to replace it?”

Hearing You Changsheng’s words, not only did You Zhenfang not blame You Changsheng, he even smiled and patted You Changsheng’s shoulder and explained patiently,

“Changsheng, you have to remember that external objects are ultimately external objects. If you hold on to it too tightly and put it above everything else, then there will be a day when you will be harmed by it.

Moreover, 1 don’t have much life span left. My spiritual qi and Dharmic powers have already begun to decline. Even if I really consume the Glorious Star Grass, the probability of breaking through is low.

Instead of that, it’s better to use it to exchange something more useful.

Remember, when you make an enemy, it doesn’t mean that you have to remain enemies with each other forever.

In some cases, you can make your enemy your friend.

By the same token, friends can also become your enemies.

Do you understand?”

You Changsheng knew that You Zhenfang was teaching a lesson based on four hundred years of experience.

He felt extremely grateful.

He was not in a hurry to answer You Zhenfang. Instead, after thinking carefully, he nodded seriously.

“Great-grandfather, 1 understand.”
