Lady Qian Ji did not anticipate that the City Lord now seems somewhat disinterested, wanting to retreat to No Struggle Island.
"The Peacock's attitude represents Lu Yao's intentions."
"..."
Lady Qian Ji's heart moved slightly, understanding the City Lord's thoughts: "The City Lord thinks that the Golden Immortal Council is just a guise of Lu Yao?"
"Perhaps it wasn't before, but now it's uncertain." Gu Hong Taoist said solemnly, "He gained benefits in the Pure Land, will he still value us Golden Immortals without foundation... It's really hard to say."
Lady Qian Ji suddenly realized: "The City Lord thinks that Lu Yao now just wants to use us? Actually doesn't want to share power with us anymore?"
Gu Hong Taoist nodded slightly: "That's precisely it. Previously, he proposed the Golden Immortal Council probably only because his strength was lacking and he couldn't suppress all the Golden Immortals of Xuanwei, hence the compromise."
"Now... the situation is different."
