Chu Lingxiao suddenly changed the subject: "The Gu family must be in chaos right now. Those who are still in the Gu family and didn't follow the head of the Gu family should still be racking their brains to come up with a countermeasure."
Gu Qingze seemed to be lost in thought, muttering, "It is indeed like this..."
Chu Lingxiao asked, "Then are we going back to Gu's house?"
"I'm not going back." Gu Qingze was silent for a long time before he slowly said, "Gu Hongjing will probably not come back for the next six months to avoid suspicion. After all, he has to wait until people gradually forget about this matter..."
"If I were to return to the Gu family now, as the next head of the Gu family, even though it's just a title, I would become the most powerful among the current members of the Gu family."
"When they see me back, they'll definitely let me make the decision. It's better not to take on this thankless and troublesome task on my own."
"I believe that although the head of the Gu family left suddenly, he should have left them some instructions. They will know what to do."
"And the reason why Gu Hongjing didn't take all the staff with him was probably to ensure the operation of the spiritual weapon shops in Qingyun City..."
"In short, since Gu Hongjing is the head of the Gu family and has anticipated this matter, he must have considered it much more thoroughly than we have. We just need to trust him. The situation is too chaotic now and we can't go back."
Chu Lingxiao nodded: "Then where are we going next?"
Gu Qingze sighed helplessly: "Let's just go back to Qingyun Sect."

"If they recognize that I've returned after completing my mission and haven't bothered to resolve my family affairs, I'll probably be caught in a whirlpool of public opinion. It's better for me to avoid suspicion like my father did and leave Qingyun City directly."
After Gu Qingze made up his mind, he and Chu Lingxiao flew on their swords again and left this noisy place, leaving behind only a gradually receding figure that disappeared into the clouds in the sky.
