Of course, that was the official story. In reality, the Qi Yun Miscellaneous Affairs Peak had decided to restrict the White Mountain Beast Taming Sect's activities. As for how to do it, Nangong Zhi already had a preliminary plan.
It's hard to keep secrets in this world. Nangong Zhi's plan had to be reported to the Qi Yun Miscellaneous Affairs Peak, which had three rotating acting Sect Leaders alone, not to mention over ten other Steward Nascent Souls.
Although the Qi Yun Chu Family's power had been declining ever since Chu Zhen's death, he had been a formidable figure who once vied for the position of Qi Yun Sect Leader. The legacy he left behind wasn't something that would vanish in just a hundred years.
According to Chu Hongshang's intelligence, in order to secretly restrict Lechuan's continued development, Nangong Zhi was preparing to find someone at the Beast Taming General Mountain to come and replace Lechuan as the head of the White Mountain branch.
