Capítulo 1866: Chapter 1863: Hands-Off Boss

The Great Elder’s breath beca slightly hurried, “The painter’s legacy and treasure? Ling Feng, do you really know about it?”

Ling Feng nodded, “Elder Cheng should be aware that Uncle Cheng once gave a scroll from the painter, the ‘Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains’ painting. It was from that painting that I learned about the painter’s legacy and treasure.”

The Great Elder looked at Ling Feng with solemn respect. The painter is hailed as the greatest of the Ancient Ruins, a legacy and treasure incomparable to the Wordless Heavenly Scripture. To save the Old Family Head, Ling Feng stoically revealed this, demonstrating his utter sincerity towards the Old Family Head!

Such sincerity made the Great Elder feel both respectful and slightly ashad, for he had once calculated against Ling Feng in the past.

Yet, concurrently, he also resolved to fully support Ling Feng, especially if he is willing to beco the Family Head of the Cheng family. However, it seems Ling Feng has no such interest, which caused the Great Elder a tinge of regret.

“Great Elder, you are respected and esteed in the Cheng family. I hope at this critical ti, you can stand up and support . Only then can my plan be successfully realized,” Ling Feng said in a deep voice.

The Great Elder took a deep breath and nodded. After Ling Feng’s analysis, he understood clearly that there was no other viable option. To save the Old Family Head, supporting Ling Feng was a necessity.

After deliberations among the three, they were thoroughly convinced by Ling Feng. The Great Elder had to admit that Ling Feng was more suitable to be the Family Head than Cheng Shang.

For Ling Feng, he only needed to point out the direction to the Great Elder and the others. As for the specific matters, he had no need to interfere; doing so might bring adverse effects.

Moreover, more pressing tasks awaited Ling Feng, such as refining the Avatar Embryo. The Avatar Embryo posed no danger to Ling Feng now, but the refining process was exceedingly arduous. Despite his strong Soul Power, Ling Feng found the refinent process exceptionally slow.

“If I concentrate fully, it will take at least a month to complete the refining!” Ling Feng assessed the progress, involuntarily frowning.

With this thought, Ling Feng found the Great Elder and shared his intentions.

“What? Family Head, you want to seclude yourself for a month?” The Great Elder was sowhat shocked. Since confirming Ling Feng’s true identity, the Great Elder gradually changed his address to calling him Family Head.

Ling Feng nodded, “Indeed, I’ve told you everything, and in terms of specific arrangents, I believe you are more authoritative and can better leverage the Cheng family’s resources. My role now is minuscule.”

“But…” The Great Elder intended to persuade Ling Feng further but upon seeing Ling Feng’s unwavering gaze, he couldn’t help but sigh, “Very well, as Family Head wishes, but if any critical ergency arises, I hope the Family Head can erge promptly to resolve it!”

Ling Feng smiled, “I’m rely entering a secluded training, not an irrevocable one. Rest assured, should anything occur within the Cheng family, I will be there imdiately.”

The Great Elder nodded, “Okay, leave the rest to , Family Head, please rest assured!”

Ling Feng was naturally at ease; apart from the Family Head, no one could match the Great Elder’s control over the Cheng family. Entrusting everything to the Great Elder, Ling Feng was entirely at ease.

While Ling Feng entered the Cultivation Room to begin the grand undertaking of refining the embryo, Cheng Shang had already gathered his loyal followers.

“The purpose of assembling you all here this ti is simple: I have just one request—create as much chaos at the lower levels as possible. I want to make the new Family Head’s life miserable!” Cheng Shang’s eyes revealed a vicious gleam.

“Rest assured, boss! This punk dares to step over you to ascend; he’s truly courting death!”

“Exactly, and it’s said that this punk is even Miss Xue’s fiancé. It’s outrageous, everyone knows the boss has always adored Miss Xue…”

“Hmph, with the boss’s words, we brothers would follow through fire and water without hesitation!”

…

Seeing everyone indignant, a smile appeared on Cheng Shang’s face. He coughed slightly and said, “Everyone, calm down! Truth is, I bear no malice towards Ling Feng, but as you know, Heaven’s Gate has taken my foster father. As his only adopted son, my heart aches, and I wish nothing more than to rescue him imdiately!”

“However, the Great Elder passed the temporary Family Head position to Ling Feng. I’m not after the Family Head position; I just don’t trust an outsider to lead our Cheng family out of this plight! This is a critical ti for our Cheng family, and any mistake by Ling Feng could spell disaster for us.”

At this mont, Cheng Shang’s top lackey, Cheng Yu, stood up, “Exactly, everyone sees the boss’s capability; only we trust him to lead us out of the crisis. Who is this Ling Feng to beco the head of our Cheng family?”

“Boss, we know you’re all for the public good. Now, tell us what to do. As long as it gets rid of this Ling Feng guy, we won’t hesitate!”

Cheng Shang’s lips curled into a pleased smile, “Good! Since we brothers are of one heart, no hurdle is too high. Now, I have a plan for you all to execute.”

…

On the third day of Ling Feng’s retreat, while the Great Elder was discussing Cheng family matters with other elders, soone suddenly rushed in, panic-stricken, “Not good, Elder, there’s a riot outside!”

The Great Elder frowned, “Why are you panicking? What’s going on? Speak slowly!”

“All the Cheng family mbers outside are in chaos, flocking here demanding justice for the Old Family Head!”

A glint flickered in the Great Elder’s eyes but was quickly concealed, “What exactly is going on?”

The person smiled bitterly, “In the past two days, we inford all Cheng family mbers about the Family Head’s matters, and just as Great Elder predicted, everyone is outraged. But sohow, rumors spread among the crowd saying our Cheng Family Elders’ Council is obstructing the rescue of the Old Family Head and instead gave the Family Head position to an outsider. They’re demanding justice for the Old Family Head and the strict punishnt of the new Family Head!”

“Outrageous!” The Great Elder’s eyes flashed with anger, “Who is spreading such rumors? Despicable! Where is Cheng Shang?”

“Young Master Shang is outside appeasing the crowd. If not for him, the disorder would’ve been worse!”

The Great Elder coldly remarked, “Let’s go and see who is causing trouble for our Cheng family at this ti!”
