The Gong Clan was based in the south of the city and was a clan that had only risen to prominence in the past 100 years.
Their patriarch was an old King Realm cultivator who had gone on to train a couple of new King Realm cultivators.
This caused the Gong Clan to rise to prominence in Cloud Margin City.

Unfortunately, the patriarch was currently in a bad condition, putting the Gong Clan into panic.
Being someone from such a clan, Gong Qinyin had a background far stronger than the likes of Martial Hall Palace.
Why would she join the Martial Hall Palace, then?

The reason for that was simple.
She was not the daughter of the main wife and was only the daughter of a concubine.
Coupled with the absence of her mother since young, she felt extremely lonely staying in her own clan, and she wasn ’t particularly well-liked in the clan either.

If it wasn ’t for the fact that the patriarch had noticed her cultivation talent, she would have been used as a tool for political marriage long ago.
As for her appearance at the Martial Hall Palace, that was her own decision so as to leave the politics of the clan and to try to accomplish something by relying on herself.

Although the Gong Clan wasn ’t an extremely powerful clan, there was still a lot of politics in the clan, and it only exacerbated with their patriarch ’s current condition.
Gong Qinyin did not have a favorable impression of her own clan, but due to the love the patriarch had shown her and the sense of responsibility she felt due to the blood coursing in her veins, she had to do her part in helping the clan as well.

After returning to the clan estate, she went straight to her father, Gong Lianda.
Gong Lianda was a strict and dignified middle-aged man.
He was a third-stage King Realm cultivator, and one of the contenders to be the next patriarch.

”Why are you looking for me? ” Gong Lianda asked indifferently.

The Gong Clan had always been a clan that valued males over females.
Because of that prejudice, despite Gong Qinyin ’s talent, Gong Lianda still couldn ’t avoid feeling indifferent about her.

Gong Qinyin was already used to it.
Using the same indifferent expression, she answered, ”I have a way to establish a connection between you and the Cloud Margin Forging Pavilion ’s elder. ”

”Are you sure you ’re not kidding me? ” Gong Lianda questioned doubtfully.

Gong Qinyin went straight to the point and told her father what Xiang Shaoyun told her to say.

”Your friend actually has some emperor-grade materials on hand? What a lucky fellow.
No wonder he was able to attract the attention of a Cloud Margin Pavilion elder, ” said Gong Lianda with an astonished expression.
He asked, ”Are you sure he is willing to let us negotiate on behalf of him? ”

Gong Qinyin nodded, ”Our Gong Clan will only be negotiating on behalf of him, but he will still be the one keeping all the profit.
He also intends to get the elder to help him with his conflict with the Wen Clan. ”

”He is trying to pit our Gong Clan against the Wen Clan! ” Gong Lianda frowned.

”Well, it is your decision.
Are you going to agree or not? ” Gong Qinyin asked indifferently.

Gong Lianda paced around the room before finally making up his mind.
”If we can establish a friendship with a Cloud Margin Pavilion elder, we will be able to put the Wen Clan in their place and might even be able to get some help for the patriarch.
It is worth trying. ”

”So you agree? ” Gong Qinyin asked.

”Although our Gong Clan is currently in a bad situation, it is during times like these that we need to do something.
It will prove that we are still not a clan to be easily provoked, ” said Gong Lianda as he narrowed his eyes.
He then added, ”We should not delay.
Let ’s go see your friend immediately.
We will be escorting him to the Cloud Margin Forging Pavilion. ”

Thus, the two left for the Cloud Margin Restaurant with a group of people.
