"This is paving the way for the emperor's son's competition, and also planning for his own future path as a saint."
However, he and Zuoqiu Zhenghua are both cultivators of the Purple Abode who have lived for hundreds of years. Naturally, they wouldn't just look at things on the surface.

If the Zuoqiu family didn't have designs on the Cao family's maritime trade, he would have suggested Zuoqiu Junming should have accepted the peace proposal delivered by Cao Bangning's intermediaries, instead of choosing to continue the entanglement with the Cao family.
After all, there is no shortage of Sky Prides in the Cao family, and although Zuoqiu Qingyun's performance was not bad after he got the opportunity, his life wasn't particularly precious.
For him to clash with another Purple Abode prominent family for so many years does not align with the overall interests of the Zuoqiu family.
