The Fang Family had their own considerations for doing so.
With the once-a-decade Water and Land Dharma Assembly about to begin, the Black Tiger Gang Leader's cultivation had broken through to the Immortal Master Realm. If nothing unexpected occurred, he was very likely to fight his way out among the many competitors and successfully win a chance at immortality.
Once he obtained the entry ticket from the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect, the Black Tiger Gang Leader naturally wouldn't have the time or energy to manage the Black Tiger Gang anymore.
At that time, a new Gang Leader would definitely be selected.
If Fang Lian performed well in this crucial war and made a name for himself, the Fang Family could later exert their influence to help him fight for the position of Gang Leader, and the chances of success were very high.
