"For the Ning Family, I believe that it's most beneficial and prudent for us to help you, Lord, achieve the ultimate victory and establish good relations with the Royal Family."
Zhu Xuanji nodded and said nothing more.
Ning Zhuo exhaled a heavy breath.
He knew that Zhu Xuanji did not truly wish to give up the position of Palace Master. Even if he were serious, Zhu Xuanji actually had no right to give it up, as there was still a third round of tests after the second one.
It would be foolish for Ning Zhuo to show interest in the position of Palace Master.
By saying these words, Zhu Xuanji was hinting to Ning Zhuo not to develop desires inappropriate to his status, just because he had become a Clan Leader of a branch family.
He was also reminding Ning Jiufan not to covet things he shouldn't have.
