Chapter 1189: Chapter 571: Trouble Comes Knocking!
The Qingmo Clan initially was indeed a low-ranking power pinnacle clan within Boundless City, but they had never reached a level of dominance over the other pinnacle clans.
In terms of clan size and influence, they had always been on par with the Lingdian Clan, the Zhehen Clan, and the Shuangdan Clan.
It was because the master had taken root within the Qingmo Clan, living among them.
For decades, he had ceaselessly provided resources for the Qingmo Clan, enhancing their influence.
It was only because of this that the Qingmo Clan was able to achieve its current state.
However, the clan’s ruling members did not respect the master more for it; instead, they felt that as the clan’s strength grew, the relationship with the master gradually shifted from one of dependence to an increasingly equal partnership.
Chen Tong felt it improper to evaluate the clan’s actions, yet the clan’s behavior had severely affected him.
“Grandfather, I believe I have always been true to the clan and to the nurturing the clan has provided me.”
“This journey indeed involved no special incident.”
“Moreover, even if something had occurred, I could only disclose it to the clan with the permission of Float Yue GrandMaster.”
“Actually, if there’s anything you wish to know, Grandfather, you are wholly entitled to seek out Float Yue GrandMaster directly.”
“Surely, you would not want Float Yue GrandMaster to punish me for my words and deeds, right?”
Unable to contain himself, Chen Tong revealed his innermost thoughts.
Chen Boyuan did not visibly react, but internally, he was seething with rage.
Chen Tong was now truly in cahoots with Float Yue GrandMaster!
When the clan initially allowed Chen Tong to follow Float Yue GrandMaster, it was nothing more than a hope that Chen Tong could serve as a bridge for the clan to communicate with Float Yue GrandMaster.
But now, Chen Tong was not sharing details of Float Yue GrandMaster’s affairs with the clan.
This made it impossible for the clan to speculate about Float Yue GrandMaster’s intentions or to find an appropriate way to gain his favor.
The power of the Qingmo Clan kept growing due to Float Yue GrandMaster’s influence.
The Qingmo Clan was well aware of the significance of Float Yue GrandMaster in Boundless City.
If Float Yue GrandMaster were to leave Boundless City, the Qingmo Clan would regret it deeply.
Yet it was not as though they truly could not accept it.
Should Float Yue GrandMaster depart from Boundless City, the Qingmo Clan would still be the strongest force within.
But if Float Yue GrandMaster considered joining another clan within Boundless City, any clan hosting him would, before long, surpass the Qingmo Clan.
With the help of Float Yue GrandMaster, Chen Boyuan’s strength had visibly reached the peak of the Sequential.
But in reality, Chen Boyuan had always been secretly collecting more Grandmaster Creator resources to further strengthen himself.
Taking advantage of the moment Float Yue GrandMaster left for the Boundless Sea Market, Chen Boyuan had already become an Order Strong.
This spurred Chen Boyuan to entertain thoughts of controlling Float Yue GrandMaster.
The very moment this thought emerged in Chen Boyuan’s mind was enough to alter his original attitude toward Float Yue GrandMaster.
“Child, there is something you must understand,” he said.
“You carry the blood of the Qingmo Clan, while Zhang Yue is merely your master.”
“Being born into a great clan, how could you not side with your family!?”
“I am asking you now, if you were forced to choose between your master and your family, what decision would you make?”
Chen Boyuan spoke in a very gentle tone, but it truly startled Chen Tong.
From his grandfather’s words, Chen Tong faintly sensed an unusual implication.
Chen Tong was puzzled as to why his grandfather would ask such a question.
In Chen Tong’s heart, his family and his master were inherently inseparable.
Could it be that his grandfather or the clan had indeed developed some ill will toward his master!?
With such matters abruptly laid before him, Chen Tong had no idea how he should choose!
All Chen Tong could do was to keep his grandfather’s words from reaching his master.
Chen Tong felt a degree of anxiety as well.
After his master had pledged allegiance to Saint Creator Qixing, with just a simple command from Qixing, his master would have to leave Boundless City.

The Qingmo Clan was destined not to keep the master.
Chen Tong secretly hoped his master would always remain within the Qingmo Clan.
After a long pause, Chen Tong raised his eyes and spoke with utmost sincerity to Chen Boyuan.
“Grandfather, I carry the Qingmo Clan’s bloodline and naturally belong to the Qingmo Clan!”
“If there truly is something that must be informed to the clan from the master’s side, I will let you know,” he assured.
“You can rest assured about this!”
“The master probably still has many tasks for me, so I should return now.”
“I have kept a portion of the resources the master gave me.”
With those words, Chen Tong placed a chest specifically for storing elixirs in front of Chen Boyuan and left the quiet room designed for this private conversation between grandfather and grandson.
Chen Tong’s heart was laden with complexity, yet Chen Boyuan’s mind rather calmed down.
Now, Chen Boyuan had one certainty: if it really came down to a choice, Chen Tong would definitely lean more toward the clan!
Over the years, Chen Tong had always brought resources he obtained from Zhang Yue to himself, which clearly indicated Chen Tong’s attitude toward the clan.
By not sharing what he said today with Zhang Yue, Chen Tong was, in fact, betraying Zhang Yue.
It’s just that Chen Tong had not yet realized it.
Chen Boyuan’s words today had laid the groundwork for Chen Tong’s psychological understanding and expectations.
When the day for Chen Tong to make a choice arrived, he would make the correct decision.
