Chapter 235: Chapter 151: Qi Shijian (Second Update)

Su Jie ultimately didn't let Ning Xinyue leave, and even had a lavish lunch imposed on him by her.

With Su Jie's return, the news of his emergence spread mouth to mouth, and soon, many in the sect knew about it.

"Young master, there are quite a few people outside seeking an audience."

A servant came to report, informing Su Jie of the situation.

"An audience with me? Why?"

Su Jie was puzzled as he had only a few friends within the sect.

After some thought, Su Jie decided to go out.

At the entrance of his residence, Su Jie saw many distinguished individuals gathered there, some were managers of mines and medicinal gardens, others were responsible for distributing rewards to disciples, and some were related to certain Elders, all influential figures of Ghost Ridge Palace, with power only second to the Elders.
