At this time, Lao Mo knocked on the door and came in from outside, whispering: "Young Master, Pang Runliang is here."

Su Le nodded and said to Wang Fusheng: "Brother Fusheng, you watch TV first, I'll come."

Wang Fusheng responded, looking at the luxurious decorations in the room. All this could only be seen on TV in the past. I really couldn't believe it was the fact and doubted whether he was sleeping.

When Pang Runliang saw him walking into the living room, he quickly stood up from the sofa. Although he was much older than Su Le and was Su Le’s elder, his status had nothing to do with his age. Su Le was the leader of Qianji Sect and he was his subordinate.

There were still some scratches on Su Le's face, which were traces left by fighting on a rainy night in Phoenix Mountain, but it was obvious that he was in good spirits. In Pang Runliang's eyes, this kid was a little energetic, and in his impression, he rarely saw him tired and slack.

Su Le waved his hand to Pang Runliang to signal him to sit down and whispered: "How is the matter you asked you to investigate?" His attitude towards Pang Runliang changed a lot, from the respect he developed because of his unpredictable and profoundness to later being called Uncle Pang, and later directly calling him Lao Pang. Now he is too lazy to even call his surname.

Pang Runliang had guessed that Su Le would definitely ask about this before coming here, and he was prepared in his heart. He sighed and said, "The man Cao Xingwang, who is quite cunning. He must have prepared a way out before he planned this matter. We will issue a warrant for the pursuit of the rivers and lakes to mobilize all the disciples under Qianji. Don't worry, as long as Cao Xingwang dares to show up, he will definitely not let him escape."

Su Le smiled, and contempt appeared between the corners of his lips. Pang Runliang was very unhappy with his smile, but even if he was in his position, he had to endure it. He leaned in front of Su Le and whispered: "Young Master, I heard you were in some trouble in Nanwu?"

Su Le said calmly: "It's just a few small things."

The more he said it lightly, the more Pang Runliang thought. He already knew about Su Le’s experience in Nanwu. Whether it was meeting with Chen Yunfu, being taken into the Nanmartial Police Station, or suspected of Xia Shanyi being killed, or finding a siege and blocking on the way, this was not a trivial matter. Su Le actually summarized it in one sentence. This attitude was obviously distrust of himself.

Pang Runliang couldn't figure out why the relationship between him and Su Le had developed to this current situation. After all, he was one of the objects of Su Donglai's orphanage. He asked himself that he performed well after Su Donglai's death, at least he gave everyone the impression that he was extremely safeguarding the interests of the Su family. And he was the first to propose that Su Le be the leader of Qianji Sect, but Su Le's attitude towards him was becoming increasingly distant, which made Pang Runliang feel a little puzzled.

People's hearts are often extremely contradictory. They always want to figure out the things that are puzzled, especially for Pang Runliang. He was the first to find Su Le, and witnessed the entire process of Su Donglai and Su Le's father and son recognizing each other, and tried his best to recommend Su Le to the throne. Of course, his motivation was not to fulfill Su Donglai's instructions. He wanted to use Su Le, but he wanted to imitate Cao Mengde and use the emperor to command the princes. But he suddenly found that this kid was not easy to control, and the most troublesome thing was that Su Le did not trust him.

Pang Runliang is a person who is good at summarizing. He rarely pushes mistakes to others. The first thing he thinks about is his own shortcomings. In this matter, he believes that it is not that Su Le is too smart, but because he is not meticulous enough in his work. Some of his behaviors must arouse Su Le's vigilance. If you want to regain Su Le's trust, you must eliminate his vigilance. If you want to do this, you must pay a certain price and show considerable sincerity.

Pang Runliang said: "Young Master, I have learned a little about Nanwu."

Su Le sighed and said, "You are the one who likes to talk about the bush. Just say whatever you want!"

Pang Runliang heard that he was expressing his dissatisfaction with him tactfully, and immediately took a helpless expression, and sighed, "Maybe this is the generation gap! I am already in forty years. After being in society for a long time, I have become more attentive when speaking."

"You mean I can't speak or do things without my brain?"

Pang Runliang waved his hand in a hurry and said, "That's not what it means. Young Master, I mean, we are not people from the same era, and our outlook on life and values ​​are different."

When Su Le heard him say this, she couldn't help but laugh: "What is your outlook on life?"

Pang Runliang said: "The goal is too lofty. The thing I want to do most now is to allow Qianjimen to safely survive this extraordinary period and fulfill their promise to the sect leader."

Su Le said: "Old Pang, say something I shouldn't say. Why do I feel that you are a little perfunctory when doing things since my father passed away?" Su Le deliberately stared at Pang Runliang's meaning when he spoke.

Pang Runliang's expression remained unchanged. He nodded and said, "Not only did the young master think I was perfunctory, but the others from Qianji Sect also saw it."

Su Le said: "It's rare that you dare to admit it."

Pang Runliang said: "The young master thought that after the sect leader left, how many people in Qianji were convinced by you? How many people willingly regarded you as the successor"

Su Le said: "I'm afraid there are not many, I can count it with a slap. Since you understand everything, why do you convince those old comrades to agree to promote me as your successor? Be honest and tell me what is the purpose?"

Pang Runliang said: "I have only one purpose, that is, to fulfill the sect leader's last wish. Everyone can see that I am perfunctory. Do you know what others think about this?"

Su Le shook his head, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Pang Runliang said: "They all said that I wanted to use the support of you as my successor and use the emperor to command the princes."

Su Le's eyes lit up, and he thought so in his heart, but he thought Pang Runliang would not dare to say it, but he did not expect that he not only said it, but also said it in front of him.

Pang Runliang said: "There is loyalty in this world. If you want to win the trust of others, you have to make others think that you are the same kind of person as him. You just said that few people recommended you as your successor. It is true that letting you take charge of the Qianji Sect is the meaning of the sect leader. Since I have agreed to the sect leader, I have to keep my promise, stand firmly by the young master, and protect your interests at all costs. In the eyes of others, I must be a loyal man, but if I do this, many people will place me into your camp and will isolate me. Young master, you may not be accustomed to some of my actions, but please believe that I have no malice towards you and Qianji Sect. Everything I do is difficult. I don't care what others think of me, I don't care what methods are used. As long as I can achieve my own goals and as long as I can fulfill my promise to the sect leader, that is enough." Pang Runliang said quite emotionally.

Su Le also admitted that his words were very reasonable and indeed seemed very sincere, but Su Le still could not eliminate his guard against Pang Runliang. His father's last words were always a beacon for him to deal with his relationship with these elderly people. Su Le whispered: "I believe in you, it's just that so many things have happened in our Su family, and your performance has never been so positive."

Pang Runliang said: "Young Master, there is an old saying in the world that a gentleman will take revenge for ten years. Don't forget that you are only eighteen years old and still young. Even if you wait for ten years, twenty years will not be too late. There are priorities. Do you know why the eight elders in the sect agreed that you will be the successor?"

Su Le did not answer his question because he felt that there was no need to answer.

Pang Runliang said: "I can convince them only one reason, not because you are the son of the sect leader, nor because of the so-called loyalty in the martial arts world, but two words - maintaining stability!"

Su Le nodded, but did not fully agree with Pang Runliang's words. The reason why these old people were willing to promote themselves was their interests.

Pang Runliang said: "There are indeed many people who care about money, but some people do not value money so much. The interests of the eight elders are not as much involved in Qianjimen's interests as you imagined. For example, Mr. Jin and Meng Qiuran, they do not have much interest exchanges with the Su family. What can impress them is stability. What they need is not the interests of money, but the signboard of Qianjimen. Although Qianjimen has encountered some things recently, although many people think that our momentum is not as good as before, for everyone, the years since Qianjimen was established are time worth remembering. Everyone has truly gained benefits from Qianjimen. People with long-term vision know that stability is good for everyone. Even if they do not trust your leader in their hearts, they can never find someone who is more suitable for this position except you."

Su Le said: "The purpose of maintaining stability is nothing more than procrastination. When everyone stabilizes their position, then I will lose the value of existence."

Pang Runliang looked at Su Le with appreciation. This young man was indeed not simple. He saw things thoroughly. It was quite rare to have such scheming and insight at such an age. Pang Runliang said: "Take one step at a time, in fact, you need more stability and time than others." He knew Su Le's weakness. It should be said that Su Le had too many weaknesses. No matter how clearly this young man could see the inside story, he would never be able to get rid of the influence of Qianjimen.

Pang Runliang said: "If a person wants to live a better life in this world, the first thing he learns is to accept reality."

Su Le said: "Now I have begun to understand Mr. Pang's painstaking efforts."

Pang Runliang said: "I don't care whether you understand or not. I just want to be worthy of the sect leader's instructions." This is the second time he has emphasized this matter.

Su Le nodded.

Pang Runliang said: "There are many rumors outside that are not conducive to you recently. I think you go to Nanwu this time and ask Chen Yunfu to target you for most of this."
