Lorraine Town, Hundred Gate Restaurant.
"Manager Lie!" Yu Haoran called out loudly in the direction of the kitchen.
"Vice Sect Leader Yu, what orders do you have?" Lie Dongtang quickly appeared in the hall and asked with a fawning expression.
"Immediately prepare the best and most comfortable room. Arrange for my woman and brothers to stay first, then prepare the delicious food!" Yu Haoran ordered as he pointed at He Ruyu and Wu Zhengjun.
My woman!
Yu Haoran's overly intimate way of addressing her made He Ruyu feel embarrassed. She couldn't help but pinch his thigh under the table.
After all, there were still two outsiders, Gao Luanping and Lie Dongtang. As a woman, He Ruyu felt uncomfortable all over.
"Alright!"
As he nodded, Lie Dongtang bent over and gestured for He Ruyu and Wu Zhengjun to follow him upstairs.
"Come down and eat in twenty minutes!" Yu Haoran reminded He Ruyu, who was about to get up and go upstairs.
"Mm!" He Ruyu nodded and glared fiercely at Yu Haoran. He Ruyu and Wu Zhengjun, as well as Hei Xiong, followed Lie Dongtang upstairs.
After He Ruyu and the others left, Yu Haoran asked directly, "Master's Junior Gao, do you want to talk to me about Li Zhongming?"
"That's right!"
After a few interactions, Gao Luanping knew that Yu Haoran was a straightforward person who didn't like to beat around the bush.
Therefore, Gao Luanping didn't find it strange that Yu Haoran directly pointed out Li Zhongming. Instead, he spoke of his own thoughts.
"Martial Niece Yu, with your intelligence and wisdom, you must have seen through my true intentions from Li Zhongming's foolish behavior!"
Nodding, Yu Haoran looked directly at Gao Luanping, intending to listen to what he had to say.
"Although you forcefully pushed your Eldest Senior Brother Chu Zhongyu to the position of Sect Master of the Hundred Chi Gate some time ago, and your Eldest Senior Brother is also a good person who is wholeheartedly thinking about the development of the Sect, after so many years of internal strife and serious internal friction, the Hundred Chi Gate has actually reached a point where it is difficult to turn back."
"According to my many years of observation and judgment, in about ten years at most, the Hundred Chi Gate will either be annihilated by a powerful enemy, or it will lose too much strength and fall back to being a third-rate sect, becoming a subsidiary force of a new sect."
"Martial Niece Yu, you can say that I, Gao Luanping, am selfish and heartless."
"Since the Hundred Chi Gate has reached a point where it's hard to turn back, then I definitely won't waste the peerless talent and potential that God has bestowed upon me. I must prepare a way out for myself in advance."
Apart from Ouyang Haoyu, after Gao Luanping expressed his attitude without reservation, he hurriedly observed Yu Haoran's reaction.
He wanted to see if he was going to angrily threaten him, or bitterly teach him a lesson.
But Yu Haoran's reaction was far beyond his expectations.
"It's human nature, this is very normal!" Nodding, Yu Haoran said without a trace of surprise.
"You're not angry?" Gao Luanping asked in disbelief.
"Martial Uncle Gao, why should I be angry?" Yu Haoran frowned slightly and asked in puzzlement.
"The current Sect Master of the Hundred Chi Gate is your most respected Eldest Senior Brother Chu Zhongyu. I secretly cultivated my own team, and even had thoughts of betraying the Sect. It is obvious that I am destroying your Eldest Senior Brother's plan to revitalize the Sect. It is very likely that he will fail in the end. Don't you feel angry?"
Yu Haoran's overly strange reaction not only did not make Gao Luanping feel relieved, but he also began to guess his real thoughts.
"Martial Uncle Gao, you have just said that the faction war has caused too much internal friction in the Sect. It has reached a point where it's hard to turn back. Even if my Eldest Senior Brother wants to revitalize the Sect, it is basically a fool's dream."
After hearing Gao Luanping's question, Yu Haoran finally understood why he asked if he was angry, so he responded with a smile.
"So, whether Martial Uncle Gao betrays the Sect or not, the Hundred Chi Gate will still be destroyed. Why should I be angry because of your betrayal?"
"Martial Nephew Yu, when the time comes, what will happen to your Eldest Senior Brother?" Seeing that Yu Haoran actually thought this way, Gao Luanping was slightly relieved, but he still asked worriedly.
"Martial Uncle Gao, you don't really think that I will let my respected Eldest Senior Brother sit in the position of Sect Master forever, do you?"
Originally, Yu Haoran thought that Gao Luanping, who was extraordinarily shrewd, had already guessed his thoughts when he recommended his Eldest Senior Brother to take the position of Sect Master.
But now it seemed that he was like most people, who thought that he intended to replace the Hundred Chi Gate with Qingyun Peak through his Eldest Senior Brother and become the true ruler of the Hundred Chi Gate.
"Martial Nephew Yu, could it be that you want to use the position of Sect Master of the Hundred Chi Gate to train your Eldest Senior Brother and let him grow quickly?"
Although Yu Haoran did not say it explicitly, the shrewd Gao Luanping had almost figured out Yu Haoran's real purpose from his rhetorical tone just now.
"That's right!" Without any concealment, Yu Haoran nodded and admitted.
Moreover, he was not afraid that Gao Luanping would reveal it afterwards.
If Gao Luanping revealed his true intention of recommending his Eldest Senior Brother to take the position of Sect Master, those Peak Masters and Elders who had completely given up would probably immediately have thoughts of fighting for the position of Sect Master.
But the only ones who could truly decide on the new Sect Master were the current Sect Master Chu Zhongyu and himself.
Therefore, in order to smoothly ascend to the throne of Sect Master, they had to wholeheartedly cooperate with Chu Zhongyu. This would be more beneficial for Chu Zhongyu, who was using the position of Sect Master to train himself.
"Martial Nephew Yu, I have to say that your breadth of mind and vision far surpasses mine!"
After receiving Yu Haoran's confirmation, Gao Luanping's heart was only filled with admiration. He admired Yu Haoran's superb skills, as well as his extraordinary vision and breadth of mind.
After all, Gao Luanping did not dare to think of using the position of Sect Master of a second-rate sect to train his Eldest Senior Brother to grow quickly. He would definitely not do such a thing.
Although Yu Haoran had proven that he did not care about Gao Luanping's selfish intentions and plans, Gao Luanping still took out a pill bottle from his storage bracelet and placed it in front of Yu Haoran to ensure that there would be no accidents.
"Martial Nephew Yu, since you are so frank, then as your Martial Uncle, I would be too stingy if I continued to hide it.
"Just before you arrived at the Hundred Gate Restaurant, I received a message from Li Zhongming. He explained in detail everything you did in the Giant Sword Sect, as well as his foolish actions. He exposed the plan that I had carefully planned for nearly twenty years.
"Therefore, in order to shut your mouth, I prepared a precious treasure in advance."
