Chapter 876: When to Enter the Immortal Realm

The heads of the Ping, Zhong, and Hu families, in their last moments with Chu Mo, did not mention the assault on the September Sect, nor did they bring up the matter of giving Chu Mo thirty percent of the September Sect's resources. Chu Mo didn't inquire further, because, just before they parted, the head of the Ping family had taken him aside and said earnestly,

"The virtues of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trust are not dispensable for a great power, but their application depends on the person and situation. It's unquestionable that they cannot be completely absent; they must be present, at least in the upbringing of family heirs and the family's ancestral teachings. And in some matters, we must adhere to them. Because, although a family head may not need a reputation, the family... needs it!"

"So, the September Sect will surely be embroiled in a host of scandals soon, right?" Chu Mo had retorted at the time.
