Chapter 1188: Chapter 1187: Who Is the Right Person to Send?

Upon hearing Mrs. Hou’s words, Fu Haiwen shook his head, "That child is only six years old and from the Modern Family, it’s completely unreliable. With each additional attempt at such a task, the risk only increases. Even Hou Baiyu and Xuan Ge are trapped in there; this shows how dangerous and difficult it is. What could he possibly do?"

Fu Haiwen, in a somewhat bad mood, directly refuted Mrs. Hou’s suggestion. Mrs. Hou wasn’t upset; her mood was similar yesterday. However, at least Hou Baiyu returned, and as long as a way out can be thought of, there will always be a solution.

Mrs. Hou suggested Luo Yirui go because Hou Baiyu insisted on having Luo Yirui join the team. Everyone knows Hou Baiyu is... so his opinion was highly valued by Mrs. Hou!

Mrs. Hou understood Hou Baiyu’s temperament. Though calling him mature was a bit much, his steadiness was something even older peers couldn’t match, and he had never made such a firm request before.

Thus, Luo Yirui from the Qingyu School must have some extraordinary qualities!

But who would be convinced by this reason if said aloud?

She couldn’t possibly disclose Hou Baiyu’s affairs, could she?

"Do you have any suggestions?" Mrs. Hou asked.

Fu Haiwen paused, "Given the situation, we might as well bring in two more families. Any one of them would be stronger than those from the Modern Family."

Mrs. Hou remained silent. If not for Hou Baiyu’s firm suggestion, her thoughts would align with Fu Haiwen’s.

"Which family do you think is suitable?" Mrs. Hou asked again.

Fu Haiwen contemplated. In fact, among the three prominent families and four sects, except for the Tianyao Sect, others brought children, but only the Fu Family and Hou Family brought true elites. The other three families sent mere puppets.

This was proof of their foundational confidence. The three other families, worried their people might not return, adopted this strategy. But it seemed laughable now, as their two families’ elites were trapped.

After much thought, Fu Haiwen considered the girl from the Pengge Sect, surnamed Jing, who was renowned — not because she was exceptionally skilled, rather because she was obsessed with painting, squandering her great talent.

The Little Fatty from the Xunyue School had some talent, but unfortunately, was still quite far from the final step needed to succeed, and his adaptability was unknown. Sending him might just lead to death.

And the young girl from the Cloud Sea Sect was even less noteworthy. Her average talent meant nothing, especially since she would cling to the Hou and Fu Family young masters at each gathering, her pretentiousness glaring to adults, which was displeasing.

Fu Haiwen analyzed in his heart but found no one suitable.

The current problem was that pulling everyone into an alliance posed too great a risk. Presently, they had to choose one from these three.

"The boy from the Xunyue School, Zu Yan, what does Granny Hou think?" Fu Haiwen asked.

Mrs. Hou was momentarily stunned, "Who is he?" She truly had no impression; she knew the names of a few outstanding disciples from Xunyue School.

Fu Haiwen paused and roughly explained Zu Yan’s situation, noticing Mrs. Hou frowning.

He sighed, "There are no other candidates now."

In truth, he knew Zu Yan’s fate would likely be the same, but besides him, there was no more suitable choice. The elders couldn’t go, and the selection was indeed limited, surely they couldn’t send the Modern Family’s disciples, whose qualifications were inferior even to their second or third-tier disciples.
