Upon hearing this, the Third Elder was slightly startled; he had not disclosed the details to Mu Huaidong and the others beforehand, fearing that it would give them ideas. Yet, how did Qu Lingshan manage to speak first? Little did he know, Qu Shanling had taken the initiative to speak precisely to inspire them to hatch plans. If no one harbored any ideas, where would he scavenge benefits from?
The several young people were also stunned, and their expressions soon shifted to either surprise, nervousness, or excitement. Only Mu Huaidong remained composed, though his gaze met with Qu Shanling's for a moment, subtly blinking.
Hey, I truly wasn't wrong; this young man is quite astute. It seems I won't miss out on the benefits. Qu Shanling was delighted internally, although the Third Elder had caught him off guard; still, the benefits he was to reap inevitably could not escape him.
