Lin Fei recalled the words of Master Qiu Lin, so he resorted to extreme measures and added fuel to the fire.

Initially, Lin Fei had no interest in Xia Xue as she was just a "little girl," but over twelve years, Xia Xue neither cultivated nor focused on nourishing life.

After all, for Xia Xue, time seemed to be at a standstill, when she suddenly came to her senses, it was already ten years later. Like Lin Fei, the ten-year dream happened to Xia Xue as well.

Even cultivators have their weaknesses, remaining vulnerable in certain areas.

Lin Fei walked alone in front of the palace. This palace was moved from the Murong Family and placed directly in the Beidou Sect, used as the main hall. Given its size and location atop Man Mountain, it was excellent.

At that moment, someone from afar spotted Lin Fei and immediately called out to him: "Brother! Come over!" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Leng Daoqiu seemed very pleased, after all, the person he liked appeared to be increasingly gentle toward him. At least in his eyes, Yan Qiubo already acknowledged him. Leng Daoqiu had no other demands, just hoped to grow old together with Yan Qiubo.

"Brother, what’s the matter?" Lin Fei approached Leng Daoqiu and asked.

Leng Daoqiu chuckled, "Today, many former disciples of Beidou Sect have returned. How will you arrange them, Sect Leader?"

Lin Fei chuckled, "Brother, don’t make fun of me. You’re much better suited to be Sect Leader. You know I’m not cut out for that role, so please don’t give me a hard time."

"You mustn’t. It was the second brother’s dying wish that you inherit the sect leader position. Nobody can take that away from you," Leng Daoqiu said.

"Alright, then. Brother, you should listen to me as the Sect Leader, right? Since I’m the leader and you’re just a regular member, at most you’re my senior brother, isn’t that correct?" Lin Fei asked.

"While what you say is true, but..."

"No buts. Brother, from now on I want you to handle all affairs of Beidou Sect. You will be the Sect Leader, and surely you won’t refuse my request?" Lin Fei sincerely spoke to Sect Leader Leng Daoqiu.

Leng Daoqiu could only sigh in the end, nodding his head, "Alright, then. If that’s the case, I’ll graciously accept."

Lin Fei finally nodded in satisfaction, bowing respectfully to Leng Daoqiu and thanked him for agreeing. In the past, Lin Fei might have taken the role of Sect Leader, but now he no longer had the desire, realizing it wasn’t his forte.

Lin Fei understood his own capabilities; these responsibilities were beyond him. Compared to Lin Fei, Leng Daoqiu was the most suitable person. Although he once disliked being Sect Leader, he managed very well. Being Sect Leader comes with responsibilities, which Leng Daoqiu now understands.

So Leng Daoqiu would never be as naïve and stubborn as he was before, allowing demons to exploit openings.

Now, Leng Daoqiu is determined to be a good Sect Leader, all because of one thing: Yan Qiubo.

Yan Qiubo holds an immensely high place in Leng Daoqiu’s heart, so for Yan Qiubo, Leng Daoqiu is willing to shoulder the responsibility of being a sect leader. After all, Yan Qiubo is one of the Three Immortals, and he cannot abandon his duty to protect Yandang Mountain, while Leng Daoqiu can’t just idle around at Yandang Mountain.

Hence, Leng Daoqiu decided to accept Lin Fei’s request to become the Sect Leader of Beidou Sect.

Later, Lin Fei thought of something and asked Leng Daoqiu, "Brother, do you know where the Man Mountain Seal is located?"

Upon hearing Lin Fei’s question, Leng Daoqiu furrowed his brow, "I’ve never heard of the Man Mountain Seal, nor have I seen it, even our master never mentioned it."

Lin Fei found this hard to accept but realized Leng Daoqiu wouldn’t deceive him. He chose not to dwell on it, keeping a note in his mind.

With affairs concluded, Lin Fei was ready to return to his room when suddenly a spatial ripple appeared. A black hole expanded before Lin Fei, and eventually, someone emerged in the space.

Upon seeing the person, Lin Fei bowed and greeted, "Senior brother, you’ve finally returned. How did things go?"

Time passed as a full day and night elapsed, Lin Fei asked his senior brother, Dugu Aotian.

Dugu Aotian furrowed his brow, looking at Lin Fei with an unusual expression. Lin Fei could sense a shift, indicating that something must have happened.

"Senior brother, what’s going on? Tell me," Lin Fei asked urgently, eager to understand the reason behind his senior brother’s sigh.

Dugu Aotian gazed at Lin Fei before speaking, "Lin Fei, I owe you an apology. It concerns visitors from the Upper Realm. There might be a continuous influx to the Lower Realm, so brace yourself..."

"What?!"
