"However, despite serving for over two hundred years, not only have I failed to strengthen our sect, but I have also allowed it to progressively decline during my tenure. I truly feel ashamed for failing the trust placed in me by Ancestor Qingxiao and all my fellow sect members!"

As he said this, Master Qingwei’s eyes closed slightly, and he couldn’t help but recall the scene when he first took over as the Temple Master.

At that time, Jingguo Country was at peace, Qingxiao True Person was still in his prime, and Green Lotus Temple was brimming with vitality. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

He had firmly believed that after assuming the role of Temple Master, he could make Green Lotus Temple even stronger.

In the following years, under his leadership, Green Lotus Temple indeed developed steadily, getting better and better.

Even the resurgence of war with the Dragon Transformation Sect hadn’t truly drained Green Lotus Temple of its Essence Energy; on the contrary, they made a fortune by counterattacking the Dragon Transformation Sect afterwards.

During that time, they also made a name and gained advantages in the "Thousand Absolute Grub Disaster" in Yang Kingdom, earning praises from Qingxiao True Person himself.

But this favorable situation ultimately turned for the worse with Tianjing True Person’s Transforming Elixir and Forming Infant, leading to a rapid downward spiral!

The decline from prosperity started from this point!

"Now, all we can hope for is that Senior Brother Qingchen succeeds. As long as he can successfully form his Nascent Soul, our sect still has a chance to revive!"

Master Qingwei muttered to himself in his heart and then opened his eyes.

He calmly looked at Wei Yong and said, "Friend Wei, you did make some sense earlier. Since Zeng Shiming was once a disciple of our sect and committed such an outrageously treacherous act, I, as the Temple Master, bear the responsibility for not disciplining him strictly. Therefore, I have decided to step down from the Temple Master position and face the wall in penance for fifty years. I wonder if that satisfies you, Friend Wei?"

"Brother... Temple Master..."

One of the Golden Elixir Elders of Green Lotus Temple looked at Master Qingwei in shock, at a loss for words.

But Master Qingwei waved his hand and said, "My mind is made up, Junior Brother. No need to persuade me further."

Seeing this, Wei Yong also showed a satisfied expression and nodded, "Since Master Qingwei is willing to acknowledge his mistake, I am not an unreasonable person. This matter can be settled as you have proposed."

After saying this, he casually added as if the thought had just occurred to him, "Oh, by the way, there’s something I need to inform Master Qingwei on behalf of our Sect Leader Uncle from Moon Wheel Sect. Zhou Zhengchun from the Zhou Family of Lingzhou has shown extraordinary merit in this war and has always been eager to join our sect. Therefore, the Sect Leader Uncle has decided to accept the Zhou Family as a vassal to our sect, to rear Demon Beasts for us generation after generation!"

Wei Yong said this without looking at Master Qingwei’s face, which turned unsightly in an instant, and just kept talking, "The Sect Leader Uncle does this for your own good too, Master Qingwei. After all, Little Friend Zhou has killed many demon cultivator elites on the battlefield. Now, even Golden Core Stage Demon Cultivators have infiltrated Jingguo Country to target him. If anything were to happen to him, it would be unfavorable for both your nominal Master title and the reputation of Green Lotus Temple!"

After this statement, naturally, Master Qingwei’s face was quite unpleased, but it also angered the Golden Elixir Elder of Green Lotus Temple who was unaware of the situation.

The Elder immediately glared at Wei Yong and rebuked, "What do you mean by this, Friend Wei? Are you implying that Green Lotus Temple, without Ancestor Qingxiao, can’t even protect a vassal family of ours?"

With anger, he declared, "Just some mere Golden Core Stage Demon Cultivators; I will personally go to the Zhou Family tomorrow to stand guard. Let’s see if those demon cultivators dare to target Zhou Family, risking their own lives!"

But Wei Yong paid him no heed and simply looked at Master Qingwei, "What do you think, Master Qingwei?"

Upon hearing this, Master Qingwei replied with a gloomy face, "Since Moon Wheel Sect sees value in the Zhou Family, it is the Zhou Family’s good fortune. Our Green Lotus Temple has no objections!"

"Brother..."

The Golden Elixir Elder of the Green Lotus Temple still seemed reluctant to accept the situation but was stopped by Master Qingwei raising his hand.

Master Qingwei looked at Wei Yong with a grim expression and said, "Friend Wei, is there anything else you wish to discuss? If not, I need to convene with the other Elders to discuss the matter of succession. I won’t detain you any longer."

"If that’s the case, then I will take my leave first."

Wei Yong glanced at the two Golden Core Stage Cultivators of Green Lotus Temple, smiled faintly, and immediately left Green Lotus Temple with the corpse on the ground.

After the two left the Green Lotus Mountain Range, Junior Brother Xu, who had been silent all along, immediately transmitted his voice to Wei Yong, "Senior Brother Wei, I’m somewhat confused. Since we know Master Qingwei secretly instructed people to betray the country, why don’t we thoroughly investigate the matter to tarnish Green Lotus Temple’s reputation?"

"It would be even better if we could use this opportunity to interfere with Taoist Qingchen’s Transforming Elixir and Forming Infant!"

He was puzzled, but he did not express this in Green Lotus Temple, which showed how much he respected Wei Yong.

Wei Yong also seemed to have a good relationship with him, shaking his head and replying, "The time is not right yet. If Green Lotus Temple collapses too quickly, it is not in the best interest of our sect. Moreover, concerning Taoist Qingchen’s Transforming Elixir and Forming Infant, not all of our sect’s Elders and Ancestors necessarily wish for his failure!"

"As long as we can remove Master Qingwei from the Temple Master position and cause the Golden Elixir Elders of Green Lotus Temple to dispute over the leadership, it will already demonstrate our sect’s strength and weaken Green Lotus Temple effectively. This was also the instruction given to me by the Sect Leader Uncle."

Upon hearing his answer, Junior Brother Xu immediately showed a look of realization and nodded continually, "I understand now, that does seem quite favorable indeed."
