Chapter 2071 - 2072: Dispelling Doubts
In fact, Li Ba’s residence is within the Kunwu Sect!
This was no longer a secret, because of Li Ba’s sister, he almost turned against the Li Family. It was only because the Sect Master personally mediated that Li Ba finally reconciled with the Li Family and didn’t completely sever ties.
However, this was just on the surface. To say that he held no grudges against the Li Family would be a lie!
The Sect was naturally aware of this, which is why they arranged for him and his sister to be within the Kunwu Sect.
This act demonstrates the Sect’s regard for him, and now that he has obtained the candidacy for Sect Master, he is at least a Deputy Sect Master, having significantly risen in status.
His residence is in the back mountain, where generally only the Elders’ Cave Mansions are located. Of course, the entire back mountain stretches wide and is a vast mountain range; how many Elders truly reside within is a mystery!
Moreover, former Sect Masters, after stepping down, become Supreme Elders and also seclude themselves in the back mountain!
In the Martial Realm, strength is revered. Therefore, the term for a Sect Master is not very long. There is no specific timeframe; one steps down to meditate upon feeling their realm is about to break through.
The current case with the Sect Master is largely this situation; it has only been ten years since the last Sect Master’s selection.
However, the transition of Sect Masters is a slow process, and these five candidates will still need substantial nurturing by the Sect for some time.
As soon as they reached the bounds of the back mountain, Ye Luo felt a heavy pressure!
Or rather, he felt pressure on his body. This was completely the aura emitted by the powerhouses!
