Within the Tianyuan Sect, all the elders gathered together for such a large meeting, yet the sect leader was nowhere to be seen.

Elder Hanruo, an old man with blue pupils, slammed his teacup on the table: "Wuhen is still young and doesn't know his limits. We are his elders. What difference would it make if we said it to his face?"

"As the sect leader, he did too many things that violated the sect's teachings. The character '缘' (yuan, meaning fate or destiny) of the Heavenly Fate Sect stands in the middle. He secretly killed demonic cultivators, breaking the '缘,' which made the sect the target of criticism," Elder Qingyu said, sitting next to Elder Hanruo.

The powerful figures within the sect were all talking at once, and before long, someone suggested that Xu Wuhen should step down.

This person is Lin Feng, who is at the Two Elements Realm and works in the Criminal Law Pavilion. Although he doesn't have much power, he has been in the sect for just as long as Elder Han Ruo, so his words carry a lot of weight.

However, the mere mention of Xu Wuhen relinquishing his position as sect leader caused everyone present to gasp in shock.

Elder Qingyu frowned slightly and shouted, "Lin Feng, I was initially unwilling to let Xu Wuhen become the sect leader, and I am still not satisfied now. But if you dare to spread rumors and spout nonsense about making Xu Wuhen step down, I will be the first to kill you."

Lin Feng picked up his tea, took a small sip, glanced at Elder Qingyu calmly, and shook his head, saying, "In terms of seniority, you should call me Senior Brother; in terms of cultivation, I should call you Venerable Qingyu. I shouldn't be dissatisfied with your reprimand, but..."

"What nonsense are you spouting? Remember this: as long as you don't reach the Nascent Soul stage, I, Qingyu, will never take you seriously." Elder Qingyu showed no mercy and turned to leave.

Lin Feng glanced at Elder Hanruo and then left the room.

The harassment from the demonic cultivators was endless, and Xu Wuhen had to guard against them day and night, which was very mentally taxing.

Rumors were spreading again within the sect, and he felt even more exhausted, both physically and mentally.

When his mind is in turmoil, the scene of his father comforting him will appear before his eyes.

"Wuhen, close your eyes and meditate with me."

His father was a great hero outside, but at home he was very kind and loving. He never demanded great achievements from his children and always let them do as they pleased.

Fortunately, the siblings all became accomplished individuals, living up to the name of the Wuxu family.

Xu Wuheng got up, took his father's ashes, held them in his arms, and closed his eyes.

He kept asking himself what his father would do if he were still alive and this happened.

Will they act as recklessly as I have, failing to properly deal with the demonic cultivators and getting themselves into trouble?

"Are you OK."

Xu Wuhen carefully placed the ashes and looked at Chen An, who had a puzzled expression, her earlobes turning bright red.

Chen An yawned, stepped forward, and sat down opposite him. "I brought 100,000 men, thirteen Yin-Yang Realm cultivators, fifty Nascent Soul cultivators, and seven thousand Core Formation cultivators."

A bright light flashed, and when Xu Wuhen looked at Chen An again, his face was full of terror.

Chen An slowly turned around, and the woman in green pointed her sword at her right shoulder.

"Uncle Qingyu, she is not a demonic cultivator." Xu Wuhen stepped forward and shielded Chen An behind him, only then did the woman opposite him give up.

"Lin Feng said he wants you to hand over the position of sect leader. There are quite a few people in the sect who have the same idea. Good luck." Elder Qingyu casually sheathed her sword, glanced at Chen An, and instructed, "Be careful."

After saying this, she left, leaving Chen An and Xu Wuhen staring at each other in bewilderment.

In the past, Chen An had never gotten this close to Xu Wuhen. The other party looked like a teenager and had a cold personality, which was not very likable.

When they stood together, she realized that Xu Wuhen was not as tall as her.

Xu Wuhen saw through her thoughts at a glance. When he looked down, a bitter smile appeared on his lips. Looking at Chen An turning away without caring, he felt somewhat relieved and said calmly, "When you left, I never thought you would come back."

"You don't trust me that much?" Chen An replied casually. After hesitating for a moment, he took out a pill given to him by the system from the dragon bone, glanced at Xi Le who was cultivating, and smiled.

"for you."

Xu Wuhen twitched his nose as he smelled the medicinal fragrance, but did not raise his hand.

"I won't hurt you." Chen An placed the pills on the table and said with a smile, "If I had known you didn't trust me, I wouldn't have come back."

Xu Wuhen stared blankly at the pills, completely unaware that Chen An had walked out.

Coming to his senses, he placed his hand on his chest, listening to his increasingly clear heartbeat, and told himself to try one last time.

There's not much to see at Tianyuan Sect; the neat and orderly buildings are rather depressing.

Chen An walked through several alleys before heading to the Cultivation Technique Pavilion.

Halfway there, she was forced to stop by a murderous aura. Just as she was about to take out her ebony sword, Elder Qingyu, whom she had met not long ago, came out.

A cold glint flashed in her eyes as she said in a chilling voice, "Little girl, the elders in the sect all know about your secret killing of demonic cultivators with Wuhen. Wuhen is the sect leader, so even if they are unhappy, there's nothing they can do. But you're different."

Chen An felt much more at ease when he saw her arrive, and clasped his hands in a fist and said, "With you here, I'm not afraid."

"Then I'll take you back. Don't do it again."

Chen An bowed again and followed Elder Qingyu about half a meter behind, walking quickly toward Xu Wuhen's residence.

After a long while, the murderous aura that had emanated from afar finally dissipated.

Back in the small, dilapidated house provided by Xu Wuhen, Chen An leaned against the headboard. Chaos was inevitable within the Tianyuan Sect, and she needed to leave before Xu Wuhen could handle it.

Ke Xu Wuhen was in deep meditation, and even when Chen An was in front of him, he ignored him.

"Do you think I look good like this?" Fu Gui jumped out of the dragon bone, crossed his arms over his chest, waiting for Chen An to praise him.

Tank also came out, looking at Fugui with a proud expression.

Upon seeing Fugui's expression, Chen An couldn't help but raise both thumbs up, expressing his sincerest appreciation for the meticulously crafted model face.

This face, if you look at the individual features, is flawless; and if you look at the whole face, it is flawless as well.

Being able to pinch one's own face is truly enviable. Chen An thought to himself, if he had that skill, he would definitely pinch a face even more beautiful than this one.

Tank saw that Fugui was still showing off his good looks, so it raised its big head and bumped Fugui's knee, then pointed at Chen'an with its nose, signaling him to speak.

Fu Gui kicked the tank with his foot in dissatisfaction and said, "He wants to use his wings."

Chen An raised an eyebrow, squatted down, and stroked the tank's head, saying, "You can take the contents of the keel yourselves; you don't need to ask me."

Tank's eyes were full of light. It nuzzled Chen An's hand and rushed into the keel in a hurry.

This was the first time Chen An had seen it so anxious, and he smiled with relief.

Looking at Fugui again, it is holding up a mirror, admiring its own magnificent good looks.

He abruptly put down the mirror and asked Chen An anxiously, "Do you think the female cats won't like it if I go looking for them like this?"

Chen An nodded: "They won't like it. If you go out like this, you'll only attract cultivators. If you want to find a female cat, you'll have to use your beast form."

Fu Gui nodded thoughtfully, then leaped out of the window and headed straight for the back mountain.

Chen An stared at the afterimage, muttering to herself in disbelief, "Am I going to be a grandmother so soon?"
