This is merely an announcement for now.
At this moment, on the stage, after a while, seeing that no one was speaking, Li Daoran addressed the crowd.
"Now that there are no doubts among the brothers, I declare that this meeting is hereby concluded."
"Very well!"
Under Li Daoranās words, all the Peak Masters nodded and then retreated.
However, Chen Changāan didnāt leave. The reason Li Daoran had called everyone here this time,
and even dragged out the Great Elder, is definitely not just for such a simple announcement.
As expected, in the next moment, only Li Daoranās voice was heard.
"Brother Chen, please stay."
Then Li Daoran walked over, approaching Chen Changāan.
Seeing this, Chen Changāan wanted to say that he had never moved at all.
But he still asked, "Is there something else, Sect Leader Elder Brother?"
"Brother Chen, please follow me."
Li Daoran nodded and then signaled Chen Changāan to follow him.
Chen Changāan was puzzled, but still followed, and the Great Elder Li Xuandao who had come in with them also followed.
Shortly after, the three of them arrived in a side hall.
"Sect Leader Elder Brother, can you tell me whatās going on now?" Chen Changāan immediately asked.
Li Daoran said, "Brother Chen, hereās the thing, our Sectās reputation has been blooming lately because of you."
"So, after discussing with the Great Elder, we thought about attracting a new batch of disciples into the Sect."
Having said that, Li Daoran looked at Chen Changāan.
Chen Changāan had no objections to this. He nodded immediately and said,
"Sect Leader Elder Brother, if you want to admit more disciples, just do it."
"You decide on this matter yourself, I have no views."
"However, Sect Leader Elder Brother, your expression seems to indicate thereās still something else?"
As he said this, Chen Changāan noticed that Li Daoranās eyebrows were slightly furrowed, as if he was troubled by something.
"Brother Chen, thereās nothing else."
"Just that... just that."
Li Daoran shook his head, denying Chen Changāanās assumption.
However, when he said "just that", his expression showed some hesitation.
"Elder Brother, you may speak your mind."
Chen Changāan immediately asked, not knowing what Li Daoran was hesitant about, and then said with a slight smile.
Hearing Chen Changāanās words, Li Daoran seemed to make up his mind, and immediately said,
"Brother Chen, hereās the thing, after a discussion with the Great Elder, we have concluded that with your current status, itās not quite appropriate for you to stay in the Sect."
"Now you are revered as the Supreme Saint of the Confucian Path."
"And the Tianshui Sect, after all, is just a small sect. Keeping you here seems a bit demeaning to your identity."
"Thatās why, after a discussion with the Great Elder, weāve decided to assign all the mountains under Daozang and the entire region east of Liu Yunzhou to you."
"To provide you with resources to establish a new sect."
"In the future, Brother Chen, start your own sect."
After saying this, Li Daoranās expression showed some hesitation.
This decision to let Chen Changāan leave and establish his own sect was made after a great deal of consideration.
After all, with Chen Changāanās present status, it just isnāt fitting to continue staying in the Tianshui Sect. His growth would be greatly restricted.
Moreover, people like Chen Changāan, the founder of many methods and a Supreme Saint, usually have their own Dao Paths.
Their Dao Paths are their Dao, and they can have the opportunity to achieve the status of Saint in the future.
Thus, Li Daoran and others chose to let go.
Hearing this, Chen Changāan was taken aback for a moment, then laughed. He looked at Li Daoran and said,
"Sect Leader Elder Brother, have you heard something?"
What Li Daoran and his companions could think of, Chen Changāan could naturally think of as well.
However, Chen Changāan did not believe that someone as smart as Li Daoran did not understand that there would be no impact, whether he established a sect or not.
This must be because someone had said something in front of them.
"Brother Chen, no."
"We havenāt heard anything."
Li Daoran shook his head. This was indeed their true thought.
Chen Changāan also shook his head:
"Well, you donāt need to worry about it, Sect Leader Elder Brother. Letās just leave it at that."
"Iāll pass on establishing my own Dao Path."
"The Daozang Mountain originally had the Confucian Path. Now it has just been picked up by me."
"Now that itās become a Dao, it just means that the Confucian Path of our Daozang Mountain has achieved Dao."
"In this way, the legacy left by our ancestors is preserved by me, and thatās all."
Chen Changāanās words were heavy and sincere.
In his view, there was truly no need to fuss over this matter.
"Alright, then, Brother Chen, we were indeed rash to bring this up."
Hearing Chen Changāanās words, Li Daoran immediately apologized by nodding his head, and the Great Elder Li Xuandao by his side also did the same.
And Chen Changāanās words also relieved their concerns.
The reason the Tianshui Sect originally set up 108 peaks was to foster competition among them.
In the history, there were instances where some peaks became individually strong.
Even Daozang Mountain, not long ago, used to be one of the strongest peaks in Tianshui Sect, its power comparable to half of the whole Tianshui Sect.
And the current situation is nothing more than the resurgence of such peak moments.
