Sect Leader Qiao arrived at the spiritual statue, lit an incense stick, inserted it into the furnace, and after a moment, bowed respectfully and said, "True Master, next month the junior will lead the sect to Mianxing Mountain for a decisive battle with Xuanyue. After this battle, it will be determined who is the rightful heir of the Da Mi Ancestor."
The eyes of the statue suddenly came alive, emitting a radiant light, followed by a grand sound from within, "Go forth with peace of mind; as long as I am at the mountain gate, there will be no concern."
Despite the assurance, Sect Leader Qiao's brow revealed a trace of worry, sensing that although Master Zheng's words seemed unchanged, his presence felt significantly weaker than before.
