Therefore, Taiping Dao’s reputation had always been quite good.
Moreover, in recent years, Taiping Dao frequently sent disciples out to travel. During their travels, they constantly eliminated monsters and demons, upheld the righteous path, and left behind a good na in various domains.
The neighboring Immortal Sects also had a very favorable impression of the disciples from Taiping Dao.
All these factors combined ant that Taiping Dao was held in very high regard.
That so many people ca to offer their congratulations at the Succession Ceremony was a testant to Taiping Dao’s favorable position in everyone’s hearts.
"Esteed fellow Daoists, I am entrusted by the Head Brother and esteed by the Elder Taishang to assu the position of School Leader..."
Under the watchful eyes of the True Persons, Lu Yuan received the Great Seal, then, with one hand holding the Seal, he looked at the audience and delivered his succession speech.
After a lengthy speech of several thousand characters, he finally stopped, feeling like he still had much left to say.
He had spent too many years secluded in the shadows, engaging in Closing Door Cultivation, and aside from a few avatars, he hadn’t had the chance to chat with anyone.
After a few hundred years, he had grown sowhat stifled.
Now, seizing the opportunity, he couldn’t help but speak at length.
Fortunately, all the True Persons were patient and listened attentively to what he had to say.
Especially Qing Immortal Sect and Jiuzhou Immortal Sect, being neighbors, they were extra attentive to the policies and guidelines of the next School Leader of Taiping Dao.
Although Lu Yuan’s succession words were long-winded, so of his remarks did hint at the future attitudes of Taiping Dao.
In summary, the ssage was one of stability.
No changes, no innovation, and no disturbance to the status quo; he intended to follow the previous School Leader’s governance philosophy, continuing to develop Taiping Dao peacefully without getting involved in external conflicts.
Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Taiping Dao’s current strength and status affected the entire dynamics of the Changqing Domain.
If the new School Leader of Taiping Dao were soone who liked to stir things up and sought great achievents, then these hard-won peaceful years might soon face turbulence again.
Currently, both Qing Immortal Sect and Jiuzhou Immortal Sect were in a period of strength recovery, and none of them wanted to see any changes to the current structure.
Even delegates from other Immortal Sects in surrounding domains were pleased and comforted by the governance philosophy of Taiping Dao’s new School Leader.
Truly worthy of the na Taiping Dao, their actions always aid for peace.
That’s the way it should be.
What good cos from fighting and killing?
To seclude oneself within the Mountain Gate, exchange Dao Law with fellow disciples, explore the path of immortality.
When weary, go out to seek wonders, make friends with other Daoists, travel the world, soar to the heavens or burrow into the earth—that is what Immortals should do.
Sects like Qing Immortal Sect and Jiuzhou Immortal Gate, who only know slaughter, have already deviated from the proper path of Immortal Sects and are veering towards the evil path.
Such people are despised by many of their peers.
"I am delighted to assu the position of School Leader at a ti when so many esteed Daoists have co to celebrate.
On this auspicious and wonderful day, it is fitting for us to discuss the Dao together. I am willing to hold a Dharma Assembly, to exchange Dao Law within the mountains, to progress together, and to seek the path of immortality.
If the esteed Daoists do not mind, I invite you all to join this grand occasion."
After finishing his prepared speech, Lu Yuan extended the invitation at the conclusion.
As soone who had suddenly erged, although he had assud the position of School Leader of Taiping Dao, the Immortals from various parties around him were not at all familiar with him.
And as a School Leader, it was inevitable that he would deal with various forces in the future; how could he carry out diplomatic affairs if he did not recognize anyone and was not familiar with them?
What better opportunity than this Succession Ceremony to invite everyone to stay and discuss the mysterious Dao and partake in Immortal Technique together?
By organizing a Dharma Assembly, he could beco acquainted with the True Persons and establish good relationships.
He could also use this opportunity to talk to so people and promote so cooperation.
Thinking this way, Lu Yuan’s gaze drifted toward one side. The Real Mystery Taoist, standing a short distance to his right, was watching him closely.
Their gazes t, and the latter revealed a friendly smile, his eyes filled with a probing interest.
Lu Yuan did not respond much; instead, he turned to look at another side, where Yang Jihua, the ssenger from Qing Immortal Sect, was curiously looking at him.
This forr newcor to Qing Immortal Sect had remarkably survived the previous great battle and was fortunate to live on.
And after over three hundred years of trials, Yang Jihua had also made rapid progress.
Not only had his Cultivation broken through to Mid-level Human Immortal, but his renown had also widely spread within the Changqing Domain.
Everyone praised him as an Earth Immortal Seed, and in a thousand years, he had the potential to achieve the status of Earth Immortal.
Song Xiren indeed treated Yang Jihua as a key figure to cultivate, entrusting him with heavy responsibilities and allocating three nations for him to govern over the years.
The fate of the three nations could nourish an Earth Immortal.
It was clear what Qing Immortal Sect intended for him.
They hoped he would beco the next Earth Immortal, a new pillar for the sect.
Sending such a person as an emissary to Taiping Dao, Qing Immortal Sect’s attention to Lu Yuan, the new School Leader, was very evident.
They wanted to strengthen the relationship, deepen the alliance between the two sects.
Think about it.
Who was Yi Dancheng, the previous School Leader of Taiping Dao?
He was a close friend of the Jiuzhou Immortal Sect, often making trips to the Western Domain, visiting his Jiuzhou fellow Daoists there.
He even traveled beyond the domain to socialize with True Persons from other branches of Jiuzhou.
All his actions clearly demonstrated his preference for Jiuzhou.
With such a School Leader, it was only natural for Taiping Dao and Jiuzhou to grow closer, with relations continually becoming more intimate.
Seeing this gradual convergence of the two sects, how could Qing Immortal Sect not be anxious?
