He Xiaoyao said, "In terms of sheer strength, Peak Master Yan would actually be a much more fitting choice to take over, one who commands far more respect from everyone. It's just that the sect master has his own considerations, and as ordinary immortal cultivation disciples, it's not really our place to comment. We can only respect the immortal sect's decision."
Yan Fulai nodded and said, "To be honest with you two young brothers, I wasn't convinced in my heart either, but my wife strongly advised me against it. She told me that if I had wanted to become the sect leader, I should have worked hard for it long ago, and at my age, what is the use of fighting for it now? Actually, I have no desire to be the sect leader myself; it's just that I felt a bit unconvinced in my heart, feeling that I am no worse than anyone else. Why wasn't I considered first? Haha, my perspective is a bit too narrow, not even matching my wife's."
Li Dahai said, "Peak Master Yan's noble character and frankness in speaking your mind command my utmost admiration! Come, I propose a toast to the peak master!"
