Above in the Sect Master Hall, Xue Ping and Qin Shenwu awaited Jiang Chengxuan's response.
The hall fell into a profound silence, where even a pin drop could be heard.
"I—"
Finally, Jiang Chengxuan raised his head and spoke slowly.
"I, Jiang Chengxuan, am willing to accept the position of Sect Master of the Haoran Sect. From this moment on, I will dedicate myself to the welfare of the Haoran Sect, tirelessly serve its disciples, and uphold the ethos that if the sect exists, I exist; if the sect perishes, so do I."
His resolute oath seemed to have the power to split stone, filled with an unwavering will and determination.
Jiang Chengxuan was never one to seek the spotlight. Rather than leading the pack, he preferred to pursue the Dao on his own terms, free from entanglements.
However, his achievements in the Floodgate Realm today were undoubtedly rooted in the foundation provided by the Haoran Sect.
