Over the past few years, Kang Li noticed a gradual decline in his cultivation. Regardless of his efforts, progress seemed minimal, falling significantly short of his previous prowess.
While cultivating, doubts arose, leading him to suspect that, as the Clan Leader, he had directed too much attention to trivial clan matters. This diversion had likely contributed to the stagnation in his cultivation. Accepting the responsibilities inherent in leading the clan, he resigned himself to the idea that his personal cultivation might not see improvement.
However…
A revelation unfolded just two days ago.
Kang Shi discreetly approached him alongside Gao Zhuo from the Medicine Sect, investing considerable time in examination. It was only then that Kang Li discovered the true cause behind his stagnant cultivation—it was not the consequence of trivial concerns but rather the insidious influence of a slow-acting poison. Had the discovery been delayed, not only his cultivation but even his life could have been in peril.
Now, the question lingered: Who was responsible for poisoning him?
Several suspects arose, and Kang Li couldn’t help but cast a wary eye toward the First Elder. Over the years, the First Elder had wielded significant power and harbored ambitions. Furthermore, Kang Yan, his son, had eloped with Ziluo.
How could he place trust in the First Elder after such events?
He suspected that the First Elder had ulterior motives for urging Kang Shi to join the Medicine Sect. Kang Shi would likely become a pawn under his control.
This was something Kang Li could not allow.
Therefore, he opposed Kang Shi’s move to the Medicine Sect.
Two days ago, Kang Li also scrutinized Kang Shi’s cultivation. Fortunately, Kang Shi had shown improvement. This boded well for the upcoming competition; Kang Shi might emerge victorious.
Even if he didn’t.
In his heart, Kang Li leaned towards the idea of leaving the clan when the time came. With the First Elder displaying ambition, it would be acceptable if Kang Li still possessed the ability to safeguard Kang Shi. However, if he couldn’t provide adequate protection, leaving the clan seemed a safer option.
Considering these factors, Kang Li became even more reluctant to acquiesce to the First Elder’s request.
Kang Li locked eyes with the First Elder. “I acknowledge that your intentions are for Shi’er’s well-being. Ultimately, everyone has witnessed Shi’er’s growth and naturally wishes for his prosperity.”
“…”
“However, each person has their own destiny. If Shi’er encounters a cultivation impasse, so be it. Whether he remains within the clan or ventures elsewhere, it is his life.”
“…”
“If he disapproves of the Medicine Sect, let it be.”
“…”
“Despite being the Clan Leader, I adhere to the same rules as everyone else.”
“…”
“I appreciate your efforts in this matter,” the Clan Leader expressed with gratitude.
Initially wearing a smile, the First Elder’s expression immediately soured upon grasping Kang Li’s sentiments. His face turned cold, and he made no attempt to conceal his displeasure.
Having secured control over the clan, the First Elder exuded confidence, making his irritation more apparent.
Despite his well-intentioned words, Kang Li remained unyielding after considerable time. Wasn’t he aware of his current circumstances? The First Elder had made arrangements for Kang Shi’s benefit, yet there was no appreciation.
The First Elder’s chest swelled with anger.
“Clan Leader, this is a rare opportunity. Are you truly not going to weigh your options carefully?” The First Elder questioned with a hint of hostility, suggesting consequences if Kang Li did not comply.
