Wēn Ruòhán was dead!

The Sunshot Campaign has concluded, bringing an end to the period of conflict. The Sects are gradually stabilizing and recovering from their losses. The Gūsū Lán Clan has successfully restored itself after the damage inflicted by the Wēns, thanks to the "generous support" of the Jīns. The Jīns provided much-needed financial assistance, which played a crucial role in the clan's recovery. Zéwú-jūn, also known as Lán Xīchén, one of the Twin Jades of Gūsū, shares a sworn brotherhood with Jīn Guāngyáo, also known as Liǎnfāng-zūn, an illegitimate son of Jīn Guāngshàn. This alliance further solidified the Lán Clan's restoration efforts.

The Qīnghé Niè Clan experienced a temporary decline in strength, but they were on track to regain their former glory. This resurgence was expected, given their history prior to the war, which was led by Chìfēng-zūn, also known as Niè Míngjué, the sworn brother of Zéwú-jūn and Liǎnfāng-zūn.

The Yúnmèng Jiāng Clan found itself in a vulnerable position, despite having been painstakingly rebuilt from the ground up. Among the clans, Sāndú Shèngshǒu, also known as Jiāng Wǎnyín, had become the youngest Sect Leader. The Yúnmèng Jiāng Clan's ability to hold its ground rested solely on the betrothal between Jiāng Yànlí and Jīn Zixuān, the only legitimate son of Jīn Guāngshàn. This alliance ensured their very existence and provided them with a necessary foundation to stand on.

The Lánlíng Jīn Clan, led by Jīn Guāngshàn, emerged unscathed and remained the only Clan untouched by the destruction. Standing in all its splendor, the Lánlíng Jīn Clan now reigns as the wealthiest and most powerful among the four great Clans.

With the long-awaited end of the war, a wave of relief washed over the Sects. The demise of the tyrant opened up the opportunity to discuss the matter of selecting a new Chief Cultivator in the Discussion Conference. Through a democratic process of voting and collective agreement, they ultimately decided on a Chief Cultivator who possessed both wealth and power, coupled with extensive experience that surpassed all other candidates.

Therefore, Jīn Guāngshàn was chosen as the Chief Cultivator, or more precisely, he asserted his position as the Chief Cultivator.

Jīn Guāngshàn's heart overflowed with joy. In fact, he found himself exuberantly pleased by how smoothly everything was falling into place in his favor. Finally, after harboring an unwavering desire, he had ascended to the coveted role of Chief Cultivator.

With this prestigious position, he held the reins to the world, free to wield his authority however he pleased, without encountering any opposition. He relished in the knowledge that every desire lay within his grasp - wealth, power, and an array of women, who will satisfy his lust.

However, amidst this abundance, a gnawing discontent festered within him. His current pursuit centered around obtaining the most formidable weapon ever to exist in the world. And if by some extraordinary chance he were to secure not only the weapon but also its brilliant creator, the Yīn Hǔ Fú, the Yin Tiger Tally crafted by the esteemed Yílíng Lǎozǔ, Wèi Wúxiàn. Obtaining the creator of this unparalleled weapon would be an extraordinary bonus to his already impressive conquests.
