"Don't let my presence impact the meeting, and I'm no longer the Sea God Pavilion Master. You may treat me as a guest elder," he said to the Sea God Pavilion Master beside him. "Times are not the same as they used to be, and I have no intention of meddling in the academy's affairs. Zichen, please take over."
The Sea God Pavilion Master looked at him deeply, "If you are willing, I believe no one would object. And you, most of all, deserve..."
Tang Wulin raised his hand to stop her from continuing, "We've already agreed, haven't we? I will stay at the academy and help out as needed. But I'm no longer suited to be a leader. That's not what I want. What I needed to do ten thousand years ago, I have done. Today, ten thousand years later, I hope to give more time to myself and my family. To make up for my shortcomings."
How many people can say they have done everything that needed to be done? How many have the right to say so? Yet everyone present understood that Tang Wulin truly did.
