Chen Dengming was stunned, feeling increasingly that the current atmosphere was off, and was about to speak when...
At this moment, Xing Huiguang suddenly held up the [Longevity Jade Seal] in his hands, earnest and serious, and handed it to Chen Dengming, saying, "It's our Longevity Sect's long-standing rule that if the current Sect Leader breaks through the Nascent Soul stage, they should voluntarily abdicate and pass the [Longevity Jade Seal] and the position of Sect Leader to the next one.
This [Longevity Jade Seal] should have been given to you many years ago, now that it's handed over, I have fulfilled my duty!"
Chen Dengming sat there dumbfounded, staring at the [Longevity Jade Seal] that was handed over to him.
Although he had sensed something amiss early on, the reality of his ascension to Sect Leader was happening now. It felt absurd, almost comical, and he was dazed.
The moment he collected his thoughts, Chen Dengming hastily stood up, "Brother Xing..."
"Hey!"
