Lu Li was still resting quietly to recuperate. Nobody was allowed to visit him for he was too weak. It was not his body or his soul, but his spirit that was vulnerable.
Blood of the Slayer was so overwhelming that it seemed to have burnt up all of his energy and consumed all of his vitality. Ding Gui and the other patriarchs of the Shennong Race did pour their energy of life to Lu Li. But that was an act of force. Lu Li had lost his own. He needed time for adjustment and self-healing.
Patriarchs of the Demon-slaying Hall were relieved to hear that Lu Li had woken up even though they could not visit him at the moment. The next day came with a piece of news. The patriarchs found it unacceptable, like a bolt from the blue.
Patriarch of Law Enforcement decided to retire from the position. He would assume no position at the Demon-slaying Hall and focus entirely on cultivation.
