This night, Yans Biluo transformed from a young girl into a young woman.

This night, Wang Xiaoqiang was exhilarated to the peak.

This night, countless men in White Emperor City were heartbroken!

Yans Biluo, their dream lover, the flawless jade maiden in their hearts, their pure goddess, had become someone's wife, Wang Xiaoqiang's woman!

Wang Xiaoqiang stayed at the Yans Family for a week.

During this week, aside from spending a honeymoon with his two brides, sharing the joy of marriage, he also took steps to handle matters of the Five Spirit Sect.

On this day, Wang Xiaoqiang used a communication talisman to contact Huang Ce.

Huang Ce started by praising Wang Xiaoqiang's bravery, noting that not only had he become an immortal hero, but he had also become the supreme leader, bringing glory to the Yellow Dragon Empire. Moreover, he had slain the North Sea Demon King and the Purple-Eyed Demon Emperor, thus lifting two major threats not only for the Yellow Dragon Empire but for the entire human clan.

Wang Xiaoqiang almost fainted from Huang Ce's praise.

However, he realized that the supreme rankings indeed transcended borders, earning great reputation throughout the Immortal Realm. As a person and official of the Yellow Dragon Empire, Wang Xiaoqiang achieving the title of supreme leader brought honor and prestige to the empire, thereby strengthening imperial authority.

Seizing the moment of Huang Ce's delight, Wang Xiaoqiang reported the affairs of the Five Spirit Sect, explaining the causes and consequences and the current dire situation of the sect.

Upon hearing this, Huang Ce said, "I've heard about this. The Five Spirit Sect Leader, Five Spirit True Immortal, colluded with ghost cultivators. He deserved his death, and his death alone cannot atone for his crimes. The entire nine clans must be executed to serve as a warning! Xiaoqiang, you will carry this out..."

Wang Xiaoqiang was shocked. Though he had often declared that he would execute the entire clan of Five Spirit True Immortal, he hesitated to follow through in reality. He immediately persuaded, "Your Majesty, isn't the punishment of executing nine clans too severe?"

"Without heavy punishment, we cannot quell the anger of the people nor warn the world. The nine clans must be executed!" Huang Ce insisted decisively, "If you cannot bear to do it, I can send someone to handle it."

Seeing Huang Ce was adamant, Wang Xiaoqiang changed the topic, "Your Majesty, the Five Spirit Sect is now leaderless and in disarray. I think we need to select a new Sect Leader as soon as possible."

"Hmm, this matter should be left to you. As Lord Marquis, you will decree the election of a new Sect Leader..."

Wang Xiaoqiang said, "The Five Spirit Sect lacks capable and respected candidates. Forcefully selecting a leader may not stabilize the situation and could lead to future disputes..."

"Hmm, I see." Huang Ce pondered, "Then you shall act as the interim Sect Leader."

Wang Xiaoqiang had been waiting for these words, and he immediately agreed.

Huang Ce then said, "I will have an imperial edict written and send it tomorrow. You just wait at the Five Spirit Sect for the announcement!"

Hearing this, Wang Xiaoqiang felt a sense of joy. He thought to himself, soon he would not only be the Lord of the Immortal River, an official of the empire, and an immortal hero, but also the leader of a sect. He had never experienced what it felt like to be a Sect Leader!

With these thoughts, Wang Xiaoqiang returned to the bridal chamber and, embracing his two lovely wives, fell asleep.

Next day.

Wang Xiaoqiang rose early, with Little Qing and Yans Biluo dressing him attentively and thoughtfully.

Yans Biluo had been trained by Wang Xiaoqiang to be as obedient as a female slave, becoming as meek as Little Qing. Moreover, the two sister-in-laws were getting along harmoniously, which greatly pleased Wang Xiaoqiang.

After having breakfast served by his two beautiful wives, Wang Xiaoqiang headed to the Five Spirit Sect.

The Five Spirit Sect was now leaderless, with various factions vying openly and secretly. The Elder Council and four Vice Sect Leaders were at odds, and the elite disciples were forming their own factions, unwilling to submit. They all desperately hoped for Wang Xiaoqiang to take charge of the sect...

These factions, fearing Wang Xiaoqiang, did not dare to stir up conflicts or declare themselves as Sect Leader. They simply waited to see what would happen.

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang enter the sect, the elite disciples gathered around him with questions, mainly about the selection of the new Sect Leader. Wang Xiaoqiang was well aware but did not disclose his thoughts directly to them.

Accompanied by the elite disciples, Wang Xiaoqiang toured the ancient sect, observing its surroundings.

The Five Spirit Sect had numerous disciples, with a significant number of female disciples. Some were exceptionally beautiful, with outstanding qualities and refined manners.

When these female disciples saw Wang Xiaoqiang, they looked at him with respect and admiration. Some with bold gazes even flirted with him.

While Wang Xiaoqiang outwardly ignored them, he inwardly wondered whether he could enforce some unspoken rules with a few female disciples after becoming Sect Leader!?

Soon, they reached the Pill Room of the Five Spirit Sect. The Pill Room, built from massive stones, was covered in ancient vines, emanating historical magnificence and grandeur.

As a thousand-year-old sect, the Five Spirit Sect had deep roots, evident from its impressive Pill Room.

Standing at the entrance of the Pill Room, Wang Xiaoqiang was enveloped by a rich fragrance of medicinal herbs, feeling refreshed and relaxed.

For a major sect, the Pill Room was its wealth and heritage, akin to a small treasury, extremely valuable!

However, Wang Xiaoqiang did not rush in. After all, he was not yet the Sect Leader. While no one would dare to object, it might create resentment, which would be detrimental to future developments.

Soon, the imperial envoy sent by Huang Ce arrived at the Five Spirit Sect in an immortal palanquin, accompanied by an Assistant Minister from the Ministry of Punishment, who was an Immortal Sage level cultivator with great power. Behind him followed a team of soldiers at the fifth stage of the True Immortal Realm or above.

Upon seeing the imperial envoy, the members of the Five Spirit Sect immediately rushed to greet him, with the three Vice Sect Leaders, the Elder Council, and the disciples all kneeling in fear and reverence.

Wang Xiaoqiang naturally did not kneel. He did not kneel even in front of Huang Ce, let alone the imperial envoy or the Assistant Minister from the Ministry of Punishment.

On the contrary, when the envoy took out the imperial decree, the Assistant Minister from the Ministry of Punishment and a team of soldiers also knelt down.

With everyone except Wang Xiaoqiang kneeling, the envoy began to announce the imperial decree:

"By the mandate of heaven, the Emperor decrees, in view of Wang Xiaoqiang's wisdom and decisiveness in exposing the traitorous Five Spirit True Immortal's collusion with ghost cultivators and eradicating the ghost cultivators in White Emperor City, rendering immortal meritorious service, he is hereby appointed to govern the Five Spirit Sect. Despite his death, the crimes of Five Spirit True Immortal cannot be atoned for. His nine clans are to be executed as a warning to others. Thus decreed..."

Wang Xiaoqiang accepted the decree, and then everyone stood up. The members of the Five Spirit Sect knelt again before Wang Xiaoqiang, shouting, "Congratulations on the new Sect Leader! May the Sect Leader reign for a thousand years!!"

Watching tens of thousands of people bow to him, Wang Xiaoqiang felt a rush of exhilaration and a great sense of achievement.

After letting everyone stand up, Wang Xiaoqiang instructed Yangg Hu and Mubao to lead the sect's disciples alongside the Assistant Minister from the Ministry of Punishment to execute the nine clans of Five Spirit True Immortal.

After taking charge of the Five Spirit Sect, the first thing Wang Xiaoqiang did was visit the Pill Room. (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to cast your vote and support. Mobile users, please read at m.qidian.com.)
