Due to the sudden disappearance of Wei Dongliu, the war between the Demon Cult's Six Paths and the Orthodox Sect ended abruptly, soon fading away without a trace.
As the subject of anger, the Mortal Life Path quickly became the target of public criticism, being demanded by the Nether Ghost Path to provide an explanation.
The members within the Mortal Life Path were also quite bewildered because the Sect Master Wei Dongliu seemingly disappeared overnight, unreachable by any means.
After returning to the sect, Deputy Sect Master Jiang Lian presided over affairs for a few days before announcing her intention to search for the Sect Master's whereabouts, then left Mount Wutai.
The authority of the sect fell into the hands of Wei Dongliu's primary disciple, Guo Jin, who was only at the Golden Core Realm. Therefore, many elders were not convinced, but had to grudgingly accept due to Jiang Lian's influence.
