The True Venerables of Lianxing had come up with a rotation system, but Qu Jianlei did not agree with it.
He stated it very directly: they were worried about being affected themselves, but the Houde Cultivators would worry even more that their realm would be affected!
An ominous aura was very likely contagious. This was mysticism, but Qu Jianlei believed that the vast majority of people in Houde Realm would think so.
It would not matter if the True Venerables of Lianxing briefly entered and left, but if they stayed in Houde for a long time, it would be strange if it did not provoke widespread criticism.
True Venerable Qu currently had a fairly good reputation within the realm, and he did not want to ruin his own name at all.

Yet they also had to admit that this was the truth. When a realm was in danger, even its cultivators would be discriminated against.
Qu Jianlei's suggestion was for them to station themselves near the Channel Entrance, and he would send a summons if anything came up.
But in truth, he had already made up his mind that unless it was absolutely unavoidable, he would never ask these people for help.
