The Fallen Cloud Flying Boat, Murong's Departure, the Ten Great Golden Cores, and Luo Chen's Sweep

Murong Qinglian's departure would have a profound impact on the Luo Tian Association.

She had been there since the association was founded.

For a time, she had managed its finances, personnel, resources, merits, and many other affairs on Luo Chen's behalf.

Even after more departments were established and responsibilities divided ever more finely, Murong Qinglian remained indispensable as the association's membership grew.

If she suddenly stepped down as head of the Merit Hall, the Luo Tian Association would be thrown into chaos.

But at the same time!

If Murong Qinglian left now, the disruption would still be manageable.

Since Qin Liangchen's death, she had often been lost in grief.

The Luo Tian Association had therefore given her an extended leave.

At the Merit Hall, her deputy Sima Wenjie had been acting in her place.

Over two years, Sima Wenjie had become familiar with most of the hall's affairs.

So if she left, the Luo Tian Association would keep running without any major upheaval.

Of course, some important matters would still take time to hand over.

And Murong Qinglian was a responsible person.

Before leaving Skybillow for the Fallen Cloud Sect, she intended to pull herself together and personally guide Sima Wenjie.

She was determined not to leave a mess behind and simply walk away.

Her son Qin Yuanjiang supported and approved of her decision.

As it happened, the Fallen Cloud Sect disciples had come out on an assignment and needed time to complete it.

They agreed on a date when Qin Yuanjiang would personally return to escort his mother to the Fallen Cloud Sect.

In the meantime.

Luo Chen made no attempt to stop her.

Not only that, he planned to give Murong Qinglian an extraordinarily generous gift.

A brand-new set of top-grade Dharma Robes.
