After returning to the sect, Li Qing truly had quite a few matters awaiting him.
First were the decisions and handling of the sect's important affairs. Many had piled up, all matters that the other Supreme Elders could not make a decision on for the time being, so they had been left for Li Qing.
Fortunately, none of these matters were urgent, so it was not too late to decide on them after Li Qing returned to the sect.
Of course, if Li Qing had truly gone traveling for ten or twenty years without returning, that would have been another matter entirely.
Foremost among them was some intelligence and news sent from the Great Desolation Region. Li Qing first began reading the intelligence jade slips related to these matters.
With a slight stir of his divine sense, he immediately took in the relevant intelligence recorded within the jade slip into his sea of consciousness.
About half a year ago, a great demon at the Mid Humanoid Transformation stage had appeared in the Great Desolation Region. It was a mysterious demon crocodile that called itself the Crocodile Venerable!
This Crocodile Venerable swiftly united all the remaining members of the Demon Race across the Great Desolation Region, forming a powerful demon alliance and swallowing up a considerable amount of the region's territory.
Meanwhile, the Yin Puppet Sect, Ghost Sword Sect, and Blood Spirit Sect—the three Devil Dao Sects that dominated the entire Great Desolation Region—had, as expected, begun fighting among themselves after sweeping away the righteous sect forces.
It was precisely because of this that the Crocodile Venerable had been given an opportunity to exploit.
"Just as I expected, these Devil Dao Sects will never settle down. Once the righteous path's great enemy was gone, they truly started fighting among themselves."
