After confirming that Chi Yuanqing was unharmed, Lu Feng finally felt a great weight lift from his heart. With Chi Yuanqing's current strength and condition, he would be more than capable of rescuing Azure Mountain from fire and water.
Over their brief time together, which lasted more than an hour,
Lu Feng demonstrated several sword intents he had grasped deeply for Chi Yuanqing. He also imparted part of the profound truths of the Void Origin Divine Art, so that Chi Yuanqing could go further in his comprehension of sword intent.
Only by abandoning reliance on the single Blazing Sun Swordplay and letting a hundred flowers bloom could he better win over the masses within the Azure Mountain Sword Sect.
In the end, Lu Feng intended to pass the Azure Mountain Sword Sect Master's Sect Leader Sword Token to Chi Yuanqing and have him return to take charge of the sect, but Chi Yuanqing adamantly refused.
Chi Yuanqing ultimately could not get past the fact that his master, Xia Weiyang, had died by his own hand. He felt unworthy of such a heavy responsibility.
After Lu Feng patiently reasoned with him and analyzed the Azure Mountain Sword Sect's current situation, Chi Yuanqing finally agreed to accept the Sect Leader Sword Token. However, he accepted it in another capacity, more as a temporary custodian, until a suitable new sect leader emerged.
In the very end, after some hesitation, Lu Feng still passed on to Chi Yuanqing the method Xun Changguan had taught him for suppressing Demonic Nature. Though Chi Yuanqing likely would not need it again anytime soon, there was no telling whether one day his strength might run dry and his Demonic Nature might erupt once more. When that time came, it would at least provide him with a way out.
