Han Yu believed Mistress Love Wine completely.
She was dangerous and intelligent, but her temperament truly lacked the disposition needed to govern an enormous sect. She was more suited for manipulation and influence than leadership itself.
Mistress Love Wine continued calmly now.
"Besides, supporting someone strong brings benefits too. Stability. Influence. Protection. Resources."
She glanced toward Lady Rot Rose.
"And Rot Rose fulfills agreements properly."
Lady Rot Rose merely smiled faintly without commenting.
Next Daoist Snake Face spoke.
His voice remained calm and measured as always.
"The position of Patriarch requires more than power."
Han Yu looked toward him.
Daoist Snake Face continued.
"It requires constant visibility. Political engagement. Public influence. Endless interaction with people."
Then he lightly tapped the table.
"I dislike people."
Han Yu almost laughed internally.
That explanation somehow perfectly suited the man.
