Murong Qinglian's departure was a matter of great impact for the Luo Tian Creed.
She had been with the Luo Tian Creed since its very inception.
At one point, she managed finances, personnel, resources, merits, and various other affairs for Luo Chen.
Even as the Luo Tian Creed saw the emergence of more departments with increasingly specified duties, Murong Qinglian's importance remained crucial due to the ever-growing number of Luo Tian Creed Cultivators.
If she were to suddenly step down as the head of the Merit Hall, it would undoubtedly lead to immense chaos within the Luo Tian Creed.
But at the same time!
If Murong Qinglian were to leave now, the impact would still be within controllable limits.
Due to Qin Liangchen's death, she had been frequently indulging in her grief these past few years.
Therefore, the Luo Tian Creed had granted her a long leave of absence.
The Merit Hall had been managed by her deputy, Sima Wenjie, in the interim.
