Chapter 257: Using the ring

The ring on Eren's finger was one that was used by the Sect Masters. The next sect master was also assigned through the transfer of the ring.

This was also the reason that Feng Yu became the Sect Master in the past, even though she wasn't strong enough at that time.

This ring was the one and only reason the Ancestral Elders couldn't come up with a moral justification to take the Sect Master position.

Many of them tried to manipulate Feng Yu into giving them the ring, scaring them that she was too young and she might bring the sect to ruins. They said that the Sect doesn't deserve a weak sect master like her.

Despite all that, Feng Yu didn't hand them the position. In the end, the Ancestral Elders could only try other means. They attempted to kill her, not realizing that it was going to bring forth a catastrophe for the sect.
