Chixue Sea Region.
After several months of repeated back-and-forth and negotiations, the Longevity Hall's annexation of the Cangyu Islands finally concluded with the compromise and surrender of the last two Golden Core Masters.
In exchange, these two Golden Core Masters retained their status as Core Elders within the Longevity Hall and would enjoy the corresponding authority and resources.
Of course, the remaining subordinates of their True Lineages would be broken up and assigned to posts in remote territories. Only after serving the Sect for a certain number of years could they be transferred back to more prosperous regions.
From then on, the Cangyu Islands sect was officially disbanded in the Chixue Sea Region. All of its remaining Disciples, territories, and assets were absorbed into the Longevity Hall.
As the news spread, all the surrounding powers remained silent; none raised any objections to the Longevity Hall's actions.
