Lilith, upon learning everything, longed for the day she could break through as a Level 9 Ghost Emperor and free the Succubus Clan from enslavement.
Ultimately, her hopes were shattered because a high-level official was about to break through as a Level 9 Ghost Emperor, so he needed Lilith to continue bolstering his foundations.
Lilith was also informed that she must quickly choose her successor as Sect Leader, and arrange the transfer within a week.
To prevent Lilith from escaping, a powerful Rune Restriction was placed on her.
In despair, Lilith remembered that she had once heard of a Rule Item within a branch of the Hundred Treasure Tower, which could remove any Rune Restriction other than those of the Rule type.
But with the Tower Master in place and without, the difficulty was entirely different.
On the last day, Lilith found an opportunity during a banquet hosted by the Da Hai Commercial Guild, which was attended by Sect Leaders from major groups.
