Synopsis
The chapter unveils that the hypnosis was caused by hallucinogens on the cups, not the jade bottles, which the Patriarch had secretly switched. The minor priest's keen observation led to this discovery. Despite this, the Patriarch orders the investigation to cease. Furthermore, the minor priest's official announcement as such is suspiciously absent, hinting that the Patriarch is weakening his power by bolstering other sects and keeping a watchful eye over him by establishing an equal balance of power among them.
Quick Summary
The investigation into the hypnosis incident reveals drug use, but the Patriarch orchestrated it all to manipulate power balance. The minor priest's ascension is also suspiciously unannounced, hinting at further power plays.
