Host: Ok. Nie Huaisang the 'headshaker' accomplished so much behind the scenes, was it all just to get revenge for his brother? Is he a villain or not?

MXTX: Strictly speaking, you have to admit that he didn't commit anything unforgivable towards the protagonists. So I think in this regard that he isn't a villain. As for whether he did all that just to avenge his brother, perhaps everything he did served a single purpose at first but that wasn't the case afterwards.

Host: So in the end, he pretended that he wasn't uncovered. Was that your intent?

MXTX: Right, that's the gist of it.

Host: Then why did he pretend not to be uncovered?

MXTX: Mmh… If you're asking why WWX didn't uncover his disguise, well, that's because there wasn't enough proof, there was nothing that could be used against him. I didn't expose him outright because I thought it was unnecessary. Some things, some disguises need not be laid out in the open. If he was exposed, there would be no way to punish him, his motive is quite legitimate you see.

Host: But… Thinking of…

Hostess: I think that if you consider his schemes, he will lead the four Great Sects in the future. How can that silly Jiang Cheng…

MXTX: Yes, I can guarantee that he will lead the four Great Sects in the future. Bye-bye Jiang Cheng, you can forget about it [becoming a leader].

Hostess: And Lan-da [Big bro Lan, LXC]?

MXTX: … Hurry up and find a wife, Jiang Cheng.

Hostess: Lan-da might be able to dispute with him [NHS for the leader position] but isn't he too much of a proper gentleman?

MXTX: Of course, Lan-da is the very proper gentleman kind. It's not in his nature to contend for something. It's enough if his clan remains well. He has no desire to compete with someone else. Lan-da must also find a wife.

Hostess: In the future, if the Jin family must… Right, why do all these Sect Leaders haven't found a wife? It's been decades and they still haven't found one.

MXTX: Some Sect Leaders have found a wife. Yao-mei [Little sister Yao, JGY] for instance.

Hostess: Does that count as a wife for Yao-mei? Pass, pass.

MXTX: You can think of it this way, if you consider from the standpoint of the novel, it's best for a Sect Leader to cultivate and improve himself for some time before considering the matter of finding a wife. One must first raise their cultivation level before thinking of founding a family. From an author's point of view, I would rather not include the Sect Leaders' spouses as characters. When there are too many characters, it's hard to take them all into consideration.
