Heavenly Court, Five Old Lords Mansion.
As one of the Five Old Lords of the Heavenly Court, even though the Qingling Primordial Lord might not hold much authority, it is only in comparison to those deities of the same level.
Even as a noble Divine Position, the authority he holds is still beyond the reach of some deities and cultivators, an existence to be looked up to.
Moreover, in the Cultivation World, strength is the true essence, might equals right. Having sufficient power allows you to gain respect and enjoy other things unattainable by others, even without some corresponding duties.
Even if this Qingling Primordial Lord does not possess much authority within the Heavenly Court, as a True Immortal of the Sixth Heaven, he remains one of the few formidable forces under the sky.
