Chapter 558: Under One Man
The aftermath of Bai Mei's words echoed in the empty Sect Master's Hall, and then slowly flowed into Jiang Ming and Li Xiaoyao's ears.
"In vain...... Apprentice, let the master down. Seeing a wisp of disappointment in the depths of Bai Mei's eyes, Li Xiaoyao knew that he was hesitant in this matter, which made Bai Mei completely understand that he was not a suitable successor.
"That's it, you have a free and uninhibited temperament, and you have a lot of feelings. I tried you this time, but I didn't have much hope for the teacher. ”
Li Xiaoyao has followed Bai Mei since he was a child, and his relationship with Bai Mei is the deepest, in fact, Bai Mei knew from the beginning that Li Xiaoyao would not be a perfect successor.
Because Li Xiaoyao, who is more important than affection, lacks the least calmness and indifference of a person in power.
But in the end, Bai Mei still gave Li Xiaoyao a chance, but it backfired after all......
"There is less than half a year to go, and I have to make an appointment with Cao Tianyi as a teacher. Tomorrow, I will tell Xia Zhong, Shanhai, and the Ten Elders about the meaning of Li Ming'er as the Young Sect Master. However, it will not be announced to the sect for the time being.
Once this matter is settled, the teacher will go into retreat in preparation for the next battle. Ming'er, after you remove your cultivation every day, you will follow Xia Zhong and Shanhai to familiarize yourself with the management of the affairs of the sect.
Xiaoyao, as a senior brother, this sect has a special task for you. After instructing Jiang Ming, Bai Mei immediately turned his head to look at Li Xiaoyao again.
Slightly surprised, Li Xiaoyao asked curiously: "What task?"
"Since you can't take over the position of my sect master, then I will be the preacher of Shushan, let you come. He glanced at Li Xiaoyao deeply, and said slowly with white eyebrows.
"Preacher...... Apprentice, I'm afraid it's hard to take on this big responsibility......"
Hearing that Bai Mei was actually going to make him a preacher, Li Xiaoyao's expression froze, and he felt a lot of pressure.
Generally, the top sects will select two of the best disciples in the sect to serve in two special positions: preacher and protector.
The disciples who held these two positions all received this burden in secret, and no one in the entire sect knew about their existence except for the sect master.
The responsibilities of both are also very important, and both the preacher and the protector can only be activated when the sect is in danger of destruction.
The protector is the existence of the entire sect in addition to the sect master, or even more powerful than the sect master himself, and is the last hole card of the entire sect.
The preacher is the duty set up to preserve the torch of the sect, and the strength is also very strong, although it is slightly inferior to the protector, but the preacher keeps all the exercise books of the entire sect, so that the sect can make a comeback at the right time.
Since Shushan was founded by Bai Mei, and Bai Mei itself is the most powerful monk in the Diyang Realm, the position of the protector and preacher of Shushan has always been vacant.
Now that Bai Mei suddenly wants to establish himself as a preacher, Li Xiaoyao's first reaction is that it is difficult to take on a heavy responsibility, after all, even a preacher needs extremely strong strength, but as far as Li Xiaoyao is concerned, it is still very, very poor.
"No one is born for a position, and when you find it difficult, that's when you move forward. This matter has already been decided by the teacher, so you don't need to say more. ”
Blocking Li Xiaoyao's words, Bai Mei waved his hand to let Jiang Ming and Li Xiaoyao step back.
......
Night falls
Bai Mei stood alone in front of the square on the golden top of Shu Mountain, and the silver-gray moonlight dragged his shadow for a long time, like a pitch-black cloak.
The space beside him suddenly rippled, and Cao Beifeng, who was carrying two bottles of fine wine, stepped out of it.
Unceremoniously walked to Bai Mei's side and sat down, Cao Beifeng bit the seal on the wine bottle with his mouth and handed it to Bai Mei: "Don't pestle, this is the good wine I stole from the palace." ”
Glancing down at Cao Beifeng, he smiled, took the wine bottle, and leaned over to sit next to Cao Beifeng.
took a sip of wine, and looked at the bright moon in the sky with white eyebrows: "Why did you suddenly have the interest to come to me for a drink today." ”
"Da Wei and Da Han are getting more and more fierce now, so you are still cleaner in Shushan Youzhou. I'm really tired of being in the palace, so I'm going to run out. Smashing his mouth, Cao Beifeng replied casually.
After a word, Bai Mei and Cao Beifeng fell into silence, and the two drank to each other, but neither of them spoke, and they didn't know whether they didn't know what to say, or they knew what to say, but they didn't know how to speak.
"Are you sure that you will fight my imperial brother this time?"
After being silent for a long time, Cao Beifeng still asked the biggest problem in his heart.
"Win a Yuanying Supreme, I'm afraid that even the one in the East China Sea doesn't have this confidence. Smiled at Cao Beifeng, and said with white eyebrows.
"Then you still ......" Cao Beifeng, who doesn't like to be bound by nature, has always been unable to see through Bai Mei and his imperial brother Cao Tianyi, who holds the code of conduct of powerful people like this.
"North Wind, there are some things you don't understand because you are standing in a different position. I made an appointment to fight your royal brother, not because we have a personal vendetta, nor because I am unhappy with your imperial brother.
The reason for this is simply that neither of us is willing to be mediocre, and neither of us is willing to sit under the other. Cocking his neck and taking a sip of the spirit, his white eyebrows pointed to the bright brightness in the sky.
"When you look up, the moon shines brightly, and the stars are the foil. The essence of the moon is the same as that of the stars, except that it shines brighter.
And my brother and I both wanted to be the shining star, but in the most word, we didn't go hand in hand. Therefore, it is inevitable that I will fight with your royal brother. ”
Looking at the calm white eyebrows beside him with complicated eyes, Cao Beifeng said in a deep tone: "But if you lose this battle, have you thought about the consequences?"
"Defeat?" smiled and shook his head, Bai Mei bent his fingers and slowly drew strokes in the void: "Thinking of defeat without a fight is half a setback!
I have encountered life and death crises, and I have been in a desperate situation. But so far...... Not a single defeat!"
"Bai Mei, you haven't seen the background of my imperial brother, not to mention that he himself is the supreme of the Yuanying Realm, and he is the Zhou Tian artifact of my Cao family, what can you resist.
And...... And ......" Halfway through speaking, Cao Beifeng suddenly paused, his face hesitated, and he didn't seem to know whether to continue talking.
"And your imperial brother still has the town boundary pillar of the Diyang Realm, at a critical moment, he can even mobilize the power of the entire Diyang Realm to suppress me, right. He looked at Cao Beifeng, who was stunned, with a chuckle, and said with a smile: "Beifeng, I haven't considered what you said."
Since I dare to make an appointment to fight your imperial brother, I naturally already know his strength. But do you know my strength, have you thought about it?"
Looking at Bai Mei with a mysterious smile on his face, Cao Beifeng's heart suddenly chuckled, and at this moment, Cao Beifeng suddenly remembered that he and Bai Mei had known each other for so long, and even he didn't seem to know what his strength was......
