Chapter 182: Reporting and Handover
At night, the moon and stars are scarce. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The disciples had already dispersed, and they were talking about what happened during the day in their residences.
Ye Fan was also among them, but his expression was flustered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
A young disciple who looked to be in his early twenties lowered his voice and said, "You say, Acting Sect Master, would he just honestly let a complete stranger take charge of the sect?
A disciple immediately replied disdainfully:
"But what can he do? Not to mention that the two martial arts level elders were killed in front of him, the key is that this new sect master still has the inheritance holy book of the Xingchen Lie Su Sect, and he is the only one in the sect who is practicing, and our sect originally still has the Bai Sect Master and they are pressing, you see that since they disappeared for three months, people's hearts have been unstable, plus the two elders have made waves, how many people have left the mountain gate and found another way out?
If you want me to say that our sect is now withering and broken, it is more than enough for such a big master to be our sect master. I think that the current sect master's strength is so strong, it is much better than Elder Zhong's previous half-dead hanging. ”
"This is indeed true, but I am more curious about how old this sect master is? I'm afraid that he is younger than me just by looking at his appearance, could it be that he is actually an old man, and what strange exercises have he practiced to cause this appearance?"
"Don't care about the age of this sect master, I think now is an opportunity, before Shang Chenxi and Wei Deming were nepotistic, and we who suppressed our sect descendants couldn't raise their heads, and now this sect master is a newcomer, I don't know the situation, when we want to use people, as long as we perform better, this is an opportunity for us." ”
"Whether there is a chance or not depends on the character and skill of this new sect master. ”
A disciple said with some excitement:
"I'm thinking, is it true or false that the sect master said that the disciples who have passed the assessment and evaluation can learn the inheritance holy scriptures? But we still don't know what is in this inheritance holy scriptures, is it because the sect master is so strong after cultivating? The new sect master won't break his promise, right?"
The changes that happened during the day still make these disciples uneasy, and they are talking about it.
Ye Fan looked at the time and did not participate, but walked out silently.
......
In the sect master's attic, Yue Pingsheng quietly listened to Zhong Cheng's report to him on the current situation of the Xingchen Liesu Sect.
On the table in front of him was a thick stack of various sect materials, title deeds, certificates, and other things.
After leaving a small number of disciples, there are now three true disciples left in the sect, one hundred and thirty-nine formal disciples, and one hundred and fifty-seven disciples during the assessment period plus miscellaneous servants.
"Sect Master. ”
Zhong Cheng sat down, looked at Yue Pingsheng, and explained with a complicated expression:
"These are the existing industries of this sect, some of them have been sold out because of poor management, and they can't make ends meet, and now the majority of the income in the sect is the green stone veins five miles away, and there are some other scattered small industries, but the number is not much, and the revenue created for the sect is also very low. ”
"Very good," Yue Pingsheng nodded, flipping through the materials while staring directly at Zhong Cheng: "Are you sure that there is nothing missing?"
At first glance of eye contact with Yue Pingsheng, Zhong Cheng only felt that this sect master's gaze was very strange, as if it had pierced straight into his heart and understood what he was thinking, and there was nothing to hide from any thoughts.
He leaned forward slightly, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he said nervously:
"Back to the sect master, there are indeed only a few, but I don't know if the other two elders did anything in private, or started a new business. ”
Yue Pingsheng nodded, judging from the light in his eyes, Zhong Cheng was indeed not lying.
Even Yue Pingsheng originally thought that Zhong Cheng would have anger, hatred, and other emotions after he directly stepped down from the position of sect master, and looked at Zhong Cheng's current appearance, but he was a little relieved.
Yue Pingsheng looked at him meaningfully, and asked with a smile:
"Elder Zhong, for an uninvited guest like me who snatched your position as the sect master, you immediately gave it up, don't you have any other thoughts?
You have the inheritance of the holy book on you, and the two martial artists joined hands and were killed by you, is it useful for me to worry and oppose it?
Zhong Cheng smiled embarrassedly, slandered in his heart, thought about it, and said:
"Sect Master, I, Zhong Cheng, don't play the trick of face to face and back in this situation. I have figured out that with your force, no matter which side you go to, you will be a big man, a guest, and admired. But to be the sect leader of a dilapidated third-rate sect with two or three hundred people like the Xingchen Liesu Sect, it just sounds beautiful.
What my disciple Ye Fan said also makes sense, since you have brought back the Inheritance Sacred Book and have also practiced it, then the people who are counted as the Star Column Sect are also reasonable. Coupled with the fact that you have such a strong martial arts cultivation, since you want to be the sect master, I will naturally abdicate and make way for Xian. ”
He said with a lonely expression:
"I'm not afraid of your jokes, sect master, I was originally just an elder in the sect, and it was because I was the junior disciple of the original sect master that he appointed me to act as the sect master before leaving. Scheming is not what I am good at, and this Rausch Sect is not mainly because of the assignment of the original sect master, so I don't want to do it. Otherwise, Wei Deming and Shang Chenxi have been arrogant and making waves for a long time, and I would have torn my face a long time ago.
Now in the sect, there are only two or three hundred people, except for the elder's martial arts cultivation, almost none of the rest of the disciples are outstanding, but the two sect elders are not right, and they want to seize power, and they crashed into your hands again. Counting all the official disciples, the number of people up and down is probably not as large as the number of people in some martial arts halls, so what am I reluctant to do?
However, I still hope that the sect master can lead us people to develop and grow, and be able to restore the glory of the past, which is the wish of the sect masters of all generations since the establishment of the new dynasty. ”
Yue Pingsheng was noncommittal. The development and growth of the Xingchen Liesu Sect was naturally within his plan, but it was not for the wish of the sect masters of the past dynasties, but to be able to do something better for Yue Pingsheng.
"Alright, then you can go back first. I'll check this information. ”
Zhong Cheng saluted and walked out.
Not long after he walked out, the sound of slight footsteps sounded in Yue Pingsheng's ears.
After the knock on the door sounded, there was a squeak, but it was Ye Fan who looked respectful and walked in. (To be continued.) )
