Chapter Twenty-Three: The New Sect Master (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
The top of Xuanqing Mountain, above the square of the Xuanqing Sect.
After the nine bells rang, all the disciples and elders gathered on the sect square, and there was a sea of people.
Above the square, the ranks of the disciples and elders were distinct.
At the forefront was a group of sect elders, led by several senior elders, with Zhou Yuan Hao Ran among them.
Then there are the core disciples of the sect, all of whom are among the best geniuses in this world, each with a lofty and extraordinary bearing.
Next, there are the inner disciples, the outer disciples, and the miscellaneous disciples!
"Every time the bell rings nine times, there are major events that affect the sect, I don't know what is the reason for this time?"
"I don't know what happened? I was still in retreat, and I was suddenly disturbed by the sound of nine bells! ”
"I do know something inside, it seems to be related to the next head of the house!" ......
In the square, many elders communicated with each other, guessing what had happened this time? There is actually a sect conference to be held!
At this time, Xu Ning was following Zhou Yuan, and this was also Xu Ning's first official appearance.
Everyone knows that Zhou Yuan raised a baby as his own son, and many people also saw Xu Ning for the first time.
Because of Zhou Yuan, these elders present also had a very friendly attitude towards Xu Ning.
When the sun was three poles, an old man with white hair and Lin Xuan came to the high platform in front of the square.
Lin Xuan's state seemed to be not good, his face was pale, and his breath was unstable.
"Meet Elder Taishang, meet the master!" "Meet Elder Taishang, meet the master!" ......
On the square, the disciples and elders of Wu Yang waved at the two of them at the same time, and the scene was extremely spectacular.
"You don't have to be polite!" The old, deep voice of the Supreme Elder echoed throughout the square.
"There are two main things to announce for this sect conference, one is that the sect master was attacked by gangsters and was seriously injured, and he needs to retreat for a long time."
"Today, a generation sect master will be elected to handle everything in the sect during Lin Xuan's retreat!"
"The second thing, also today, will be to select the next heir to the head of the sect among the core disciples!"
The two announcements had just been made public, and there was a sudden quarrel at the bottom, both the elders and the disciples were all talking, and all the elders and disciples were eager to try.
"Quiet!" Elder Taishang shouted, and the discussion below became smaller.
At this time, Lin Xuan, who was pale-faced, spoke, "The candidate for the acting head of the sect must have high qualifications, high prestige, and high strength, and only by echoing these three can he become the head of the Xuanqing Sect!" ”
Elder looks, look at me, I look at you, and after some searching, I found that there were only a few people who agreed to the conditions.
"Old decay recommends one person, Qin Cang, the elder of the inner gate, needless to say, his qualifications need not be said, he has been fighting in the east and west all these years, subduing many forces for the sect, and his strength is also at the level of a martial saint!"
"With him in the position of head of this generation, I think it is very suitable!" Elder Taishang suddenly spoke.
On the square, a middle-aged man full of evil spirit arched his hand to Elder Taishang and said, "Thank you Elder Taishang for your love, I will definitely live up to the Elder's expectations." ”
Seeing the appearance of the two singing and harmonizing, everyone immediately knew that they had colluded a long time ago.
Lin Xuan pondered for a moment, and then announced: "Since this is the case, then I will announce ......"
"Wait a minute!" A voice suddenly interrupted Lin Xuan's words, and the person who spoke was none other than Zhou Yuan.
Suddenly, all eyes converged on Zhou Yuan, and Zhou Yuan stepped forward without humility or arrogance, and said: "I also want to fight for the position of the head of this generation!" ”
"If you want to talk about qualifications, I don't have to be low in Qin Cang, when it comes to prestige, everyone knows that I have modified the exercises and helped everyone speed up their cultivation, compared to strength, I don't have to be weak in Qin Cang!"
As he spoke, a powerful momentum rose from Zhou Yuan's body.
Sensing this momentum, the people around couldn't help but be shocked.
They were surprised to find that after breaking through the Martial Saint, Zhou Yuan, who was inconspicuous, had actually risen to the peak of the Martial Saint in just eight years.
Not only Qin Cang frowned, but even Elder Taishang's brows were frowning.
The Martial God Realm only exists in ancient legends, and no one has been able to reach it so far, and the peak of the Martial Saint is already the strongest in the world.
Seeing this, the corners of Lin Xuan's mouth couldn't help but show a smile.
He looked at Elder Taishang, who had an ugly face, and asked, "Elder Taishang, what do you think about this matter?" If you don't let the two of you have a fight, who wins and who will be the acting head? ”
Qin Cang is only in the Martial Saint Triple Realm, and when he fights with Zhou Yuan, who is at the peak of the Martial Saint, he has no chance of winning at all!
Even if Elder Taishang personally went down, he would not be Zhou Yuan's opponent.
"No need, since that's the case, Elder Zhou Yuan will be the head of this generation!" Elder Taishang said coldly.
Lin Xuan's forehead was bowed, and then he announced again: "I announce that during my healing period, Elder Zhou Yuan will be the position of the sect master of this generation, and during this period, all the duties of the sect master can be performed!" ”
After the announcement was completed, the elders below stepped forward to congratulate Zhou Yuan.
Xu Ning in the crowd smiled slightly, and said secretly in his heart, "This is not the acting sect master, but the real sect master, and the next time Lin Xuan comes out, it will be thirty years later!" ”
This time, Xu Ning walked out of the Book Pavilion, and the ultimate goal was to let Zhou Yuan fight for the position of this generation of sect masters.
With Zhou Yuan's character, if it weren't for Xu Ning's persuasion, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to stand up.
After the selection of the suzerain is confirmed, the next is to determine the next suzerain.
And the method of deciding this candidate is also very straightforward, competition, whoever is stronger will become the next sect master.
Due to the large number of core disciples, Lin Xuan decided to adopt a big scuffle.
Core disciples can form offensive and defensive alliances with each other, confront each other, and test the disciples' organizational leadership and strategic and tactical abilities.
"Qing'er, do you want to go up and try it?" Zhou Yuan said.
Xu Ning rolled his eyes and said, "Master, I'm an ordinary person now, if you let me go up, let me go up and be beaten!" ”
"Hey!" Zhou Yuan sighed lightly, "It's a pity, if you kid cultivates well, maybe this heir's position can still fight!" ”
Xu Ning pursed his lips disdainfully, and secretly sighed, "This sect master heir is not so easy to be!" ”
In a huge ring, hundreds of core disciples were in a scuffle, and many elder disciples were watching the battle, and there was no way to cheat if they wanted to!
This big melee lasted for more than three hours, and for the position of the sect master, these core disciples cooperated and schemed, and everyone was fascinated.
In the end, as expected, the core disciple who stood in the ring at the end was Jiang Chen, the core disciple who was favored by everyone!
At this point, the Xuanqing Sect Sect Conference came to an end.
