"I'm just a true disciple, how can He De become an elder of the ruling hall, this is absolutely not good!" Liu Chen righteously refused.

Ao Yiming scolded angrily at this time: "You keep saying that everything is for the Hanging Light Sect, but the middle hall of the Hanging Light Sect is not in charge, and it is already chaotic to the verge of collapse, you have the strength and prestige, and you can completely help the middle hall to stabilize, but you are not willing to bear this responsibility, this is what you said about the Hanging Light Sect?" ”

"This ......" Liu Chen looked embarrassed.

"According to the original agreement, you should have taken over as the sect master. But you said that the strength is not enough, and you can't let the Hanging Lantern Sect be ashamed. We recognize this, and we are willing to wait for the Hanging Lantern Sect to produce another grandmaster. But now it's just for you to stabilize the nave, isn't that okay? I think you're just afraid of taking responsibility, so you keep pushing and pushing. ”

Liu Chen's face turned red, staring at Ao Yiming, unable to say a word.

Ao Yiming looked at Liu Chen's appearance, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up in his heart, this acting talent was no worse than him.

"Xi Yao, you are the true heir of the middle hall and the daughter of the sect master, do you say that he is qualified to take charge of the middle hall."

Zhao Xiyao looked at Ao Yiming and then at Liu Chen. Compared with others, she naturally hopes that Liu Chen will be in charge of the middle hall.

Therefore, she bowed and saluted: "Uncle Boiling is right, please don't shirk Senior Brother Liu." ”

Whether it was Zhao Xiyao or Ao Yiming, they were extremely prestigious in the middle hall, and they spoke at the same time, attracting many disciples to follow, prostrate on the ground and shout: "Please also ask Senior Brother Liu Chen to take charge of the middle hall!" ”

"This ......" Liu Chen looked at the many disciples who were prostrate on the ground, and his face showed embarrassment.

The Great Elder and the others were so angry that their bodies were trembling. Yun Mei was also stunned in place, never expecting such a picture to appear.

Ao Yiming said again at this moment: "If you don't take over, then I won't be able to wait." ”

Liu Chen glanced at Ao Yiming, thinking that he was worthy of being the sect master's henchman. Well, you'll be my confidant from now on. is much more reliable than Zhao Lei's guy who still needs to be dialed.

Zhao Lei stood on the side at this time, looking at Ao Yiming with anger on his face. Hmph, Senior Brother Liu Chen has no interest in power, you actually forced him like this, and sure enough, only you are Senior Brother Liu Chen's confidant, for the sake of Senior Brother Liu Chen, don't let him do anything embarrassing.

"Please also ask Senior Brother Liu Chen to take charge of the middle hall!" Many disciples, under Ao Yiming's eyes, prostrate on the ground again and pleaded.

Liu Chen's face was full of embarrassment, and finally sighed and said, "That's it!" I will temporarily act as the elder of the middle temple first, and when Xi Yao grows a little more, she will take over. ”

Zhao Xiyao was stunned, how could he have thought that Liu Chen was still thinking about passing on the throne to her at this time, and he couldn't help but have strange emotions in his heart.

Several elders were as aggrieved as they ate, but they couldn't speak. Liu Chen's reputation is too high now, and they can't even say anything to suppress him.

Yun Mei's expression was complicated, she didn't know Yun Du yet. The husband made a big fuss about the Great Yan Sect. She just felt that the true inheritance of the Vermilion Bird Hall had suddenly become an elder of the Middle Temple, and she was a little difficult to accept for a while. In her cognition, Liu Chen is still a disciple who needs to be taken care of.

But no matter what everyone's mood is, in the singing and harmony between Liu Chen and Ao Yiming, the matter is settled.

No matter how unwilling they are, they can only be forced to accept it. The elders were still comforting themselves in their hearts, they were just acting hall elders, it was better than him becoming the sect master. If he insists on becoming the sect master, in the name of his righteousness, it will be a headache.

Now an acting hall elder sent him, and he has also taken the name of righteousness. After that, he could no longer use this reason to talk about things.

They are all six-rank peak cultivators, and they have the best chance of becoming the sect master, as long as they become the first to become the sect master, then no one can stop them from becoming the sect master.

Well! Becoming a Grandmaster is the most important thing! I'm going to practice to the death!

Several elders suddenly became highly motivated.

…………

The meeting ended after Liu Chen became the elder of the middle temple.

Liu Chen and Ao Yiming were also in a side hall in the middle hall, at this time Ao Yiming stood aside respectfully, brought a bunch of materials, handed them to Liu Chen, and said: "Hall master, this is the account books, affairs, and the list of disciples in the middle hall. ”

Liu Chen took it, knowing that mastering these things was equivalent to mastering the right of the middle temple.

He looked at Ao Yiming and said, "These are not in a hurry, you will continue to be responsible for these matters in the future, Deacon Ao!" ”

Ao Yiming is overjoyed!

After the death of the suzerain, he had no backstage and was constantly worried about being marginalized. Liu Chen's attitude told him that he had made the right bet today.

Similarly, Liu Chen's attitude also let Ao Yiming know that he didn't want to be so upright and selfless.

Therefore, Ao Yiming asked tentatively: "Several elders have some black history, otherwise I will send someone to spread it and imperceptibly attack their prestige." In this way, you can compare the majesty of the temple master. ”

"Deacon Ao, I have always been an upright person, and I never disdain to do dirty things. I didn't hear anything you just said. ”

The previous sentence shocked Deacon Ao, but the sentence behind Liu Chen suddenly made him understand, and he immediately echoed and said: "What the hall master said is right, it is the heart of the villain of his subordinates." However, although you are upright and kind, some people are always dissatisfied with a few elders, and these things will come out sooner or later. ”

Liu Chen looked at Ao Yiming and thought to himself that it must be reused, it must be reused. Such a talent is much stronger than Zhao Lei.

So Liu Chen said: "Deacon Ao, you have worked hard all these years, although the Hanging Lantern Sect does not have a deputy hall master, but you are the deputy hall master in my heart, and you will have to pay more attention to the affairs of this middle hall in the future." ”

Ao Yiming was overjoyed, and from now on, he was under one person in the middle hall.

Seeing that Liu Chen began to read the information in the middle hall, Ao Yiming waited respectfully beside him, and from time to time he solved Liu Chen's doubts.

Ao Yiming has been deeply involved in the middle hall for many years, and with his all-knowing assistant Liu Chen, Liu Chen soon had a general understanding of all the affairs of the middle hall.

After Ao Yiming helped Liu Chen get familiar with the middle hall, he said: "With the strength and prestige of the hall master, it is not difficult to master the middle hall. But what is special about the nave is that there is also the elders' house of the Hanging Lantern Sect in the nave. Every enshrined elder in the House of Elders is a powerhouse of the Hanging Lantern Sect, and although they are not in power, they have a high status. Moreover, the House of Elders is also the foundation of the Hanging Lantern Sect.

They have always only obeyed the sect master, the hall master is not the sect master after all, if they want to completely control the middle hall, the elders' house will have some troubles.

However, Zhao Xiyao, as the daughter of the sect master, was favored by these people in the House of Elders. If the hall master can convince Zhao Xiyao to be on your side, the House of Elders can also be on your side.

With the support of the House of Elders, even if the hall master is not the sect master in the Hanging Lantern Sect, no one can shake your status. ”

Liu Chen was thoughtful.

Ao Yiming thought for a while and said: "The hall master avenges the sect master, Zhao Xiyao should have promised him." If the hall master is Zhao Xiyao's husband, the Elders' House should also recognize you. But recently, I heard some discussions: You are the righteous son recognized by the sect master many years ago, and you are brother and sister with her. ”

Liu Chen knew that this must have been passed on by Zhao Xiyao. Liu Chen didn't care, and said to Ao Yiming: "You go and ask Xiyao to accompany me to the elders' house." ”
