is worthy of being the sect master, when everyone is ecstatic, he can still make a calm decision immediately.

Then, he solemnly added, "Even if there are other Jindan elders in the sect who are not here today, you are not allowed to disclose this matter to them. I will explain to them a few of the important elders. Regarding Ji Xiaohe's spiritual root qualifications, it is always called the heavenly spiritual root of the Eight Rings inside and outside the sect, and it should not be overly publicized. The Heavenly Spiritual Root is enough to make some people think differently, and it can also attract the attention of other disciples and elders of the sect. ”

All the elders said in unison with serious expressions, and they all said that the sect master had made a wise decision.

Zhuge Divine Crossbow was also very excited, but after all, he had already guessed, and soon forcibly calmed down, and after glancing at Ji Xiaohe with a smile, he turned his head and said to the sect master:

"Before, we were going to confer the gift of entering the sect to Xiaohe as a disciple of our own lineage, but now that everyone knows what kind of genius he is, do you think it is appropriate to treat him according to the gift of ordinary geniuses?"

As soon as this statement came out, it was approved by all the elders.

"yes, it's not quite right. ”

"Yes, where can those personal disciples in the sect compare to Xiaohe. ”

"Well, even if the other disciples in the sect are gone, as long as Xiaohe is still there, the sect will definitely be able to prosper. It is indeed inappropriate to arrange for him to be a personal disciple. ”

"But the personal disciple is already the highest level of disciple status, so you can't say that you can't give him the identity of an elder, right? ”

"Otherwise, the elder will be the elder, right? It doesn't hurt to set a precedent, although it feels a little weird, but it's better than being a disciple yourself. ”

"Yes, he'll be promoted to elder sooner or later anyway. That's not right, the identity of the elder doesn't seem to be enough to show his importance to the sect?"

"This also makes sense, an elder like us, when he dies, he dies, and although he has an impact on the sect, it is not too great. Where can it be compared to Xiaohe?"

The sect master had a smile on his face, sometimes looking at the sect elders and talking, and sometimes looking at Ji Xiaohe who was standing next to Zhuge Shen's crossbow.

After everyone was talking about it, he laughed and said, "It's easy. You may not know that the sect also has a special identity suitable for a wizard like Xiaohe, that is, a secret disciple. ”

"Secret disciple?" the sect elder wondered.

They had never heard of a disciple of such an identity in the sect.

Ji Xiaohe was also very puzzled, and he didn't know how the identity he arranged for himself would be different from that of his own disciples. But at this time, he had no chance to speak, so he could only wait for the sect master to explain.

"The identity of the secret disciple is specially set up for those peerless wizards, and the sect has never found such a disciple in the past thousands of years, so the elders don't know. Now let me explain the rights of such disciples, so that you can also have a basis for your actions in the future. ”

The Sect Master first introduced its origin, and then slowly said: "The status of the secret disciple is equal to the Sect Master! Even better than the Sect Master in many aspects. ”

This status is too high, isn't it? Equal to the sect master, or even more so the sect master?

Ji Xiaohe never expected that as soon as he entered the sect, he would be able to obtain such a high position of power. Originally, he just saw that Zhuge Shen's crossbow had a good character, and he couldn't bear the other party's repeated persuasions, so he reluctantly agreed to join his sect. But given such an identity, he can no longer be at will. Originally, I was going to join in, but I am afraid that the idea of slipping away if I am not satisfied will not be implemented.

The elders also looked at each other, secretly considering whether there would be anything wrong with this identity.

The sect master's voice paused slightly, and after seeing that the sect elders understood the importance of this identity, he continued: "The secret disciples have the right to supervise and control all the disciples below the elder, and the rewards and punishments of life and death are determined by their will, and the elders must not interfere, and if there is any objection, they can only raise it with the sect master or the Supreme Elder." This is one of them, the power of discipline and punishment. ”

"Second, it is to enjoy the right of cultivation resources. Secret disciples can enjoy the same right to use various resources of the sect to cultivate as the sect master, including spirit stones, spirit pills, formations, secret realms, martial arts, Taoist scriptures, and so on. ”

"Third, the privilege of putting one's own safety first. When it comes to matters involving their own safety, secret disciples can ask the sect elders, including the sect master, to help resolve them. Sect elders are not allowed to resist without a reasonable reason. When the sect is persecuted by the enemy and is in danger of being destroyed, all the personnel of the sect should take the protection of the secret disciples as the first priority. ”

This position of power is really great, and there is indeed something more than the suzerain.

Many of the elders present were already so shocked that they opened their mouths, stunned and confused.

The sect master's introduction has not stopped: "Fourth, the identity of a secret disciple cannot be easily sealed, let alone easily deprived. When sealing, it must be proposed by the sect master and agreed by more than half of the elders of the sect. When depriving, it must be jointly proposed by the Supreme Elder and the sect master, and more than eighty percent of the elders of the sect agree. ”

"This is really solemn and strict enough. Deprivation is much more difficult than sealing, and if it is not for the anger of the heavens and the resentment of the people, I am afraid that there will be no deprivation. Ji Xiaohe thought silently.

"Fifth, after the secret disciple is sealed, two additional guardian elders must be sealed to protect the secret disciple at any time. Elder Protector Dao can only take action when a secret disciple has a catastrophe of life and death, and usually try to hide his body as much as possible, and should not interfere more. At the same time, the status and rights of the guardian elders are also slightly higher, and ordinary elders can order other elders to help if necessary, and those who are ordained cannot resist without reasonable reasons. ”

At this point, the sect master had clearly explained the rights and status of the secret disciples.

After leaving a little time for the sect elders to digest the impact, he then said aloud: "All the elders here, you all know the importance of the secret disciple? First of all, I agree, and I think most elders agree. So, please ask the dissenting elders to come forward and explain their reasons!"

The sect master's voting method is obviously to make some people with ulterior motives dare not stand up, so as not to do bad things.

In fact, many elders did agree, and they were all happy to see that there was such a peerless wizard to lead the sect to prosperity. Although this secret disciple is suspected of having too much power, they all believe in the eyes and character of Zhuge Shen's crossbow, and they should not bring a person with too bad character into the sect.

For a while, the elders of the sect were all smiling, looking at each other, and often swept their eyes towards Ji Xiaohe, showing a very satisfied expression from time to time.

Suddenly, an elder stood up and said, "Sect Master, it's not that I disagree with the identity of Ji Xiaohe's secret disciple. But do you think the power status of the secret disciples is too high?"

When the sect master saw an elder get up, he was a little surprised in his heart, but his face did not change, but his eyes became much more severe.

It wasn't until he heard what he said that he eased his divine light a little and responded:

"The secret disciple is specially set up for the peerless genius, and the right is to protect him, so that he can grow smoothly, so that the sect can have a chance to prosper. This is also the rule of the sect specially formulated by the patriarch, and it cannot be changed! Elder Yizhi, you are right to think about the sect, please sit down. But you don't need to worry too much about this matter, can't you still trust the vision and character of the righteous elder?"

Immediately after, the sect master glanced around, and then said, "Since all the elders have agreed, then more than half of the elders of the sect have agreed to the matter of sealing. The matter was settled. ”

It's so decided? Isn't that too easy?

There are a few elders who are worried that after multiple secret disciples, their interests will be touched, and they have the heart to oppose it, but it is not good to face the stern eyes of the sect master alone. has been expecting others to come forward, but they all think so, and they were quickly determined by the sect master.

Zhuge Shenxuan had already explained to the sect master that Ji Xiaohe was very disgusted with the apprenticeship, and now that he had decided on the identity of his secret disciple, the sect master didn't want to have another branch, so he said arbitrarily:

"Ji Xiaohe has now entered the sect as a secret disciple, and considering his genius and peerless qualifications, he will no longer look for a teacher for him alone. In the future, if Ji Xiaohe has any difficulties and confusion in cultivation, he can ask everyone in the sect, including me, for advice and guidance. No one should be perfunctory, but must teach with all his heart. ”

After explaining to the elders of the sect, he turned to Ji Xiaohe again, and said with a smile: "Xiaohe, considering your secret identity, I have decided to give you the rank of righteous character. Most of the elders sitting here belong to this generation, including me and Elder Zhuge are. There are also some who are from the Bingzi generation, and they are the uncles. There are also some real characters, who are your teachers and nephews. You will gradually get acquainted with these elders in the future. ”
