Chapter 520 Give way
Chapter 520 Give way
There is no such thing as sunrise and sunset in the secret realm. The only way to tell time is to use treasures such as the "Liuguang Mirror" and the "Twelve Zodiac Incense".
The next morning, when Liuguang Realm simulated the sunshine, the bell of Wendao Peak rang in the secret realm.
The bell on Wenda Peak is connected to the bell on Hulu Peak. When the Dadao bell on Wenda Peak rings, not only the Emperor bell in the Hulu Peak temple begins to vibrate, but the bells on other peaks also ring one after another.
Tian Lin woke up from his meditation and met Mei Xiangu hurrying in from outside.
Then Mei Xiangu said, "As far as I know, the Dao bell of the Dao Sect will not ring unless something serious happens. Could it be that when Zhai Xingzi returned to the sect, something big happened in this secret realm?"
"Now that the Dao Bell has rung, all the true disciples and elders must gather at Dao Peak. Let's go to the top of the peak first and ask Elder Xue what happened in the sect."
At this time, Yu'er had already taken out the Taoist robe for Tian Lin to change into, and soon Tian Lin and Mei Xiangu reached the top of the mountain together.
Elder Xue was not meditating in the temple at this time, but was holding his ghost baby great-granddaughter in his arms.
When he saw Tian Lin and Mei Xiangu appear, he handed his great-granddaughter to the maid beside him, stood up and said, "Zhaixingzi has returned, so the sect rang the Dadao bell to summon him."
I thought something happened to the sect, and Mei Xiangu was ready for battle. Who would have thought that nothing happened to the sect, but everyone was asked to go and welcome Zhaixingzi——
Mei Xiangu was a little angry, she said bluntly:
"Zhaixingzi is back if he wants to, why do we need to go to welcome him? He hasn't even become the leader of the Dao Sect yet, so why is he so arrogant? In short, he can come back if he wants to, and I won't cause trouble for him, but I can't possibly go to welcome him either."
Elder Xue knew that Mei Xiangu had an old grudge against Zhai Xingzi, but although he understood Mei Xiangu's thoughts, he still said:
"The Tang family is eager to find fault with you. Now that the avenue bell is ringing, if you break the rules and refuse to gather, wouldn't that give the Tang family a handle?
This time when you go to Daofeng, just treat it as going to watch a show."
Mei Xiangu was silent for a moment, but ultimately did not reject Elder Xue's kindness.
The Wenda Peak is not close to the Hulu Peak, but with Elder Xue's cultivation level, he doesn't need a flying boat at all. He can take the two of them and the Taoist boy to the Wenda Peak in a short time.
At this time, the bell of Wendao Peak was still ringing. When Tian Lin and others arrived at Wendao Hall, some elders had already arrived there.
In addition, more disciples rushed towards Wendao Peak.
As soon as they entered the Hall of Asking Questions, everyone immediately saw Fairy Qingfeng and Zhaixingzi standing beside her.
Many years had passed since Tian Lin last saw Zhai Xingzi, and Tian Lin discovered that Zhai Xingzi was still wearing the Taoist robe that he had worn on Chenxiantang.
After a few years, Zhaixingzi still looks like a young man, and time has not left any trace on him.
Mei Xiangu did not move, but Tian Lin and the Taoist boy stepped forward to greet Zhaixingzi.
Zhaixingzi looked at the Taoist boy and said, "Junior brother Xu's cultivation has loosened up. It looks like he will soon enter the early stage of the Nascent Soul. How is it? Do you have the confidence to break through? Do you need help, senior brother?"
The Taoist boy did not dare to accept Zhaixingzi's favor, so he shook his head and said with a smile: "I appreciate your kindness, Senior Brother. If I really cannot break through, I will have to bother you then."
Zhaixingzi looked at Tian Lin again and said, "When I saw you in Chenxiantang that day, I knew you were extraordinary. Sure enough, in just a few years, you have become a true disciple.
How is it? Are there any difficulties in your practice? Do you need help from your brothers? "
Tian Lin smiled and said, "Brother, I appreciate your kindness, but I don't have any difficulties that require your help right now, so I won't bother you."
At this time, other true disciples came over and met Zhaixingzi.
Whenever Zhaixingzi met someone, he would greet them and ask if they needed any help.
It’s a pity that these people all know Zhaixingzi’s cultivation method, so when Zhaixingzi is polite to them, they will be doubly polite to Zhaixingzi.
But when Zhaixingzi asked them if they needed help, they immediately shook their heads and did not dare to owe Zhaixingzi any favor.
It took half an hour just to exchange greetings.
Seeing that no one was willing to accept his benefit, Zhaixingzi sighed, and suddenly looked at Tang Chujie in the distance: "Senior Brother Tang, I see that you also have signs of a breakthrough in cultivation. Do you need some guidance from me?" Tang Chujie, like Mei Xiangu, was one of the few people who did not say hello to Zhaixingzi.
After hearing what Zhai Xingzi said, he said unhappily: "I am afraid that after receiving your instructions, I will end up like Qingfeng Fairy and become your servant."
Fairy Qingfeng, who had been silent, could not help but stand up and say, "What's wrong with being my master's servant? We can practice cultivation and seek immortality together."
Fairy Qingfeng is a casual cultivator, but she is now in the Nascent Soul stage and has the support of Zhaixingzi, so she is not afraid of the Tang family of Daodao Sect at all.
"There are different ways to seek immortality. I will not become someone's slave or servant for the sake of immortality like you do."
Tang Chujie looked so arrogant that Qingfeng Fairy flew into a rage. Just as Qingfeng Fairy was about to draw her sword, the clan leader, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up:
"No noise or quarreling is allowed in the palace."
After saying this, the sect leader asked the great elder, "Are all the people here now?"
The great elder said, "Tang Zhi from Qu Yunfeng and his disciple Ju Yunhai have not arrived yet."
The clan leader nodded and said, "Quyun Peak is quite a distance from here, and it may take some time for Tang Zhi to arrive. Instead of waiting for him here, why not discuss matters first?"
After saying this, the sect master looked at all the elders and disciples present and said, "I called you all here today to discuss the matter of replacing the sect's chief elder."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at the Great Elder.
The grand elder of the Wendao Sect has always been the ancestor of the Zhuang family, and the position of grand elder also guarantees the status of the Zhuang family in the Wendao Sect.
But now the sect wants the chief elder to step down and be replaced by someone else——
Everyone looked at Zhaixingzi again, wanting to see his reaction.
But unfortunately, Zhaixingzi kept smiling all the time, as if his ancestor being driven down from the position of grand elder had nothing to do with him.
"Change the Grand Elder? If Senior Brother Zhuang doesn't become the Grand Elder, who will be the Grand Elder?"
Elder Xue frowned and looked at the sect leader to ask.
The sect leader said, "The great elder has agreed to pass the position to Zhaixingzi. From now on, Zhaixingzi will be the great elder of our sect."
This statement was beyond the expectations of everyone present.
Everyone originally thought that when Zhaixingzi returned to the sect this time, he would fight for the position of sect leader no matter what.
But who would have thought that he did not take action against the Tang family, but instead took action against his own ancestor and snatched his ancestor's position.
"Although Zhaixingzi is young, his cultivation and original strength are enough to take the position of the Grand Elder."
Elder Xue said: "So if Zhaixingzi is appointed as the chief elder, I have no objection."
The others nodded, thinking that this arrangement was the best.
Firstly, when Zhaixingzi seized the throne, he was actually seizing his position as the banker, which would not have any impact on other families.
Secondly, as Zhaixingzi is the grand elder, it is impossible for him to seize the position of sect leader in a short period of time.
In this way, the sect also avoids the danger of internal strife for the throne.
It can be said that such an arrangement is the best solution to maintain the unity of the sect at present.
"Okay, since everyone has no objection, then let's conduct the succession ceremony for the Great Elder in front of the Grand Master."
