Chapter 224: The Sword-Holding Elder

Chapter 224 The Sword-Holding Elder

"Okay, you are so old, but you still cry all the time."

Ye Qiu joked, feeling a little embarrassed for Lin Qingzhu.

Seeing so many people around, I felt a little shy for a moment, and my pretty face suddenly turned red.

Damn it, Master is laughing at me again.

He muttered a few words but made no sound.

After a while, when the atmosphere was almost over, Meng Tianzheng's old face suddenly showed a smile, which gradually became evil.

Ye Qiu passed the first position of Zixia Peak to Lin Qingzhu today because he wanted to get away and be lazy.

How could Meng Tianzheng let him get his wish? The evil spirit in his heart suddenly emerged.

Just watching him slowly walk out, under everyone's gaze, he said: "Everyone, I have something to announce today."

"Um?"

"What's the matter?"

Everyone's attention was immediately attracted, and Ye Qiu was also stunned for a moment.

Seeing the strange smile on Meng Tianzheng's old face, there was always an ominous premonition.

"Haha... From now on, I, Butian Sect, will re-open the position of Sword Holding Elder."

"The original leader of Zixia Peak, Ye Qiu, will succeed..."

"What!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was shocked.

Everyone present looked at each other, and all the disciples of Butian Sect were even more surprised.

They knew very well what this sword-holding elder meant.

That is the existence with the highest authority and majesty in the entire religion that is superior to the leader.

Only the strongest member of the Butian Sect can succeed, and others do not have this qualification at all.

It can be said that this position is the highest position in the Butian Sect so far.

For hundreds of years, the only person who could sit on this position was Taoist Xuantian back then.

It's a pity that after his death, this position was abandoned, and no one can succeed him.

No one expected that Meng Tianzheng would announce today that Ye Qiu would succeed him.

Everyone was shocked, but then they thought about it.

"That's right. With Zhenren Ye's cultivation at this time, he is qualified for this position."

"The great emperor of the world, it would be better to say whether this sword-wielding elder is worthy of him."

No one refuted Meng Tianzheng's words. Ye Qiu should sit in this position.

Because his strength is enough to conquer everyone present.

"I agree."

Qi Wuhui was the first to speak, lest Ye Qiu refuse and directly add fuel to the fire.

Mingyue covered her mouth and smiled, gave Ye Qiu a secret eyebrow, smiled provocatively, and said, "Brother Headmaster, I agree too."

"Hehe... Since you all agree, how can I, Lao Yang, object? I also agree."

Yang Wudi grinned and admired Ye Qiu from the bottom of his heart. He sat in this position without any objection in his heart.

The leaders of the Seven Meridians began to express their agreement one after another, and the other elders also nodded silently in agreement.

Ye Qiu deserves the position of sword-holding elder.

Watching their performance, Ye Qiu smiled faintly, "Haha, senior brother, I really have you! You even tricked me."

As a joke, Ye Qiu did not resist, while Meng Tianzheng smiled sheepishly.

The main reason is that he is old and lacks the ability to succeed, so he is ready to let Liu Qingfeng come up and experience it.

He is still young and may not have much experience in this important religious matter. He can easily panic when something happens.

With Ye Qiu here, maybe he could feel better, and Meng Tianzheng would feel relieved.

He guaranteed with his life that he had absolutely no selfish motives and was purely considering the future of the sect.

Just like when he first succeeded to the throne, he had Uncle Xuantian escorting him all the way, and he was able to get to where he is today.

Now, he is in critical condition. If one day in the future, his legs suddenly kick off, he will be dead.

Who can Liu Qingfeng count on?

Meng Tianzheng believed that Ye Qiu would not refuse his request and would not fail to guess his intentions.

"Um……"

Ye Qiu took a deep breath, looked back at Liu Qingfeng who was standing behind Meng Tianzheng, nodded, and said: "In that case, fine, I'd like to sit here..."

Ye Qiu agreed. Anyway, the sword-bearing elder was just a vacant position, with great power and high status.

He doesn't need to do anything or perform any duties, he just needs to take action when the sect is in trouble.

He is still the same person, still the master of Zixia Peak, he just has an additional identity.

Back then, his master, Taoist Xuantian, held two positions, so Ye Qiu could be regarded as inheriting his position.

I just don’t know if Lin Qingzhu can inherit the position of the sword-wielding elder after him?

Ye Qiu didn't know this, but he was quite confident in his disciple.

boom……

In the Yuqing Hall, when everyone was discussing when to hold the heaven-sacrifice ceremony, suddenly there was a loud rumbling sound in the sky.

"what happened?"

In the square, all the disciples taking part in the Butian Sect's entrance examination looked up.

I saw flames rising into the sky, which seemed to be the sound of two pieces of heaven and earth colliding. The fierce collision produced a bright fire above the nine heavens.

Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked.

Ye Qiu walked out of the Yuqing Palace, raised his head and stared at Tianyuan, frowning, then calmed down and said: "The great era is coming."

"The first realm has collided, and there will be a second and third one next..."

"Senior brother, you should prepare early. The war among all races is about to begin."

Hearing Ye Qiu's instructions, everyone suddenly trembled in their hearts.

"War of all races?"

What's the meaning? not understand well.

Just listen to Ye Qiu continue to explain: "On the opposite side of the other shore, there are these seven realms, where all kinds of creatures and big races grow."

"Now the eight wastelands are united into one, and the eight realms are merging to form a new great world."

"In the future, you will see many powerful races and various natural supreme beings."

"This Immortal Road Competition officially begins from now on."

In the void, Ye Qiu vaguely saw a dragon hovering above the nine heavens. It was a relic of the dragon clan.

Its shining debut officially kicked off this war of all races.

Hearing Ye Qiu's words, everyone suddenly felt a sense of urgency in their hearts.

Once other worlds come closer, conflicts between races will definitely break out, and all races will look down on each other.

Indirectly, it will trigger a fight, and then... it will be a bloody battle.

A bloody battle will prove who is the strongest race in this world.

Who has the noblest bloodline.

This is related to the reputation of the human race. How can these people not be nervous in the future?

After all, they are the real contenders.

Listening to what Ye Qiu said, Meng Tianzheng took a deep breath, turned around and said to everyone: "The apprenticeship ceremony will continue."

With this order from Meng Tianzheng, the Butian Sect's disciple recruitment ceremony was once again launched.

Ye Qiu did not follow them, but called Lin Qingzhu and said, "Disciple, how about it? Is there anyone among this group of disciples who can fall into your eyes?"

Lin Qingzhu shook her head. From the beginning of the apprenticeship ceremony to now, she has been observing, but no one has been able to catch her eye.

Therefore, until now, she has not even received a disciple.

Ye Qiu smiled and said comfortingly: "It's okay. When your master respected me for the first apprenticeship ceremony, I got nothing."

"Don't be impatient. Purple Cloud Peak accepts disciples. Unlike other mountains, it only depends on fate."

"If you think it's appropriate, just accept it without asking me."

After hearing this, Lin Qingzhu had a faint smile on his face, his eyes were clear and moving, and he was very beautiful.

He smiled playfully and said: "Master, I haven't learned even one ten thousandth of Master's skills, and I don't want to accept a disciple yet."

"Qingzhu still wants to follow Master and study for a few more years."

As soon as these words came out, Ye Qiu's heart trembled and he turned back to look at her seriously.

So, that’s what she thought?

Hearing her reveal her heart, Ye Qiu felt a little guilty. It seemed that he had acted too hastily.

She has experienced tragedies in which her family was destroyed and her family was destroyed. After going up the mountain, she has been growing up under her own protection.

There has been attachment and dependence in my heart.

Leaving her to accept these responsibilities alone in such a hasty manner made her feel a little disappointed.

It was as if I had lost the most important thing about myself.

She is still a little girl herself, so it is indeed a bit difficult for her to suddenly be asked to be someone else's master.

It’s not that I’m not capable, it’s mainly a matter of my heart.

"hehe……"

Ye Qiu smiled softly, gently brushed the hair between her eyebrows, and said, "Okay, since you don't want to accept a disciple, then we won't accept him."

"No matter what, you are my master's good disciple. As long as my master is still here, I will not let you suffer any injustice."

Ye Qiu said from the bottom of his heart that he had this sense of responsibility in his heart since he accepted them as his disciples.

There wasn't much he could do, he just wanted them to live happily under his protection. It would be nice if they were happier.

As for whether Zixia Peak can be carried forward, this is actually not important.

If Ye Qiu cared about this, he would have opened the mountain gate long ago and recruited many disciples.

Almost every leader of Zixia Peak has this idea. I don’t know if it is related to the mental method they cultivate.

They're all pretty lazy.

The previous leader took on Taoist Xuantian as a disciple, and Taoist Xuantian took on Ye Qiu as a disciple.

But when we arrived at Ye Qiu's place, he broke the record and collected three.

Compared with them, Ye Qiu is simply a model worker.

It's amazing.

So, grow the mountains? To Zixiafeng, this is fart.

As long as I can ensure that the inheritance continues, why collect so much? Aren't you tired?

Hearing what Master said, Lin Qingzhu was extremely moved and smiled sincerely, very sweetly.

She was already slim and graceful, but if she hadn't had a cold personality, she would definitely be a fairy that everyone loved.

Lin Qingzhu was very happy in her heart. She didn't want to be the leader of Zixia Peak. She just wanted to be a good disciple of Master, follow him and take care of him. That would be enough for her.

"Well, Master is the best."

Lin Qingzhu smiled sweetly, very happy, showing a rare playful expression.

"Okay, although you don't accept disciples, you still have to follow the rules. Go ahead..."

"You are now the leader of Zixia Peak."

Ye Qiu reminded Lin Qingzhu, who was startled and suddenly remembered that she was now the leader of Zixia Peak.

The apprenticeship ceremony over there has already begun, and she, the leader of Zixia Peak, is still here and not attending.

"ah……"

Lin Qingzhu was startled, quickly bid farewell to his master, and quickly ran to his seat.
