125: Chen Yi becomes the sect leader!

Hearing the Yu Hua Sect Master’s words, the Elders all fell into contemplation.

They felt that the Yu Hua Sect Master was right.

Chen Yi, whether in strength or prestige, was fully capable of assuming the position of Sect Master!

The most crucial point was that by making him the Sect Master, it would create a deeper bond between him and the Yuhua Sect, ensuring that from then on, the Yuhua Sect and he would rise and fall together.

“But… will Chen Yi agree?”

“Yeah, letting him become a Sect Master at such a young age, managing the entire Yuhua Sect, will it put too much pressure on him?”

“Yeah, I also think it might be too hasty.”

“Hmm, let’s first ask for the Saint’s opinion.”

Hearing this, everyone quickly called Chen Yi over.

The Yu Hua Sect Master explained his idea to Chen Yi.

After listening, Chen Yi nodded slightly, “Becoming the Sect Master, huh? Sure.”

At these words, everyone was stunned.

No way.

You’re actually that decisive?

Without even considering it.

If it were anyone else, they might think the person was greedy for power, but the person in front of them was Chen Yi, so they didn’t think that way.

After all, he cultivates the Path of Emotional Detachment and views power very lightly.

“Saint, what are your thoughts?”

Elder Yunxiao asked.

“I am the Saint of the Yuhua Sect, and one day, I will inevitably sit in the position of Sect Master; now, it’s just a slight advancement,” Chen Yi said indifferently.

“Moreover, once I become the Sect Master, I can develop the Yuhua Sect, making it the top power in the Xuan Yuan World. At that time, with a single command from me, no one in the world would dare to disobey! This way, I can also better uphold the Righteous Path and protect all living beings!” Chen Yi thought for a moment and continued.

Hearing this, everyone looked at him with a hint of admiration.

“Upholding the Righteous Path, protecting all living beings! What a grand ambition!”

“Haha, good, good, good, truly worthy of being the Saint of my Yuhua Sect! Ordinary people, hearing someone’s ambition is to uphold the Righteous Path and protect all living beings, would only think such an ambition is too vulgar, too grand and empty, impractical! But they think this way mostly because they lack such ability! But you, Saint, are different. Since these words come from you, we choose to believe you!!”

“Indeed, upholding the Righteous Path, protecting all living beings! These eight short characters contain an unimaginable weight behind them. Ordinary people wouldn’t even dare to think about it, let alone do it. Saint, you have not disappointed us!”

“The position of Sect Master belongs to none other than you!”

“Good, since the Saint has agreed, let’s choose a day to hold the succession ceremony and invite heroes from all sides to come and observe!” the Yu Hua Sect Master said with a smile.

At this moment.

A System prompt sounded in Chen Yi’s mind.

“Ding!! Host’s ambition is grand: upholding the Righteous Path and protecting all living beings! This is the true meaning of the Path of Emotional Detachment! No personal affections, only great love! Far surpasses personal affections between a man and a woman by countless times! This System is deeply moved!”

“Rewarding Host with a Luck binding with the Yuhua Sect!”

“Note: After binding Luck with the Yuhua Sect, every development of the Yuhua Sect will in turn promote the Host’s cultivation efficiency and enhance the Host’s strength!”

“Note: The Luck binding will take effect once the Host becomes the Yu Hua Sect Master!”

Hearing this, Chen Yi was thoughtful.

Luck binding…

Does that mean the better the Yuhua Sect develops, the stronger I become?!

That’s a good reward.

He had originally planned to cultivate the Yuhua Sect well, and now with the Luck binding, his resolve was even firmer.

“Although I can take over the position of Sect Master, I may not directly manage the affairs of the Yuhua Sect, as my primary focus right now is cultivation!” Chen Yi said.

The Elders nodded slightly, indicating their understanding.

“Indeed, only when your cultivation improves can you better lead the Yuhua Sect. This is not difficult; we can simply choose an acting Sect Master!”

“Hmm, for the position of acting Sect Master, why don’t you, the Sect Master, continue to serve?” Tianhuo Peak Lord said, looking at the Yu Hua Sect Master.

The Yu Hua Sect Master was stunned.

No way.

I was already thinking of retiring, why do I still have to manage things?!!

“How about you all pick someone else? I’m going into seclusion.”

The Yu Hua Sect Master firmly refused.

Everyone was a bit troubled.

“If the Sect Master doesn’t act as the acting Sect Master, then who should?”

At this moment.

A sword light entered the main hall.

The person who arrived was… Liu Wuqing.

He smiled faintly, “I heard you all summoned my disciple for a discussion. May I know what it’s about, and may I listen in?”

Seeing him, everyone’s eyes lit up.

“Grand Elder, you’ve come just in time.”

“Grand Elder, you’ve just come out of seclusion recently and even had a Breakthrough to the Supreme Realm. What a joyous occasion! You shouldn’t need to go into seclusion again anytime soon, right?”

Tianhuo Peak Lord asked with a smile.

Liu Wuqing felt that these guys’ smiles were a bit strange.

But he still answered truthfully, “Probably not.”

“Haha, that’s truly excellent! We just happen to have something here that requires your help, Grand Elder!” Tianhuo Peak Lord said with a smile.

“No, no, no, to be precise, the Saint has something that requires your help, Grand Elder!” Divine Sword Elder said with a faint smile.

Liu Wuqing looked at Chen Yi with some confusion, “What do you need?”

Chen Yi said indifferently, “I’m going to be the Sect Master.”

“What?”

Liu Wuqing was stunned.

You’re going to be the Sect Master?

Then should I call you Sect Master, or still call you disciple?

Also, how long have you been in the Yuhua Sect, and you’re already becoming the Sect Master directly?

Is there such a thing?

Liu Wuqing was a bit slow to react.

And Tianhuo Peak Lord continued, “That’s right, the Saint is about to become the Sect Master, and we plan to find him an acting Sect Master!”

“That person wouldn’t happen to be…” Liu Wuqing had a premonition.

“That’s right, that person is you.”

Liu Wuqing: … … … …

What kind of situation is this?

His own disciple becomes the Sect Master, and he becomes the acting Sect Master. It sounds nice to be called acting Sect Master, but isn’t that just working for his own disciple??

Does he, as the Revered Master, still have any Face left?

“Can I refuse?”

Liu Wuqing said.

Meanwhile, Skyfire Elder, Divine Sword Elder, and even the Yu Hua Sect Master had already started surrounding him, working on his mindset.

“Grand Elder, this is a good thing!”

“That’s right, just think, you’re the acting Sect Master, and your disciple is the Sect Master. From now on, the entire Yuhua Sect will be decided by the two of you. How prestigious is that?”

“Tsk tsk, I’m so envious.”

“Grand Elder, throughout the entire Yuhua Sect, besides you, there is no one else who can bear this heavy responsibility. You absolutely must not decline!”

“Grand Elder, you are a pillar of the Yuhua Sect, and one of only two Supreme in the Yuhua Sect. As for this acting Sect Master position, who else but you!”

Everyone spoke one after another.

Liu Wuqing felt his head spin.

Finally, he could only nod helplessly and say, “I agree then.”

His agreement was not only for the Yuhua Sect but also for his disciple.

After all, his disciple becoming the Sect Master, while a good thing, was still young and inexperienced. He should help him more.

As for whether his disciple being the Sect Master while he was only the acting Sect Master would make him lose Face, he didn’t care too much about that.

Just like that, the position of Sect Master was decided.

It would be announced to the entire Yuhua Sect in a few days.
