308: Cheng Jiansheng

"What? This..." After knowing he was Jiang Ye, no one dared to speak. This was someone who could take on three God King Realms at once!

An Elder of the Du Family said, "The Slot Competition has always been a matter decided by our five great families. Won't it be inappropriate to allocate slots directly like this?"

"This situation is special, so do as I say. If you're not satisfied, I can kill until you are!"

The Wang Family youth who spoke earlier said, "Our Wang Family is not comparable to the Shangguan and Liu families. Do you really think you can decide our affairs?"

Jiang Ye looked at him and said, "Then I shall kill you and see what your so-called Wang Family can do to me."

Just as Jiang Ye was about to strike, space rapidly tore open. Before an old man could even step out, he shouted urgently, "Grand Elder Jiang, please show mercy!"

Then he stepped out, gave a respectful bow to Jiang Ye, and said, "Greetings, Grand Elder Jiang! I am the Old Ancestor of the Wang Family. My Family failed in its teachings just now, and I apologize to Grand Elder Jiang here! Please be magnanimous and spare him this once!"

"What does this mean?" Everyone was stunned, not knowing why the Wang Family's Old Ancestor had just addressed him as Grand Elder?

*Rip!!* Immediately after, space tore open again with two large gashes, and two people stepped out—the Old Ancestors of the Mu Family and the Du Family!

"Greetings, Grand Elder Jiang! My Du Family is willing to follow your arrangements."

"My Mu Family is also willing to follow Grand Elder Jiang's arrangements!"

Everyone present was bewildered. Why were their Old Ancestors so respectful to Jiang Ye? What was going on with them calling him Grand Elder Jiang?

Jiang Ye said, "Good. Since you know, then let the matter end here! In seven days, I will personally lead the Shengchu Sect Disciples into the Secret Realm. If you are worried about other forces making a move against your people, then follow along. I can offer your people some protection."

"Thank you, Grand Elder Jiang! If they obtain any divine medicine related to repairing Soul trauma then, we will surely hand it over to you."

"Good! Then I thank you in advance. I have other matters to attend to, so that will be all for today. You all go back and prepare!" Jiang Ye was the first to tear through space and leave.

The Wang Family youth asked, "Old Ancestor, what exactly is going on? Why were you so respectful to him?"

"Ignorant fool! You knew he could kill even those in the God King Realm, yet you, a mere God Venerable Realm, dared to provoke him! Just half an hour ago, the Shengchu Sect announced to the entire Inner God Realm that Jiang Ye has become their Grand Elder. That is why I rushed here. If I had been half a step late, the entire Wang Family might have been implicated because of you."

"What? Grand Elder of the Shengchu Sect? How is that possible!"

Others were also buzzing with discussion, and the Shangguan and Liu families were even more shocked! They felt fortunate not to have been completely wiped out by Jiang Ye. Now that even the Shengchu Sect had directly made him a Grand Elder, it was clear just how terrifying he was!

Shangguan Tianhong was the most aware of his terror, having witnessed him annihilate a Sixth Stage God King Realm with his own eyes.

Divine Dragon Hall

In the conference hall, the atmosphere was not good. The Grand Elder had been killed for no reason, and the culprit could not be found. The three God Tribulation Realm Elite Disciples just sent to recruit Jiang Ye had been directly killed by him! Now that the Shengchu Sect had announced Jiang Ye's appointment as Grand Elder, they had actually thought of using the status of an Inner Sect Disciple to recruit a peerless young talent capable of killing a God King. Now, the outside world not only thought they were stupid but also completely lacking in courage!

Second Elder Li Yong said, "Hall Master, this Jiang Ye has now openly killed three Elite Disciples of our Divine Dragon Hall. This is a first in the Inner God Realm. With such a serious provocation, we must do something!"

Hall Master's expression was very grim as he cursed, "I told you to send someone to recruit him, and what kind of people did you send? They got into a conflict with him before even saying a few words. He can kill even those in the God King Realm, yet the idiots you sent still acted arrogant in front of him! Their deaths were in vain! Absolute trash! And you too—did you think that because the Grand Elder is dead, you, the Second Elder, could take his place? I can tell you for certain, stop dreaming!"

"Hall Master, please forgive me! Please give me a chance to redeem myself. I will definitely bring Jiang Ye back to the Divine Dragon Hall."

Hall Master sighed and said, "You useless trash! If it weren't for your daughter becoming the Old Ancestor's eleventh concubine, do you think you'd have the ability to climb to this position of Second Elder? Are you thinking of capturing people related to Jiang Ye and then threatening him to join the Divine Dragon Hall? Before you do that, you'd better announce to the world that you've left the Divine Dragon Hall first, you waste!"

"I..." Li Yong's Face was not only embarrassed but also very ugly. Although everyone in the Divine Dragon Hall knew his situation, being scolded by the Hall Master in public was exceptionally humiliating!

At this moment, Li Yong's son-in-law, the Divine Dragon Hall's Old Ancestor Zhuang Lilang, appeared in the hall and said, "As a Hall Master, you should give those below you some chances to prove themselves. Li Yong, if you can handle this matter well this time, then you can take the position of Grand Elder for now!"

"Yes! I will definitely handle it perfectly."

Hall Master said, "Have you considered the consequences of letting him do this? That Jiang Ye has only been in the Divine Realm for a few short months, and now he can kill a Second Stage God King Realm. If we completely fall out with him, given his character, the Divine Dragon Hall will surely Face great trouble in the future!"

Zhuang Lilang said, "Is it not because of your own incompetence? First you sent an Elder to recruit him, then you sent a few Disciples. The Shengchu Sect sent their Vice Sect Master, and even brought a supreme elder token. As the leader of a power, you have no courage and only know how to blame subordinates after something goes wrong. I think you should stop being the Hall Master!"

"You... Heh! Then why don't I step down and let your father-in-law be the Hall Master? Would that satisfy you?"

Zhuang Lilang said angrily, "Hall Master! You dare to mock this old man?"

At this moment, several other Old Ancestors of the Divine Dragon Hall appeared. Hall Master's father, Long Xingtian, said, "Arguing like this over a small matter, when did the Divine Dragon Hall become so pathetic?"

Another Old Ancestor, Lin Tai, said, "Our Divine Dragon Hall's Face cannot be lost. Since that person joining the Shengchu Sect is already a done deal, I think we should have Cheng Jiansheng go and challenge him. They are of the same generation, so the Shengchu Sect has no reason to refuse."

"What?" Everyone was shocked! Cheng Jiansheng was the number one Prodigy of their Divine Dragon Hall. A year ago, he had already reached the Eighth Stage of God Tribulation Realm and could contend with a Second Stage God King Realm. Now that a year had passed, no one knew exactly how terrifying his strength had become.

Long Xingtian said, "Do we really want to do this? The impact of a battle between the two of them is not as simple as the death of a few Elite Disciples."

Zhuang Lilang said, "If our Divine Dragon Hall's Elite Disciples are openly killed and we take no action, won't the outside world think our Divine Dragon Hall is afraid of the Shengchu Sect!"

Li Yong said smugly, "Then I will go to the Shengchu Sect right now and publicly issue him a challenge!"
