59: Both daughters rose to prominence

"?"

Ren Zixia was utterly confused;

Looking at her Beloved Disciple's unusual expression, she asked, "Qingxue, are you feeling unwell?"

"Revered Master, I..."

Huang Qingxue's eyes darted around uneasily;

Then, she quickly sat down by holding onto the corner of the table, trying to steer the conversation back, "Revered Master... I just feel that someday, whether it's me or Susu, we'll need to stand on our own... Since we're young now, we should try things we're not good at earlier, so we can handle them with ease in the future... Please let me give it a try!"

"This..."

Ren Zixia didn't know what to say for a moment;

Although she still couldn't believe that her Beloved Disciple would suddenly want to become Sect Master for such a reason, in the end, she chose not to pour cold water on it,

"If that's the case, allow me to go see Palace Master Pei first."

With that, Ren Zixia turned and left.

Whew—

After she left, Huang Qingxue immediately let out a long sigh of relief, sweating profusely, her pretty face flushed with an uncontrollable blush, "Damn Evil Cultivator... I hate you!"

Huang Qingxue blushed, gritted her teeth, her two tightly clenched jade-like hands trembling slightly, but not out of anger toward Chen Qingxuan;

It was an indescribable emotion!

"Won't I think of him every time from now on...?"

Suddenly, Huang Qingxue had a bad premonition;

She didn't want her heart to race uncontrollably at the sight of that handsome face... It was more torturous than killing her;

She didn't want this!

On the other side.

Pei Qingli, who had just finished talking with her Beloved Disciple, ran into Ren Zixia who had come looking for her as soon as she stepped out.

Upon learning from the other that she too had been 'persuaded to step down' by her disciple, for a moment, The two women exchanged a bitter smile, locking eyes.

Ren Zixia asked curiously, "Did Susu also not explain clearly why the two of them suddenly have this idea?"

"She only said it was Qingxue's suggestion." Pei Qingli replied honestly, "By the way, should we let them give it a try?"

"Given their current strength and reputation, they are qualified to take over the School." Ren Zixia hesitated, worried, "But Qingxue's personality... She's not naturally suited for this kind of thing. I'm afraid when she interacts with other factions... she might accidentally kill someone."

"..."

Pei Qingli's expression froze;

Although she felt like laughing, the thought of her own equally unpredictable Beloved Disciple instantly wiped the smile from her face.

After a brief conversation;

In the end, the two still-charming beauties made a decision, "Let's give it a try... They've grown up anyway... Trying won't hurt."

And so,

A few days later, shocking news spread across the Cangyun Continent—

The Divine Phoenix Sect, a top-tier School in the Southern Border, unexpectedly passed the position of Sect Master to the current Saintess, Huang Qingxue!

Immediately after, the Yihua Palace, a top-tier School in the Eastern Land, also released major news: Pei Qingli announced her abdication, passing the position of palace Revered Master to her Beloved Disciple, Jiang Susu.

Instantly, the entire Cangyun Continent was shaken.

After all, high-level experts of top-tier Schools usually don't change unless absolutely necessary, and each change represents a major upheaval;

Especially now, it's not just high-level positions but the leaders themselves, and two top-tier Schools simultaneously sending the same signal.

One can imagine the waves it stirred?

"As far as I know, Palace Master Pei and Sect Master Ren aren't old enough to retire yet, right?"

"Far from it. How many years has Sect Master Ren been in charge of the Divine Phoenix Sect? She and Palace Master Pei are still at an age to make their mark."

"Do you think something bad is about to happen?"

"That's not for us to worry about. I'm more curious... Huang Qingxue and Jiang Susu are so young. Will the Seniors in their Schools willingly submit to them?"

For a time, people from all corners of the world were discussing The two women.

Speculating about the deeper meaning behind it!

At this moment,

On the high platform of the Divine Phoenix Sect.

Huang Qingxue stood proudly, her phoenix eyes sweeping over the Sect Elders as she said clearly, "From now on, I am the Sect Master of the Divine Phoenix Sect. Who agrees, who opposes?"

"Um, Qingxue... What happens if we oppose?"

An Elder tentatively asked.

As soon as these words were spoken, countless intense gazes focused on Huang Qingxue.

But Huang Qingxue remained calm, "Those who follow me prosper, those who oppose me perish!"

Everyone: "..."

"Ahem..."

Ren Zixia was so frightened she rushed onto the high platform, grabbed her Beloved Disciple, and whispered a reminder, "Qingxue, that's not how a Sect Master acts. They are all meritorious members of the Divine Phoenix Sect, and they didn't say they oppose you... Being a Sect Master isn't just about strength; you also need to know how to win people over... Tone it down a bit."

"...Okay!"

Huang Qingxue thought about it and found it reasonable;

So, encouraged by Ren Zixia, the next moment, her tone softened slightly, "I hope everyone will be sensible in the days to come. I don't want to cross swords with you all. After all, if you die... I, the Sect Master, would feel regretful too, okay?"

"?"

Ren Zixia looked as if she doubted her own existence;

Wait... What's the difference?

"Yes... Sect Master Huang makes a good point... We pledge to follow you to the death."

"Haha, with Sect Master Huang leading us from now on, why worry about making enemies... Ah no no, why worry about the Divine Phoenix Sect not achieving glory!"

"..."

Watching the old faces smiling more bitterly than crying, Ren Zixia helplessly pursed her lips, thinking she'd have to properly teach her disciple how to win people over in the future.

At the same time;

The Yihua Palace far in the Eastern Land was also particularly lively.

During the ceremony to transfer the palace Revered Master position, Pei Qingli asked Jiang Susu to give a speech on stage.

After stepping onto the stage, Jiang Susu wasn't shy. Looking at the uniform sea of female figures, she smiled sweetly, "Although my taking over as palace Revered Master is a bit sudden... We're all good sisters usually, so I won't say much. But if you say something that displeases me... You'd better not say it at all!"

"Huh?"

Pei Qingli was taken aback upon hearing this;

Immediately, she hurriedly interrupted Jiang Susu and tried to smooth things over, "What Susu means is... She's already strong enough and will have the ability to lead the Yihua Palace to greater heights in the future... and better protect everyone... Right, Susu?"

"Yes!"

Jiang Susu nodded without hesitation;

After speaking, she raised her hand again, "But I want to add one more thing..."

"Don't add anything."

Pei Qingli didn't dare let her continue, forcibly pulling her Beloved Disciple off the stage.

After all, as her Revered Master, she knew exactly what her disciple was like.

If Jiang Susu hadn't proactively suggested wanting to be palace Revered Master, this matter... would have been considered at least decades later.

After a brief silence, the atmosphere erupted into cheers—

"I've always thought Susu was capable since she was little. Finally, the day has come for her to be palace Revered Master!"

"Exactly, Susu is so kind... kind... Sorry, I'm not good with words."

"Susu is so kind-hearted, she definitely won't treat us poorly!"

The women clapped while exchanging glances, their expressions meaningful.

It wasn't that they doubted Jiang Susu's strength. Not to mention her young age, having lived and cultivated together for so many years, they knew a bit about each other.

Thinking about the new palace Revered Master's blunt way of speaking... they worried for the Yihua Palace... Central Region;

In a tidy small courtyard, Chen Qingxuan sat comfortably in a rocking chair, eyes closed, resting, "One became Sect Master, the other became palace Revered Master... Not bad. It seems because of my appearance, their growth speed is faster than expected... Good!"

"Wait..."

Suddenly, Chen Qingxuan noticed a flaw, "That's not right... Logically, they shouldn't like taking on such positions, right?"

"Damn them... Could they have asked for it themselves?"
