These elders also hold the authority of other departments, for example, Lin Xiao controls the Law Enforcement Hall.
For example, Xu Li is the Grand Elder of the Presbytery and the Master of the Divine Guard Pavilion.
But now the position is vacant. The boss should have been on top, but the boss is also dead.
So now, the Ninth Elder Fu Yuan is in charge of the Divine Guard Pavilion.
The House of Elders is equivalent to the parliament of some countries. In fact, it has great power and can control any department.
Now that there is no sect leader, the Presbyterian House naturally becomes more majestic.
The first elder is dead, and the second elder Zhang Hong is now the most authoritative figure.
With Zhang Hong's support, Lu Fengyu seemed confident, as if he had become the master of the sect now.
But what Fang Tianhao didn't understand was that if Zhang Hong was so authoritative, why didn't he just follow Xu Li's example and rebel?
In this way... Fang Tianhao can just use force, which is much smoother than what he does now.
When Zhang Hong saw that everyone was almost here, he was the first to speak, with a look of sorrow on his face: "We are deeply saddened by the misfortune of the sect master, but the Tianmen cannot be without an owner for a day. Today the sect master is buried in peace, so we should elect a new sect master, let him
Everyone in Tianmen can feel at ease."
After saying that, Zhang Hong looked around with extraordinary momentum: "Now everyone here can recommend candidates for the master of the sect, or even nominate themselves. Our Tianmen Elders will make the final decision!"
Ninth Elder Fu Yuan suddenly spoke: "Everyone, when the old sect leader was here, he intended to select successors from among the heavenly disciples of the Tianmen. There were only two favorites, Yan Wushuang and Lu Fengyu, and now Yan Wushuang and
Lu Fengyu has also reached the transformation state one after another, so these two are naturally the best candidates!"
Lin Xiao said coldly: "Ninth Elder, you are right. The old sect leader liked these two disciples, but later it was the seventh elder who succeeded the sect leader. The sect leader passed away and left a legacy, passing it on to his disciple Fang Tianhao. This
It is something that several elders and I have witnessed together, and many colleagues in the world can also testify to!"
"What Hall Master Lin said is wrong. When did the Seventh Elder inherit the position of the sect leader? It was just that the old sect leader asked him to take charge of the Tianmen on his behalf, but he was not the real sect leader. The old sect leader only meant that the seventh elder would be temporarily in charge of the sect.
On the other hand, when he comes back, the future sect leader will still be chosen from two disciples, Yan Wushuang and Lu Fengyu!" Fourth Elder Leng Xiu looked solemn.
Liu Yi scolded: "The meaning of being in charge of Tianmen is the same as that of the prince in the ancient imperial court. If there is a change in the master of the sect, the person who is in charge of Tianmen will naturally take up the responsibility of Tianmen immediately. This is reasonable and justified. Besides,
, countless fellow Jianghu people are witnesses!”
For a moment, several elders at the scene were quarreling with each other.
Zhang Hong was calm and composed, and did not say anything to stop him.
Fang Tianhao sat aside and looked at the other heir, Yan Wushuang.
This woman is extremely beautiful, with skin as good as snow and without any blemishes.
Wearing a classic skirt, she looks quite fairy-like, and she really deserves the name Yan Wushuang.
However, Yan Wushuang seemed to feel Fang Tianhao's gaze and looked up.
If Fang Tianhao wants to see a woman, he must be upright and disdain to be sneaky.
Get caught, keep going!
Yan Wushuang raised his eyebrows, seeming a little unhappy.
Fang Tianhao laughed, and then said directly: "Elders, are there some deviations in what you are discussing now?"
Zhang Hong said in surprise: "Oh? This is discussing the candidate for the sect leader. How come it's wrong?"
Fang Tianhao said: "Are you just trying to choose a sect leader? Or do you want to choose a sect leader who can lead Haotianmen to develop and grow?"
Zhang Hong frowned: "What do you mean?"
"I believe everyone present hopes to have a wise sect leader who can lead Tianmen to everlasting prosperity and not put Tianmen in danger. But what crisis are we facing now?"
Fang Tianhao's words made some people at the scene fall into deep thought.
However, there are also direct refutations. For example, Lu Fengyu jumped out: "Fang Tianhao, do you have the right to speak here?"
"If I don't have the right to speak, you don't have the right to speak!" Fang Tianhao gave Lu Fengyu a cold look.
Lu Fengyu's face froze, she opened her mouth to say something, but couldn't.
Fang Tianhao continued: "Since we are choosing the sect leader, what I mean is that not only the people present have the right to speak, but the entire inner sect disciples of the Tianmen should also have the right to speak!"
"Isn't this nonsense? How can ordinary disciples be qualified to give advice on the selection of the sect leader?" An elder was immediately dissatisfied.
Fang Tianhao looked at the people present: "Have you always been elders before? Or did you also climb up from the disciples in the sect? If so, then when you were still disciples, were you from the Tianmen?"
"The master of a sect is responsible for the safety of the entire sect's disciples and the development of the sect. Why don't the Tianmen disciples have the right to choose?"
The more Fang Tianhao talked, the stronger his aura became, and there was even an invisible aura emanating from his body.
Nowadays, Fang Tianhao, who is serious in speech and speech, is like the ancient general who scolded Fang Qiu. Every move and gesture has a majesty that these pure martial arts practitioners do not have.
Fang Tianhao said coldly: "Second Elder, I think how about selecting a few candidates and letting the disciples vote for them. Whoever gets more votes will be the leader of the sect. How about that?"
"good!"
Zhang Hong actually agreed directly, and even added: "That's it, it's hard to follow a promise, and the one with the most votes will naturally be the sect leader!"
At this time, Lin Xiao, Liu Yi, Zeng Ye and others were a little anxious.
Both Lu Fengyu and Yan Wushuang are extremely popular among the inner Tianmen disciples, while Fang Tianhao is a stranger to the vast majority of Tianmen disciples.
In this way, in their view, Fang Tianhao is using his own shortcomings to attack the other's strong points!
However, Fang Tianhao said seriously: "Since the second elder has agreed, let's confirm the candidates!"
Zhang Hong looked at the other elders: "Do you have anything to add, elders?"
Before anyone could say anything, Zhang Hong announced: "That's it. The candidates are naturally Lu Fengyu, Yan Wushuang, and Fang Tianhao, who was chosen by the Seventh Elder. Let all the disciples in the sect vote for these three!"
Lin Xiao couldn't help but said: "Second Elder, this is not fair!"
Zhang Hong saw that Lin Xiao and the others were anxious, but his smile became even brighter, and he laughed and said: "Hall Master Lin, this is the fairest thing, leaving the choice to the disciples in the sect, no matter who is the sect leader, that is the right thing to do.
Everyone chose it themselves, no one can complain!"
"That's right, Hall Master Lin, why do you say it's unfair?"
"Support the second elder!"
"Support this decision!"
Zhang Hong saw so many people supporting him, then looked at Lin Xiao and Liu Yi looked unhappy.
Zhang Hong immediately said majestically: "Okay, no need to argue anymore, it's decided!"
