"This matter has been discussed by the Elder Pavilion and the sect master, and we have no objections."
"That's why I summoned you here today because I want to ask for your opinions."
"Are you willing to participate in this martial arts competition?"
The great elder asked Lin Bai, Li Juenian, Zhou Xinjun, Bai Yifei and others.
The sleeve of Bai Yifei's left arm is empty, and the arm he tore apart has not been replaced.
He said: "As disciples of the sect, we should fight for the glory of the sect! Bai Yifei will go all out for this matter and will never refuse."
Li Juenian also said coldly: "Heaven and Earth Sect has been bullying us for a long time. This battle is unavoidable for us. I am also willing to go to Heaven and Earth Sect to participate in the martial arts contest!"
After Bai Yifei and Li Juenian expressed their opinions one after another, Zhou Xinjun, Liang Lao and others also expressed no opinion.
Li Yuanzong had secretly surrendered to Tiandimen. For him, there was no gain or loss in his trip to Tiandimen, so he had no reason to refuse.
"Okay, it seems that everyone has no objection, so let's let it be settled."
After asking some questions, the great elder said loudly.
"I have an opinion."
Just as the Great Elder made the announcement, a different voice came.
Everyone looked back and all their eyes fell on the speaker.
This person is none other than Lin Bai.
"Great Elder, why didn't you ask me if I had any opinions?"
Lin Bai asked with a frown.
During this trip, he participated in the Dao Discussion Challenge held by Tiandimen. As the holy son of Tianshui Sect, Lin Bai naturally had a duty to do so.
Moreover, this matter also happened because of Lin Bai. The elder thought that Lin Bai would not have stage fright, so he did not ask any more questions.
The great elder glanced at Chu Xi doubtfully and was confused for a moment.
Chu Xi asked: "Shengzi Lin Bai, do you have any opinions?"
Lin Bai said loudly: "The arrangements made by the Great Elder just now are indeed watertight and foolproof."
"In the final analysis, the Great Elder and the sect are worried that the Heaven and Earth Sect will do evil things to us. After all, we have already learned from the mistakes of Senior Brother Li Lingtian five thousand years ago."
"But have you ever thought about it, elders, if the Heaven and Earth Sect is determined to let us go without ever returning?"
The First Elder thought carefully for a while and said: "It is precisely because we considered that the Heaven and Earth Sect would take action against us that I made such an arrangement. Does the Holy Son think anything is inappropriate?"
Lin Bai smiled and said: "If the Heaven and Earth Gate is determined to prevent us from coming back, with the arrangement of the Great Elder, do you think we can come back?"
The First Elder and the other elders all frowned, as if they did not understand what Lin Bai meant.
"What does the Holy Son want to say? To put it bluntly, we don't understand."
Li Zai'en was more straightforward and told Lin Bai directly that he didn't understand and asked Lin Bai to explain clearly.
Lin Bai said: "According to the arrangement of the great elder, there are a total of fifteen disciples going to the Heaven and Earth Gate to participate in the martial arts competition, and there are a total of eight elders protecting us."
"These fifteen disciples are considered to be the most outstanding and outstanding disciples in the Water Sect today."
"The eight elders who protect us are currently the most advanced elders in Tianshui Sect."
"This arrangement seems to be absolutely foolproof."
"But as I just said, if Tiandimen is determined to prevent us from coming back, and we send so many elite forces to Tiandimen, wouldn't that give Tiandimen a chance to catch them all in one fell swoop?"
Lin Baiyu would never stop dying if he wasn't shocked.
As soon as this statement came out, it immediately caused many elders to think deeply.
Even the Great Elder, Li Zai'en and others narrowed their eyes and began to deduce various possibilities in their minds. As they slowly continued to deduce, they felt more and more that what Lin Bai said made sense.
Think about it carefully, if the Tiandi Sect, regardless of face, insists on letting all the disciples of the Tianshui Sect who go to participate in the martial arts competition to die in the Tiandi Sect, then wouldn't it mean that as many disciples are gone as there are disciples to die?
These fifteen disciples and eight elders all have the foundation accumulated by Tianshui Sect over thousands of years.
If these fifteen disciples and eight elders all died at the Heaven and Earth Gate, it would definitely be a huge loss to the Tianshui Sect.
"The Holy Son is very thoughtful."
"What the Holy Son said is not unreasonable. If the Heaven and Earth gatekeepers jump over the wall and kill all the elders and disciples who went to participate in the competition, then our Tianshui Sect will suffer great losses..."
"This matter still needs to be considered in the long run."
Many elders strongly agreed with Lin Bai's statement.
The Great Elder and Li Zai'en looked at each other and deduced it in their minds, sending chills down their spines.
The great elder said: "This matter... is due to my lack of careful consideration!"
Lin Bai smiled and said: "This is not because the Great Elder has not considered this matter carefully. As I said just now, the Great Elder's arrangement is indeed foolproof, but I am afraid that the Heaven and Earth Gate will not care about face and jump over the wall to kill us."
The great elder asked: "Then I wonder if the Holy Son will pay any attention to it?"
Lin Bai said: "I said it at the Holy Son's succession ceremony. The Heaven and Earth Sect has issued a Taoism challenge to us. We don't need too many Tianshui Sect disciples and elders to go. I can go there alone!"
"Are you going alone?" When Qiao Mo heard this, he exclaimed regardless of etiquette.
"no."
Qiao Mo shouted to Lin Bai anxiously.
As soon as Lin Bai said this, not only Qiao Mo disagreed, but more than half of the elders also disagreed.
Lin Bai said: "Elders, please listen to me."
"I am the Holy Son of Tianshui Sect, and now I have the status to represent Tianshui Sect."
"I go to the Heaven and Earth Sect alone. Even if I die in the Heaven and Earth Sect, the loss to the sect will not be great, at least not all outstanding disciples will die."
"If I unfortunately die in the hands of the Heaven and Earth Sect, the sect can still train other saint sons!"
"Bai Yifei may be the best choice for the next Holy Son. If I die, the sect can seriously consider Bai Yifei."
Lin Bai said this.
Bai Yifei, who was standing silently aside, suddenly raised his head and looked at Lin Bai in shock.
Bai Yifei never dreamed that Lin Bai would propose that he take over as the next Holy Son at this moment.
Moreover, he had many unresolved grievances with Lin Bai before.
However, Lin Bai ignored the previous suspicion and still recommended him in front of the sect.
Bai Yifei felt happy at first, then his expression darkened, and a self-deprecating smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Bai Yifei suddenly felt that his own level was very different from Lin Bai's.
Now thinking back on what he did to Lin Bai before, Bai Yifei felt that it was so childish and ridiculous.
No wonder the sect chose Lin Bai to become the Holy Son instead of him.
From Bai Yifei's perspective, it seems that the sect has made a very clear decision.
The great elder said decisively: "The Holy Son wants to go alone. There is no need to discuss this matter anymore. There is absolutely no such possibility."
"Even if Tianshui Sect breaks the contract and does not participate in this martial arts competition, the Holy Son will not be allowed to go alone."
"It's going to be embarrassing soon. Tianshui Sect has embarrassed a lot of people over the years. It doesn't matter this time or twice."
The great elder's tone was soft, but his words were strong.
A picture of Lin Bai's determination that he would not let Lin Bai go if he wanted to go alone.
