Chu Xi quite agreed with Lin Bai's opinion. Lin Bai had just said that he would first show his sincerity and determination to His Highness King Chen before the Holy Lotus Palace, the Chen family, and the Tianxian Sect.
This is what Lin Bai called "giving help in times of need is far better than adding icing on the cake."
As soon as Chu Xi heard that a highly respected elder was going to be sent to the imperial capital, Chu Xi immediately looked at Li Zai'en and the elder.
The Great Elder and Li Zai'en are undoubtedly the most powerful elders in Tianshui Sect today.
Although their cultivation strength is not high, they have worked hard for the sect throughout their lives, worked hard, and worked for the sect wholeheartedly and meticulously. These things were not only seen by Chu Xi, but also by the disciples in the sect.
Therefore, these two people have considerable status in the eyes of Chu Xi, in the elders' pavilion, and in the hearts of the disciples.
In addition to these two people, there are second elders, third elders, fourth elders, fifth elders, sixth elders, etc. in the Tianshui Sect. All of them have been recognized by the sect or their disciples and elders in some aspects.
, they are all considered to be high-ranking people.
Feeling Chu Xi's gaze, the elder said solemnly: "I am willing to go to the imperial capital!"
Li Zaien also said at the same time: "I am also willing to go!"
Chu Xi hesitated immediately. After thinking for a while, she asked Lin Bai: "Which one of them do you think is suitable?"
Lin Bai glanced at the Great Elder and Li Zai'en, and said: "Let Elder Li Zai'en go. Although the Great Elder is extremely intelligent, he is too hesitant when faced with a choice, and is not suitable for going to the dragon's den of power in the imperial capital."
The Great Elder wanted to say something, but after thinking about Lin Bai's words carefully, he felt that there was some truth in it, so he had no choice but to shake his head.
This may really be a major flaw in him.
Chu Xi said: "Then I'll ask Elder Li Zai'en to take a trip."
Li Zai'en cupped his hands and said: "For the sake of the sect, I have no obligation to refuse!"
"It's just... I'm afraid it will take some time now that I leave, and the investigation into Mu Huaqing's death may have to be put on hold."
Li Zai'en looked at Lin Bai and the great elder intentionally or unintentionally.
Hearing the words Mu Huaqing, the elder's eyes twitched twice.
Chu Xi asked: "Have you gained anything from this long investigation?"
Li Zaien shook his head and said, "No."
Chu Xi said: "Then let's put it aside for now."
Hearing this, the great elder almost wanted to say something, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them again.
Lin Bai couldn't help but said to the Great Elder: "Great Elder, although I have said some things many times, but when this topic is brought up again today, I still want to say one more thing!"
"I didn't kill Mu Huaqing!"
The Great Elder raised his head, his eyes were blood red, and said: "I had begun to believe your words, but when the news came from the Dongtian Hunting Park, I gradually began to doubt you!"
"Because the strength you showed in Dongtian Hunting Park is many times greater than that of Mu Huaqing. You are the only one who has the chance to kill Mu Huaqing!"
Lin Bai gave a bitter smile and asked: "Great Elder, since you have seen my true strength, let me ask you, if I kill Mu Huaqing, what can you do to defeat me?"
The Great Elder was stunned when he heard this, then shook his head slightly and said: "You have been a member of the sect for less than three years just now, so the strength you have shown is not the result of practicing in the sect, but the strength you originally possessed.
"
"If you have such strength in a situation where there is no support from the sect, no protection from the family, no resources for practice, and no panacea, you will definitely have many things to rely on and many ways to save your life!"
"Even if I am fully prepared, I may not be able to kill you!"
Lin Bai smiled and said confidently: "That's right. I'm really not afraid of the Great Elder!"
"Then if that's the case, I'm not afraid of you, so why don't I dare to admit it?"
The great elder narrowed his eyes and stared at Lin Bai coldly.
Lin Bai gave the answer and said: "That's because... I didn't kill Mu Huaqing at all!"
"I still say what I said. If you want to investigate Mu Huaqing's death, you don't need to waste more time on me. If you send someone to investigate your fourth disciple Li Yuanzong, you may get unexpected results."
The Great Elder said coldly: "Although Li Yuanzong's cultivation is good, he is not Mu Huaqing's opponent."
Lin Bai said: "What if there is someone nearby to help? What if the person helping is a strong person in the Taiyi Daoguo realm?"
The great elder said coldly: "The ancient secret realm, Taiyi Daoguo realm warriors cannot enter!"
"That's not necessarily true!" Lin Bai smiled slightly, his eyes sparkling, and said: "My master once said that there are flaws in the way of heaven, and everything has flaws. You are so sure, there is no way to avoid it in this world.
Pass the formation restrictions of the ancient secret realm?"
The great elder narrowed his eyes severely, lowered his eyebrows and fell into deep thought.
Lin Bai stopped paying attention to the Great Elder. After saying this, Lin Bai hoped that the Great Elder could figure it out on his own.
Lin Bai also knew that this was difficult, because Bai Yifei, Zhou Xinjun, Mu Huaqing, and Li Yuanzong were equivalent to the sons of the great elder, and they had been taken care of and raised since childhood.
Now let him, an old father, believe that it was Li Yuanzong who killed Mu Huaqing. It was a fratricide, a fratricide.
This truth is too cruel.
Lin Bai then said to Chu Xi: "The matter of supporting His Royal Highness Prince Chen to become the Holy Son should not be revealed to too many people in the sect until Elder Li Zai'en returns from the imperial capital."
"Wait until Elder Li Zai'en returns from the imperial capital, and then slowly reveal it to the elders you can trust, so that they know the sect's decision."
Chu Xi nodded slightly and agreed.
Li Zai'en said: "That matter should not be delayed. I will pack up and set off overnight."
The secret talks in Huagu came to an end, and Lin Bai, Chu Xi, the Great Elder, and Li Zai'en made plans for the future of Tianshui Sect.
This grand plan was led by Chu Xi, Lin Bai made suggestions, and Li Zai'en and the great elders fully assisted.
So far, only these four people know the future plans of Tianshui Sect.
That night, Li Zai'en was ordered to go to the treasure house to select a few treasures. Under the cover of the night, he disguised himself and quietly left the Tianshui Sect and disappeared into the vast sea of people.
Early the next morning, Chu Xi summoned many elders from the Elder Pavilion and the Three Jue disciples from the Tianshui Sect. Thousands of them gathered in the Fushui Hall.
And called Lin Bai to the Fushui Palace.
In front of the elders and many Three Jue disciples, Chu Xi announced to the Tianshui Sect elders and disciples that "Lin Bai has become the Holy Son of the Tianshui Sect" and announced it to the world in the name of the Tianshui Sect.
As Chu Xi said, the Tianshui Sect had not established a Holy Son for ten thousand years, but this time the Holy Son returned to the throne, causing a sensation in the Chu Kingdom.
The Chen family, the Tianxian Sect, the Holy Lotus Palace, His Highness King Chen, the Qian family, the Danxia Sect, and other five families and seven sects all sent congratulatory gifts to the Tianshui Sect.
For a time, Tianshui Sect became the talk of all warriors in the Chu Kingdom after dinner!
This Tianshui Sect, which had long been "excluded" from the five seven sects by the Chu warriors, seems to have come back to life again.
