The various rumors about You Hongyan were just an appetizer. Soon, there was heavy news within Bishuixuan that the position of the sect leader might change hands!
At first, many people were still doubtful, but as time went by, more and more people discovered that many of the big guys in the sect looked hasty, as if they had something important on their minds.
"I heard that in a few days, at the Elders' Conference, not only will the candidates for the Qianlong Conference be announced, but a major news will also be announced."
"Is it related to the recent rumor? But the sect leader is still young, how could he change it?"
"Shh! Don't you know that there have long been rumors that the sect leader is no longer able to lead the entire sect, and now he has not appeared for a long time. If the Council of Elders does not appear this time, the ten elders will impeach and choose someone else according to the sectarian law!"
In the past few days, rumors like this have been heard in Li Ye's ears from time to time, and the trend has even become more and more intense.
He knew that this was a group of law enforcement elders who were building momentum! The purpose was to pave the way for a successful summit in a few days.
Although many people are resistant to the change of sect leader, Shui Linglong has not shown up for a long time, and even no one has come forward to clarify the occurrence of such a big commotion, which has made more and more people begin to become suspicious.
Only Li Ye and Liang Jingzhen were the insiders who knew the inside story.
"This can't continue like this. Seven days later, if the master fails to appear at the elders' meeting, according to the sect's rules, the ten elders have the right to impeach the sect leader. As long as six of them agree, the decision can be made!"
In You Hongyan's Cave Mansion, Liang Jingzhen has been coming here every three days in recent days. Although it arouses suspicion, no one goes deeper. After all, it is normal for the only two women among the core disciples to be close to each other.
At this moment, she had a worried look on her face. Once Shui Linglong fell, it would definitely affect her future in the sect. Not to mention this, she couldn't just sit idly by and ignore Shui Linglong's kindness.
"Is it really impossible to get close to Bibo Cave?"
"It's absolutely impossible. Only the ten elders in the sect are qualified to enter. The rest, even the true disciples, are prohibited! Of course, the first disciple is an exception, but Senior Sister Qiu has been traveling since a year ago. So far,
I have not returned, otherwise, if Senior Sister Qiu was here, maybe things would not develop like this."
Qiu Yiren!
Li Ye's mind flashed back to the cold and ruthless look of this woman, and he shook his head slightly. It was unknown whether such a person would really risk offending the law enforcement elders and continue to stand on Shui Linglong's side at this time.
He even suspected that Qiu Yiren had never returned, maybe because he knew the current situation and deliberately avoided staying outside and not coming back.
If this is the case, Li Ye really needs to re-understand his indifference towards this woman.
Shui Linglong was her mentor, and now she was in a great crisis, but this girl had not returned for a long time. He never believed that Qiu Yiren would not get the news! And the reason why she has not appeared yet, after thinking about it, is that this girl has never returned.
I don’t care about my master’s life or death!
"How many of the ten elders can still stand by your master?"
The ten elders are not ordinary elders, any one of them has a heavy weight.
Different from ordinary elders, the top ten elders are often held by some of the most senior and highest-cultivated people in the sect. They rarely appear in public, but once they appear, something big is bound to happen.
"The law enforcement elder himself is one of the top ten elders. In addition, he has good relations with the elders of the Wugong Pavilion, the elders of the Herbal Hall, and the elders of punishment. These people can be regarded as the supporters of the law enforcement elders."
Each of the ten elders of Bishuixuan has an important position.
The law enforcement elder is responsible for the criminal law within the sect! He has huge power!
The Disciplinary Elder is responsible for punishing and rewarding the disciples, and is the most dignified among the disciples.
There is also the Martial Arts Pavilion, which is the department responsible for the various martial arts books of the sect, and its power is beyond doubt.
The Materia Medica Hall is the powerful elder who is responsible for the distribution of elixirs throughout the sect. This shows the importance of the Materia Medica Hall elders.
Li Ye frowned and said, "In other words, among the ten elders, the law enforcement elder already has four votes?"
"Yes, if we get the support of the two elders again, this time..."
It is indeed a serious situation!
Li Ye later learned that in addition to these four elders, the other six elders were the Great Elder, the Second Elder, the Dan Hall Elder, the Chuan Gong Elder, the Dark Hall Elder and the Outer Hall Elder.
The seniority of the First Elder and Second Elder is even one generation higher than that of the Law Enforcement Elder! They are almost in a state of semi-seclusion.
"The First Elder and the Second Elder should be on the master's side. After all, they were the ones who supported the old sect leader's succession."
Among the ten elders, only two are confident?!
Li Ye had to shake his head. As a sect leader, he had to do this. Even if someone took advantage of him this time because he was not injured, sooner or later there would be an explosion.
"In other words, as long as the law enforcement elder recruits two more of the remaining four people, everything will be a foregone conclusion?"
Frowning, in this situation, unless Shui Linglong came forward directly, it might be possible to scare a group of people, but this is obviously unrealistic. So in order to avoid this result, there is only one thing Li Ye and Liang Jingzhen need to do! That is
Wrap all the remaining four people together! Stand on Shui Linglong's side! Maybe we can temporarily overcome this crisis.
But after learning more about it, Li Ye found that this was almost impossible.
There are four elders left, and the elders of the dark hall are rarely encountered. They are mysterious and unpredictable, and even few core disciples have seen them.
The elder Chuan Gong was controlled by the Fan family. Thinking of the relationship between himself and Fan Wei and Fan Tong, Li Ye had a headache.
As for the elders of Dantang and the elders of the outer hall, the elder of the outer hall is an ancestor of the Luo family. This is the only one that Li Ye can convince with some confidence, but he is not 100% sure.
The elder of the Alchemy Hall made Li Ye's heart move!
Alchemy Hall, Alchemy Hall, as the name suggests, this is a place specializing in alchemy. The elder of the Alchemy Hall must be an alchemist! You can guess this with your buttocks.
Sure enough, after asking, I found out that Bishuixuan, as a sixth-grade sect, also has his own Alchemy King! And the elder of the Alchemy Hall is the only Alchemy King held by Bishuixuan!
After hearing the news, Li Ye had an idea in his mind.
But for now, he plans to take care of the Luo family first!
While Li Ye and Liang Jingzhen were running around, the law enforcement elders were not idle at all. They contacted almost everyone except the first elder and the second elder, and their ambitions were clearly revealed.
For a time, an undercurrent surged inside Bishui Pavilion, waiting for the storm that was coming soon.
