"Congratulations to Brother Lin for taking over the position of the Holy Son of Tianshui Sect!"
Huang Qingyun, the saint of the Holy Lotus Palace, held a wine glass and said to Lin Bai with a smile.
"Thank you, Miss Huang." Lin Bai thanked him with a smile and continued to walk forward.
After the elder of Danxia Sect whispered a few words in Shuimo Dan's ear, Shuimo Dan stood up stupidly and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Brother Lin for taking over the position of Holy Son!"
Lin Bai smiled and responded: "Thank you, Miss Shui."
Shui Mo Dan, Chen Yule, Yi Song, and Huang Qingyun stood up one after another to congratulate.
But Lin Bai looked around, but didn't see any traces of money.
I remembered that when they parted ways in the imperial capital before, Qian Hen said that he would go out with the caravan to do business, but he thought he was no longer in the imperial capital at this moment.
"Congratulations, Brother Lin!"
"Congratulations!"
Lin Bai walked through the ancient path among the guests, and a steady stream of congratulations came from both sides.
Even Ke Ling, the Holy Son of Heaven and Earth Sect, said congratulations without smiling.
Half of his body was chopped off by Lin Bai in Dongtian Hunting Park, but he didn't expect that he has recovered as before. It seems that Tiandimen has been putting a lot of thought into him.
Lin Bai walked along the long path, came to the stairs, and walked up step by step.
Everyone looked up and stared at Lin Bai's back, watching him step by step towards the ancestral temple at the end of the stairs.
Arriving in front of the ancestral temple, Chu Xi folded her arms and looked calm. It was obvious that she had been waiting here for a long time.
"coming."
Chu Xi said something lightly.
Lin Bai asked: "What are you doing hiding here? There are so many guests outside, why don't you show up as the head of the Tianshui Sect?"
Chu Xi curled her lips and said: "There are great elders and Li Zai'en, so there is no need for me to come forward. I will go out later."
"Besides, there are many people I don't like coming to the celebration today, and I don't want to see them."
"I really should have listened to you. If I had known better, I wouldn't have held this celebration."
While complaining, Chu Xi pushed open the door of the ancestral temple, jumped on her calves and jumped into the ancestral temple.
Lin Bai followed Chu Xi and walked in.
In the ancestral temple, there is a portrait enshrined in front of the incense table. It is a Taoist wearing a Taoist robe, holding a sword in his right hand and holding a fly whisk in his left hand.
This man has an immortal face and a certain air of immortality.
In the upper right corner of the portrait are written a few small words: Xuan Fengzi, Shen Jun, the founder of Tianshui Sect.
On the left and right sides of the portrait of the Patriarch, there are dozens of portraits hanging in sequence, representing the second generation Patriarch, the third generation Patriarch, the fourth generation Patriarch... all the way up to the seventeenth generation Patriarch.
There were countless portraits hanging on the stone walls on both sides of the ancestral temple. Lin Bai raised his eyes and took a look. Most of these portraits were of people who had contributed to the Tianshui Sect, and most of them were the former great elders and elders of the Tianshui Sect.
Lin Bai turned his gaze back to the founder and asked, "Why is the founder of our Tianshui Sect a Taoist priest?"
The few words left on the portrait clearly explained the identity of the ancestor.
Xuanfengzi should be the Taoist name of the ancestor.
Shen Jun is the taboo name of the ancestor.
Chu Xi said slowly: "In the ancient times, Taoism was once the largest sect force in the world. Whether it was the demon world or the spiritual world, many of the ancestors worshiped by ancient sects were the successors of Taoism!"
"Our ancestor was once a disciple of the "Xiantian Tao Sect" in the demon world, so he was naturally a Taoist priest."
Lin Bai frowned and asked, "Innate Dao Sect?"
Chu Xi said: "It's an extremely ancient force. You don't know it even if you tell me about it, and it's all in vain."
"Stop asking, kneel down and kowtow."
Lin Bai rolled his eyes speechlessly, bowed his hands, and said to the portrait of his ancestor: "Senior, although I am now a disciple of the Tianshui Sect, my becoming the Holy Son of the Tianshui Sect is just a deal with the Tianshui Sect.
That’s all!”
"So, I can't be completely regarded as a direct disciple of Tianshui Sect, so I won't kneel down and salute."
"Senior, please forgive me."
Lin Bai cupped his hands and bowed respectfully.
Chu Xi curled her lips and wanted to scold Lin Bai, but felt that it was inappropriate at the moment, so she held back.
Immediately, Chu Xi took out a set of purple robes from the storage bag, threw it to Lin Bai, and said: "This is the purple robe of the Holy Son of Tianshui Sect. After putting on the purple robe and walking out of the ancestral temple, the ceremony is completed."
, From now on, you are the Holy Son of Tianshui Sect."
Lin Bai nodded and put on the purple robe neatly.
Then, Lin Bai took a deep breath and said, "I'm afraid those people down the mountain won't be so easy to talk to after walking out of this door."
Chu Xi said with a solemn expression: "As long as you know, this celebration is extremely important to Tianshui Sect."
"If someone challenges you later, remember not to show off."
"If you accept the challenge, you must win."
"If you lose, I'm afraid not only you will lose face, but the entire Tianshui Sect will also lose face."
Lin Bai nodded and said: "I know, the Great Elder has given you countless instructions, and I have kept them all in mind."
"Let's go."
Lin Bai walked out of the ancestral temple, and Chu Xi closed the door of the ancestral temple.
The two of them came to the stairs together. Chu Xi and Lin Bai stood side by side. The warriors sitting in the square below the stairs all looked up.
When the Tianshui Sect disciples saw the purple robe on Lin Bai's body, they all immediately stood up and bowed respectfully: "We're going to pay homage to the sect master! We're going to pay homage to Senior Brother Shengzi!"
Even the First Elder, Second Elder and other elders from the Elder Pavilion greeted Chu Xi and Lin Bai one after another.
In the Chu Kingdom, whether within the family or the sect, the status of the Holy Son is extremely high, second only to the sect master.
Even the elders of the Elder Pavilion must show courtesy to the Holy Son.
"No gifts."
Chu Xi looked calm as he walked down the stairs and sat on the seat of the head of the Tianshui Sect.
She didn't speak a word. After sitting down, she ate and drank by herself, looking like a little girl.
Not at all like the leader of the Tianshui Sect.
Lin Bai has never met the sect leaders and patriarchs of the other five families and seven sects, but thinking about it, those sect leaders and patriarchs should not be as unmannered as Chu Xi.
All the matters of greeting the guests during the banquet were presided over by the great elder and Li Zaien.
Only then did Lin Bai see the importance of the Great Elder and Li Zai'en. Having such a sect leader who gave up on them was a hardship for the Great Elder and Li Zai'en.
After Lin Bai walked down the stairs, he came to the seat of the Holy Son of Tianshui Sect and sat down.
The warriors sitting behind Lin Bai were Qiao Mo, Qin Yao, Fang Yuanshu, Ye Guqing, Ye Guyu, Liang Lao, Meng Po, Yi Gu and others.
Originally, these seats belonged to Lin Bai's followers, but Lin Bai did not recruit followers, so Lin Bai's friends were arranged to sit here.
"Congratulations, Lin Bai!" Fang Yuanshu, Meng Po and others said to Lin Bai with smiles.
Qin Yao and Qiao Mo also smiled at Lin Bai. In such a formal occasion, Qiao Mo and Qin Yao did not dare to speak loudly.
Yi Gu held the wine glass and said to Lin Bai while drinking: "Lin Bai, you have to be careful. Look at the faces of the people from Tiandi Sect and Yuntian Sword Sect, they are very ugly."
Lin Bai looked up and saw that the banquet was in full swing, with everyone talking and laughing.
But only at the seats of Yuntian Sword Sect and Tiandi Sect, all the disciples and elders had gloomy expressions and ruthless eyes, as if Lin Bai had a grudge against them for killing his father!
"They'd better be calm today, otherwise, they will suffer a lot..." Lin Bai smiled coldly, picked up the wine glass, filled it with dragon blood wine, and drank it all in one gulp.
