Lin Xi was stunned. Only then did he realize that the questions the Great Elder had asked before were all tests for him. What he did was the last words he said - let Lin Xi take over as the leader.
Lin Xi thought about it and nodded immediately: "Okay."
"ah!"
This time, it was the elder who was surprised. He originally thought that Lin Xi would have to think about it for a long time, but he didn't expect to make a decision so quickly.
The position of the head of the Five Thunder Sect has been vacant for a long time. To a certain extent, this is one of the reasons why Meng Jun and others dared to launch a rebellion. In this extraordinary period, there is only one best way to stabilize it, and that is for Lin Xi to take over as the leader.
Lin Xi is not an indecisive person. Once she understands what she should do, she immediately makes a decision.
"Well. This is great. At least, the disciples of the sect won't run away too much."
The great elder came back to his senses.
Although the two of them have made the decision to disperse some of their disciples, it would be too bad if all the disciples left.
The re-establishment of the leader of the Five Thunder Sect is undoubtedly a calming medicine for the disciples watching below. They will not be completely disappointed with the Five Thunder Sect and think that the sect has no future and leave one after another.
"...It's just a pity for the disciples. Our Five Thunder Sect has a shallow foundation and it is not easy to cultivate. I don't know how long it will take to restore it to its current scale."
The great elder sighed, thinking about the future of the sect, he was also worried.
"No need to worry, Great Elder."
Lin Xi's eyes shone brightly. Since he decided to take over as the leader, he had naturally considered these issues:
"It doesn't take a long time to train new disciples. After this incident is over, I decided to go to the Fierce Beast Mountains to hunt ferocious beasts and obtain the ferocious beast inner elixir. For those loyal disciples, I will temper their bodies with the beast elixir.
Accelerate their martial arts progress. In addition, I am going to make some improvements to some of the training methods in the sect."
Lin Xi's martial art of training muscles, bones, and skin is far superior to other similar sects. Even the Lieyang Sect is definitely not comparable. As long as you follow Lin Xi's method, there is no need to spend such a long time.
Guoshu was Lin Xi's personal secret, and it was originally not suitable to be made public. However, the higher the level of martial arts, the more Lin Xi discovered that the role of Guoshu was getting weaker and weaker.
Especially when Meng Jun took out the Qi Refining Realm Magic Sword, Lin Xi's feeling became even stronger.
Of course, the internal boxing and the three consecutive movements of the vertebra attack are not included in the announcement. These are Lin Xi's most core things and will never be easily passed on to outsiders.
The great elder nodded, seemingly not surprised:
"You are the leader, you can decide all these things."
"In addition, Wei Buping is dead. I plan to hand over all the secular business of the sect to Han Shizhong. I don't feel comfortable leaving him on the mountain. However, it cannot be wasted. With his ability, he can take care of the Five Thunder Sect.
It should be more than enough for secular business. But we can’t chill his heart. We will consider whether to drop him back based on his future performance.”
Lin Xi said, and took out the millions of silver notes:
"This is what I got from Chi Yan Gong when he killed him. It should be enough to cover the sect's expenses for a year."
A look of surprise flashed in the Great Elder's eyes, but he still took the bank note from Lin Xi's hand.
The sect is very money-hungry. The more disciples a sect has, the more expenses it will have.
Whether it is daily expenses, medicinal materials required for practice, or all the expenses for disciples to go down the mountain to practice, they all consume a lot of money. These are all expenditures required by the sect. Moreover, the Five Thunder Sect will definitely need a lot of money to recruit new disciples.
In short, for the sect, money is never enough.
"Lin Xi, I was originally worried that you would not be able to adapt to it after taking over as the leader. Now, I am completely relieved."
The great elder said with emotion, a hint of relief and pride in his expression.
Lin Xi was silent and said after a moment:
"Great Elder, I promise you to take over the position of leader, but at the same time, I hope you can agree to one condition."
As soon as Lin Xi said this, the room suddenly became quiet.
A long sigh came to mind in the room.
"You want to save your aunt?"
The Great Elder seemed to have already anticipated what Lin Xi was going to say.
"Yes."
Lin Xi nodded, a look of determination flashed across his face:
"My aunt is my last relative, I can't lose her. No matter what, I have to go to Lieyang Sect to rescue her!"
"Lin Xi, I have no objection to you rescuing the third elder. But... with your current ability, you are no match for the leader of the Lieyang Sect, the Red Lian Sect. A strong man at the tenth level of martial arts is beyond your imagination."
The great elder's voice was very heavy.
The affairs in the sect were just trivial matters. What really worried him was the revenge from the Lieyang Sect. The death of three Longli elders, although it was a dumb loss, the Lieyang Sect would never stop there.
This time, several Longliqi elders were sent, but next time, it may be Chi Lianzong, the leader of Lieyang Sect, who takes action personally.
"Lin Xi, there is only one level difference between the ninth level of martial arts and the tenth level of martial arts. But the gap is beyond your imagination. You should already know that the higher the martial arts reaches its peak, the greater the gap at each level will be.
.This is not a matter of difference, but a matter of multiples."
The great elder’s eyes showed undisguised worry:
"I have been stagnant in the ninth level for decades, and I am only a small step away from the thunder stage of the tenth level. But don't look at this line, but it is a huge difference. And Lieyang Sect Master has already reached it more than ten years ago.
During the thunder stage, your current cultivation level is even more unfathomable. With your current ability, you are completely unqualified to challenge him!"
"My parents are not here. In the sect, it is mainly my aunt who takes care of me. I can't lose her. No matter who the opponent is, no matter how difficult the difficulties are, I can't let go! Moreover, Lieyang Sect has lost three dragons.
Elder, no matter whether I go to Lieyang Sect or not, they will not let us go."
Lin Xi's voice revealed a firm belief.
In this world, some things can be measured by value, whether they are worthy or not. And some things must be done regardless of the cost.
The great elder was silent. He felt that it was impossible for him to dissuade Lin Xi.
"What are you going to do?"
The great elder asked.
Lin Xi did not speak. He raised his head and stared into the void. His sight seemed to travel through the endless void and look into the endless distance:
"Announce the collusion between Meng Jun and the elders of the Lieyang Sect to the public and spread it throughout the sect. In addition, prepare a letter to ask the Lieyang Sect to return my aunt as soon as possible..."
A gloomy look flashed across the eyes of the Great Elder. In the sect world, the law of the jungle has never been a moral place. These measures can only be better than nothing, trying to hold back the Lieyang Sect as much as possible, but the actual effect may not be satisfactory.
However, he would not say these words to Lin Xi. He did not want to damage Lin Xi's confidence at this time.
"...In addition, if Lieyang Sect does not reply within three days, or hand over someone - send a letter of war to Lieyang Mountain for me. After half a month, I will personally go to Lieyang Mountain and bring back the third elder.
!!”
"!!!"
The great elder felt as if he had been struck by thunder. His whole body was shaken violently. He suddenly looked up at Lin Xi. His mouth opened. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
Lin Xi did not look at the Great Elder, but still looked at the void, but his expression was as clear as ever:
"Great Elder, I know what you want to say. But this is the last and only way. Before I set foot on Lieyang Mountain, the Red Lian Sect will not attack my aunt. This is the only way to save her life."
The great elder let out a long sigh in his heart, and his whole body seemed to be much older. Although he was unwilling in his heart, he had to admit that what Lin Xi said was the only feasible way.
Only in this way will the Lieyang Sect not attack Lin Ruyun.
"Half a month...is it enough?"
The great elder sighed.
Lin Xi was silent and did not speak.
…………
One day later, a letter set off from Wulei Mountain and traveled 800 miles, day and night, to Lieyang Mountain.
At the same time, the Wu Lei Sect announced to the entire sect world the collusion between the Lie Yang Sect and Meng Jun and the kidnapping of the sect elder Lin Ruyun. At the same time, the Wu Lei Sect asked the Lie Yang Sect to return the third elder Lin Ruyun.
Announcement.
This incident has aroused considerable concern in the sectarian community.
The Five Thunder Sect is just a small sect, insignificant in the sect world. But things are different when it comes to the Lieyang Sect. Especially, the final result is that the Five Thunder Sect wins. The whereabouts of the two Longli elders are unknown, and the result
it goes without saying.
The elders of the ninth level of martial arts at the dragon power stage are the backbone of any sect. The death of two at once has a huge impact.
However, the sect world is not a place of charity. What matters is not benevolence and morality, but strength. The law of the jungle is always the law of the jungle. It is impossible for any sect to stand up and uphold justice for the Five Thunder Sect.
What really set off the sectarian community was a letter of challenge three days later.
The challenger is Lin Xi, the third generation descendant of the Lin family, the successor head of the Five Thunder Sect, and the target of the challenge is the Chi Lian Sect, the leader of the Lieyang Sect.
The strong men in the tenth level of thundering stage are superior and represent the ultimate power of martial arts. In the sect world, no one has dared to challenge the strong men in the thundering stage for many years.
Especially, the target is a young junior from a small sect.
………………
boom!
A palm as white as jade, but as heavy as a mountain, slapped heavily on the table. The moment the palm fell, the entire heavy bronze hall jumped violently.
"absurd!"
A powerful and majestic voice sounded in the main hall. Above the main hall, a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties sat on a brass throne with a golden sword and a chilling murderous intention in his eyes.
This middle-aged man has dark hair, a ruddy face, and his eyes are so majestic that he seems to be able to penetrate people's souls with a single glance.
He just sat there casually, as if a ferocious beast was entrenched in the wild, exuding a tyrannical and domineering aura.
This person is the leader of Lieyang Sect, Chi Lian Sect.
