Two days later, everything in the Haoyue Sect was peaceful.

The crisis a few days ago ended quickly because of Lu Ming's sudden rise.

Lu Ming once again proved himself and gained everyone's trust.

Whether it is an elder or a disciple.

They all believed that as long as Elder Lu Ming was there, the Haoyue Sect would have nothing to worry about, even if Ji Haoyue was not there.

Lu Ming is also very awesome.

These few days, I have been working hard to make the elixir.

And it is to make elixirs for the elders.

He has all kinds of elixirs, including elixirs for improving his cultivation, explosive elixirs, and healing elixirs.

At least they are all seventh grade.

In fact, most of them are eighth-grade elixirs.

This day.

Lu Ming handed the pills to the elders. At this moment...

The elders almost cried.

So touched!

and···

I have been waiting for too long.

From the moment Lu Ming entered the sect, they had been looking forward to this day, expecting Lu Ming to refine various high-quality pills for them.

As a result, due to various reasons...

I never got to eat it.

I only eat it once or twice, but only two or three pieces, not even enough to fill the gaps between my teeth.

Although Lu Ming did not refuse to refine it on purpose, he had various reasons, which they could understand.

But... after all, there are still some regrets.

But today, Lu Ming distributed three bottles to each of the elders!

At least dozens of them.

Their hands were shaking when they got the pills!

"land···"

"Elder Lu."

The second elder blushed to the extreme and couldn't help asking, "Isn't this... too hard for you?"

"Actually, there's no need to rush. We old guys have come this far over the years, so we're not in a rush."

"Yes, Elder Lu."

The other elders also spoke up.

Although···

The elixir smells very good and everyone wants it, but we can’t treat Elder Lu like a donkey, right?

People will be tired!

We have to consider long-term development.

What will happen in the future if you make others tired?

"No problem."

Lu Ming said seriously, "I am a little tired, so it's okay. After all, improving the sect's strength is important."

"Besides, I have been feeling a little uneasy these past few days."

"Although we have thwarted the offensive of the Yanyang Palace before, I always feel that they will not give up so easily. I am afraid that they will come back again."

"Besides, if they knew our strength and dared to come back, I'm afraid..."

"We will be overwhelmed."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed immediately.

The second elder laughed dryly and said, "No... no way?"

"Elder Lu is extremely powerful. If they come again, wouldn't they just be throwing themselves at death?"

"Although I have some strength, I am only a seventh-level cultivator after all." Lu Ming sighed: "I may still have some confidence in dealing with one or two, or even three or five eighth-level peak powerhouses."

"But what if there are dozens or hundreds?!"

"Jian Twenty-Three is indeed very strong, but I can't imprison so many strong men at the same time!"

"If I really do that, they don't even need to break free. It only takes a moment and Sword 23 will be broken. Even... I will suffer a backlash and be seriously injured."

Lu Ming sighed again: "Not only that."

"Sword 23 consumes too much energy, too much energy."

"How many times can I cast it?"

"Besides, although my attack power is strong, my defense power is no different from that of an ordinary seventh-level cultivator. Strictly speaking, if you are given the opportunity, you can kill me instantly."

After a pause, Lu Ming looked helpless and continued, "Before, I didn't want to discourage the disciples, so I didn't make this public."

"But you are all the core members of my sect and my own people, so I can't hide anything from you."

"We must look at the facts objectively and not be careless in the slightest, otherwise, something terrible will happen."

"this···"

The elders changed color.

Lu Ming has already explained it to this point. If they still don’t understand, then they must have a problem with their brains.

"It is indeed a problem." The second elder looked grim.

The other elders nodded, but for a moment they didn't know what to say.

"So, we must prepare for a rainy day."

Lu Ming sighed and said, "We must take precautions before it happens!"

"Everyone must prepare these pills. Take the cultivation pills when you have the chance to cultivate and break through as soon as possible."

"As for healing and explosive pills..."

"I just hope that we won't have to use it in the short term."

"Otherwise, it proves that I was not wrong, and we..."

"The entire Haoyue Sect will be plunged into crisis and unable to extricate itself!"

"What Elder Lu said makes sense!"

The second elder stood up and was the first to express his agreement and support.

Now, he really has the attitude of Lu Ming's number one lackey. No matter what Lu Ming says, he will be the first to agree and support.

"We must not be careless, we must..."

boom!

Before he could finish his words, a violent vibration accompanied by an earth-shattering roar suddenly struck.

"Enemy attack!!!"

The exclamations of the mountain-guarding disciples, with the help of the formation, spread throughout the Haoyue Sect.

At the same time, the faces of the deacons and elders changed drastically.

"The sect protection formation is under attack!"

"The other side is very strong and has a large number of people!"

"The formation... has been slightly damaged."

"What?!"

The elders were suddenly shocked.

“Damn it!”

Lu Ming stood up suddenly, looking grim: "Is it still too late?"

"I guessed this day would come, but I didn't expect it to come so soon."

Everyone's scalp tingled and they all looked at Lu Ming.

The second elder was more respectful than anyone else and immediately said, "Master, give the order!"

"I wait, what should I do?"

"Yes, Master, give the order!"

Everyone spoke up.

Lu Ming took a deep breath and said, "Now that things have come to this, I won't refuse."

boom!

boom!

boom!

The sounds of huge earthquakes and formations continued to be heard. Lu Ming spoke very quickly and ordered, "Elders, listen to my orders!"

"Immediately activate the sect protection formation in full force. Don't worry about the consumption. Activate it as large as possible and for as long as possible!"

"Also, have an elder take charge of repairing the formation. Even if there is the slightest damage, it must be repaired!"

"Also, gather all other elders and disciples and prepare for battle!"

"But remember not to leave the formation too far, otherwise..."

"I'm afraid it's too late to rescue them!"

"Great Elder, I would like to ask you..."

"Yes, Master!"

After the order was given, everyone was very respectful and agreed, but...

When they rushed out of the conference room, saw the people who took action clearly, and saw the black mass of powerful people in the eighth realm, their scalps suddenly went numb.

“So many people!”

“Why are there so many?”

"They are people from the Yanyang Palace and the Xinghai Alliance... Damn it, why are there people from the Shadow Demon Palace?"

"Wait, there are still many... independent cultivators and demons???!"

"this???"

"No, there are more people gathering, and the number of people is increasing!"

"Damn it, damn it!!!"

Everyone's expression changed.

Shocked!

The Haoyue Sect is indeed strong, having stood for tens of thousands of years. Especially in the past ten thousand years, it has become increasingly powerful.

Now, it is only one step away from becoming a top-notch sect. As long as Ji Haoyue succeeds in breaking through this time, Haoyue Sect can be said to be a truly top-notch sect.

but···

Being strong has its limits.

The Haoyue Sect is strong, does that mean others are weak?

The Yanyang Palace, the Xinghai Alliance, and the Shadow Demon Palace, any one of them would not be much weaker than the Haoyue Sect if taken alone, and may not even be weaker than the Haoyue Sect.

If they really fight, it's hard to say who will live and who will die.

What’s more, now that the three parties have joined forces, how many independent cultivators have they brought with them?

This is···

He already has the intention to destroy our sect.

The second elder's face was twitching wildly. At the same time, he used his own secret technique to sense the surrounding situation and wanted to contact those who might be of use. However...

After a brief 'operation', his expression suddenly darkened.

"Damn it! These guys are well prepared and have set up isolation barriers and formations. Currently, the message cannot be delivered at all."

"The only way now is to rely on the formation to hold on and wait for the old master to return. Maybe there is a glimmer of hope..."

Okay.

Ji Haoyue directly became the old sect leader.

And he himself was completely unaware of it.

“The situation is very bad!”

The Great Elder said with a dark face: "A few days ago, Sect Master Ji sent me a message through the sound transmission jade talisman."

"The message is short and the content is..."

"He's been ambushed!"

"And after that, I lost contact completely."

"What?!"

Everyone turned their heads suddenly and stared at him, their scalps tingling: "Why didn't you say it earlier? Why didn't you say it earlier?!"

"I···"

The Great Elder smiled bitterly and said, "This matter is of great importance. If it is disclosed, it will easily affect the morale of the army. Moreover, I have considered that with Sect Master Lu...Lu here, our Haoyue Sect will be safe, so I did not disclose it."

"However, I am also very concerned about Sect Master Ji and have been paying attention to his fate all the time. Even until now, there is nothing wrong with his fate, so I..."

After hearing this, everyone felt a little relieved.

The second elder still stared at the first elder with suspicion on his face.

That is to say, there was no accident with the old sect leader's life letter, otherwise, he really couldn't help but suspect the "enemy" of the great elder!

Otherwise, how could they not even inform us about such a thing?

However···

That is to say, when hearing what the Great Elder said, the other elders were still somewhat worried, and they all sent out their spiritual senses to sense the current state of the Sect Master's Life Tablet.

It’s better not to watch this.

'One look'···

Click!

There was a sudden cracking sound on Master Ji's destiny tablet, and cracks appeared on it.

The entire life scroll also became dim!

"not good!!!"

"Something happened to the old master!"

The second elder's expression changed drastically.

The other elders also noticed this, and everyone's heart sank to the bottom.

Something big happened!!!

This situation clearly means that the old sect leader has been seriously injured. Although he is still alive, his condition is very bad!

"Damn it, damn it!"

The second elder was growling.

“目前我等被围困，根本联系不上。”

“而且老宗主的实力那般强横，为何早不重伤、晚不重伤，偏偏在我等被困的瞬间重伤？！”

他眼角余光看向满脸煞白的大长老。

莫非···

大长老真是敌人的水跳子？！

该死的！

竟然有这种事！！！

这可如何是好？

一时间，二长老有些乱了方寸。

皓月宗被围困，那么多第八境大能，皓月宗根本扛不住，只能依靠阵法当乌龟。

原本还想指望老宗主那边突破之后回来救援，结果现在老宗主自身难保，宗门这边也没办法去营救···

偏偏他妈的身居高位的大长老还有可能是水跳子！！！

这可怎么玩儿啊这？！

他慌乱不已。

突然，看到面色阴沉的路宗主正在沉思，唯恐路宗主把大长老当成自己人的他，连忙传音告知。

“陆宗主。”

“我怀疑···”

“大长老是敌人的水跳子！”

陆鸣：“？？？！”

这？！

陆鸣有些懵逼。

他懵逼的看了二长老一眼，以神识传音回道：“这···不太可能吧？”

“大长老在咱们皓月宗这么多年，劳苦功高，为宗门拼过命、流过血···”

“你说的这些我都知道，我比你更清楚，但谁说为宗门流过血、拼过命就不会变成水跳子了？”

“你听我给你分析。”

“太巧合了···”

二长老一通分析，说的头头是道、合情合理。

陆鸣都差点信了！

说的太有道理了！

分析的真他妈妙啊！

简直妙到极限了！

不服都不行。

他被‘吓到’了一般，道：“那···咱们可如何是好？”

“大长老在宗内这么多年，死忠众多···”

“我也正担心这一点，此刻，断不能打草惊蛇，一旦咱们内乱，那可就真是回天乏术了。”

“依我看，咱们要告知所有人大长老有可能是水跳子，您下令时，也要表面一套、背地里一套。”

“背地里那套才是真的，不能让大长老知道咱们真正的安排与部署。”

“如此，或许咱们还有‘一线生机’！”

“···”陆鸣深以为然的点头：“如今看来，也只能依二长老所言了。”

“只是，对咱们而言，目前的局面太过不利，若是再这般下去，我们恐怕···”

“没有活路啊！”

“的确太过被动了，这···这可如何是好啊。”二长老也麻了。

他比所有人都要担心！

毕竟···

他对大长老是水跳子这点，已然是深信不疑了。

从他的视角来看，真就是内忧外患，紧张空前。

“为今之计，为今之计···”

他念叨着，却只始终说不出个所以然来，不知该如何是好。

陆鸣提醒道：“先告诉其他长老，大长老有可能是水跳子？”

“这···”

“好吧。”二长老沉吟着回应：“只是，也有些不妙啊，毕竟我们不知道是否还有水跳子，以及大长老那一脉的人，是否都跟着他叛变了。”

“所以，只能暂且将整个大长老一脉都排除在外，这这这···”

好嘛！

这下，问题真的大了！

一番分析下来，己方人手越来越少，对方人手越来越多。

陆鸣郑重回应：“就依二长老你所言，此事···由你全权负责。”

“是，宗主！”

二长老立刻着手办事，告知其余长老。

但···

诸位长老得知此事后，却是一个比一个懵逼。

“水跳子？”

“谁？”

“大长老？！”

“这···怎么可能？”

此刻，他们都想骂娘。

特么的。

神经病啊！

“二长老你特娘的疯了吧你啊？”

“你说大长老是水跳子，倒不如说我们是水跳子呢！这特么不是瞎胡闹么？”

“大长老何许人也？”

“任何一个宗门、势力的大长老之位，又是何其重要？能担任大长老，就已经足以证明他的人品没问题！”

“绝无此种可能，你休要胡说八道！”

“···”

二长老却是直接舌战群儒：“我知道你们一时之间很难接受，但你听我给你们说。”

“人毕竟是会变的！”

“而且这个时间点太巧合了，天底下哪里有这么巧合的事儿？！”

“再则···”

一番分析下来，众人都沉默了。

你···你特娘的还真别说。

二长老这一通分析，还真特娘的···有道理！

至少，他们一时间都找不出话语来反驳。

最终，还是三长老觉得不太可能，皱眉道：“这只是你的猜测，根本没有证据。”

“何况，动机呢？！”

“在咱们皓月宗，大长老就是一人之下，万万人之上，以他的地位，何必当什么水跳子？”

“利益？！”

“咱们皓月宗的利益，还不够他分的么？”

“一人之下，万万人之上？！”

二长老原本还没想过‘动机’，但此刻···他却是被提醒了！

当即道：“说的好啊，动机的确是个问题。”

“可是，问题就出在你这句话上。”

“一人之下，万万人之上？以前的确是，但如今，陆宗主的实力、地位都在大长老之上啊~”

“何况，他的一位弟子，在之前，便是下一任宗主的热门人选吧？”

“他那位弟子，担任下一任宗主的概率很高！”

“我们都这般认为，而一旦成功，他便是万万人之上了，甚至不存在一人之下，宗主都要听他的！”

“可是，陆宗主最近却是异军突起，直接成为我宗当之无愧的领袖、新任宗主，他···”

“怀恨在心，因此当了水跳子，很难理解吗？”

二长老越说越觉得没毛病。

越分析，越觉得自己发现了真相！

“你们再想想，宗主前往九霄仙岳寻求突破契机之事，何等机密？！”

“只有我们这些长老知晓！”

“总不能是宗主自己透露的吧？！”

“换言之···”

“我们这些长老之中，必然有水跳子、内鬼！”

“反正都有一位长老是内鬼了，那此人，为何不能是大长老？”

“还是说你们觉着，大长老是长老，不可能是水跳子，其他长老，譬如你我，就不配为长老、都有可能是水跳子不成？”

众人：“···”

玛德！

二长老说的对啊！

反正我特么不是水跳子，别人···都有可能！

为什么不能是大长老？

何况，这一切的确太过诡异、也太过巧合了。

还真不是没有这种可能啊！

而且，二长老分析的头头是道，从动机、到时机、再到可行性以及各种佐证···

这他妈大长老的确是有问题啊这！

渐渐的···

几乎所有人都觉着大长老有问题！

哪怕嘴上不敢说，但是···

看向大长老的眼神，却都变了。

眼神格外···复杂。

而大长老一脸懵逼。

正为宗门之危与姬皓月的安危而担忧呢，却突然感觉如芒在背、如鲠在喉、如···

总之，浑身哪儿哪儿都不对劲。

好似被人用眼神捅了十万八千个窟窿。

这他妈怎么回事？

见鬼了吗？！

神识一扫，便发现，几乎所有长老都以一种莫名其妙且古怪的眼神看向自己。

大长老：“···”

“不是。”

“你们这般看着我作甚？！”

“我脸上有花吗？！”

他在懵逼中皱眉询问。

“没什么。”

“嗯，对，没什么！”

“只是突然想看看大长老你。”

“对对对，真的没什么，大长老你莫要往心里去，咱们还是同心协力，先处理眼前困境吧。”

“再拖下去···”

“咱们皓月宗，便真的危险了啊！”

众长老你一言我一语，但他们的眼神却更为古怪了，让大长老头皮发麻、浑身不自在，不止一次想要骂娘。

特么的到底什么情况啊这？！

······

“二长老真是···大好人呐。”

陆鸣暗暗腹诽。

简直就是天下间少有的大好人！

真的太好了！

这神一样的助攻，我特么不服都不行。

必须给点赞。

那么···

“我也该开始进行第三步了。”

第一步，合并丹塔，进一步提升揽月宗实力与吸引力。

第二步，皓月宗危机！

让皓月宗上下深感危机降临，每个人都惶恐不安、大惊失色、睡不着觉。

至于这第三步···

便是让危机成真，让皓月宗‘流血’且绝望，唯有如此···走投无路之下，他们才有可能投靠揽月宗。

只是···

皓月宗的大阵很麻烦。

若是不从内部破阵，外面怕是要打几天才能打进来。

几天时间太长，夜长梦多，可不好。

所以···

陆鸣一开始本来是打算派个稻草人悄然破阵来着，但这样一来，却也会增加自己暴露的风险。

但现在···

他完全不用担心了。

纵然自己派稻草人去破阵，纵然所有人都知道有水跳子，也不会有人怀疑自己。

毕竟···

水跳子是大长老，关我陆鸣陆长老，啊呸，关我陆宗主什么事儿？

我可是在宗门岌岌可危、生死危机到来之时，力排众议，以身入局率领皓月宗并入揽月宗，救揽月宗于水火的大英雄啊！

纵然背负一世骂名，但···

千年、万年之后，我终将成为人们心中的英雄！

对，就是这样！

“所以···”

“呼。”

陆鸣深吸一口气。

在长老们看来，他是在压制心头惊慌与愤怒，实则，陆鸣却是险些压制不住自己的兴奋与笑意。

毕竟···

此刻的嘴角，实在太难压了。

比特么AK还要难压许多倍！

······

揽月宗。

林凡深吸一口气，神识弥漫开来，联系诸多在宗内的弟子以及龙傲娇。

“出发，去往皓月宗附近听候命令！”

“是，师尊！”

萧灵儿等弟子虽然不解，但对于林凡的命令，他们从来不会质疑。

第一时间便直接出发。

龙傲娇却‘飘’来揽月宫，翘起嗨丝大长腿，对着林凡开始挖鼻孔。

林凡：“···”

“你现在好歹是女儿身，还这么漂亮，在人前挖鼻孔这种事，真的好吗？”

对于如何拿捏龙傲娇~~~

林凡可太有经验了。

这玩意儿，就是头顺毛驴。

一定要顺毛撸，你若是逆着撸，她能跟你拼命。

但顺着撸，将她撸爽了···

那可就好说了。

譬如此刻。

被林凡夸漂亮，龙傲娇嘴角一勾，当即将鼻屎弹飞，正襟危坐：“算你有眼光。”

“我过来呢，是要跟你说个事儿。”

“皓月宗的事儿，虽然还不知道是什么，但本姑娘可以替你摆平。”

“可事成之后，你也要为我做一件事。”

“哦？！”

龙傲娇伸长了脖子，满脸傲然。

对于她这种姿态，林凡却是半点也不奇怪。

毕竟是龙傲娇，傲气点怎么了？

她没直接来一句：“林凡你跪下，我求你个事儿”自己就已经要谢天谢地咯。

“可以！”

林凡点头：“但前提是，不能危及到我宗弟子性命！”

“好说。”龙傲娇傲然起身，道：“此事的确有危险，但若是遇上生死危机，本姑娘让他们优先逃离便是。”

“那好，我答应了！”

“算你聪明。”

白了林凡一眼，龙傲娇扭动着傲人的身躯远去，并道：“你且瞧好了，皓月宗之事，本姑娘替你解决！”

“···”

好一个风情万种。

林凡看的直皱眉。

特娘的，这家伙越来越有女人味儿了！

真特么难顶啊。

······

此番，林凡没通知小龙女。

毕竟万花圣地乃是西南域魁首，这次，指不定是要灭宗的，让小龙女参与进去，不太好解释。

不过···

林凡当即掏出传音玉符：“饶道友，皓月宗有危险，不过你别急···带人前往，听我指令便好。”

“曲宗主，哎呀呀，我是无事不登三宝殿啊，不知，能否帮个小忙？放心，不会让你们拼死拼活，只需要关键时刻站出来充充场面···”

“钱宫主，唉对对对，是我，林凡呐，不知，有没有兴趣合作一番？”

“海老，有件大事儿，大好事儿~！”

“···”

林凡全力摇人！

他得尽一切可能保证万无一失。

毕竟，此事是他一手策划，总要尽力保证不出意外才是，而炎阳神宫等三方势力此番这般给力，若是自己不努努力，只怕还真有可能会翻车。

而是若在此刻翻车，那才真的是太过可惜。

······

皓月宗内。

虽然一系列的布置已然启动，但···

众长老依旧心情沉重。

姬皓月的命简状态没有半点好转，而宗内情况也是越来越差。

阵法虽然还能撑，可谁都知道，若是没有变故，这便等同于慢性死亡。

“这···”

“可如何是好啊？”

大长老焦头烂额。

尤其是感到众人看向自己那依旧古怪的目光，更是让他莫名其妙，略一琢磨，还以为众人都想甩锅、想让自己来背这口大黑锅、出谋划策。

可是···

我特么能出个锤子的谋、划个锤子的策啊？！

当前之局，虽不至于说是死局，却也相差无几了好吧？！

也就是此刻···

陆鸣长叹一声：“再这般下去，只会越来越不妙。”

“我们，总得要做些什么才是啊。”

众长老纷纷点头。

道理谁都明白，可是···该做点什么呢？！

他们都看向陆鸣。

二长老更是直接道：“宗主，想来您心中已然有了想法，还请下令吧，我等···誓死追随！”

其余长老：“额。”

(⊙o⊙)···

好家伙。

我们这么多人呢，此刻就全都被你代表了是吧？

誓死追随什么的···

我寻思我们也‘妹’吭声啊。

不过···

此时此刻，他们也只能在心中吐槽，这些话，自然是不能说出来的，一旦说出来，那就是大逆不道，是‘政治错误’。

“我也没什么好办法。”

陆鸣长叹：“但为今之计，却是必然不能让他们这般畅通无阻、继续对着护宗大阵猛攻不停了，否则，咱们皓月宗，早晚得彻底覆灭、鸡犬不留！”

“我···”

“此刻没想到什么计策，但却也不愿坐以待毙。”

“唯有主动出击，尝试寻求那一线生机了。”

主动出击？！

众人面色微变。

双方实力差距太过悬殊，如今主动出击，岂不是找死？

二长老更是焦急道：“宗主，您方才不是说···”

“的确。”

陆鸣点头：“我方才说过，我也不可能是他们的对手，但···总不能坐以待毙、束手就擒、就此等死吧？”

他怅然若失道：“我辈修士，逆天而行。”

“与天争、与地争、与己争，求的，不外乎长生二字罢了。”

“但···人生在世，有所为，有所不为。总有些东西，比生命更加重要。”

“我即是皓月宗长老，甚至，还被诸位称上一声宗主。”

“但···”

“我却也愿为皓月宗拼命！”

“纵然要死···”

“纵然杯水车薪、什么也无法改变，但我希望，至少，我能走在皓月宗之前，而不必亲眼见证皓月宗的覆灭、鸡犬不留。”

“那太残忍、也太绝望了。”

“我接受不了。”

“若是真要如此···”

“便让我走在第一个，先行一步吧！”

陆鸣环视众人，随即，朗笑道：“若有轮回，也好让我在轮回中，先行为宗门开疆扩土！”

“何况，若是还有转机呢？”

“我能拖延一息，算一息。”

“···”

这番话一出，众人无不动容。

何等大义啊！！！

这些话语，简直是振聋发聩，让他们震撼之余，却也自行惭愧。

自己···

在皓月宗都多少岁月了？

早已数不清了，似乎，记忆中的一切，都与宗门有关，自己的一切，都因宗门而来。

可面对这等危机时，却害怕了、迟疑了。

甚至···

因为对方太强，而丧失了与之拼命的勇气。

可是，陆长老他···

“宗主！”

二长老眼泪婆娑：“时不我待、时不我待啊！”

“本以为在宗主您的带领下，我们皓月宗将会勇攀高峰、成为更为强横的势力，却不曾想，您还不曾真正继位，便遭遇如此生死危机。”

“这···”

“是我们皓月宗害了你啊！”

陆鸣大手一挥，满脸不悦：“诶~！二长老，您老人家怎能如此胡说八道？什么害不害的？”

“这是我自己的选择！”

“我愿为皓月宗拼命、愿意为宗门付出一切！”

“噗通！”

二长老闻言，更是感动，随即噗通一声跪倒在地，对陆鸣重重一拜：“宗主！！！”

“诸位！”

他拒绝了陆鸣将自己扶起的好意，看向众人，双眸通红：“我有一个提议！”

“正所谓家不可一日无主，国不可一日无君。”

“宗门，亦是不可一日没有宗主！”

“现如今，姬宗主遭遇危机，情况不明，咱们皓月宗却又遭遇如此危机，谁也不知道是否还有‘明天’。”

“在此前提下，却没有一个真正的主心骨，对整个宗门，都绝非好事！”

“因此···”

“我提议，陆鸣陆长老，就此继任宗主之位。”

“由陆长老，率领我宗···”

“背水一战！”

“无论成败、无论胜负、生死，至少，我等努力过，我等，不会后悔！！！”

众长老闻言，短暂沉默。

随后···

纷纷点头。

太上长老们也都觉得有道理。

太上大长老顾青云更是直接道：“陆长老···不，陆宗主天赋绝伦且忠肝义胆、侠骨柔情。”

“这宗主之位，非你莫属。”

“如今危机重重，万事从急！”

“一切从简。”

“陆宗主，还请你不要推辞才是，另外···还请原谅我宗目前的处境，就算担任宗主，也无法带来什么好处，反倒是代表着更大的责任。”

“甚至有可能只能担任一日、乃至半日，就会生死道消···”

“只求···”

“天佑我皓月宗吧！”

众人纷纷点头：“求天佑皓月宗。”

陆鸣却是连连摆手：“不妥、不妥！”

"The situation of Sect Master Ji is unclear. He is still alive. How can I take the position of Sect Master? Why do I need the position of Sect Master if I can contribute to the Sect?"

"Different!" Gu Qingyun sighed, "With the Sect Master here, everyone has a backbone, and the disciples will be calmer."

"and···"

"The Sect Master is fighting bloody battles, how can we retreat?!"

"Don't underestimate the fighting spirit!"

"When everyone's fighting spirit is mobilized, the chances of winning will be higher."

"I beg you, old man."

Gu Qingyun smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I and others are blackmailing you morally, but... at this moment, only you, Elder Lu, can take on this important task and convince everyone."

"this···"

The Great Elder immediately said: "The Great Grand Elder is right, Elder Lu, please don't hesitate."

"Master!" The second elder refused to stand up: "If you don't agree, I will kneel here and die."

"metropolitan!"

Other elders also petitioned.

Seeing this, Lu Ming could only sigh helplessly: "Alas."

"Forget it, forget it. I will agree to your request. However, I am afraid that this move will be unfair to Sect Master Ji."

"What are you talking about?!"

The second elder stood up instantly and said, "Master Ji is also devoted to the sect. Even if he knew, he would understand."

"If he doesn't understand..."

"We will try our best to persuade him to understand."

Rumble~!

The external offensive continues and becomes more intense.

Lu Ming nodded solemnly: "Then it's settled."

"When faced with a great crisis, we really can't be shy."

"good!"

Gu Qingyun was overjoyed: "Grand Elder, immediately announce to the entire sect that Lu Ming will succeed him as the sect leader!"

"As for the ceremony...even though everything is kept simple, the most basic elements still need to be present."

"Master, I hope you can forgive me!"

"I understand."

Lu Ming sighed softly.

Soon~

The news spread throughout the collection.

Lu Ming entered the Patriarch's Hall and succeeded to the position of the leader of Haoyue Sect!

After hearing that Lu Ming would succeed the sect leader, the disciples who were originally in a panic...suddenly calmed down.

No more panic.

There is even a hint of anticipation and excitement!

Wen Ruyan and many of the sequence and direct disciples gathered together, and everyone had a burning look on their faces: "Elder Lu... has he finally become the sect master?!"

"With the sect master's strength and talent, we can definitely turn danger into safety!"

"Except for Sect Master Lu, I won't recognize anyone else!"

“···”

The inner and outer disciples were even more excited.

“Ahhhhhh!!!”

"Sect Master Lu is invincible!"

"Sect Master Lu will definitely be able to lead us to a safe place and even kill all the enemies!"

······

"Greetings, Sect Master!"

When Lu Ming walked out of the Patriarch Hall.

All the elders, including the supreme elders, clasped their fists and saluted.

"No need to be polite, there is no time to lose!"

Lu Ming waved his hand and said, "Fight immediately!"

"Everyone... I'll go first!"

"Wait a minute!"

The second elder grabbed Lu Ming and said sternly: "The sect does not belong to the sect master alone, but to all of us!"

"How can we let the Sect Master go and die alone?"

"Brothers, sisters, uncles, let's... come together."

"Fight your way out and carve out a future!"

"Yes, let's go together!"

The elders were excited.

“Kill, kill, kill!!!”

"Everyone..."

Lu Ming was touched, and then he laughed: "Hahaha, OK, then... let's fight side by side, live and die together."

"kill!!!"

boom!

They exploded at this moment, rushing out of the sect protection formation at the same time, fighting desperately! (End of this chapter)
