Ye Qiu was speechless as he watched over a hundred people kneeling on the ground.
Is this what they call forcing someone into a situation they're not prepared for?
He didn't want to be a duck being herded!
"Gentlemen, I truly do not want to..."
"Junior brother," Qiu Chan glared at Ye Qiu, then said in a serious, low voice, "This is also Master's intention."
"What does 'Master' mean?"
Ye Qiu was confused.
"I'll explain in detail later. Just agree to it for now. Anyway, it's not just about giving you status and making you look cool; there's another big plan."
Qiu Chan said.
"Oh well."
Ye Qiu had no choice but to agree.
If he doesn't agree now that things have come to this point, it will be difficult to end the situation.
At that moment, Ye Qiu said solemnly, "Please rise, everyone. Since you all think so highly of me, Ye Qiu, I will give it a try. But let me make it clear that if you ever feel that I have not done well, or if there is a more suitable candidate, I will step down immediately."
As soon as Ye Qiu finished speaking, a cheer erupted from the crowd.
It was easy to see from the atmosphere that everyone was extremely happy that Ye Qiu had become the supreme martial artist, and no one was dissatisfied.
"Senior Sister, what exactly does this Martial Arts Supreme do? Is he the leader of the martial arts alliance?"
Ye Qiu asked curiously.
"The Martial Arts Alliance Leader is a bit higher than the Martial Arts Supreme. The Martial Arts Alliance Leader is only below the Martial Arts Supreme. In other words, if you manage the Martial Arts Alliance Leader well, it is equivalent to managing the martial arts world of Great Xia."
Qiu Chan smiled.
"Who is the leader of the martial arts alliance?" Ye Qiu asked.
"It's right in front of you."
Qiu Chan looked at Ye Qiu.
"you?"
"Doesn't it look like it?" Qiu Chan stared at Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu suddenly became happy.
With his senior sister around, he wouldn't have to worry about many things.
Therefore, the title of Martial Arts Supreme is mostly just a nominal one. He doesn't have to do anything; he's like a mascot, possessing a certain degree of intimidation.
Are you happy now?
Qiu Chan, who knows Ye Qiu very well, wanted to pinch Ye Qiu's ear.
But when she raised her hand and realized that many eyes were staring at her, her action of pulling her ear turned into gently tidying Ye Qiu's hair.
...
An hour later, the party ended.
The martial arts masters from all sides left one after another, and the Dragon Palace finally quieted down.
Ye Qiu, Qin Yue, Qiu Chan, and Murong Qingcheng, who was called over by Qiu Chan, sat together, chatting and laughing.
"Sigh, speaking of which, it's been so long since we sat down and talked like this. I really miss the days in the mountains."
Qin Yue sighed.
"Yes, I wonder if Master gets bored all alone on the mountain," Murong Qingcheng said.
"Don't worry about him. He and Widow Wang are having a great time, partying every night."
Ye Qiu smiled.
"Junior brother, don't talk nonsense."
"That's right, junior brother, don't go looking for a beating."
"Watch out or we'll beat you up. Be respectful to your master."
Qin Yue, Qiu Chan, and Murong Qingcheng all stared at Ye Qiu with unfriendly eyes.
"Alright, alright, I won't talk about him. Senior Sister, what did you mean by what you said at the gathering before? Is there some grand plan behind making me the Martial Arts Supreme?"
"Regarding this matter, after I tell you tonight, you must all keep it strictly confidential and not reveal it." Qiu Chan's expression became serious, more serious than ever before.
This made Ye Qiu and the others realize that something big must be about to happen.
"Senior Sister, speak."
Ye Qiu was somewhat impatient.
"The girl behind you, she won't be talking nonsense, will she?"
Qiu Chan asked abruptly.
"Senior Sister, where is the maid behind him?"
Murong Qingcheng was taken aback.
“That’s right, there’s nothing behind him,” Qin Yue added.
"Yeah?"
Qiu Chan stared at Ye Qiu with a half-smile: "I didn't expect that your third and fifth senior sisters didn't know you were hiding a girl behind your back."
"this..."
Ye Qiu said, "Her name is Ying'er. She's a very good girl and won't talk nonsense. Don't worry, Senior Sister."
Immediately afterwards, Ye Qiu said, "Ying'er, come out."
Ying'er withdrew her invisibility spell and became somewhat timid.
Because the people present could all be considered Ye Qiu's 'family'.
So Ying'er felt like she was meeting her boyfriend's family.
"Greetings, eldest sister, third sister, and fifth sister."
Ying'er bowed to each of them, looking very nervous.
Qiu Chan looked Ying'er over carefully and smiled, "Not bad, girl. Sit down."
"Thank you, big sister, I'll be fine standing."
Ying'er said.
"It's alright, sit down, don't be shy, listen along."
Qiu Chan pulled Ying'er down to sit.
Then, Qiu Chan got to the point: "Choosing a martial arts supreme to rule the martial arts world of Great Xia is not actually because we are afraid that the martial arts world of Great Xia will be in chaos, but to resist the great terror that is about to come. It can't be called a great terror, because terror and opportunity coexist."
"What do you mean?" Qin Yue was completely confused. "Senior Sister, I'm totally confused by what you're saying."
"Simply put, the spiritual energy of the earth is gradually recovering, and many ancient families that have been hiding in the world are emerging one after another, making many preparations to welcome the full arrival of the spiritual energy recovery."
"Ye Qiu, putting aside your third senior sister and the others, just look at yourself. Haven't you noticed that the spiritual energy in the world has been denser than usual lately?"
Qiu Chan turned to look at Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu shook his head: "I haven't been a cultivator for very long, so I haven't paid attention to this issue."
"It's alright. You'll gradually find that the spiritual energy is becoming more and more abundant. At the same time, the world will undergo many changes. According to Master's prediction, it will completely erupt in about three months. The eruption period is also the dark period. At that time, everything will undergo tremendous changes, and there will be many great terrors."
Furthermore, we suspect that more demons will awaken, at which point the human race will be weakened and suffer heavy casualties. Therefore, we are preparing in advance so that we can not only protect ourselves but also help others survive.
Qiu Chan explained the relationship between them.
Ye Qiu and the others fell silent; no one spoke.
This news was like a myth to them.
Will Earth's spiritual energy truly revive?
Qiu Chan sighed and said, "You'll find out soon enough. In any case, be prepared. Those ancient families will be coming out of seclusion. They will definitely make many big moves in these three months. The Dragon Palace will be the first to be affected. So your master is making preparations for you in advance. When your influence as a martial arts supreme is at its peak, he will help you quell many unnecessary troubles."
"Understood."
Ye Qiu took a deep breath.
Regardless of whether spiritual energy will revive, the fact that many ancient families are entering the world means that this alone must be handled with utmost care.
"Senior Sister, are those ancient families very powerful?"
Murong Qingcheng asked curiously.
“Extremely powerful.” Qiu Chan said, “There are plenty of Grandmasters, Martial Emperors, and ancient families, and there must be even more top experts at an even higher level.”
