Chapter 287: Future Sovereign
"Ancestor!" Lu Guangbai was shocked.
He knew that his ancestor's life was over.
"Disciple Lu Guangbai respectfully sends off the ancestor!"
"Disciple Jiang Hanshui respectfully sends off the old ancestor!"
"The disciples of the Danxian Sect respectfully send off the ancestor!"
Zhao Yan pursed his lips and looked at the dead Mu He in disbelief.
He should be happy that Master has been avenged, but now he can't be happy. Will Master blame him?
His appearance indirectly killed the person that Master loved the most.
The news of the death of Mu He, the ancestor of the Danxian Sect, quickly spread throughout the entire Central Continent.
Everything that happened here spread to every corner in an instant.
No one expected things to develop to this point, and they could not have imagined that the relationship between Dan Feng and Mu He was so complicated.
However, even if Mu He died, the major sects did not dare to easily attack the Danxian Sect at this time.
After all, the Danxian Sect is in a sad mood right now. If we bump into them at this time, we might become a tool for Lu Guangbai and the Danxian Sect to vent their anger.
What's more, behind the Danxian Sect is the Danxia Sect.
The young man who claimed to be Dan Feng's disciple was appointed as the next leader of Danxian Sect by Mu He before his death. He has powerful people protecting him, so they dare not bring bad luck to him at this time.
Everyone in Danxian Sect was displeased with Zhao Yan, because his appearance caused Danxian Sect to lose the protection of the Mahayana ancestor. And because he was the next sect leader appointed by the ancestor, Danxian Sect could not just ignore him. After settling Mu He's affairs after his death, Lu Guangbai found Zhao Yan.
"What did you say?" Zhao Yan jumped up and looked at him in disbelief.
Lu Guangbai said slowly: "Since the ancestor has appointed you as the next leader of Danxian Sect, naturally no one in our Danxian Sect will object. It just so happens that I haven't practiced in seclusion for a long time, so I will hand over Danxian Sect to you in the future."
"Are you sure that your Danxian Sect is willing to recognize me as the sect leader?" Zhao Yan raised his eyebrows.
The people from the Danxian Sect probably hate him to death.
After all, it was because of him that Mu He gave up his cultivation and died together with Mu Yuan. How could they possibly acknowledge him?
"This is the order of our ancestor. We in the Danxian Sect have no objection." Lu Guangbai said, although he really didn't like him.
"You are the disciple of the old ancestor Dan Feng, and it is legitimate for you to inherit the position of the leader of the Danxian Sect."
In addition to this reason, he also wanted to use the protectors around him to intimidate those villains who were eyeing the Danxian Sect.
The ancestor was always thinking about the Danxian Sect until his death, so how could they possibly let him down?
"No, my cultivation is so weak that I can't bear the responsibility of being the leader of the Danxian Sect." Zhao Yan refused directly.
He still has some self-awareness.
With his current cultivation level, it is not enough to shock the Danxian Sect.
What's more, he didn't want to be detained in the Danxian Sect. He had just been out for a few years and wanted to travel around.
Lu Guangbai didn't think so. He said, "The sect master is already a Nascent Soul cultivator when he's less than 30 years old. There are only a few people with such talent in the entire cultivation world.
I and everyone in Danxian Sect believe in the Sect Master. If the Sect Master becomes the Sect Master of Danxian Sect, he will definitely lead the Sect to a higher level."
"Okay, stop flattering me. With my level of cultivation, it's not good enough in the entire Central Continent. I can't do it, and I don't want to!" Zhao Yan refused without thinking. He really didn't want to.
"You can't say that. You are still young and you will definitely not stand still. Moreover, even for the sake of the old ancestor Dan Feng, you should inherit the Danxian Sect. After all, you are his only successor."
Zhao Yan, who still wanted to refuse, hesitated after hearing this.
If it were anything else, he might not be shaken.
But when it comes to his master, he has to give it some more thought.
The inheritance of the Danquan is in my hands. If I refuse, I will feel guilty.
Seeing this, Lu Guangbai knew there was a chance, so he said a lot and finally moved Zhao Yan.
"I can take over the position of the leader of the Danxian Sect, but not now." Zhao Yanju raised his hand, motioning Lu Guangbai to listen to him.
"Sect Master Lu is very good at managing the Danxian Sect. We still need him to manage the Danxian Sect for a short period of time. After I break through to the Out-of-Body state, I will take over the position of Sect Master. What do you think, Sect Master Lu?"
Lu Guangbai's mouth twitched, and he wanted to persuade him.
No, to break through to the out-of-body state, doesn’t that mean you have to practice to the point of integration?
Even for a peerless genius, it would take one or two hundred years to cultivate to the point of fusion. Isn't this a bit too long?
You must know that after a cultivator breaks through the Nascent Soul stage, each small breakthrough becomes extremely difficult, and it becomes increasingly difficult to advance as time goes by.
It should be noted that it may take decades or even hundreds of years to break through from the initial stage to the middle stage.
Although this may not happen to the future sect leader, he is still a little worried.
"Master, how about we compromise and set the limit to fifty years?" Lu Guangbai said.
"Master Lu, what you know is impossible." Zhao Yan frowned.
To expect him to achieve a breakthrough in fifty years is simply a fantasy.
Even Qi Xianzun, the most outstanding genius in the world of cultivation, could not achieve a breakthrough within fifty years, let alone him.
"Master, you misunderstood." Lu Guangbai added: "What I mean is that in fifty years, no matter how good your cultivation is, you have to return to Danxian Sect to inherit the position of master. What do you think?"
Zhao Yan touched his chin, thought for a while, and raised a finger.
"One hundred years."
Without waiting for him to refute, Zhao Yan continued, "A hundred years is just a blink of an eye for a cultivator. It can't be any shorter."
"If you don't agree, then the matter of taking over the Danxian Sect will be cancelled!"
Lu Guangbai: “…”
"Moreover, during this hundred years, I will let Uncle Wan stay in Danxian Sect and take charge. The things you are worried about will not happen."
Lu Guangbai didn't feel embarrassed. As the leader of the Danxian Sect, he must consider the future of the Danxian Sect.
Since the future sect leader said so, he felt relieved.
After the two men reached an agreement, Lu Guangbai ordered people to announce it to the entire Danxian Sect and the cultivation world, which also made those large sects that were originally ready to make a move to restrain their thoughts.
After the matter was over, Zhao Yan did not leave Danxian Sect immediately, but under the guidance of Lu Guangbai, he got to know Danxian Sect well.
The more he learned, the more he felt that the Danxian Sect had a strong foundation. Even without Uncle Wan's deterrence, the Danxian Sect would be fine. However, the Danxian Sect had always been cautious, so he didn't say much.
"Sect Master Lu, you don't have to follow me. I'll go around Danxian Sect by myself. I'll come to you if there's anything."
"Okay, then you go around by yourself. If you need any help, just tell the disciples directly." Lu Guangbai nodded. He did have a lot of things to deal with.
Zhao Yan is Dan Feng's disciple. Whether in Danxian Sect or Danxia Sect, this seniority is enough to scare people to death.
After Xinyi passed the news back to Danxia Sect, Danxia Sect immediately sent disciples to deliver gifts, including Dan Chen's descendants.
