Chapter 114 Lingxi Pavilion General Election, Theory of Unworthy Position
The classical European-style hall is laid out in a circular shape, with a mirror hanging on each of the eight sides.
Yan Jue, the emcee of Lingxi Pavilion, was sitting leisurely on a sofa, gently fanning himself with a folding fan and taking a sip of tea from time to time.
He had waist-length purple-black hair and was dressed like an ancient gentleman. However, his attire was not as elegant as a scholar's. Instead, it was embroidered with many colorful and gorgeous patterns. He was waving a folding fan leisurely.
However, what attracted the most attention were his narrow fox eyes and the two furry ears on his head. A sharp light flashed in his golden vertical pupils from time to time, making people feel that he was not like a scholar, but rather a fox spirit in human form.
However, as more and more fairies came, Yan Jue's originally leisurely expression gradually became a little gloomy.
Although the Lingxi Pavilion election is not a secret in the fairyland, it shouldn't be like it is now, with almost half of the fairies with some strength coming.
You have to know that there are only 7 cups of tea representing the Pavilion Master. With so many fairies coming, they will definitely make people's brains turn into dogs' brains. What's more hateful is that he can't even drive them out.
"Who leaked the news? How can I explain to the previous Pavilion Masters when the incident became so serious?" Yan Jue tightly grasped the cup in his hand. If he hadn't had a little bit of rationality left, I'm afraid the poor cup would have broken by now.
"Is this Lingxi Pavilion? It's so prosperous!" Luo Li and Xin Ling entered the hall at the same time and kept exclaiming at the surrounding decorations.
"It is indeed worthy of being a holy fairy organization that has lasted for tens of millions of years in the fairyland. It does have a solid foundation." Xin Ling also nodded in agreement.
"Hmph, what's the use of these gorgeous decorations? They will still be smashed to pieces with one punch of mine." Huangshi, who had transformed into a human form, snorted disdainfully.
He thought that his stone cave was no worse than Lingxi Pavilion, and that the gorgeous decorations could not be as durable as the simple and practical stone furniture.
Moreover, Xin Ling had never praised his stone cave, but now he was praising the gorgeous architecture here, which made him feel comparative.
"Okay, this is Lingxi Pavilion's territory after all, let's go in quickly." Xin Ling saw Huangshi's dissatisfaction, and helplessly comforted him with a few words before leading everyone to Yan Jue.
"Master of ceremonies, long time no see." Xin Ling walked up to Yan Jue gracefully and greeted him.
Yan Jue's expression also eased up. Finally, a fairy he invited came. He also smiled and replied: "Fairy Xin Ling has been radiant recently. I guess the alliance has grown stronger."
Yan Jue wanted to say something polite, but the smile on Xin Ling's face suddenly froze, and she just replied dryly, "It's going well."
It was obvious that Yan Jue's greetings went too far.
Yan Jue was indeed a smart fairy. He noticed Xin Ling's discomfort instantly, raised his hand, took a sip of tea and immediately changed the subject.
Amid the chattering of many fairies, Yan Jue used his toes to jump from the sofa into the air, and then landed lightly in the center of the hall.
"Dear candidates, the time has come and you are all busy people, so let's get started as soon as possible."
Yan Jue bowed and saluted to all the fairies present. "I am Yan Jue, the Art Fairy. I am honored to be recognized as the emcee of this session by the members of the previous Lingxi Pavilion."
"As we all know, Lingxi Pavilion has been protecting the power of Lingxi and maintaining the balance for a long time. Today is the time for the general election. I wonder who among you will be lucky enough to become the leader of Lingxi Pavilion with me and protect the power of Lingxi together?"
Yan Jue smiled modestly and rotated his palm upwards as if inviting everyone.
"There are still seven pavilion master positions waiting to be filled." Seeing that everyone was excited by his words, Yan Jue smiled with satisfaction and raised his hand to summon a few cups.
"Yeloli's magic, spiritual resonance, endless life, clear tea pours into the cup." Several streams of water suddenly appeared in the air, circling, and then fell into the floating cup.
Yan Jue clasped his fists and bowed, "Here are seven cups of tea. Let's decide in the simplest way. Only those who can drink Lingxi Pavilion tea with their own ability can become the Pavilion Master."
"Whoever can accept these seven cups of tea will be the head of Lingxi Pavilion, regardless of his background. I will serve the tea now." Seeing that all the fairies present could not wait any longer, Yan Jue waved his hand and was about to serve the tea without delay.
At this moment, a clear female voice came from mid-air.
"Since the Master of Ceremonies said that anyone who receives these seven cups of tea can become the head of Lingxi Pavilion regardless of their background, I wonder if we can do the same?"
Mandola, wearing a golden and red cheongsam, jumped down from the air together with Duan Lingyi, who was carrying a heavy hammer on her shoulder, but there was no sound at all.
Instead, Jin Litong and Huo Liaoye, who were following closely behind the two of them, smashed several cracks in the floor of the Lingxi Pavilion's main hall.
"The Prime Minister of the Empire, and the Chief Forger... Why are they here?" Yan Jue frowned and looked at the two fairies in front of him. As for Jin Huo and the others behind them, he completely ignored them.
After all, although Jinhuo and the other two are also famous fairies in the fairyland, from their positions it is obvious that they focus on the two female fairies in front. As long as they can deal with the prime minister and the chief blacksmith of the empire, the other two are nothing to be afraid of.
Yan Jue opened his folding fan with a "whoosh" sound, slowly covering the lower half of his face, his fox eyes slightly narrowed.
"The responsibility of the leader of Lingxi Pavilion is to maintain balance and protect the fairyland. This does not seem to be in line with the empire's proposition... The two of you are not worthy of the position, so you should retreat."
He had his reasons for choosing the Alliance instead of the Empire. Lingxi Pavilion existed to protect the balance, but the emergence of the Empire broke this balance first, thus setting off a huge wave in the fairyland.
Because of the confrontation between the two sides, countless innocent fairies lost their lives. In Yan Jue's opinion, if the empire had not started the dispute first, the fairyland would still be that beautiful fairyland.
Besides, he was also good friends with Xin Ling and knew that Fairy Xin Ling was a kind, generous and responsible fairy. Any organization that could oppose such a fairy must not be a good one.
Therefore, Yan Jue naturally had a prejudice against the empire.
If the Imperial Fairy were to obtain the position of the Master of Lingxi Pavilion and increase her strength, it would inevitably cause greater damage to the Fairyland.
After hearing Yan Jue's words, Mandola and Duan Lingyi looked at each other and sneered at the same time. They were laughing at Yan Jue's stupidity and double standards.
Yes, after all, as an elegant fairy who only knows how to drink tea and recite poetry in Mozhuxuan, and sing poems and rhymes, how could he notice the misery of the lower-class fairies?
"Since Master MC himself said that anyone can be the head of Lingxi Pavilion regardless of their background, how can you say that the two of us are unworthy of the position?"
"When it comes to protecting the fairyland, how many fairies have been killed in the hands of the alliance? Your Excellency the Master of Ceremonies has such a clear double standard. Do you think that others are blind? Such behavior is no different from that of a hypocrite who says one thing and does another. It is really unbecoming."
Mandola walked over gracefully, her slim cheongsam perfectly outlining her slender waist, making her look like an elegant lady in a painting, but contrary to her elegance, her eyes were full of mockery.
