Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the figure hidden in the mist also slowly spoke:
"Elders, deacons, and many disciples of our Blood River Sect, I have gathered you today to announce a major event for our Blood River Sect."
"I have been the sect leader for decades. Although I have been careful to protect the foundation of the sect, time has passed, the stars have rotated, and the waves behind have pushed the waves ahead. In addition, according to the rules of our sect, it is time to choose a new leader to lead the sect to new glory."
As these words were spoken, there was an instant uproar in the square, and many disciples in the sect were speculating which elder would succeed the position of sect leader. After all, in the Blood River Sect, only the elders of the sect could take on such an important position.
In the square, many tribesmen also looked curious.
Although the family has a great influence on the Xuehe Sect and there are many clansmen in the sect, they have never heard of the news about the sect leader's abdication. It is unknown whether such an important event will cause new changes in the martial arts world.
But facing such a grand scene, the tribesmen had no strategy and could only watch quietly. After all, this martial immortal world was different from the outside world, and all the rules seemed to have been determined in advance.
After everyone discussed for a while, the leader of the Blood River Sect continued:
"As the leader of our sect, you should have three virtues and five responsibilities. Your virtue should be like a jade, your knowledge should be like the sea, and your courage should be like gold and stone. You should also inherit the sect's Dharma lineage, gather the hearts of the disciples, protect the sect's safety, and open up a new situation for the sect. Who do you think can take on the position of the leader?"
At the sect master's question, the sect square, which was originally a little noisy, suddenly became quiet. The eyes of many elders, deacons, and sect disciples also became empty in an instant. Time seemed to have come to a standstill at this moment.
This unusual situation also made many family members dare not act rashly. After all, this was the first time such a thing happened. If it was not handled properly, perhaps everyone's identity would be exposed, and they would be expelled from the Wuxian Realm, causing their own identities to disappear.
But just when the tribesmen didn't know what to do.
Chen Changsheng in the crowd suddenly raised his hands and shouted:
"Of course it's Senior Brother Wu Ling!"
After these words were spoken, the clan members cast surprised looks at Chen Changsheng one after another.
But the next moment, many tribesmen's eyes lit up and they all spoke up:
"Yes, the position of the sect leader can only be taken by Senior Brother Wu Ling!"
"Brother Wu Ling!"
Amid the clan members' shouts, the originally silent sect square seemed to come alive again, and the eyes of many disciples and deacons gradually showed thoughts and emotions.
After hearing the words "Senior Brother Wu Ling", many disciples from the sect joined in.
As more and more disciples of the sect shouted, in the entire sect, only the four words "Senior Brother Wu Ling" resounded over the square.
On the high platform, several elders who had come back to life were whispering to each other.
"Wu Ling is a sect genius. He has already reached the state of concentration at a young age. He is indeed qualified to be the sect leader."
"Wu Ling is willing to help others, and his prestige in the sect is enough."
"However, as the sect's sword bearer, if Wu Ling becomes the sect master again, wouldn't that be inappropriate? This has never happened in my Blood River Sect before."
"That's wrong. Wu Ling is popular among the people. Even if he is in the second place, what's wrong with that? Our Xuehe Sect is not a sect that sticks to the rules. We should innovate."
"That makes sense."
After some discussion, all the elders nodded and said no more, and no one objected.
In the center of the square, seeing that everyone from the elders to the disciples of the sect had approved, the leader of the Blood River Sect also announced at this moment:
"The sect's sword bearer Wu Ling has the best timing, the best location, and the best people. Today, I will announce that the position of the sect leader is Wu Ling. I hope all the disciples in the sect will know about this."
Hearing the words next to his ear, Chen Qingyu, who was originally standing beside the platform, had a hint of doubt in his eyes. He did not expect that the throne would be passed on so quickly.
However, the current scene is exactly what the family wants.
In this martial arts world, many things require the consent of the sect master, but once you become the sect master, it will be extremely convenient to do things, and the family will gain more benefits from the Xuehe Sect.
Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, Chen Qingyu quickly stepped forward and took the palm seal that only the leader of the Blood River Sect could hold with both hands.
At this point, the position of the sect leader has changed hands.
At this moment, many elders and countless sect disciples below bowed in greeting:
"Greetings, Sect Master!"
Under the shouts of many disciples, the old sect master beside him also said slowly:
"Wu Ling, the position of the sect leader is not just an honor, but a heavy burden, and it is also the beginning of a myriad of difficulties. I hope you can shoulder this great responsibility."
"After the succession ceremony is over, come to the sect hall and I will answer some of your questions."
At this moment, Chen Qingyu discovered that the face of the Blood River Sect's leader was no longer blurry, but became clear. He was a middle-aged man with a kind face. His temples were slightly gray, but his majestic appearance was still as strong as ever.
"Yes, Master."
"A sect cannot have two masters. Now that you are the sect master, you can call me elder."
As soon as he finished speaking, the figure of the Blood River Sect's leader disappeared into the distance, leaving behind only the many excited disciples in the sect's square.
Afterwards, several elders came on stage and completed the ceremony of the sect leader's succession.
After the ceremony, Chen Qingyu's figure quickly disappeared from the sect square.
…
"Don't underestimate the position of the sect leader. There are many things to do on weekdays. These not only involve the affairs of the various peaks of my Blood River Sect, but also the exchanges with other sects. While I am not in seclusion yet, if you have any questions, feel free to ask them. I will answer them for you."
In the sect's main hall, the Blood River Sect's leader, who was packing up bamboo slips, said with a smile.
In front of him, Chen Qingyu, transformed into Wu Ling, was listening attentively.
The reason why he came so quickly was that he had some questions that he wanted the sect leader to answer.
But this question is not about how to run the sect well.
After all, the martial arts world is always just an illusion. Even if you become the sect master, it is difficult to develop and expand the sect.
His question is the question that all the warriors in the Concentration Realm in Southern Xinjiang are wondering about.
Under the gaze of the Blood River Sect's leader, Chen Qingyu slowly spoke:
"Excuse me, Master, I want to ask..."
"How can I break through the realm of martial immortals!"
When Chen Qingyu finished speaking, the Blood River Sect leader in front of him suddenly stopped moving his hands, and his originally lively eyes instantly became empty. Even the formation clock hand in the hall, which was originally swaying, now stopped moving.
Time seemed to have come to a standstill.
This made Chen Qingyu sigh inwardly. This seemed to happen whenever the Wuxian Realm was in trouble.
It seems that even the leader of the Blood River Sect does not know the biggest secret hidden in the Martial Immortal Realm.
