Chapter 133: The leader was murdered by a traitor
These days, Chen Wan'er frequently received secret messages from Li Wen.
He then devoted himself to practicing with "The Big One on the List" to improve his own cultivation.
At present, the leader of the Blood Demon Sect is already in his twilight years, barely surviving with his last breath.
As for Chen Wan'er, her cultivation has soared to the tenth level of foundation building, and she is only one step away from the eye-catching golden elixir stage.
At this moment, Chen Wan'er was using the Third Elder as a "stepping stone" to improve her cultivation.
After all, if we miss this great opportunity, once the Third Elder shows up, we will have missed out on a hero on the list. Wouldn't that be a pity?
In the blink of an eye, the Blood Demon Sect ushered in a crucial day.
Many ordinary disciples were still confused and didn't understand what was going on, and didn't notice anything unusual at all.
On the other hand, the elders were all full of energy, as if they had been injected with chicken blood, with their eyes showing unconcealable expectation and shrewdness.
The only exception was the third elder, whose life and death were in danger due to Li Wen's scheme.
The remaining first elder, second elder, and fourth elder all arrived at the scene early.
Some were talking in low voices with serious expressions, while others were looking around with bright eyes, waiting to see how the big show would unfold.
As everyone watched with bated breath, the leader of the Blood Demon Sect was supported by someone and walked out with unsteady steps.
He looked haggard, his face was as pale as paper, and his body seemed extremely stiff.
Fortunately, he forced himself to open his cracked lips and made a sound that was weak but loud enough for everyone in the audience to hear.
"Everyone..."
The clan leader's voice was hoarse and deep, and every word seemed to be squeezed out with difficulty from between his teeth.
"My body is running out of energy and my end is near.
But our Blood Demon Sect is a well-known sect in the martial arts world, and we cannot be without a leader for a day.
So, today, I will officially pass the position of sect leader to Li Wen here.
In the days ahead, he will lead us all, continuing to navigate this treacherous world and continuing the glory of our Blood Demon Sect."
After the leader finished speaking, Li Wen slowly stepped out from behind him with an upright and dignified posture.
This appearance shocked everyone so much that their eyes almost popped out.
After just a few days of not seeing each other, the spiritual energy fluctuations around Li Wen had reached a whole new level - the Nascent Soul Stage!
The speed of improving one's cultivation level is simply like riding a rocket, which is astonishing.
As a result, everyone knew that the position of the leader of the Blood Demon Sect now belonged to Li Wen.
After all, once the sect leader passes away, who in the Blood Demon Sect can compete with Li Wen, who is in the Nascent Soul stage?
"Everyone..." Li Wen's eyes were sharp as he scanned the entire audience, his voice loud and firm.
"I, Li Wen, would like to express my sincere gratitude to the Sect Master for his kindness and trust in me, and for entrusting me with this heavy responsibility.
Here, I, Li Wen, swear that I will do my best to lead all the brothers of the Blood Demon Sect to overcome all obstacles and carve out a broader world.
Let the Blood Demon Sect's reputation shock the world!"
As soon as Li Wen finished speaking, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd.
Everyone turned around in panic and saw a black shadow rushing up like a ghost.
The Great Elder took a closer look and realized that this was the Third Elder who had been missing for many days and whose life or death was unknown.
What on earth is he trying to do by doing this?
"Master!" The third elder's eyes were bloodshot and he roared at the top of his lungs.
"You are such a heartless villain, you actually secretly use mortals' cultivation to do that.
After I accidentally caught him, not only did he not repent, he was so heartless as to poison me in an attempt to kill me!
My Third Elder was not destined to die. I finally managed to escape at the risk of my life. Today, I will perish together with a demon like you!"
After saying this, the Third Elder held the Sect Leader, who was breathing his last, tightly with his arms like an iron clamp.
Immediately afterwards, his body suddenly swelled up, and a violent spiritual power that could destroy the world erupted instantly - he actually chose to self-destruct!
With a loud "bang", a dazzling light accompanied by a surging spiritual power shock wave swept around like a tsunami.
Everyone was terrified and used their internal energy to resist.
Fortunately, Li Wen used his Nascent Soul stage cultivation to block most of the impact, and the people who were in chaos immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The Great Elder looked at the extremely tragic scene before him, and suddenly he understood.
I finally understood what Li Wen meant when he said that the Third Elder should "die heroically".
Such a resolute and tragic way of death is truly shocking and makes ghosts and gods cry.
The Third Elder was blown to pieces, not even a trace of his soul was left.
Thinking of this, the Great Elder secretly felt fortunate that he had seized the opportunity and begged for mercy quickly enough.
Moreover, in the past few days, he has been serving Li Wen wholeheartedly and making every effort to provide advice to help Li Wen ascend to the position of sect leader.
I guess Sect Master Li, who has now become a Nascent Soul cultivator, would show leniency to me for all these reasons, right?
Now, witnessing the powerful strength displayed by Li Wen, the last trace of unwillingness in the heart of the Great Elder disappeared completely.
"Everyone," Li Wen said with a serious expression, his eyes slowly sweeping over the people in the audience, his voice steady and powerful.
"What the Third Elder just said was too shocking and too shocking. We cannot just sit there and do nothing.
Next, I will immediately investigate this matter thoroughly and will not stop until I get to the bottom of it.
I will give everyone a clear and transparent explanation."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but nod secretly in their hearts.
Everyone felt that Li Wen was decisive and thoughtful, and indeed had some of the demeanor and responsibility of a sect leader.
However, doubts in everyone's hearts also surged like a tide.
How was it that the former sect leader could do such a cruel thing as using mortals to practice cultivation, and yet he was able to do it quietly and unnoticed in the sect?
Instead, it was discovered by the third elder by chance. What kind of hidden story is hidden in it?
Furthermore, the former sect leader was already dying, so why did the third elder insist on fighting to the death and dying with him in his arms?
From beginning to end, this matter was filled with an indescribable weirdness.
However, fortunately, the new sect leader has now taken office, and everyone is confident that Li Wen will handle these troublesome matters in the future.
With Li Wen's promise, the succession ceremony of the new leader continued in an orderly manner.
Just as the ceremony was about to come to an end and be completed, people from the Qianhuan Sect arrived unexpectedly.
The Qianhuan Sect and the Xuemo Sect are both level six sects, but the current leader of the Qianhuan Sect has a profound cultivation base of the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Realm.
In such a comparison, the Blood Demon Sect suddenly seemed a little pale in comparison, and everyone couldn't help but feel a little inferior.
Li Wen was not discouraged at all, but rather felt a little excited.
He was just worrying about where to expand his territory and show his talents, when the person who offered him the territory came to him.
In fact, he had long since set his sights on the wealthy territory of the Qianhuan Sect, but unfortunately the previous sect leader had never thought about it at all.
Now that he has taken the position of sect leader, he will not show any mercy if the Qianhuan Sect dares to make things difficult for him.
The next one to fight is the Qianhuan Sect!
"Hey," an elder-looking man who was leading the group of people from Qianhuan Sect shouted loudly with a faint smile on his face.
"Today's ceremony for the new leader of your Blood Demon Sect is quite lively!
If we had known this, we would have prepared a gift and come to join in the fun.
By the way, where is your former clan leader? I came to see him today, but I have something else to do."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the Blood Demon Sect looked at each other in bewilderment.
The former sect leader was just dragged by the third elder to self-destruct, and they were reduced to ashes together.
This concerns the Blood Demon Sect's internal secrets. If it is revealed rashly, it will probably cause a lot of trouble and damage the sect's reputation.
Therefore, everyone kept silent and turned their eyes to Li Wen, waiting for him to respond.
Unexpectedly, before Li Wen could even open his mouth, a young and impatient disciple in the audience could no longer hold back.
He yelled at the top of his lungs, "Our previous leader was murdered by a traitor and is dead."
