After Li Mu signed up to run for election, no other unexpected events occurred in the election, and the election officially entered the next stage: candidate campaign. Logically, this process should be extremely long, because each candidate needs to go to the various branch halls of Lingxiao Palace to canvass for votes, and explain his or her governance proposals for Lingxiao Palace in various forms in order to win the trust of the palace members and win votes.
However, the candidates of the six major forces have already implemented this process for more than a hundred years. Naturally, they are not happy with other candidates taking away their votes through this method. In addition, the Changfeng Domain is too large, and it is unknown how many years it will take to complete this process. Therefore, they simplified this complicated process through various means. Anyway, the scene is also broadcast live, and people from all branches of Lingxiao Hall can see everything on the scene. So they just let everyone give a speech on the spot. They have already gone through the process before, and now it’s just a formality.
The first person to give a speech was naturally the always strong Ji Haoxuan. He raised his proud head and looked down at everyone: "As you know, my last name is Ji, Ji Haoxuan. The ancestor of our Ji family also has the last name Ji, with a single character "Hao" in his given name..."
Ji Haoxuan talked about the Ji family every other sentence, and never forgot to use his status to warn others, and his words were full of threats and inducements.
Jiang Yuer was next: "My fellow Taoists, I am very happy to meet you all, and I am honored to join the Lingxiao Palace. Regardless of the outcome of the election, I would like to thank you all in advance..."
Jiang Yuer's speech was weak but with a hint of tenacity, helpless but with optimism, which caused many cultivators to feel pity for her. Jiang Yuer's experience resonated deeply with them. Injustice was everywhere in this world. Even Jiang Yuer, a proud daughter of one of the six major forces, could not control her own destiny. What about them, the low-level cultivators?
The philosophy of Lingxiao Palace is that everyone is equal. Could they bear to sit back and watch what happened to Jiang Yuer?
Seeing that the mood of the hall members was a little wrong, Ji Haoxuan snorted coldly: "Pay attention, this is the election of Lingxiao Hall, not your Jiang Yuer's performance stage. The marriage between you and me was a decision made by my Ji family's ancestors and your Jiang family's ancestors. Who dares to question it? Lingxiao Hall advocates fairness and justice, but don't forget that the foundation of Lingxiao Hall is 'Love Qiongzu and embrace the six major forces'. Besides, what is your status in your Jiang family, Jiang Yuer? What is my status in the Ji family? Even in terms of cultivation, I am higher than you. You marrying me is considered marrying up. What are you willing to do? Don't be so naive! Who are you pretending to be so pitiful? Do you really think that our brothers and sisters in Lingxiao Hall are easy to fool?"
"You... I didn't, I'm not!" Jiang Yu'er was suddenly confused by Ji Haoxuan's words. She had never thought that the always domineering Ji Haoxuan would say such words, especially the sentence "our brothers and sisters in Lingxiao Palace". Is this something Ji Haoxuan could say?
For a moment, Jiang Yuer didn't know how to refute anything. After all, at this time, the more she explained, the more people would question her motives. She could only pretend to be a frightened little rabbit and show her identity as a victim vividly.
However, even so, many people's attitude towards Jiang Yuer has changed in their hearts. The cultivators who can go to the Qiongzu Universe are all people with their own small universes. Which one is not a smart person? In their opinion, Jiang Yuer's motives are indeed impure, which makes them feel like they are being fooled.
However, there are still some people who are not affected by Ji Haoxuan's speech. No matter what, Jiang Yuer has indeed been treated unfairly, and Jiang Yuer is the goddess in their hearts. They will naturally go all out to support the goddess in trouble. It doesn't matter who they vote for. Anyway, it's an anonymous vote, and voting for Jiang Yuer will not lose anything to them.
Jiang Yuer did not refute, and Ji Haoxuan did not pursue her further, and the speech continued.
At this time, it was Yao Xiuqi who came on stage. He spoke with a warm face: "My fellow hall friends, I am Yao Xiuqi, and my philosophy is..."
Yao Xiuqi's speech was in keeping with his usual low-key and humble style. Although he was the pride of the Yao family, he did not put on airs at all. His attitude made all the hall members feel very comfortable.
"Haha, brothers and sisters, I, Pang Liang, am a rough man and I can't say those nice words, but I can promise you here, as long as I choose the Palace Master..."
The speech of Pang Liang from the Juling Sect was full of the flavor of the martial arts world, and his straightforward personality also won the favor of a large number of palace members. Just imagine that such a person of noble birth and down-to-earth was elected as the master of the Lingxiao Palace. Presumably, the atmosphere in the Lingxiao Palace would be extremely relaxed in the future, right?
Next, it was the turn of Sun Ruxuan from Yuansheng Palace. Her stunning beauty immediately captured the hearts of many male and female palace members. She was silent for a long time after stepping onto the podium. After a long while, she said with a look of self-blame: "I'm sorry, everyone. I regret to tell you that after the election, I may quit Lingxiao Palace. I can't accompany you to the end. I'm sorry for everyone!"
"Wow~" The monks were immediately shocked when they heard this.
"Why? Sister Ruxuan, why do you want to leave us? Is there any hidden story?" someone asked.
Sun Ruxuan shook her head and forced a smile, saying, "It's nothing, don't worry about me. I left Lingxiao Palace only for personal reasons. I can't blame anyone."
"I don't believe it, Sister Ruxuan, you are not that kind of person! What is our Lingxiao Palace? It is our second home. Joining Lingxiao Palace means you are a family. If you have suffered any grievances, just speak up. We now have more than 20 trillion family members in Lingxiao Palace. No matter how big the difficulties are, divided by 2 billion, it is not a problem!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Ruxuan showed a trace of struggle on her face and "inadvertently" glanced at Ji Haoxuan.
Ji Haoxuan suddenly felt something was wrong. Sure enough, all the hall members present at the scene and those in other branch halls watching the live broadcast followed Sun Ruxuan's gaze and looked at Ji Haoxuan.
Ji Haoxuan didn't want to be passive, so he shouted angrily: "Sun Ruxuan, you bitch, stop spitting bloody words at me!"
