"By the way, Xiao Ran, how is the matter between you and Saint Qin going?"

The clan leader was the most impolite and asked this question first.

When the other elders of the sect heard the sect leader ask this question, they couldn't help but prick up their ears to hear how Lu Xiaoran would answer.

Fortunately, Lu Xiaoran had already thought of an excuse.

I saw him looking up at a 45-degree angle, with a look of slight sadness on his face, and he sighed deeply.

"Why!"

Everyone's heart skipped a beat.

"Xiao Ran, is there something wrong between you and Saint Qin?"

"This is a long story."

Lu Xiaoran glanced at everyone, his eyes full of melancholy.

"You don't know, Qin and I."

Lu Xiaoran fell silent, but his mind was thinking rapidly, what was the woman's name?

Damn it, for the past month, I have been focusing all my energy on hunting Xiao Bei, and as a result, I even forgot the name of that Qin from Xuanwu Zhenzong.

All the elders stared at him.

"What happened between you and Saint Qin?"

Lu Xiaoran's face couldn't help but twitch violently, and then he said affectionately:

"She and I are in love with each other and have a lot in common. We wish we could stay together forever."

"good!"

Elder Tie clenched his fists and shouted "OK" excitedly.

The Great Elder glanced at him unhappily.

"Are you crazy?"

Elder Tie was a little embarrassed.

"I'm happy for Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran, please continue."

Xiao Ran nodded.

"Originally, the two of us had already discussed that we would become a dual cultivation partner and jointly help develop our Heavenly Demon Sect. Unfortunately, her master, the Xuanwu Sect Master, thought that my cultivation was too low and that I came from the Heavenly Demon Sect, so I was not worthy of her."

Hearing this, the enthusiasm in everyone's heart was suddenly cooled as if a bucket of cold water was poured over it.

One elder couldn't help but punch the ground.

"What's so great about that? You look down on others. What's wrong with the Heavenly Demon Sect? What's wrong with low cultivation? Are you unworthy of marrying a wife?"

Another elder immediately echoed:

"That's right, our Elder Xiao Ran is a man of outstanding talent, suave and charming, handsome and graceful, stunningly beautiful and charming."

Elder Tie patted him on the shoulder.

"Hey, stop it, you used the wrong word. The ones after that are used to describe women."

The elder scratched his head.

"Anyway, our Elder Xiao Ran is handsome, but he still looks down on our Elder Xiao Ran. He is really blind."

The great elder sighed leisurely.

"There is nothing we can do about it. After all, the Xuanwu Sect is a wealthy and powerful sect. Our Tianmo Sect is only a few tenths of their status and position. It is normal for them to look down on us. In the world, there are so many willing couples that, in the end, were defeated by the matchmaking of parents."

When everyone heard this, it felt as if the words touched their hearts. They couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in their chests.

"The Great Elder is able to have such insights, could it be you?"

The Great Elder raised his head at a forty-five degree angle, a look of painful nostalgia flashing in his eyes.

"It was an autumn more than 300 years ago. I was tilling the land at the head of our village, and she brought food to her father. We were both village grass and village beauty, and we fell in love at first sight. Unfortunately, our family was poor, and her father eventually married her to the son of the village chief. So, out of sadness, I came to the Heavenly Demon Sect and devoted myself to practicing martial arts. Although I have made great progress in my cultivation now, she has become my lifelong regret."

Everyone felt sad when they heard this, and the elders even had red eyes.

After feeling sad for a while, the sect master seemed to remember something and asked quickly:

"By the way, Xiao Ran, is there no room for redemption in this matter?"

Lu Xiaoran shook his head.

"Of course not. Her master just dislikes my low level of cultivation and humble origins. As long as I succeed in my cultivation, he will definitely change his mind."

Everyone nodded, clenched their fists, and cheered for Lu Xiaoran.

"That's right, Xiao Ran, you must work hard to achieve great success as soon as possible, win a beautiful and wealthy woman, and reach the pinnacle of life."

"Xiao Ran, the task of revitalizing our Tianmo Sect now depends entirely on you."

The Great Elder changed the subject.

"It may be difficult to improve my cultivation in a short period of time. Why not improve Xiao Ran's status first? What do you think, Sect Master?"

Sect Master Chen nodded, then looked at Lu Xiaoran lovingly and said:

"Xiao Ran, after unanimous discussion between me and the elders, we have decided that I will step down from the throne of the sect leader, and you will take over the position of the sect leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect."

Lu Xiaoran: “???”

What a joke, he still has to go outside to find disciples and let him be the sect leader?

Absolutely not.

As the sect leader, he has to worry about the affairs of the entire Demon Sect, not to mention all the trivial matters. The problem is, how can he survive and develop steadily?

He would rather hide in his own Zhishui Peak for a hundred years and practice with his disciples.

Of course, the most important thing is that he doesn't want to be the sect leader. What he wants is to practice and become a top master.

Apart from cultivation, he wanted nothing else.

What women, what rights, they are all floating clouds. Only cultivation is your own and real.

So he waved his hands and said:

"No, no, I can't do that. I'm not cut out to be a sect leader. I just want to immerse myself in cultivation. Besides, I've been wanting to go out for a walk lately, try my luck, and see if there's any opportunity."

"hiss!"

The clan leader took a deep breath and said with a moved look:

"Look, all of you take a good look. This is our Elder Xiao Ran, so simple and unpretentious. I wanted to give him the position of the sect leader, but he refused. This huge benefit was placed in front of him, but he was not tempted, and his mind was not confused. With such a resolute mind, why worry about not being able to succeed in martial arts?"

"I won't say anything more. From today on, whatever cultivation resources you want, we in the Heavenly Demon Sect will agree to give them all. As long as it's what you want and we can give it to you, we'll give it to you. If it's something we can't give, we'll go out and buy it for you! In short, we'll do our utmost to help you improve your cultivation."

"When your cultivation reaches a certain level, I will give you the position of sect leader at any time. This will definitely not delay your cultivation."

All the elders nodded in agreement.

"The master said it well."

"The Sect Master is indeed worthy of being the Sect Master. He hit the nail on the head. I thought so too."

Lu Xiaoran was completely confused.

The sect leader's misunderstanding is quite deep. I am not really simple and unpretentious. I just want to practice cultivation and I am not interested in the position of sect leader at all.

If the position of clan leader could make him an emperor instantly, he would definitely take it without hesitation.
