On the other hand, the other newcomers were silent. They looked at Meng Jueguang with a strange gaze. Even if the newcomers of Blue Cloud Pavilion didn't have the ability to compete for the position of newcomer deacon, but as the Senior Brother Steward of Blue Cloud Pavilion, he was so attentively canvassing for votes for outsiders. Wasn't this a little too disappointing for his own people?
"Fellow disciples of Blue Cloud Pavilion, I'll leave tomorrow's voting in your hands. If I, Kang Ming Ming, take the position of newcomer deacon, I won't mistreat you in the future!" Kang Ming Ming took the opportunity to make a solemn vow to the crowd.
Of course, what he said was purely a lie. If he really became the new Deacon, all the dirty and tiring work would eventually fall onto the Clear Cloud Pavilion's new disciples. Could it be that he would let the Soaring Sky Pavilion's second generation disciples do the menial chores? Not to mention the Soaring Sky Pavilion's Second Generation cultivators, even those powerful old fogies from the Profound Secrets Pavilion were not people Huang Xiaolong was willing to offend. The easiest targets to bully were the new trash disciples from the Clear Cloud Pavilion.
"Hehe, rest assured, Junior Brother Kang. The newcomers of Blue Cloud Pavilion don't have many good points, but they are absolutely obedient. Just wait to become a newcomer deacon. When the time comes, don't forget about me!" Meng Jueguang said with a smile.
Although Kang Ming was a newcomer from the secular world like Lin Yi, he had the backing of Xu Lingchong, the young master of Soaring Sky Pavilion's inner sect. In Meng Jueguang's eyes, Kang Ming's weight was naturally different. He was worth fawning over.
"Then I'll have to trouble Senior Brother Meng to help me keep an eye on it. This opportunity is very important to me. I can't afford to fail," Kang Ming Ming said worriedly. This was related to his personal future, so he had to be careful.
"Hehe, Junior Brother Kang, you can rest assured. This is an open secret ballot. If anyone dares to disobey, I'll teach them a lesson," Meng Jueguang said without concealment. Hearing this, the newcomers' expressions changed. The threat was a little too direct.
However, the rookies finally understood. Since they had no hope of being elected, it did not matter who they voted for. There was no need to offend Meng Jueguang, the Eldest Senior Brother in charge, over such a trivial matter.
Seeing that everyone nodded obediently, Meng Jueguang could not help but point his chin at Kang Ming Ming proudly. However, when he saw Lin Yi and the other two, his expression changed. Because Lin Yi and the other two didn't have any intention of going along with him. They just stood there with their arms crossed. He looked on coldly from the sidelines.
The others were afraid of Meng Jueguang because they were afraid that he would make things difficult for them in the future. However, Lin Yi and the other two were already on bad terms with him. Even if they obeyed him now, there would be no benefit. It was better to act tough.
After all, to Lin Yi, even if he did not want to offend Meng Jueguang, he had already offended them. And this time, if Kang Ming Ming was elected as a new deacon, there would be some trouble in the future. At least, the dirtiest and most tiring work would definitely be spread to him. So this time, he definitely could not let him have his way.
In fact, even if Xu Lingchong helped him settle the Soaring Pavilion's votes, he might not be able to settle the old men in the Mysterious Pavilion. And according to the rules, the votes had to exceed two-thirds. As long as the Blue Cloud Pavilion's Lin Yi and the other two did not agree, even if the others voted for him, there was a high possibility that he would not be elected in the end!
Just now, he had already patted his chest and said something big, but in the end, he immediately saw someone not cooperating. Meng Jueguang's old face suddenly became a little hot. If it was someone else, he would have scolded them long ago. However, facing a troublesome newbie like Lin Yi … However, there was nothing he could do.
He clearly didn't want to listen to you. Even if you made things difficult for him in the future, he wasn't afraid of you. What else could you do?
"Senior Brother Meng, can't you handle them?" Kang Ming Ming quickly realized that something was wrong. After all, Lin Yi and company's unwavering stance was the complete opposite of the other rookies' submissive performance. Furthermore, Lin Yi was a thorn in his side that he paid special attention to. It was hard for him not to notice it.
"Uh … There are always some arrogant newbies who don't want to be disciplined. There's still a long way to go. I, your brother, will let them know how powerful I am." Meng Jueguang could only say with a shy face.
"There's still a long way to go …" Kang Ming Ming couldn't help but roll his eyes. For Meng Jueguang, of course, there was still a long way to go. However, he couldn't wait. The voting would be held tomorrow morning. If he couldn't win over the Blue Cloud Pavilion's side, the votes might not reach two-thirds. Then, all his efforts would be in vain.
No, he had to quickly nip the risk in the bud. As for seeking revenge on Lin Yi, as long as he became the new deacon, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future!
Kang Ming Ming had no choice but to explain the situation to Xu Lingchong. Xu Lingchong nodded and signaled him to personally settle it. After all, Kang Ming Ming was someone he publicly supported. Before coming here, he had already built up enough momentum. If he couldn't get the new deacon tomorrow, then if word got out, even he, Master Xu, would lose face along with him!
Kang Ming Ming was instantly overjoyed. He quickly followed behind Xu Lingchong and walked towards Lin Yi. He thought to himself, "Now that Master Xu is personally taking action, let's see if Lin Yi can still be so stubborn!"
Zhong Pingliang, who was also following behind, was a little worried. Although on the surface, he had defected to Xu Lingchong's side, he was actually Lin Yi's spy. After interacting with Xu Lingchong for a few hours, he already knew that Xu Lingchong not only had a strong background, but his own strength was also extremely high. If Boss Lin were to rashly talk back to him, it was very likely that he would suffer a huge loss!
"You're Lin Yi? I heard that you're very prestigious in the secular world! "Xu Lingchong led his men and stopped in front of Lin Yi, his face full of mockery as he spoke condescendingly.
This instantly attracted the attention of everyone present. Seeing that the main character was actually this secular world's Lin Yi, they couldn't help but reveal expressions of watching a good show. Sure enough, acting tough was met with lightning. This Lin Yi seemed to be in big trouble!
Xu Lingchong actually disdained to stand up for Kang Ming Ming before. With his status in the north island of Heaven Island, he was a famous existence in the three pavilions. It seemed a little unreasonable for him to teach an outer sect disciple who had just entered Heaven Island a lesson. If people knew about it, it would seem like he was bullying the weak.
However, Xu Lingchong was really angry today. Previously, he brought Kang Ming Ming to the Mysterious Pavilion. Although the two old stewards of the Mysterious Pavilion gave him face and helped Kang Ming Ming advertise a little, it could be seen that they weren't very enthusiastic. Only a few people responded, and it was unknown whether they were sincere or not.
This made him feel a little embarrassed, but after all, the Mysterious Pavilion's strength was only slightly inferior to the Soaring Pavilion. He, Xu Lingchong, didn't have the strength to act tough with these old men.
