"Deserving of it?" Bing Wuqing's expression became more and more strange. She looked at Hong Qingyuan and the others and said, "He's a fool, and you guys are playing along with him. When did you guys become so playful?"
"Uh …" Everyone broke out in a cold sweat. Although Bing Wuqing's words weren't very respectful, the truth was that they had been kidnapped by Xue Jianfeng and forced to acknowledge him as the Managing Deputy Sect Leader. After all, Xue Jianfeng was a Golden Core Perfected cultivator!
"What did you say!" Xue Jianfeng was completely enraged. He was afraid of her strength, but it didn't mean that he only dared to act like a coward in front of her. If he was really cornered, he would also turn hostile!
"Sneaking around behind my back and baring your teeth at me. Where did you get your confidence from?" When she said this, Bing Wuqing didn't even look at Xue Jianfeng. The disdain was almost obvious on her face.
When Xue Jianfeng heard this, he was instantly enraged. However, when he thought that the other party was very likely to be the strongest Aurous Core expert in the legends, he didn't dare to act rashly. After all, he hadn't been overwhelmed by anger yet. He could only suppress his anger and clench his teeth as he said, "From what you're saying, could it be that you want to snatch the position of Deputy Sect Master from my hands?"
Bing Wuqing snorted and said disdainfully, "I'm not interested in such a stupid position."
"Bing Wuqing, don't go too far!" If it weren't for the fact that he was afraid that he couldn't beat her, Xue Jianfeng would have killed this dead-faced bastard with a sword!
"Wait, don't be impatient, both of you!" Seeing that the situation wasn't good, Hong Qingyuan quickly stepped forward to mediate. If he really let Bing Wuqing and Xue Jianfeng fight like this, although he could sit on the sidelines and watch them fight, then the situation would be completely out of control. If two Golden Core Perfected experts really fought, even he wouldn't be able to stop them easily.
After all, he was the sect leader. Hong Qingyuan's words were more or less effective. Bing Wuqing and Xue Jianfeng stopped fighting. Her gaze then landed on him.
"With the two of your superb strength, it is reasonable for you to bear heavy responsibilities. Now that Jian Feng is already the Deputy Sect Leader, Wu Qing should also arrange a position of equal strength to show fairness. Originally, because Wu Qing was in seclusion, I was going to postpone the discussion on this matter. Now that Wu Qing has come out of seclusion, how about we settle it together today? "Hong Qingyuan said.
He had been regretting it ever since Xue Jianfeng had flipped out. Now, Bing Wuqing had suddenly appeared out of nowhere and interfered. Even though Xue Jianfeng was also somewhat condescending, it was a good thing for him. It was just nice for him to keep Xue Jianfeng in check, lest Xue Jianfeng become unruly and out of control.
"Equally matched positions?" Bing Wuqing raised her brows slightly.
"The Managing Vice Sect Leader is second only to the Sect Leader. He is undoubtedly the number two figure in the Elder Guild. There's no such thing as an equal position!" Xue Jianfeng was extremely displeased when he heard that. The title of Managing Vice Sect Leader was not something that he had come up with on a whim. He had racked his brains for it so that he could surpass Bing Wuqing and be on par with her. Wouldn't he have wasted all his efforts?
"Positions are all created by people. Before today, I had never heard of any Managing Vice Sect Leader. Isn't it still here now?" Chi Qianqiu sneered. He, as the Great Elder, was supposed to be the second-in-command. Now, not only did the Managing Vice Sect Leader appear out of nowhere, even Bing Wuqing was about to climb over his head. He felt really upset.
But then again, it was not that he was blind to the bigger picture. In this situation, he was definitely on Bing Wuqing's side. After all, it was better to have someone to keep her in check than not.
"Hmph. Then tell me, what other position can be on par with the Managing Vice Sect Leader? "Xue Jianfeng said disdainfully.
"Well …" Chi Qianqiu pondered for a moment, then said, "Since there's already an Managing Vice Sect Leader, why don't we have a First Vice Sect Leader?"
"First Vice Sect Leader?" Xue Jianfeng frowned. He scolded, "Great Elder, have you gone senile? The Managing Vice Sect Leader is already the number one Vice Sect Leader. What First Vice Sect Leader!"
"That's not the same. The Managing Vice Sect Leader is the number one Vice Sect Leader. Who said that both positions must be held concurrently?" The Second Elder chuckled.
The other Elders who had the right to speak also chimed in. Since there was already an Managing Vice Sect Leader, they did not mind having another First Vice Sect Leader. It would be perfect for Bing Wuqing and Xue Jianfeng to fight amongst themselves. They were more than happy to sit on the sidelines and reap the spoils later.
"Preposterous!" Xue Jianfeng was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He hated Bing Wuqing again. If it were not for her, he would have succeeded in killing people to establish his dominance. These old farts would not have dared to pick a fight with him.
"What do you think?" Hong Qingyuan looked at Bing Wuqing. At this point, Xue Jianfeng's attitude was obviously irrelevant. With all of them pushing for it, as long as Bing Wuqing herself agreed, the First Vice Sect Leader position was already set in stone. Even if Xue Jianfeng and his father Xue Liping joined forces, they would not be able to stop it.
"Is it appropriate for something like this to happen without me, the Managing Vice Sect Leader's approval?" Xue Jianfeng was still making his final struggle.
In the end, Bing Wuqing glanced at him indifferently and said disdainfully, "It's none of your business. Now that I'm too lazy to attack you, you'd better get lost. Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless."
"Humph, what a big tone. I'd like to see it for myself!" Xue Jianfeng said as he suddenly drew his sword again. Without hesitation, he soared into the sky and launched a powerful attack from above. His sword fell from the Nine Heavens!
Everyone, including Hong Qingyuan, turned pale with fright. This guy was really a lunatic. Not only did he attack Xu Xiaodong just now, but now he even dared to attack Bing Wuqing, who was also a Golden Core Perfected cultivator. Moreover, he used such a trump card right from the start!
The entire meeting hall was instantly in chaos. Everyone's first reaction was to dodge and retreat subconsciously. After all, swords had no eyes. Although they were all Golden Core experts, once they were hit by the aftermath of a Golden Core Perfected cultivator's attack, it would be fatal.
However, it turned out that they had been overthinking things.
There were no aftershocks, nor were there any innocent bystanders caught in the crossfire. In the face of Xue Jianfeng's powerful attack, Bing Wuqing used only one move to easily end the battle. It was her signature move, the Merciless Ice Stance.
In the past, although the Merciless Ice Stance had also exerted great pressure on others, it was ultimately just pressure. When faced with experts of the same level, it could at most have a limited effect. However, the scene that was unfolding in front of everyone's eyes right now had completely overturned all their previous understanding.
