Gu Qingxun hesitated for a moment and then seemed to have figured something out. With a determined expression, she said, "Grandmaster, I think the way the Faction Master handles things is unfair! Since I've made a contribution to Mount Penglai, not only should I not be punished, but I should be rewarded instead! In addition, I was attacked in the relic of Mount Yuanzhang because someone deliberately leaked my whereabouts, so the Faction Master should investigate this matter immediately. I believe everyone should understand this, so why did the Faction Master turn a blind eye to it? "
"You … Gu Qingxun, don't push your luck!" Daoist Qing Song was furious, thinking that Gu Qingxun didn't know what was good for him!
"Faction Master, I'm just stating the facts," Gu Qingxun said calmly, "Besides, Grandmaster asked me to say this."
"That's right! I asked her to say it. " Grandmaster Peng Wei obviously wanted to support Gu Qingxun to the end. "Daoist Qing Song, don't think that we old farts only care about cultivation and don't care about anything else. In fact, even Gu Qingxun can see some things, so how can we not? There is no doubt about why she was attacked on Mount Yuanliu. But you actually turned a blind eye to it. You have indeed disappointed me. Disciples of Mount Penglai, listen to my order: I, Grandmaster Peng Wei, represent all the Grand Supreme Elders of Mount Penglai to abolish Daoist Qing Song's position as the Sovereign! "
"What?" Daoist Qing Song froze on the spot as if he had been electrocuted. He felt that this matter was simply insignificant. How could it cause him to lose his position as the Faction Master? As the Faction Master of Mount Penglai, couldn't he punish a disciple?
Daoist Qing Song said loudly again, "Grandmaster Peng Wei, although you're highly respected, you can't do this. I, Daoist Qing Song, have made contributions to Mount Penglai. You can't do this to me!"
"Yes, you've indeed made some contributions to Mount Penglai. Therefore, we don't intend to punish you. On the contrary, we, the Grand Supreme Elders, will reward you. The Kunlun Immortal World has given Mount Penglai a position as a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, so we welcome you to join their immortal register! "
Join their immortal records?
When Qin Lang heard this, he found it a little funny. Grandmaster Peng Wei's style of speaking was really interesting. Although Qin Lang knew that adding an immortal record to the Ancient Kunlun Mountains might not be a good thing, Grandmaster Peng Wei's way of describing the immortal record was really novel.
When Daoist Qing Song heard this, he felt that he had received a great punishment. He couldn't help but say angrily, "Grandmaster Peng Wei! What you're doing is really unfair … "
Unfortunately, Grandmaster Peng Wei didn't want to listen to Daoist Qing Song's nonsense. With a wave of his hand, he swept Daoist Qing Song away and said calmly, "Daoist Qing Song, you should 'calm down' for a while! Since you want to cooperate with the people of Kunlun, you should be satisfied with joining the Kunlun Immortal Register! "
It turned out that Grandmaster Peng Wei knew that Daoist Qing Song had secretly cooperated with the people of Kunlun. It was no wonder that he wanted to abolish Daoist Qing Song's position as the sect master today. After all, cooperating with Kunlun, in a sense, was a betrayal of Mount Penglai. This was something that Grandmaster Peng Wei and the other Grand Supreme Elders would never agree to. It could be said that it had violated a taboo.
Qin Lang was too lazy to think about why Daoist Qing Song wanted to cooperate with the people of Kunlun. At this time, he was thinking about how these Grand Supreme Elders would "reward" Gu Qingxun. As the saying went, rewards and punishments should be clear. Since Daoist Qing Song had been punished, Gu Qingxun was now a meritorious servant. Of course, he had to reward him well.
As expected, Grandmaster Peng Wei continued, "Gu Qingxun, you really won first place in the Three Mountains Battle for the Crown and obtained the Earth's Root for Penglai. And now, you've killed over a thousand cultivators of the Sea People Tribe. This can also be considered to have raised the prestige of Penglai. Therefore, in our eyes, this is a great contribution and should be properly rewarded. How about this? Since Daoist Qing Song is no longer the Sovereign, then you can replace him as the Sovereign. "
"How can I do that?" Although Gu Qingxun had fantasized about becoming the sect master of Penglai, it was only a fantasy. Of course, she knew how difficult it was to become the sect master. She had been prepared to fight for a long time, but she didn't expect that happiness would come so suddenly. She was able to sit in the sect master's position in an instant. This was too fast and too exciting!
However, Gu Qingxun also knew when to be modest. She continued, "Grandmaster, thank you for thinking so highly of me. However, I'm young and insensible, and my cultivation and experience are still shallow. I'm really not qualified for this position. I know this very well. "
"Why not?" Grandmaster Peng Wei said with a smile, "Moreover, you're only the acting sect master! Although you're young and your cultivation and aptitude are indeed insufficient, your reputation is enough. You've also made great contributions to Penglai. Moreover, you're a Holy Disciple, and Holy Disciples are trained for the position of sect master. In short, I want you to do a good job as the acting sect master! "
"This … Grandmaster, I'm really worried that I won't do a good job."
"What's there to worry about? Don't forget that you still have us, the Grand Supreme Elders, behind you! We old farts will naturally support you at critical times, "Grandmaster Peng Wei said with a smile, unexpectedly deciding on this matter.
"Congratulations, Sect Master!"
"Congratulations, Sect Master!"
"Sect Master's prestige is vast and mighty. You'll definitely make Penglai shine brightly!"
"…"
Gu Qingxun had a group of followers to begin with. At this time, they naturally seized the opportunity to flatter her and build up her reputation. If Gu Qingxun became the sect master of Penglai Island, then it was only natural that they would all benefit. Even if Gu Qingxun couldn't become the sect master, according to her usual style of distinguishing rewards and punishments, her followers would definitely benefit.
Although there were still some Holy Disciples and their followers who didn't want to see Gu Qingxun become the sect master, they didn't dare to jump out and stop her at this critical time. After all, Gu Qingxun now had Grandmaster Peng Wei's support. Even Daoist Qing Song had been defeated this time. How could a mere Holy Disciple dare to jump out and oppose Gu Qingxun?
"Since there are no objections, then Gu Qingxun, you'll temporarily be the acting sect master of Penglai Island!" Grandmaster Peng Wei said loudly.
No objections? Who would dare to have any objections?
