The news of changing the clan rules quickly spread in the clan. Everyone was most concerned about the matter of Tenth Granduncle becoming an elder.
According to the original clan rules, it was unlikely for most cultivators to become elders.
Their hard work and sacrifice for the family might not be rewarded.
Now that the clan rules had changed, many people who originally had no hope of becoming elders now saw hope.
Even if they were only honorary elders, their monthly stipends and status were real.
Even if they couldn't become elders, being a steward wasn't bad either. The treatment was much better than before.
Moreover, it was said that the monthly stipends would be changed in the future. Those who had made special contributions would be given more contribution points and more monthly stipends.
The clan members' enthusiasm for work suddenly rose, and the entire clan's spirit and outlook were brand new.
All these years, Tenth Granduncle had been staying in Mirror Iron Mountain to manage the business in Green Willow Province.
The clan was establishing various halls and had many matters to attend to. As the trading elder, Tenth Granduncle needed to return as soon as possible to sort out the affairs of the trading hall.
In addition, he had to prepare for the clan leader's succession ceremony.
It would take several days for him to return on the spirit ship.
In order not to delay matters, Wang Daoyuan personally brought Yun Yi to pick up Tenth Granduncle.
The fact that the Cloudwing Tiger had managed to subdue ten Foundation Establishment cultivators with a single roar spread like wildfire.
When the clansmen saw Yun Yi flying in the sky, they were also very excited.
Yun Yi was even more excited. She was bullied in the spiritual pearl's space all day long and couldn't fly freely.
After the spiritual pearl's space was upgraded, it was less than three hundred feet tall. It was too small for her huge body.
Now that she had a chance to come out, she was willing to do manual labor.
As soon as this fellow came out, she flew desperately. Wang Daoyuan couldn't catch up with her at all.
He might as well just ride it and hurry on his way.
Yun Yi flew at a normal speed, more than two thousand miles in two hours.
The man and the tiger arrived at Mirror Iron Mountain in less than two hours.
When the clansmen of Mirror Iron Mountain saw Wang Daoyuan riding Yun Yi, they were very envious.
Time was of the essence, so he didn't have time to stay. He returned to Jade Spring Peak after picking up Tenth Granduncle.
Tenth Great Uncle was already over a hundred and ten years old. He rode Yun Yi and flew in the air. He was as excited as a child.
Yun Yi's flying speed was fast, and Wang Daoyuan cast a layer of spirit energy barrier on her.
He excitedly said, "Dao Yuan, remove the protective shield. I also want to experience the feeling of flying.
I've always envied you Foundation Establishment cultivators for being able to fly on swords.
It was a pity that Foundation Establishment cultivators couldn't take others with them on their flying swords, so they had never tried it before.
I didn't expect that I would have a chance after being buried up to my neck. "
Wang Daoyuan asked Yun Yi to slow down and then put away the protective shield.
Feeling the wind blowing on his cheeks, the hundred-year-old man was so excited that his eyes were brimming with tears.
The two of them quickly arrived at Jade Spring Peak. As soon as Tenth Great Uncle landed, he began to command his clansmen to prepare for the Clan Head Succession Ceremony.
Five days later, the entire Jade Spring Peak was draped in red and jubilant decorations. Next, it was time to invite guests.
This job could only fall on Wang Daoyuan's head. Qi Condensation cultivators were too slow, and he was the only junior among the Foundation Establishment cultivators.
After all, there was no reason for an elder to do the job of sending invitations.
Preparing for the Disciplinary Hall was also simple. The Disciplinary Hall usually didn't have a fixed job.
A few upright clansmen with management experience were found to be stewards, and the daily affairs were left to them to manage.
After spending three days, they finally visited all the clans in the northern part of Qingli Prefecture that were friendly with the Wang Clan.
Half a month later, the Clan Head Succession Ceremony officially began.
Wang Daochang and Wang Daoyuan were in charge of welcoming guests. Wang Daochang was in charge of welcoming Qi Condensation cultivators, and Wang Daoyuan was in charge of welcoming Foundation Establishment cultivators.
The Meng Clan sent Meng Changfeng in person, while the Yang Clan sent Yang Yulin.
The clans that were in the same camp as the Yang Clan, whether they were Foundation Establishment or peak Qi Condensation elders, all sent people to congratulate them.
The congratulatory gifts were also relatively simple. Most of them were medicinal pills, spirit medicines, magic tools, and the like that early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators could use.
After half a day, all the friendly clans nearby had arrived.
The Clan Head Succession Ceremony was about to begin. Wang Daoyuan and Wang Daochang also had to return to the Ancestral Temple to participate in the ceremony.
At this moment, a sword light flashed in the southwest direction.
After a few breaths, a Foundation Establishment cultivator landed in front of Wang Daoyuan.
The person laughed loudly: "The Wang Clan doesn't treat me as a friend. Such a big event like the Clan Head Succession Ceremony, and they didn't even inform me.
Today, I have to make Wang Daoyou drink a good cup. "
Wang Daoyuan bowed and said: "Senior Li, please forgive me. The two clans are thousands of miles apart, and you have to deal with a lot of matters every day. I dare not trouble you with such a small matter."
The person who came was the Li Clan Head Li Xinghe, who had a conflict with the Jin Clan outside Jinyan City.
Wang Daoyuan welcomed Li Xinghe to the Ancestral Temple. At this moment, the older generation of Foundation Establishment cultivators were all chatting around Wang Zhian, and the younger generation were all chatting around Wang Shouye.
Seeing that Li Xinghe had arrived, Wang Zhian immediately went forward to welcome him.
Li Xinghe said reproachfully: "Wang Daoyou, you don't treat me as a friend.
You didn't even send me an invitation for such a big event.
I came uninvited. Don't tell me the Wang Clan didn't prepare food and wine for me? "
Wang Zhian smiled and said: "You are a busy person with many things to do. How would I dare to trouble you with such a small matter?
Don't worry about the food and wine. It's enough to get you drunk dozens of times. "
Li Xinghe sighed and said: "I really envy you. The Wang Clan has a successor, and you have such a good successor like Shouye Little Friend.
Also, Daoyuan and Daochang, these two Little Friend, can also take on important roles.
Unlike me, I have to personally deal with the matters of the clan. "
Wang Zhian smiled and said: "You are too modest. The Li Clan has more than a hundred cultivators, and I have seen only two juniors who can take on important roles.
If you want to be like me and focus on cultivation, can't you find someone to entrust it to? "
Li Xinghe smiled in relief: "There are indeed a few juniors in the clan who can be entrusted with important roles. However, compared to the three juniors you have, they are still lacking.
Furthermore, they are still immature. I am still worried about handing the clan over to them now. "
The two of them exchanged pleasantries, and soon, the ceremony officially began.
Grand Duke Wang Jize personally read the sacrificial oration in front of the ancestral temple, informing the ancestors that the clan had a new clan leader.
The sacrificial oration first praised Wang Zhian for stabilizing the clan that was on the verge of collapse during his time as the clan leader, and even led the clan to prosperity.
After that, it praised Wang Shouye for his excellent talent, and for being able to take on important roles. He would definitely be able to inherit the foundation of the ancestors, carry on the ambition of reviving the clan, and lead the clan back to its former glory.
Finally, it prayed for the ancestors to bless the clan and ensure that the clan would prosper for ten thousand years.
After the sacrificial oration was read, the new and old clan leaders handed over the clan leader's seal.
Wang Zhian handed the Raging Wave Sword and the clan leader's seal to Wang Shouye, and gave him a few words of encouragement.
The Raging Wave Sword was a magic tool that Wang Chengzu often used when he was still a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Later on, because the Wang clan leader had always been a Foundation Establishment cultivator, this sword became the symbol of the Wang clan leader's identity.
Wang Shouye bowed and received the sword and seal, expressing that he would work hard and lead the clan back to its former glory.
After the ceremony, it was time to start the banquet.
Wang Daoyuan led everyone to the hall below the ancestral temple, north of the Jade Dragon Spring.
The hall was only used for important events such as the arrival of important guests or the inauguration of the clan leader.
The final segment of the ceremony was held in the hall.
Currently, the Wang clan had many different types of spirit beasts and spirit fruits, and they even had the Scarlet Blood Wine that had been stored in the cellar for decades. In addition, they had a restaurant that had been open for more than twenty years, and they also had a few clan members with good culinary skills.
All the guests who came to congratulate them were full of praise for the Wang clan's food and wine.
