"Greetings, elder Yuan Jue."
In elder Yuan Jue's study, Bei Chongguang hurriedly stepped forward and respectfully bowed.
"Chongguang, you're finally here. I came to find you today because I have something important to tell you. A day ago, our Hunyuan Heaven Sect held a meeting of the supreme elders. There were twelve supreme elders present, accounting for half of the total number of supreme elders. The decision we made was based on the sect's rules and regulations. During the meeting, we unanimously agreed to add a new member to our supreme elder council and become the new supreme elder of our Hunyuan Heaven Sect."
Bei Chongguang tactfully said, "Please rest assured, elder Yuan Jue, I know what to do. Currently, Duan Xu has yet to return, and the new supreme elder shouldn't have any interest with us. If we can take this opportunity to win him over, it will definitely give us a greater chance of ruling the Hunyuan Heaven Sect in the future."
Elder Yuan Jue glanced at Bei Chongguang and nodded with some relief. "Very good, you didn't think so highly of me and wholeheartedly supported you. As the saying goes, those who achieve great things don't care about trifles. I originally thought that because of the special status of the new supreme elder and the fact that he has a small conflict with you, it would be embarrassing for you to go and win him over. However, it is commendable that you were able to see the pros and cons of this matter at the first moment. Your breadth of mind and boldness is far from what Duan Xu can compare to. I believe that the next sect master of our Hunyuan Heaven Sect will be none other than you."
"Hmm?"
When Bei Zhong Guang heard Elder Yuan Jue's words, he immediately felt that something was not quite right.
The new supreme elder had a special status? He had a small conflict with him?
For a moment, Bei Chongguang couldn't help but think hard. "Elder, I wonder who the new supreme elder is? Currently, the top ten hall masters of our Hunyuan Heaven Sect have all reached the peak of the Qingming stage and have hopes of condensing a Saint Body and stepping into the Vision Domain stage. However, I have always tried my best to maintain a good relationship with these hall masters and have never formed any grudges with them. Sometimes, during festivals, I would even ask my subordinates to give them generous gifts to maintain friendly relations. Among these people, there shouldn't be any conflict with me, right? "
"Hall Master? The person who was promoted to grand elder this time wasn't one of the top ten hall masters of our Hunyuan Heaven Sect, but a newly established vice hall master. I believe you've heard of this vice hall master before. He's the alliance master of the Life Moon Alliance, the overseas faction that recently surrendered to our Hunyuan Heaven Sect, Cho Tsing Hui. "
Elder Yuan Jue said slowly.
However, as soon as the words' Cho Tsing Hui 'were mentioned, Bei Zhong Guang, who was still thinking about how to gain the favor of the new Supreme Elder, suddenly cried out in shock, "What!? The Vice Hall Master of the Sea Suppressing Palace, Cho Tsing Hui!? "
"That's right. This newly promoted Grand Elder is the Vice Hall Master of the Sea Suppressing Palace, Cho Tsing Hui."
"How is that possible? Didn't Cho Tsing Hui just join our Hunyuan Heaven Sect? Even if he has the power of the Life Moon Alliance behind him, letting him become a hall master is already the limit. How could he be directly promoted to the Grand Elder Council and become a grand elder of our Hunyuan Heaven Sect? Elder, could there be a mistake in this matter? "
Bei Zhong Guang asked in disbelief, a trace of panic in his voice.
Elder Yuan Jue was somewhat dissatisfied with Bei Zhong Guang's questioning words. He snorted softly and said, "The twelve of us grand elders, including the sect master, spent half a day discussing in detail and decided to promote the former vice hall master of the Sea Suppressing Palace, Cho Tsing Hui, to the nineteenth grand elder of our Hunyuan Heaven Sect's Grand Elder Council. How could this be false?"
"No, please forgive me elder. I didn't mean to doubt elder's words. It's just that …"
Bei Zhong Guang was somewhat at a loss. A mere vice hall master of the Sea Suppressing Palace, who had joined the Hunyuan Heaven Sect for less than a month, was directly promoted to a grand elder of the Grand Elder Council? He simply couldn't react to such a huge and sudden change.
"This matter is absolutely true. I know that you and Hall Master Cho Tsing Hui — no, Elder Cho Tsing Hui had some small conflicts because of your good-for-nothing brother. You even secretly wanted to prevent Cho Tsing Hui from joining our Hunyuan Heaven Sect's Grand Elder Council, but when I learned of the reason why the sect master and the others allowed him to become a grand elder, after some consideration, I had no choice but to agree and express my approval. Otherwise, it would be equivalent to our Hunyuan Heaven Sect cutting off our own arm! Therefore, Elder Cho Tsing Hui's entry into the Grand Elder Council is already set in stone, and no one can change it. We only need to wait for him to return to our Hunyuan Heaven Sect in a day or two, and this matter will be completely announced to the world and all the sects in the Eastern Wasteland will know. "
As elder Yuan Jue spoke, he solemnly stared at Bei Zhong Guang. "Zhong Guang, as far as I know, you and grand elder Cho Tsing Hui only had some small conflicts, and it's nothing more than a loss of face. Now that Cho Tsing Hui has become a grand elder of our Hunyuan Heaven Sect's Grand Elder Council, even if you have the status of a vice sect master, it's nothing for a disciple like you to apologize and give in to him. When you arrived, you also said that a new grand elder doesn't have any interest in the other vice sect masters. If we can take this opportunity to rope him in, it will greatly increase our chances of ruling the Hunyuan Heaven Sect in the future. Therefore, this matter is not only related to your future, but also to whether the support I, Fa Die, You Lang and the others will receive in the future. Do you understand?"
Seeing the solemn look on Elder Yuan Jue's face, Bei Zhong Guang felt his heart tremble with fear.
The reason why elder Yuan Jue, elder Fa Die and elder You Lang had spared no effort to support him and push him to the sect master's throne was because once he sat on the sect master's throne, the sect's resources would be slightly tilted towards the three grand elders in the future. So that they would have a chance to cultivate True Yuan and step into the Saint stage in the future?
This point could be seen from the fact that there were three Vision Saint stage ancestors among the eight grand elders who supported Zuo Kunlun back then.
If he were to offend a newly promoted Grand Supreme Elder just because of his so-called face, and forcefully push this Grand Supreme Elder, who originally had hopes of being pulled to his side, to the opposite side of him ….
The three grand elders would be extremely disappointed in him!
Especially now that Jie Xu had appeared out of nowhere, even if he was arrogant and unruly, he still could not hide his peerless appearance. At that time, the three grand elders would most likely abandon him and support Jie Xu.
Once the grand elders really did so, Jie Xu would have the support of eight or nine grand elders, and the sect master's throne would no longer have any suspense.
At that time, when Jie Xu took the throne, what good would happen to him, the first vice sect master who had once competed with him for the sect master's throne?
All the benefits and power he had now, and those followers who believed in his future potential and were willing to follow him around would vanish like smoke. He, Bei Zhong Guang, would also be beaten back to his original state, reduced to the level of a hall master at best.
"Elder, I..."
A trace of pain and hesitation flashed across Bei Zhong Guang's face. He was about to say something, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Elder Yuan Jue with a wave of his hand.
"Zhong Guang, I have already said what I need to say to you. You should be able to see that although you have the support of me, Fa Die, and You Lang, the two grand elders, in reality, you do not have much of an advantage in the competition with Jie Xu. It can even be said that you are clearly at a disadvantage. After all, you have been stuck at the peak of the Green Hell Realm for more than ten years, and there is no hope of entering the Vision Saint stage in a short period of time... In this situation, the forces on our side have already become restless. Some of my subordinate elders, hall masters, and disciples have even faintly mentioned to me that they want us to change sides and make plans early. Otherwise, when Jie Xu takes the sect master's throne, even if he cannot do anything to us, it is not difficult for him to reduce the amount of resources we can obtain greatly. Therefore, in this situation, it is inevitable that people will be moved, and we urgently need a strong support to raise the morale of our side, do you understand?"
"I..."
Bei Zhong Guang thought about how he had talked with Cho Tsing Hui not long ago, and how he had vowed to let Cho Tsing Hui know the consequences of offending him. If he went to curry favor with him at this time...
For a moment, he felt his face burning, and he had no face left.
"Don't think that Cho Tsing Hui is just an ordinary grand elder..."
Elder Yuan Jue looked at Bei Zhong Guang, and said meaningfully, "Originally, with Cho Tsing Hui's ability, even if he has the battle strength to suppress Yuan He and Qin Zhen, the two grand elders, it is not enough for the sect master and us grand elders to make an exception and take him into the grand elder council before he has made any great contributions... but... from what I know, behind that Cho Tsing Hui, there is a great background... it is very likely that he is a disciple of a mysterious almighty being."
"Battle strength to suppress Yuan He and Qin Zhen, the two grand elders!? A disciple of a mysterious almighty being from another continent!? An almighty being!? "
The content of this sentence made Bei Zhong Guang completely dumbfounded.
Suppressing Yuan He and Qin Zhen, the two grand elders!?
Cho Tsing Hui's strength was so terrifying!?
And his identity and background...
An almighty being!?
As the first deputy sect master of the Hunyuan Heaven Sect, he understood very well what the words' almighty being 'meant!
It was an invincible existence that could easily flatten the entire Hunyuan Heaven Sect, and even the entire Eastern Wilderness. Even if the Hunyuan Heaven Sect had recently joined Shadow Sword and become a part of Shadow Sword, if they dared to offend an almighty being, Shadow Sword would not hesitate to abandon them to appease that almighty being's anger.
At this thought, Bei Zhong Guang felt his voice tremble. "This... elder, is what you said true? Cho Tsing Hui really has an almighty background!? "
"Although it is not confirmed yet, but..."
Elder Yuanjue paused for a moment, and then said seriously, "Think carefully about Tsing Hui's ability, and then think about his current age! If it weren't for the fact that he has an almighty backing him, how could he possibly be able to suppress two of our Hunyuan Heaven Sect's grand elders at the age of thirty?! "
"This..."
Bei Zhong Guang's heart turned completely cold.
Elder Yuanjue stepped forward and patted Bei Zhong Guang's shoulder. "Zhong Guang, I've already told you the news. It's up to you to decide what to do. Jie Xu is not in the sect, and this is your greatest opportunity. I hope... you won't let us down."
