The Hidden Sword Sect had a total of thirty-six mountains. Some of the weaker mountains only had Never-Ending stage experts, while the stronger mountains had several Golden Core stage experts.
Just like two years ago, the North Moon Peak had eight Golden Core stage experts, second only to the main peak, the Hidden Sword Peak.
Following the defection of the North Moon Peak's Mu Shengyi, Bei Shentong, and Bei Yue Xuan with the excuse of going out for training, the various guests also left the Hidden Sword Sect. Now, the entire North Moon Peak only had one Golden Core stage expert left. Although it could still be called a powerful mountain, its reputation was far inferior to before.
Following the Hidden Sword Sect's general meeting, numerous Golden Core stage, Never-Ending stage, Transformative stage, and True Element stage experts rushed over from all directions and gathered on the Sword Evaluation Platform. The originally lifeless Hidden Sword Sect was suddenly filled with vitality, becoming incomparably lively, as if it had reappeared in its heyday. Seeing this, the old people who supported the Hidden Sword Sect were extremely excited, as if they had been dreaming of this scene.
"As expected of the overlord sect that dominates the entire Hidden Sword Continent."
Tsing Hui and the people from the Divine Grace Chamber of Commerce arrived a little later. When he arrived, eighty to ninety percent of the experts from the Hidden Sword Sect's thirty-six mountains had already arrived. At a glance, one powerful aura after another soared into the sky, intertwining into one. The momentum was so great that it was unknown how many times greater than that of the Hunyuan Heavenly Sect and the Creation Mysterious Sect.
It had to be known that in terms of resources, the Eastern Wilderness was actually only slightly inferior to the Hidden Sword Continent. The reason it had fallen to such an extent was mainly because the ten sacred sects each had the support of the Chaos Organization behind them. They fought and killed each other, and their strength couldn't be unified. If the Eastern Wilderness could really give birth to an almighty expert and completely unify the entire Eastern Wilderness, then even if it didn't develop to the scale of the Hidden Sword Sect that had nearly a hundred Golden Core stage experts, it wouldn't be a problem for the number of experts in the Eastern Wilderness to increase by two levels.
"With my current cultivation level … I can even kill the incarnation of a Daolord in one fell swoop … However, I can use the Incarnation Technique to use my personal space to teleport and travel. There must be such experts in the Heavenly Dao, but in these few years, the Heavenly Dao has been accumulating strength and discussing the distribution of benefits with the Divine Wilderness and Eternity. It didn't divert its attention to a small matter like the Eastern Wilderness, which allowed me to destroy the Creation Mysterious Sect … If I really face the true body of a Divine Power expert, I might not be able to take advantage of it … Therefore, for safety's sake, it won't be too late to unify the Eastern Wilderness and integrate it into one after my cultivation level improves a little. After all, I've already plundered a wave of the Eastern Wilderness' Daoist Rhymes in the Eastern Wilderness. In the next ten years, I won't be able to accumulate anything, so there's no need to rush."
Looking at the glorious scene of the Hidden Sword Sect, Tsing Hui naturally thought of the situation in the Eastern Wilderness.
Compared to the Hidden Sword Continent, it was obvious that he had a natural affinity with the Eastern Wilderness, which was the first continent to arrive.
"The Hidden Sword Venerable has arrived!"
Just as Tsing Hui was sizing up the experts below the Hidden Sword Sect, a voice suddenly came from the void.
Suddenly, the Hidden Sword Sect experts, who were originally bustling with noise and discussion, all lowered their voices at the same time and looked in the direction of the loud shout.
"Whoosh!"
Sword Radiance pierced through the sky!
The Hidden Sword Venerable, who had become one with his sword, brought with him a majestic Sword Dao aura and landed on one of the seats at the top of the Sword Grading Platform. The majestic Sword Dao aura that belonged to the Ultimate Sword Dao aura shot up into the sky and into the clouds. It was so powerful that it shocked all the cultivators of the Prominent Divine Stage, True Energy Stage, Transcendent Stage, Never-Ending Stage, and Golden Core Stage. They all looked at the Hidden Sword Venerable with respect.
"Welcome, Hidden Sword Venerable!"
Along with the Hidden Sword Peak Lord, who was also the current Sect Leader of the Hidden Sword Sect, Xiao Liuying, who was known as the Sword Sage in the Hidden Sword Continent, shouted. Everyone shouted at the same time and bowed to the Hidden Sword Venerable.
Some of the people who had not seen the Hidden Sword Venerable for a long time even shouted excitedly to express their surprise at finally seeing the founder of the Hidden Sword Sect.
"No need to be so polite."
The Hidden Sword Venerable waved his hand at the crowd. It was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry.
"Tsing Hui, my friend, please come up and take a seat."
After everyone bowed, the Hidden Sword Venerable looked at Tsing Hui and said to Tsing Hui with a smile.
Following his words, everyone looked at Tsing Hui.
It should be known that everyone on the Sword Grading Platform was the peak lord of the Hidden Sword Sect. If they were not a peak lord, even if they were in the Golden Core Stage, they would still have to stand below the Sword Grading Platform.
As for taking a seat …
There were only three people who were qualified to take a seat.
One was the Hidden Sword Venerable, the current Sect Leader of the Hidden Sword Sect, Xiao Liuying, and the other was the second disciple of the Hidden Sword Venerable, who was also one of the two elders that Tsing Hui had met in the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain, Duan Jianfeng.
Among the three of them, the Sect Leader, Xiao Liuying, had to take charge of the situation. Duan Jianfeng was already 1,900 years old and could barely maintain his Golden Core Stage. No one could say anything about him taking a seat. However, Tsing Hui …
For someone who was not from the Hidden Sword Sect to be so valued by the Hidden Sword Venerable … At that moment, the peak lords and elders who had wanted to visit Tsing Hui but did not do so, all of them regretted it.
Tsing Hui was more important to the Hidden Sword Venerable than they had imagined.
"Whoosh!"
Since the Hidden Sword Venerable had personally invited him, Tsing Hui could not ignore it. In a flash, he appeared beside the Hidden Sword Venerable.
"Sword Venerable."
"Have a seat!"
The Hidden Sword Venerable said with a smile.
Tsing Hui did not decline and sat down. Immediately, the Hidden Sword Venerable's second disciple, Duan Jianfeng, and his grand disciple, Xiao Liuying, looked at him.
As Tsing Hui sat down, the Hidden Sword Venerable said loudly, "I believe everyone knows why I have gathered all of you here. However, before we settle this matter, I have to announce that Tsing Hui will be the Supreme Elder of the Hidden Sword Sect."
"Boom!"
As soon as the Hidden Sword Venerable finished his words, the crowd burst into an uproar. Many voices exploded and reverberated in the air above the Sword Grade Arena.
"Supreme Elder?! It's actually the Grand Elder!? "
"Although there are Supreme Elders in the 36 peaks of the Hidden Sword Peak, how can a Supreme Elder of the peak compare to a Supreme Elder of the entire Hidden Sword Sect?"
"There's only a single great elder in our entire Hidden Sword sect right now, and that's the Sword Venerable of the Hidden Sword. This Qing Xu is actually going to be appointed as the second great elder of our Hidden Sword sect by the Sword Venerable? Doesn't that mean that he is second only to the Sword Venerable? "
For a moment, all kinds of discussions came from the cultivators below. Everyone looked at Tsing Hui in disbelief.
Zhou Cunyu, who had just given Tsing Hui a generous gift yesterday, clenched his fist tightly. "I miscalculated. I didn't expect Tsing Hui to be the second Supreme Elder of the Hidden Sword Sect. Ancestor values him more than I thought … I don't know if he saw through my real intention yesterday … No, regardless of whether he saw through it or not, I have to find a way to repair the relationship between the two of us as soon as possible."
"Supreme Elder, Mr. Tsing Hui has actually become the Supreme Elder of the Hidden Sword Sect. Mr. Tsing Hui is the direct disciple of my younger brother. To be able to obtain his support, the development of the Divine Grace Chamber of Commerce will be smooth sailing from now on."
Su Xiao's eyes were filled with excitement. Although she had overestimated Tsing Hui's position in the Hidden Sword Venerable's heart, she had never thought that the Hidden Sword Venerable would actually appoint Tsing Hui as the Supreme Elder. One had to know that the Supreme Elder of the Hidden Sword Sect was completely different from the Supreme Elders of other sects. In the other sects, the Supreme Elder and the Supreme Elder jointly ruled the sect. In the Hidden Sword Sect, the Supreme Elder was completely above the Sect Leader and the Supreme Elder's Association.
At this moment, Tsing Hui could also hear the weight of the Supreme Elder of the Hidden Sword Sect from the discussions of the crowd. He quickly said to the Hidden Sword Venerable, "Sword Venerable, just give me the position of an ordinary Elder. A Supreme Elder is on the same level as Sword Venerable. I don't deserve it."
"What? In these two years, we've always been on the same level. I'm a Supreme Elder, and you're a Supreme Elder too. If I just give you the title of an Elder, what's the point? Plus, you promised me that you'll be the Supreme Elder of the Hidden Sword Sect and help me look after the Hidden Sword Sect. "
Tsing Hui couldn't help but smile bitterly. "I thought that the Hidden Sword Sect would also have a Supreme Elder's Association. I didn't expect that the entire Hidden Sword Sect would only have one Supreme Elder, Sword Venerable … This weight …"
"Haha, if you really feel that you don't deserve the position of Supreme Elder, then you should pay more attention to the Hidden Sword Sect."
The Hidden Sword Venerable laughed loudly.
Xiao Liuying and Duan Jianfeng's eyes widened in shock when they saw that the Hidden Sword Venerable was actually forcing Tsing Hui to be the Supreme Elder of the Hidden Sword Sect. On the contrary, Tsing Hui seemed to be unwilling.
They couldn't believe what their Master was doing.
However, the Hidden Sword Venerable didn't explain …
Other than himself, no one knew the real reason why he was being so nice to Tsing Hui …
This was related to the biggest secret of the Hidden Sword Sect.
Unless he was about to die, he wouldn't tell anyone this secret.
"Sword Venerable, you should know that I can't stay in the Hidden Sword Sect for long …"
"Every day counts."
The Hidden Sword Venerable said with a smile.
Seeing this, what else could Qing Xu say? He could only nod.
"From today onwards, Tsing Hui will be the second Supreme Elder of the Hidden Sword Sect. He will enjoy all the rights of a Supreme Elder!"
As the Hidden Sword Venerable said this, the powerful aura on his body appeared once again, suppressing everyone present.
At this moment, many peak masters and elders were unhappy with the Hidden Sword Venerable's decision. However, they had to lower their heads. "Yes, Grandmaster."
"After that … Let's talk about the question that everyone is most concerned about."
As the Hidden Sword Venerable said, he paused slightly, "I've been in secluded cultivation recently, so I'm unable to make a detailed judgement regarding the rights and wrongs of the thirty-six peaks of our Hidden Sword Peak. With only three days, it would be irresponsible of the Hidden Sword Sect to make any rash decisions. As a result, I plan on handing over the task of investigating the thirty-six peaks of our Hidden Sword Sect to the great elder of the Qing Xu Ruins. The investigation will take at least three to four months, and at most half a year. At that time, I will follow the great elder's suggestion and reorganize the thirty-six peaks of the Hidden Sword Sect. Those who have done well will be rewarded, and those who have done wrong will be punished. I will never wrong any loyal disciple of the Hidden Sword Sect, nor will I tolerate anyone who threatens the interests of our Hidden Sword Sect."
