When facing Chu Yuansheng, Chu Xiu did not use much of his spiritual power. He only used his spiritual power to guide Chu Yuansheng's inner emotions.
If Chu Yuansheng really did not have any obsession with the position of Torture Hall Master, it would be useless no matter how Chu Xiu guided him.
But on the contrary, what Chu Xiu triggered was the desire and inner demons in Chu Yuansheng's heart!
Chu Yuansheng looked at Chu Xiu in confusion, "The position of Hall Master should be mine?"
Chu Xiu nodded and said with a serious face, "Of course it should be yours. Brother Chu, think about it carefully. If it wasn't for Lord Chu Kuangge, how could there be the Guanzhong Torture Room now? You are Lord Chu Kuangge's only son. Is it wrong to pass the Guanzhong Torture Room to you in the future? "
Chu Yuansheng said dejectedly, "I was too useless, so father passed the position of Hall Master to Hall Master Guan in the end."
Chu Xiu bowed towards Chu Kuangge's coffin and said, "It is precisely because Lord Chu Kuangge is impartial and impartial that he did this. Hallmaster Guan did not disappoint Lord Chu Kuangge's great trust and developed the Guanzhong Disciplinary Hall to this state.
But now? Hall Master Guan is dead. In the entire Guanzhong Torture Room, no one can take this position. Only you, Brother Chu, are different.
You are Lord Chu Kuangge's only son. You have status and status. Now that the Guanzhong Torture Room has no leader, besides you, who else is qualified to take the position of Hall Master? "
Chu Xiu's words constantly aroused the desire in Chu Yuansheng's heart. The fire in his heart that had long been extinguished and his dream of becoming the Hall Master of the Guanzhong Torture Room seemed to be so close to him for the first time.
However, although Chu Yuansheng was affected by the Mental Demon Rotation Technique, the Mental Demon Rotation Technique only affected his thoughts. It would not really turn him into an idiotic puppet that did not know how to think.
Chu Yuansheng was still a little hesitant, "But if I become the Hall Master, how can I convince others? After all, my strength is right there, and I can't even compare to an inspector. "
Chu Xiu waved his hand and said, "Brother Chu, you don't have to worry about this. You are my big brother and your wife is Hall Master Guan's widow. We will all stand on your side. No one in the entire Guanzhong Torture Room will dare to oppose you! As long as Brother Chu agrees, during tomorrow's meeting, I will use my power to help you become the Hall Master! "
Seeing that Chu Yuansheng was still a little hesitant, Chu Xiu's voice sounded faintly in Chu Yuansheng's ears, "Brother Chu, Lord Chu Kuangge's coffin is here. His spirit in heaven is also watching.
As a father, all want their children to be successful. Who doesn't want their children to succeed?
Lord Chu Kuangge must have the same thoughts, but he died accidentally in the hands of Divine Lord Luo. You are still young, so only Hall Master Guan can inherit this position. Lord Chu Kuangge did it for the good of the entire Guanzhong Torture Room.
But now, no one is fighting with you for this position. Who else but you can be the Hall Master of the Guanzhong Torture Room? Don't you want to let Lord Chu Kuangge's spirit in heaven see that one day, his son has finally inherited his father's legacy and sat in this position? "
Chu Xiu's last sentence finally crushed Chu Yuansheng's state of mind. He seemed to have thought something through and let out a long sigh. He looked straight at Chu Xiu and said, "I promised you, but I hope that this time, you won't lie to me."
Chu Xiu revealed a smile at the corner of his mouth and said, "Brother Chu, don't worry. I can lie to anyone, but not to you."
Patting Chu Yuansheng who was still a little distracted, Chu Xiu directly turned around and walked out of the Chu family's mansion with Tang Ya.
Tang Ya said from behind Chu Xiu, "My lord, you are now supporting Chu Yuansheng to become the Hall Master. What if he stays in this position for too long and develops some other thoughts?"
Chu Xiu said lightly, "He won't. My Brother Chu is actually a very tactful person. This time, if I didn't provoke the desire in his heart, he wouldn't have agreed to take over the Hall Master position.
The most important thing is that my Brother Chu's ability is really limited. Even if he really wants to, he doesn't have the strength.
No matter what, the Guanzhong Torture Room can only be considered to have a foothold in Jianghu since Chu Kuangge's generation. It's not bad to let it return to the Chu family's hands.
Of course, it will only return to the Chu family's hands in name. As long as we can actually control the Guanzhong Torture Room, then there won't be a problem. "
Tang Ya nodded. What Chu Xiu said was right. With Chu Yuansheng's ability and shrewdness, even if he had other thoughts, he would be powerless.
The next morning, the meeting in the Guanzhong Torture Room had already begun.
The other three Disciplinary Officers, as well as Si Ming and the other leaders of the Punishment Department, had already arrived. Among them was Guan Siyu's disciple, Yuchi.
Although Yuchi's strength couldn't be compared to the others, he was Guan Siyu's personal disciple, after all. In this kind of situation, he had a certain degree of authority.
The meeting hall was dead silent. No one communicated, and no one dared to say anything unnecessary.
Because the situation was already clear. If Chu Xiu wanted to become the Hall Master, they couldn't stop him. Whoever stopped him would die.
However, being unable to stop him didn't mean that they had no other way.
If Chu Xiu insisted on becoming the Hall Master, then the entire Guanzhong Torture Room would definitely fall apart. At that time, at worst, they could just leave. They couldn't afford to offend him, but couldn't they just hide? Their subordinates were all gone, so there was no point in them continuing to be Disciplinary Officers.
At this moment, Chu Xiu walked into the meeting hall with Chu Yuansheng.
When everyone saw that Chu Yuansheng was also there, they were all stunned, but then a look of disdain appeared in their eyes.
They all thought that Chu Yuansheng had come to support Chu Xiu and wanted to support him to become the Hall Master of the Guanzhong Torture Room.
Chu Yuansheng had a special status in the Guanzhong Torture Room. No matter how weak his strength was, he was still Chu Kuangge's only son. With this halo alone, he could obtain the respect of all the martial artists in the Guanzhong Torture Room, even if it was only on the surface.
However, at the moment, he wanted to support Chu Xiu, a criminal from the Demonic Path who had plotted to seize the position of the Guanzhong Torture Room Hall Master. This was a bit too degrading, and it was simply a disgrace to Lord Chu Kuangge.
However, the next scene made everyone's jaws drop.
Chu Xiu did not sit on the main seat, but helped Chu Yuansheng to sit on the main seat. He stood at the side and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, the Guanzhong Torture Room has suffered a great change, but it cannot be without a leader.
Right now, in the Guanzhong Torture Room, there are very few people who are qualified to take the position of Hall Master.
As the only son of Lord Chu Kuangge, Chu Yuansheng has both prestige and status. I recommend him to be the Hall Master of the Guanzhong Torture Room Hall Master. Does anyone have any objections? "
Everyone present looked at each other with surprise in their eyes. No one thought that Chu Xiu would actually make Chu Yuansheng the Hall Master. Could it be done like this?
However, no one present made a sound, because they did not know whether they should agree or not.
As the only son of Lord Chu Kuangge, Chu Yuansheng had this status, but as for prestige, at least everyone present knew what kind of person Chu Yuansheng was. He had no prestige at all.
Everyone respected him only because they respected Lord Chu Kuangge, and it had nothing to do with Chu Yuansheng himself.
Moreover, now that Chu Xiu had personally supported Chu Yuansheng to become the Hall Master, even an idiot could guess that Chu Yuansheng was just a puppet, and the real mastermind behind the scenes was still Chu Xiu.
However, if they did not agree, with Chu Yuansheng's status, wouldn't it mean that they were disrespecting Lord Chu Kuangge?
This move of Chu Xiu's was truly ingenious. It was simply putting them in a dilemma. Thus, remaining silent was the best choice.
At this time, Chu Xiu suddenly sneered at Yin Botong and said, "Lord Yin, I know you and I have a grudge before, and now I'm afraid you don't want me to stay in the Guanzhong Torture Room anymore. But the grudge can be solved later. Now, when the Guanzhong Torture Room is in chaos, you sent someone out of the city to contact the Eastern Qi imperial court. Fang Sha sold the Guanzhong Torture Room once, and you plan to sell it again? "
Seeing that Chu Xiu suddenly pointed the spearhead at him, Yin Botong hurriedly shouted, "Nonsense! I didn't! "
It was true that Yin Botong had a grudge against Chu Xiu, but it was precisely because of this that he had to be even more careful and low-key at this time, for fear that Chu Xiu would notice him.
At this critical time, the Guanzhong Torture Room was leaderless, and Chu Xiu was in charge. Outside the Guanzhong City, there was a group of Dragon Riders Imperial Guards and Chu Xiu's subordinates guarding. Even if he had lost his mind, he would not play dirty tricks in the dark at this time to court death.
Chu Xiu snorted coldly and said, "You're a traitor, and you still dare to quibble!"
As his voice fell, Chu Xiu did not give Yin Botong a chance to continue to argue. With a wave of his hand, he exerted the Devil Blood Technique to the extreme. In an instant, all the blood in Yin Botong's body was boiling, his blood vessels burst, and streams of blood were forcibly sucked out of Yin Botong's body.
In shock, Yin Botong was just about to use his Stellar Energy to suppress it, but he saw the Stellar Energy that was sucked out of his body actually condense into the shape of a scimitar. In an instant, his protective Stellar Energy was broken, and his head was directly cut off!
Two soft thuds were heard.
Yin Botong's body and head fell to the ground together.
Chu Xiu stood behind Chu Yuansheng and looked at the crowd, saying in a deep voice, "Now, does everyone agree that Chu Yuansheng will be the new Hall Master of the Guanzhong Torture Room?"
After a moment of silence, Chu Simo was the first to stand up, and he cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Hall Master!"
Among the people present, Chu Simo was the closest to Chu Xiu because of his disciple Chu Xiaode, and he had spoken up for Chu Xiu before.
Most importantly, he was greatly indebted to Chu Kuangge. Now that Chu Yuansheng had taken over the position of Hall Master of the Guanzhong Torture Room, he was willing to agree even if he knew that Chu Xiu was the real mastermind behind the Guanzhong Torture Room.
When the others saw this, they could only stand up helplessly, and they cupped their hands and bowed to Chu Yuansheng, saying, "Greetings, Hall Master!"
At this moment, they were bowing, but no one knew if they were bowing to Chu Yuansheng, or to Chu Xiu, who was standing behind Chu Yuansheng.
But that was no longer important. What was important was that they had already submitted.
Of course, they could choose not to submit. After all, Yin Botong's body was still lying on the ground.
Although even they did not know if Yin Botong had done anything, it was obvious that the price of disobedience was death.
