The truth was just as Tu De had said. For the past two days, he had been persuading the three Senior Uncles to appoint Gu Qingfeng as the Crown Prince. He had also clearly explained how powerful Gu Qingfeng was. Unfortunately, it was useless. The three Senior Elders were afraid of the wolf in front and the tiger behind. Jin De was the wolf, while the Jiuhua Alliance was the tiger.
The 100-year period was coming soon. At that time, the Jiuhua Alliance would definitely try their best to annex Yunxia School.
Therefore, the position of Crown Prince was extremely important. If Jin De was appointed, the family and gang behind Jin De might be able to compete with the Jiuhua Alliance. Even if they could not compete, at least they would not lose too badly. However, if they appointed Jin De as the Crown Prince, Yunxia School would almost be destroyed. They would not be able to establish themselves in the Qingyang Region in the future. The key was that there was still the Jiuhua Alliance above them.
In the three Senior Elders' opinion, if they wanted to protect Yunxia School, they could either rely on the Jiuhua Alliance or choose Jin De to compete with the Jiuhua Alliance.
At this moment, Zhenren Yunhe was sitting in a quiet room.
"Senior Uncle, although I have given away some of the Spirit Vein resources of the school these years, it was also for the sake of Yunxia School …"
As Jin De was speaking, Zhenren Yunhe interrupted him and asked, "Let's not talk about unnecessary nonsense. Let me ask you now. If we were to appoint you as the Crown Prince, how would you compete with the Jiuhua Alliance?"
"Senior Uncle." Jin De was very respectful towards Zhenren Yunhe and said, "There are more than a hundred Deacon Elders of Yunxia School and twenty-four gangs that listen to my orders. The Six Great Clans and the Ten Great Clans of Qingyang all support me. The Six Great Clans and the Ten Great Clans are all experts … There are the Li Clan of the Wind Shadow, the Wang Clan of the Black Lava Clan … the River Clan, the Lotus Clan …"
Immortal Yunhe nodded as he listened. He had been in the Qingyang Territory for nearly a thousand years, so he naturally knew that the Li Family of Windshadow and the Wang Family of Black Rock were famous families in the Qingyang Territory. Although the top ten factions did not have many masters, they had the advantage of numbers.
Jin De smiled and said, "Other than that, Martial Uncle, your old friends, Senior Hong Xuan, and Senior Nan Ji will also stand on my side …"
"Oh?" Zhenren Yunhe's eyes flashed with surprise as he asked, "Really?"
"There is no falsehood."
"Not only that."
Jin De said again. Zhenren Yunhe asked, "What do you mean?"
"Now that the hundred-year period is coming, Yunxia School was not the one who signed the contract with the Jiuhua Alliance. And it is not only us who want to terminate the contract with Yunxia School. For example, the Flying Cloud Sect, Gui Yi Sect, and so on are also worried that they will be annexed by the Jiuhua Alliance once the hundred-year period is up. They have been waiting and watching. If we stand out to fight against the Jiuhua Alliance, I believe that the other sects will definitely not stand by and watch."
"That's right."
Zhenren Yunhe stroked his long beard and nodded. There was a slight smile on his face as he said, "Three days later, can you invite all of them here?"
"I should be able to."
"Good!"
At the same time, in another quiet room.
One of the three elders of Yunxia School, Immortal Yunzheng, was talking with Shui De.
"Martial Uncle, Master Wei of the Jiuhua Alliance said that if Yunxia School is willing to submit to them, not only will we be able to enjoy the same treatment as before, but they will also help us become the biggest sect in the Qing-yang region."
Immortal Yunzheng had cultivated for thousands of years and naturally knew that once he submitted to the alliance, many things would be out of his control.
"Master Wei also said that … if we don't submit …"
"What will happen if we don't submit?"
"They will completely flatten Yunxia School!"
Hearing this, Immortal Yunzheng was furious and shouted, "How dare they!"
Shui De still had a fake smile on his face as if he did not care about his Martial Uncle's anger at all. He replied, "Martial Uncle, I won't talk nonsense with you. I'll tell you directly what Master Wei said. Master Wei's meaning is very clear. Now that the 100-year period is coming, many sects in the Qing-yang region are watching and our Yunxia School is a typical example. If we submit, he will help our Yunxia School become the biggest sect in the Qing-yang region. If we don't submit, he will flatten our Yunxia School as an example to others!"
Immortal Yunzheng was extremely angry, but he did not know what to say because he knew that the Jiuhua Alliance had the strength to do so. This was also the problem he had been most worried about. After a while, he sighed and said, "Three days later, we will appoint the Crown Prince. You can do as you see fit."
Shui De nodded and then left.
At the foot of the Flaming Sun Peak.
Jin De and Shui De came out one after another. After a long while, Rende came out. Rende did not look very good either.
Huo De hurried over and asked, "Senior Brother, why did the three elders call you?"
"Three days later, they appointed the Crown Prince and asked me to be in charge of this matter." Rende frowned and said, "The three elders also asked me to inform the entire Qing-yang region about this matter and gave me a list of invited guests."
Huo De looked at the list. Almost all the people on it were the leaders of the major sects, gangs, and families. It was no exaggeration to say that almost all the famous people in the Qing-yang region were on the list.
"The three elders invited so many outsiders to the banquet. They want to appoint Huo De's people as the Crown Prince."
"It's possible, but not absolute. The three elders also invited people from the Jiuhua Alliance." Rende recalled what the three elders said to him. After pondering for a moment, he said, "I think the three elders want to …" He looked around and then secretly transmitted his voice, "I think the three elders want to act according to the circumstances and let Jin De come forward. If they succeed, they will appoint Jin De's people. If they fail, the three elders may join the Jiuhua Alliance."
"These three old farts are too f * cking beautiful!" Huo De sneered, "They know how to stay out of it. No! I have to talk to them! "
As he spoke, Huo De directly jumped to the peak and stepped through the stone door. The three elders were discussing something inside. When they saw Huo De, they reprimanded, "Huo De, what are you doing here!"
"Martial Uncles, I …"
Before Huo De could speak, he was interrupted by Zhenren Yunhe, "If you want the three of us to appoint that guy surnamed Gu as the Crown Prince, you don't have to say it."
"Why?"
Huo De said, "Martial Uncles, please listen to me. I can guarantee that Little Guy Gu definitely has the strength to help Yunxia School stand up again!"
"Strength? What strength? " Zhenren Yunhe replied indifferently, "If we appoint him as the Crown Prince, we will offend Jin De. Jin De has so many families behind him. If we offend him, Yunxia School will suffer a great loss. We will not be able to establish ourselves in Qingyang Region in the future."
"Little Guy Gu is not an ordinary person! He can recover these losses. Since he can do what he says, he won't care about the Jiuhua Alliance either! "
Yunhe and the other two shook their heads and seemed to be a little impatient.
"He is …" Huo De gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it. I'll ask Little Guy Gu to come here. You guys can see his strength with your own eyes. How about that?"
"There's no need to see him, and we don't want to see him." Zhenren Yunhe waved his hand and interrupted, "We don't know how strong he is, and we don't want to know. Even if he is a genius among geniuses and a dragon among men, he can't compete with the Jiuhua Alliance, let alone the fact that he has failed to build his foundation. He is just one person after all, and his strength is weak. Even if he is a reincarnated person, it won't be of any help. He will only implicate Yunxia School."
Huo De wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Zhenren Yunhe immediately shouted angrily.
"Enough! Huo De! When are you going to stop? You protected that guy surnamed Gu and crippled Mu De. We haven't punished you yet, so don't be ungrateful! Get out! "
Whether it was Zhenren Yunhe or the other two old men, they didn't seem to like Huo De very much. It wasn't because Huo De was unreliable, but because Huo De knew about their scandal.
"Huo De, if you don't want to help, then go back and study your formation. Don't blindly get involved."
"Our Yunxia School doesn't expect you to help, but don't implicate the school. Otherwise, don't blame us for punishing you!"
"Punishing me?" Huo De's face turned red. He glared at them and shouted, "You three old bastards have long disliked me, haven't you? Are you afraid that I will tell you the scandal? You want to kill me? "
"Huo De! You're courting death! "
The scandal of that year was a shadow that the Three Elders Of Yunxia could never erase in their hearts. At this moment, when they heard Huo De shout so loudly, Zhenren Yunhe suddenly waved his whisk, and a surge of spiritual power condensed. Huo De groaned and was shaken away.
