"Master … Great Elder … You guys … Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"
Qin Yi still hadn't recovered from the shock, and even his speech seemed to be somewhat incoherent.
Bai Hua couldn't help but roll his eyes and snappily said, "How could you make a mistake in such a matter?"
Without a doubt, both Bai Hua and Bai He were indeed trying to push Qin Yi onto the throne of Yin-Yang Academy's Palace Master.
When Qin Yi heard this, he hurriedly shook his head and said, "Master, Great Elder, this disciple has never been an elder before. What's more, this is to become the Palace Master of the academy! This disciple doesn't have the ability, nor the qualifications, to become the Palace Master. "
Bai He waved his hand and said, "Age and qualifications are not a problem. The previous Palace Lord of the academy was promoted from a disciple to the position of Palace Lord at your age. "
Qin Yi forcefully shook his head, trying to keep his expression from being too exaggerated.
He really didn't expect that the academy actually had a tradition of letting a younger generation become the Palace Master.
At this time, Qin Yi clearly noticed that when the previous Palace Master was mentioned, Bai Hua's expression had a very obvious change. Even his mood had suddenly become a lot lower.
"Could it be that the previous Palace Master had a close relationship with Master?"
Qin Yi began to use his imagination, trying hard to restore the truth of the matter.
From the moment he came to Yin-Yang Academy, he already knew that the previous Palace Master had been missing for more than a hundred years, and it had always been unknown whether he was dead or alive.
It was precisely because he didn't know whether the previous Palace Master was dead or alive that the position of Palace Master had always been empty.
Even Bai He, who had already reached the position of Great Elder of the academy, had always maintained his original status, never overstepping it in the slightest.
Just now, he heard them say that the academy's treasure had always been the Palace Master's token. In other words, the previous Palace Master was already dead.
And that nameless grave next to Uncle Zhao's residence was very likely the grave of the previous Palace Master.
According to this conjecture, the previous Palace Master and his master Baihua should have had a rather deep relationship.
It was even possible that the previous Palace Master of the Education Palace was also Bai Hua's disciple.
Of course, all of this was just Qin Yi's own speculation. Moreover, there were many details that he did not know. For example, the relationship between Uncle Zhao and the academy, as well as the relationship between him and the previous Palace Lord. Also, why did the previous Palace Master mysteriously disappear, and in the end, why did he die in a foreign land?
There was no way to know all of this.
Therefore, as long as all of this was not verified, it would always be his guess, a simple deduction.
Most importantly, seeing his master in such a state, it was clear that the matter regarding the previous palace master was a source of pain for him.
Although Qin Yi was curious, he couldn't expose his master's scars. If his master wanted to tell him, he would naturally tell him.
Fortunately, Bai Hua wasn't an overly emotional person. The gloomy expression only lingered on his face for a short moment before he suppressed it. When he raised his head again, the expression on his face had already returned to normal.
Then, he looked at Qin Yi and said, "Are you worried that assuming the position of Palace Master, you won't have the freedom to cultivate?"
Qin Yi nodded and said, "This is indeed one of the reasons why disciple is worried. What I said before is also what I'm worried about. Also, Master, you should know that disciple's ambition isn't here. If I were to leave in the future, the Education Palace would once again fall into an awkward situation without a leader. "
Bai Hua fell into deep thought. After a moment, he said, "What you've said is indeed a problem. However, Master Bai He and I don't want to use these things to tie you to Yin-Yang Academy. What we need is the influence you can bring to others. "
"You should also be able to see that the Education Palace is currently entering an incomparably important period of transition. During this period, there is a possibility that the Education Palace will rise again. There is also a possibility that it will never be able to recover from this setback and become a speck of dust in the history of the Yunhai Empire. "
"At a time like this, we need someone who can stand up and lead everyone in the academy. We need to unite as one and fight for the academy's future!"
As he spoke, even Bai Hua found it difficult to restrain himself, and his emotions became agitated. He took a step forward and placed his hands on Qin Yi's shoulders.
Qin Yi asked, "Master, why did you choose me?"
Bai Hua replied without hesitation, "Because this opportunity was brought to us by you!"
Qin Yi frowned, "Me?"
Bai Hua said, "That's right! Ever since you arrived at the Education Palace, you have never stopped bringing surprises to us. Today, Luo Wuji's setback is a very good opportunity! When the disciples of the Education Palace find out about this, they will definitely be in high spirits. Their fighting spirit that has not been ignited for a long time will be ignited once again. This opportunity was created by you! Naturally, it should be continued by you! "
Qin Yi hesitated and stammered, "Master … I …"
Bai Hua seemed to realize that he was a little emotional and hurriedly put his hands down from Qin Yi's shoulders, "You don't need to give me an answer now. Becoming the next Palace Master is an important matter. Whether it is you or the two of us, we all need to seriously consider it. "
Qin Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Alright, disciple will consider it carefully."
Bai Hua nodded slightly and said, "However, regardless of whether you agree to become the Palace Master or not, you must accept this storage ring today. This is not my decision, nor is it Bai He's decision, but the decision of the treasure itself. "
Qin Yi sighed, knowing that he had no reason and need to refuse now. He had no choice but to put the storage ring away.
But he still couldn't help but ask curiously, "What is inside?"
Bai Hua chuckled and said, "It is better to discover a secret yourself. You don't need to worry, you can open it when you return. Next, we have an important matter to discuss. "
"What is it?"
"Bai He, you tell him."
Bai He nodded and took a step forward, saying, "Qin Yi, are you confident that you can break through in three days?"
Qin Yi said, "This disciple cannot guarantee anything. Does Great Elder have any instructions?"
Bai He said, "It's like this. In three days, an important guest will come to our Yin-Yang Academy. Her identity is special and cannot be lost. Therefore, we want to find a reliable disciple to be in charge of receiving this guest. "
