Conferring an Elder
Qin Xiao looked over. The one sitting on the highest throne was the Desolate Land Palace Lord. Qin Xiao was naturally familiar with this person.
Below the Desolate Land Palace Lord sat two people. On the left was a cold-faced Ruler that Qin Xiao didn't recognize. The aura emanating from him was truly terrifying and powerful. It was obvious that he was above Master Qingye.
Even though he didn't recognize him, Qin Xiao could roughly guess the general situation based on the seating arrangement.
"This is Ruler Crimsonbright, the Vice Palace Lord of our Desolate Land God Palace. He and the Palace Lord are life and death brothers. They grew up together and established the Desolate Land God Palace together." Master Qingye's voice suddenly rang out in Qin Xiao's ears.
Qin Xiao was shocked. He had never heard of this before.
The Desolate Land God Palace actually had a Vice Palace Lord who was life and death brothers with the Palace Lord. This meant that he was someone who had lived from the previous era.
"Greetings, Ruler Crimsonbright!" Qin Xiao immediately bowed.
Ruler Crimsonbright's expression didn't change much. However, he looked at Qin Xiao with some interest and nodded slightly.
There was no need to introduce the person sitting across from Ruler Crimsonbright. Qin Xiao had seen him twice before. It was Lord Huayang.
Qin Xiao was secretly shocked. He had long known that Lord Huayang was extremely powerful. He wasn't someone that ordinary Rulers could compare to. However, Qin Xiao hadn't expected Lord Huayang to be so powerful that he could compare to Ruler Crimsonbright. The fact that Lord Huayang was able to sit across from Ruler Crimsonbright was enough to show his status in the Desolate Land God Palace.
"This is the Sky River Patriarch!"
"This is Great Sea Daolord."
Hegemon Greenleaf introduced Qin Xiao one by one, allowing her to get to know each of the Elders.
Other than Lord Huayang, Qin Xiao knew Emperor Haotian, Barren Sword Ruler, and Glorious Emperor Ruler. There was another powerful figure who was among the Elders. He was called Sage.
This was the first time Qin Xiao had heard of the Sage King. As a mighty figure, he was not even on the Celestial Roll, but now he was among the elders. This clearly showed that his strength had reached the level of a ruler. He should be a controller.
Master Qingye confirmed that. Sage was Ruler was was indeed a Ruler of the Sword Way of the Sword. He hadn't been cultivating for that long; he was just a bit older than Hegemon Greenleaf.
However, he had always kept a low profile, so no one knew about him.
Sage Sage was the Ruler was was was was Crimsonbright. was Was Sage was Was Ruler Crimsonbright was? was Was Ruler Was Ruler Crimsonbright? Sage had been cultivating in the forbidden area of the Desolate Land God Palace since he was born. Even the disciples of the Desolate Land God Palace didn't know of Sage's existence.
However, the thing that surprised Qin Xiao the most was that he actually saw an old acquaintance, Villa Lord Yao, in the Elder Seats.
"Villa Lord Yao, you …" Qin Xiao didn't know how to react.
Villa Lord Yao smiled and looked at Qin Xiao. "What, are you surprised?"
"Of course I'm surprised." Qin Xiao pursed his lips. How could he not be surprised?
Qin Xiao had known Villa Lord Yao for more than 300,000 years. Villa Lord Yao was Qin Xiao's benefactor, Talent Scout. Villa Lord Yao's kindness was engraved in Qin Xiao's heart.
If it wasn't for Villa Lord Yao, Qin Xiao didn't think he could have achieved what he had today. Even if he could have achieved what he had today, he would have had to take many detours and it wouldn't have been so smooth.
The strength of the Villa Master Yao that Qin Xiao knew was very ordinary. He was only at the level of a powerful being that was far from being on the Heaven Roll.
Moreover, Villa Lord Yao's performance in the Desolate Land God Palace was very ordinary. He also mingled well with the others.
But Villa Lord Yao was also an Elder?
There was only one explanation for this, and that was that Villa Lord Yao had been hiding his true strength all this time. He had made the outside world think that Villa Lord Yao was just an ordinary almighty who had been lucky enough to become Sovereign Yao's disciple.
In fact, there were many voices of doubt about Villa Lord Yao. They all thought that Villa Lord Yao was just lucky. With his talent and potential, what right did he have to become the Sovereign's personal disciple?
But now Qin Xiao understood that it was all because Villa Lord Yao had been hiding his strength. Villa Lord Yao was worthy of his title as the Sovereign's personal disciple.
"Haha, if I was really like what the outside world said, how could I face my master?" Villa Lord Yao laughed.
Qin Xiao nodded his head. That was indeed the case.
In truth, he'd already noticed that Hegemon Brightsun was extremely fond of Villa Lord Yao.
With a smile, Qin Xiao quickly felt relieved.
Villa Lord Yao had probably been hiding his strength because of Sovereign Yao Huang's intentions. But speaking of which, Villa Lord Yao had always been very low-key. He was suitable for such things.
Sacred Lands indeed had to hide part of their strength. Otherwise, once the calamity broke out, it would be bad.
The reason why the forces of the other universe didn't dare to launch an all-out attack on the Realm of the Gods was because they didn't know how much strength the Realm of the Gods had hidden.
The Desolate Land God Palace had hidden more than half of the Sovereign's fighting strength.
If that was the case, the Heavenly Court Island was probably even more unfathomable.
After getting to know each and every one of them, Qin Xiao sat down before his own throne. Naturally, his throne was at the very end. The ones closest to him were Sage, Manor Head Yao, and Ruler Green Leaf.
It was obvious that the four of them were the weakest.
Seeing the strength of the Desolate Land God Palace made Qin Xiao's emotions surge.
This was the foundation of the Desolate Land God Palace. This was where the confidence to protect the Realm of the Gods came from.
He was now standing in such a lineup.
"Alright, everyone is here. Let's begin today's meeting. There are two topics for today's meeting. The first is to appoint Qin Xiao as an elder. The second is to deal with this calamity. "On the high throne, the Desolate Land God Palace Lord spoke.
"Qin Xiao!" The Desolate Land God Palace Lord's gaze fell on Qin Xiao. Qin Xiao hurriedly stood up and bowed. "My God Palace Lord!"
"Qin Xiao, in view of your strength and outstanding contributions to the Desolate Land God Palace, the elders have unanimously agreed to appoint you as the Nineteenth Elder of the Desolate Land God Palace. From today onwards, you will have the authority of an elder. You will be able to mobilize the power of the Desolate Land God Palace and access the resources of the Desolate Land God Palace. "
"But at the same time, the burden on your shoulders will also be heavier. You will have more responsibilities and obligations to protect the Desolate Land God Palace and the Realm of the Gods." The Desolate Land God Palace Lord's loud voice rang out again.
Qin Xiao's face was serious. "Thank you for your kindness, My God Palace Lord and all the elders. Qin Xiao is truly in awe and trepidation. However, I, Qin Xiao, will naturally not shirk from such a great responsibility. I will definitely shoulder this heavy burden. "
"Extraordinary times require extraordinary treatment. I will use my blood and life to protect the Desolate Land God Palace and the Realm of the Gods."
"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. I will not run away from this responsibility, nor will I shrink back."
The Desolate Land God Palace Lord nodded approvingly. "That's right. This is the responsibility a man should have. In the face of the greater good, we cannot shrink back. "
The Desolate Land God Palace Lord waved his hand, and several treasures flew out and landed in Qin Xiao's hands. "Qin Xiao, here is a holy relic, some other treasures, and your identity medallion. These things are not very valuable, and you have no use for them. However, this is the treatment you deserve after becoming an elder, so I can't give you less. "
"You can deal with them as you wish. Take them."
The Desolate Land God Palace Lord's bestowal of treasures was not cheap. They were enough to tempt even a Ruler.
However, to Qin Xiao, they were nothing. After all, he had two Universe treasures. Why would he care about a holy relic?
A holy relic was no longer of any use to him.
However, since they were bestowed by the God Palace Lord, Qin Xiao could only accept them.
The conferring ceremony was very simple. The Desolate Land God Palace Lord announced it on the spot, and then announced it to the world.
After the ceremony, they discussed the calamity. Everyone expressed their opinions and came up with some strategies.
For now, the main focus was to organize the various forces to fight for the War of Fortune.
Naturally, these tasks did not require the elders to do it themselves. They only needed to give instructions, and the various powerhouses would preside over them.
The Desolate Land Army also gathered and made preparations.
After the ceremony, Qin Xiao and Villa Lord Yao walked together.
"Villa Lord Yao, you really tricked me." Qin Xiao smiled bitterly.
Villa Head Yao smiled somewhat happily: "To be able to deceive such a smart person like you, that is something worth showing off. Haha, but I can't blame you for this. I was prepared to hide my strength from the beginning. Not only did you not know, but even Xuelian and her mother did not know. "
"I've always been wearing a mask, deceiving my own husband and daughter. You won't understand the pain I've gone through."
Qin Xiao nodded. Although he had never experienced such a thing, he could imagine that it was indeed very painful.
It was indeed painful to deceive one's dearest and most loved people.
Thus, it could be said that Villa Master Yao had indeed suffered inhumane pain all these years. He had hidden for ten billion years, a hundred billion years, or even tens of millions of years.
For countless years, he had been hiding himself and wearing a mask. Without an extremely strong willpower, it was impossible to do so.
It would be fine if he did not show his face like the Sage.
However, Villa Lord Yao had been dealing with people.
His original body had been in the Desolate Land God Palace, mingling with everyone. His clone had been in the Yao Family Manor.
It was indeed too difficult for Villa Lord Yao to be so strong after dealing with people all the time.
Thinking of this, Qin Xiao was relieved. He even could not help but laugh.
"See, you were just criticizing me, but now you are gloating." Villa Lord Yao said.
Qin Xiao stopped laughing and said, "Take it as some compensation."
"You …" Villa Lord Yao was speechless for a while. He shook his head and patted Qin Xiao's shoulder. "I think you should go back to Jiuzhou City. Xuelian has been staying in Jiuzhou City and refuses to leave. Alas, as a father, I am a failure. I have been in pain for so many years, but it can't be compared to your face. "
Qin Xiao pursed his lips hard. He really did not know what to say about Yao Xuelian.
