The hill master had said that Zhuge Tian was not qualified to inherit the hill master's position.
Later on, everyone pressured the hill master and said good things about the young lord. Moreover, the young lord's martial arts skills were better than the hill master's and he could help Crouching Bull Mountain block a disaster. In addition, the young lord promoted the spread of the Crouching Bull Insight, which benefited everyone. Hence, no one said anything bad about the young lord. It was a matter of course for the young lord to inherit the hill master's position. No one objected to it. Even if they did, they kept their opinions to themselves under the influence of the Crouching Bull Insight.
Ever since the two elders arrived at Crouching Bull Mountain, they did not show their faces and did not interfere with the affairs of Crouching Bull Mountain. It was as if they were secluded elders who did not care about the affairs of the world. However, if anyone had any difficulties in martial arts, they would give them pointers.
They would talk about martial arts for two hours every day. All disciples could listen and ask questions.
Under their pointers, everyone's martial arts skills improved so quickly. If not, not many could truly understand the essence of the Crouching Bull Insight. After all, not all disciples of Crouching Bull Mountain were geniuses.
Therefore, everyone was extremely grateful and respectful towards these two seniors. Even Murong Chun and Xia Liyan felt grateful towards them.
If the two elders opposed the young lord to inherit the hill master's position, the young lord would be in danger. Everyone might not oppose the two elders.
The hill master was authoritative and everyone obeyed him. The two elders were not bad either, but the young lord was much worse.
Humans were prone to forgetfulness. Even without the young lord, they would not have been able to learn the Crouching Bull Insight. However, compared to being able to comprehend the Crouching Bull Insight, the two seniors still deserved more credit. It would be fine if there was no conflict between the two, but once there was, their thoughts would lean towards the two seniors who had interacted with them more and helped them more.
Chu Li used the Omniscient Mirror and saw what Murong Chun and Xia Liyan were thinking.
He furrowed his brows.
He did not expect the two Celestials to be so powerful. They had unknowingly taken control of Crouching Bull Mountain.
"No matter what, as long as I'm alive, I will not tolerate someone like you becoming the hill master. You'll be the shame of Crouching Bull Mountain. If I don't do anything, I'll be letting down my ancestors!" Zhu Ziyou said.
Chu Li shook his head. "If you can make the hill master change his mind, I have nothing to say!"
"The hill master has agreed with me." Zhu Ziyou smiled.
Chu Li smiled. "You've harmed the hill master, haven't you?"
"You — —!" Zhu Zi You's expression changed slightly as he shouted, "You're too hateful, how can you have such thoughts!"
Chu Li said calmly, "I haven't seen the hill master for a long time, and you're even making decisions for the hill master. Isn't it because the hill master isn't around, or because you're just a figurehead? Just a puppet? "
"You … You!" Zhu Ziyou pointed at Chu Li. His aura surged and there was a faint light flickering on his body.
Chu Li said, "Why, are you angry now that I've hit the nail on the head?"
As he spoke, he shook his head and said, "I came from the outside, so I know what you Celestial Beings are thinking. You are the seniors of Crouching Bull Mountain, yet you use Crouching Bull Mountain as a tool to gain merit. How infuriating!"
Zhu Ziyou narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Every word you say is sharp. No wonder you can confuse everyone with your conduct. You really have a sharp tongue!"
Chu Li extended his hand. "Seniors, you're not welcome here. Please leave!"
"Young Lord!" Murong Chun and Xia Liyan hurriedly interrupted him.
If he really chased the two seniors out, there would really be no turning back. From then on, they would become enemies. That would be a disaster for Crouching Bull Mountain. Originally, the morale was high and they wanted to attack Skyward Palace. After this incident, the morale would be greatly reduced, and the attack on Skyward Palace would be a failure.
Zhu Ziyou turned around and walked out. He said in a low voice, "I'll ask for everyone's opinion. Do you want to remove your identity as the young lord first?"
Qin Zhao followed him and shook his head without saying a word.
Ever since they entered the courtyard, Qin Zhao did not say a word. He only smiled and looked at Chu Li, as if he wanted to see through his depth and thoughts.
Chu Li, however, was very calm. The Life and Death Scripture and the Heavenly Demonic Power were combined, so he had almost no flaws. Moreover, Qin Zhao had never seen him before. As for his depth, he was also a top-notch master among Grandmasters.
However, compared to the two Celestial Beings, he was still a notch lower.
Chu Li sneered. "Let's see what everyone has to say!"
It was impossible to remove his identity as the young lord. Everyone might be hesitant about whether he could become the hill master. After all, he had a bad record. However, becoming the young lord was not a problem. After all, the hill master was Zhuge Feng.
Everyone respected the hill master, Zhuge Feng. He was dignified enough to protect Zhuge Tian to become the young lord.
"Then let's wait and see!" Zhu Ziyou scoffed and walked away in big strides.
Qin Zhao left with him.
Chu Li stared at the door with a gloomy face.
Murong Chun and Xia Liyan sighed.
Xia Liyan frowned. "The two elders have indeed overstepped their boundaries. The hill master's position is not up to them to decide!"
He was in favor of Chu Li becoming the hill master.
Murong Chun sighed. "This is inevitable. However, I believe that after they get to know each other and know how great the young lord is, they will change their minds."
Xia Liyan glared at him in dissatisfaction.
Chu Li said, "Then let's see how they make a fuss. The two elders do not have to participate."
"This …" Xia Liyan frowned.
Murong Chun said, "The key is still the hill master. As long as the hill master can handle it, they will not be able to do anything."
"Yes, I will meet him as soon as possible," Chu Li said.
"We will depart in three days," Xia Liyan said. "I will make some arrangements. We will depart as soon as possible."
Chu Li nodded.
"Bang!" As they were talking, the courtyard door was slammed open.
Qiao San stumbled into the courtyard. Blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
"Qiao San!" Chu Li scoffed. He crossed ten meters in one step and helped him sit up. Chu Li sat behind him on the green brick floor and placed his palms on his back to channel.
Spiritual energy was already flowing into him. The Cloud Slashing Power's inner energy was quickly devouring the Celestial Palm energy.
Qiao San's pale face slowly regained its color. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "Young lord."
Chu Li scoffed. "Don't talk. Close your eyes and channel!"
Qiao San could only endure it. He closed his eyes and channeled his inner energy.
Murong Chun and Xia Liyan looked at Qiao San in surprise.
Qiao San's status was slightly superior. He was originally the hill master's wife's personal scribe, and he later served the young lord. Compared to the other disciples of the Crouching Bull Mountain, his relationship with the hill master was closer. Even if the others did not care about him, they still had to show him some respect.
Up until now, no one had attacked Qiao San. Yet, he was so heavily injured.
Chu Li's face was as dark as steel. His green robe fluttered even though there was no wind.
After fifteen minutes, Chu Li slowly retracted his palms. His face was gloomy.
"Young lord, who hurt Qiao San?" Murong Chun and Xia Liyan asked.
"I didn't hurt him. I wanted to kill him. If he didn't have an escape skill, he would be dead by now!" Chu Li said coldly.
"Who has such a deep grudge against Qiao San?" Murong Chun and Xia Liyan were surprised.
Chu Li laughed coldly. "Elders, you should have guessed it!"
