"Chen … Vice Hierarch?"
Tang Hao, Tang Gengming, and the others looked at each other. For a moment, they were all speechless and could not speak for a long time.
In the history of the Ancient God, there had never been a Vice Hierarch.
Chen Luoyang could be regarded as the first one in history.
Tang Yiming said that it was unprecedented in the history of the Ancient God of the Secular World. It was appropriate to add a new stroke today.
However, the fact that Chen Luoyang was the first to eat crabs still surprised everyone.
Although they all knew that Chen Luoyang's strength was not ordinary, and was not comparable to the ordinary fifteenth realm Emperor Wu, there were many strong people in the Ancient God, and there were more than one or two Martial Saints.
There were also people with cultivation strength above the sixteenth realm in the headquarters of the Ancient God of the Secular World.
In terms of strength and achievements, what Chen Luoyang could do, it did not mean that others could not do, and there were people who did better than him.
But before, Jiang Yi had never made an exception for anyone and put him in the position of Vice Hierarch.
Although Jiang Yi had a high prestige in the Ancient God of the Secular World, and his words carried weight, and many things could be decided with one word, it was still incredible to put Emperor Wu above the many Martial Saints.
No one would accept it.
Jiang Yi needed to use his own prestige to support Chen Luoyang, so that he could suppress the voices below.
To a certain extent, this was the prestige that belonged to Jiang Yi, and not some newly appointed Deputy Sect Master.
This kind of thing, while people were not convinced, more felt that it was incredible.
Why did Hierarch Jiang Yi insist on doing this?
He did not even go through the Alliance of Gods and Demons, and directly used his own authority to make the decision.
"In charge of the Demonic God Palace …" Tang Hao sighed, "With this arrangement of the Hierarch, the so-called Vice Hierarch is not a nominal position."
Vice Hierarch sounded prestigious, under one person and above tens of thousands.
But the problem was that any position with the word "Vice" in front of it could become nominal.
Whether or not one could truly grasp real power and play a role, apart from one's own ability, also depended on the ability and willingness of the official above one's head.
If Chen Luoyang had only taken on the title of Deputy Hierarch, many people would have gritted their teeth and accepted it, even though it would still be difficult for them to accept it.
Anyway, the other party did not have any real power. For the sake of the Hierarch, it was not a big deal for him to address the other party as "Deputy Hierarch". If he really wanted to ignore him, the other party could not do anything to him.
However, Jiang Yi arranging for Chen Luoyang to take charge of the Demonic God Palace was a clear signal that the so-called Vice Hierarch was not an empty title, but had real power.
It was true that most of the people in the Demonic God Palace only focused on practicing martial arts and didn't take on any specific tasks. However, the Demonic God Palace itself had extraordinary significance.
All the high-level experts of the Ancient God of the Mortal World had come from the Demonic God Palace.
Only by entering the Demonic God Palace could one hope to learn the best skills of the Ancient God. Conversely, in the future, it was possible to take on a position of real power, ascend to a high-level position, and even compete for the position of the next Hierarch.
And the person in charge of the Demonic God Palace had always been Hierarch Jiang Yi himself.
He was also responsible for teaching the disciples in the palace. Often, a few casual words of advice would already benefit people a lot.
Now, Chen Luoyang had been parachuted into this position. Could he bear this responsibility?
Everyone present looked at each other, and then at each other.
Unexpectedly, everyone remembered that Chen Luoyang had mastered many Divine Martial Demonic Fist fist techniques that were missing from the headquarters of the Mortal World.
Was it because of this that Hierarch Jiang Yi made such an arrangement?
Tang Hao's haggard old face was full of seriousness as he shook his head gently.
Jiang Yi must have considered this aspect, but it was not the only reason.
If Chen Luoyang took charge of the Demonic God Palace, he might have to take out some real skills, but conversely, he might be able to get more.
Taking charge of the Demonic God Palace meant that he could also freely read the top secret books of the Ancient God in the mortal world.
Chen Luoyang might not need the blood of the Demonic God, which was the most important thing.
But the Ancient God did not only have one set of blood of the Demonic God. For example, the Great Art of Stealing the Sun had always been as famous as the blood of the Demonic God.
And just like the secret books of the Big Dipper Heavenly Magnetic True Dipper in the Southern Chu Dynasty, the library of the Ancient God was equally precious. It contained many powerful skills, and even divine skills that were difficult to cultivate and even extinct in the mortal world.
It was uncertain how much Chen Luoyang would pay.
But what he could get was already foreseeably plentiful.
From Hierarch Jiang Yi's action of arranging for Chen Luoyang to enter the Demonic God Palace, it fully reflected two problems.
One was trust, directly arranging the Demonic God Palace, which used to be completely under Jiang Yi's control, to Chen Luoyang.
Now it depended on the specific follow-up situation, and whether Chen Luoyang could rely on his own ability to stand firm in the Demonic God Palace, the place where the top young and vigorous experts of the Ancient God gathered.
The second was that Jiang Yi thought very highly of Chen Luoyang.
The most powerful elder in the Senior Chamber, second only to the Hierarch, did not become the Deputy Hierarch.
The disciple that Jiang Yi herself admired the most in the past also did not become the Deputy Hierarch.
In the end, it was this kid from the mortal world who rose to the heavens in a single step?
Tang Gengming muttered in a low voice, "Even his own son did not receive such good treatment, this is simply …"
Just like how the father and son of the royal family were heartless, the most difficult person to establish a relationship with his father was the Crown Prince. It was impossible to count on Jiang Yi to take the initiative to abdicate. In the current situation, it could indeed be said that this was the biggest concession that Jiang Yi could give.
Tang Gengming did not finish his words, but everyone could guess the content of the latter half of the sentence that he did not dare to say.
Because all of them had the same thought.
Even his own son did not receive such good treatment, this was simply like the father of the Hierarch …
"He has the help of the Lord of Azure Dragon Island and the North Sea Sword Master, and is valued by the Hierarch so much. Could it be that he really …" Someone wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
In the mortal world, there might only be two people who could have such a deterrent effect on people in the past thousand years.
One of them was Heavenly Devil Ye. Now it was said that the Western Qin Emperor was cultivated by him, so it seemed that it was not impossible to cultivate another Chen Luoyang.
However, he left behind a bad reputation and became the public enemy of the mortal world. Although the Ancient God was counted as a devil, among the experts in the mortal world who besieged Heavenly Devil Ye, there was also Jiang Yi, the Hierarch of the Ancient God.
In addition to Heavenly Devil Ye, there was only …
In the quiet room, a group of people looked at each other in silence.
Tang Yi said clearly, "In short, for now, don't take the initiative to provoke him."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Tang Yiming said to his brother Tang Gengming, "Let Xin Ming come back."
"Yes, big brother," Tang Gengming said clearly.
"Then who will fill the vacancy of the chief monk of the Rosefinch Hall in the end?" Tang Hao asked.
"I'm not sure at the moment," Tang Yi said clearly, "but it is most likely to be one of the two people in the Demon God Palace."
"No matter who stays in the Demon God Palace, in the face of the current situation, he will not be a quiet master." Tang Hao stroked his white beard and said, "Let's wait and see."
…
What Chen Luoyang was thinking at the moment was actually …
He did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Because when he heard the title "Deputy Hierarch", the first impression that came to his mind was that of a certain big shot with an embroidery needle.
Of course, he knew that Hierarch Jiang Yi could not mean that, but for a moment, he did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Is this a way of reminding me not to think about usurping the throne?
Jiang Yi's arrangement was slightly beyond Chen Luoyang's expectation.
It even made him a little vigilant.
The other party had accurately grasped some of his psychological dynamics.
If he was a Hierarch for a day, he would be a Hierarch for a lifetime.
Even if he did not hold any real position, he would not be "demoted" to the level of the four temple chiefs and the left and right messengers.
Everyone knew that the first temple chief of the Red Dust Sect was completely different from the first temple chief of the branch of the Ancient God in the Divine Land.
But for Chen Luoyang, it was a line that he insisted on not moving.
This included a test of the Ancient God's headquarters.
But now Jiang Yi suddenly came up with such a move.
It should be said that it was in line with Chen Luoyang's expectations.
The position was respected, but it was not a purely nominal position. Jiang Yi's style was indeed extraordinary.
Chen Luoyang was not sure whether this was the same habit as Bluestar.
Generally, when the subordinates called the deputy leader, except for those who deliberately found fault, they would not use the word "deputy".
Even if it was a deputy, it would still become "Liu Ke", "Director Wang", "Director Zhao", "Director Li", and so on.
If the situation here was the same, then in most people's minds, he would still be "Hierarch Chen", not "Deputy Hierarch Chen".
It was hard to say how they would talk behind his back, but at least when they met face to face, except for those who deliberately provoked him, no one would add the word "deputy" in front of "Hierarch".
In addition to putting him in this position, Jiang Yi's strong support was enough to let many people in the middle continue to speculate about the relationship between the two sides, and at the same time to establish the prestige of Chen Luoyang.
Jiang Yi abided by the rules of the "Demon Lord" and did not mention the specific details of Chen Luoyang.
His actions made it hard for everyone to believe him. While they felt that it was unimaginable, it also reminded some people in disguise.
Either Jiang Yi had encountered something abnormal, or this Chen Luoyang was far from ordinary, for such an abnormal action to occur.
Everyone in the Church of Ancient God was suspicious, and before they had any ideas, they had to think about it first.
Chen Luoyang knew that this also included Jiang Yi's protection of Lin Yan, the first seat of Blue Dragon Hall.
At this moment, Lin Yan was still grounded to reflect on his mistakes.
Jiang Yi did not let him come to Chen Luoyang to inform him in person, but told him to inform him later.
Lin Yan was his pro-disciple, and Jiang Yi obviously still had the intention to protect him.
For Chen Luoyang's generous conditions, he more or less hoped that the two sides would turn hostility into friendship, and hoped that Chen Luoyang would not pursue it.
Of course, when Chen Luoyang sat in the position of the deputy Hierarch of the Church of Ancient God in the mortal world, those who knew his relationship with the "Demon Lord" would inevitably have some doubts in their hearts when they looked at the Ancient God.
Although Jiang Yi's generous gift was heavy, Chen Luoyang's return gift was not light either.
Chen Luoyang did not comment on this, but just found Xie Chong, the First Elder of the Ancient God in his Divine Land, and ordered him to return to the Divine Land and guard the Divine Land with Su Ye. He also arranged for Su Wei and other people to come to the mortal world later.
Because now, he was going to the capital of the Western Qin Dynasty.
