The strong enemy was at the gate of the city, the headquarters of the Ancient God was in danger, and the whole sect could only be at the mercy of others.
Although Clan Leader Woo Longsha did not seem to have the intention to kill, that was because he disdained to make things difficult for those with lower cultivation.
If it were a bloodthirsty person, the headquarters of the Ancient God would have suffered heavy casualties today.
What's more, Woo Longsha did not mean to kill. If he really destroyed the headquarters of the Ancient God and buried some of the followers of the Ancient God alive, he would not take it to heart.
For the people of the Ancient God, this feeling of only waiting for death and struggling was naturally terrible.
What was even more desperate was that the former pillar, the leader of the sect, Jiang Yi, had never appeared today.
Her whereabouts were unknown, and no one knew what had happened to the Hierarch.
Although it was not to the extent of resentment, most people were inevitably disappointed and panicked.
Just as everyone was in despair, someone else turned the tide and defeated the leader of the Barbarian Tribe.
Most of the sect members were excited and bowed to the figure under the Golden Parasol Tree.
The tsunami-like cheers swept across the headquarters of the Ancient God.
Not only Elder Gao and others who had already turned to Chen Luoyang were cheering, but Du Qiming, who was practicing his footwork, also solemnly bowed to Chen Luoyang after a short silence.
Tang Yiming closed his eyes.
The people around were cheering, "Welcome back the Hierarch."
It was no longer "Hierarch Chen," or even "Hierarch Chen," but only "Hierarch."
Tang Yiming knew that the people of Chen Luoyang's faction sometimes called Chen Luoyang that in private, in the Demon God Palace.
Especially the few old members that the other party had brought up from the Divine Land of the Ancient God.
But that was only in private.
In public, on formal occasions, there was only one Hierarch, and that was Jiang Yi.
But now, the tsunami-like cheers around were not for Jiang Yi.
The "Hierarch" they mentioned was now Chen Luoyang.
Once upon a time, Chief Tang had fantasized about having such a glorious moment in the future. However, everything had already faded away.
Just as he was feeling bitter, someone beside him suddenly shouted, "Welcome back to the mountain, Hierarch."
Tang Yiming shuddered. He turned around and saw the head of the Rosefinch Hall, Hong Biao, kneeling before Chen Luoyang. His posture was even lower than Lian Buyi's and Du Qiming's.
Elder Peng Feng looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh. Without saying a word, he bowed to Chen Luoyang in the distance.
Tang Yiming remained silent and did the same thing as his master.
Under the Golden Parasol Tree, Chen Luoyang's expression was calm. He did not seem to mind the scene of tens of thousands of people submitting to him. After looking around, he calmly ordered, "Although the Crouching Dragon Sand in the Savage Wilderness has retreated, the situation is still not stable. I'll have to trouble Elder Du to patrol the area and pacify the people."
Hearing this, Du Qiming replied, "I will do as you say."
Chen Luoyang then said to Zhang Tianheng, "The Crouching Dragon Sand has caused a ruckus at the headquarters. There are some damages. Fix it quickly."
"Yes!" Zhang Tianheng said respectfully, "I will do as the Hierarch says."
Chen Luoyang nodded slightly. "The rest of you, follow me to the Sacred Palace for a meeting."
With that, he led the way.
Du Qiming, Peng Feng, Lian Buyi, Tang Yiming, and the others all took a deep breath.
The Sacred Palace and the Demonic God Palace had always been under the direct command of the Ancient God's Hierarch.
After handing the Demonic God Palace over to Deputy Hierarch Chen, the Sacred Palace still belonged to Hierarch Jiang Yi.
The Ancient God's higher-ups usually met with the Hierarch at the Sacred Palace.
Hierarch Jiang Yi would sometimes directly hold a meeting at the Sacred Palace to issue orders.
The symbolic meaning of Chen Luoyang summoning everyone at the Sacred Palace at this moment was too obvious …
This young man finally revealed his fangs and wanted to replace Hierarch Jiang.
At this moment, most people in the church had no objection to Chen Luoyang's decision.
In today's battle, Hierarch Jiang had disappointed them, but Hierarch Chen had turned the tide.
At least at this moment, Hierarch Chen's prestige was really above Hierarch Jiang's.
Tang Yiming and Peng Feng looked at each other.
Right now, Chen Luoyang was at the peak of his power.
Even if Jiang Yi appeared immediately, he might not be able to turn the situation around.
Perhaps there would be hope after today's excitement subsided and everyone calmed down.
But the premise was that Jiang Yi had to return first.
And if Jiang Yi did not appear, everyone in the Ancient God could only submit to Chen Luoyang.
There was another problem that people did not want to think about. Even if Jiang Yi returned and wanted to expel Chen Luoyang by force, could he do it?
Before this, people firmly believed that Cult Master Jiang could still control the situation in the cult. It was just that he was afraid of hurting the innocent or had other plans. As long as he cast aside his concerns, he could cut the Gordian knot and eliminate the hidden danger brought by Chen Luoyang.
Although Chen Luoyang could kill the 18th level Canglan Tie, it was a completely different matter when facing a powerhouse.
But after today's battle, everyone's thoughts changed.
Even the King of the Barbarian Tribe, Crouching Dragon Sand, who was more famous than Jiang Yi, could not do anything to Chen Luoyang and had to retreat pathetically …
Peng Feng and Tang Yiming had solemn expressions, but they did not dare to disobey Chen Luoyang's orders and could only follow everyone to the Sacred Palace.
The other disciples of the Ancient God were all excited at this moment.
After surviving a calamity, everyone was able to relax.
Other than the admiration they had for Hierarch Chen, the focus of everyone's discussion was on the Golden Parasol Tree.
"Is that what the Hierarch got from the Innate Tomb? The Innate Tomb is so magical, I have never heard of it before. "
"That array formation is even stronger than our original mountain guarding array formation!"
"Although that is true, it still feels a little weird, as if the Xian Tian Palace's array formation was moved to our side …"
"How can you say that? We are the true inheritor of Sovereign Xi, the fact that the Hierarch could tame the Golden Parasol Tree is the proof. "
"Don't flatter yourself. We are all on the same side, and we all know that compared to the Xian Tian Palace's Innate Dao Scripture, our cult's [Fuxi Heaven Changing Scripture] is slightly inferior. The stronger one is the 'Fuxi' in the blood of the gods and demons. However, this fist art has always been missing in our cult, and it has only appeared today in Cult Master Chen's hands …"
The crowd discussed as they entered the Sacred Palace.
Chen Luoyang entered the palace, walked up the stairs and walked towards the Hierarch's throne.
When the crowd saw this, they all quieted down and held their breath.
Chen Luoyang came to the front of the throne.
Without any hesitation, he turned around and sat down naturally.
The breathing of the people in the palace became rapid.
Chen Luoyang looked down and said calmly, "Now, who can tell me what happened to Senior Jiang?"
Everyone held their breath again.
The palace was silent.
After a long time, Lian Buyi broke the silence and said, "The situation was critical before, we were forced to break the closed-door training ground, but there was no one inside, no one knows what happened."
Chen Luoyang glanced at the crowd.
Some of the loyal Hierarch Jiang lowered their heads.
Tu Shanyi and the others were also shocked, because none of them knew what happened to their Hierarch Jiang and where he went.
Before the Hierarch disappeared, he did not say anything to anyone, causing everyone to be at a loss.
Taking ten thousand steps back, even if the Sect Leader met with an accident during his closed-door cultivation and fell into Qi Deviation, a dignified Martial Venerable should have left behind his body.
If the body was also destroyed, it would have caused a huge commotion, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that the whole altar was blown up.
Now, no one could see him, no one could see his body, and everyone was confused.
"Senior Jiang's whereabouts are unknown, but our Church is in a great crisis, and we almost fell into the hands of the strong enemy."
At this time, Elder Gao stepped out and said calmly, "Thanks to the Hierarch's timely return, he turned the tide, defeated the enemy, and our Church's foundation is safe.
Without a leader, there will be disaster. I think that now, the Hierarch should take the position and take charge of the Church, and then slowly look for Senior Jiang. "
The palace suddenly became quiet again.
Elder Gao's words made everything clear.
He was one of the Elders in the Ancient God, second only to Elder Zheng, Elder Du, Elder Peng, and Elder He of the 18th realm.
Even in the main hall, only Lian Buyi and Peng Feng were more powerful than him in terms of battle strength.
At this moment, his earth-shattering words carried great weight, making it impossible for anyone to ignore them.
Jiang Yi's disappearance and Chen Luoyang's great victory in defeating the Barbarian Tribe's leader caused the majority to support Elder Gao.
The silence in the palace only lasted for a moment.
In the next moment, people stepped out and agreed with Elder Gao's suggestion.
"There is no need to talk about turning the tide. Today, Woo Long Sha came because I killed his Canglan Steel. He stood up for Canglan Steel, so I should take care of him." Chen Luoyang said calmly, "After coming out from the Innate Tomb, there were some things that needed to be sorted out, so I came back late and let Woo Long Sha show off."
When he said this, the people below could only say that they did not protect the Sect well enough and that the Hierarch had to run around.
"I thought that with Senior Jiang around, we could make Woo Long Sha stay. I didn't expect Senior Jiang to disappear." Chen Luoyang lightly tapped on the armrest of his chair, "From now on, the entire Sect will search for Senior Jiang's whereabouts. If you find anything, report back immediately."
Hearing this, the people below replied in unison, "Yes, we will obey your orders."
"Start from the main altar, inside and out, check if there are any abnormalities." Chen Luoyang ordered, "Senior Jiang's disappearance may not have been his wish. Before the truth is known, do not criticize him."
Hearing this, the people in the palace willingly submitted, "Yes, we will obey your orders."
"Senior Jiang is the 24th Hierarch of the Sect. We must know the truth about his whereabouts."
Chen Luoyang stopped tapping on the armrest, "However, the truth will not affect his abdication today."
He stood up from his seat.
The people below all felt suffocated, as if they were facing a Divine Mountain rising from the ground.
"From today onwards, I am the 25th Hierarch of the Sect." Chen Luoyang said calmly.
Inside the palace, Su Wei, Xie Buxiu, Elder Gao, and the others were the first to kneel, "All hail the Hierarch!"
More and more people knelt down, including Hong Biao.
After a moment of silence, Lian Buyi also knelt down, "All hail the Hierarch."
Peng Feng, Tang Yiming, and the others were extremely eye-catching in the crowd.
Finally, they knelt down as well.
Inside the Sacred Palace, only Chen Luoyang was left standing.
