Li Yijie continued, "What Shifu gave us was more love than our biological parents. He was very tolerant of us, naughty children who didn't know any better. He urged us to practice martial arts because he hoped that we wouldn't follow in his footsteps. Because our martial arts weren't good enough, we weren't able to protect the people most important to us. But he never told us of these earnest expectations. Yes, at that age, we only thought that everything was new and interesting. We didn't understand the many sufferings in life. At that time, we didn't know any better. When we saw Shifu's eyes, we only complained that he was too strict. We never thought that our Shifu, who we looked up to like a high mountain in front of us, actually had so many unspeakable pains in his heart. Yes, even if we told him, we wouldn't be able to get Shuniang back. At the same time, he didn't want those dirty things to affect our mood. Now I only regret that when Shifu was alive, I didn't take care of him in time and made him angry. I thought that I could make decisions independently and didn't even want to listen to Shifu. Why is it that when he passes away and we recall his past, we feel such heart-wrenching pain … "
When the remaining disciples of Huashan heard his words, many of them had tears in their eyes. The younger ones had already burst into tears. They wiped their tears with their sleeves and choked, "Shixiong, don't say anymore! Wuwu … please don't say anymore. " Crying has always been contagious. When Li Yijie and Nangong Xue thought about the tragic death of this strict and loving father, and the fact that this person would no longer exist in this world, they were overcome with grief and began to cry as well.
The original Zhuangzhu felt extremely unnatural. After enduring for a while, he still tried to persuade them, "Yijie, Brother Meng didn't sacrifice his life to earn a few more tears from you. He definitely didn't want you to give up on yourself because of his death. The war in the future may be even more tragic. But no matter how difficult the future is, we have to face it. "
Li Yijie shook his head in fear. He wished that he could find a hole to crawl into and bury himself deep in it to escape the painful truth.
Ever since he raised the flag and declared that he was hostile to Jiang Liechen, he had always been at a disadvantage. But Jiang Liechen's casual talk and laughter had already crushed everything he cared about into fine powder. In this uneven battle, his friends were constantly sacrificed. One by one, they left his side. Now, even his master was no longer with him. With a trembling voice, he said, "I … I'm sorry, Hero Yuan … forgive me. I'm afraid I can't … fight against him anymore. I don't want to see death again and again. If the purpose of defeating him is to give happiness to the people I cherish, but if they're gone, then what's the point of doing all this? After going through all this, I'm really disheartened and can't continue. I just want to withdraw from the Wulin world with Xueer and live a peaceful life … I'm sorry. "
The original Manor Lord was enraged when he heard this and scolded, "I really don't know how your brain is made! Could it be that just because you don't want to see death, you can get what you want? If you don't get rid of the Seven Fiends brat, the deaths will never stop. The pain you've suffered today will be repeated every day! How could he be so narrow-minded? Killing him won't bring the dead back to life, but it will allow more people to live in peace and happiness! That brat wants to seek revenge. Do you think that if you withdraw from the Wulin world, he will let you go? At that time, I'm afraid you'll be chased to the ends of the earth and will never have a day of peace! As a man, you should stand up with your head held high and face your responsibilities! Running away is the behavior of a coward! A year ago, when I saw you, you didn't hesitate to fight with the Seven Fiends brat in order to save your junior sister. You disregarded life and death and challenged me! At that time, how much more confident would you be compared to now? At that time, I admired your fearless courage and was finally moved by you. That's why I agreed to help you. If you had cried and cried from the beginning, not only would I not have looked at you, I would have immediately ordered people to throw you out! Li Yijie, show me some of your usual vigor! Can you do it? "
After he finished speaking, he took a few deep breaths and said, "Think about it carefully! As the saying goes, a country can't go a day without a ruler, and Mount Hua can't go a day without a leader. After Brother Meng's memorial ceremony, who will be the next Sect Leader? Does anyone in Mount Hua have a suitable candidate to recommend? "
The disciples looked at each other. Facing the furious Village Master, they didn't dare to answer rashly. Moreover, the succession of Mount Hua's Sect Leader would undoubtedly push them into the heart of the struggle. The disciples were in great danger and no one was willing to put themselves in danger.
In the end, it was Nangong Xue who said softly, "When Master was still alive, he favored Senior Martial Brother Li the most. His words often revealed that he wanted to pass the position of Sect Leader to Senior Martial Brother Li. In order to comply with Master's wishes, in our Mount Hua, in terms of martial arts and knowledge, Senior Martial Brother Li is definitely the most knowledgeable. Therefore, in my opinion, Senior Martial Brother Li should be the next Sect Leader. "
The Village Master was resentful that Li Yijie didn't live up to his expectations. He glanced at the rest of the disciples and asked, "Are you all supporting this useless brat? Are there no objections? "The disciples didn't dare to answer, but they also didn't dare to deny it. They all remained silent and tacitly agreed. The Village Master sighed and said, "As a Master, you don't have the ability to grow. You've taught a bunch of cowardly disciples! Brother Meng, if you know this in the underworld, you'll be so angry that you'll come back to life. "
Li Yijie seemed to have woken up from a dream. He was shocked and said, "No, no, no, I … I don't have the ability to be the Sect Leader of Mount Hua. Junior Martial Brothers, please find someone better … I really don't have the ability to do this … "
The Village Master sneered and said, "What ability? At least you've been the Wulin Alliance for seven years. Can't you manage a small Mount Hua Sect? " Li Yijie was still waving his hands. He said, "The Mount Hua Sect's prosperity in recent years is all because of Master's life's work … and also because of the contributions of the previous Sect Leaders and the founder of the Sect. I'm powerless. If by any chance this foundation is destroyed in my hands, I'll be ashamed to face my ancestors …"
The Village Master interrupted him, "Wait a minute. You said that you don't have enough mental strength to succeed the Sect Leader position. I'm afraid you'll destroy Mount Hua's foundation. Then let me ask you something. If you knew you wouldn't be able to succeed, why did you participate in the Heroes Assembly? Why did you fight for the Wulin Alliance's position? Don't think that you'll be able to withdraw so easily just because you've taken all the advantages! Could it be that in your eyes, the Wulin Alliance's Wulin Alliance is less important than the Sect Leader of Mount Hua? I don't know if you think too highly of Mount Hua, or you think too highly of the various sects in the small Wulin Alliance? If each of them spit on you, it'll be enough to drown you. "
He paused for a moment. His tone softened a bit. He patted Li Yijie's shoulder and said, "Since you've become the Wulin Alliance, then you'll have to do your best! Not everyone is qualified to enjoy this special honor. Sitting on the Wulin Alliance's great position, you'll inevitably have to bear some responsibilities. Even if you don't want to, you'll have to face it with force. Although this position is imposing, compared to ordinary people, it'll be a lot more difficult. You can't rush to the front when you see the benefits, but when you encounter a little difficulty, you'll hide at the back, right? "
With a bitter smile Li Yijie said, "Yes, you're right. But in the Wulin Alliance, you can't rush to the front just because you're hot-blooded. You'll have to think more about the situation. Recently I've often thought that perhaps I was wrong to oppose him from the beginning. By provoking that kind of opponent, I'll only bring disaster to myself; I won't have the slightest bit of glory. He used to say that he resented me. Why did I force him to this point? I made him have no way out … You're right. Maybe I pushed him too hard. Think about it. At that time, the woman he loved the most had died. Even before she died, she still harbored hatred toward him. I also forced him to kill the brother he cared about the most with his own hands. I destroyed the Sacrifice Shadow Sect that he grew up in. I've indeed forced him to a dead end. It's not unreasonable for him to hate me so much. Isn't this the same as destroying the dream he relied on to live? Isn't his current madness of killing everything a manifestation of his mental breakdown? Is it because of this that once he obtains enough power, he'll pay back the pain he suffered tenfold, a hundredfold? "
The original Manor Lord coldly said, "Our standpoints are different. We're both fighting for ourselves. What's wrong with that? It's clearly that brat who can't afford to lose, so he came to pester endlessly. At that time, he suffered a series of defeats. The impact was indeed a bit heavy, but it wasn't enough to cause him to collapse. He brought all of this upon himself. If his dream is to kill and destroy, should we also approve of him achieving it? "
Nangong Xue seconded, "That's right. His most common phrase is' the winner is the king. 'But there are no rules. This phrase can only be used on him. Since he's useless now, and you didn't play any tricks. You defeated him fair and square. Why does he have to pretend to be the victim and beg for justice? This person is already beyond redemption. Could it be that his unreasonable psychological attacks have really affected you? It's his own stubbornness that caused his madness today. No one should be responsible for this. "
The original Manor Lord nodded his head and said, "I agree with what you've said. Yijie, look at you. You're a dignified man. You're also the Wulin Alliance Leader and the new Sect Leader of the Huashan Sect. How can your wisdom and knowledge be inferior to a little girl?"
