Chapter 28 Begging for severe punishment from the master!
Ye Hongyi ran out and came outside the hall.
"Red clothes"
A vicissitudes and hoarse voice came.
Ye Hongyi looked up suddenly.
In the sky was a hunched figure with white hair and wearing a white sect leader's robe. He sat cross-legged on the back of a blue-eyed demon mandarin duck and slowly descended.
It was the grandfather who loved her the most, the ancestor Cangming, Ye Taiyuan!
"Grandfather!"
Ye Hongyi was overjoyed and hurried to greet him.
However, the next second.
When she saw her grandfather's face clearly, her beautiful eyes froze, and she could no longer speak!
The old ancestor Cangming, who once dominated the magic world, had dim eyes and a haggard face. He looked dilapidated and decadent, like a leaf in the wind, as if he would disappear in the next second.
"Grandpa, you!"
Ye Hongyi's nose felt sore, and she rushed forward and held her grandfather's old, withered hand. "What happened to you? Why did you become so haggard?"
"Hongyi, listen carefully."
Ye Taiyuan half-closed his eyes and said in a tired voice, "Grandpa's time is coming. From now on, I can no longer protect you."
"The deadline is approaching!?"
Chewing on these four words.
Ye Hongyi's face was stunned for a few seconds. After a while, she threw herself into her grandfather's arms and burst into tears like a little girl!
"Child, you can't do this."
Ye Taiyuan raised his arm, gently stroked the ends of his granddaughter's hair, and encouraged her:
"You are a descendant of my Ye family, the future leader of the Cangming Sect. You should have an indestructible and invincible devil heart. You must not be so weak! Do you understand?"
Feeling my grandfather's increasingly weak breath.
Ye Hongyi's heart was broken. She nodded with tears in her eyes and said, "I understand, Grandpa Hongyi, don't cry! Don't cry!"
"That's a good kid."
Ye Taiyuan nodded slightly and continued,
"The immortal road is ruthless, and immortality is hard to find. Even a great immortal will eventually die. Grandfather is only a Taoist cultivator, but he managed to survive for 3,500 years. Instead, your father died before me."
Having said this, he sighed heavily, and his expression became even more bleak.
"Don't worry, Grandpa! Sooner or later, Hongyi will lead the disciples of Cangming to rebel against Tiangang and attack the Zhenwu Sword Sect to avenge my father!"
Ye Hongyi gritted her teeth.
"Really? Hehehehe."
A sly look flashed across Ye Taiyuan's eyes, and he let out a strange laugh, "If we want to accomplish this, then our little red-clothed girl must first take the position of sect leader."
"Grandpa I"
Ye Hongyi wanted to say something but was interrupted by the other party:
"Child, time is running out. Grandpa has something that I must tell you today."
Seeing her grandfather's serious expression, Ye Hongyi held back her tears, knelt down with her hands clasped, and said:
"Hongyi, listens to Grandpa's teachings!"
Ye Taiyuan said: "Do you know why Grandpa wants to hold a clan leader election meeting this time instead of using the clan leader's authority to pass the throne directly to you?"
Ye Hongyi shook her head and said, "Hongyi doesn't know; please tell me, Grandpa!"
"Red, you are different from your father."
"You are still young, your cultivation is insufficient, your foundation in the sect is shallow, and you are a girl. If Grandpa passes the throne to you directly, the four hall masters and the outer sects that are subject to our Cangming Sect will probably not be convinced."
"After I pass away, they will surely rebel and usurp the throne."
"You have to know that our demonic ways are different from righteous ones. We never pay attention to etiquette and humility. The bigger the fist, the only truth!"
"After your father passed away suddenly, disputes immediately broke out inside and outside the sect. It was my grandfather who used lightning-fast means to kill the two hall masters who were causing the rebellion, and only then was the situation suppressed."
"Grandpa is right, but..."
Ye Hongyi said sadly, "Hongyi is very different from Grandpa. I'm afraid he may not be able to control the situation."
"Kid, you don't have to underestimate yourself."
Ye Taiyuan patted his granddaughter's face and said with all his strength: "You have the most perfect 'Ice Crystal Jade Body' in the history of our Ye family. During the holidays, your achievements will definitely surpass mine and your father's!"
"And what you need to do now is to gain the support of the majority of the sect's high-ranking officials and supreme elders at the upcoming 'Sect Leader Election Conference'!"
Having said this, Ye Taiyuan paused and continued,
"Among the ten Supremes, six are from my Ye family. If you run for election, they will definitely support you. There is no doubt about that."
"Therefore, what you need to do is to win over the remaining Hall masters and the Supreme as much as possible."
"But."
Ye Hongyi pursed her red lips and asked weakly: "As you said, Hongyi's qualifications are shallow. My Black Moon Hall is only in the middle of the ten major halls. I... I am afraid that I can't win over those senior leaders of the older generation."
"Grandpa has already considered what you are worried about."
Ye Taiyuan looked at his granddaughter with a mysterious look: "Grandpa, let me ask you a question first. Among the four palace masters, which one do you think is easiest for you to win over and use for your own benefit?"
Ye Hongyi thought for a second and blurted out, "Of course, it's the Lord of Shura Palace, Ren Qianfan! He is the younger brother of Hongyi's deceased mother. According to the secular world, he is Hongyi's uncle! I'm sure he will help!"
"No."
Ye Taiyuan shook his head. "Palace Master Ren is a cowardly and indecisive person. He forgets his principles when he sees small profits and cherishes his life when he does big things. His personal strength is at the bottom among the four palace masters."
"What's more, everyone in the sect knows that your uncle has to obey his young and beautiful wife on all major matters, and he cannot make the decision himself."
"If you are attacked by everyone at the election meeting, he won't dare to help you if Madam gives him a look."
"Indeed."
Ye Hongyi knew that what her grandfather said was the truth. She sighed and said, "What do you think of the fierce tiger Taoist priest from the Rakshasa Palace?"
"In terms of power alone, the Luosha Palace, where he is located, is the most powerful! It has tens of thousands of elite inner sect disciples and countless vassals under its command. In addition, in recent years, it has expanded its territory, and its sphere of influence continues to expand!"
"More importantly, the spiritual stones and spiritual materials that his Luosha Hall pays to the main altar every year exceed the total of the other three halls. The elders of the main altar all admire him very much!"
"Hongyi, you are right."
Ye Taiyuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Then tell me, Master Menghu, why is he so active in doing things for the sect and honouring the elders? What is he trying to achieve?"
Hearing this, Ye Hongyi was shocked and came to her senses in an instant, "This person is ambitious!"
"Red, remember this."
Ye Taiyuan said: "The expansion and development of the sect cannot be separated from ambitious people like the Tiger Taoist. Otherwise, it will become a stagnant pool. But the premise of relying on him is——"
"You have firmly grasped the power."
"Red, I understand!"
Ye Hongyi nodded heavily and said, "If that's the case, then the only one left is the mysterious Saint Lady from the Yin Gui Palace?"
"Although the Yin Gui Palace has always been low-key and its power is far less than that of the Luosha Palace, the Palace Master Hua has already entered the middle stage of the Spiritualization Stage, and his strength is unfathomable. He once had a big fight with the Meng Gui Taoist because of an argument and easily gained the upper hand."
"No."
Ye Taiyuan shook his head and said, "Palace Master Hua is indeed a remarkable woman with extraordinary abilities. In the past, when your father was the sect master, he relied on her to manage internal affairs and revise the sect's laws and regulations, clearing away the accumulated problems of a thousand years in one fell swoop. This is how the Cangming Sect became so powerful today."
"But she can't help you with the election for the clan leader. To be exact, she won't help you."
"Why?" Ye Hongyi couldn't help but ask.
"I can't even name a specific grandfather."
Ye Taiyuan's eyes were deep: "But you have to believe that Grandpa has a keen eye that has been tempered over thousands of years. I always feel that this Palace Master Hua joined the Cangming Sect for other purposes."
"Why."
Ye Hongyi sighed softly, looking slightly disappointed, "Then, according to Grandpa, Hongyi can only rely on herself?"
"Child, Four Palace Masters, why did you miss one question?"
Ye Taiyuan said with a half-smile.
"ah?"
Ye Hongyi's delicate body trembled, and then she suddenly raised her head. Her beautiful eyes widened. "Grandpa, are you talking about Bai Qingling from Youluo Palace? How could this devil help me"?!
At this moment, the girl's heart was already filled with turbulent waves!
She could imagine any high-ranking member of the sect standing behind her.
The only person I wouldn't think of is this person!
This is a ruthless, shameless, and despicable super demon who has enslaved and humiliated Sister Lingyin for ten years!
More importantly, this guy is selfish and never participates in any sect affairs. He only cares about his immortality!
It is said that this person accepted my father's recruitment just for the sect's cultivation resources and caves!
"good."
Ye Taiyuan's expression became somewhat serious. "At this time of changing circumstances, only this young Demon Lord Qingling can protect you and stabilize the world!"
"But."
Ye Hongyi gritted her teeth and said, "My grandpa and Bai Qingling have never had any contact in the past, so how could he..."
"Kid, there will be a sect meeting soon."
Ye Taiyuan watched his precious granddaughter Furong grow up and said lovingly, "According to your father's last wish, you should become a Taoist couple with Bai Qingling and work together to strengthen our sect!"
"What!?"
Ye Hongyi was struck by lightning, took a few steps back, and almost fell to the ground!
Impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
This devil is Lingyin's master!
If I marry him, what should Lingyin call me!?
Master. Master's wife?
Oh my god!
"Grandpa! Please forgive Hongyi for being unfilial! I can never marry Bai Qingling!"
"Hongyi, Hongyi is only seventeen this year! I don't want to marry that old and ugly man! Wuuuuuu."
Suddenly, the young Black Moon Hall Master no longer cared about her image and broke down and cried on the ground!
Youluo Palace, forbidden area in the back mountain, blood kitchen.
A pretty girl with a fairy bun and wearing a light pink floral dress was pacing back and forth as if she was worried about something.
"Should I tell the master?"
"The master said that he would be in seclusion for a month until the election of the clan leader. If I disturb him rashly, I'm afraid he will be unhappy."
"But, there have been many unusual movements in the sect today. Who knows, something big might happen! We in Youluo Palace must also make preparations early."
After struggling, Cen Xing'er simply squatted down and prepared to divine on the spot and let God decide!
However, at this moment.
An indifferent voice came from the bloody kitchen:
"Xing'er, why are you looking for me?"
"Report to the master——"
Cen Xing'er made up her mind and decided to speak out: "Xing'er sent Senior Sister Lingyin back to the headquarters today and saw..."
"What did you see?" asked the voice from the blood kitchen.
"Xing'er saw that many independent cultivators of the magic path from the top families in the Eastern Region were flying towards the Rakshasa Palace! They were overwhelming, and there were thousands of them!"
"Senior Sister Lingyin told me that these people are all loyal disciples of the Tiger Taoist of the Rakshasa Hall. Maybe they are here for the next election of the Sect Leader!"
"Not only that."
Cen Xing'er recalled and said with lingering fear: "Xing'er also heard that the always low-key Yin Gui Palace has recently summoned several leaders of the vassal forces of the outer sects! I believe they also have some plans!"
Yes, although the second sister was vague and did not reveal many things to her,
she was so smart that she could clearly sense one thing.
Disaster was coming to
Cangming Sect - things were going to change!
A moment passed.
There was no response from the bloody kitchen.
The girl put her hands behind her back, looking a little frightened.
"The master has never liked to interfere in the affairs of the sect, so he will probably remain silent."
"But no matter what, at times like this, I must stay by my master's side!"
Cen Xing'er clenched her fists and spoke to herself firmly.
However, the next second.
A cold voice came:
"It doesn't matter. I will do it."
The voice was three parts arrogance, three parts coldness, and four parts indifference.
It was as if he was above the starry sky, and the heaven and earth were no longer in his sight!
"Wow, the master is so domineering!"
Hear the voice of God.
Cen Xing'er's beautiful eyes sparkled as if reflecting the starlight, and her cheeks quickly flushed!
At this time, the voice from deep inside the Blood Kitchen sounded again:
"Anything else?"
"Owner."
Cen Xing'er covered her burning face, but she couldn't help herself:
"Xing'er almost harmed her master because of Xiao Chen's instigation! So."
"I beg the master to punish Xing'er severely!"
"I go!"
In the Huanxian Pool on the second underground floor of the Blood Kitchen.
Bai Feng, who was just about to deal with the "doll sister", suddenly felt his body tremble and fell to the ground.
