IMMORTAL MARTIAL GOD

Chapter 203 Haoran Hall



Chapter 203 Haoran Hall

Haoran Sect was a very large force. It had its own business field in the secular world, and also had its own strong interpersonal relationships in the military and government.

Many Haoran Sect disciples would choose to leave the sect when they were strong. Some would set up their own sect and become the overlord of one side, while others would enter the military and become the generals of the other side. Although these people were no longer nominally from the Haoran Sect, they usually had close relations with the Haoran Sect and had frequent dealings with them.

This was the reason why some military missions that were not convenient for them to interfere could be sent directly to the Haoran Sect.

In the 1,500 years since the founding of the Haoran Sect, it had been like a huge tree. The site of Haotian City was only an appearance of it being exposed outside the "surface of the earth," but in reality, there were veins that stretched out in all directions beneath the soil.

However, the strength of the Haoran Sect was enormous, but it was not bloated because it knew how to "delegate power". To maintain such a large sect force, it was impossible to do so with just one word.

Therefore, Sect Leader Haoran wisely gave up his rights and gave it to the "Hao Ran Palace". It could be said that every major decision of the Hao Ran Sect was not made by the Sect Leader, but by the elders of the Hao Ran Palace.

That was why the Heavenly Dao Old Man of the Haoran Sect did not usually stay in the sect. Only when the sect encountered serious problems, or even threatened the life and death of the sect, would the sect master directly "seize power" and use decisive and tough methods to cut the mess and save the sect and the fire.

In order to prevent this large sect from heading towards the abyss of eternal calamity because of the paranoia of some minority sects, the Nature Sect had to have more than two thirds of the elders raise their hands to pass every major resolution. Otherwise, it would be null and void.

The last time Xiang Nan came to Haoran Hall, he was divided into factions. At that time, he was only standing in the outermost building of Haoran Hall. And this time, he was truly entering Haoran Hall.

Haoran Hall was where the Board of Elders ruled on a decision. Normally, there were five third-generation elders, thirteen fourth-generation elders, and twenty-six fifth-generation elders residing in the Board of Elders. There were a total of forty-four of them.

Of course, this did not mean that there were only five third-generation elders in the Nature's Nature Sect, but that only these five people usually served on the Board of Elders.

But today, many third, fourth, and fifth generations of elders who weren't part of the elders' group had also come.

Xiang Nan stood alone in the "stand-in-trial", and opposite him was a row of high seats. Those from the Board of Elders sat on the elders' seats that were ten meters tall, and they could look down at Xiang Nan from above.

At this moment, elders were whispering to each other, whispering something.

Shi Beihong was a peak Half-Saint Third Layer expert. At the same time, he was also the third generation elder. He was also the head of the Board of Elders. This person was mainly responsible for managing the daily affairs of the sect. Whether it was meeting with other sects or officials, or traveling to other continents, he was the supreme leader.

Back then, when Xiang Nan divided the factions, the old man who was responsible for promoting the sect's tenet, the Dao Bone Immortal Wind, was him.

"Xiang Nan." At this moment, Shi Beihong lightly descended from the seat of elders and walked to Xiang Nan step by step.

"Xiang Nan greets Elder Shi." Xiang Nan bowed respectfully.

Shi Beihong nodded his head and said, "What I'm going to ask you next is of great importance. You must think of a good answer and be realistic."

"Xiang Nan will obey Elder's orders." Xiang Nan said.

Shi Beihong said, "Do you have anything to do with the Heavenly Devil Religion? You need to know that the impact of this matter is very bad. Very soon, someone from Haojing will come to our sect to investigate this matter."

This was not a joke. The Haoran Sect was the number one sect in the Blue Tide Continent. If even this sect came together with the Heavenly Devil Sect, it was obvious how bad the result would be.

"I've nothing to do with it." Xiang Nan replied confidently.

"No connection?" An elder stood up and shouted, "There is no connection. The Heavenly Devil Church has come to Haotian City with so many betrothal gifts? What explanation do you have for that?"

At this time, Shi Beihong gave Xiang Nan a relieved look and said gently, "Just tell the truth. Don't be afraid."

"As long as you don't lie, the Nature Sect will stand behind you and support you, even if there is great trouble."

Xiang Nan nodded gratefully to Elder Shi Beihong and said, "Indeed, we have nothing to do with each other. As far as I am concerned, their visit this time is nothing more than an affair between a man and a woman. As for whether they have any other motives, Xiang Nan is not sure."

Shi Beihong said, "Just how did your relationship with the Heavenly Devil Sect witch come about? Speak slowly, word by word."

Xiang Nan did not dare to conceal anything, so he truthfully reported how he had accepted the mission, how he mistakenly thought that the demonic woman was a child, and how he had saved her, as well as how she had brought him back to the Haoran Sect.

"The members of the Board of Elders have already heard what happened." Shi Beihong nodded his head in satisfaction. Then, he turned to the Elder's seat and said, "I wonder what everyone has to say."

A member of the Board of Elders stood up and said, "I suggest that Xiang Nan be expelled from the sect. From now on, he will no longer be a disciple of our Haoran Sect."

"Why?" Shi Beihong asked with a smile.

The elder said, "Even if what Xiang Nan said is true, he has brought about an extremely bad influence on the sect this time. This will damage the reputation of our Haoran Sect."

Shi Beihong smiled and said, "Our Haoran Sect has never been afraid of losing its reputation. If we have to give up a sect disciple every time something like this happens, then our Haoran Sect will not be able to survive for 1,500 years."

Another elder stood up and said, "I also agree to expel Xiang Nan. He can endure the demonic woman's bewitchment today, so it's hard to guarantee that he won't turn around and join the cult tomorrow."

Shi Beihong smiled and said, "Neither you nor I have the right to judge what will happen in the future. We cannot destroy the future of a disciple just because of a single idea."

Another elder stepped forward and said, "But we don't know if Xiang Nan is hiding anything. Perhaps the truth is not as simple as he said."

At this time, Sun Peak Master Xu Caiyue, who did not belong to the elders' group, stepped forward and said, "What Xiang Nan said is true. I am willing to guarantee him with my personality."

The elder sighed, "Caiyue, you are too protective of the calf."

Xu Caiyue said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "If I didn't believe in Xiang Nan, I wouldn't have taken him as a disciple. Since I'm his master, I naturally have to speak up for him."

"We can't convict Xiang Nan based on mere speculation. If that's the case, wouldn't our Haoran Sect collapse if the Demon Sect suddenly showed goodwill to all the elders one day?"

"You?" The elder glared at Xu Caiyue angrily. He pointed at Xu Caiyue and said, "Haoran Hall, how can you be so disrespectful!"

"Caiyue's every word is true. How can you not be respectful?" Xu Caiyue fiercely asked, "Could it be that my Haoran Hall can no longer tolerate a single word of truth?"
