Chapter 95.2 Everyone Supports Me To Start A Business (2/2)
“The first condition is already…..!” Chen Tianyuan frowned.
Astral Infant Stage!Where to find someone with this cultivation?
“Sect Lord,” Another disciple suggested, “Eldest apprentice-brother has already reached the pinnacle level of the Golden Core Stage; it’s only a matter of time before he reaches the Astral Infant Stage. East Wolf Hall cannot remain leaderless another day. I propose that our eldest apprentice-brother succeeds as the East Wolf Hall Lord!”
“Eldest apprentice-brother is one of She Miejue’s disciples. She Miejue became a demon… How can he take over the Hall Lord’s position?” another disciple objected, “I think that Second senior apprentice-brother should take over as East Wolf Hall Lord. His cultivation is on par with our eldest apprentice-brother’s!”
“I support our eldest apprentice-brother!”
“I support our second apprentice-brother!”
………………………………
…………………..
……….
The surrounding disciples shouted their preferences at once. Although Tie Liuyun was part of South Wolf Hall, he could still vie for the position.
No one had reached the Astral Infant Stage, so they set aside the first condition to become Hall Lord. Each had their own preferences.
Chen Tianyuan pondered over the arguments made by both sides with a frown.
Then Tie Liuyun stepped forward and suggested, “Sect Lord, special rules apply for special times. Let’s put aside the first condition since no one has reached the Astral Infant Stage. The East Wolf Hall Lord cannot be decided by power or social status. I feel that we should put more emphasis on the character!”
“Character?” Everyone looked at Tie Liuyun, showing surprise.
“That’s right. Haven’t we learned anything from She Miejue’s incident?” Tie Liuyun continued, “Although we cannot find anyone to match the East Wolf Hall Lord’s power requirement, we can at least choose someone that stands out due to having a virtuous character. My recommendation is Wang Ke! Junior brother Wang!”
“What?” Chen Tianyuan was stunned by the suggestion.
Wang Ke, Zhang Zhengdao, and Murong Luguang turned their eyes toward Tie Liuyun.
The latter explained himself further, “I love the work I do in the South Wolf Hall. I recognize that I’m not fit to fulfill the duty of the East Wolf Hall Lord, which is why I recommended junior brother Wang. Although some junior brothers might misunderstand him, I, Tie Liuyun, am willing to guarantee Wang Ke’s character with my life! He is definitely trustworthy! In the entire Heavenly Wolf Sect, junior brother Wang Ke is the only one I concede to! I promise you, if an unfortunate day arrives when each and every one of us are demonized, junior brother Wang Ke would stay true. That is why I say to all those who support me, please join me as we support Wang Ke together. Please!” Tie Liuyun bowed after putting forth his plea.
Chen Tianyuan: “………………!”
Murong Luguang: “…………………!”
Zhang Zhengdao: “……………………….!”
Those who returned from the Divine Dragon Island also bowed and pleaded, “Us too! Please believe in Second senior apprentice-brother. We vouch for junior brother Wang Ke’s character with our very lives!”
The situation felt like a voting campaign. It took but an instant for Wang Ke to somehow be recommended to become a candidate for the East Wolf Hall Lord position. Not only that, he had the support of half of the disciples.
The scene was incomprehensible for Chen Tianyuan. Even Zhang Zhengdao was cursing in his heart. What the hell! Murong Luguang felt as though he had eaten a dead rat.
Damn it. This is so strange!
“Wang Ke is just an Innate Stage cultivator. He’s unfit for the position!” someone objected.
But then another defended Wang Ke, “He is virtuous in character; a role model of the righteous sect!”
“Wang Ke?” Chen Tianyuan looked at his disciple with an awkward look.
This disciple of mine has yet to spend much time in the sect… How is it that so many people are supporting him to become the East Wolf Hall Lord?
Wang Ke felt hesitant as he saw the passionate crowd. This second senior apprentice-brother is too supportive!I’m not even ready for it, yet you’re pushing me up the seat to become the boss?
“Revered Teacher, seeing how passionate my senior apprentice-brothers are… If it’s okay, I can give it a try!” Wang Ke nodded.
Zhang Zhengdao had a disapproving look on his face. This Wang Ke is shameless indeed! Is he going to pounce over the chance?Do you really think they will support you? You’re just an Innate cultivator. You won’t get them to listen to you, even if you become the East Wolf Hall Lord!
You are playing with fire!
But Wang Ke didn’t care. He didn’t really want to become a Hall Lord, but the benefit was thrown at him. Even if it was just a name, it would boost the God Wang Company’s sales.
“Wang Ke, don’t play around! You are still too weak!” Chen Tianyuan said with a frown.
“Sect Lord, we beg to differ on that point,” Tie Liuyun tried persuading Chen Tianyuan, “You know the conditions for the East Wolf Hall Lord. The first is to reach the Astral Infant Stage; since no one is at the Astral Infant Stage, we shouldn’t take cultivation as a factor for the moment. Junior brother Wang has a more virtuous character than any of us; I’m not bluffing! You cannot act covertly and exclude him just because you’re his Revered Teacher! Junior brother Wang has our support!”
Chen Tianyuan: “……………………!”
This is such a bizarre situation; my disciple will stir up chaos!
“We can’t do that!” a disciple objected furiously, “Even if we put aside the first condition, what about the second and third conditions? Wang Ke can be considered to have met the second condition of having half of the disciples supporting him, but what about the third? To fulfill the third condition, he must learn East Wolf Hall’s battle technique. This is an unavoidable requirement!”
“What’s the East Wolf Hall’s battle technique?” Wang Ke asked curiously.
That disciple answered in a mocking tone, “For example, Eldest apprentice-brother’s Demon Slaying Draw Strike. Wang Ke, do you know it? Only by using the East Wolf Hall’s battle technique can the East Wolf Hall Lord unleash the power of the Righteous-Qi Sword. You can’t even use the Righteous-Qi Sword without the technique. How can you become the East Wolf Hall Lord if you can’t do that?”
“The Righteous-Qi Sword? Isn’t that the artifact used to test for demonic Qi? It can also be used for battle? What if it’s damaged in battle?” the astonished Wang Ke asked.
Murong Luguang smiled in contempt; he apparently didn’t consider Wang Ke a worthy competitor. After taking a step forward, he readied the Righteous-Qi Sword.
“Take a good look, junior brother Wang. The Righteous-Qi Sword will never be damaged as long as you use the East Wolf Hall’s battle technique. Only the East Wolf Hall’s battle technique can unleash its true power!” Murong Luguang explained.
He readied himself to draw the sword as he spoke.
“Whoosh!”
A gust of wind lifted up the leaves on the ground, which started circling around Murong Luguang. The impressive view made all the junior apprentices hold their breaths and back off to one side.
Murong Luguang was channeling his energy; everyone could feel the increasingly powerful aura he radiated. Finally, Murong Luguang looked up when the power reached the peak, and his eyes glowed.
“Tsssshing!”
The Righteous-Qi Sword flashed out of its sheath and lit up the entire place in an instant. A gigantic sword of radiance slashed forth, cutting deep into a nearby hill.
“Boooom!”
The white radiance faded away, followed by a loud explosion, but the hill was already cut in half. A seemingly bottomless crevasse could be seen between the halves, extending a few hundred meters from under Murong Luguang’s feet. The fearsome attack had also melted the crevasse’s edges.
“Awesome! Eldest apprentice-brother!” Many disciples were impressed by the technique.
“The slash had the power of an Astral Infant!” Chen Tianyuan praised.
“Thanks to the Righteous-Qi Sword!” Murong Luguang smiled.
After that, he turned to look at Wang Ke, “See that? The Righteous-Qi Sword is not just an artifact to test for demonic Qi. It wouldn’t be damaged during battle! Just now, I used the Demon Slaying Draw Strike with the Righteous-Qi Sword. That’s the East Wolf Hall’s battle technique!”
The second senior apprentice and his followers looked worried. The East Wolf Hall’s battle technique was not a simple trick. It would take more than just one or two years if Wang Ke had to learn it.
“Oh, just that? A draw strike? I know it too!” Wang Ke said.
“Hmm?” Everyone looked at Wang Ke in disbelief.
You must be bluffing! How long has it been since you arrived at the Heavenly Wolf Sect?How is it possible that you could know the Demon Slaying Draw Strike?
“I just have to draw the Righteous-Qi Sword and then put it back into the sheath? How is that difficult? I already know how to do it after seeing it done once!” Wang Ke said with a strange look.
Zhang Zhengdao’s face twitched while standing beside him. Just to draw it and then put it back?And you learned it after watching it just once?How do you have the face to say this?
