Volume 4: Transformation into Mystery Chapter 558 New Sect Leader
Seeing Shen Hua and the three elders all respectfully paying their respects to Li Xuanfeng, Zheng Cheng also came back to his senses, turned around and bowed deeply to Li Xuanfeng , and said in a deep voice: "Zheng Cheng, pay your respects to the Grand Elder!"
Hearing Shen Hua and the others bow respectfully to Li Xuanfeng, the many elders and disciples in the square also woke up from their shock, clasped their fists deeply with great respect, and shouted in unison: "Greetings to the Grand Elder!"
Zheng Cheng and all the cultivators in the square also followed the example of Shen Hua and the other four, maintaining the posture of bowing, waiting for Li Xuanfeng to accept their salute.
At this time, Shen Luoyan and Li Xuanfeng's three senior brothers all had smiles on their faces, their hearts filled with relief. They did not expect that the master could actually think of this, making it difficult for the junior brothers to refuse and making him a supreme elder with an extraordinary status.
At this time, all the cultivators of Xuanling Sect already knew that Sect Master Shen Hua had made up his mind to make Li Xuanfeng the supreme elder, and they could not completely calm down for a long time.
They never expected that although Li Xuanfeng did not become the successor to the sect leader, he became the supreme elder with a higher status than the sect leader.
However, everyone also knows that although Li Xuanfeng's age seems to have nothing to do with the identity of the Grand Elder, his strength is already worthy of becoming a Grand Elder!
Even among the Xuanling Sect's past supreme elders, there are very few who can match Li Xuanfeng's current combat power!
Seeing that all the people from Xuanling Sect bowed down, respectfully calling him the Grand Elder, and bowed for a long time without standing up, Li Xuanfeng could only shake his head and smile helplessly, saying softly: "Everyone, don't be so polite."
Li Xuanfeng already fully understood his master's thoughts at this time. He wanted to use this method to make it difficult for him to refuse this matter and accept the identity of the Supreme Elder.
Since the master has done so much, he can only accept this identity.
Moreover, it is indeed as Master said, after becoming the Grand Elder, he can still travel , without being bothered by trivial matters, and it will not disturb his peaceful practice.
Furthermore, becoming the supreme elder would be able to more effectively intimidate the other four sects and prevent them from doing anything out of line.
As he opened his mouth to say this, the cultivation power in Li Xuanfeng's body suddenly spread out, instantly covering all the cultivators present, and gently lifting up their bodies as they bent over to worship.
Under the support of Li Xuanfeng's cultivation power, all the cultivators here stood up and shouted in unison: "Thank you, Grand Elder!"
Hearing them calling out "Supreme Elder" one after another, the helplessness in Li Xuanfeng's heart suddenly became even stronger. Why did he feel as if he was already an old monster who had practiced for a long time and was revered by countless elders and disciples?
However, Li Xuanfeng had no other choice at this time. In front of everyone in the sect, he could not refute his master's arrangement and could only accept the status of the supreme elder.
At this time, the three deacons and elders also stepped forward and respectfully handed Li Xuanfeng an exquisite token emitting a deep purple-gold color. This token not only contained amazing and strange power, but also exuded a strong breath of vicissitudes, as if it had experienced a long time.
This is a sect token with a history of thousands of years. It was carefully made for himself by a supreme elder of the Xuanling Sect and has been passed down from generation to generation.
The authority of this token over the sect protection formation is exactly the same as the sect master token in Shen Hua's hand. It can completely control the sect formation. Even if it is called upon at the same time as the sect token, it can suppress the sect token!
Moreover, many formations are sealed in the token, including concealment, protection and restraint. Although they are only at the level of perfection in the Spirit God Realm, they can be deployed at any time to form an amazing protection.
Taking this token means officially becoming the Grand Elder of Xuanling Sect!
After receiving the sect token, Li Xuanfeng's eyes suddenly flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "I recommended my senior brother Zheng Cheng to be the sect leader. In the future, I will always be behind him to assist him. I hope that all fellow disciples will also fully support him!"
After hearing Li Xuanfeng's words, many cultivators in the square immediately knew what he meant. He wanted to support Zheng Cheng and let everyone not doubt him!
Because of the existence of such a terrifying genius as Li Xuanfeng, Zheng Cheng's brilliance will inevitably be overshadowed, causing the cultivators in the sect to doubt him, and Li Xuanfeng is now trying to avoid this from happening.
Hearing Li Xuanfeng's words, Zheng Cheng immediately cast a grateful look at him, while Shen Hua took the lead and clasped his fists and shouted: "I will follow the orders of the Supreme Elder!"
The many elders and disciples in the square also clasped their fists and bowed, shouting loudly: "We will obey the orders of the Grand Elder!"
At this time, many people were extremely envious of Zheng Cheng. Not only could he become the next sect leader, but he also had the support of Li Xuanfeng, the supreme elder with an extraordinary status. Who would dare to refute his decision?
Perhaps only a few of his fellow brothers would dare to discuss the sect's decision with him.
After clasping his fists and bowing, Shen Hua stood up and said to Li Xuanfeng, "Today's conferring of titles is over. You can order the many fellow disciples to disband."
Hearing Shen Hua's words, Li Xuanfeng smiled helplessly in his heart and muttered: It seems that Master is ready to completely retreat behind the scenes and leave all the front-stage work to him and Senior Brother Zheng Cheng.
However, Li Xuanfeng still listened to his master's words and said in a deep voice: "Today's ceremony of conferring the title has ended. Everyone should disperse and return to their residences."
After hearing Li Xuanfeng's words, all the elders and disciples in the square clasped their fists and bowed again before turning around and leaving the place and returning to their own residences.
The speed of gathering was extremely fast, and the speed of dispersing was naturally not slow either. In just a moment, only Li Xuanfeng and a few others were left. The square that was crowded with people just now became empty in an instant.
At this time, only Shen Hua and his wife, Zheng Cheng, Zhu Lie, Chen Gen and his wife, and Li Xuanfeng and his wife were left in the square. All other cultivators had already left.
Seeing that all the elders and disciples had left, Li Xuanfeng said with a helpless smile: "Master, you really caught me off guard this time."
Hearing Li Xuanfeng's words, Shen Hua's expression showed a strong smile, and then he chuckled and said: "Master needs to go into seclusion, so I'll take my leave first."
As he spoke, Shen Hua turned into a stream of light and rushed towards Huayue Garden at an extremely fast speed.
Seeing Shen Hua leaving, Li Xuanfeng's helplessness became even stronger. He didn't expect that his master didn't answer him, but directly decided to run away.
Li Xuanfeng immediately complained in his heart: Master is really disrespectful to his elders and has such evil ideas.
Seeing Shen Hua leaving, Han Yue smiled at Li Xuanfeng, then turned around and turned into a stream of light to follow Shen Hua.
Li Xuanfeng's three brothers either clasped their fists and smiled at him, or stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, smiling and jokingly saying, "Little brother, great elder, please give me more guidance in the future."
Then the three of them turned around and left, leaving only Li Xuanfeng and Shen Luoyan here.
Seeing the deep helplessness in Li Xuanfeng's expression, Shen Luoyan smiled and bowed, saying, "Let's go back, my family's Grand Elder."
Li Xuanfeng suddenly laughed dumbly, and said helplessly: "Senior Sister, even you tease me."
After teasing for a while, Li Xuanfeng also took his senior sister Shen Luoyan back to his residence and started his peaceful life of cultivation again.
After being conferred the title, Shen Hua gradually began to hand over the affairs of the sect leader to Zheng Cheng, and told him all the sect's classics and secrets.
It seems that they are already starting to let Zheng Cheng take over the position of sect leader and become the next sect leader.
Time passed slowly, and the Xuanling Sect fell into peace again. Li Xuanfeng and Shen Luoyan continued to spend their time in peaceful cultivation, and their cultivation continued to grow slowly.
Two years later, the sect bell of Xuanling Sect was rung again, summoning all the monks.
This time, it is the succession ceremony of Zheng Cheng as the clan leader.
In front of all the cultivators of Xuanling Sect, Shen Hua formally handed over the position of Sect Leader to Zheng Cheng and personally handed over the Sect Leader token to him.
When the transfer of the sect leader's belongings was completed, an extremely excited wave of voices suddenly rose to the sky within the Xuanling Sect.
"Meet the new leader!"
Although Zheng Cheng's brilliance is overshadowed by Li Xuanfeng, it is undeniable that he is already one of the best figures of the younger generation, respected by countless disciples and elders, and is qualified to be the next sect leader.
Now with the support of Li Xuanfeng, the extremely powerful supreme elder, no one would doubt Zheng Cheng anymore, so everyone was paying respect to Zheng Cheng from the bottom of their hearts.
This time, Li Xuanfeng stood beside Shen Hua and held a succession ceremony for Zheng Cheng with him.
When all the elders and disciples of Xuanling Sect were respectfully paying homage to Zheng Cheng, Li Xuanfeng and Shen Hua stood in front, smiling but saying nothing. They did not join all the cultivators of Xuanling Sect in paying homage to Zheng Cheng.
With his current status, the sect leader Zheng Cheng did not dare to accept his audience, so Li Xuanfeng could only stand in front with Shen Hua and witness Zheng Cheng become the new sect leader.
At this time, Zheng Cheng also imitated Li Xuanfeng, radiating the power of cultivation, gently lifting up all the elders and disciples who were bowing in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Fellow disciples, there is no need to be so polite."
After helping up all the monks in the square, Zheng Cheng turned to look at Shen Hua and Li Xuanfeng, with a hint of excitement and nervousness in his eyes.
Although he was already familiar with the affairs of the sect leader and knew that he would succeed the position of sect leader sooner or later, Zheng Cheng still couldn't help but feel a little excited when he actually became the sect leader.
As for the nervousness, it was because he was worried that he would not be able to take on the position of sect leader, and a hint of nervousness inevitably appeared in his heart.
Seeing Zheng Cheng turning around to look at him, Li Xuanfeng smiled and said, "Congratulations, Senior Brother."
Shen Hua also nodded and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, you will be the best leader of Xuanling Sect and can lead Xuanling Sect to become stronger. We will all assist you with all our strength."
This was to cheer Zheng Cheng up. Obviously Shen Hua had seen the nervousness in his expression.
