The stone lanterns on both sides of the mountain road were lit one after another, and the lights covered the mountains and fields, illuminating the messy tree shadows and dispelling the gloomy night.

Shilai Peak is not as lively as it used to be, but it doesn't look cold either. There are still people coming and going in the cafeteria, and the voices of whispering and talking are endless.

At the last table by the window sat three men and a girl.Among the three men, one was wearing a white jade hairpin, one was as thin as a monkey, and the other was as fat as a mountain.

The fat man among them said: "I took a trip to Qixuan Peak earlier, you should know about it, our suzerain... hey."

He sighed, and then continued: After the suzerain passed away, there must be a new suzerain who came out to preside over the overall situation.The old suzerain left a will, specifying that he would hand over the position to Mr. Xuesheng, and Mr. Mingyi also stood in line with Mr. Xuesheng, but the other peak masters did not support it. They were arguing on Qixuan Peak.Uh, maybe it was a unilateral quarrel with Mr. Ming Yi. "

Sitting opposite him, Bai Yudaozhan put down his chopsticks, shook his head and frowned and said: "Our sect is not a royal family in the secular world, and the prince can ascend the throne with the will. I don't support Lord Xuesheng as suzerain either...Of course, I just don't support him As suzerain, I still respect Lord Xuesheng in other respects."

"I also object." The man who was as thin as a monkey took a sip of tea and said, "Xiao Xun is his apprentice, which has greatly discredited our reputation in the world. Half of the current war is due to him."

"You can't say that. As early as three years ago at the Donghua banquet, Yaotai Jing and Qingshan Academy joined forces to attack us." The only girl at the dinner table retorted, "It was Xiao Xun who caused the accident, It's not Lord Xuesheng. At that time, Xiao Xun had the evil idea of ​​killing his master."

The thin monkey shrugged: "But I didn't see Mr. Xuesheng cleaning up the house."

The girl rolled her eyes: "There was a battle at that time, and it's not like you didn't see how fast Xiao Xun was running."

Skinny Monkey: "I really didn't see it."

girl:"……"

The fat man stuffed a chicken leg into his mouth, quickly peeled off the bone and swallowed the meat, and talked about the scene he saw: "Xiao Xun disappeared in the blink of an eye, like a ghost, you must know that he is in the state of mind and emptiness! "

"His mind is far more than a state of emptiness!" The thin monkey said loudly.

"No matter what, I still don't want the new suzerain to be Lord Xuesheng." Bai Yudaozhan frowned, "Xiao Xun is his apprentice, and if such a big thing happened, Lord Xuesheng should avoid suspicion no matter what. Good for him and good for us."

"Mr. Xuesheng, what you should do now is to avoid suspicion."

In Hefeng Daoist Hall, Ye Wanxing and Xie Ling sat side by side on the promenade outside the front hall, holding the cup of tea that Xie Ling made for her, looking up at the faintly shining stars in the sky outside the eaves, speaking in a very complex.

"The vast majority of people in this world can't see the process and only recognize the result on the surface.

"Such a big thing happened to Xiao Xun. You are his master. Even if he stabbed you with a sword at that time and separated the relationship between you from everyone, others will still treat you with unkind eyes and attitudes. You If you take over the suzerain position, you will push yourself to the forefront, which is too dangerous."

Xie Ling's eyes fell on the pool in the corner that was obscured by the night, and his voice was very soft: "If I avoid suspicion, and stay here, Xiao Xun will definitely be hunted down."

His words startled Ye Wanxing.Ye Wanxing turned her head in a daze: "You...Are you going to cover up in the open?"

"It's not too obvious." Xie Ling still stared at the pool, her tone was very flat, as if she was talking with Ye Wanxing about whether the tea is good or not.

Just don't be blatant, it seems that you are the most prepared.Ye Wanxing didn't know how to persuade him for a while, so he poured a sip of water into his throat and slowly organized his words: "But if you do this, you will be under pressure from all sides, unless there is someone who can completely suppress Xiao Xing's matter or The power supports you. This person or power cannot come from the outside, otherwise it will be an outsider interfering in the affairs of your sect. Although Mr. Ming Yi is on your side, at present, he does not have such ability. Under such a situation When you become the suzerain, you will be under a lot of pressure and you will have a hard time."

"Stress." Xie Ling smiled slightly, raised her eyelids, and looked up gradually, looking at the sky with only a few stars lit up, "Isn't the pressure always there?"

Ye Wanxing vaguely felt that he understood what he said, but felt that he didn't understand anything, so he looked up and shook his head.

Qixuan Peak is located in the middle of the mountain, in the solemn Taoist hall.

The guest couch has not been put back to its original position, the round table is standing in the center, some people are sitting in the chairs, or some people are standing up, the voices of people are chaotic.Gu Song was sitting at the top of the round table, dressed in black, with handsome features and indifferent expression.

He was as silent as a statue, and the person across from him slammed the table and said angrily, "The suzerain of this sect has never been based on force, but on convincing everyone! Ming Yi Jun, you have to give a reason, one you refuse to take over." The suzerain, the reason why Mr. Xuesheng took over! The reason that convinces us!"

Everyone except Gu Song nodded in agreement with him, this is the sum of what they said just now.

This is a confrontation between one person and a group of people, and it has lasted for a quarter of an hour since the suzerain's body was brought back to the sect.

Gu Song picked up the tea in hand, took a sip slowly, raised his eyes and said, "Without him, not only you, everyone in this world would die. Do you accept this reason?"

"What kind of talk is that? A threat?"

"Prophecy? Divination?"

"It's pretty reliable to use divination to find people and things, but how can you use divination to make decisions about such things!"

The chatter in the Dao Hall immediately turned into an uproar, not much better than the chaos caused by all the disciples on Shilai Peak.

Gu Song didn't stop these people from talking loudly, but the person opposite him couldn't stand it, he patted the table again, and asked sharply: "Is this the Shilaifeng market? Are you here to go to the market?"

The chaotic voice was suppressed.

He looked deeply at Gu Song: "Who did the divination? The people of this sect are proficient in martial arts, and have never been good at divination and astrology. It should be done by others. Maybe that person can be trusted? Even if that person can believe it, the divination Are the results believable?"

"This is the future that the suzerain sees." Gu Song met his gaze and said indifferently as always.

The Taoist hall was completely quiet, and in the silent atmosphere where the needle drop could be heard, there were candles flickering.Among the people who stood up, you looked at me and I looked at you. Finally, one person came out and said to Gu Song: "If the Xiao Xun incident hadn't happened, we would be happy to see whoever succeeds you and Mr. Xuesheng as suzerain."

"I will not be the suzerain." Gu Song put the teacup back to catch up, glanced around the people present, stood up and went out, "Since you don't agree with my junior brother's succession, then choose one of you. No matter who it is, I will I will not object, and neither will my junior brother."

"Ming Yi-jun!"

"Ming Yi-jun stay!"

"Ming Yijun has not explained the reason for not wanting to succeed the suzerain so far!"

It was as if a pot had exploded in the Taoist hall.

The person opposite Gu Song suddenly turned around, and asked loudly at Gu Song's back: "Is the future that the suzerain sees in Xiao Xun's body? In this world, only Mr. Xuesheng can stop Xiao Xun?"
