Chapter 93: Master is a Beautiful Woman (1) (1/2)

The moment Li Qiye and the others returned to the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect, Elder Sun was already eagerly waiting outside. Seeing Li Qiye’s group riding on top of a giant snail, Elder Sun was stunned; this snail was so fast that it was downright illogical.

However, Elder Sun wasn’t in the mood to talk about this. He looked at Li Qiye and hurriedly said: “Thank the heaven and earth that you are all finally back.”

He then busily brought Li Qiye down from the giant snail.

Elder Sun anxiously told Li Qiye: “You need to go to the ancestral chamber, fast; there might be a fight.”

Seeing his worried look, Li Qiye asked: “Enemies from outside? Or is it that the Heavenly Jewel Kingdom has finally arrived at our door?”

Seeing Li Qiye’s slow and calm words, Elder Sun couldn’t do anything else but explain: “No, the sect master is back, and she’s inside the ancestral chamber. Elder Gu’s group is quarreling with the sect master! You should still hurry and see!”

“The sect master…” Elder Sun’s answer was outside of Li Qiye’s expectation. Regarding Sect Master Su Yonghuang, Li Qiye didn’t have half an impression. One could even say that, regarding this master that he got by chance, he never really paid attention to or asked about her.

Su Yonghuang’s current return surprised Li Qiye. He calmly said: “Good, I should meet this master after all.”

Finished speaking, he went inside.

Niu Fen turned his body back into his second form. He became the old man once again, walking alongside Li Qiye. Seeing a giant snail turning into an old man, Elder Sun couldn’t help but become lost in a daze; however, at this moment, he also didn’t have time to ask about this matter.

This time, inside the ancestral chamber, the elders almost flipped the table. The elders, as the highest power in charge of the current Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect, should be maintaining their composure, yet at this moment, Elder Zhou and his group were all glaring with their eyes wide open. The subject of their gazes was the current sect master, Su Yonghuang, of the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect.

Only Elder Gu’s att.i.tude was pleasant. He simply sat in his place and didn’t speak a single world.

Su Yonghuang, as the sect master, was, in fact, not welcomed by the upper echelon. The reason was simple, Su Yonghuang didn’t have any credentials or experience inside the sect. One could even say that she was not a disciple of the sect.

Su Yonghuang’s sudden appearance and becoming the sect master was an extremely sudden matter. The entire sect was not prepared for it, and they didn’t even know about such a character.

Her becoming the sect master was because the previous sect master was still alive. At that time, there were two or three Supreme Elders who were still alive. There was even one Supreme Elder who had lived for a very long time and was rumored to be part of the fight thirty thousand years ago; he was in isolated cultivation due to his mortal wound.

Regarding the specific circ.u.mstances of this matter, no one was very clear about it with the exception of First Elder Gu Tieshou. Anyways, Su Yonghuang was declared to be the next sect master by the previous one. This decision was supported by all of the Supreme Elders. The oldest Supreme Elder even summoned Gu Tieshou, and he personally persuaded him.

To sum it all up, after one night, Gu Tieshou agreed with Su Yonghuang taking the seat of Sect Master. In reality, at that time, the entire sect was in an uproar. This matter was too great; a person who no one knew suddenly became the new sect master. This matter was truly hard for the sect to accept.

At that time, Gu Tieshou earnestly persuaded the group of Elder Zhou, and he suppressed the majority of the disciples who were strongly opposing Su Yonghuang. Thus, the matter was settled.

However, Su Yonghuang herself seemed to know her situation. As the sect master, she didn’t stay behind in the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect. She instead brought along a small group of disciples, including a few sectional leaders. Afterward, Su Yonghuang was the sect master and was located on the outskirts of the sect. She essentially didn’t interfere with the internal affairs; however, she still kept in contact with the sect.

Fortunately, with this decision, the sect finally calmed down. The six elders became the main deciders of any big decisions of the sect from then on.

It could be said that, when Su Yonghuang was the sect master, First Elder Gu Tieshou was the grand contributor to the sect. Before her appearance, Gu Tieshou was the first to inherit the seat as he was the most qualified for the position.

Gu Tieshou was the direct disciple of the last sect master, and he was also the most experienced within the first generation disciples, who had been in the sect for the longest amount of time. Not only this, he was also diligent and dedicated to the entire sect.

If at that time, Gu Tieshou didn’t persuade Elder Zhou’s group, no one else would have been able to convince the rest of the upper echelon.

Because Gu Tieshou was willing to give up his position and also personally took charge of the matter, Su Yonghuang was able to become the sect master.

That very same Su Yonghuang who was always outside decided to come back today. Su Yonghuang had never come back to the sect with the exception of when the previous sect master pa.s.sed away.

Her reason for returning this time was because of the Evil Infested Ridge. She wanted to take some disciples into the Evil Infested Ridge. This was immediately subjected to opposition from Elder Zhou’s group.
