”Make your move. This is all my fault. As long as Sovereign doesn't leave, I'm willing to die to atone for my sins!”
Closing his eyes, Huo Lee sighed. Facing the attacks of the meteors, he had no intention of dodging them.
No matter how one looked at it, being a Leader of Heaven and Earth Sect was not a bad thing. Therefore, before the shooting stars rushed over, Han Chen had already moved in front of Huo Lee like lightning to block the attack for him.
”Sovereign, get out of the way, I will kill him!” With a furious expression, the shooting star's eyes were bloodshot and filled with killing intent.
”Alright, Senior Meteor, as long as it means something, there is no need to play with the truth.”
”In that case, Sect Leader, you have forgiven Huo Lee and are willing to become the Sect Leader of our Heavenly Sword Sect?” Overjoyed, Meteor immediately kept the long sword and spoke excitedly.
”I didn't say that.”
Immediately, Han Chen helped Huo Lee up, and said with a look of sincere fear: ”Senior Huo Lee, you don't have to do this, I actually know that you mean no harm, you did this for the Heaven and Earth Sect.”
It was a very calm sentence, but when he heard Huo Lee's words, he suddenly felt like he was about to cry. It was rare for Han Chen to not hold a grudge and even understand himself, which made him very touched.
”Clan Master, I am glad that you think this way. However, since you have subdued the Azure Heavenly Blade and also comprehended the sword techniques in the Heavenly Sword Cave, our Heaven and Earth Sect is the most suitable for you. It was fated, or you wouldn't have known how to sing three songs before you came here. Sect Leader, what the meteor said earlier is right. If you do not take on the position of Clan Master because of me, then I, Huo Lee, will be the sinner of Heaven and Earth Sect for all eternity! ” With every word, Huo Lee was weeping with blood.
”Senior Huo Lee, this has nothing to do with you. You should know that I am the Ocean Emperor of the Sea Clan, so it is absolutely impossible for me to resign because of my identity as the Leader of Heaven and Earth Sect.” With a dignified demeanor, Han Chen humbly said, completely rational.
”No need, your identity as a Sea Emperor of Sea Sect is completely different from our identity as a Leader of Heaven and Earth Sect, we can accept that.” Huo Lee said excitedly as he promptly changed his tone.
”Cough cough, but my cultivation is really too weak. Right now, I am only a Martial King, with numerous geniuses in Heaven and Earth Sect and the weakest in cultivation is a Martial Emperor.” If you say that the person with the lowest cultivation is the Clan Master, then the prestige of the Heaven and Earth Sect will be undermined! ”
With a smile on his face, Han Chen was deliberately making things difficult for Huo Lee.
Han Chen's repeated words caused Huo Lee to feel extremely embarrassed. At this moment, he sighed deeply, and looked at Han Chen with a bit of vexation: ”Clan Master, what you're saying is not a problem. I really know that I'm in the wrong, and I hope you don't take it to heart.”
Immediately, in order to express his apology, Huo Lee intended to kneel on the ground once again.
Seeing that, Han Chen hurriedly helped him up, extended his hand and patted Huo Lee's shoulder and said: ”Senior Huo Lee, I was just joking, I hope you don't mind. If you have offended me in any way, I hope that you can forgive me. ”
”In other words, you are willing to become my Heaven and Earth Sect's Clan Master?” An idea came to Huo Lee's mind, and he anticipated it.
This time, he hoped that Han Chen could give a definite answer or else he would really collapse.
”It is hard to refuse a favor. What virtue or ability did I, Han Chen, have to do this? I am indebted to all the seniors that have taken a fancy to me. If I still blindly avoid it, then my crime will truly be great. I am willing to accept the position of Heaven and Earth Sect as sect master, but I have a request, and that is, I hope that all of you will give me more guidance in the future. ”
With an imposing aura, Han Chen did not continue to act pretentiously, and decisively accepted the identity of Sect Leader.
”Great!”
When he truly heard Han Chen's words, Huo Lee felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his heart.
Immediately, the group did not dare to hesitate any further. Under the lead of Rogue Immortal Huo Lee and Meteor, they all knelt in front of Han Chen and greeted in unison: ”We pay our respects to Sect Leader.”
No matter what, even if Han Chen was only a Martial King, he could still rely on his charisma to gain the recognition of everyone in the Heaven and Earth Sect.
Thus, Han Chen officially became the Patriarch of the Heaven and Earth Sect.
Satisfied, Han Chen nodded his head and raised his hand, indicating everyone to stand up.
After that, Han Chen gathered Meteor, Huo Lee and the other Rogue Immortal s together and discussed their plans for the future. After all, the ocean area was currently in danger, so he, the new Clan Master, could not stay in the Immortal Island.
”Seniors, speaking of qualifications, it is my fortune that I, Han Chen, am able to receive your appreciation. To be honest, I never thought that I would be able to become the Patriarch of the Heaven and Earth Sect, but being able to do so is my, Han Chen's, honor. But there are some things I have to make clear. ”
Taking in a deep breath, Han Chen swept his eyes across the crowd with a sharp gaze before continuing, ”Even if I don't tell everyone, given how the situation in the sea realm is, since the day the Ocean Emperor ascended, his Sea Clan has been broken into pieces. A few years ago, I received the position of the Sea Suppressing Pearl as the next Ocean Emperor. Now that our Sea Clan has been split into two forces and we have been involving our Blood Sea of Death in the process, the situation with our Sea Clan is even more dangerous. So, even though I am the Clan Master of Heaven and Earth Sect, I still need to return to Sea Clan to help Sea Clan to overcome this obstacle. Thus, I hope that you can understand me. ”
”Sovereign of the Seas, I have told Huo Lee and the others about this matter before. They all expressed their understanding. Other than that, if our Sea Clan needs our help, we would naturally do our best. ”
