My Master Knows It All-Chapter 625 - 203_3

The grand competition of the Hundred Peaks Sect was sacred to them, yet with such a matter at hand, even if they continued to want Cao Zhen as the Sect Leader, they didn’t know how to broach the subject.

In the midst of the silence, Ai Yunqi’s voice suddenly sounded.

"The old hag has a few words to say." Ai Yunqi walked from the back to the front and, looking at everyone, began, "Actually, you may not know that the reason why Peak Master Cao wants to make money is not for himself, but for the Hundred Peaks Sect.

Everyone already knows that Peak Master Cao is a reincarnated being of Great Ability, but some of you might also understand that even Great Abilities cannot pool all resources together, nor is it possible for Peak Master Cao, with his current Golden Core cultivation base, to acquire too many resources.

Peak Master Cao can only obtain limited resources, but with an upcoming disturbance in the world, he wants to enhance the cultivation of his disciples and in turn increase our Hundred Peaks Sect’s strength; he naturally needs a large number of resources.

Peak Master Cao could only acquire resources through such means.

As far as I know, the resources that money can buy are also limited. To raise the cultivation base of the disciples of Four Treasures Peak takes many resources, many precious materials, some of which money can’t even buy. Peak Master Cao himself doesn’t know how much he has contributed.

And the results of Peak Master Cao’s contributions are clear for all to see. Now, in the entire Immortal Cultivation world of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, who doesn’t know about our Hundred Peaks Sect? Even commoners know of our existence, and there is not another Immortal Sect in the entire Immortal Cultivation world with a larger reputation than our Hundred Peaks Sect!

All this is thanks to Peak Master Cao!

Peak Master Cao truly treats our Hundred Peaks Sect as his foundation and is willing to sacrifice his own reputation for the sake of our Sect!"

Cao Zhen was stunned. How did Ai Yunqi come out again? You don’t usually like to talk much... You’re not tired from speaking so much?

How can you spin such tales?

You...

Surrounding him, people were troubled over what they should say, but upon hearing Ai Yunqi’s words, they immediately started to echo them.

"So that’s the reason!"

"Everyone knows that Elder Ai is the fairest of all, and Elder Ai’s words must be trustworthy!"

"I knew there had to be a reason for Peak Master Cao’s actions; turns out it was for our Hundred Peaks Sect!"

"What a spirit that is!"

"No wonder, when we went to find the Sect Leader, he turned us away. It must have been because he knew all this and understood Peak Master Cao’s sacrifices!"

"Peak Master Cao, you should have spoken up earlier; whatever resources you need, we would have contributed them!"

"Yes, the True Person Sect Leader should have told us directly!"

"There’s nobody more suitable than Peak Master Cao!"

"Vice Sect Master, let’s decide now!"

Cao Zhen was helpless; no matter what he said, everyone had unanimously decided to choose him as the Sect Leader for the period of the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, and moreover, to start serving immediately.

Of course, even though it was a temporary position, he was still a Substitute Sect Leader, which needed to be recorded in the Sect chronicles of the Hundred Peaks Sect, naturally requiring a ceremony.

Even if Cao Zhen really did not want to be the Sect Leader, he couldn’t make the decision not to be unless he left the Hundred Peaks Sect right now.

There was no helping it; he had to take the position of Sect Leader.

Since the Substitute Sect Leader’s succession ceremony had not yet taken place, the current meeting continued to be presided over by the Vice Sect Master, Jing Zhengfa.

Jing Zhengfa, looking toward Cao Zhen, said, "Peak Master Cao, since you have been appointed as the Substitute Sect Leader, please take a seat over to the side." freёnovelkiss-com

Jing Zhengfa then had a chair brought next to the Sect Leader’s throne. After Cao Zhen sat down, Jing Zhengfa resumed presiding, "Now, we need to choose the Grand Elder. I wonder if there are any recommendations?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Tu Zhuque became the first to stand up and say, "I nominate my disciple, Li Ke, as Grand Elder!"

This time, without waiting for Tu Zhuque to ask her opinion, Chen Qingluan spoke up directly, "I disagree!"

"What grounds do you have for disagreement?" Tu Zhuque, turning her gaze to Chen Qingluan, said arrogantly, "My disciple Li Ke is at the Great Perfection of the ten Golden Core phenomena and ranked eleventh at the Gathering Immortal Warrior Competition. After the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, she is sure to be one of the strongest forces. Tell me, what makes my disciple unsuitable to be the Grand Elder?"

As Tu Zhuque spoke, she lifted her head high; her disciple was impressive and strong, and she dared Chen Qingluan to produce a disciple of this caliber!

"Indeed Li Ke is strong, but not the strongest. Although she is one of the ten Immortal Generals, she did not make it to the top eight. Aside from Peak Master Cao, our Hundred Peaks Sect has four who made it into the top eight. If we are to decide the position of Grand Elder based solely on cultivation...

Chen Qingluan’s gaze drifted toward Four Treasures Peak and, looking at Ling Xi and Yan Yourong who remained standing after Cao Zhen left, she pointed at them and said, "Be it Ling Xi or Yan Yourong, both are more qualified than Li Ke to be the Grand Elder."

Ling Xi, suddenly mentioned by Chen Qingluan, waved her hands and said, "No, thank you. I won’t take the position of Grand Elder. My master... no, I mean, Sister Li Ke is indeed more qualified to be the Grand Elder."

What a joke, how could she compete with her master for the position of Grand Elder!

On the side, Yan Yourong also shook her head, "I need to go into seclusion to cultivate Divine Skills and don’t have time to take on the duty of Grand Elder."
