Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Ling Xiao is Chen Buyi’s closed-door disciple and also the first candidate to ascend this time, so the guards at the Demon Scripture Hall will not stop him either.

But trouble always catches you by surprise.

Just as the two were about to step into the Demon Scripture Hall, a voice came from behind.

”Sect Master, please wait!”

The voice, soft yet seductive.

No need to look; it was immediately clear that it was the First Elder of the Sect, that half-aged lady.

Ling Xiao frowned. He had already secured the first position as the candidate to ascend, gaining the opportunity to enter the Demon Scripture Hall and obtain supreme martial arts, so what was this First Elder up to?

Moreover, all three Elders had come.

These guys really wouldn’t let anyone have peace.

”The three of us, pay our respects to the Sect Master!”

Although the three Elders had long seen Chen Buyi as an opponent, they still had to maintain appearances.

Before they completely fell out with Chen Buyi, they still had to pretend to be submissive.

”What are you three doing here? Do you have any major matters to report?”

Chen Buyi glared at the three Elders, his expression not looking good.

Ling Xiao could guess what was happening, so naturally, Chen Buyi could too.

The appearance of these three old foxes indicated that nothing good was bound to happen.

”Reporting to the Sect Master, we have come for the ’Demon Dragon Illusion’ body movement technique,”

said the First Elder.

”What? What do you mean? Are you intending not to hand over this ’Demon Dragon Illusion’ body movement technique to Ling Xiao?”

Chen Buyi’s voice carried a hint of icy coldness.

Ling Xiao had already publicly earned the first position to ascend; if these three old foxes dared to obstruct, he would certainly not be polite.

Even though he could hear the dissatisfaction in Chen Buyi’s voice.

The First Elder still braced herself and said, ”Sect Master, rules cannot be broken!

According to the rules of our Demon Dragon Sect, even if one becomes the first candidate to ascend, to obtain the ’Demon Dragon Illusion’ body movement technique, one must demonstrate the battle power of the late stage of the Eleventh Layer of the First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm.

Ling Xiao’s battle power is obviously insufficient.

I dare to suggest that Ling Xiao temporarily give up on the ’Demon Dragon Illusion’. After all, in our Demon Scripture Hall, there are many Immortal Grade Two Heavenly Martial Arts he can freely choose from.”

”Humph, when your disciple became the first candidate to ascend, you didn’t propose such a rule.

Do you know the consequences of making things difficult for me?”

Chen Buyi snorted coldly, clearly already somewhat angry: ”Usually, I don’t want to fuss with you, but don’t push your luck, do you really think I’m an idiot?”

”We dare not!”

The First Elder, Second Elder, and Third Elder all knelt on the ground.

”If you don’t dare, then leave!”

Chen Buyi shouted sharply.

”Our loyalty to the Demon Dragon Sect can be attested by heaven and earth! It is not against Ling Xiao, but rules cannot be abandoned.

You, Sect Master, can certainly pass on that supreme martial art to him when his battle power meets the requirements, and we naturally will not obstruct.”

The three Elders were evidently determined to argue to the end.

Just as they didn’t want to completely fall out with Chen Buyi, Chen Buyi didn’t actually want to completely fall out with them either.

The three factions of the Demon Dragon Sect still needed to coexist harmoniously, or else the Demon Dragon Sect might instantly fall apart.

The three Elders realized this point, daring to argue to the death, assured that Chen Buyi wouldn’t dare to take drastic action against them.

”Sect Master, please think for the greater good of the Demon Dragon Sect, defend the fairness and justice of the Demon Dragon Sect!”

At this moment, a crowd of people arrived.

These people were all subordinates or disciples of the three Elders.

Their numbers reached over a thousand.

They all knelt there, seemingly respectful to Chen Buyi, but in reality, it was a threat.

”Good! Very good! Are you trying to force me?”

Chen Buyi’s complexion was incredibly dark and unsightly.

His killing intent simmered within him, ready to burst at any moment.

”What if I insist on bestowing the ’Demon Dragon Illusion’ on Ling Xiao today?”

Chen Buyi’s voice carried a strong sense of murderous intent.

The Demon Dragon Sect was his creation, even though his control wasn’t as strong as before.

But he was still the Sect Master; such actions truly enraged him.

And he feared no one.

His strength was enough to directly confront the three Elders and the two Deputy Sect Masters.

This was why he could do as he pleased.

”If the Sect Master insists, I dare not do anything, but have you considered.

Once you break the rules, in the future, can we casually bestow that supreme martial art to our disciples?

If so, what’s the point of having the rules in the Demon Scripture Hall?”

The First Elder was clearly determined to confront Chen Buyi today.

Of course, she dared not make a move.

Because she knew she was not Chen Buyi’s match.

But justice stood on her side; if Chen Buyi insisted on chaos, even if Ling Xiao obtained the ’Demon Dragon Illusion’, they would still be the final victors.

Because Chen Buyi would utterly lose the people’s support.

By then, the impeachment of Chen Buyi’s position as Sect Master would not be far off.

Ling Xiao stood aside, coldly watching these performances, finding them very amusing.

Every face showed absolute loyalty.

Every word spoken emphasized the greater good, seemed all for the Demon Dragon Sect.

But as for what was in their hearts, probably only they knew.

Indeed, where there are people, there are schemers and plotters.

Chen Buyi frowned, knowing full well the others had no reason, but he was caught in a dilemma.

Leaving would only weaken his authority as Sect Master.

Forcing his way in would also greatly diminish his prestige, and the sect members might rebel.

Although strong, if all members united to impeach him, he could not stem the tide.

Perhaps to strike while the iron is hot, the Second Elder, abandoning his usual playful demeanor, actually burst into tears.

”Sect Master! Please reconsider!

If purely because Ling Xiao is your personal disciple, you show such favoritism, your painstakingly built foundation might be destroyed overnight.

You are the founder of the Demon Dragon Sect.

But the rules of the Demon Dragon Sect were also set by you.

You once said that regardless of who, all must adhere to the sect rules, including yourself.

You used to do very well, and the sect members admired you greatly.

But are you really going to, for just one Ling Xiao, go against your own promise and slap yourself in the face?

Aren’t you afraid of disheartened sect members who worship and admire you?”

His ultimate performance won many people’s approval.

More and more people gathered, kneeling down.

Chen Buyi’s face had turned completely ashen.

In terms of inciting and fanning flames, he truly could not compare to these three Elders.

Chen Buyi took a deep breath.

He decided to do things his own way.

In his view, a Ling Xiao was worth more than anything else.
