Chapter 1120
"Sigh, since that's the case …" Li Jian's expression relaxed when he heard that. He smiled and said, "That's good. Then I'll use the facts to argue with you!"
"Go ahead. I'd like to see how that old beggar Jing Yi will convince you!"
"Yes, I'll convince you!" Li Jian looked around and said, "Everyone, please take a seat!
You're all the backbone of our Misty School. This position concerns the development of our Misty School. All of you can listen and express your opinions! "
Everyone nodded silently but didn't sit down. They only looked at Zhang Xiaohu.
Zhang Xiaohu stepped forward and sat on the right side of the leader's seat. He nodded at everyone and they sat down.
"Big Brother, please take a seat!"
Li Jian pointed at his seat and smiled. "This is Big Brother's seat. When Big Brother wasn't around, I secretly sat there for a few days!"
"Hehe," Hu Yunyi smiled. "Maybe it'll be your seat in the future!"
Li Jian was stunned. "Big Brother … what do you mean?"
Hu Yunyi didn't answer. He looked at the seat beside Zhang Xiaohu and said to Shui Yupeng and Shui Tiantian, "You two sit there!"
Shui Yupeng brought Shui Tiantian and walked quickly to Zhang Xiaohu's side. They nodded and sat down.
"Alright, Second Brother. If you have something to say, just say it!"
Li Jian looked at Zhang Xiaohu and asked, "Leader, now … the time is right. Can I say it?"
Zhang Xiaohu knew what Li Jian wanted to say. He smiled. "Even if you don't say it, I'm sure Elder Hu won't agree. Since everyone in the meeting hall is from Misty School, just say it!"
"Yes, as you command, Grand Faction Master!"
Li Jian nodded. He looked at Hu Yunyi's unhappy expression and said, "Big Brother, your injury seems to be very serious. Did you suffer it when you broke out of the Misty Peak's back mountain?"
"Yes, I was hit by a consecrator from the Alliance of Righteous Sects. It hurt my vital organs and I haven't recovered yet!" Hu Yunyi nodded.
"Since Big Brother was heavily injured while breaking out of the encirclement, then I'm sure Big Brother already knows what happened to us!"
"Well, that's for sure. You've all been crippled of your martial arts. You've been captured by the Fragrant Cult …" Hu Yunyi sighed. "I know that because you've lost your martial arts, you can't resist the Fragrant Cult. That's why you brought the two thousand disciples back!"
"Eh?
Big brother, didn't we tell Chu Yunfei to tell you that we have recovered our martial arts? "Li Jianqi asked.
"Of course, Chu Yunfei did. He even said that there was a senior from the Immortal Path who was related to the Misty School that helped Zhang Xiaohu recover all of your martial arts!"
Hu Yunyi said disdainfully, "I know that you guys are deliberately mystifying. You're using the empty fort strategy to confuse the Incense Cult …"
"But … big brother … it's true!" Liu Qingyang jumped up and shouted, "Chu Yunfei, that brat, saw me walking, and I was worried for a long time …"
"How can you recover your martial arts when they've been crippled?
And … even if I'm not the Chief Disciple, I've never heard Master say that there's a senior from the Misty School that's on good terms with us!
If there's really a senior from the Immortal Path who could chase you to the Fragrant Cult, then why didn't he appear when the Misty School was destroyed?
That day, as long as he appeared on the Misty Peak, he didn't have to recover the martial arts of the thousands of disciples. Why do you think he didn't do the simple things and insisted on doing the complicated things? "
Li Jianqi nodded and shook his head. What Hu Yunyi said was quite reasonable, but it was true that he had recovered his martial arts. Who knew why the senior from the Immortal Path didn't appear at the critical moment of the Misty School's destruction? Why did he have to wait until the Misty School was destroyed?
"It's useless to say more!" Li Jianqi laughed. "Big Brother, look!"
Li Jianqi pulled out the long sword at his waist. His face was slightly purple, and the tip of the long sword was three fingers long!
"Ah?
Sword? "Hu Yunyi couldn't sit still. He stood up and asked," Second Brother, you … you really recovered your martial arts? "
"Not only that, Big Brother, there's me too!"
Liu Qingyang couldn't help but walk up to Hu Yunyi and say, "That day, my joints were crushed by the monks of the Dalin Temple. I couldn't even stand up!"
"Senior Uncle, we … we really recovered." Wen Wenhai stood up and smiled.
"No way, really … really?" Hu Yunyi was stunned. He pointed at the others and asked, "You … you all recovered?"
"Yes, Senior Uncle. Thanks to Sect Leader Zhang, we all recovered our martial arts."
Everyone said, "However, in order to not attract the attention of the Fragrant Cult, we still pretended that we didn't recover our martial arts!"
"This …" Hu Yunyi was speechless. He waved his hand and asked everyone to sit down. His tone was pleasantly surprised. "That's good. With your martial arts recovered, the strength of the Misty School will reach a higher level. We don't have to worry about the disciples of the Fragrant Cult!"
Then, he seemed to think of something and changed the topic. "However, this was done by the senior who has a deep relationship with our Misty School. It has nothing to do with … Zhang Xiaohu. They just borrowed his hand!"
"Haha, Big Brother, you have to think about it. Why didn't the senior find someone else but Zhang Xiaohu?"
"It was a coincidence!" Hu Yunyi replied.
"Big Brother, that day at Shixin Peak, Zhang Xiaohu was the only direct disciple of our Misty School who didn't lose his martial arts. Although the senior gave Du Feng and Ding Chao ten years' worth of martial arts, he didn't give them the important task of recovering our martial arts. What do you think the senior meant by this?"
"But Zhang Xiaohu's … identity …?"
"Don't worry, Big Brother. Zhang Xiaohu is definitely not a disciple of the Fragrant Cult. When he came to our Misty School, he didn't know any martial arts. Moreover … the Fragrant Cult respects female disciples. Even if the old beggar Jing Yi had a premeditated plan, she would still choose Yang Ruping!"
Hu Yunyi thought for a moment and nodded. "There's no need to argue about this. You've received such a big favor from him. Of course, you have to speak up for him. Perhaps this was also premeditated by Zhang Xiaohu!"
Zhang Xiaohu sat in his chair, quietly listening and watching. It was as if he didn't care that this was a farce.
"Well, since Big Brother said so, then I can only admit it. I've received such a big favor from Zhang Xiaohu. Naturally, I have to repay him. Although the old beggar Jing Yi wanted him to be the leader of the Misty School, he's also the candidate that all the Misty School disciples want!"
Li Jian sneered, "But Big Brother is referring to a ten-year-old child. What qualifications does he have?
He wants to be the leader of the Misty School as soon as he comes?
Does he have the grace of being reborn to our Misty School disciples?
Or can he pull our Misty School disciples out of the puppets of the Fragrant Cult?
Is it just because he's the direct disciple of our Misty School's chief disciple? "
Li Jian looked at Hu Yunyi and said, "Although Zhang Xiaohu isn't Zhang Chengyue's disciple, he's still Wen Wenhai's disciple. He's also the direct disciple of Fourth Brother. There's nothing wrong with that!
Moreover, the leader of our Misty School doesn't have to be based on seniority. Didn't Big Brother give the position of chief disciple and leader to Fourth Brother? "
"This …" Hu Yunyi was speechless.
"There's also Deputy Leader Shui!"
Li Jian looked at Shui Yupeng and said coldly, "Presumably, Deputy Leader Shui knows that the reason why Fourth Brother promoted Shui Yupeng to Deputy Leader is for the sake of the development of our Misty School. He wants to integrate the Luo Shui Gang and the Misty School. If … if Deputy Leader Shui can stay in our Misty School for another ten years and integrate into our Misty School, then … at this time … this Li will definitely persuade Zhang Xiaohu to step down and give the position of Deputy Leader Shui to someone who knows the ins and outs of our Misty School!"
"Pitifully, Deputy Gang Leader Shui has only stayed in our Ethereal Sect for less than two years and has only shown up in Huan Xi Manor for four or five times. Now, you want to seize the position of the Grand Gang Leader of our Ethereal Sect? Do you think you can rely on the fact that you used to be our Deputy Gang Leader?"
"Second Brother, are you saying that … you're going to support Zhang Xiaohu?" Hu Yunyi asked.
"Big Brother, it's not that I support him, but … it's the choice of thousands of our Misty School brothers!"
"Even if you have to fall out with Big Brother, you still want to choose Zhang Xiaohu?" Hu Yunyi asked coldly.
"Big Brother, it's not a matter of falling out or not. As I said, we have to make a wise choice for the development of our Misty School!"
"Your choice is Zhang Xiaohu?"
"Yes, our choice is Faction Leader Zhang!
If you don't believe me, Big Brother, you can ask them! "Li Jian turned around and pointed at the crowd.
"But … the 7,555 disciples I brought with me … all support Shui Yupeng?" Hu Yunyi asked with a smile.
"7,555 disciples?" Li Jian hesitated and looked at Zhang Xiaohu.
Without waiting for Zhang Xiaohu to speak, Hu Yunyi said, "Second Brother, you're right. We have to choose a capable Leader. This is what you and I think.
I don't want to embarrass you, but Shui Yupeng used to be the Leader of Luo Shui Faction and is now the Deputy Leader of our Misty School. He's much better than Zhang Xiaohu in terms of martial arts, prestige, and ability. He's the best choice for Leader of our Misty School! "
"You can't delay the righteousness of the faction because of your personal feelings!"
"Capable?"
Li Jian sneered. "Can Shui Yupeng handle the disciples of Fragrance Cult and the disciples of the Righteous Alliance?"
"What do you mean?" Hu Yunyi asked curiously.
"Zhang Xiaohu took in the disciples of the Incense Cult into the Martial Teaching Hall and the Martial Discussion Hall. Ming Qing and Gao Kunheng, the two Vice Sect Leaders, listened to him. He also took in the disciples of the Righteous Alliance into the Zhenwu Hall and the Great Martial Hall. Wang Lun and Liu Bin, the two Hall Leaders, also followed Zhang Xiaohu's lead.
Can Shui Yupeng do the same? "
"Hiss." Hearing this, Hu Yunyi sucked in a breath of cold air and looked at Zhang Xiaohu. After a while, he said, "Shui Yupeng might be able to do it, but … how can we prove it now?"
