Chapter 1123

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Zhang Xiaohua's face was frosty. She looked at Shui Yupeng, who was sitting on the bed with a dazed expression. She snorted and said, "Alright, you can sleep now. Remember, nothing happened tonight."

"Yes, nothing happened today."

Shui Yupeng muttered and turned over to lie on the kang. Zhang Xiaohua was not in a hurry to leave. She stood in the room and waited for a moment, then turned around and went back to the alchemy room.

Three days later, the sky was clear and the autumn wind brought the smell of autumn.

But in the square of the Ethereal Heights, the atmosphere was not the joy of harvest!

Among the 7,555 disciples brought back by Hu Yunyi this time, hundreds of them were the elites of the Young Eagle Hall. They were very familiar with the disciples of the Misty School and had integrated into the Misty School in just three days. The other 6,555 disciples were secretly recruited by Hu Yunyi in the past few years. Three days was still a short time. At this time, they were squeezed on one side of the square with Shui Tiantian and Shui Yupeng. There was a faint gap between them and the disciples of the Misty School.

In addition to these people, the hall masters also brought their elite disciples to surround the square, waiting for today's competition!

Xue Qing led the Young Eagle Hall disciples and stood beside Shui Yupeng's disciples. He turned his head to look at the confident Shui Yupeng and the slightly nervous Shui Tiantian behind her. He couldn't help but frown slightly. After instructing the disciples behind him, he walked to Aunt Qin's side.

Behind Aunt Qin were Changge and Chen Chen. When they saw Xue Qing coming, they both saluted.

"Eh?

You two don't seem … to be worried about Grand Master? "Seeing Changge and Chen Chen's relaxed appearance, Xue Qing was very surprised.

"Yes … I don't know what trump card Grand Master Zhang has. I also feel strange, but these two girls won't say anything!" Aunt Qin said with a smile.

But there was also some worry in her eyes.

"Mhm." Xue Qing said, "It's best if you have a trump card. Otherwise … my Misty School's great situation will be ruined again!"

Aunt Qin nodded. "That's right. Ever since my Misty School left First Faith Peak, it was under Sect Leader Zhang's command. When we arrived at Misty Mountain Villa, it was with great difficulty that we managed to deal with the Incense Cult and the Righteous Dao Alliance's disciples.

If … something goes wrong this time, or if … Shui Yupeng wins, I'm afraid … we'll have to fight again? "

"I don't think so. But judging from Grand Faction Leader Zhang's methods of subduing the disciples of the Righteous Alliance and the Incense Cult, Shui Yupeng might not be able to subdue them if he's not here. Internal strife … is a small matter. The overall strength of the Misty School will definitely drop!"

"It's difficult. Shui Yupeng used to be the Deputy Faction Leader of our Misty School. Her Kung Fu was almost as good as the Six Tigers of Misty. Grand Faction Leader Zhang … his Kung Fu is not even as good as the Two Beauties of Misty. I'm afraid … it's not …"

Xue Qing looked at Du Feng and Ding Chao who were not far away and sighed. "It's strange. Why did the immortal senior who is related to our Misty School only improve the Kung Fu of Ding Chao and Du Feng, but not Grand Faction Leader Zhang's Kung Fu?"

"Du Feng and Ding Chao have been practicing Kung Fu since they were young. Grand Faction Leader Zhang … After all, he hasn't been practicing Kung Fu for long!"

"But … Grand Faction Leader Zhang captured Wang Dong of the Incense Cult. His Kung Fu … seems to have improved by leaps and bounds. He should be able to compete with us!"

Xue Qing was still worried. "Since Grand Faction Leader Zhang's Kung Fu has reached such a high level, why didn't the senior work harder?"

Chang Ge and Chen Chen heard Xue Qing complaining about the so-called immortal senior, Zhang Xiaohua. They laughed in their hearts, but they couldn't show it. They could only stammer. "Perhaps … that senior has his own considerations!"

"The problem is that the Misty School's Kung Fu is about to be picked by others. Isn't he worried?" Xue Qing said impatiently.

"Shh, Hall Leader Xue, Grand Faction Leader Zhang is here!" Aunt Qin's eyes were sharp. She had already noticed the meeting hall and immediately reminded him.

Xue Qing looked up. As expected, several people walked out of the meeting hall. Hu Yunyi walked in the front, followed by Li Jian, Liu Qingyang, and Zhang Xiaohu.

Zhang Xiaohu held the Blue Water Sword in his hand and was expressionless.

Hu Yunyi walked to the front of the square and looked around at the crowd. Before he could speak, he coughed rapidly. He coughed so hard that his back bent. Li Jian quickly stepped forward and patted his back. He wanted to send a wisp of True Qi into his body, but Hu Yunyi lowered his head and raised his hand. He waved it vigorously and signaled him to stop.

After a while, Hu Yunyi caught his breath and took out a jade bottle. He poured out a pill and put it into his mouth. His pale face gradually became rosy. Then he said in a low voice, "The meridians in my lungs are damaged. I can't take external Inner Qi. The more I send it in, the worse it will be!"

Li Jian sighed. He wanted to ask more, but after looking around the square, he took two steps back.

"Brothers of the Misty School ~" Hu Yunyi took two steps forward and said loudly, "Whether it's the brothers who have just joined the Misty School or the brothers who have gone through great changes in the Misty School, you must know who I am!

However, I would like to introduce myself. I am Hu Yunyi, the Eldest Senior Brother of the original Misty School's Sect Master Ou Peng. I am also the original Grand Elder of the Misty School! "

At that moment, Hu Yunyi's Inner Qi had not fully recovered and he could not circulate it. Although his voice was loud, it could not reach the ears of everyone in the square. However, everyone listened quietly, so his voice could barely reach their ears.

"Perhaps many of the Misty School's disciples are dissatisfied with me. They are muttering in their hearts, 'If I didn't come, Zhang Xiaohu, your Sect Master Zhang, would have run the Misty School well.

You are all looking forward to the reunion of the Misty School's disciples, but now that we are back, we are immediately fighting for the position of Sect Master. Wouldn't that disappoint you? "

"Boom!" The disciples could no longer hold back and began discussing in low voices. However, Hu Yunyi's voice had long been drowned out by everyone's voices.

Li Jian took a look and said loudly, "Disciples, be silent. Listen to Elder Hu!"

His voice was leisurely transmitted into every disciple's ears. The disciples' hearts trembled and they all shut their mouths.

Hu Yunyi smiled bitterly and said, "I know what you are thinking, but … I have no other choice.

Everyone knows that Zhang Xiaohu's position as Sect Master was given to him by Abbess Jing Yi from the Cult of Fragrance. Even if we are the ones who elected him, but … Zhang Xiaohu's seniority is low and his martial arts is weak. How can we convince the others?

Although the heroes of the pugilistic world won't say it in front of us, who knows what they will say behind our backs!

Everyone doesn't want others to point at their backs and say, 'The Misty School's Sect Master was appointed by the Cult of Fragrance and is a puppet of the Cult of Fragrance!' "

"No!!!" The disciples behind Shui Yupeng shouted in unison.

The other disciples were about to speak, but Li Jian waved his hand and they all shut up.

"When I came three days ago, I made a big deal out of this. I'm sure the pugilistic world has already heard about it. No matter what they thought in the past, they will definitely look at the Misty School in a different light now.

They will know that the Misty School is not a pawn of the Cult of Fragrance. It is a truly independent Misty School! "

Zhang Xiaohu heard this and couldn't help but laugh secretly. "How … pompous!

If it weren't for the Soul Scaring Pill, wouldn't Ming Qing and the rest have already jumped out? "

He looked at Ming Qing, Gao Kunheng, and the rest. They were all lazy and didn't take Hu Yunyi's words to heart.

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohu had an extremely absurd feeling. Hu Yunyi … was like a person displaying his slight skill in front of an expert. He was holding an axe and playing with it while talking about exchanging pointers.

But who didn't know how to deceive oneself?

"Of course, this competition is also a test for Zhang Xiaohu. Since he wants to be the Sect Master of the Misty School, he must have been prepared for this kind of test. Don't you think so?

Zhang Xiaohu? "

Seeing that Hu Yunyi was looking at him, Zhang Xiaohu grinned and said, "Elder Hu is right. How can this disciple not listen to Elder Hu's arrangements?"

Hu Yunyi ignored the sarcasm in Zhang Xiaohu's words and continued, "Only a Sect Master who has passed this test can be the true Sect Master of the Misty School!"

If it was any other day, they would be applauding and praising him.

But other than the cheers of the people behind Shui Yupeng, the other places were cold and cheerless.

Hu Yunyi didn't seem to be embarrassed. He smiled and said, "Heaven knows this old man's heart for the Misty School. Although I don't have everyone's understanding now, you will know in the future."

Then, he pointed at Shui Yupeng and said, "Vice Sect Master Shui was personally appointed by the previous Sect Master of the Misty School, Ou Peng. Her loyalty and talent have been recognized by Sect Master Ou. She has the ability and reason to take over the responsibility left behind by Sect Master Ou. Only she can stop the mouths of the people of Jianghu!"

"However, the Misty School isn't a place where one person has the final say. This old man can't arbitrarily decide the candidate for the Sect Master of the Misty School. Therefore, this old man used a martial arts competition that is commonly seen in Jianghu to let everyone decide who is the most suitable Sect Master of the Misty School!"

"Of course, this is also an excellent opportunity for Zhang Xiaohu. Let him use martial arts to show the heroes of Jianghu that he is not a puppet of the Incense Cult. He has the ability to resist the Incense Cult's orders!"

Then, he turned his head to Zhang Xiaohu, as if hinting for Zhang Xiaohu to speak.

"You still want to pretend to be obedient after getting such a good deal?"

Zhang Xiaohu was slightly angered. Even though Hu Yunyi was eloquent enough to talk about the pros and cons of the matter and mentioned that he had no intention of interfering with the selection of the Sect Master and only wanted to provide an explanation to the entire Ethereal Sect, Zhang Xiaohu did not know whether to laugh or cry at his point of view. Hu Yunyi had chased him down from the position of Sect Master and even gave him a dignified reason to thank him and express his acceptance of the matter. Wasn't this … just slapping his own face?

Zhang Xiaohu walked forward and waved the Jade Water Sword in his hand. He said in a low voice, "If you want to fight, I'll fight. Why are you being so noisy?"

"Good ~" A voice of praise came from the lecture hall. "If you want to fight, I'll fight. Mighty Sect Master Zhang!"

This voice was the spark that lit the fuse. Another wave of cheers came from the square.

"If you want to fight, I'll fight …"

"Grand Gang Leader Zhang, you're mighty!"
