Chapter 12709: Unexpected complications
When Zhao Hai heard what Liefeng said, he couldn't help but smile, and then he said in a deep voice: "I'm not going to do anything, I'm going to keep a low profile. This time we are forcing those people to recognize me as the young sect master. position, so I don’t plan to do too much next. Anyway, most of the people in the Fire Phoenix Sect are our own, so there is nothing to worry about.”
Liefeng and the others also nodded. Zhao Hai looked at Liefeng and then said: "In the next period of time, our sect will still keep a low profile. You should also know that the current situation of the sect will change in a short period of time." , the sect leader's successor has been changed twice. In the eyes of other sects, Huo Feng Zong is afraid that it will decline, so they may make some small moves, especially in Jiehai, and we must also pay attention to the attitude of the Presbyterian Council. The Presbyterian Council supported us before because I seemed to be dying of old age at that time. The Jingan defense line is there, so he can treat me as half of himself. People, but now they have become the Young Sect Master, it is hard to say what kind of attitude they have, so we still have to pay more attention to them. Other than that, there is nothing else to pay attention to. Anyway, Liu Yi will retire soon. After he retires, I will become the clan leader. Lord, it's not too late to make some changes then." Everyone nodded, Zhao Hai looked at the time, and then said: "Okay, you all can go down, there will be a meeting tomorrow, I really want to see it. Let’s see if the core members of these sects will give me the position of young sect leader.”
As soon as he heard what Zhao Hai said, Li Feng said: "I don't think they dare not give the position of young master to you, right? Aren't they afraid that the disciples below will rebel?" Li Feng really thinks that Zhao Hai's This worry is somewhat unnecessary.
When Zhao Hai heard what he said, he smiled slightly and said: "What you said makes some sense, but there are always exceptions. I am worried that these people, after sitting in high positions for a long time, they will not want to believe it. What can the disciples below do, and this time we are forcing them to admit my identity. They may not be happy in their hearts, but it depends on their ability. If they don't have the courage, are they smart enough? If they are smart enough, they won't do that. If they have the courage, then they will do that. Everything is still undecided. Okay, you can go back." In response, he stood up, bowed to Zhao Hai, then turned around and left. After Zhao Hai waited for a few people to leave, he returned to the quiet room and went directly to meditate on the law.
The next day, the conference was held as scheduled. After the conference was held, Zhao Hai also came to participate. When Zhao Hai walked into the conference hall, many people looked at Zhao Hai, and their eyes were full of inquiry. Zhao Hai didn't care, he just found his place and sat there quietly. Only when someone came in, he would salute to the person. Otherwise, he had been very quiet. And his attitude surprised everyone.
Finally, after everyone arrived, Liu Yi came in. As soon as he came in, everyone saluted him, and then Liu Yi sat directly on the main seat. After sitting on the main seat, Liu Yi Then he glanced at everyone, and then said: "I think everyone sitting here knows the purpose of convening this conference, so I won't beat around the bush. Let's talk about it. Everyone in my heart Who will be the next sect master? Let us all discuss it together. This matter will be decided. After all, it is impossible for our sect to never have a young sect master. If there is no young sect master, what will happen to our sect? Stability will also have a great impact. Come on, everyone, let's talk." After that, Liu Yi sat there and looked at everyone, waiting for everyone to speak, but for a while, no one spoke. , after a while Lie Xing suddenly said: "Now among the disciples in the sect, many people say that they want Lin Ze to be the young sect master. I think what they say makes sense, but it is not completely reasonable. The young master of our sect cannot be decided so hastily just because of their wishes, so I think it would be better for us to choose another disciple to be the young master. What do you think?" Lie Xing said this? As he spoke, he glanced at Liefeng and Zhao Hai. There was no expression on his face, but what he said made Liefeng frown. Lie Xing had not discussed it with him, or even informed him. Not even a moment, which made Liefeng a little unsure for a moment. He didn't know what Lie Xing's words meant. Why did he say this? Could it be that he really didn't want Zhao Hai to be the young sect leader? You must know that Zhao Hai being the young sect leader is good for them, but now he openly expresses his opposition, which makes Liefeng a little confused as to what he wants to do.
What surprised Liefeng even more was that the families who had good relations with the Liefeng family, or those who had good relations with the Wu family and the Yi family, reconsidered one by one and expressed their approval. However, it was the Zhou family, and they all He didn't speak, and Zhou Wubing was sitting there with a frown on his face. He really didn't expect that such a thing would happen. Those who were originally opposed to it clearly expressed their support for Zhao Hai last time. He became the sect leader, but those who should support him clearly showed that they did not support him. This really surprised Zhou Wubing, and at the same time made him feel very annoyed. He was about to speak, but saw Zhao Wubing Hai glanced at him, and he immediately understood what Zhao Hai meant. He just sat there without speaking. He really wanted to see how this matter would end.
Liefeng also wanted to say something at this time, but Zhao Hai also glanced at him, and he did not stand up to speak, but sat there quietly, and everyone's eyes in the hall fell on Zhao Hai. , they wanted to see Zhao Hai's reaction, but Zhao Hai sat there with a calm face, without any hesitation. The expression, but in his eyes, was with a hint of smile, and his performance made everyone stunned. They didn't know what Zhao Hai was laughing at. If anyone really knew Zhao Hai If people were present, they would definitely find that Zhao Hai was actually angry now, but he didn't show it.
Zhao Hai really didn't expect that the people here in the Fire Phoenix Sect would be so stupid. At this time, someone would jump out and stab him in the back, but he really wanted to see what these people wanted to do, so He did not speak out, nor did he let Zhou Wubing and Liefeng speak out. He just wanted to see what these people would do next.
When Liu Yi and the others saw that Zhao Hai had no reaction, they seemed to be secretly relieved. Then Liu Yi said, "That makes sense. Does anyone have any other opinions?" Although he didn't say much, it was obvious that he They support Lie Xing, which made Zhao Hai and Liefeng understand in an instant. Liu Yi and the others may have discussed it long ago, but Lie Xing just said it. The affair should have been planned together by these people. This made Zhao Hai even more curious. He really wanted to know what these people were thinking and why they wanted to report such a thing against him. They were so Doing this would be like slapping him in the face, which is not a good thing. However, Zhao Hai became even more curious as to who they would propose to be the young sect leader.
When the people below heard what Liu Yi said, they all said nothing. Instead, one by one, they all focused on Zhao Hai and several core disciples. At this time, Liu Yi said: "Then let's talk. Let’s talk about the candidate for our next sect leader.”
Wu Liang said at this time: "I think Han Zheng, the fifth core disciple, is very good. He is strong and capable of doing things. There is no problem for him to be the youngest sect leader." As soon as Wu Liang said this , and immediately ushered in the support of a group of people.
As soon as Zhao Hai heard Wu Liang's proposal, he understood in an instant why these people wanted to join him today, because these people were afraid. When these people saw that so many disciples below supported Zhao Hai, they They were afraid. They did not expect that Zhao Hai would get the support of so many people. They were worried that once Zhao Hai became the sect leader, those disciples would support Zhao Hai even more. Zhao Hai will suppress each family. At that time, everyone will be unlucky, so they don't want Zhao Hai to become the next sect leader. This is the main reason why they stabbed him in the back today, but when they think of this , Zhao Hai couldn't help but smile bitterly. These people really thought a lot, but Zhao Hai could understand it, but it didn't mean that he would accept it that way.
At this time, Han Zheng had already stood up, and he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, please allow me to say a few words. I am not as good as Junior Brother Lin Ze in terms of strength or ability to handle things, so I I think the candidate for the Young Sect Master should be Junior Brother Lin Ze, and I am really not suitable." He said this after receiving orders from Zhao Hai. Of course, he cannot be the Young Sect Master.
But Liu Yi said at this time: "Hey, Han Zheng, this is what you said. The choice of the next sect leader is not decided by you. It is decided by everyone. Everyone has already decided. You shouldn't object, and you have no right to object. Do you understand?" When Liu Yi said this, Looking directly at Liu Yi, his meaning was very clear. Liu Yi was not qualified to be the young sect leader, because this was their decision, which was equivalent to the sect's order, so of course he had no reason to refuse. There was even a hint of threat in these words, which was to let Han Zheng take over the position of the young sect leader.
Zhao Hai actually knew very well why Liu Yi and the others did this, because Han Zheng's situation was very similar to his previous situation. He did not have a big background, and although his strength was good, he could not constitute any influence for the major families. It is precisely because of this that Han Zheng kept such a low profile after becoming a core disciple, because he was very He knew clearly that he couldn't compete with others, so he just kept a low profile. Liu Yi and the others also took a fancy to Han Zheng. They felt that Han Zheng had no background and should be easy to control. Even if Han Zheng is difficult to control, they can definitely fight against him as long as they unite, so they chose Han Zheng to be the young sect leader. (End of chapter)
