After becoming the prince of the demon clan, the beautiful master pampers him every day

Chapter 268 Temporary Head

Before he finished speaking, Xu Zhuo suddenly stood up from his chair, walked to the bottom of the platform, stood in front of the disciples, and bowed deeply.

"Grandfather, Xu Zhuo is guilty of not distinguishing right from wrong and maliciously speculating on the relationship between the ancestor and the Demon Lord. Please punish him."

As soon as he said this, the disciples and elders who were originally confused immediately understood the purpose of everyone gathering here today.

For a moment, everyone's faces looked a little strange. To be frank, Xu Zhuo knew a little bit of the inside story. At least it was certain that the old ancestor had nothing to do with the Demon Lord. He was just joking.

But other people are not aware of the inside story. This matter has been fermenting for a few days, and in their perception, it is the fact.

Now that Xu Zhuo suddenly said that he was making malicious speculations and said it so seriously, most people's first reaction was that he was trying to cover up something.

There are even some people who don't show it on their faces, but they are already screaming in their hearts that it's real!

Xu Zhuo knew clearly in his heart that the ancestor was definitely not joking when he made such a big fuss today. He was afraid that he really had to find the source, and the others who participated might also be punished to varying degrees.

By doing this he is trying to curry favor with his ancestors. As the leader, he sets an example by admitting his mistakes, and the others will be more or less moved.

On the other hand, it is also a reminder for them to admit their mistakes quickly and proactively, so that the punishment may be lighter. Putting aside the relationship between them as fellow disciples, even the friendship of gossiping together is worth doing so.

Of course, if they take the initiative, the ancestors will be in a good mood and the punishment can be lighter.

Sang Yunqi knew what he was up to, but this saved him a lot of trouble, so he leaned back in his chair.

He opened his lips and said, "Well, as the head of the sect, I have not made progress and neglected my duties. I will temporarily step down as the head of the sect and reflect on my mistakes."

After saying that, he glanced down and saw Chen Xiu standing in the front center of all the disciples.

Sang Yunqi continued, "The position of the headmaster will be temporarily taken over by the main peak's eldest disciple Chen Xiu."

Although this matter has not been announced before, the elders have basically agreed to it and there is no reaction.

But the disciples lined up in the square below were suddenly in an uproar, and they didn't even care about the many elders sitting up there.

"Senior Brother Chen Xiu is going to be the head of the sect?!"

"Isn't this a bit too frivolous? The leader just said a few words of gossip, and he was fired like this?"

"In the world of cultivation, there has never been a leader at the Nascent Soul stage. They are at least at the Spiritualization stage."

"Old Ancestor, are you abusing your power for personal gain? How can the head of the sect be replaced so easily?"

"Oh, right, when I came here just now, I saw that it was Senior Brother Chen Xiu who rang the bell. Could it be that he went to the ancestor to tell him about this, and now that he has found a new supporter, he turns around and sells out the leader?"

"I think there's nothing wrong with Senior Brother Chen Xiu. He was the one who handled many things before, and he was only taking over temporarily."

"After the headmaster has reflected on his mistakes, he can come back and continue to be the headmaster."

"I think it's okay. The next head of the sect was originally destined to be Senior Brother Chen Xiu."

All kinds of chaotic discussions reached Chen Xiu's ears, but he was unmoved. After the old ancestor finished speaking, he took a step forward respectfully, knelt down and saluted.

What followed was Chen Xiu expressing his loyalty, and Sang Yunqi giving him some encouragement. Chen Xiu remained very calm throughout the process.

However, when he saw his leader smiling happily and impatiently throwing the leader's token to him, he couldn't help but twitch his lips.

He suddenly didn't want to take this thing anymore, but in the end he still took it solemnly.

In fact, he had been prepared for this matter a long time ago, but the fact that the ancestor brought it up today, especially at this juncture, was somewhat beyond his expectations.

He also thought about those who agreed or opposed, and even some of his disciples' conspiracy theories, but after all these years, he knew clearly that these were not important. It all depended on what he did in the future and whether he could convince these people.

This is the path that every superior must go through. He had been prepared for it, and the fact that the ancestor chose this time might be a test for him.

After receiving the things and listening to some words of encouragement from his master, he retreated.

Qi Yu saw that he lowered his head and looked at him worriedly.

Just now, while Chen Xiu was going forward to go through the process, he had already severely frightened those disciples who dared to gossip. There were a few who were not convinced, and he planned to have a good talk with them after they dispersed.

Chen Xiu felt his gaze, looked over and shook his head slightly, indicating that everything was fine.

Xu Zhuo also stood up and sat at the end of the elders' seats.

Logically, he should have left immediately, but he really wanted to watch the fun, and seeing that the old man didn't say anything, he felt at ease sitting there.

To be honest, the elders knew more about Sang Yunqi. They looked at each other, then walked down together and apologized to Sang Yunqi.

Among them, Li Wen’s master, Elder Qin, made a big splash, as it was she who spread the news that Sang Yunqi wore a middle-length shirt.

Chu Xinglan couldn't help but sigh, it's true that birds of a feather flock together, and like disciple, like teacher.

After Elder Qin finished speaking, Sang Yunqi suddenly smiled. It was very nice, but in Elder Qin's eyes it was too scary, so creepy.

Sang Yunqi gritted his teeth and said, "You're very good," and asked them to step aside for the time being.

The headmaster and the elders all did so. Although the disciples still had some doubts in their hearts, none of them were stubborn and they all admitted their mistakes honestly.

In the end, there were only a few dozen people still standing in the field without moving, which was negligible considering the large number.

Chu Xinglan felt a little annoyed when watching this scene. He had thought that the rumor would spread widely, but he really didn't expect it to be so widespread.

Moreover, the lucky doll just came down and sent him a message. Even their Hanshan Temple knew about it. It was simply outrageous.

It is definitely useless to clarify this matter now, unless they directly announce to the world that they have become a Taoist couple. This explosive news may cover up the matter, but there will definitely be no end to the criticism afterwards.

Chu Xinglan didn't want to announce it in such a hurry. Firstly, it was a bit too fast. Secondly, he hoped that after the two of them announced it, they would receive many blessings, saying that they were a perfect match, made in heaven.

Chu Xinglan rubbed his eyebrows and suddenly lost interest in the culprits below. He moved closer to Sang Yunqi and whispered.

"Master, I'm going back first. I'm a little sleepy."

Sang Yunqi glanced at him and saw that he was indeed a little tired, but definitely not sleepy. After thinking for a while, he replied.

"Wait for me a moment, I'll go back with you."

After saying that, he looked at Chen Xiu below.

"It's up to you to decide how to deal with this matter."
