Chapter 609: Sect Master
The voices of discussion continued to surge in like waves, one wave following another, and countless gazes converged on Chen Qing from every direction.
Within those gazes there was awe, there was shock, there was disbelief, and there was deep wariness.
It was only when an aged voice rang out that the vast tide of sound suddenly fell quiet.
"Silence."
Luan Feng stepped slowly down from the stone chair, his gaze sweeping over the entire gathering.
The voices of discussion on the plaza ceased in that instant.
Thousands of gazes turned as one toward that aged figure.
Luan Feng's gaze finally settled on Chen Qing, and only then did he speak in a resonant voice, "In today's contest for the Sect Master's position, in accordance with the sect's founding codes, Myriad Techniques Peak Master Chen Qing challenged Sect Master Jiang Lishan. The contest was conducted fairly, and the outcome has been decided. Chen Qing is victorious."
"In accordance with the Tianbao Upper Sect's founding codes, the victor of a challenge for the Sect Master's position shall inherit the position of Sect Master."
