Chapter 322 - 319: Sect Leader’s Successor?
"Senior Brother, the Sect Leader has requested your presence at Qitian Peak!" On Fairy Peak, Ren Xihua respectfully came to invite Ye Zhen, which left Ye Zhen somewhat astonished.
The reason for Ye Zhen’s astonishment was mainly due to Ren Xihua’s identity.
In the past few days as Ye Zhen stayed within the sect, he had come to understand the major changes within the Qiyun Sect over the past year.
In fact, there weren’t many changes, except that six months ago, Sect Leader Guo Qijing publicly accepted two direct disciples, one being Ren Xihua, and the other the True Inheritor, Lud Shuo.
Within the sect, once someone is publicly taken as a direct disciple by the Sect Leader, it signifies one possibility—the potential future Sect Leader.
As a potential future Sect Leader, Ren Xihua personally inviting Ye Zhen made this matter quite solemn; usually, a simple Talisman Communication from Guo Qijing was enough to summon Ye Zhen.
With a mind full of doubts, Ye Zhen flew towards the Sect Council Hall at Qitian Peak.
"Senior Brother, the Sect Leader is waiting inside!" The other direct disciple of the Sect Leader, Lut Shuo, was guarding the entrance of the Council Hall and hurriedly paid his respects when he saw Ye Zhen arriving.
"Hmm," Ye Zhen responded and stepped into the Sect Council Hall, muttering to himself about the grandness of this arrangement.
In the Sect Council Hall, aside from Sect Leader Guo Qijing, Grand Elder Lut Changchuan, Second Elder Jis Che, Hong Banjiang, the Third Elder, Fourth Elder, Seventh Elder Zhongli Jing were all present, except for the Eighth Elder who was guarding the Spirit Mine. The others were all seated within.
