Chapter 381 The Sword Questioning Ceremony

Chapter 381: Sword Questioning Ceremony

Xue Mu originally thought that people like Lin Wuya would not behave normally at the ceremony.

It is said that when he took over as the leader of the sect, his speech only contained two words: "sword practice", not to mention passing on the throne?

The people of Wenjian Sect, no matter how dissatisfied with Lin Wuya, no matter how opposed they are, they still have the most basic IQ and know that maintaining the illusion of Lin Wuya's half-step harmony is beneficial to the whole sect and themselves. The half-step nuclear weapon is no joke. Once people know that the nuclear weapon is lost, the Wenjian Sect's popularity will plummet, and coupled with the already exhausted chaos, something big will really happen.

Therefore, the news about Lin Wuya's semi-death was kept tightly hidden. In the eyes of outsiders, he was still a strong man who was half-stepping into the Tao. This time, he was passed on for seclusion. It can also be seen from this that no matter what private thoughts they have, the Wenjian sect attaches great importance to the sect in mentality, which is also a reflection of the sense of belonging and pride that has been condensed by the thousand-year-old strong sect.

But no matter how you express your intention to pass the throne only through seclusion, you can't hide the fact that you are being pushed down. It is also possible to go into seclusion without passing on the position. How come you didn’t care about anything in the past for many years, so why didn’t I see you pass on the position? Now you go into seclusion and pretend to be here instead? Xue Qingqiu also went into seclusion, so he didn't say he would pass on the throne, right?

In addition, there were faint rumors of a coup, so people basically believed that Lin Wuya did too badly and was deposed by a coup within the sect because he was still injured at the time. As for why he could still accept the reality with half-step Hedao crushing strength after he recovered from his injury, this is not known to outsiders. Anyway, the successor was Mu Jianli, so it was probably a compromise. He himself was not greedy for power, and it was his condition to ensure that his disciple would succeed.

This is a common idea, including that of the Zhengdao sect leaders and Ji Qingyuan.

So Mu Jianli told Xue Mu before that everyone in the hall seemed to be laughing at Lin Wuya's jokes. Who said he usually offended too many people?

In other words, as a top powerhouse, Lin Wuya was dethroned by his own family and was extremely humiliated. This passing ceremony should be a very painful process for him. It was also to prop up the scene for his apprentice that he could barely bear to perform the ceremony, otherwise he would not show up at all. Even if it was for his own apprentice, with his aloof and cold temperament, he would probably just pass a token and be done without saying a word.

Unexpectedly, Lin Wuya exceeded everyone's expectations and actually spoke: "Lin has been the leader of the Wenjian Sect for nearly seven years. He has been obsessed with it all day long and devoted himself to hard work. He can't go out in the world to destroy the demons, and he can't strengthen the sect internally. The disciples of the sect Yiyin failed to fulfill their responsibilities in all matters internal and external. It is a shame to be a swordsman. Any sect leader who neglects his duty should serve as a warning to others."

Although the "introspection is not deep enough" and many aspects are not mentioned, this is indeed the fault of oneself... Mu Jianli next to him was extremely surprised, and Xue Mu's eyes widened when he heard this. Was Lin Wuya being raped? The human soul passes through?

The whole audience also began to whisper, mixed with the incredible low shouts of many disciples. The whispers and low shouts of tens of thousands of people were mixed together, which was actually a roar, as loud as thunder.

Lin Wuya looked calm and continued: "Now that Mr. Lin has gained a greater understanding of the Tao, he needs to stay in seclusion for a long time and cannot manage affairs. It is necessary to choose another capable person to lead the sect. Now there is Mu Jian, the 48th generation direct disciple of our sect. Li, with orthodox qualifications, gifted talent, flawless swordsmanship, a reputation in the world, and the respect of his peers. It was unanimously decided by the elders of this sect that he can succeed to the position of the sect leader. Today, I am fortunate to invite heroes from all over the world to witness this ceremony. Since then, the world has been turbulent, and everyone has returned. We need to rely on all our comrades to help each other.”

This is too tactful to say, is it really Lin Wuya?

Don't talk about him, given the habits of swordsmen, he wouldn't have been able to speak so much during the succession of his master.

Xue Mu wanted to ask, are you looking for a gun? How much is a thousand words? Let me introduce it...

But Mo Xuexin looked at Lin Wuya solemnly and murmured to herself: "Looking back at the tip of the sword, looking back at the world of mortals, focusing on gains and losses, smiling at honor and disgrace. Lin Wuya... I'm afraid he really has the power of harmony. Enlightenment..."

Xue Mu was startled for a moment and finally understood.

Xue Qingqiu also said similar words to him. This decline in realm may not be all bad. If he can reset himself in the human world and resume the path of enlightenment, he may see it more clearly. Lin Wuya, on the other hand, reflected on his gains and losses, confessed it frankly in front of the world, and did not hold back his honor and disgrace. The biting coldness was worn away, and he became more mellow and understanding, which may have really made his Taoist heart a little deeper.

I don’t know whether I can use this to achieve harmony, but it is more interesting after all.

If you look at it from this angle, Xue Qingqiu is still at a loss. It seems that he has shielded her too much, but instead lacked such a layer.

In any case, I used to look down on Lin Wuya, but now it seems that those who can reach the top of the world have their own merits. It's just that the road is difficult and difficult for outsiders to understand, and it is definitely not the kind that I originally thought I could only get into.

On the high platform, Lin Wuya took off his sword very solemnly and handed it to Mu Jianli with both hands.

Whether Mu Jianli uses it or not, it must be her sword that is handed over in front of thousands of people.

Mu Jianli took a deep breath, took the sword solemnly, and with a "choking" sound, took it off the sheath and pointed to the sky. All the senior elders of Wenjian Sect drew their swords at the same time. Thousands of sword energy rose into the sky, entangled with each other, and formed a terrifying white light that pierced the sky. Then the white light bloomed again, and countless sword lights scattered in all directions. Like fireworks in full bloom. At the same time, on the top of the mountain in the distance, the aura of the Cauldron of Life and Death suddenly erupted. Endless vitality and will of death gathered together, and the eternal heavenly law resounded, roaring all over the sky.

Tens of thousands of disciples of Wenjian Sect all saluted: "See you, Sect Master!"

The unison of tens of thousands of people resounded through the sky, making people's eardrums hurt, but it also made people's blood boil and excited.

Xue Mu looked up at Mu Jianli on the stage and clicked his tongue. This scene is really very realistic. It’s no wonder that everyone wants to be a master. What’s interesting is that Mu Jianli herself doesn’t want to do that. Her successor is very similar to Xue Qingqiu back then, with a strong sense of chasing ducks.

At this moment, Mu Jianli was even more beautiful. There was no snow today, and the warm winter sun hung slowly in the sky. The sunlight shone on her body, leaving a hazy halo. The vast snow all around reflects the sword light in the sky. The divine light of heaven and earth gathers on top of her. She is dressed in fine clothes, with sword flowers blooming. She looks like a goddess from the Nine Heavens. Her cold face is accentuated by the divine majesty of the crowd. She is awe-inspiring and inviolable, beautiful. It's impossible to get anything.

At this moment, Xue Mu really didn't think about the trinket given to her. Instead, he only felt full of pride for her and the satisfaction in his heart for getting such a woman.

"Jianli is still young, has little knowledge, and has low cultivation. He is favored by his elders and does not abandon his fellow disciples. He is promoted as the sect master. Jianli is very scared." Mu Jianli spoke softly. Although his voice was soft, it spread far and wide, and everyone could hear it. Everyone seemed to hear her talking next to them.

Mo Xuexin whispered again: "What a genius. He can use the sword will of heaven and earth as he pleases."

Xue Mu turned to her and asked, "How old was Valley Master Mo when he entered Taoism?"

Mo Xuexin ignored him.

Xue Mu smiled and said: "Maybe twenty-seven or eight?"

That was the age when Xue Qingqiu entered the peak of Dongxu. Mo Xuexin's face was filled with anger and she said coldly: "How old am I to join the Tao? It doesn't bother Manager Xue, but I know that there are people who are twenty-seven or eighty-years-old." The heart is the only shame among super sect warriors."

Xue Mu covered his face. He was brought up and despised every day. Even your Shi Lei knows that he learns quickly...

In such a moment, I missed a few self-effacing transitional sentences from Mu Jianli on the stage. When he continued to listen, he had already reached the main topic: "I asked the Sword Sect, which has been a famous family for thousands of years and has a long history. It is the world's leader in both martial arts and Taoism, and is known as the eight sects in the world. Now the Xinyi Sect has deviated from the right path, and is boiling with selfish desires and poisoning the southeast. This will lead to self-destruction, and this sect should also take this as a lesson. In the future, all members of our sect should practice martial arts and cultivate their minds, focus on being a chivalrous person, protect the territory of Jianzhou, and practice their whole life in vain."

These words are indeed what they should be at this time. The death of the heart has greatly affected the Eight Righteous Sects, and everyone in the world will also want to know the attitudes of other sects. Mu Jianli’s first public attitude after taking office was to express his stance on this, If other sects held conferences, they would probably use similar words.

But at this time, a discordant voice came from behind Xue Mu: "Sect Master Mu said it well! Wen Jianzong oppresses the people, Jianzhou is boiling. Since Sect Master Mu is so righteous, can he dare to give an explanation to the governor in public and deal with it? Should the criminals who brutalize the people be brought to justice?"
