Now even the sect leader and the core elder want Xiao Wuji to hand over the saint treasure. If the deputy sect leader doesn't find a way, Xiao Wuji will be in danger.

Once Xiao Wuji falls into Gu Fan's hands, it will definitely be a disaster.

With Gu Fan's nature, he would definitely take away the saint's treasure from Xiao Wuji's hands, and then do some disgraceful things to Xiao Wuji.

In fact, the reason why the deputy sect leader passed the Demon-Breaking Sword to Xiao Wuji was not a momentary impulse.

Judging from the contacts during this period, the deputy sect leader has more or less knowledge of Xiao Wuji's character, character, and martial arts talent.

It is precisely because of this that he planned to teach his mantle to Xiao Wuji.

The deputy sect leader has considered all the retreat for Xiao Wuji, because he knew that once Xiao Wuji accepted the Demon-Breaking Sword, it would be equivalent to his successor. From now on, he will be qualified to compete with the other five candidates for the qualification of the next leader of the Divine Sword Sect.

You should know that in the Divine Sword Sect, in addition to the sect leader, there are five major factions, one of which is the deputy sect leader, and there are four core elders.

Among the six powerful figures in the Divine Sword Sect, each of them can choose to have a disciple who inherits his or her legacy.

In addition to the deputy sect leader, the other five people had already selected disciples who inherited their legacy.

Now, the deputy sect leader handed over this quota to Xiao Wuji. Xiao Wuji is holding the Demon-Breaking Sword in his hand, which is equivalent to obtaining the identity of a candidate.

After seeing this scene, almost everyone present was stunned.

They couldn't believe that the deputy sect leader actually handed over the Demon-Destroying Sword to Xiao Wuji.

"Second Master, you must not act irresponsible!"

"This Demon-Destroying Sword is of great importance. You can't just choose one person to teach it!"

"In my opinion, Xiao Wuji has just entered our Divine Sword Sect, and it has been less than a year since he was about to examine the character of this person!"

"Yes, deputy sect leader, you must think about this matter clearly. This is not a trivial matter."

...

Several core elders present advised.

After all, having the Demon-Breaking Sword is equivalent to having the identity of the candidate for the sect leader, and it also has a great impact on the other candidate disciples.

At this moment, Gu Fan also looked over and said to the deputy sect leader, "I know you want to protect Xiao Wuji, but in order to protect him, I handed over the Demon-Destroying Sword and passed on the identity of that candidate to him. Do you think this is worth it?"

Not only Gu Fan was advising, but even the old man in gray robe advised, "You should think about it carefully, we will give you time."

But the deputy sect leader shook his head and said, "I have considered this matter very clearly. With Xiao Wuji's nature, I believe that he will shine in the future!"

Then the deputy sect leader's eyes fell on Xiao Wuji and asked, "Are you willing to inherit my mantle and become my disciple?"

At this time, Xiao Wuji was very moved, because he knew that in order to protect himself, the deputy sect leader would offend so many powerful figures in the Divine Sword Sect, which was really rare.

Xiao Wuji knelt on one knee, clasped his fists with his hands, and said in a low voice, "Disciple is willing to inherit your mantle and hold the Demon-Breaking Sword from now on."

After seeing Xiao Wuji agreeing, the deputy sect leader nodded with relief. Then he helped Xiao Wuji up and said, "You are in charge of the Demon-Breaking Sword. From now on, you will be one of the six candidates. No one can force you to hand over the saint treasure on you."

Because this candidate has a very special identity and is protected by the rules of the Divine Sword Sect, even Gu Fan is the core elder, he has no right to force Xiao Wuji.

However, in order to obtain the saint treasure on Xiao Wuji, Gu Fan could do whatever he wanted.

Of course he wouldn't let this happen.

At this time, Gu Fan pondered for a moment and said, "Everyone, if you want to become the next leader of my Divine Sword Sect, you need strong strength, outstanding martial arts talent, tough heart and noble character. Xiao Wuji has just entered our Divine Sword Sect and has not even been a year. How do we believe that he has these qualities?"

After Gu Fan said this, everyone present nodded. After all, Xiao Wuji had been to the Divine Sword Sect for too short, and it was not easy to gain everyone's trust.

At this time, the deputy sect leader's eyes fell on Gu Fan and asked, "What do you want?"

Gu Fan suddenly burst into laughter and said, "If you want to obtain such an identity, if you can't even reach the most basic strength, you won't deserve that qualification at all."

After saying that, he said, "I suggest that several other candidates test Xiao Wuji's strength together. If Xiao Wuji's strength cannot reach it, I'd better leave this Demon-Destroying Sword to others." The other candidates are Chen Ping'an, the disciple of the sect leader, and the disciples of several other core elders.

Moreover, all these disciples have obtained their true teachings and their cultivation is extremely powerful. However, Xiao Wuji has just entered the Divine Sword Sect and has not even enough time to practice the deputy leader's mantle. This is a very unfair thing for Xiao Wuji.

The deputy sect leader said, "Gu Fan, aren't you too shameless to do this? Xiao Wuji's current strength is only at the level of the eighth level of the Martial King. If you ask him to fight against those Martial Emperor powers, wouldn't you make things difficult for him?"

Because the deputy sect leader knew very well that the candidates were not ordinary martial emperors, and even Liu Shuo was not as good as those candidates.

It is precisely because of this that the deputy sect leader is so worried about Xiao Wuji.

After hearing the deputy sect leader's words, Gu Fan laughed and said, "If you even question Xiao Wuji's strength, then you should take it back into the Demon-Breaking Sword."

Gu Fan's words did not hide the sarcasm at all...
