As the leader of the Chaoyuan Realm disciples, Zhang Danian and Xuan Qing, as the Dao Sect's senior brother, both have extremely high reputations in the Dao Sect. Especially the old disciples, many look up to them.
Daozong's public opinion naturally reached their ears. Some of their die-hard supporters reminded them worriedly.
After all, before Xu Wuzhou, the two of them were the most promising to become the successors of the Dao Sect.
Some disciples asked them to think of ways to compete with Xu Wuzhou to become the successor of the Taoist sect.
But the two of them knew that fighting was useless.
Xu Wuzhou fought against the Taoist sect with all his strength, and his golden body was already achieved. How can we fight? They are just a figure in the Taoist sect, but if they are thrown into the world, what do they mean? Who will take them seriously?
The world's geniuses only know Xu Wuzhou, but they don't know about Zhang Danian and Xuan Qing.
What's more, the two of them really admired Xu Wuzhou. In the past, Dao Zong disciples kept their tail between their legs, but now they hold their heads high and chest high. Who dares to bully Dao Zong disciples at will?
All of this was brought about by Xu Wuzhou.
Are they going to snatch the heirs of the Dao Sect? Not to mention whether they can snatch them or not, what's the use of snatching them?
In fact, they knew in their hearts that the sect master had no intention of establishing them, and they also knew some things about Mo Daoxian.
After thinking about this, they don't care about external things. They focus on cultivation and only want to make further progress in their cultivation. This is the real thing.
But just when they were deaf to what was happening outside the window, a disciple came to tell them that Xu Wuzhou had come to visit them.
The two of them were confused and didn't understand what Xu Wuzhou was doing at this time.
But in Daozong, they were not qualified to reject Xu Wuzhou, so the two of them went to see Xu Wuzhou together.
As soon as they appeared in the main hall, they saw Xu Wuzhou walking quickly in front of them and said urgently: "Senior Brother Zhang, Senior Brother Xuan, I have something to ask of you, and I hope you can help me."
Seeing Xu Wuzhou like this, the two of them thought something big had happened and asked anxiously: "What happened to Daozong?"
Xu Wuzhou's face showed guilt, he gritted his teeth, and blamed himself: "It's all my fault, junior brother. I don't know why, but the senior brothers suddenly got together and wanted to go to the sect master to ask me to be the successor of the Dao Sect.
How can this mean that, as disciples, it is our duty to keep ourselves safe, how can we force the master of the palace, the master of the peak? What's more, how can I become a successor if I am so virtuous?
So before all the disciples take action, please ask two senior brothers to come forward and make sure to evacuate them. The stability of Dao Sect is the most important, and you must not cause inappropriate things because of me."
The two were slightly startled, never expecting that Xu Wuzhou's request was this. They looked at Xu Wuzhou and saw worry and panic on Xu Wuzhou's face.
Zhang Danian and Xuan Qing looked at each other and said, "Junior brother, you want us to stop them from asking the sect master to make you the successor of Dao Sect?"
"Yes! The two senior brothers are highly respected, and they will listen only if you come forward with your reputation. I hope that the two senior brothers can help me this time. I am very grateful." Xu Wuzhou said urgently.
Xuan Qing took a breath and said, "Junior Brother Xu doesn't want to become the successor of Dao Sect?"
"Senior brother, what did you say? How long have I been in the Dao Sect? It's been less than a year. I know myself, so how can I covet the position of the true successor? What's more, the sect leader has his own considerations for the position of the true successor. How can it be the disciple's turn to force the palace? This is trapping me.
We are in a place of injustice. I hope the two senior brothers can stop them quickly, otherwise it will be too late." Xu Wuzhou's face flushed with anxiety, and he wished he could pull them to stop them.
"Senior brother, I am requesting a letter for you. This is not a big deal. It is just an expression of my appeal. The sect leader will not blame me." Zhang Danian said again.
Xu Wuzhou said angrily: "If you express your appeal normally, the sect leader will naturally not blame you. What I'm afraid of is that once there are more people, the situation will be uncontrollable. What if some disciples get excited and do something excessive? How can you do it because of me?
Let my brothers be punished because of me.
What's more, this appeal shouldn't be something that a disciple can raise. I hope that the two senior brothers will come forward to stop it. You two are highly respected, and they will definitely listen to you if you come forward, so there is no need to trouble the two senior brothers."
Xu Wuzhou had an anxious and worried look on his face, and his noble image of selflessness and selflessness was clearly revealed as he thought of his brothers wholeheartedly.
Zhang Danian and Xuan Qing looked at each other, then looked directly at Xu Wuzhou for a while, and then Zhang Danian said: "Okay! We will stop it, don't worry. It's all a trivial matter, you don't need to worry so much."
"Really!" Xu Wuzhou was overjoyed and breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'll trouble you two senior brothers."
"Well! You go back first!" Zhang Danian said, "We will prepare now and go to dissuade them."
"Okay!" Xu Wuzhou thanked him for a while before leaving.
Xuan Qing looked at Xu Wuzhou's retreating figure and asked Zhang Danian: "Are you really going to stop it?"
Zhang Danian smiled bitterly and said: "Junior Brother Xu, I have little contact with him, so I don't know if he is really innocent or really sinister."
"How do you say this?" Xuan Qing said.
"We have been defeated by his general." Zhang Danian said, "Originally we just wanted to practice well, but now that he is here, we can't do anything unless we show up."
Xuan Qing was confused and didn't understand.
Zhang Danian explained: "With his current reputation, if we step in to stop him, what will the disciples think? Have you ever thought about it?"
One sentence instantly inspired Xuan Qing.
They are very aware of the general trend of public opinion. Most of the disciples of Jiu Peak are going to write a letter to force Xu Wuzhou to have an imperial edict. Now they stand up to stop it? What do many disciples think?
There is nothing wrong with others trying to dissuade them, but it is precisely because the two of them are so prestigious that they cannot do this.
If they did, those disciples would definitely think that they were coveting the position of successor to the Dao Sect, so they hurriedly stood up to stop them.
But now that Xu Wuzhou is here, it's not enough for them to pretend they don't know what to do. They must do something.
Although Xu Wuzhou came to ask them to dissuade him, he couldn't do what he was trying to dissuade. If he did it to others, regardless of whether it was Xu Wuzhou who asked him to do it, he would definitely feel that they had selfish motives.
And Xu Wuzhou just said that he is dedicated to his brothers. In this comparison, the gap immediately emerged.
Therefore, they have only one choice, which is to submit a letter on the side of the brothers. In this way, they can maintain their former reputation.
This can even make their reputation even greater, because the disciples will praise them for their selflessness and their willingness to give up the true inheritance of the Dao Sect.
"You think... our Junior Brother Xu, is he a true gentleman or a hypocrite?" Xuan Qing couldn't help but laugh bitterly at this time.
Zhang Danian said: "Then do you hope he is a gentleman or a swindler?"
Xuan Qing shook his head, he didn't know what to say.
If Xu Wuzhou's actions just came from his heart, he would truly be a sincere gentleman.
But if it was intentional...it would be too scheming.
If a successor of Daozong is such a person, is he good or bad?
Xuan Qing couldn't help but feel worried about this.
"Do we really want to come forward? If we come forward, it will be equivalent to the entire Dao Sect disciples asking him to be the successor of the Dao Sect. If this happens..."
"Let the sect master worry about these things. Besides, our sect master is not someone to be trifled with. If Xu Wuzhou is really a yin, can he be as yin as the sect master?"
