Ten of the Thirteen Hall Masters came, and the tenth one finally came back.
There are three left, one is missing, one is missing, and one is vacant because the hall leader died.
The others were already sitting in their seats.
The main seat is empty.
There is a seat on the left and right of the Lord. Sitting on the right is Miao Haocang, which is the seat of the Holy Son.
The corresponding position of the saint on the left is vacant, and the saint has not yet returned to the church.
Except for the great elder, it was rare for all the twelve elders to come out of seclusion and gather together. They sat on the right side, and on the left was the head of the Thirteenth Hall.
When Ye Wu walked in, everyone's eyes in the hall fell on him.
Facing so many looks, Ye Wu didn't change his expression. As long as it wasn't the kind he had never encountered before, he felt that he could bear it quite well.
For example, the situation in front of him is often the same at the Qijue Palace Conference. He is always the last one to arrive, and then sits on the main seat under the attention of everyone.
So after Ye Wu glanced around, his eyes were fixed on the main seat.
After all, this place is different from Qijue Palace. Does he want to sit on it?
He looked at Miao Haocang again. Miao Haocang was the Holy Son, so his status was not lower than Miao Haocang, so it was okay to sit on it?
The Young Palace Master of Qijue Palace is sitting in the main seat, so the successor of the Demon Lord can be regarded as the Young Master, right?
Ye Wu thought about it, then took a step forward and strode towards the master's seat.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Ye Wu rushed towards the master, and everyone's expressions suddenly changed.
Especially as Ye Wu got closer and closer to the main seat, many people's eyes changed more obviously, staring at Ye Wu's figure, wondering if he really dared to sit on it.
But Ye Wu really dared.
He walked up without blushing, turned around, and sat down.
A new figure appeared on the spot that had been vacant for a hundred years.
Miao Haocang looked at him for a while, chuckled lightly, and looked away.
But the elders and hall masters below did not take it back, they could no longer hold back.
"Isn't this unreasonable?" An elder spoke first.
"The Demon Lord has not yet been born, so how could he be sitting there?"
Ye Wu looked over, and was about to say that it wouldn't be a bad idea if he moved, but the Mirror Hall Master over there spoke first.
"It's really strange. There are only the positions of the Holy Son, the Holy Daughter, and the Hall Master and Elder here. As the successor of the Demon Lord, he can't sit in any of them. Naturally, only the Master position is more suitable."
"But after all, he is just a successor, not the real demon lord."
"The successor also has a higher status than others, doesn't he?" Mirror Hall Master was not polite at all.
"Hua Yuejing, who doesn't know that you always like to kneel down and lick the Demon Lord!" Pan Ningyun sneered.
"You haven't become a demon lord yet, and you're already attached to it? You're like this now, and yet..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw the Master of Hall of Mirrors appearing in front of her, face to face with her.
"Pan Ningyun, you are just a beast, don't challenge my patience." The mirror hall master said with a smile.
Pan Ningyun's face darkened.
The two of them had been at odds in their early years.
"Okay, let's put aside your grievances. What we are discussing is about the status of the successor." Qilian Baitao said slowly.
The Mirror Hall Master sneered and sat back in his seat.
"Successors always have to succeed, it's the same." Ci Qiancheng said.
"It's different!" An elder immediately retorted.
"The successor may not be able to shoulder this responsibility. His strength is low, and he is new to the Demon Cult. In terms of qualifications, he is not as high as the Holy Son!"
"According to the rules, he is the Demon Lord! He was the one who killed the previous Demon Lord!" An elder beside him also spoke.
"Who knows how he killed the previous demon lord?" The elder immediately retorted.
The Master of the Hall of Mirrors suddenly smiled and said: "Isn't that right? When did the Demon Cult pay attention to the method of killing? No matter what the strength is, you can sit on it if you kill it. Isn't this the rule all the time?"
Her position is in third place, and there are several hall masters behind her who are stronger than her, but no one questions her position because her fighting ability is much stronger than her actual strength.
The elder was speechless after being rebutted.
"I believe that over the years, the Holy Son has worked hard and even delayed his own cultivation for the sake of the Demon Religion. If not for the Holy Son's efforts over the past hundred years, the situation of our Demon Religion would have been even more serious. If we really want to succeed the Demon Lord, I will still support the Holy Son!"
"That's right, here and now, rules are dead and people are alive. If you kill the Demon Lord, you don't necessarily become the Demon Lord. He can be the next Holy Son. I agree with this."
"Since he is called the successor, his qualifications are ahead of the Son, so why can't he inherit?"
Everyone has his own opinion.
It's just that those who support Ye Wu are in the minority, and the majority are against it.
Of course, those who oppose it may not necessarily support Miao Haocang. Only some of the opponents support Miao Haocang, and the rest have no hope for anyone.
"Now that the Demonic Cult is declining, we need a leader to lead the entire Demonic Cult! The Demonic Cult can no longer be a mess!"
"Then the candidate for leader cannot be him. In terms of prestige and ability, the Holy Son is even better!"
"The Holy Son is the Holy Son, and the Demon Lord is the Demon Lord. These are two different things!"
"But leaders are not two different things. Who can lead the Demon Cult to a better place? Are we supposed to believe in a little baby with no hair at all?"
"Yes, the Holy Son's ability has been seen by you and me, and his strength is also obvious to all. The two are not comparable at all! Originally, before the successor of the Demon Lord appeared, the Holy Son should have succeeded!"
"But the successor of the Demon Lord has appeared, so we must follow the rules!"
"When did our demon sect ever care about rules?"
The crowd's voices gradually became louder, and their tone also contained a bit of anger.
The two parties were quarreling with each other. If both parties didn't still have the dignity of masters, they would probably stand up and point their noses at each other and curse.
But despite this, they were also very noisy.
"You keep talking and making it seem like you are the one who determines the Demon Lord. Aren't you saying that you are the one who determines the Demon Lord?" Ye Wu suddenly said.
He really couldn't listen anymore.
The hall fell into silence for an instant. The few people who had been quarreling just now seemed to have their necks strangled, and no one could say another word.
Yeah, what are they arguing about?
It's useless to argue!
"Since it is the Devil's Palace, let me and the Holy Son take the test together. It will decide who is who. Isn't this such a simple matter?"
Ye Wu said somewhat speechlessly.
"You guys have been arguing for a long time and haven't come to a conclusion. Why are you arguing so late at night without sleeping? Do you want to argue until tomorrow?"
Everyone in the hall fell into silence again.
They were a bit embarrassed, and some of them with a weird temper had raised their heads and looked at Ye Wuzai.
"As expected of the Demon Lord's successor, his tone is just different!"
Ye Wuwenyan showed a smile, which made Miao Haocang on the side feel a little familiar.
