After whipping this guy away, Yuan Ren turned around and left. Lin Yu and the two clasped their fists at Yuan Ren and returned to the cave again.
After continuing to seal the entrance of the cave, Lin Yu and the two entered a state of cultivation and no longer thought about the chores outside.
Lin Yu was inside the cave and Xu Zhenzhen was outside, also worried about affecting the other's practice.
At this moment, Lin Yu could be said to be oblivious to what was going on outside the window and was only focused on practicing. He took out five million spirit stones at one time and placed them in the cave for the two of them to practice.
It was the first time that he had so many spiritual stones for him to practice, and now Lin Yu was at ease.
Xu Zhenzhen was also very comfortable. He also copied the cultivation experience he had received from the Lotus Sect Master before, which was of great benefit to the two of them in improving their realm.
In just two days, Lin Yu advanced to the seventh level of the Qi Refining Stage. Lin Yu did not open his eyes and continued to move around to improve his cultivation.
Xu Zhenzhen's progress here is also very smooth. He has advanced to the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage in half a month. He continues to practice and has no intention of going out.
At this time, twenty-eight monks gathered in the sect. The Lotus Sect Master summoned these people in the square. As for Lin Yu and Xu Zhenzhen, they did not notify them. This was Elder Yuan's intention, knowing that they were at a critical moment in their cultivation.
"Everyone, today Lianhua and I are leaving the sect for a long journey. If we are not careful, we may not return to the sect for decades or hundreds of years. Therefore, before we leave, we want to select a monk to take on the responsibilities of the sect. The two of us
Retreat to the position of elder.
For the sake of fairness and justice, I suggest that everyone make the selection together, and of course, try to choose a higher-level monk, after all, choosing a sect leader also requires comprehensive consideration."
Elder Yuan Ren spoke loudly and conveyed his meaning.
In fact, the people below have known about this situation for a long time, and they don't have any surprised expressions at this moment.
"Everyone, I am not running for election this time. My future position will be sect deacon. Let the election begin now!"
The person speaking was Lu Qun. Due to his withdrawn personality, Lu Qun felt that he was not qualified for the position of sect leader.
Everyone below hopes it will be Lu Qun, but now Lu Qun has no such idea, and can only choose from several foundation-building monks and the only golden elixir monk.
Everyone knows that Liu Wei was beaten by Elder Yuan before, so some people have also taken this into consideration. However, Liu Wei is also dealing with this matter these days and has won over many of his own people.
Anonymous election, this matter is very simple, there are not many people in the key sect, and everyone quickly handed over the jade slips.
The Lotus Master came to read out the voting results, and everyone around him waited quietly for the announcement.
"The statistical results have come out. Although Lu Qun said in advance that he would not participate in the vote, he still got five votes. The person with the most votes this time was Lu Qun, with fifteen votes, followed by Niu Chen and Li Quan, both with three votes.
votes, someone voted for Lin Yu in the last two votes!"
When the Lotus Master said this, he looked at the people around him. The people below had different expressions, but Liu Wei was the most happy. Although he was still lowering his head, he could no longer hide the happiness in his heart.
Many people have secretly sent messages of congratulations in order to curry favor with Liu Wei. Some people who did not choose Liu Wei are also sending messages of congratulations at this moment, because they do not want to cause conflicts. After all, they still have to survive in the sect in the future.
"I want to ask those who voted for Lin Yu, what do you think?
It seems inappropriate to know that Lin Yu is only a monk in the Qi refining stage, right?"
Lord Lotus asked with a smile.
The people below looked at me and I looked at you, but no one dared to speak. It was obvious that the two people who chose Lin Yu were afraid of offending Liu Wei, so they did not dare to stand up.
"Actually, even if you don't tell me, I know who chose Lin Yu, because this voting slip has your breath on it."
After the Lotus Sect Master finished speaking, he looked at the people around him calmly.
But at this moment, no one dares to stand up.
"Okay, since you don't tell me and I won't force you, this is your right.
Now everyone can speak freely and share their thoughts."
The Lotus Sect Master said calmly.
After hearing the words of the Lotus Sect Master, Liu Wei quickly stood up with a smile on his face.
"Thank you for your trust. I will do my best to serve the sect in the future, be a good sect leader, and live up to the expectations of my two seniors."
Liu Wei said loudly.
"Liu Wei, who announced you are the sect leader?
What are you messing with?
go away."
Elder Yuan glared at Liu Wei fiercely and almost reached out to slap him away.
Hearing Elder Yuan's words, Liu Wei suddenly blushed, and at the same time his mind was buzzing. At this moment, he was completely confused. He thought to himself, I have the most votes. If I am not the sect leader, who is the sect leader?
However, Liu Wei was immediately frightened when he saw Elder Yuan's sharp eyes and quickly retreated.
The people around me were also confused, and I thought to myself, isn’t it like this?
Otherwise, why vote?
"There is no problem with Liu Wei's cultivation, and he is more than enough to be a sect leader, but his character is not good, his structure is not big enough, and his potential has not been realized, so I don't think he is the most suitable candidate."
Elder Yuan expressed his opinion directly.
Everyone immediately looked at Elder Yuan with concentration. This sentence was not very convincing. After all, the results of the votes must be respected in the election.
"Elder Liu, since you already have a candidate for clan master in mind, why do you need to hold an election?"
Of course Liu Wei was not willing to give in. He asked with a livid face, feeling very unconvinced.
"The purpose of voting is to elect the suzerain, of course there is no problem.
It stands to reason that the sect master must be born among the foundation-building and golden elixir monks, but if someone chooses a monk in the Qi-refining stage, it means that this monk has a certain ability, and his ability and credibility are extraordinary! Therefore, the potential of the monks in the Qi-refining stage is even greater
Big, more suitable to be the sect leader, I now declare Lin Yu to be elected as the sect leader."
Elder Yuan's last sentence directly announced the result.
At this moment, everyone stared with big eyes and small eyes, each one was extremely surprised, and some could not turn around.
"That's true. I think the person who chose Lin Yu has a unique vision and insight. This is why we want to know who chose Lin Yu. Do you understand now?"
Lotus asked with a smile.
In fact, when Elder Yuan saw Lin Yu's cave before, he discovered the restrictions outside and was very shocked at the time. This meant that Lin Yu knew the formation.
It is absolutely unheard of that a monk in the Qi Refining Stage can control the first level formation. The key point is that Lin Yu has just reached the sixth level of the Qi Refining Stage. How can it not be shocking?
Combined with the things that Lin Yu had done before, they negotiated with the Lotus Sect Master to let Lin Yu serve as the Sect Master. However, they did not participate in the vote, and it was Yingzi and Niu Cheng who chose it.
"Lin Yu is just an ant in the Qi refining stage, how can he be the leader of the clan?
Our sect is already weak, so wouldn’t such childishness make outsiders laugh at us?”
Liu Wei said loudly, dissatisfied and angry.
"You mean to say that I am having fun with the Lotus Sect Master?"
Elder Yuan asked coldly.
"I?
...No, it was a slip of the tongue! It was a slip of the tongue."
Seeing Elder Yuan's sharp gaze, Liu Wei immediately lowered his head in fear and did not dare to talk nonsense anymore.
