Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, thinking: I won't say anything if I have an opinion, and if you say it, you will say another will, and then I will be like Elder Suo, I am not so stupid.
Seeing this, Yu Qingyao hit the iron hot, and asked: "I follow the master's last order to take over as suzerain, do you have any opinions?"
Everyone was depressed and still didn't dare to speak out.
Yu Qingyao secretly smiled in her heart, and said, "Since you admit that I am the suzerain, then everything will be at my command from now on."
Yu Rulong became anxious, and said: "I have an opinion!"
Yu Qingyao immediately said: "This guest, this is the internal affairs of the Aurora Sect. It has nothing to do with you!"
Yu Rulong was dumbfounded.
She forgot that she had been expelled from the sect and was no longer a member of the Aurora Sect. With such a status, she naturally has no right to speak about the affairs of the Aurora Sect.
Seeing that her master was being suppressed, her big apprentice, Yu Huosheng, hurriedly interrupted and said, "According to the rules, the suzerain master must have a golden core level cultivation to take over. You are only building the foundation now, so you are not qualified to take over as the suzerain master!"
What Yu Huosheng said was actually not wrong, it was an unwritten rule of Taoism.
How can he convince the public if his cultivation level is below the Golden Core? Once there is a major event, the suzerain will take on heavy responsibilities. This is not just an idea, but an order. If a strong enemy provokes the sect, usually the suzerain will be the first to bear the brunt.
If you don't reach the suzerain of the golden core, you will be laughed at when you go out.
Yu Qingyao had expected it a long time ago, and said with a slight smile: "There is no such thing in the clan rules!"
What Yu Huosheng said was true, but it was an unwritten rule, and there was indeed no such rule in the clan rules.
Yu Huosheng was also speechless.
Yu Qingyao shook the suzerain order in her hand, and said loudly: "Since I entered the mountain, no one has saluted me. It can be seen that the master is right, and the Aurora sect needs to be rectified. Now, in front of the master, I want to Start clearing the portal."
Everyone was chilled when they heard it, thinking that she was going to kill.
Elder Quan hurried forward, bowed deeply first, and said, "Sect Master Yu, listen to this old man."
Yu Qingyao complained in her heart: What did you do so early? Just salute me now! You guys really don't know good from bad. If my sister doesn't show off her power, you will treat me as a bully.
She gave a little support, and said softly: "Please stand up, old man, may I ask who you are?"
Elder Quan's face was slightly red, and he said cheekily: "My surname is Quan, Quan Muqing, and I am the elder of the Cangjing Pavilion. I wonder if Sect Master Yu has ever told you about being old?"
Yu Qingyao smiled and said: "So it's Elder Quan. Master has mentioned you many times. He said that you have been working hard for hundreds of years, fulfilling your duties, and never making mistakes."
Elder Quan was delighted when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Sect Master Yu has wrongly rewarded you. Sovereign Master, may I ask you how to clean up the house?"
Yu Qingyao glanced at the crowd, and said softly: "I have a concern, I wonder if you would like to listen?"
Everyone thought: Is this enough for us not to listen
Everyone was silent, looking at her and Elder Quan eagerly.
Elder Quan lived up to his expectations, and said with a smile: "Sect Master, please speak!"
Yu Qingyao walked up to the master's spiritual seat, faced everyone, and said softly: "It is inevitable that blood will flow into rivers when we clean up the sect. But I can't bear it. I secretly speculate that the master's original intention is to maintain the tradition of the sect for thousands of years. It must kill people. Therefore, I thought of a way to get the best of both worlds. As long as everyone acts according to this method, you can get the best of both worlds without hurting peace."
Quan Chang Lao Qi said: "What method?"
Yu Qingyao said with a slight smile: "It's very simple! Those who don't want to abide by the tradition, from today onwards, kowtow in front of my master's spiritual seat, and then go down the mountain. From then on, they are no longer members of the Aurora Sect. Those who are willing to abide by the tradition can If you stay, you will still be a disciple of the sect. What do you think?"
What she said was indeed what she really thought in her heart. She really doesn't want to make a big killing in the sect, if that happens, it's not a virgin. But if those people were not cleared away, she would feel uneasy. God knows how many conspiracies those people will play in the future if they are still in the sect. She really didn't want to be on guard every day.
Everyone looked at each other.
Some people suspect that the new suzerain is just a test. Once they leave the mountain, they are afraid that they will be hunted down immediately.
Some people looked around without arguing, wondering how everyone would choose.
Some people were moved. They were afraid that if they did not leave today, they would not be able to leave in the future.
Yu Rulong couldn't bear it any longer, and sneered, "What if we all leave?"
Yu Rulong had a calculation in his heart, seeing the new suzerain like this, it was absolutely impossible to allow himself to stay in the sect, and he would definitely be driven away. In that case, it would be nice if he could leave with his disciples and cronies.
It's just that she is still not willing to leave in such a desperate way.
But if he didn't leave, he would be powerless to fight against the demon pet of the new suzerain, the demon king level.
Yu Qingyao said with a slight smile: "It's okay to leave, I just work harder, just recruit some other disciples."
Yu Rulong's eyes widened in disbelief, staring at Yu Qingyao.
Yu Qingyao maintained a slight smile, calmly, as if I am like this, and you can do nothing to me.
Yu Rulong was speechless.
Yu Qingyao smiled and said: "Let's do this! Those who are willing to go with Yu Rulong, stand on the right. Those who are willing to abide by the tradition and want to stay, stand on the left."
After finishing speaking, she smiled and gestured with the Sovereign Order, and said, "This is the left side, and this is the right side."
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and they all hesitated.
Which side to stand on is a very easy matter, just walk a few steps.
However, once selected, life in the future will be completely different.
Many people originally supported Yu Rulong, but now they want to be with Yu Rulong and be expelled from the sect, and they all hesitate in their hearts.
There are many people who have lived in the sect for hundreds of years, and their great-grandfathers, grandfathers, and fathers are buried here. My home is here, and I am used to living here. They are also used to life in the sect.
To suddenly ask them to abandon all this and go far away, this kind of determination is not easy to make.
Yu Rulong's confidants and disciples stood behind Yu Rulong without hesitation.
Yu Qingyao looked at it with a smile and did not stop it.
She is curious! I wonder how many people are willing to stay.
Yu Rulong was equally curious, wanting to know how many people really supported him. Those who are willing to abandon the sect's easy life and go down the mountain with her are truly loyal.
Therefore, Yu Rulong also remained silent, watching everyone's choices.
Elder Quan hesitated for a while, sighed, and walked to Yu Qingyao's side.
Yu Rulong looked at Elder Quan sadly.
Elder Quan sighed: "Long'er, I'm old! I can't help you anymore."
Old people are like this, they worry more than young people. He has sons and daughters, and a bunch of grandchildren and great-grandchildren. This is going to leave the sect, where can I drag my family with me? Of course he wants to stay.
Yu Qingyao said with a smile: "Elder Quan is welcome to stay, Master really saw you right!"
Elder Quan stroked his beard with a smile.
As he took the lead, some disciples and deacons stood behind Yu Qingyao.
There are also many people who are worried and unwilling to change their lives. Of course, there are also those who are sincerely willing to uphold the tradition.
Those who choose, their hearts are settled.
