Chapter 5373: The sect leader returns

Translator: 549690339

Especially in the current situation, if Xin Yijie were to directly go head to head with this guy, it would immediately become a chaotic situation. If the people from the Chen family faction really started to make a fuss, they might not listen to him when they got serious. They might even be waiting to see him make a fool of himself.

Just as the situation was about to get out of control, a faint voice suddenly interrupted,””Deputy sect leader Chen, who are you talking about?”

Chen Dongcheng was still pretending to be calm, thinking that Lin Yi wouldn’t be able to walk out of the formation, and that he would still have a chance to turn the tables. His legs went soft when he heard the voice, and he almost fell to the ground.

“You … How did you get out?” Chen Dongcheng looked at Lin Yi’s group as they slowly approached, and he was instantly drenched in cold sweat. He was definitely the one who had the deepest fear of Lin Yi among the people present. The others were only shocked that Lin Yi could kill a nascent soul old monster, but he had experienced it for himself.

“You’re very curious?” Lin Yi smiled and looked at the others who were also dumbfounded, “I’ve even casually dealt with your Grand Elder. Do you believe that a mere heaven ascending array can trap me? I didn’t come out before because I was just playing with you guys!”

“…” Everyone was silent. No one dared to look at Lin Yi at this moment. This was the effect Lin Yi wanted. If he wanted to control the Qingyun school, then what he needed to do now was not to be gentle, but to show his power!

From the moment Chen Jiu was killed, the rules of the Qingyun school were set to be changed, and this person could only be Lin Yi.

“What are you all standing there for? hurry up and greet your senior granduncle!” Xin Yijie took the opportunity to signal to everyone.

“Disciple greets martial granduncle!” Everyone present immediately knelt down, from the Aurous core stage elders to the ordinary disciples, regardless of whether they were from the local faction or the Chen family faction, there was no exception.

Even Chen Dongcheng and Lu Ping ‘an, Chen Jiu’s two absolute confidants, knelt down with him. There was no other way-the situation was more pressing than the people. If they dared to disobey, Lin Yi wouldn’t mind killing them as an example again. He could kill Chen Jiu just like that, let alone the two of them.

Lin Yi looked at the two of them and felt that it was a pity. He didn’t plan on letting them live-they weren’t a threat to him, but they were both peak late-stage golden core and mid-stage golden core, after all. Plus, the Chen family had connections, and it’d be troublesome if they tried to do something behind his back.

Unfortunately, the two were tactful and didn’t continue to cause trouble, not giving Lin Yi an excuse to deal with them.

Although he needed to establish his power and make new rules, he couldn’t kill people without a good reason. It would make the whole Qingyun school panic, and it wouldn’t end well.

“Alright, get up.” Lin Yi said as he looked at the crowd.

“Many thanks, grand uncle-master,” Everyone stood up in fear and trepidation. To them, Lin Yi was a terrifying existence that was above Grand Elder Chen Jiu. They were even nervous in front of Chen Jiu, so it was natural that they were even more nervous now.

Most importantly, they didn’t know what Lin Yi’s temper was like. Was he generous and reasonable, or was he a bloodthirsty tyrant?

If it was the former, it would be fine. For everyone, especially the disciples of the local sects, it might be good news. However, if it was the latter, it was hard to say whether it was a blessing or a curse. It was better to speak less before getting a clear understanding of the situation. At this time, honest people would not suffer losses.

“Let me tell you something. A big sect like the North Island’s Green cloud sect can’t go a day without a leader. Now that the Grand Elder is gone, and there is no news of the sect leader, someone needs to stand up and take charge of all the affairs. After all, you can’t let me do it, right?” Lin Yi said.

Everyone looked at each other, and their eyes involuntarily fell on Chen Dongcheng. Logically speaking, he was the most qualified candidate.

Chen Dongcheng felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. He couldn’t wait to hide now-he was most afraid of being targeted by Lin Yi. Who would dare to jump out and fight for power at a time like this? Even if he was courting death, he shouldn’t have done it like this!

“How about this, the position of sect leader can not be left vacant, so why don’t we use this opportunity to change the sect leader? I suggest Xin Yijie.” Lin Yi said directly. Letting Xin Yijie take care of the sect’s Affairs was part of his plan. It was a bit sudden to bring it up, and Xin Yijie’s original position and strength were far from enough, but with Lin Yi’s current power, who would dare to say no?

“Uh …” As expected, no one dared to oppose him directly. However, their expressions were all a little strange. Although Xin Yijie was an Aurous core stage elder, this last-ranked elder had suddenly become the sect leader. This was truly a huge leap to heaven!

“No one objected? Then it’s decided. ” Lin Yi didn’t want to waste his breath on them and decided to make a decision. No one dared to resist him anyway, and it’d be fine once they got used to it.

“…” Everyone was speechless. The strong were respected, and no matter what decision Lin Yi made, they wouldn’t dare to show it no matter how unhappy they were. Plus, they were all familiar with Xin Yijie’s personality. Although they didn’t want to let a nice guy take the throne, it wasn’t a bad thing for most people. They could accept it.

“Many thanks, grand uncle-master, this disciple will definitely do my best and go through fire and water!” Xin Yijie suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and shed tears of grat.i.tude. He was a good person who knew when to protect himself, but he was also a good person with ambition. Of course, he had never dreamed that he would one day become the sect leader, but ambition would grow.

“Alright, I’ll leave the rest to you. If there’s anything, come to the ascending heaven cliff to find me.” Lin Yi didn’t stay any longer-all he needed to do was show his face in front of everyone today. How to deal with the aftermath was up to Xin Yijie, and if he couldn’t even handle this, it’d be embarra.s.sing for him. He’d have to find someone else.

As expected, Xin Yijie’s performance didn’t disappoint Lin Yi. He was only an early golden core, but this nice guy’s ability wasn’t to be underestimated. He managed to calm the people down in just a few days and gained the support of the local sect’s higher-ups and disciples.

Of course, it was still too early to truly control the situation, but this was a very good step for Xin Yijie. With the protection of a G.o.d like Lin Yi, he’d become the true sect leader of the North Island’s Qingyun sect sooner or later.

Unfortunately, things did not always go smoothly. A few days later, a person from the green cloud School on the northern island suddenly returned, Hong Zijun.
