The most melodramatic rebirth in history

Chapter 210 An Unprecedented Proposal

"Congratulations on the successful conclusion of this disciple competition! If the elders have nothing more to say, then let's all disperse and go back to rest." The man in the purple-gold crown who led the way in rising had a broad smile on his face, clearly very happy. Even his tone when speaking to the crowd was more gentle.

The Jade Purity Sect Master was not only happy about the successful conclusion of the sect's grand competition and his disciple Wu Ye's unexpected breakthrough, but more importantly, the end of the competition marked the beginning of the implementation of his long-suppressed plan.

Because Feng Tianjue did not want to delay any longer, he had previously entrusted the "awards ceremony" to the Second Elder.

"I hope this operation will go smoothly!" The withered old man stood up with the others in the VIP seats and murmured to himself, gazing at the hazy, cold night sky.

The wish is good...

Unfortunately, the series of events that followed in the next few days caught Feng Ling and Feng Tianjue completely off guard. This also clearly demonstrates that the saying "plans can't keep up with changes" is not just a casual remark made by our predecessors.

"Alright, everyone disperse..."

"Sect Master, wait! I... have something to say!"

Just as the man in the purple-gold crown was about to announce the end of the event, a discordant voice came from the white-haired old man standing to his left with his hands clasped in front of him.

"Elder, please speak!"

Turning his head to look at the serious-looking Long Yuzhong, Feng Tianjue frowned. He wanted to see what kind of trouble this old guy was up to this time.

"Sect Master, it's been a long time since we old bones have been out and about. Seeing the wonderful competition between the young disciples this time is quite impressive..."

The words were tinged with a sigh, causing the Jade Purity Sect Master to furrow his brow even more deeply. This time, the speaker was not the Grand Elder, but the old man in black robes.

"Fourth Elder, what do you mean by this? Do you intend to incite a fierce battle among the elders?"

Upon hearing this, before Feng Tianjue could react, the kind-faced elder to his right glared angrily at the black-robed elder. Elder Liu Yidao, enraged, was about to step forward and point his finger at the black-robed elder to hurl insults.

This action made the withered old man very suspicious: Liu Yidao was not secretly instructed by the Jade Purity Sect Master, but he was never a reckless person. Could it be that he was no longer afraid of legendary experts?
"Hmph! Elder Liu, don't... judge others by your own standards!"

The Fourth Elder's words were uncompromising. After turning his old eyes, he did not answer the other party's question directly, but only threw all the "no" back at the other party with a cold laugh.

This is truly... a case of the thief crying "stop thief!"
As all the core disciples and elders in the VIP seats watched the two old men exuding a strong aura of hostility with trepidation, Feng Ling couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

As the saying goes:
The weasel is sending New Year greetings to the rooster, which is not a good idea!

Although he couldn't figure out what the Grand Elder and the others were really up to, Feng Ling didn't believe that their collective argument was just a simple...

To loosen up and invigorate the muscles and bones!
"You old scoundrel...!" Liu Yidao's face turned ashen with anger. He was about to step forward to argue when he was once again blocked by the man in the purple-gold crown.

"Continue with what we were saying earlier..."

Then, Feng Tianjue, without moving an inch, spoke in a cool and indifferent tone. Immediately, the black-robed elder and the white-haired elder, seeing the situation, exchanged a glance and stepped forward together with their hands clasped in greeting.

"To demonstrate the strength and grandeur of our Jade Purity Sect, and to set a good example for all disciples to strive for."

We dare to...
"Please petition the sect leader to hold the first Elders' Martial Arts Tournament!"

Two resounding Daoist voices echoed in all directions for a long time. The words spoken by the black-robed and white-haired elders caused everyone to pause in surprise for a while. Then, the crowd erupted into a clamor as if a pot had been boiled over.

"Tianjue, agree to it! I've been looking for an opportunity to establish my authority, and this is a perfect chance!"

Looking up silently at the two elders, the First Elder and the Fourth Elder, who were speaking in unison, the old man with beard and hair below the dueling arena gradually turned his eyes sharp. He sneered inwardly: "We've been waiting for you for so long, and you've finally shown your true colors!" "Not bad! Just before the plan is implemented, let these two old bones of ours be on the field first, and in front of everyone, let's show them who's got the upper hand!"

Upon hearing the Second Elder's indifferent telepathic message, the Third Elder, who had remained silent until now, quickly sent a secret message to the Jade Purity Sect Master. It was not difficult to detect a hint of joy in his voice.

"My two senior uncles, please be careful!"

Frowning as he stared at the two elderly men with their hands clasped in front of him, Feng Tianjue narrowed his eyes and secretly sent a message to the second and third elders with concern.

Since both the two elderly men with beards and the two elders had put their words to this point, he naturally wouldn't directly refuse the elder's request.

Most importantly, Feng Tianjue genuinely had no intention of refusing. After all, holding this martial arts tournament wasn't just about establishing prestige; it was also an opportunity to probe the opponent's strengths and weaknesses.

"Is that what you all think too?" His cold gaze swept over the dozens of elders on the left.

Although he had already made up his mind, the Jade Purity Sect Master still wanted to "seek the opinions of everyone" to see how many ordinary elders in the sect would firmly choose to stand on the side of the Grand Elder and others.

"We hope the Sect Master will issue an order for approval!"

"Sect Master, please... approve!"

As the two elders respectfully invited him again, nearly half of the elders stepped forward, cupping their hands in agreement. This ignited a surge of anger in Feng Tianjue's heart, and his face gradually darkened.

"Whoosh—!" A biting, piercing wind blew slowly through the night sky, carrying with it huge, dark clouds that shrouded the sky and the moon.

It's all wind, just wind...

It was very quiet all around…! Even the elders who had just spoken could only remain in their current positions until they heard a reply from the front.

At this moment, the Jade Purity Sect Master looked up at the sky with an indifferent expression. No one could guess what he was thinking, and for a moment no one dared to speak rashly.

As a result, the atmosphere in the vast dueling arena froze, and it suddenly became completely silent. Then, the entire scene, which had fallen into a deathly silence, gradually became oppressive.

"Granted!" After an unknown amount of time, two resounding words echoed throughout the dueling arena, and everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It was only then that many elders and core disciples noticed that their foreheads, which were steaming slightly, were covered with a fine layer of cold sweat.

Those inner disciples who were overly nervous turned pale and felt a chill run down their spines.

It turned out that their robes had been soaked with sweat without them even realizing it.

"Thank you, Sect Master!" The Grand Elder and the others bowed again and straightened up. Although they were very dissatisfied, they dared not show it openly.

"The event is over..." Without paying any further attention, Feng Tianjue left first after uttering these words. The astonished crowd followed suit and departed.

But after the elders left, someone said: "I'm afraid it's really time to end this..."

Life isn't about persevering because of hope; it's about seeing hope because you persevere.

Amidst the myriad troubles and disturbances of the world, may the sages bring you, the readers, a pure land for your souls.
