Chapter 497 Succession Ceremony
The next day, the weather was fine and cloudless.

At the Lingyuan Sect on Lingyuan Mountain, many sects gathered to watch the succession ceremony of the new head of the Lingyuan Sect.Zhang Shuntian was dressed in the costume of the head of the sect, and stood solemnly on the big stage. After a lot of etiquette, Zhang Shuntian successfully became the new head of the Lingyuan Sect.

The current ancient martial arts world is similar to the business world. The heads of various sects need to communicate and promote the development of each sect. Therefore, after the succession ceremony, there will be three days of entertaining VIPs.

A three-day celebration ceremony will be held at Lingyuanmen. In this way, the heads of various sects will bring their disciples to participate, firstly to congratulate, and secondly, to discuss the future development direction of the ancient martial arts world.

These few days, Zhang Shuntian was so busy that Liu Chen and Li Qingwan hardly saw him. He was dressed in the costume of the head of the sect, and he had been entertaining the head elders from various sects in the main hall in front of him.

Li Qingwan was bored, wandering in the garden by herself, happened to meet Liu Chen.It was somewhat awkward for the two of them to meet, Li Qingwan originally wanted to go around, but Liu Chen blocked her way.

"I happen to have something to tell you." Liu Chen said.

"what's up?"

"Zhang Shuntian has become the head of the Lingyuan sect, does he plan to marry you?" Liu Chen asked directly, Li Qingwan froze for a moment, and squeezed out an embarrassed smile: "This, it seems that I don't care about your business?",,,
"Of course, I'm just asking casually. How should I say, we are also friends. He is no longer the Shuntian brother at the beginning. He has a heavy burden on him. I think you probably heard what was said at the reception yesterday. right?"

Liu Chen asked this on purpose, he wanted to see Li Qingwan's reaction.Yesterday, at the reception, the head of another faction proposed to marry his daughter to Zhang Shuntian, in order to make the two factions become good friends of Qin and Jin.However, Zhang Sainty refused on the spot.

Afterwards, Elder Lingyuan reprimanded Zhang Shuntian for a long time, saying that he did not give others the face of being the head of the sect. He used to represent himself only, and he could do whatever he wanted. Now, he represents the entire Lingyuan sect. Leaving other sects will only make people think that their Lingyuan sect is just arrogant and defiant.

Li Qingwan said: "So what if you know?"

Liu Chen said: "Zhang Shuntian was just reprimanded for refusing a marriage. He can refuse this time, but it doesn't mean he can refuse the second time. If you still want to marry him, you must be mentally prepared."

Of course Li Qingwan understands that, as the instructor of the Dragon Group, if she wants to win over Zhang Shuntian, she must marry him. However, the Lingyuan Sect also has its own considerations. It wants to unite with other factions to become stronger and marry the daughters of other sects. , is much more cost-effective than marrying her Li Qingwan.

Li Qingwan didn't know how Zhang Shuntian would choose, so she was depressed.

In fact, just from the perspective of feelings, why did Li Qingwan ever want to marry Zhang Shuntian? No matter how good Zhang Shuntian is, if she doesn't love him, it's useless.Liu Chen said, "You should have your own plans."

| "What can I plan, I can't help myself."

"Involuntary? I never believed that argument."

Li Qingwan glanced at Liu Chen and smiled: "That's because you are not under anyone's control, you don't need to care about it, just be yourself."

"Isn't this bad? It's great to be free and to decide everything by yourself!" Liu Chen wanted to ask Li Qingwan to leave the dragon group, but it was not easy.

The two strolled around in the garden for a while, chatting casually, talking about yesterday's succession ceremony, Li Qingwan said: "Situ Wuqiong is finally dead, you can rest assured."

"But, I always feel that something is not quite right." Liu Chen was a little worried.

"what?"

Thinking of yesterday's succession ceremony, Situ Wuqiong was dragged up to execute the death sentence. At that time, several disciples dragged him up.

Since the guests were far away from the stage, they couldn't see Situ Wuqiong's expression clearly. His hair was disheveled, almost covering half of his face.Liu Chen said: "Situ Wuqiong was abandoned by me. Even so, his many years of martial arts practice has made him tough. Even in the face of death, he will not be a coward. But yesterday..."

Li Qingwan remembered a detail. When Situ Wuqiong was executed, he collapsed to the ground in fright, almost unable to move, trembling all over. This is not the integrity that a martial arts practitioner should have at all!

Even if Situ Wuqiong is treacherous, but his kung fu is not weak, and he is not afraid of death, how could he be like that?

Li Qingwan said: "Could it be that, do you think Situ Wuqiong is not dead? Did someone drop him?"

Liu Chen nodded: "It's possible. But who is doing all this behind the scenes? Could it be that the guardianship of the Spiritual Source Sect is so unfavorable?"

"When Situ Wuqiong was captured that day, Zhang Shuntian was about to kill him. It was Elder Lingyuan who stopped him, saying that he would execute it at the succession ceremony and use Situ's blood to pay homage to the dead leader. Could it be him?"

Liu Chen shook his head, not sure, maybe, maybe not.There is nothing wrong with the head of Lingyuan doing this. Killing Situ Wuqiong in front of the other sects can avenge the head of the sect. Second, it can establish prestige in front of the sects, saying that our Lingyuan sect is decent. , will never associate with villains.

Therefore, Liu Chen's actions by Elder Lingyuan are understandable, but it is a bit too arbitrary to say that this is definitely not his fault.

Liu Chen didn't quite understand one thing, Situ Wuqiong had been crippled by himself, and now he has no skill at all, who will save him, what use is Situ Wuqiong?
Thinking of this, Liu Chen suddenly thought of a possibility, and turned to Li Qingwan and said, "I thought of it, maybe..."

"What?" Li Qingwan didn't quite understand. Is such a Situ Wuqiong worth saving?
Liu Chen said: "Although Situ Wuqiong has no kung fu, his value is even greater, because in this way, he will be more controlled by others and have to be obedient."

"You mean..." Li Qingwan also widened her eyes, as if she understood something.

Liu Chen said: "Someone wants to save Situ Wuqiong, there is only one possibility, and that is—the Holy Land of Martial Arts!"

Uh, there are only a few people who have been to the Holy Land of Martial Arts. The secret of that place will not be easily judged, and there are too many people in the world who want to find the Holy Land of Martial Arts. Who can they use?Liu Chen?Zhang Shuntian?Obviously impossible, the only one who can be used is this scheming Situ Wuqiong.

In addition, he is in trouble now, if someone proposes an exchange, on the condition that he leads them to the Holy Land of Martial Arts, Situ Wuqiong will definitely agree to it in order to save his life, this is his value.
