Chapter 46: Cancellation of the suzerain's qualification for election
Next, Jiang Heng began to wash and rest.
Mi Wenjie, on the other hand, urgently summarized the mission information, wrote a report letter, and arranged for someone to rush back to the sect's headquarters.
In addition, the Xiantian Realm expert who assassinated Jiang Heng was also reported emphatically.
the next day.
Mi Wenjie took a group of people and set off in a carriage early in the morning.
According to Gang Leader Wan's instructions, he went to the mountain road where he was robbed and killed, and found hematite and other goods buried somewhere in the mountain.
The group of people were all warriors in the physical realm, plus Mi Wenjie, a strong man in the true energy realm. With everyone's combined efforts, they used manpower to transport the goods out of the mountains in batches, loaded them on carriages, and transported them back to the mine. field.
At this point, the mission of Jiang Heng’s trip has been successfully completed.
Another day has passed.
A new order was issued from Elder Wen in the sect. After praising Jiang Heng and the others, he promised Jiang Heng a reward of 1,000 contribution points and Mi Wenjie a reward of 500 contribution points.
In addition, a new mine owner was arranged to take up the post.
At the same time, the identity of the Xiantian realm expert who assassinated Jiang Heng was also found out by the sect.
The fifth peak of Daluo Sect, the elders’ meeting hall.
In the middle is a long conference table, with the sect leader Bai Haocang sitting at the head, and the twelve core elders sitting on both sides.
Different from ordinary elders, the core elders have very strong real power and are the core management of Daluo Sect. Each of them is a peerless master of the fifth martial arts realm - the Wanxiang realm.
In ordinary terms, all of them would be on an equal footing with the emperors of the dynasty.
Either they have a leisurely posture, or their expressions are solemn, and all of them exude a terrifying aura like an abyss or a sea.
“Today I am notifying you to come to discuss matters, mainly involving major crimes involving a certain core elder.”
The majestic voice of the sect leader Bai Haocang echoed in the empty meeting hall.
Some people who were well-informed had already known part of the information in advance, and immediately looked at Elder Sun, whose face was as black as coal.
Bai Haocang still looked calm and said:
“Recently, there was an outer disciple who stood out in the competition, showed his invincible strength in the physical realm, and killed a Zhenqi realm warrior head-on. Many people should have heard of this.”
“This outer disciple’s name is Jiang Heng, and he is the son of the late elder Jiang Wenjing.”
“Five days ago, Jiang Heng went to the Hongyan Mine near Chuanjiang City to perform a mission to investigate the case where the mine was robbed and the garrison was killed.”
"During this process, Jiang Heng showed amazing insight and strong martial arts strength. He not only took the lead in solving the case, but also killed one mastermind, arrested two masterminds, and recovered a 135-pound piece of fire cloud iron mother. The sect has made significant contributions.”
Speaking of this, some core elders expressed surprise.
The 135-jin Huoyun Iron Mother is worth more than one million taels of silver. Even for them, this wealth cannot be underestimated.
“During this period, a subordinate of a certain core elder, the sect protector Lei Song, who was in the innate realm, made a sneak attack on Jiang Heng.”
Bai Haocang's indifferent gaze fell on Elder Sun.
“Elder Sun, what’s your explanation?”
Everyone’s eyes immediately fell on Elder Sun.
Feeling the looks that were either joking, mocking or gloating, Elder Sun's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He opened his mouth to explain:
"Leisong is indeed my subordinate, but I did not instruct him to do such a thing."
“The guardians of the sect are all experts recruited from the outside world. Naturally, their character is uneven, and it is inevitable to have some bad apples.”
"Of course, after all, he entered the sect through my invitation and is also my subordinate. I don't know people well and my governance is not strict, so I am willing to bear the corresponding joint responsibilities."
The Daluo Sect's law-protecting system is a system specially established to invite outside masters to supplement the middle-level military force.
Each Dharma protector who joins the sect needs to apply for an application from an elder. After strict review by the sect, he can officially join the sect, enjoy the benefits of the sect and work for the sect at the same time.
The elder who applies for joining the sect is the person responsible for the Dharma Protector and the superior of the Dharma Protector.
Hearing what Elder Sun said, Bai Haocang looked sharp and shouted coldly:
“Joint and several liability?”
“Sun Feiyu, do you believe such deceptive words?”
“How much hatred do you and Jiang Heng’s father, Jiang Wenjing, have? Who in the sect knows?”
“You have a motive, and Protector Lei is also your subordinate, but you tell me that Protector Lei made his own decision?”
“Tell me, why did he assassinate Jiang Heng?”
Elder Sun could not help but remain silent.
At this time, another elder with a long beard asked curiously:
“Sect Master, what was the result of Protector Lei’s sneak attack on Jiang Heng? Who saved him in the end?”
Several other people also looked at Bai Haocang curiously.
Obviously, Jiang Heng survived in the end, otherwise, Lei Song’s matter would not have been exposed.
But since it was a sneak attack, and it was outside the sect, a sneak attack by a strong Xiantian realm must be extremely concealed, so how could he be saved by such a coincidence?
“Jiang Heng killed Protector Lei.”
Bai Haocang said lightly.
Hearing this, everyone present was shocked.
Some people subconsciously don’t believe it:
"How is it possible? No matter how powerful you are in the physical realm, you can't kill a strong person in the innate realm, and that's when the opponent sneak attacks!"
“The strength gap between the two is at least a hundred times, and it is impossible to counterattack!”
“Sect Master, it’s not you who sent someone to protect me secretly in advance, right?”
"I heard that you accepted him as your disciple, and increased the reward for the championship of the competition that Jiang Heng participated in tenfold. It seems that you value him quite a lot."
Elder Sun also sneered and said:
“As the leader of the clan, you have used your position to benefit your own interests, and used your position to deliver such a large amount of benefits to your disciples. Do you also have to accept the punishment?”
Bai Haocang's expression was as calm as ever.
“Since some people have raised objections to this matter, let’s discuss it in detail later. Now let’s resolve the issue of you sending someone to assassinate the sect’s genius.”
“In addition, Jiang Heng broke through to the True Qi Realm during the mission. He used his True Qi Realm cultivation to counterattack and kill the Thunder Protector. Whether you believe it or not is up to you. This has nothing to do with the whole matter.”
“Then, I now propose to confiscate Elder Sun’s salary for one year, convert one-tenth of it into contribution points, and compensate the victim Jiang Heng. In addition…”
“Disqualified from candidacy for the suzerain election ten months later.”
As soon as these words came out, Elder Sun immediately stood up and shouted angrily:
“Baihaocang!”
“You want to take this opportunity to suppress me? You want to cancel my candidacy for such a small thing?”
“It doesn’t matter if a mere outer sect disciple is a genius. The sect has countless geniuses every year. One more than him is not much, and one less than him is not much. What big deal is that?”
“What’s more, isn’t he living well now?”
“The core elder of my dignified Daluo Sect was disqualified from candidacy because of such a trivial matter. If word spreads out, do others think that the core elders are equal to the outer disciples?”
“That will bring shame to the entire sect!”
Elder Sun's clothes are fluttering, his beard and hair are flying, and his whole body exudes terrible pressure.
But everyone present was all extremely powerful, so naturally they would not take him seriously and would just watch him with cold eyes.
