C1055 Not Required
"Ahh …" Yu Jingzhe looked at Situ Haotian dumbfoundedly, and after a long while, he finally regained his senses. He was shocked, and thought to himself, Absolutely not, after becoming a Sect Master, they would have to stay on the mountain, bound by the rules, and it would be inconvenient to pick up girls.
No freedom, no freedom...
"I can't, Sect Master. My grade is still young, and I'm not really interested in the position of Sect Master." Yu Jingzhe kept rejecting, "Besides, I still have a lot of things to do in the mortal world."
Situ Haotian and the higher ups of the Heavenly Sect tried to advise him, but Yu Jingzhe never agreed to take over the position of Sect Master. Situ Haotian was helpless and could only give up on this idea.
"To think that you were unwilling to accept the position of Sect Master, then we will not force you, but if you need anything in the future, you can look for us, Heavenly Sect. This is my promise to you." Situ Haotian said solemnly.
Yu Jingzhe hesitated for a moment and did not refuse. After all, it was a time to hire people, and there were many places that needed the help of martial artists. The strength and rallying power of Heavenly Sect were all very strong.
Thus, he nodded his head and replied: "Alright, then I will first thank the Sect Master for their good intentions!"
"One more thing," Situ Haotian suddenly thought of something. "You have defeated Martial Arts Alliance Head, so you have automatically become the next Martial Arts Alliance Head. There will be a ceremony to pass down your position."
"Rites?" Yu Jingzhe looked at Situ Haotian with a worried look and asked, "Is it very complicated? I'm afraid of that. "
Situ Haotian laughed involuntarily as he looked at Yu Jingzhe, "It won't be too complicated. All you need to do is to accept the emblem of Martial Union Lord and say a few words."
Yu Jingzhe let out a long sigh.
The fiery red sun hung high in the blue sky. The blazing sun penetrated through the gaps between the leaves, scorching the entire land. Occasionally, a few birds flew over the treetops, letting out shrill, drawling cries.
"Reporting to Sect Master, that Young Noble Yu Jingzhe has awoken. After the doctors checked, they found that his body is fine." The large hall was empty. The Heavenly Sect disciple standing in the center knelt on one knee, clasped his hands, and said respectfully.
Situ Haotian, who sat on the seat of honor, lightly nodded and stroked his beard. Then, he smiled and squinted his long and narrow eyes: "Then, quickly invite Yu Jingzhe to come and carry out the ceremony for the succession."
The Heavenly Sect disciple bowed, said "Disciple will be leaving" and then left.
After about half an incense's time, after the craftsman finished arranging the ceremony, Yu Jingzhe coincidentally also rushed over from his pavilion. As he walked, he seemed to be slightly trembling, but his entire body was still emitting an extraordinary manly aura.
Situ Haotian opened his palm and made an "invitation" gesture. The rumbling sound of firecrackers followed the moment Yu Jingzhe did it, breaking the silence of the ceremony. "The ceremony officially begins!" The host on the platform shouted loudly, resounding across the horizon.
At the same time, there was the sound of hurried footsteps. It seemed like there was more than one person. When the two of them stood up, they saw that it was Lin Qi and Lin Qianqian. Lin Qi raised his head and casually walked forward with a disdainful smile on his face.
Lin Qianqian, on the other hand, was completely different. Her big watery eyes were sparkling with excitement. She was so happy that she even started to walk unsteadily. Her dark eyes rolled back and forth until she finally saw the person she wanted to see. The corner of her mouth curled up in satisfaction.
Situ Haotian didn't mind the two's sudden intrusion. There wasn't the slightest ripple in his amber eyes. He merely held the teacup and took a sip. When the attendants saw that someone had arrived, they hurriedly brought over a few chairs and respectfully brought them to Lin Qi and Lin Qianqian.
Lin Qianqian smiled sweetly, thanked him, and lifted her skirt to sit down. However, when Lin Qi sat down, he didn't forget to give Yu Jingzhe a disdainful look. Yu Jingzhe didn't seem to mind and just shrugged his shoulders as he spread his hands and smiled helplessly.
Following that, a few elders also rushed over. Situ Haotian said a few polite words and the few elders also politely smiled. The first thing that would happen during the ceremony was the Elder's acceptance speech. Situ Haotian was the first one to speak, but he evaded it because he was not feeling well.
Several Heavenly Sect Elders successively spoke out, and after saying a few words, the audience burst into thunderous applause.
After half an incense stick of time had passed. Situ Hao, who was sitting on the main seat, slowly stood up. He dusted his sleeves, and gave a look to the follower beside him. The follower understood his intentions, and handed over a black cloth wrapped tightly around the Martial Alliance Master badge to Situ Haotian.
Situ Haotian took the badge and walked a few steps to Yu Jingzhe, who was off the stage. Yu Jingzhe quickly knelt down on one knee and raised his hands. The cold feeling of the marble tiles penetrated through his clothes and into his knees. In an instant, a heavy, hard object landed in his palm.
"Congratulations to the new Sect Master! Greetings, Lord Sect Master! " No matter if they were of high status or low status, everyone present kneeled down and kowtowed. At that moment, Yu Jingzhe had an endless amount of glory, but deep in his eyes, not a single trace of complacency could be seen.
Below the stage, Lin Qi was still unconvinced. He straightened his back and refused to kneel down. He didn't believe that Yu Jingzhe would do anything to him if he didn't kneel down. In the end, it was Lin Qianqian who forcefully pushed him down.
Yu Jingzhe slightly blessed Situ Hao. He cupped his hands and said, "If Sir Situ has any difficulties in the future, I will definitely do my best to help." No expression could be seen on his face, but determination flashed across his eyes.
It was a type of power that did not fear the passage of time.
"A'Yang, I know how loyal you are. We didn't need to express ourselves earlier." Situ Hao supported Yu Jingzhe who was kneeling on the ground. His eyes were filled with love, as if the person in front of him was the flesh and blood he had raised for many years.
"You should go and make some remarks first. There are so many people waiting for you to appear." Situ Haotian softly reminded him. Then, he returned to his seat of honor. He looked at the blue sky with his deep eyes, and the clouds that had different shapes and sizes started to change. Yeah, life was always this unpredictable, and tomorrow might be the day of his death, or maybe someone else's pride. He was old, and the position of Sect Master was supposed to be taken by someone else.2
In his entire life, the only thought left in his mind was Heavenly Sect.
Just as he thought about that, Yu Jingzhe's magnetic voice interrupted his thoughts.
