Chapter 631: The Head of the Clan
Translator: 549690339
At night, as the portal slowly closed, the Green Sky Meeting officially came to an end.
After all the surviving Mystic Kings were checked by their own sects or family heads and confirmed that they did not have any extra Cosmos Rings or treasures on them, they gathered in the center of the square. They were waiting for the seniors to announce the top three of the Green Sky Meeting.
Of course, the answer was already in their minds.
After a while, an elegant young man in a green robe walked onto the podium.
After a bootlicking speech, Jiang Beiran found out that he was the spokesperson chosen by the various major Mystical Arts Pavilions and was considered one of the best among the younger generation in the field of Mystical Arts.
After thanking everyone, Ying Hanmo cupped his hands towards everyone and said, “”1 know that everyone has worked hard on this trip to Golden Cauldron Island, so I won’t say too much nonsense. After the appraisal of the pavilion elders of the various Mystical Arts Associations, the leader of the Green Sky Society this time is the team led by Shi Jiamu of the Shi Residence in Tong
Country.”
What?!” “How could that be?”
“Impossible!”
Everyone was in an uproar. Everyone was certain that Alliance Master Han would be the Alliance Master this time.
After all, most of them had given their gains to the Alliance Master. Even if a small number of people wanted to be thick-skinned and fight for it, it would be useless.
“Hehe, what a good Shi family. I wonder where you were having fun when the Rock Spirit attacked the camp?
“I wonder how shameless the Shi family must be to be able to claim the title of leader. ”
“Hahaha! Ridiculous, ridiculous!”
“Alright, quiet down.”
Just as everyone was getting excited, a middle-aged man in a long robe jumped onto the podium.
This person had a stern body and a dignified appearance. His eyes were imposing without anger, his eyebrows were dark like ink, and his chest was broad. He had a demeanor that ten thousand men could not match.
At this moment, Little Seven and the Lin family members in the crowd immediately bowed and shouted,””Greetings, Patriarch.”
Upon hearing that this was the Lin family’s head, everyone immediately fell silent. After all, he was the head of the Alliance Master, so they had to give him some face.
Seeing that everyone had quieted down, Lin Pusheng said, ‘”‘1 am already aware of what happened on Golden Cauldron Island this time around. I am also very pleased that our Lin family has such a righteous disciple. However, there are still some parts of this matter that you do not know about…” Lin Pusheng looked at Little Seven and said,” Dacheng, why don’t you tell us what happened?'”‘
“Yes, sir!”
Seven cupped her hands at Lin Pusheng and walked up the stage.
After going on stage, Little Seven first bowed to Lin Pusheng, then cupped her hands towards the Xuan Kings below the stage.
“Thank you for your favor this time and for promoting me to the position of Alliance Master. However, there is one thing that I have to make clear here. The reason why I was able to defeat those Rock Spirits was all thanks to the help of the Shi family. It was just that the Shi family member kept a low profile and did not want me to reveal his name, so I did not say it. However, now that I see everyone’s excitement, I have no choice but to say it. “Holy Crystal Soul
Little Seven’s words made everyone confused. Everyone had seen with their own eyes that every time the Rock Spirit attacked, only he and the Deputy Alliance Master would step forward. How could there be anyone else?
After seeing everyone’s doubts, Seven took out a piece of orange-yellow jade that was covered in layers of light from her Qian Kun ring.
“My strength is meager, and I should have died at the hands of the Rock Spirits like everyone else. It was all because that righteous man gave me this piece of Holy Crystal Soul Jade that my strength increased greatly and I barely defeated those Rock Spirits.”
“Holy Crystal Soul Jade!”
Everyone was shocked. As Mystic Kings, although they did not own it, they had a certain understanding of the top treasures on the continent.
As a top-notch treasure that could allow cultivators to challenge those of a higher level, there were very few people who had not heard of its name.
Seeing everyone’s surprised expression, Xiao Qi continued, ‘”‘Therefore, everyone should be grateful to him. Without this piece of Holy Crystal Soul Jade, I would never have been able to defeat the Rock Spirit and ensure everyone’s safety.”
“No!” One of the people below the stage immediately shouted,” We have seen everything that the Alliance Master has done. Even with this Holy Crystal Soul Jade, fighting with the Rock Spirit is still an extremely dangerous matter. Alliance Master, you don’t have to be humble.”
“Yes, Alliance Master, you don’t have to be humble!”Everyone responded.
Seven cupped her hands towards all the Mystic Kings and continued, “”Just as I said at the beginning, that expert kept a low profile. Originally, he tried his best to make me the chief, but my conscience was too uneasy, so I refused. I just wanted to let everyone know that it was not only me and the deputy chief who were able to safely escape this disaster.”
Seeing that everyone had quieted down, Little Seven immediately said,””Since everyone already knows the whole story, you should also understand why I am unwilling to accept the title of Chief. I hope that everyone will not say those intense words just now.”
“As you command, Alliance Master.”
Although they still thought that the leader of the alliance should be the Alliance Master, since the Alliance Master wanted to give up modestly, there was naturally no need for them to continue opposing.
Seeing that things had settled down as he had expected, Jiang Beiran snapped his fingers in his heart.
“Done!”
From the moment he made Little Seven his ‘savior’ , Jiang Beiran had naturally prepared a perfect plan.
There were two benefits to using the Saint Gem Soul Jade as a cover.
Firstly, without this cover, it would be very troublesome to explain Little Seven’s protagonist halo. If it was not explained well or explained too well, it might incur the suspicion of these Profound Sages..
