THE SUPREME MARTIAL KING SHOCKING ALL REALMS

Chapter 956: Chapter 953: Extending an Invitation to Hurricane City!_1

Now that he thought about it, Zhou Qing’s previous indifference towards Yang Chen might not necessarily have been harmful to him. On the contrary, it was helping him. If he didn’t have the strength to be Sect Leader, he could at least save his life.

As Zhou Qing said, the prerequisite for being the Sect Leader was to have the strength.

Bitter medicine cures illness.

Yang Chen thought it over in his heart. He indeed needed Zhou Qing’s help, and recommending Zhou Qing wasn’t a difficult task for him. However, first, he needed to figure out if the person who tried to assassinate him today was Zhou Qing or not.

With this thought in mind, Yang Chen said, “Vice Sect Master Zhou, at noon tomorrow, I will convene a meeting of all the people of the Luo Shengmen Sect. Tomorrow, I will give you my answer!”

“I understand.” Hearing Yang Chen’s reply, Zhou Qing didn’t hesitate and left.

Seeing Zhou Qing leave, Yang Chen reached out and grabbed the unconscious masked assassin.

Then, he sent his soul directly in and began searching.

“It’s not Zhou Qing… As I thought, it’s an assassin sent by Fu Yunhe.” Yang Chen murmured to himself.

Fu Yunhe thought that with his strength, he couldn’t perform a Soul Search on a Half-Step Earth Martial Realm assassin, but he didn’t know that it was an easy task for Yang Chen.

Conclusively that Fu Yunhe was behind it all, Yang Chen had a plan and result in his heart, and he coldly said, “It seems that you can never truly know someone. Fu Yunhe pretends to be respectful to me, but actually, he wants to stab me in the back. Hmph, he really takes me for a soft persimmon?” Yang Chen’s expression was cold and fierce.

He began to plan in his heart.

If the initial plans were just about how to deal with his personal issues, now he had to include his new ally Zhou Qing.

…

The second day, at noon.

Yang Chen spread the news and summoned all the high-level members of the Luo Shengmen Sect to the Great Hall, intending to hold a Sect Meeting.

Zhou Qing’s people were the first to arrive, with dozens of high-level individuals sitting in chairs, varying in strength but all had reached the Earth Martial Realm.

When Zhou Qing arrived, his eyes immediately locked on Yang Chen, waiting for Yang Chen’s answer.

He simply exchanged a glance with Yang Chen, understood Yang Chen’s intentions, and knew his own position.

“From now on, you all must obey Master Yang. Master Yang’s orders are my orders, understand? Remember, keep these thoughts hidden in your heart, and don’t say anything. Just remember my words.” Zhou Qing told every confidant beside him.

As he said, his subordinates were few, but each was an elite, and none would betray him. His words would be followed unconditionally.

Zhou Qing’s subordinates heard his orders and were all confused, not quite understanding what Zhou Qing meant. They looked at each other in bewilderment, but still remembered Zhou Qing’s words.

After Zhou Qing and Yang Chen established their ally relationship, Fu Yunhe brought a group of people to the Great Hall. Seeing Yang Chen, Fu Yunhe hypocritically said, “I pay my respects to the Sect Leader!”

As soon as Fu Yunhe finished speaking, the people behind him followed suit, “We pay our respects to the Sect Leader!”

It was obvious that the people behind Fu Yunhe still regarded Fu Yunhe as the leader, and didn’t take Yang Chen as the Sect Leader seriously at all.

How could Yang Chen not see this? But he didn’t make it clear nor explained it.

“Please, sit down,” Yang Chen said slowly. If the Sect Leader didn’t have some scheming, he might as well not be the Sect Leader.

Fu Yunhe and his subordinates sat down one after another, and Fu Yunhe asked, “Sect Leader, why have you called us here so early?”

“Why? It’s very simple, Fu Yunhe. Do you acknowledge me as Sect Leader?” Yang Chen asked.

Fu Yunhe didn’t understand what Yang Chen meant, but because yesterday Yang Chen defeated the assassin he sent, Fu Yunhe knew that Yang Chen was not ordinary and carefully said: “Of course!”

“Very well, I’m now the Sect Leader, but there’s no inauguration ceremony, no invitations sent to other forces. I don’t need to advertise that I’m the Luo Shengmen Sect Leader to the world, but I think at least all the forces in Hurricane City should be informed, right? Have you prepared the ceremony for me?” Yang Chen said with a smile.

Did he really think he could fool him with this?

With just a word, they let him be the Sect Leader.

Is that a joke? Which Sect Leader doesn’t send out invitations and festivities when they take office? This is necessary face and protocol, otherwise, if others don’t know that you’re the leader, what are you leading?

Hearing Yang Chen’s words, Fu Yunhe was completely choked and speechless.

“This…” Fu Yunhe’s expression became awkward.

“What’s wrong, Fu Yunhe?” Yang Chen asked assertively.

“Sect Leader, this ceremony is just superficial, there’s no need to pay so much attention to it. We can just ignore it. As long as we all treat you as the Sect Leader, isn’t that enough? Why bother informing others and doing these unnecessary steps?” Fu Yunhe said with a forced smile.

Yang Chen coldly said, “Fine, I don’t want the ceremony, but I want all the economic rights, elixirs, Spirit Stones, and distribution rights of Luo Shengmen.”

Fu Yunhe was completely dumbfounded.

He felt as if today’s Yang Chen was completely different from a few days ago in terms of aura and speech. Each sentence was a sharp point, leaving him unable to retort.

“Uh, uh…” Fu Yunhe didn’t know what to say.

Yang Chen sneered, “Hehe, what’s the matter, Fu Yunhe? You keep saying you want me to be the Sect Leader, but now you don’t agree to the inauguration ceremony and hesitate over the distribution of powers within Luo Shengmen. Do you not acknowledge me as Sect Leader?” Yang Chen said coldly.

Hearing Yang Chen’s words, Zhou Qing was amused.

He now felt that he had made a very correct choice. Every word of Yang Chen’s was right. He first discussed the inauguration ceremony for the Sect Leader and then talked about the issues of power. Fu Yunhe, do you want to give neither of them? That would be more severe than not wanting Yang Chen to be the Sect Leader; it would be openly causing trouble for Yang Chen.

Fu Yunhe obviously wasn’t ready to do that yet.

Fu Yunhe now felt like crying. At first, he thought Yang Chen was a hothead, and thought of keeping up appearances and letting him be a nominal Sect Leader.

In practice, Fuyunhe would still be the Sect Leader in the eyes of outside forces and everyone else, just as if Yang Chen was just a shell for a few days, and it would be harmless.

But now, Yang Chen actually wants an inauguration ceremony and to advertise to the entire Hurricane City. Once that happens, who wouldn’t know that Yang Chen is the Sect Leader? It won’t be easy to move against Yang Chen then!
