450: Chapter 172: If You Don’t Agree, Let’s Fight_4 450: Chapter 172: If You Don’t Agree, Let’s Fight_4 The Hidden Dragon View Master, Elder Gu Chengyu, and Yun Qi had all reached the Earth Immortal Realm, capable enough to face unexpected situations.
However, their cultivation base, for the time being, also carried no risk of falling into a deep slumber, so having them lead the teams was the most suitable course of action.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingluan felt a stir in her heart and said, “However, Sect Leader, with Hidden Dragon View Master responsible for Hidden Dragon Observatory, if she is not around, shouldn’t the deputy take over the duties of the View Master temporarily?
In fact, the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth is drawing ever closer, and eventually, Hidden Dragon View Master will have to enter slumber.
The deputy, who is merely at Perfect Completion Golden Core, will not fall into slumber.
Wouldn’t it be better to take this opportunity to directly appoint the deputy as the new Master of Hidden Dragon View?”
“There is no need,” Bai Fengzi waved his hand and said, “Actually, I had already appointed another deputy earlier, but he was too busy, and at the time, I was planning to have him succeed as View Master, so I didn’t formally notify all of you.
I was going to tell you all when he officially took office as the View Master, but since you’ve brought it up, I might as well inform you now.”
“A deputy?” Chen Qingluan and the plenty of Peak Masters were visibly caught off guard; they truly did not know that a new deputy had been appointed for Hidden Dragon Observatory.
Full of curiosity, Chen Qingluan asked, “Then, Sect Leader, who is this deputy?
“You all know him, he is actually a Peak Master,” Bai Fengzi smiled as he mentioned Cao Zhen, recalling all that Cao Zhen had done for the Hundred Peaks Sect, “It is Four Treasures Peak’s Cao Zhen, Peak Master Cao.”
“Cao Zhen!” Chen Qingluan looked incredulously at Bai Fengzi and asked, “Him?
How could it be him?”
“Why can’t it be Cao Zhen!” Tu Zhuque, as if someone from his own peak was being questioned, didn’t even wait for Bai Fengzi to speak and exclaimed, “What’s wrong with Peak Master Cao?
These past days, the visitors who came to our Hundred Peaks Sect for discourse, one after another, have all been bested by Peak Master Cao.
And have you not heard the news from Thousand Caves Door?
Cao Zhen single-handedly wreaked havoc through the entire sect. Updates are released by novel-fire.net
Whether it’s alchemy or formations, talisman making, or mechanical techniques, and even the six paths of agriculture—Peak Master Cao is a master of them all.
Is there anyone more suitable to be the Master of Hidden Dragon View than him?”
“Indeed,” Bai Fengzi continued, “This was also what Hidden Dragon View Master explicitly stated.
It was Hidden Dragon View Master who recommended him, and I agreed too.
Therefore, let it be settled now.
You need not have any objections.
Now go and prepare the candidates for the journey to the Capital City.”
She had originally planned to wait until Cao Zhen obtained his Golden Core before letting him take over as the Master of Hidden Dragon Observatory.
But Cao Zhen’s recent performance had convinced her otherwise.
Cao Zhen was even more versatile than she had imagined, leading her to believe there was nothing he could not do.
Such an individual would be a waste if he didn’t become the Master of Hidden Dragon Observatory!
Moreover, this time at the Great Gathering of the Competition Among Immortals, Cao Zhen should also participate.
Although there was only a month left until the start of the assembly, he believed that Cao Zhen would certainly not continue with the level of seven Core Formation cultivations at the event.
Given Cao Zhen’s ability as a reincarnated being of great powers, a month’s time should suffice for Cao Zhen to condense a Golden Core.
“Yes,” Chen Qingluan helplessly agreed.
With the Sect Leader True Person having said so much, what else could she say?
She really didn’t understand what sort of spell Cao Zhen had cast on the Sect Leader True Person to warrant such protection!
She knew all too well that after Cao Zhen left the Hundred Peaks Sect, the disciples of Four Treasures Peak had purchased many materials of great value.
Additionally, there were those who discovered that Four Treasures Peak had mortgaged their two Spirit Fields before the martial contest.
And right after the contest, the people from Four Treasures Peak promptly repaid the debt and reclaimed the mortgaged Spirit Fields’ receipts.
It appeared that Four Treasures Peak was quite wealthy.
So the question arose, where did Four Treasures Peak get all that money?
Then, someone saw the disciples of Four Treasures Peak in contact with the Four Evils of Hundred Peaks!
The Four Evils of Hundred Peaks, they were the ones who openly broke with Cao Zhen.
Why would the people of Four Treasures Peak meet the Four Evils of Hundred Peaks?
And they did so secretively.
Besides, what did the Four Evils of Hundred Peaks bet on during the great upheaval at Hundred Peaks?
They bet that Four Treasures Peak would rank in the hundredth position.
And indeed, Four Treasures Peak ended up exactly at the hundredth place.
It was clear to everyone that the prowess of Four Treasures Peak was not merely at a hundredth ranking.
Yet, the people from Four Treasures Peak encountered various accidents, ending up at the hundredth place.
Considering all these factors, suspicions arose that Four Treasures Peak had deliberately lost, with the purpose of profiting from everyone’s money.
At that time, several Peak Masters who had lost many Spirit Stones at the grand competition of Hundred Peaks alliance sought Bai Fengzi, asking the Sect Leader to investigate this matter.
Yet they were all driven away by the Sect Leader True Person!
The suspicions of those Peak Masters were very reasonable, and deliberately losing directly at the Hundred Peaks grand competition was what?
That was an insult to the grand competition of Hundred Peaks.
Yet the Sect Leader True Person didn’t even conduct an investigation, which showed the extent of protection the Sect Leader True Person had for Cao Zhen and Four Treasures Peak.
The Sect Leader’s actions bewildered her, but what perplexed her even more was the Grand Preceptor.
In the whole Immortal cultivation world of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, who didn’t know the Grand Preceptor was the top expert of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty?
Although nobody liked the Grand Preceptor, they all admitted, deep down, they were afraid of him.
