Chapter 5349 5347-Managing Vice Sect Leader
"..." Everyone looked at each other speechlessly. He said it as if he was serious, but in fact, it was equivalent to not saying anything.
This was not Hong Qingyuan's fault. From his point of view, there was really no other way. After all, in any case, a new generation of Masters like Xue Jianfeng must bear a heavy responsibility. If he could not make full use of the talents of the perfect Jindan stage Masters, then it would be a dereliction of his duty as the sect leader.
However, in order to control the overall situation, Hong Qingyuan could not let Xue Jianfeng, a rising star, overshadow the host. Otherwise, based on the behavior of Xue Jianfeng and his father, Xue Liping, it would definitely be out of control in the future, and that would be a big problem.
"Sect leader Hong, do you mean that this is an important topic for today?" Chi qianqiu and the others exchanged glances.
"That's right. Everyone, please take a seat first. There's no need to rush the fight for the seats. If you can express your opinions and come up with a conclusion, I think there's no need to fight anymore. What do you all think?" Hong Qingyuan suggested.
"Alright," he said. Chi qianqiu didn't hesitate and led the elders to their seats.
"Then ... Who will speak first?" Hong Qingyuan looked around the room. Only he, the sect leader, had the final say in such matters. However, the more he did so, the more he could not reveal his attitude in advance. Only by remaining silent and letting everyone express their opinions could he have the greatest initiative.
Chi qianqiu and the others looked at each other and remained silent. As they had not been informed in advance, no one dared to speak rashly before all the pros and cons were clear.
"Then I'll say a few words first?" Xue Liping laughed and said,""As the saying goes," selecting a worthy person doesn't avoid relatives. "Although Feng 'er is my son, since he is now a master of the great circle of the jiedan stage, I think he should be arranged to a corresponding important position. Otherwise, if word gets out, not only will it be difficult to convince the public, but he may also be laughed at by outsiders, which would be inappropriate."
Vice sect leader Xue, you might as well make it clear. What kind of important position do you think he should be given?" Chi qianqiu narrowed his eyes and asked.
"As a master who is second only to the Grand Elder, I think he should at least have the position of the number two figure. Of course, I didn't say that he should be the sect leader. After all, he is still young and has no experience. He can't control the overall situation for the time being." Xue Liping said.
Hong Qingyuan's eyelids twitched when he heard this. He kept his expression unchanged, but he couldn't help but curse in his heart. He couldn't control the overall situation for the time being. Did that mean he wanted to control the overall situation in the future? It turned out that this father and son duo didn't want the second-in-command at all, but were preparing to scheme for his position as the sect leader!
Although Chi qianqiu and the others frowned upon hearing this, they were laughing in their hearts. This father and son pair were really too arrogant. Weren't they clearly pushing Hong Qingyuan to their side?
"The second position? From the literal meaning, those below the sect leader are naturally the Deputy sect leaders. Deputy sect leader tingxue, are you saying that you're prepared to abdicate and give your position to your son?" The third elder grinned.
"I have no objection to that. Although there is no such thing as a son taking over his father's business in snow sword sect, your family's situation is special. You have such a good son. I think it's barely possible to let him replace you as the Deputy sect leader." The fifth elder declared.
"Additional suggestion." The fourth elder nodded.
"I also agree." The second elder also nodded.
"Since that's what everyone is thinking, then I have no objections." Chi qianqiu also nodded. It was no longer realistic to force Xue Jianfeng to take the position. Since that was the case, he might as well let him replace his father's position. He was already used to fighting with the Deputy sect leader anyway, so it didn't matter if the Father was replaced by a son.
"Hehe, everyone seems to have misunderstood. I have always been a conscientious Deputy sect leader. Even if I don't have any credit, I have worked hard. Besides, I have never said that I want to abdicate my position to someone better, right?" Xue Liping laughed coldly.
"Also, let me add that my father, as the Deputy sect leader, doesn't seem to be the second-in-command figure. Elder Chi, haven't you always claimed to be superior to my father?" Xue Jianfeng said.
"From what you're saying, you're interested in my position as the great elder?" Chi qianqiu could not help but laugh.
"Xue Jianfeng, Oh Xue Jianfeng, although you are young, you have grown up in the sect. Don't you know how you got the position of great elder? The great elder is the same as the sect leader, both are chosen by the elder Council through a vote. At the same time, they also need to obtain the personal approval of the Grand Elder. Do you think you can be the great elder just because you want to?" The second elder scoffed.
"That's right. Besides strength, the most important thing for a great elder is his contribution to the sect and his profound qualifications. Which of these two do you think you are qualified for?" The other elders chimed in.
"..." Xue Jianfeng was stunned. Although these words were unpleasant, he really had no way to refute them. Besides the strength of the perfect golden core realm, he had nothing else. There was no need to mention his qualifications. As for his contribution to the sect, Chi qianqiu was the brother of the previous sect leader, who was now the Grand Elder. Back then, he had even made a great contribution. In the entire snow sword sect, no one could be compared to him. What had he, Xue Jianfeng, done?
"You've misunderstood me. I've never wanted to be the sect's great elder. " Xue Jianfeng could only say.
"Then what do you want to do?" Everyone looked at each other.
"Deputy sect leader, but you need to add two words in front, routine." Xue Jianfeng said directly.
"The managing vice sect leader?!" Everyone was instantly stunned, and then their expressions changed. Chi qianqiu, the great elder, was able to slightly suppress the Deputy sect leader by virtue of his seniority and were basically on the same level as him. However, the managing Deputy sect leader, as the name suggested, was obviously above the ordinary Deputy sect leader. Naturally, he would also be above the great elder. That would make him the number two figure in the elders Council!
"So you're saying that you're going to have an extra vice sect leader?" Chi qianqiu looked at the unmoved Hong Qingyuan and said,""Sect leader Hong, do you think this is necessary?"
"Yeah, is there a need for that?" Hong Qingyuan did not answer directly. Instead, he went with the flow and looked at Xue Jianfeng.
