Chapter 479 Chief Disciple Sea (2/2)

It was obviously Yaoyao.

Li Qingchan’s lips curled slightly, easily picturing Yaoyao asking her whether she was wrong again.

“He is quite the monster…” Muttered Li Qingchan as she glanced towards Zhou Yuan’s far away figure.

The fact that Zhou Yuan could draw such words from a Chosen such as herself showed how highly she regarded him.

Beside Li Qingchan, Kong Sheng was completely silent, but anyone could see the thick layer of frost covering his face. Nearby, Zhao Zhu had already begun cursing.

Who else could he be cursing but Yuan Hong for being useless.

At the sight of Kong Sheng’s appearance, the other Chosens could only chuckle inside, not daring to provoke him at such a time.

Only Chu Qing sighed, before he looked over and said, “Junior brother Kong Sheng, it looks like I was a step ahead of you again. When will you be passing me the Genesis jade?”

Veins popped out on Kong Sheng’s forehead.

Chu Qing rubbed his bald head as he displayed a dazzling smile, “No hurry, no hurry. Junior brother Kong Sheng can always write me an IOU first if you can’t pay up for the moment.”

A chilling voice shot out from the gaps between Kong Sheng’s teeth.

“Scram!”

Even higher up in the sky.

Six majestic figures were seated in the sky. However, even these six figures were likewise a little out of it as they gazed upon the collapsing mountain top.

One could easily imagine how unexpected this was if it could affect even individuals like them.

Cough!

Sect master Qing Yang was the first to recover. He coughed softly, before looking towards peak master Ling Jun. The latter was no longer able to maintain his usual faint smile, and his face was currently a little ugly.

On the other hand, peak master Lianyi was grinning from ear to ear as she said, “This year's chief disciple selection has been quite a rollercoaster. Hehe, peak master Ling Jun, we’ll be gladly receiving the resources of your Sword Cometh Peak.”

Though the other peak masters did not say anything, the corners of their lips were clearly twitching a little.

Back then, peak master Ling Jun had gone against the majority opinion, and transferred Lu Hong’s faction to Saint Genesis Peak. He had also promised them that if Lu Hong’s faction failed to obtain the chief disciple seat, Sword Cometh Peak would give a fifth of their cultivation resources as compensation to the other peaks.

That was a tremendous amount of cultivation resources. Even to people like them, losing such an amount would be very painful.

Peak master Ling Jun’s expression akin to a frozen lake, his tightly clenched hands betraying the boiling anger inside.

Sect master Qing Yang waved his hand, stopping peak master Lianyi’s gloating provocations. He fell silent for a brief moment, before ultimately deciding to speak, “The chief disciple position of Saint Genesis Peak has ended up with elder Shen Taiyuan’s group, while Lu Hong’s faction has failed.

“In accordance with the meeting we had before, peak master Ling Jun promised to give up a fifth of Sword Cometh Peak’s cultivation resources next year. I hope that peak master Ling Jun will be understanding in this matter.”

Although he pitied peak master Ling Jun a little, sect master Qing Yang naturally needed to be impartial. Hence, he had to be slightly heartless this time even if it was akin to cutting off peak master Ling Jun’s flesh.

After all, it was a promise peak master Ling Jun personally made to all the other peak masters. If he failed to adhere to it, the other peak masters would certainly not let this matter rest.

Peak master Ling Jun took in a deep breath. He did not say anything, and merely slowly nodded his head.

Sect master Qing Yang did not say anything else on this matter. His gaze shifted towards the collapsing mountain top as he waved his sleeve, causing the collapsing to stop.

A mysterious power seemed to descend from the sky. Countless disciples could only watch in astonishment as the giant mountain began to repair itself at this moment.

Boulders rose into the air as greenery grew once more.

In a short span of a few dozen seconds, the crumbling mountain peak had returned to its original state. Exactly the same as before as it continued to tower over the land.

One could only gasp in amazement at this sight.

To destroy a mountain was an easy task that one could accomplish at the Alpha-Origin stage, but to return a destroyed mountain to its original state was a feat that required a completely different level of power.

This was basically akin to shaping the land.

A boulder carrying the heavily injured Yuan Hong slowly rose into the sky and gently landed on the mountain top.

Zhou Yuan was similarly shocked by what he had just seen, as respect rose in his eyes. The power to shape and change the land itself had surpassed the boundaries of his imagination.

Sect master Qing Yang looked down from high up in the sky with a kind gaze.

A stone throne slowly rose behind Zhou Yuan, the two words ‘chief disciple’ inscribed upon it.

Zhou Yuan heart churned with emotion as he stared at the throne. He bowed towards the far away sect master Qing Yang, before seating himself on the throne amidst countless envious gazes.

The moment he was seated, a ray of light arose from the throne and soared into the sky, standing on the mountain like a glowing pillar that supported the heavens, allowing the entire Cangxuan Sect to clearly view it.

At the same time, sect master Qing Yang’s grand voice echoed across the land.

“Saint Genesis Peak’s chief disciple selection has concluded.”

“And their chief disciple is Zhou Yuan!”

Innumerable disciples looked towards the young figure seated upon the stone throne, respect flowing out in their eyes, as they bowed towards him.

Countless voices rang out in an orderly fashion.

“Congratulations chief disciple Zhou Yuan!”
