Chapter 787 Storm (1/2)
The white lion’s thunderous roar resounded across the void.
Three figures landed on the high platform under many gazes.
Yi Yan scanned the audience, his gaze pausing on Chen Beifeng and Ye Bingling.
“We pay respect to elder Yi Yan.” Chen Beifeng and Ye Bingling both gave a cupped fist salute. Before they become the pavilion master, their status would be lower than Yi Yan’s.
Yi Yan nodded slightly at the two.
Then Ye Bingling cast her beautiful eyes at the man and woman behind Yi Yan. But she only simply glanced at Zhou Yuan before she fixed her eyes on Yi Qiushui.
“She is the new deputy pavilion master? Although she isn’t weak, she isn’t strong enough to become a deputy pavilion master,” Ye Bingling muttered to herself as she scrunched her brows.
At the same time, Zhou Yuan’s gaze also ran across the thousands of extraordinary young figures in front of him. Seeing so many young heaven prides gathered together, he couldn’t help but marvel at the fact that Hunyuan Heaven was indeed blessed by heaven...
“Ahem...”
Yi Yan suddenly coughed slightly and attracted all eyes to him. Then he smiled faintly and said, “Presumably, everyone knows that there will be a third deputy pavilion master of the Wind Pavilion today.”
The smile of the man named Jin Teng grew wider. He had also quickly studied Zhou Yuan and Yi Qiushui, who were behind Yi Yan. He had only glanced at Zhou Yuan, who was at the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage, but had paid more attention to Yi Qiushui, who was at the advanced Divine Dwelling stage.
However, after a cursory glance, he knew that Yi Qiushui’s Genesis Qi foundation wasn’t as strong as his. He quickly threw away his previous worry because he knew that Yi Qiushui had no qualification to take on the post of deputy pavilion master.
And since it wasn’t her, who else but Jin Teng would be a suitable candidate?
“Next I’d like to introduce you to...”
Yi Yan stroked his beard and took a step sideways to let Zhou Yuan come forward.
Low sounds of disturbance arose in the courtyard, and numerous eyes went wide with disbelief.
“This is the third deputy pavilion master of the Wind Pavilion, Zhou Yuan. He was appointed by Lady Chi Jing.” Yi Yan didn’t deliberately keep everyone in suspense, and he finished speaking in one breath.
The smile on Jin Teng’s face faded, and his face stiffened.
All commotion in the square halted suddenly, and only the howling wind could be heard.
With difficulty, Ye Bingling shifted her gaze from Yi Qiushui to Zhou Yuan, whom she had ignored from the beginning. At this moment, she felt a sense of absurdity.
Someone of the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage had become a deputy pavilion master?
Chen Beifeng was similarly staring at Zhou Yuan with a ruminative smile.
Zhou Yuan calmly scanned the strangely silent square, and Yi Qiushui revealed a look of worry on her face because she knew very well how arrogant and proud these heaven prides in the Wind Pavilion were.
It seemed that Zhou Yuan becoming deputy pavilion master would cause quite a lot of storm.
The silence in the square lasted for more than ten breaths before an earthshaking noise erupted.
“Don’t joke! How can someone of the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage become one of the Wind Pavilion’s deputy pavilion masters?”
“What do you think the Wind Pavilion is?! A dumpsite? This is absolutely ridiculous!”
“This is definitely not Lady Chi Jing’s order! Someone has definitely passed on the wrong order!”
“Scram from the Wind Pavilion!”
“......”
All members of the Wind Pavilion were enraged because they were proud of being part of the Wind Pavilion. They were ferocious wolves yet were going to be led by a hunting dog? Wasn’t that an insult to them?!
“Has Lady Chi Jing gone senile?!”
Hearing this comment, Ye Bingling immediately raised her brow and snapped, “Impudence.”
She stamped her foot, and icy cold Genesis Qi suddenly spread outward from her feet. The Genesis Qi roared, tearing apart the crowd behind her, and then, with a loud bang, turned into countless sharp icicles that surrounded a figure.
The man surrounded by the icicles went pale, and he was afraid to move an inch.
“Whoever dares insult Lady Chi Jing again shouldn’t blame me for being impolite!” Ye Bingling warned, her face frosty.
