Yuan Yujun was furious when she heard Xu Hao speak to her in this manner: "Xu Hao, although your strength is formidable, you are not a mber of our Xuann. You are interfering in our internal affairs, which is not your place!"
Yuan Yujun's words were powerful and resonant, as if she was truly standing up for Xuann.
But at that mont, the Xuan Sect Leader suddenly smiled and said, "Young Master Xu, if you are willing, I would like to invite you to beco our Xuann Honorary Elder now. Would you accept?"
As soon as the Xuan Sect Leader spoke, Yuan Yujun was instantly dumbfounded.
The Sect Leader was so partial to Xu Hao!
The Fifth Elder was even more furious and said, "Sect Leader! Our Xuann has always been made up of won. When has there ever been a man as an elder? You are violating the ancestral teachings!"
If Xu Hao were not a Xuann Elder, then there might still be a chance to deal with her.
But once Xu Hao beca an Honorary Elder of Xuann, his power would be enormous!
He could completely rightfully deal with the Fifth Elder, and she would have to fulfill the bet she made earlier.
Because in any family or sect, the title of Honorary Elder is extrely difficult to bestow. Once soone holds it, it ans they have power surpassing most elders of the family or sect, second only to the Family Head, Great Elder, and a select few others.
The title of Honorary Elder is often given by a faction to win over soone, so having such superior power is quite normal.
However, from ancient tis to the present, Xuann has never had any male beco a disciple, let alone hold such an important position as Honorary Elder.
So, at this mont, not only the Fifth Elder but also the other visiting elders frowned slightly, feeling that the Sect Leader's words seed sowhat inappropriate.
The Xuan Sect Leader said coldly, "Since there are differing opinions, we will discuss this further upon our return to Xuann. Young Master Xu, but I must first seek your consent. Are you willing to be our Honorary Elder?"
Xu Hao smiled and said, "If you agree, then of course I am willing. After all, I would prefer to have another ally rather than an enemy."
Zhou Shuran pursed her lips. If Xu Hao beca an Honorary Elder of Xuann, his status there would be extrely exalted, making it impossible for her to oppose him within the sect without violating sect rules and facing disciplinary action.
But then she thought, when her strength surpasses Xu Hao's, defeating him as a disciple while he is an Honorary Elder would be even more satisfying, wouldn't it?
Thinking of this, she suddenly beca even more excited.
Xu Hao gave Zhou Shuran a slightly surprised look, wondering why this girl seed sowhat abnormal now.
...
Huadu.
When Su Qingshan saw his master, Ghost Thirteen, relay information to the Gushen Sect, he imdiately ordered people to pay closer attention to Xu Hao's movents.
When he learned that Xu Hao had left Huadu to go to the Gushen Sect for a rescue mission, he burst into laughter and said, "Hahaha! Master, Xu Hao has left Huadu to court death, shall we take action now?"
Ghost Thirteen nodded slightly and said, "We can, taking Xu Hao's group headquarters by storm and capturing all those close to Xu Hao in one swift move. Even if Xu Hao escapes by chance, he will be utterly devastated."
Su Qingshan quickly caught the implication in Ghost Thirteen's words and asked, "Master, is it possible for Xu Hao to escape?"
Ghost Thirteen said, "It's impossible to kill Xu Hao. We all know that soone of Xu Hao's genius cannot be killed. At least, we can't kill him until we have produced another genius at least equal to him. It sounds convoluted, but all you need to rember is that Xu Hao cannot be killed for now.
But we can detain him and extract all his information. However, Xu Hao is no ordinary person, and he might escape. But you can trust that Elder Zuo and others are capable, so even if Xu Hao does escape, he'll be battered and exhausted, and we need not worry about his revenge."
Su Qingshan was greatly shocked in his heart, hearing for the first ti that a genius of Xu Hao's caliber couldn't be killed!
Even if we were to kill him, we would have to ensure that we could cultivate another genius not inferior to Xu Hao first.
Why is there such a notion?
Is there so kind of rule restricting everyone?
Isn't it said that there are no longer Martial sovereign Level experts in this world?
Who could possibly restrain a large sect like the Gushen Sect?
Su Qingshan's puzzlent not only lingered but grew worse the more he thought about it.
As if reading Su Qingshan's mind, Ghost Thirteen said lightly, "Disciple, cultivate well, and when you reach Great Perfection of Late Stage Grandmaster level, I will naturally tell you."
Su Qingshan felt a bit speechless; he wasn't even at Grandmaster level yet, and achieving Great Perfection of Late Stage Grandmaster level would take forever, a day far in the future!
