Zither Emperor Chapter 464 Chapter 144 Bearing Two Sects Part 1

464: Chapter 144: Bearing Two Sects (Part 1) 464: Chapter 144: Bearing Two Sects (Part 1) Zi rank, Zi Zhu Douqi.

Everyone’s mind was echoing these two terms.

How old was Ye Yinzhu?

He wasn’t even eighteen yet this year!

And he wasn’t a secretly cultivated successor elder of the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans, nor had he undergone the special cultivation method of Butter Baptism.

Merely through his own cultivation, he reached the Zi Zhu rank before the age of eighteen, which in the whole Eight Eastern Dragon Clans was nothing short of a miracle, an unprecedented miracle.

Qin Shang’s daze was the most obvious; his mind kept replaying the words Ye Yinzhu had said when he first met him.

Douqi and magic of the same rank, meaning if his Douqi was Zi Zhu Douqi, then his Zither Magic must have also reached the level of Ziwei Qinxin!

Nobody knew better than Qin Shang what Ye Yinzhu’s cultivation level was before.

When he left the blue sky and sea area just over a year ago, he was at the Ninth Rank of Pure Qinxin.

In just over a year, he had jumped ten ranks to reach Zi level; this was truly beyond belief.

“Greetings to the Sect Master.” The color slowly returned to Ye Tian’s face.

As the second-in-mand of Zhu Sect, he didn’t have the thick skin as Wei Tingfeng of Chrysanthemum Clan had.

No matter what, he had ultimately lost.

Although somewhat unwilling to accept it, the fact that Ye Yinzhu had reached Zi Zhu Douqi before eighteen was indisputable.

After a brief loss, Ye Tian felt more excitement than ever.

He could clearly sense that the time for Zhu Sect’s rise was upon them.

While saying so, Ye Tian’s body knelt in front of Ye Yinzhu like a mountain collapsing and a pillar overturning, following the Zhu Sect’s unique etiquette to pay his respects.

Not only was Ye Yinzhu his nephew’s grandson, but he was also now the true Sect Master of Zhu Sect.

“Second Granduncle, there’s no need for such formality.” Ye Yinzhu quickly stepped forward to help Ye Tian up.

He ended the battle with a single strike to establish his authority; although winning by taking advantage of Ye Tian’s mentality was somewhat crafty, the display of Zi level strength was unquestionable.

Everyone’s stunned silence was gradually replaced by normalcy, with the Sect Masters of Hua Sect and Chess Sect seemingly murmuring something to themselves.

Ye Yinzhu vaguely heard them mention the names Ma Liang and Chang Hao.

Supreme Elder Wei Ming had a very ugly expression on his face, as he hadn’t expected that Zhu Sect wouldn’t embarrass themselves in front of the many powerful figures of the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans but instead significantly elevate their status.

A young Zi rank was different from the older generation.

Ye Yinzhu was not even eighteen!

His future prospects were immeasurable.

“Ye Li, you have a fine grandson,” Wei Ming reluctantly nodded, which was a recognition of Ye Yinzhu’s new identity as Zither Sect’s Sect Master.

Ye Li had just regained his posure, deeply gazing at his grandson.

It had been twenty years, and he had never been as excited as he was today; the pride his grandson had regained for him made this former leader of Zhu Sect stand tall.

His glance shifted to Lan Ruxue, as if to say, see, without you, I still raised a fine grandson.

Lan Ruxue snorted coldly, “Some people should probably leave now.”

Ye Li didn’t make a sound, turned around, and walked out boldly and confidently.

“Brother Ye, wait a moment,” Qin Shang’s voice halted Ye Li.

“Old Qin, what is it?

I no longer have the standing to stay here,” said Ye Li without turning his head back.

Qin Shang smiled and said, “Even if you want to go, you should take Old Ye Number Two with you, right?

Don’t tell me you’re really angry with him?

He did it for the good of Zhu Sect too.

Now that Yinzhu has received his approval, doesn’t it mean he has the approval of your entire Zhu Sect?”

Ye Li slowly turned back and gave Ye Tian, standing beside Ye Yinzhu, a glance, saying irritably, “Old Number Two, what are you still doing here?

Do you want others to chase you away?

Hurry up and follow me.”

“I’m ing, Big Brother,” Ye Tian said awkwardly as he walked up to Ye Li’s side, quietly saying, “Boss, can you stop calling me Old Number Two?

It’s not like I don’t have a name.”

Ye Li gave him a glance, “Old Number Two is Old Number Two, are you trying to get above me or what?

Let’s go.”

“Wait, there’s me too!” Qin Shang chuckled and walked over to Ye Yinzhu, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.

He smiled and said, “I’m just as lazy as Old Ye Li.

Since he’s stealing some leisure time, I also don’t want to be involved in any affairs anymore.

I have only Yin Zhu as my disciple, and I might as well pass the position of Zither Sect’s Sect Master to him.

There are only the two of us in our Zither Sect, so there’s no one to stop this.

Yin Zhu, from now on, you are the Zither Sect’s Sect Master.

In fact, the token of the Zither Sect and that of the Zhu Sect were given to you by your grandfather and me long ago.

The token of the Zither Sect is those Five Ancient Zithers, and the token of your Zhu Sect is the Green Silk.

Keep them safe.”

“Qin Shang, Ye Li, you both stop right there.” Wei Ming, greatly enraged, shouted at the three people who were leaving.

“Oh?

Does the Supreme Elder have something else to say?” Qin Shang turned and asked.

Wei Ming, furious, said, “Do you think the position of a Leader of the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans is an object that can just be given away?

Throughout the history of the Eight Sects, there has never been anyone who holds the positions of Sect Master for two different Sects, and moreover across both the Martial and Magic disciplines.

Under the name of the Supreme Elder, I reject your abdication.”

Qin Shang said indifferently, “Although there is no precedent, the ancestral instructions of the Eight Sects have never stated that one person cannot hold the positions of Sect Master for two Sects.

The position of Sect Master in our Eight Eastern Dragon Clans should be occupied by those who are virtuous.

Since both Ye Li and I believe Ye Yinzhu is well-suited for the role, then naturally, it should be passed on to him.”

If Qin Shang had any concerns about Ye Yinzhu before, those were gone after he saw Ye Yinzhu’s Zi Zhu Douqi and deduced the level of Ye Yinzhu’s Zither Magic.

He was confident that the disciple whom he had trained himself would be more than capable.

Now, the conflict between the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans and Qin City could only be resolved by Ye Yinzhu.

And in order to settle this dispute, Ye Yinzhu must first have a significant status within the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans.

That was the initial intention behind him and Ye Li passing on their positions to Ye Yinzhu.

Without waiting for Supreme Elder Wei Ming to speak again, the Ye brothers and Qin Shang, along with Mr.

and Mrs.

Ye Zhong, floated away.

Before leaving, Ye Zhong also gave his son a look, meaning to tell him to wait for his return at the Lord’s Mansion.

Ye Yinzhu returned and sat down next to his grandmother.

This time, his status was dramatically different from before.

Holding the positions of Sect Master of both sects, he now ranked above the other six Sect Masters.

After all, the Zhu Sect holds a pivotal place among the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans, and while the Zither Sect only included him and Qin Shang, the Zither Magic of the Zither Sect was recognized as the premier Magic of the Eastern Dragon.

The whole room was silent, at this point, people of the Eastern Dragon didn’t even know what to discuss anymore.

After a long while, it was Lan Ruxue, the one who had the closest relationship with Ye Yinzhu, who broke the silence.

“Yin Zhu, is everything Qin Shang just said true?”

Ye Yinzhu replied with a question, “Grandma, do you think I would joke about something like this?

Just now, Supreme Elder Wei Ming had also said that I e from one of the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans.

Even if I am dissatisfied with the decisions of the Eastern Dragon, I still have the blood of the people of Dong Long.

On such a critical matter of life and death, it is impossible for me to deceive.

This matter can be thoroughly investigated, I’m not the only survivor from the Seven Nations, Seven Dragons ranking battle.”

Lan Ruxue sighed and said, “But what’s done is done.

By now, the news of the establishment of the Eastern Dragon Empire has probably spread throughout the continent.

If we go out now and say there’s no such thing, how can our Eight Eastern Dragon Clans still call upon our black-haired, black-eyed kin to rebuild the empire?

Now that it has e to this, the Eastern Dragon Empire must be established.

And Qin City is our best chance to take root.

Since you also acknowledge being a part of the Eastern Dragon, I hope you can give up your personal interests for the future of the Eastern Dragon.

Can you promise me, to contribute Qin City, for the future of the Eastern Dragon Empire?”

Looking at Lan Ruxue, Ye Yinzhu’s gaze became colder and firm as he shook his head decisively and said, “I’m sorry, Grandma, I cannot agree to this.

Because Qin City is not solely about my interests now.

Perhaps you have already seen on your way here that there are other races present.

They are friends I invited, not subordinates of Qin City.

The gradually established Qin City is the result of everyone’s collective efforts.

Qin City does not belong to me alone; I have no authority to give it to the Eastern Dragon.

If the people of the Eight Sects wish to stay and receive protection from Qin City, then I have an inescapable duty.

After all, you are my relatives and clansmen.

However, if the Eight Sects wish to take control of Qin City, that is absolutely not possible.

Based on the reckless behavior of the current decision-makers of the Eight Sects, if I hand over Qin City to you, it will only lead to ruin, and I will also be unable to explain to the other partners in Qin City.

That is my stance.

Please consider it thoroughly.

Grandma, I must go now.”

After saying this, Ye Yinzhu stood up and walked outside.

Those present watched him leave, yet not a single person stopped him.

But some of them had an extremely cold look in their eyes.

Watching the retreating figure of her grandson, Lan Ruxue’s eyes revealed a trace of a bitter smile.

Indeed, he was as stubborn as his grandfather; like grandfather, like grandson!

“Qin City refuses to be governed; what should we do about this matter?” Wei Ming asked coldly.

Today, his anger had peaked due to the defiance from Ye Yinzhu’s family and Qin Shang.

Wei Tingfeng stepped forward again, “Supreme Elder, do we still need to hesitate?

Since they refuse to be governed, we should suppress them with military force.

This insignificant Qin City would be more than enough for our Chrysanthemum Clan to handle.

Once we pletely sweep them away, who else would dare disobey our orders?

Then, we will be the rulers of Qin City, and the grand opening ceremony of the Eastern Dragon Empire can proceed smoothly.”
