Chapter 3553: The New Sect Master

“What! A great elder of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants?”

“That’s impossible! How can he be a great elder of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants?”

“Senior daemon flower actually tied up a great elder of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants?”

“The Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants has actually been secretly coming after our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens the entire time?”

“Heavens, he’s actually a part of the upper echelon of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. The Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants is a supreme organisation only second to the Observance Heaven City on the Reverent Observance Heaven. They have far more than just one Immortal Exalt…”

When Xiang Shi voiced his identity, all of the disciples from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens shuddered inside. Many of them had been frightened out of their wits by the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

Even though they all knew that the Immortal Sect of Sword Control, the Immortal Sect of Scarlet Sunset, the Immortal Sect of Azures Foxes, and the Immortal Sect of Three Yang all had a powerful backing, they had never expected it to be the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

In the Immortals’ World, any organisation with an Immortal Exalt was known as a peak organisation.

However, the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants could no longer be described as a regular peak organisation.

“Great uncle, is it really appropriate to expose the sect like this? After all, our branch is not in a good position inside the sect.” Chen Shuzhi communicated to the middle-aged man in black as his deathly pale face recovered slightly.

He had already realised that despite his identity being exposed, it was only a matter of losing his position as sect master and all of his efforts over the years going to waste at most.

His life would not be under any threat at all.

That was because he was from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants!

On the vast Reverent Observance Heaven, what organisation was bold enough to blatantly kill a disciple of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants?

Perhaps as members of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, their only true worry were the threats and oppressions that arose from within.

Xiang Shi ignored Chen Shuzhi. He stared at Chen Shifang and elder Nong with shining eyes as he asked sternly, “You already know about my origins, so I have a question for you. Who exactly gave you that memory crystal?”

Xiang Shi’s tone and demeanour did not make him seem like a prisoner at all.

Even though he was still tied up by the Immortal Devouring Orchid, he still faced the people from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens with a haughty bearing.

“That would be inconvenient for us to tell you!” elder Nong answered calmly.

“Inconvenient for you to tell me?” Xiang Shi sneered slightly and said, “Even if you don’t tell me, our Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants will get to the bottom of this anyway before long. Even if it’s an Immortal Exalt who tried to get in our way, so what?”

The expressions of Elder Nong and Chen Shifang both changed slightly. The disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens standing behind them were also stern.

Immortal Exalts were already significant figures beyond their reach to the current Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, yet they seemed to be nothing particularly special to the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

“Sir, you seem to have forgotten something. You’re the prisoner right now. Even your fate is in the hands of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. Aren’t you afraid of ending up in a miserable situation for talking to the important members of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens like that?” Jian Chen said with composure.

“And who’re you supposed to be? You think you’re worthy of talking to me?” Xiang Shi glanced at Jian Chen and sneered. “A prisoner? Perhaps, but so what? Is your Sword Sect of Violet Heavens really bold enough to do anything to me?”

“Chen Shuzhi, since this has already been exposed, there’s no point for you to keep hiding. State your identity directly. I’d like to see what these ants from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens are bold enough to do to you.”

“Sect master, are you really from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants?” a core disciple from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens asked from behind, wanting to receive an answer from Chen Shuzhi himself.

Chen Shuzhi was indifferent. Everything had already come so far. He knew it was pointless to keep arguing, so he nodded his head slowly and admitted to it personally. “That’s right, I am indeed from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.”

Having received his personal confirmation, the core disciples who still believed in Chen Shuzhi earlier all became ashen.

“Chen Shuzhi, with your strength, even in a colossal organisation like the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, you possess a certain amount of status. Why did you not become an elder of a peak organisation with your status, instead coming to our measly Sword Sect of Violet Heavens to suffer grievances? Don’t tell me it was all just to make our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens perish in a logical manner?” elder Nong asked sternly.

Chen Shuzhi shook his head gently and sighed. “Elder Nong, there is something that you’ve mistaken. I might be an Immortal Monarch right now, and I’ll be an elder at the very least in the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, but my branch’s bloodline is mixed and impure. The Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants is a group that places great emphasis on bloodline. Let alone Immortal Monarchs of our branch, even Immortal Emperors will still face prejudice in the sect, possessing a very low status. Let alone the experts of other branches constantly taunting and mocking us, even some Immortal Exalt ancestors in the sect don’t have a particularly high opinion of us.”

“As a result, the status of our branch is under constant danger in the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. We face prejudice and discrimination everywhere.”

“The only way for us to change our status in the sect is to commit meritorious deeds, but given the lofty status of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, what contributions can we make? As a result, we can only go after the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.”

“To the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens is so puny that they’re even less than an ant, but unfortunately, there is a reason that everyone is aware of that prevents the sect from going after the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.”

“That was why I came to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens is a colossal opportunity to our branch, as well as a colossal contribution that we could make.”

When Chen Shuzhi reached that point, Jian Chen’s expression became rather strange. “I’ve heard from my seniors that when the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was at its peak, they had once enslaved the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. Many experts of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants had even been reduced to mounts of the disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. That’s obviously a great stain of disgrace to them, so their objective is to make the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens disappear forever.”

“Young sect master, is that true? The Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants was once enslaved by our sect?”

When Jian Chen said that, everyone from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens shuddered inside. They were all filled with disbelief.

Apart from elder Nong, no one knew about such history, as the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants was far too powerful now. On the entire Reverent Observance Heaven, basically no one was bold enough to mention their smears of disgrace from the past.

All dishonourable parts of history had been hidden and censored.

“Chen Shuzhi, from this moment onwards, you are no longer the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens!” Elder Nong suddenly announced at this moment.

Under normal circumstances, elder Nong did not have the authority to dismiss the sect master. He did not even have the right to order the sect master around.

But right now, Chen Shuzhi’s identity had already been confirmed. Given the situation, no one in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens had any objections towards elder Nong’s suggestion.

Even the core disciples of questionable origins were unable to say anything.

“Chen Shuzhi, hand over the things that belong to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. Don’t force me to take action,” said Chen Shifang. His presence as a Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch pressed against Chen Shuzhi firmly. He was ready to take action at any moment.

Chen Shuzhi sighed with mixed emotion. He stood on the spot for a good moment before handing over his Space Ring obediently in the end.

“All of the resources of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens are inside. I’ve already given you everything, so please let senior daemon flower release my great uncle, elder Nong. My great uncle and I will leave immediately,” said Chen Shuzhi.

Elder Nong’s eyes shone with uncertainty when he heard that. Clearly, releasing Xiang Shi was not something that he could decide.

“Chen Shuzhi, you did so many things detrimental to the sect in secret, and you colluded with outsiders in an attempt to harm elder Nong. You’ve committed all of these crimes, yet you still think you can leave the sect alive?” Jian Chen said.

Chen Shuzhi looked at Jian Chen calmly and said, “Jian Chen, you may be the young sect master, but this is not something that you can decide.” As he said that, he turned towards elder Nong. “Elder Nong, if you want to stop us from leaving, you better consider the consequences. Letting us leave peacefully is the only way for the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens to get out of this situation.”

Elder Nong arrived by Jian Chen’s side and said, “The sect cannot go a day without a sect master. Jian Chen is the young sect master, so he serves as the perfect candidate to inherit the position. As a result, from today onwards, I suggest that Jian Chen should inherit the position of sect master and become the new leader of our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens!”

The core disciples present all looked at one another when they heard that. Many of them looked at Chen Shifang.

“Elder Nong, we feel like junior brother Chen is more suited to the position of the sect master.”

“Junior brother Chen is the perfect choice to become the sect master with his cultivation as a Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch. Our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens is in need of an expert who can keep up our appearance.”

Many of the core disciples spoke up.

However, when he heard what they said, Chen Shifang’s expression immediately changed. He panicked inside. If he did not know about Jian Chen’s strength, then so be it, but since he knew, he would never try to surmount Jian Chen even if he were a hundred times bolder.

“Stop with the nonsense. I have no interest in becoming the sect master, nor have I ever wanted to become the sect master.” Chen Shifang responded on his feet and arrived before Jian Chen with a flash, directly dropping down on one knee in front of everyone and lowering his head. “Greetings, sect master, From today onwards, I am willing to follow the sect master’s lead and abide by all of your orders!”

Chen Shifang’s actions immediately stunned everyone present. In particular, the core disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens were all dumbfounded.

After all, Chen Shifang was a Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch, while the young sect master Jian Chen was only a Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal.

Even in those peak organisations, it was virtually impossible for a Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor to bow down to a Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal.

“Since even Chen Shifang has no objections, then this is what we’re doing. The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens will now be following sect master Jian Chen’s lead in everything!” Elder Nong also bowed deeply towards Jian Chen. He said sincerely, “Sect master, please decide on how we will handle these two people!”
