These words Elder Shen did not quite understand, but he also respectfully bowed:
"Yes, Old Ancestor is wise."
The Old Ancestor of Shen Family glanced at Elder Shen silently, coldly said:
"Your greatest fault in this matter is not failing to accept this disciple, but when trouble arose, you did not report upwards and instead thought to conceal it."
"According to usual rules, your position as Elder should be erased, but I give you an opportunity..."
"Find a way yourself, by any means necessary, to seize the Array Leader title at the next Array Discussion Conference."
"I only look at results; as long as the Array Leader belongs to my Qian Taoist Sect, I will overlook the past, and you may still be heavily used. Otherwise, you will be demoted to an ordinary elder, spend decades or even a hundred years, and climb back up step by step."
Cold sweat trickled down Elder Shen’s forehead, but the Old Ancestor’s orders left him no room to refuse, only capable of bowing repeatedly saying:
"Thank you Old Ancestor for forgiveness, I will do my utmost, sparing no efforts!"
The Old Ancestor of Shen Family waved his hand.
Elder Shen dared not speak further, respectfully withdrew.
After Elder Shen left, the Old Ancestor of Shen Family sat alone within the white jade pavilion, silently contemplating.
Half an hour later, he shook his head and sneered:
"Are all people dead, thinking to entrust their orphan?"
"What do they take my Qian Taoist Sect for?"
"Things are different now, do they still regard my Qian Taoist Sect as a subordinate sect, needing to bow and scrape, bearing their causality?"
The Old Ancestor of Shen Family snorted coldly.
...
The matter of the Three Sects Unification has already settled into dust.
At this time, the news was already spread out.
Not only outside, even disciples of Tai’a, Rushing Void, and Tai Xu Gate, upon learning this news, were also in an uproar.
They never expected that originally each sect was doing its own thing, merely possessing some ancestral ties, but in the blink of an eye, they were to merge.
Mo Hua was also very surprised.
He had thought that the three gates might reunite, but never anticipated such a day would truly come.
Moreover, this day arrived so swiftly, somewhat suddenly.
He recalled the words Elder Master Xun had spoken to him a few days prior:
"Once a Junior Brother, always a Junior Brother, it cannot change. And perhaps after some time you might become more people’s Junior Brother..."
Mo Hua was somewhat stunned.
Elder Master Xun’s words turned out to be true...
Moreover, Three Sects Unification...
Mo Hua rubbed his chin.
This "Junior Brother" inadvertently seemed to have "grown bigger and stronger"...
