Chapter 780: Really a shrewd and calculating person!
Chapter 780: Really a shrewd and calculating person!
She said that old man Xuanyuan Wen was not an easy person to deal with!
Now it seems that she really guessed right.
Perhaps Xuanyuan Wen had anticipated that once he died, the prince would definitely come to ask for the Di Zong Sect’s leader’s order, so before he died that night, he deliberately announced verbally that Gu Chan would take over the position of sect leader, but did not give Gu Chan the sect leader’s order.
As for where the sect leader’s order is hidden now, that is a big problem.
In short, the order of the leader of the Di Zong was lost, and no one knew where Xuanyuan Wen had hidden it.
Xuanyuan Long naturally didn’t understand the situation. Seeing that the nine team leaders were all speechless after being choked by Gu Chan, he immediately glared at the nine people and shouted, “Then let me ask you, where is the Earth Sect leader’s order now? Is it in your hands?”
“My Lord, we have been looking for the Sect Master’s Order for the past three days!”
“Yes! We searched the entire Dizong, but we couldn’t find it at all.”
“In my opinion, the old master must have hidden it before he died, otherwise we wouldn’t have been able to find it.”
The nine team leaders explained one after another, each with a bitter face, looking extremely helpless.
Xuanyuan Long and Yan Li were dumbfounded on the spot.
Because they could all see that each of these nine people was a powerful warrior, and they all did not submit to Gu Chan at all. Everyone wanted to be the new leader of the Di Sect, otherwise they would not have searched everywhere inside the Di Sect for the leader’s order.
But the problem is that no one knows where this old fox Xuanyuan Wen hid the sect leader’s order during his lifetime. When he was dying, he only verbally announced that Gu Chan would take over the position of sect leader, and he did not give him the sect leader’s order.
Therefore, under this circumstance, whether it was asking Gu Chan to take out the sect master’s order or asking the nine team leaders of the Di Zong to take out the sect master’s order, it would be impossible.
How could this not leave them dumbfounded?
Yan Li was even more angry and whispered, “What a wise old prince! He is so shrewd! He can actually do this. This is beyond our expectation.”
“My prince, since the nine leaders of the nine teams of the Di Zong are all here, I will hand over this huge Di Zong to you today. In the future, you must uphold the great spirit of the old prince and manage the Di Zong well! Otherwise, he will not be able to rest in peace in his nine springs.” Gu Chan said with a wicked smile.
The leader of Team Nine instantly became anxious.
They are not fools and they understand that if the Di Zong falls into Gu Chan’s hands, they can at least live a good life in the future. But if the Di Zong falls into the hands of the cruel prince, it is hard to say how long they can survive.
No, a team leader spoke first, “My Lord, what Prince Chan said is wrong. Since the old sect leader entrusted the Earth Sect to him before he died, he must take responsibility for the Earth Sect in the future. How can he easily put the blame on you!”
“Yes, after you ascend the throne, you will have to deal with a lot of things every day. How can we let you distract yourself from our small Di Zong? It is better to let Prince Chan be the leader and manage Di Zong.”
“Yes, yes, yes. We all agree that it is better to give the hard and tiring work of managing Dizong to Prince Chan. We cannot let you, the Crown Prince, work too hard.”
The other leaders followed suit, and none of them wanted Gu Chan to leave the Earth Sect to Xuanyuan Long. Xuanyuan Long wanted to get angry! It seemed that every word said by the nine team leaders was reasonable, but he didn’t want to get angry! It was obvious that they didn’t want him to take over the Earth Sect.
For a moment, he sat in his chair, not knowing what to say.
Gu Chan suppressed her laughter and said, “My Lord, I didn’t do anything against you today! I listen to you very much. Anyway, this is the current situation. If you want to take over the Earth Sect, I will give it to you. If you don’t want to take over the Earth Sect, I will take care of it temporarily. When I find the Sect Master Order hidden by the old prince, I will give you both the Earth Sect and the Sect Master Order. That’s fine, you decide!”
“Okay, okay, whether it’s the Imperial uncle or you, you are all smart. I have learned a lesson today. Since we can’t find the clan leader’s order, and the leaders of your nine teams are so biased towards Gu Chan, then I will let you do whatever you want. I want to see what kind of storm you can stir up under my nose.” Xuanyuan Long roared angrily.
After saying that, he stood up with a livid face and left with Yan Li in rage.
“Hahaha……”
As soon as the two of them walked out the door, Gu Chan couldn’t hold back any longer and burst into laughter.
It’s such a great feeling that you can’t stand me but can’t get rid of me!
The nine team leaders all stared at Gu Chan, wondering in their hearts whether she knew where the sect leader’s order was hidden.
After Gu Chan finished laughing, she stared at the nine people and said, “I will leave Kyoto tonight and rush to Diyue Country, so now as the sect master, I order the nine of you to be deputy sect masters. After I leave, the nine of you will manage the entire Dizong on my behalf. When I come back in half a year, I will collect everyone’s evaluation of you, and then choose one person from the nine of you to officially become the new sect master.”
“Yes, Sect Master.” The nine people responded hurriedly.
Originally, they were worried that Gu Chan would suppress them after taking office, but judging from the current situation, they were indeed overthinking.
From the beginning to the end, Gu Chan had never had any big ideas about the position of the Di Zong leader. Now, she has found a way to give the nine of them a chance. This means that as long as the nine of them perform well in the Di Zong during the six months she is away and get the support of everyone in the Di Zong, they will have the hope of becoming the new Di Zong leader in half a year.
In this way, they would certainly no longer have any complaints against Gu Chan.
Gu Chan calmed the nine people down, and then suddenly had an idea and said, “By the way, while I’m gone, you’d better not look for the Sect Master’s Order again. This thing can save your life if used well, but it can hasten your death if used poorly. If you want to live longer, you’d better not touch it. Don’t let the prince kill you and blame me for not warning you in advance. That would be bad.”
“Yes, Sect Master, we will remember it.” The nine people said in unison.
Gu Chan smiled evilly and waved her hand, saying, “Alright, go and settle the chaos in the Earth Sect for me, don’t waste time here.”
How could the nine of them go against Gu Chan? They all nodded hurriedly, and then ran forward like rabbits to settle the mess they had caused before.
Seeing how enthusiastic they were, Gu Chan left Dizong with peace of mind and returned to the princess’s mansion to pack her luggage.
What she didn’t notice was that not long after she left Dizong, the big white rabbit that Xuanyuan Wen had raised before quietly climbed over the wall and ran away secretly behind her.
