C896 Pushing out the Leader

With that in mind, Du Qi gave up on the idea of leaving and hid behind the tree. Slowly moving forward, Du Qi heard someone say passionately from afar, "With the new leader's passing, we should unite and have a place in the martial arts world. But you don't want to advance, instead, you want to make things difficult for your own brothers. What is the meaning of this? "

At this time, Du Qi had already approached those people. He saw that there were more than a hundred people on the ground in front of them. The two teams had more than thirty people on each side, and another forty people were gathered outside of them, like a group of onlookers.

The person who had spoken earlier was a scholar who seemed to be in dire straits. He was in the middle of the two teams and was obviously the leader of the team.

Du Qi saw that the scholar was about thirty years old, and he had a strange look on his face. He gave people a feeling of admiration, even though he was wearing a scholarly robe. At this moment, there was a complicated expression on his face. He was furious and regretful. He was both excited and sad. He wanted to make a decision, but at the same time, he seemed helpless and at a loss. For a moment, Du Qi could not put on the expression of a scholar. He could not understand the scholar's current state of mind.

The leader of the other team was a tall and sturdy man who looked to be in his mid-thirties. His expression was calm and indifferent. As soon as the scholar finished speaking, he sneered and said, "You won't let your brothers take revenge for the gang leader, and you won't allow everyone to elect a new gang leader. If this continues, won't our Morality Gang be digging our own grave? You still have the nerve to accuse us of not wanting to advance? What are your intentions in doing this?"

Du Qi had already noticed that some of these people were experts from the Morality Gang, and they were from three different groups. He thought that it was because of the instigation of these experts from the Morality Gang that there would be internal strife in this gang. Who would have thought that there would be internal strife in the Morality Gang?

Du Qi already knew that as long as Dugu Wendao fell, the situation in the Morality Gang would be bad. Naturally, he could predict the internal strife in the Morality Gang, but he didn't expect it to happen at the right time.

While pondering, Du Qi heard the scholar talk and said, "Our Morality Gang was created to promote righteousness, but what about Dugu Wendao's behavior? There was no need for me to say anything, the brothers also had an idea in their hearts. Now, our Morality Gang's reputation has been tarnished, and the righteous cultivators of the Pugilistic World feel a chill in their hearts. If we don't know how to appreciate the bigger picture, how can we bear it? You, Xie Dingtian, thank you for being a kind man. You won't let your brothers get into trouble for your own personal gain. You will make Morality Gang fall into eternal damnation, won't you?"

The burly man, Xie Dingtian, also said in a casual manner, "If you don't want to take revenge for the Sect Master, it will be unjust! If you don't elect a new Sect Master, it will be difficult for the Morality Gang to gain a foothold in the Pugilistic World. This is the path of destruction! You don't care about the moral principles of the pugilistic world, don't care about the feelings of our brothers, and stop us from avenging the leader and elect a new leader for no reason. This could be said to be unjust and disloyal. This was what you, Kong Fangquan, meant by 'knowing the big picture and not having selfish desires'? Today, no matter what, we must elect a new leader, and then discuss the matter of avenging Sect Master Dugu! "

Xie Dingtian's words immediately won the approval of the people behind him, and they all echoed and clamored endlessly.

Du Qi was still secretly guessing who that Elementary Scholar was, and what kind of prestige and prestige he had in the Morality Gang. There were actually so many people who supported him and Xie Dingtian. It turned out that he was the military advisor of the Morality Gang, the 'Scholar of Ten Directions' Kong Fangquan. No wonder, Du Qi couldn't help but feel relieved.

When the crowd calmed down, Kong Fangquan said with a pained and helpless tone, "Since Hall Master Xie is so insistent, I can't just stop him. I wonder who does Hall Master Xie think is qualified to be the Sect Master of Morality Gang? Or does Hall Master Xie himself have such intentions? No matter what, don't mention the matter of avenging Sect Master Dugu!"

Seeing Kong Fangquan finally giving in, Xie Dingtian's tone also eased up a lot. He said, "I proposed to elect a new leader, not for my own personal interests, and not for deliberately making things difficult for you. I am thinking about the feelings of my brothers and the future of my gang! I do not show my power of virtue, and I admit that I cannot be the leader. If the military advisor could call for help, Xie Dingtian would definitely follow his orders. As for whether or not he would take revenge for Sect Master Dugu... When the time comes, it will still be up to the military advisor to decide!"

Xie Dingtian's words won the unanimous agreement of the people behind him. The people behind Kong Fangquan were even more pleasantly surprised. They all asked Kong Fangquan to take over the position of Sect Master. All of a sudden, the tense atmosphere was relieved. It became warm and harmonious.

As if he did not expect Xie Dingtian to actually push him to be the Sect Master, Kong Fangquan could not help but be stunned when he heard this. He knew that Xie Dingtian's words were not a joke, nor were they sarcastic or provocative. Instead, they were sincere.

Kong Fangquan was only slightly stunned. He hurriedly stopped the people who were talking and cheering. He cupped his fists and bowed to everyone present. "Whether it is practicing martial arts or handling the affairs of the gang, I have never slacked. Sometimes, although I admit that I am not ordinary, I know that I am not the leader's talent. I would never dare to comply with Hall Master Xie's suggestion! "

Xie Dingtian said, "If the Military Advisor does not become the Sect Leader, who else is qualified and capable to be the Sect Leader? Therefore, for the sake of our Morality Gang, the military advisor must not decline no matter what! "

Kong Fangquan said, "It was precisely because of the fact that there are no suitable candidates for the leader in the gang that I proposed to postpone the election of the leader. If I accept the Hall Leader's invitation, it is not a big deal for me to lose face. It's hard to guarantee that the reputation of our Morality Gang will be big. Therefore, I have no choice but to disappoint Xie Tang and all my brothers' good intentions. Can we discuss the election of the Sect Master on another day? "

Xie Dingtian insisted, "Since it has come to this, why should we wait for another day? Advisor, please do not decline and take the position of Sect Leader as soon as possible. Our Morality Gang still has a chance to live, only then can we have a place in the martial arts world!" As he spoke, Xie Dingtian looked at the crowd and continued, "Hall Master Ruan, say something!"

As if he knew that he could not convince Xie Dingtian, Kong Fangquan helplessly looked at the crowd and asked, "Hall Master Ruan, what do you think about this matter?"

A strong man in his forties said as if it had nothing to do with him, "The military advisor is a highly respected person. He is above ten million people under one person. Now that he is in the position of the leader, why should he refuse? Why should I say so? " After a slight pause, the man continued," However, if the military advisor has a reason to make all of us submit... We will naturally follow the advisor's will! "

Seeing that everyone agreed with Clan Leader Ruan's words, Kong Fangquan could not help but feel secretly delighted. He said cautiously, "Although some of the actions of the former Sect Leader Dugu Wendao are a little extreme, his martial arts skills are incomparable after all. Because of this, our Morality Gang is able to gain a foothold in the pugilistic world. Therefore, I think... The new Sect Master not only has to have a high moral character, but also has to have a very high martial arts. At least, he can't be weaker than Sect Master Dugu. Only by doing so can the Morality Gang develop and become stronger. Only then can we not go against the orders of our sect and raise our righteousness. What do you think, Hall Master Xie, Hall Master Ruan, and all the brothers think?"
