Chapter 9 - Successor Assembly
Succession to the General Assembly
Only after seeing Ling Xiao's powerful strength, coupled with Ma Da Yuan's comforting words, did everyone quiet down. They even opened up a path for Ling Xiao to walk through.
Walking to Qiao Feng's side, Ling Xiao cupped his hands and said: "Actually, I do not understand why you all made such a shocking decision."
"Looks like Great Hero Ling really wants to know as well. Since that's the case, let me explain." Qiao Feng coughed lightly, "Before, Sect Master had left behind a secret letter, which predicted that the Beggar Gangs would encounter many troubles in the future, and it means that the Beggar Gangs needs a Sect Master who is powerful enough to be their leader."
Everyone knows, that for I, Qiao Feng, to achieve such an achievement, I have to rely on the help of the Jianghu's many chivalrous warriors. But as the saying goes, there is still a chance to return the favor, when I received their help, I should repay the debt of gratitude.
"Furthermore, Great Hero Ling had previously said that he would help us and help us return to peace. Thus, we were prepared to pass this heavy burden on to him."
"At the same time, I want to thank sister-in-law Kang Min. If not for her suggestion, we would never have thought of it."
With that, Qiao Feng nodded towards Kang Min.
Kang Min felt the gazes from the surroundings, but she still trembled in nervousness. If not for Ling Xiao's reminder, she would have already been walking down a road of no return.
Seeing this scene, Ling Xiao couldn't help but slightly raise the corner of his mouth. As expected, it was as he had expected.
"So that's how it is. It's rare that Sect Master Qiao is willing to believe in me. It's just that Beggar Gangs is everyone's Beggar Gangs. I wonder if anyone else would agree to that." Ling Xiao laughed faintly.
Hearing this, Qiao Feng nodded: "Today's convention is precisely for great deity Ling's succession. All those who are able to attend today's convention are all the pillars supporting our Beggar Gangs, so they are all clear about the current situation our Beggar Gangs is facing."
As for the Beggar Gangs, it must not be without an owner. At the same time, I need someone strong enough to stand guard over the Beggar Gangs and intimidate others. Thus, I declare that from now on, the Great Hero Ling will officially take over the position of Beggar Gangs! "
As Qiao Feng's voice fell, everyone started to cheer. From their point of view, the question of whether to exchange them for the Sect Leader was not big. The most important thing was that another Ranker had joined the Beggar Gangs, giving them more confidence.
Sensing the cheers of joy on the stage, Qiao Feng and Ma Da Yuan looked at each other and laughed, because they too, were filled with confidence towards the future of Beggar Gangs.
Only Ling Xiao could feel the pressure on his shoulders, it was obvious that these people had placed their hopes on him.
When the voices on the stage became a little softer, Ling Xiao extended his hand to signal for everyone to quiet down, and said: "Everyone, I am grateful that Sect Leader Qiao gave me this chance, and thank everyone for your trust, I believe that the future of Beggar Gangs will be very bright."
As the sound of his voice faded, thunderous applause rumbled through the great hall.
"Although Sect Master Qiao has chosen me to assume the position of Sect Master, if I were to go out in the future, I will still need the help of the Deputy Sect Leader Ma's Cauldron to deal with matters within the sect." Ling Xiao looked at Ma Da Yuan and said with a smile.
"Haha, Sect Master Ling is too generous. As long as I can help you, I will naturally do my best." Ma Da Yuan shook his head.
"If Great Hero Ling is willing to agree, then I, Qiao Qiao, am relieved." Qiao Feng laughed.
