Inside the side hall, the atmosphere was solemn.
Xu Yingyi's sonorous and powerful words aroused the passion and sense of honor of the monks present.
Although everyone is currently in Western Heaven Buddhist Domain, and the opponent is the powerful Western Regions Buddhist sect, when it comes to the honor of the sect, no monk is willing to bow his head.
"Well said!"
"Yes, we will never tolerate it!"
"Fight with the monk!"
"Senior Brother Xu, just tell us what to do!"
"Yes!"
Practitioners spoke out one after another to express their support for Xu Yingyi.
"Senior Brother Xu."
At this time, Yan Xixi of the Tianqin Sect asked, "You have served Western Regions on behalf of the Canglan Sect many times. Have you encountered similar things before?"
Everyone suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at Xu Yingyi.
Xu Yingyi frowned, then shook his head. "No."
In Xu Yingyi's memory, it has never happened before that Buddhist Sect showed power to them, the delegates attending the ceremony.
It has never appeared before at all.
Although the Daoist sect and Buddhist Sect have always been at odds, the former is strong and the latter is weak. No matter how weak the strength of the representatives attending the ceremony is, they still represent many sects and sects, and Buddhist Sect cannot easily offend them.
Therefore, when Xu Yingyi came to Western Regions, he received courtesy that was completely in line with his status.
After being reminded by Yan Xixi, Xu Yingyi suddenly realized - this thing doesn't smell right!
What happened in the square earlier, was it the intention of the upper management of Western Regions Buddhist sect, or was it just the dirty work of Xuan Yuan Temple on its own initiative?
Xu Yingyi knows that Western Regions Buddhist sect is not monolithic, and there are fierce internal struggles.
He couldn't help but fell into thought.
But Xu Yingyi quickly came to his senses, waved his hand and said, "No matter what happened in the past, the top priority is how to deal with it now. My suggestion is to elect a chief first so that everyone can advance and retreat together!"
The representatives of Daoist sects who entered Western Heaven Buddhist Domain in the same batch to watch the ceremony, that is, there are currently a total of 176 monks in this side hall, representing Mountain Sea Realm 176 large and small immortal sects.
Although all monks are at the lowest level Purple Mansion, a group without a leader is like a mess. Once a special situation occurs, it will be difficult to work together.
Therefore, it is necessary to elect a chief who everyone believes in.
The chief is not the leader, but a representative among representatives, equivalent to the role of leader.
There is no power to give orders.
Everyone was convinced of Xu Yingyi's proposal and expressed their agreement one after another.
Many people looked at Xu Yingyi.
It feels like this position belongs to him.
However, what people did not expect was that Xu Yingyi said, "For this chief representative, I recommend Wang Chen, fellow Daoist from the West Sea Sect, to be West Sea Sect. West Sea Sect is Mountain Sea Realm's foremost immortal sect. His prestige is unrivaled. He must be the chief representative!"
Now even Wang Chen was surprised.
Everyone thought that Xu Yingyi would recommend himself and get what he wanted.
After all, since most of the monks are strangers to each other, Xu Yingyi, who is good at communication, is their best choice.
But Xu Yingyi obviously had other ideas. "Who agrees and who opposes?"
Cut the mess with a sharp knife!
Wang Chen was about to speak when he suddenly heard a message from Xu Yingyi: "Junior Brother Wang, I recommend you to be the chief sincerely. Please don't refuse."
Wang Chen pondered for a moment and swallowed the words of rejection.
He had no idea about this chief representative and even found it troublesome.
I feel that Xu Yingyi is very suitable.
However, Xu Yingyi's attitude is extremely sincere, not hypocritical to retreat in order to advance, and the reasons are very sufficient.
Among all the monk representatives, Wang Chen's cultivation level is not the highest.
But the sect he represents is the No. 1 Immortal Sect of the Mountain Sea Realm.
Then Wang Chen is not just himself.
If he firmly refuses, it will easily leave the impression that he is afraid to take on big responsibilities, which will hurt not only his own image, but also the reputation of the West Sea Sect.
If this matter spreads, not to mention West Sea Sect's reaction, Wang Chen's master Changhe True Person will also be disgraced!
"Agree!"
"I agree too!"
"Since he is West Sea Sect's senior brother, then there is no problem."
"I support it."
The other monks obviously had no idea of fighting for power, nor did they think that the chief representative was worthy of speaking out against him, so they all spoke in favor of Xu Yingyi's proposal.
Wang Chen's chief position has been decided just like this!
The dust settled in the blink of an eye.
Wang Chen's thoughts turned and he immediately stood up and said, "Since you fellow Daoists are showing love to you, then Wang will shamelessly take the position of chief. We will all help each other and advance and retreat together!"
Everyone said in unison, "Goodness!"
Wang Chen flicked out a wisp of wind from his finger and hit a bronze bell dozens of steps away.
Dang~
This copper bell was hung on the bell frame and suddenly emitted a clear ringing sound.
After a while, Xuan Yuan Temple zhike Zhitong hurried to the side hall and asked with a smile, "What are your orders, superiors?"
He has a fat head, big ears, and a round body. His smile looks like Maitreya Buddha, giving people a friendly and friendly feeling.
Wang Chen said calmly, "Master Zhitong, since your temple does not welcome us, we plan to go back to our respective homes, so as not to hate each other and affect Spirit Mountain Dharma Assembly."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.
Zhitong never expected that Wang Chen and others would give up watching the ceremony and prepare to go home.
The other monks did not expect Wang Chen to make such a decision.
But when everyone thinks about it carefully, they feel proud and proud!
Show off your power?
The Daoist Master no longer serves you!
No one raised a voice to object, everyone stared at Zhitong with mocking and joking eyes.
Look how this monk responds!
Zhitong had beads of sweat on his forehead. Realizing that the situation was out of control, he quickly said with a grimace, "Senior cultivators, please don't joke with me. I can't bear this!"
"We're not kidding."
Wang Chen said, "If you can't afford it, then find someone who can."
So far, Xuan Yuan Temple has only one Zhike who has come out to receive representatives from these sects.
It is unbearable, Wang Chen is ready to completely fall out!
However, while his attitude was tough, Zhitong was obviously softer. "Fellow Daoist, may I ask your name?"
The monk's tone was cautiously flattering.
"West Sea Sect, Wang Chen!"
As soon as Wang Chen finished speaking, Xu Yingyi continued, "He is also the chief representative recommended by us!"
"His words speak for all of us!"
Chief representative!
Zhitong subconsciously took a step back and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoists, please be patient. There must be a misunderstanding. The young monk will immediately ask the abbot of this temple to come over!"
He hurriedly exited the side hall, staggering and almost falling.
The monks looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.
