Xuandu's Troubles
"Junior Brother, you're here."
The moment Xuandu saw Li Yun, his spirits lifted. He rose to his feet and walked forward.
At the same time, Shi Yi and the others in the hall all turned to look.
Once they saw Li Yun, they calmed down as well and bowed. "Greetings, martial uncle Li Yun!"
"Greetings, Martial Uncle Li Yun!"
"..."
Li Yun merely nodded at them.
Then, he looked at Xuandu. "Senior Brother, are you planning to hold a competition among the disciples?"
Xuandu gave a bitter smile at that.
A competition.
He truly had never considered it.
But the allure of the Great Emperor positions was simply too immense.
Not only were the Direct Disciples eager to make a move, even the Registered Disciples and the rest were eyeing them like tigers watching prey.
Though no one had truly come to blows, the taut, drawn-sword atmosphere still left him helpless.
After all, Xuandu was different from Li Yun.
Although he cultivated the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique, the information he possessed was clearly different as well.
In particular, as Laozi's Direct Disciple, he had learned at least some of Laozi's ways and state of mind of non-action.
Because of this, with so many disciples volunteering themselves, he did not know how to choose.
Thinking of this, Xuandu immediately said, "Junior Brother, you jest."
"I told them about the Great Emperor positions, and all the disciples have taken an interest in them. Now I simply find it difficult to choose!"
Li Yun nodded upon hearing this.
Once he understood Xuandu's thoughts, he no longer hesitated. Looking at Shi Yi and the others in the hall, he said, "This matter is simple."
"Since all of you wish to become one of the Five Emperors, then go out together!"
"Go out?"
