When Xiao Xilou heard Wang Yue's voice, he had no choice but to stop chasing his son. He halted and said irritably, "Worthy son-in-law, this is such a major matter for the temple's leader. How could you let him fool around like this?"
He was actually a little worried. If his son went off to become the leader of Baiyun Temple, wouldn't that make his own sect seem thoroughly unappealing?
Wang Yue shook his head and calmly said, "Baiyun Temple has very few people. Qiushui can take the position of temple leader for a while and use it to test himself. It'll also prove whether he has what it takes to lead your sect. If he wants to return to the Huanhua Sword Sect and become its leader someday, he can simply pass the temple leader's position on to someone else."
Xiao Xilou could see that Wang Yue truly intended to give Xiao Qiushui the position of temple leader.
Xiao Qiushui saw that his father was tempted, but he shook his head firmly and said, "Father, Master, I want to become the Sect Leader. I don't want to be the temple leader!"
Hearing this, Xiao Xilou couldn't help grabbing his switch and chasing after him again. His son had no sense at all. Wang Yue had already given him an easy way out, yet Xiao Qiushui still hadn't taken it!
The room descended into chaos again!
Just then, several of Xiao Xilou's senior brothers hurried over with some news.
As it turned out, the Power Gang had found Pu Tianyi's corpse. A sword had been found inside it, bearing the character "Xiao," so the Power Gang demanded an explanation from the Xiao family.
Fortunately, Xiao Qiushui had evidence that Pu Tianyi had colluded with the enemy and betrayed his country.
