Chapter 824
In the Liuyin Hall, everyone worshipped the ancestor and asked him to witness.
Deputy head Wu Changlin said loudly:
"In this grand ceremony, the elders proposed to depose Ji Yue!"
"Who is in favor? Who is against?"
As soon as this was said, it was immediately echoed by everyone.
Elder Qin shouted:
"Ji Yue has been doing evil, killing and injuring fellow disciples at will, and has completely disregarded the laws of the sect. He is tantamount to rebellion and should be deposed and expelled from the mountain gate!"
He regarded Qin Wuyang as his lifeblood. Whoever touched the only hope of the Qin family would be his enemy.
Chen Ran of Qianji Hall also echoed:
"All halls are equal, there is no difference between big and small. Why does Shenfeng Hall trample on us and act wildly?"
"Who gave Jiyue the power to be so tyrannical?"
Feng Changmei of Bingma Hall also shook his head:
"With Jiyue here, we can't sleep well. The enemy hasn't even come yet, and the corpse-driving sect will be dispersed by her!"
Everyone spoke one after another, and the crowd was excited.
There were also victims such as Zhongshan and Qin Wuyang who accused Jiyue of brutality.
For a time, Jiyue was almost condemned by thousands of people and became the public enemy of the whole sect.
In the corner, Baiyu secretly said in his heart that it was not good.
He looked around and there was no other help.
Jiyue was in seclusion, Ruyan was commanding the Taoist soldiers on the front line, and only Baiyu was present.
His brain was working rapidly, thinking about countermeasures.
At this time, the deputy head Wu Changlin said loudly:
"Since everyone agrees, then let's start--"
"I object!"
But Bai Yu stood up suddenly.
At this time, it would be too late if he didn't interrupt.
Wu Changlin frowned and said:
"So you are Ji Yue's eldest disciple, tell me your reasons."
Bai Yu was not afraid of the stage, facing the eyes of everyone, and said loudly:
"Although my master Ji Yue acts rudely, she has no selfish motives, and her starting point is all for the great plan of the sect."
"She has been investigating traitors and spies internally, and ambushing Feihu Mountain and Luosha Hall externally, and her merits are outstanding."
"If we expel her, I'm afraid we won't be able to convince everyone."
As soon as he said this, the elders suddenly changed color.
Elder Qin sneered:
"What a joke, you can do whatever you want under the pretext of doing it for the sake of the sect?"
"Who here has not made contributions to the sect? I have guarded the Cold Pond Netherworld for the sect for 20,000 years. Have I ever been as arrogant as Ji Yue?"
Chen Ran of Qianji Hall also refuted:
"Like Ji Yue, who always leads troops to encircle and suppress fellow disciples and arrests people at all costs, many halls in the sect can no longer operate."
"If a hall is shut down, how huge will the loss be every day? Who will bear the responsibility?"
The elders were surprisingly unanimous.
Your starting point is good, but don't start yet.
Everyone says it's for the sect, who knows if you are really doing it for the sect, or using it to usurp power?
Even if you are really doing it for the sect, you should follow the system instead of letting Ji Yue do whatever he wants.
You only need to lead the Taoist soldiers in Shenfeng Hall. According to the system, you have no power to override others.
Everyone was talking at the same time, and their spit was about to drown Bai Yu.
Bai Yu took a deep breath and used the "knowing friend" rule:
"All elders and uncles, listen to me again."
"With the battle against Feihu Mountain approaching, changing the generals at the last minute is a way to cause chaos!"
"What's more, who in the field can beat my master Ji Yue in combat power? If she is replaced, who will stop the invasion of Feihu Mountain?"
As soon as he finished speaking, another person stepped out, and it was his second senior brother Tu Qianjun.
"Junior Brother Bai is right. Even if Senior Uncle Ji Yue is wrong, she is indispensable on the battlefield now."
"Without Senior Uncle Ji Yue, others can't suppress the arrogant soldiers of Shenfeng Hall, nor can they stop Feihu Mountain."
"Changing the generals at the last minute, I'm afraid my corpse-driving sect will be in danger of destruction."
He was used to fighting on the front battlefield, and he knew how critical the situation was now.
Elder Qin's face turned cold:
"What nonsense! The Corpse Driving Sect has been fighting with Feihu Mountain for tens of thousands of years. Without Jiyue, will the sect be destroyed?"
"Deputy Sect Leader Wu is also a late earth immortal. He can take over the Shenfeng Hall and fight against Feihu Mountain."
Chen Ran also said:
"In the past six months, Feihu Mountain has killed more people than Jiyue."
"I think if Jiyue continues to make trouble, the Corpse Driving Sect will really be destroyed!"
Deputy Sect Leader Wu Changlin stared at Bai Yu, smiling:
"Bai Yu, you have always been respectful and friendly. I thought you and Jiyue were not the same kind."
"I didn't expect that she would do anything wrong and you didn't stop her!"
Bai Yu was speechless.
My master has always been open-minded to accept advice. Those who criticize me to my face will be executed; those who write to me to advise me will be sentenced to death; those who slander me behind my back will be killed without mercy.
How could anyone stop her from making a decision?
Wu Changlin shouted:
"Bai Yu, Bai Yu, you still want to protect your tyrant master until now.""I think it's time for you to step down and go into seclusion in Xiannong Hall to reflect on yourself."
Bai Yu reacted immediately.
Wu Changlin clearly wanted to expand his power by impeaching Ji Yue.
As the deputy head, he has never had much power, and only led a remote Tianbao Hall.
He is suppressed by the head of the sect on weekdays.
If he takes over Shenfeng Hall and Xiannong Hall today, with the support of other elders, he will be able to take control of the power and suppress the head of the sect.
The situation of the corpse-driving sect is critical, and this group of people still have the mind to fight for power and profit.
At this moment, just like the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Later Jin Dynasty has entered the pass, and a group of elite civil servants in the court are still holding back due to party disputes.
Bai Yu almost laughed out of anger:
"Deputy Sect Leader Wu, do you think it's so easy to get a seat in Shenfeng Hall?"
"My Master Jiyue and Uncle Ruyan dared to face Yan Baohu head-on. Could Deputy Sect Leader Wu do it?"
Wu Changlin's eyes widened:
"How dare you? Is that how you talk to your uncle?"
"I think you are just like your bastard master. You have no respect for your elders and are causing trouble for the sect."
"The Jiyue lineage is full of bastards. They should be expelled together."
At this time, Lu Jing of Danyuan Hall, who had been silent all the time, spoke:
"Bai Yu is different from Jiyue. He has always been kind and has excellent alchemy talent."
"He is half of my apprentice. If Xiannong Hall can't accommodate him, he can take over my Danyuan Hall. I am happy to have some free time."
Lu Jing and Jiyue have a big grudge, but he didn't add insult to injury before.
Now that he sees Bai Yu in danger, he comes out to defend him.
Bai Yu was filled with emotion and bowed to Lu Jing.
Seeing Lu Jing speak, Wu Changlin cleared his throat and said:
"Let's not talk too much. Let's vote on whether to depose and expel Ji Yue, the scourge."
The vast majority of elders, hall masters and core disciples in the field were almost eager to express their approval.
There were few opponents. In addition to Bai Yu, there were only the head master and his disciples, Lu Jing and Tu Qianjun.
Wu Changlin said loudly:
"There are 74 people in the field, 68 in favor, and 6 against, which is far more than 70%. The grand ceremony has been passed."
He took out the edict that had been prepared long ago and handed it to the head master Hua Zhenzi. There was a list of names left by the elders in advance on it:
"Brother Hua Zhen, with such a consensus, you won't go against the trend, right?"
Hua Zhenzi sighed.
The last leader chose him, which meant that he was destined to be weak and unable to suppress everyone alone.
Now that Ji Yue had angered everyone, he could no longer forcibly protect her.
In desperation, he had to use the leader's seal.
Wu Changlin was pleased with himself and urged the imperial edict.
The imperial edict turned into a golden light and flew into the air, about to announce it to the whole sect.
At this moment, a figure rushed over, grabbed the imperial edict and tore it to pieces.
