"Yu Yuan!"

Yu Yuan paused slightly, then stepped forward to bow and said respectfully, "Your disciple is here."

Tongtian, the Sect Hierarch said, "From today on, you are the Vice Sect Hierarch of Jie Sect. All matters of the sect will be decided by you!"

Jie Sect Immortals: ∑(O_O;),(ŐдŐ๑),(っ°Д°;)っ,(⊙ˍ⊙)

The immortals in the hall were dumbfounded, their eyes bulging and mouths agape unconsciously, unable to believe that Tongtian, the Sect Hierarch, would make such a decision.

Not only them, but even Yu Yuan, the person concerned, was shocked inside and out by this bombshell news.

Would such a big decision be announced without even asking?

Are you afraid that I won't agree, or what?

To be honest, from the beginning to the end, he was not for the sake of Jie Sect, but for the few people within the sect that he could not let go of.

He looked at his master, Golden Spirit Saint Mother, only to catch her eye filled with expectation looking back at him.

Not just her, Duobao Daoist, Zhao Gongming, and Yun Xiao were also looking at him with the same gaze.

Yu Yuan suddenly came to a realization.

This was not a spur-of-the-moment decision by Tongtian, but something he had discussed with all the eight senior disciples.

At this moment, a Jie Sect Immortal who usually was quiet and rarely spoke, not sure who had egged him on, swallowed his saliva and stammered, "Sect Hierarch, this... isn't this inappropriate? Yu Yuan... he's only a Third Generation Disciple, how could he take the position of Vice Sect Hierarch?"

Tongtian, the Sect Hierarch, glanced at him without saying anything.

It was Duobao Daoist who spoke up first: "What, you have an objection?"

"No... no!"

The Jie Sect Immortal said hesitantly, "I just think that previously there has never been a Vice Hierarch... no, I mean, even if there should be a Vice Hierarch, it ought to be you, the eldest brother, who should be it."

"Exactly!"

Some Jie Sect Immortals nodded in agreement.

This was also the sentiment of most Jie Sect disciples.

In fact, before this, there was no position of Vice Sect Hierarch in Jie Sect. Therefore, Duobao Daoist, as the foremost disciple of Jie Sect, had been essentially fulfilling the duties of a Vice Sect Hierarch.

It was just that his interests did not lie in this, and he would abandon his duties every three days.

Now, hearing someone question it, Duobao Daoist didn't hesitate to stand up and say, "The reason why the master appointed Yu Yuan to the place of the Vice Sect Hierarch is naturally because he is more suitable than me!"

He looked around at the Jie Sect Immortals and said gravely, "The abilities and contributions of our fellow Yu Yuan are surely well witnessed by everyone here... whether it was during the treasure hunt in Eastern Emperor Heaven or the treaty among the Three Sects, it was him who turned the tide all by himself, securing an advantage for our Jie Sect.

I believe no one is more suited to the position of Vice Sect Hierarch than him!"

Even he said so, and the immortals in the hall, whatever their intentions, immediately quieted down.

At this point, Tongtian, the Sect Hierarch spoke again: "Yu Yuan, you are now the Vice Sect Hierarch. How Virochana Immortal and the others should be dealt with, I will leave that to your decision."

Well, wait a minute, they are waiting for me to decide!

Yu Yuan looked at Virochana Immortal, whose complexion was pale and who had eyes full of despair, as if he had already foreseen his own fate. He originally wanted to say just kill him and get it over with, but then he thought of the vanished Demon Emperor Hall.

After a brief pondering, he still said sternly, "Virochana Immortal attempted to harm his fellow disciples and should be put to death on the spot, but the Hierarch is merciful and benevolent, unwilling to take his life. Therefore, he is expelled from Jie Sect, to be suppressed in the East Sea Sea Eye, and he must not emerge until the Infinite Tribulations!"

Virochana Immortal's face shifted through several expressions.

From initial despair, to the surprise thought of a reprieve, and then falling back into endless despair.

Good news: he won't have to die.

Bad news: It might be better if he did!

Being suppressed in the East Sea Sea Eye until the Infinite Tribulations... this meant, unless by some fluke, he would taste eternal loneliness!

"Furthermore... Virochana Immortal, Bilan Immortal, Huqing Immortal, and others who conspired with him can't escape their responsibility, all will be expelled from Jie Sect and suppressed under Golden Turtle Island for ten thousand years!"

Yu Yuan looked around at the Jie Sect Immortals and spoke gravely, "I hope all fellow disciples will take this as a cautionary tale!"
