Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 1182: Chapter 1183: Successor

Lin Chen nursed himself for three more days, feeling that the Spiritual Medicine he consumed was worth millions, and Yu Feifei took meticulous care of him.

During this time, many people came to visit Lin Chen, including some elders of the sect.

From their gazes, Lin Chen sensed something unusual.

They seemed to have great respect for him, with a hint of flattery.

After three days, Lin Chen’s body finally fully recovered, and it was the day of the sect meeting held every month.

”Lin Chen, you need to attend today’s sect meeting as well, my father has an important announcement to make,” Yu Feifei said.

”What’s it about? Is he going to marry you off to me?” Lin Chen joked.

”Hmph, you’re dreaming,” Yu Feifei rolled her eyes at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen followed Yu Feifei into the grand hall of the medicine sect, where the Hall Masters of the Heaven, Earth, and Virtue Halls, along with the elders, were all gathered today.

Yao Hui stood behind Zhou Fei, looking at him with a cold gaze.

When Lin Chen walked in, Yu Yuntian’s face showed a hint of a smile, and he nodded at him.

The sect meeting began, and Yu Yuntian looked around and said, ”Everyone, today there is an important decision to announce at this sect meeting. I have decided to step down as Sect Master, and the candidates to succeed as Sect Master have been decided after discussions among the elder council. They are Yao Hui, Lin Chen, and Yu Feifei.”

Upon hearing Yu Yuntian’s words, there was an uproar around. Yao Hui and Yu Feifei were not surprised as they had long been popular candidates, but Lin Chen’s inclusion surprised many.

Yu Yuntian smiled and said, ”Everyone is already familiar with Yao Hui and Feifei, but although Lin Chen has just joined the sect, his strength is formidable, his character upright, and he has done a lot for our sect. Thus, he is specially recommended as a candidate for the sect master of the medicine sect.”

Hearing that Lin Chen was also a candidate for sect master, Yao Hui’s face turned icy.

The position of sect master was supposed to be firmly his, but now there was a strong contender, making him very displeased.

Zhou Fei coolly said, ”Sect Master, although Lin Chen is strong, he has been in the sect for too short a time, and his character is questionable. How can he be a candidate for sect master of the medicine sect?”

”Zhou Fei, stop talking nonsense. Where is Lin Chen’s character questionable?” Wang Chen angrily retorted.

”Questionable behavior? Yao Hui said that when the Tianyuan crystal stone was supposed to be preserved by Lin Chen, this guy embezzled it. How can someone so selfish be a candidate for sect master?” Zhou Fei snorted coldly.

Hearing Zhou Fei’s words, the crowd burst into discussion.

This time, their task was to retrieve the Tianyuan crystal stone, but in the end, the crystal stone ended up with Lin Chen. Indeed, this was hard to explain.

”Lin Chen, do you have anything to say?” Zhou Fei stared at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen calmly said, ”No words to say, the crystal stone was indeed absorbed by me.”

Hearing Lin Chen’s words, Zhou Fei sneered, ”Everyone has seen it. How can we let someone who pockets sect property become the master of a sect? With his mentality, this sect might as well become his family property.”

”Yes, right, we can’t let this Lin Chen become the sect master.”

”Exactly, such a person is not worthy of the sect master position.”

Instantly, many people chimed in agreement.

Witnessing this situation, Yu Yuntian frowned slightly and said calmly, ”Wei Lao, it seems it’s time for you to speak up.”

At this moment, an elderly figure appeared in front of everyone.

Wei Lao, an elder for three generations of the sect, known for his integrity, although he only managed Bai Cao Tang and swept the grounds, his status in the sect was very prestigious.

”This time, under the order of the sect, I’ve been secretly observing these young ones. Their performances have all been recorded by me, and I can show you the video. Whether Lin Chen is qualified to be a candidate for sect master, you can all see clearly,” Wei Lao said calmly.

Hearing Lin Chen’s words, Yao Hui’s previously smug face changed instantly.

He knew better than anyone about his own performance this time, and if it were shown, it would surely be a disgrace.

Lin Chen was also secretly surprised, realizing Wei Lao had been following them all along, yet he hadn’t noticed at all.

Could he possibly possess an invisibility ability just like me?

The video displayed the entire mission process of the group on the big screen without missing any details.

Seeing Lin Chen’s performance, everyone nodded in approval, especially when Lin Chen stood alone against more than a dozen disciples from the Dark Realm to save Yu Feifei. He absorbed the Tianyuan crystal stone just to prevent the other party from getting it, a truly brave, wise, and righteous act.

In contrast, Yao Hui seemed like a selfish and petty person, miles behind Lin Chen in terms of intelligence, martial skills, and character.

”Hall Master Zhou, do you have anything else to say?” Yu Yuntian looked at Zhou Fei and asked calmly.

Zhou Fei was rendered speechless, glaring fiercely at Yao Hui.

This disciple was utterly disappointing; even he felt ashamed of such a performance.

”Alright, since there are no more objections, this decision is finalized. From now on, the three disciples can enter the Tian Tower to study the Qihuang Neijing,” Yu Yuntian announced with a smile.

”Hmph, the position of sect master depends on who can ultimately comprehend the Qihuang Neijing, so whoever becomes sect master is still undetermined.” Yao Hui glared at Lin Chen and said.

Lin Chen smiled faintly, ”I have a feeling that if you can comprehend the Qihuang Neijing, pigs could climb trees.”

”You!” Yao Hui was furious, almost exploding with rage from Lin Chen’s insult.

Lin Chen, Yu Feifei, and Yao Hui followed Yu Yuntian to the foot of a Tian Tower.

This Tian Tower was about a hundred meters tall, resembling a small mountain peak, exuding an ancient aura from within the stone tower.

The three looked at the Tian Tower, feeling very excited.

On the mountains not far away, figures flashed by, all wanting to see who would create a miracle this time.

”Alright, go in and see which of you has the fortune to comprehend it!” Yu Yuntian said solemnly.

”Yes, Sect Master!” Lin Chen and the other two saluted Yu Yuntian and stepped into Tian Tower.

Watching the three enter, Yu Yuntian took a deep breath. Many of the elites from the medicine sect had entered this Tian Tower, but few had truly comprehended it. He hoped for a surprise this time.

”With Yao Hui’s aptitude, it is difficult to comprehend, but Lin Chen and Yu Feifei are quite possible,” Wei Lao commented.

”Wei Lao, it seems you have high hopes for Lin Chen!” laughed Yu Yuntian.

”I also have high hopes for your Feifei, but as you’ve said, under no circumstances would you let Feifei become the Sect Master,” Wei Lao laughed.

”Yes, this time she entered the tower just to see if she has the fortune to comprehend the Qihuang Neijing. As for the position of Sect Master, it’s not suitable for her due to her temperament,” Yu Yuntian shook his head.

”Looks like you’ve already chosen a candidate for succession?” Wei Lao laughed.

Yu Yuntian nodded, ”Lin Chen, I truly hope you won’t disappoint me.”
