Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1347: Chapter 1346: The Final Meeting

The Sect Master personally convened a meeting, and all the high-level members of the Phoenix Sect were present, without exception.

Because many of the high-level members who had been promoted in the past ten years had never seen Su Han in person, this was the first time Su Han had truly appeared in ten years since he annihilated the Five Great Super Sects. Not for anything else, at the very least, they wanted to pay homage to this long-renowned man.

Early in the morning, the main hall of the Phoenix Sect’s headquarters was filled with people.

There were thousands of chairs, yet none were empty, and even many people were standing there.

They were also high-level members, but compared to those who were seated, there was some disparity.

”Did the Sect Master convene this meeting for something important?”

”I don’t know, but this is the Sect Master’s first real appearance in ten years, so I think this meeting won’t be simple.”

”Ha, I’ve never seen the Sect Master in person.”

”I’ve only seen the Sect Master once, and that was before the Five Great Super Sects were annihilated. At that time, although the Sect Master didn’t have the status and position he has now, he was still astonishingly impressive.”

The numerous high-level members of the Phoenix Sect whispered among themselves, engaging in conversation.

Almost everyone present was at the Dragon Emperor Realm, and under the Dragon Emperor, even those at the Peak Pseudo-Emperor Realm had to stand aside.

Liuyun and others were seated closest to Su Han. They were the true veterans of the Phoenix Sect, having followed Su Han through countless trials to reach this point. There were countless times when they almost fell. Saying it wasn’t easy is putting it mildly.

...

As time passed, Su Han’s figure finally appeared in everyone’s sight.

Still dressed in white, with a gentle smile on his handsome face, by his side were two extraordinarily beautiful women, none other than Xiao Yuhui and Xiao Yuran.

Behind them were Su Qing and Su Yao.

”We pay our respects to the Sect Master, the Sect Master’s Wife, and the two Young Sect Masters!”

Seeing Su Han appear, all the high-level members of the Phoenix Sect immediately stood up, putting away their previous casual demeanor, and respectfully bowed.

”Rise, all of you.”

Su Han nodded with a smile and spoke.

”Yes.”

Everyone responded in unison, straightening up, and with Su Han’s gesture, they each returned to their seats.

Countless eyes were focused on Su Han at this moment, many of whom were seeing Su Han for the first time, with expressions of excitement and trembling bodies.

Even though they were almost all at the Dragon Emperor Realm, and at the lowest, the Pseudo-Emperor Realm, they still couldn’t suppress their excitement at this moment.

This was the legendary man!

In decades, he had risen from a small county town in a corner to stand at the peak of the Dragon Martial Continent.

In decades, he had led a sect of merely a few dozen people to dominate the Dragon Martial Continent.

In decades, he had led the Phoenix Sect to slay endless Extraterritorial Demons, ushering in a new era for the Dragon Martial Continent.

Everything was because of this man!

Almost everything about Su Han was legendary, something many among them could never achieve.

This is a god!

Their gaze toward Su Han was akin to looking at a divine spirit, truly no different.

Even those geniuses from the Starry Sky would pale in comparison before this man.

”Sect Master, here is the list of those present today. Please take a look.” Lian Yuze produced a Memory Crystal Stone and respectfully handed it to Su Han.

Su Han took it, his Divine Sense sweeping over it instantly, then setting the Memory Crystal Stone aside.

”I know that in the current operation of the Phoenix Sect, you are all very busy. It is gratifying to see that you have taken time out of your busy schedules to be here today,” Su Han said slowly.

”It’s our duty.”

Everyone below quickly lowered their heads and responded.

”Among you, some have joined the Phoenix Sect for a long time, following me through thick and thin to reach today.”

”Some joined the Phoenix Sect only after the Dragon Martial First Year began.”

”But to me, as long as you are part of the Phoenix Sect, it doesn’t matter if you’ve been here long or have just joined. It doesn’t matter if you’re at the Dragon Emperor Realm or Dragon Vein Realm. I will treat you equally.”

No one spoke, waiting quietly for Su Han’s next words.

”Those who came today are all high-level members of the Phoenix Sect. I have entrusted authority to you, and you should fulfill the responsibilities that match that authority. No matter where you are in the future, I hope you will remember that you are part of the Phoenix Sect, and that the Phoenix Sect’s current status was hard-won,” Su Han spoke again.

”Yes!”

Everyone immediately responded.

”Alright, now I will announce a few matters to be discussed at today’s meeting,” Su Han pondered for a moment, then continued, ”The first matter is that the Sect will soon be leaving the Phoenix Sect, leaving the Dragon Martial Continent, and heading to the Starry Sky.”

”What?!”

This first announcement greatly shocked those below.

Lian Yuze, Liuyun, and others displayed looks of loss. ℯ

They had already learned of this from Lian Yuze’s mouth. Now, with Su Han personally announcing it, it confirmed... Su Han was really about to leave.

To them, Su Han was more than the Sect Master; he was a friend willing to risk his life for them.

They were reluctant, truly reluctant.

And the other high-level members of the Phoenix Sect were momentarily a bit flustered.

The entire Dragon Martial Continent knew that Su Han was the soul of the Phoenix Sect, the spiritual pillar of the Phoenix Sect!

If he left, what would become of the Phoenix Sect?

”After my departure, First Elder Lian Yuze, and my father, Su Yunming, will assume the positions of Deputy Sect Master. Should there be matters they cannot decide, you may consult with them.”

As he spoke, Su Han waved his hand, and a token appeared.

This was the ’Deputy Sect Order.’

On Su Yunming’s side, Su Han had already given him one. This one was for Lian Yuze.

”Sect Master...”

Lian Yuze’s eyes became a bit red. He was willing to forgo this position rather than see Su Han leave.

But this was truly a matter beyond his control.

”Forgot what I told you?” Su Han said with a smile.

It was visible that there was a hint of sadness in that smile.

They were reluctant to see Su Han leave, but did that mean Su Han was willing to leave them?

No, Su Han wasn’t willing either.

But in the Starry Sky, there were countless people Su Han once knew, being hunted by the Starry Alliance, waiting for him to save them. How could Su Han possibly stay forever on the Dragon Martial Continent?

Saying that only the Starry Sky could improve his cultivation base was merely Su Han’s excuse.

If he could choose, Su Han would rather none of this had ever happened and would prefer to stay here safely, guarding the Dragon Martial Continent with Lian Yuze, Liuyun, and others.

”Take it,” Su Han said.

”Alright.”

Lian Yuze took a deep breath, accepting the Deputy Sect Master token. As he sat back down on his chair, a tear rolled down from the corner of his eye.
