My Master Knows It All

”Very well.” Cao Zhen had no choice but to interrupt his teaching, got up, and flew towards the direction of the mountain gate.

Subsequently, the others, including the Extreme Formation Sect Leader, followed. After all, the people coming were the three strongest individuals in the Eastern Province. Even out of courtesy, since they were inside the Hundred Peaks Sect’s gates, they had to go greet them.

Meanwhile, Nie Jie, Li Ke, Ling Xi, and others from inside the Hundred Peaks also took flight to greet them.

As the gates of the Hundred Peaks Sect opened, the three persons, upon seeing one True Immortal Realm expert after another appear, with Cao Zhen in the middle, finally allowed a smile to break through the solemnity that these days had etched on their faces.

Cao Zhen cupped his hands towards the three and asked, ”I wasn’t aware of your decision to come and thus did not meet you outside. I hope you understand. Please, come inside.”

”Sect Leader Cao, your words are heavy.” The three Sword Lords quickly returned the courtesy and followed the people of the Hundred Peaks Sect into the main hall.

The previous structures of the Hundred Peaks Sect had all been destroyed, so this hall was newly constructed. With the short time available, Cao Zhen did not ask for the hall to be built overly sumptuous.

Not only the main hall but also other buildings lacked grandeur.

Though the Hundred Peaks Sect had not been wiped out, countless of their elders had perished at the hands of the Alien Race. They vowed to only restore their Hundred Peaks Sect to its full glory after avenging their seniors and expelling the entire Alien Race out of the Great Thousand World of the Human Clan.

For now, they would maintain the sect this way as a constant reminder that their vengeance is unfulfilled, to drive them to cultivate more fiercely!

In the main hall, once the disciples of the Hundred Peaks Sect served the Fragrant Tea, they quickly withdrew and closed the hall’s doors.

The Sword Lord glanced at the members of the Extreme Formation Sect, nodded slightly, and said, ”It’s just as well that the Extreme Formation Sect members are here. We have a request for the Hundred Peaks Sect Leader.”

The Extreme Formation Sect Leader, upon hearing this, showed no sign of surprise. If three True Immortal Realm beings were asking something of another in the same realm, he wouldn’t have believed it.

But since Sect Leader Cao was the reincarnation of a Daluo Golden Immortal, even if the three True Immortal Realm beings came to ask for guidance, he would see no issue.

Cao Zhen cupped his hands slightly and said, ”You are too kind. Whatever the matter is, please feel free to speak.”

The Sword Lord exchanged looks with the two other Golden Immortal Realm beings and softly said, ”Then I shall be straightforward. The three of us have discovered that ever since the Alien Race began, the biggest problem facing our Human Clan is our inability to consolidate our strength. Though we nominally follow orders, in reality, we are scattered, and our strength is not fully gathered.

Therefore, we believe for our Human Clan to unite all strength effectively, we must be like a dynasty or a great sect, with a complete system and a leader.

And we all unanimously agree that Sect Leader Cao is the most suitable candidate.”

”Me?” Cao Zhen looked at the three in a daze, never imagining that they had come to elect him as the leader of the Human Clan.

Demonic Lord Fan Ying nodded slightly and said, ”Yes, none is more suitable than you, Sect Leader Cao.”

”But my current cultivation base hasn’t even reached the Peak True Immortal Realm.” Cao Zhen instinctively shook his head, wanting to refuse. He hadn’t even managed well as the Hundred Peaks Sect Leader, nearly leading them to destruction. Being expected to lead the entire Eastern Province felt overwhelming.

Huan Kong Demon Lord immediately interjected, ”But Sect Leader Cao, you are the reincarnation of a Daluo Golden Immortal, and in this life, at the very least, you can become a Daluo Golden Immortal. Moreover, we have all witnessed your contributions to the Human Clan; no one else is as fitting as you.”

He also looked to the members of the Extreme Formation Sect and asked, ”What do you all think about Sect Leader Cao leading our Eastern Province?”

The Extreme Formation Sect Leader quickly responded, ”Naturally, there is none more fitting. Not to mention that Sect Leader Cao is the reincarnation of a Daluo Golden Immortal; even if he were a typical True Immortal Realm being, I believe he would still be the best choice.

Sect Leader Cao has always selflessly dedicated himself to our Human Clan, and I’ve never seen anyone with such a sense of righteousness.

Do you know what Sect Leader Cao did before you arrived? He was imparting incredibly powerful formation knowledge to us, knowledge that he could have easily kept as the legacy of the Hundred Peaks Sect.”

Cao Zhen quickly spoke, ”Extreme Formation Sect Leader, that knowledge was originally meant to be your sect’s legacy. I am merely returning it.”

”No, if it were someone else, they might not have returned it, let alone stayed to instruct us further. I mean no offense to you three, but if the Human Clan must choose a leader, aside from Sect Leader Cao, I wouldn’t acknowledge anyone else.”

As the Extreme Formation Sect Leader’s words ended, numerous experts from the Extreme Formation Sect also voiced their agreement.

”Indeed, no one is more suitable than Sect Leader Cao.”

”Sect Leader Cao, since the three of them have come together, you should agree.”

”Sect Leader Cao, our Human Clan truly needs a leader to guide us. Concerning the other Three States, we cannot say, but the Eastern Province must choose a leader.”

The Sword Lord, seeing this, continued, ”Sect Leader Cao, you can see that your leadership over the Eastern Province is a widespread hope. For the sake of our entire Human Clan, we urge you not to decline anymore.”
