Chapter 136: Hesitation and Indecision Cannot Accomplish Things

Escaping from the messy ceremony scene, Dabao led Chu Danqing to track them all the way.

They arrived at a forest at the foot of the north side of Mount Canluo.

Chu Danqing and Dabao poked their heads out, not daring to go over.

The two seemed to have erupted into a fierce argument; he didn't know the reason, but he guessed it had something to do with the sect leader position.

After watching for about fifteen seconds, the two's voices stopped, and their eyes turned to Chu Danqing and Dabao simultaneously.

"That... I was a volunteer for the neighborhood office for two days, and I have a little experience in mediation; why don't I mediate for you two?" Chu Danqing felt the awkwardness of being caught by the main parties while watching the fun and listening to gossip.

"Murong Ying." The woman cupped her hands and said immediately: "You can sit in the main seat, so your status must be extraordinary; it's just right for you to judge."

Murong Ying began to tell the story.

Chu Danqing skipped the dog-blood story of the infatuated man and woman and went straight to the point.

It was basically that Zhuo Bufan was indecisive; after running to the foot of the mountain, he regretted it and wanted to go back.

"The masters and uncles treated me well, but I, because of my own selfishness..." Zhuo Bufan wanted freedom, but couldn't let down the sect.

This made him appear very twisted.

After listening, Chu Danqing finally understood; if Zhuo Bufan had a strong sense of responsibility or no sense of responsibility, it wouldn't matter, but both were not pure enough.

There was also a misunderstanding in the middle, making the Canluo Sect think Murong Ying had bewitched Zhuo Bufan, which was why they called her a demoness.

"You know it yourself, yet you drag this Miss Murong into the water; that's not very good." Chu Danqing said.

You enjoyed the benefits, and now you say you are a free soul and want to abandon the past; how can there be such a good thing?

If there was some compensation, that would be fine, but looking at Zhuo Bufan's attitude, it was obvious there was no compensation at all; he only considered that he didn't want to be the sect leader and take responsibility.

Chu Danqing naturally wouldn't indulge him.

"However, with your personality, even if you became the sect leader, you would be irresponsible." Chu Danqing said bluntly: "You go; I will tell Ziyu Jushi to change someone else to be the sect leader."

With this half-hearted appearance, who knows when he would become the sect leader and then want freedom again, harming the Canluo Sect for nothing.

Hearing this, Zhuo Bufan's expression softened, and he immediately said: "Then many thanks to Commander Chu for helping to mediate."

It seemed he felt that Chu Danqing could solve it, and his mindset suddenly relaxed.

Chu Danqing's eyes twitched; this guy was dumping the responsibility on him.

Seeing Zhuo Bufan's attitude, Murong Ying's face also dropped; the feelings that were there had already dropped to freezing point in the previous argument.

Now that such an irresponsible statement was made, the favor was completely lost.

"Since you have achieved your wish, then you and I will part ways here." After Murong Ying finished speaking, she turned and left immediately.

"Many thanks to Miss Murong for your help." Zhuo Bufan didn't care about the other party's departure, only feeling that he had shed his shackles and the world was vast.

"Then Commander Chu, I will take my leave." Zhuo Bufan said to Chu Danqing again and left without any hesitation.

He had responsibility, so he hesitated.

Now that he had dumped the responsibility on Chu Danqing, he naturally didn't hesitate anymore.

Thus, he left with a dashing appearance.

Chu Danqing shook his head: "An indecisive guy; what a waste of this martial art and aptitude."

He could be sure that Zhuo Bufan would be like this for the rest of his life.

Originally, he had the chance to become another world's number one, or at the very least, a top expert like Yuan Chong.

Now that he had left the Canluo Sect to seek his own way, let alone practicing martial arts, even maintaining his martial arts without regressing would be a difficult task.

As the saying goes, "Poor literature, rich martial arts"; practicing martial arts not only requires quitting one's job but also eating well; without the support of a force, how many people can go far?

"Sigh, sorry to trouble Commander Chu." After Zhuo Bufan was far away, Ziyu Jushi walked out from the shadows, looking worried.

No matter what, he was a disciple he had raised; after a simple arrangement, he followed Chu Danqing down the mountain, but he just couldn't show his face.

Previously, he had the idea of changing people, but all the elders and disciples opposed it, so he was forced to take the position.

Now that he was gone, it was a good thing; the Canluo Sect could change to a sect leader who was willing, and Zhuo Bufan could also go live his own carefree life.

"Then what about this matter? We can't say the sect leader ran away at the succession ceremony." Chu Danqing said.

Ziyu Jushi seemed to have figured it out and said immediately: "Just say Zhuo Bufan is unwilling to succeed as sect leader."

This kind of thing cannot be forced; saying it openly is better.

"It's just that this action of his is his own fault; we need to revoke his Canluo Sect disciple status."

"And clarify the misunderstanding our Canluo Sect had about Miss Murong before."

"The revocation of the name will be done by our Canluo Sect, but the clarification still needs the help of my lord." Ziyu Jushi was an upright person and didn't intend to cover it up.

The Canluo Sect was a famous upright sect, and doing things upright and standing tall was the way to go.

Rather than covering it up and having it explode into a scandal later, it was better to solve and deal with it in time to avoid causing bigger trouble.

"How to help? My information channel is even more blocked than yours." Chu Danqing had no way to help at all.

"No need to be too troublesome; just help preside over it a little, and I will handle the rest." Ziyu Jushi naturally didn't expect Chu Danqing to spread it one by one.

The sect leader ceremony that ended halfway was very suitable.

It just needed someone with weight to help sit in charge.

Chu Danqing was very suitable.

"Good, then do as you say." Chu Danqing accepted this task.

The three returned to the mountain; Chu Danqing presided, Ziyu Jushi came forward, and the incident ended quickly.

However, the subsequent fallout was inevitable, but these had nothing to do with Chu Danqing.

The Canluo Sect would handle the public relations itself, and he didn't need to worry about it.

At night, after Ziyu Jushi finished handling all the affairs, he forced himself to visit Chu Danqing.

After all, he was an old man; even if he was a martial artist, he couldn't bear the successive blows.

"For today's matter, many thanks to my lord for your help." Ziyu Jushi said, taking out a booklet: "This is some sword art insights from me and my four junior brothers; I hope my lord doesn't mind."

The booklet looked old and damaged, obviously an item often used by the Five Canluo Elders.

"Then I will accept it." Chu Danqing didn't need to think to know it was definitely another knowledge-type item, but he didn't take it.

He continued: "There is a lot of content here; why not find someone to copy a copy first, and then give me the original."

Newly copied ones wouldn't be recognized by the Paradise; only this original would work.

For Ziyu Jushi and the others, it made no difference.

Ziyu Jushi smiled: "My lord is meticulous; then I will have someone send it to you tomorrow."

"Fine." Chu Danqing agreed, then asked: "Then what about the next sect leader?"

"Let Mingqian come." Ziyu Jushi didn't hide it: "It's just that he is still young and lacks experience."

"We old guys can only hold on for a few more years."

Compared to Zhuo Bufan, Zhao Mingqian was more suitable.

Zhao Mingqian had feelings for both Chu Danqing and Xiong Zhigang, so he could be taken care of in the future.

Although his aptitude was not as good as Zhuo Bufan's, his character was better; at least he was a person who dared to act and take responsibility.

Fortunately, Zhao Mingqian was already sixteen; at most, he could be trained for three to five years before he could take the post.

Ziyu Jushi and the others could still live to see that.

"That's good." Chu Danqing wasn't surprised; there were only a few people who could be chosen, and Zhao Mingqian had connections and a powerful father-in-law, so his election wasn't something unbelievable.

"Since that's the case, I have stayed at Mount Canluo for half a month; I will take this original tomorrow and plan to go find the Grand Coordinator Xiong."

"If I stay any longer, I'm afraid I won't want to leave." Chu Danqing teased.

"If my lord is willing to stay for a long time, my Canluo Sect will naturally be honored." Ziyu Jushi didn't try to keep him this time.

He could see that Chu Danqing's intention to leave this time couldn't be dissuaded.

"Please be careful on the road, my lord." Ziyu Jushi continued: "Although the million-bounty on your body has eliminated one trouble, I see that this matter is not over."

Chu Danqing nodded seriously: "This time I go to the border, it is also to solve this matter."

The culprit was a high-level official of Sushen who wanted his life again and again; Chu Danqing didn't intend to endure it anymore.

He would kill his way over and make these people pay the price.

Good people also have tempers, not to mention that this time they gathered hundreds of people.

If it weren't for the ceremony, he would have had to spend 6000 Paradise points to find Guo Ming again.

"Since my lord is leaving, I cannot show nothing." Ziyu Jushi thought for a moment and took out a short sword.

"This sword was forged in my spare time."

"I see that my lord is not good with weapons; this item is just right for self-defense."

The short sword was specially designed, looking both low-key and noble.

【Suspended Heart Sword】

【Type: Equipment · Short Sword】

【Quality: Excellent】

【Durability: 100/100】

【Attack Power: 25~25】

【Heart-Piercing (Passive): Armor Penetration +20】

【Equipment Requirement: Strength 5 points】

Chu Danqing looked at the attributes; from the panel, its value was greater than the Three Mountains Sword.

"This is too precious; I cannot take it." Chu Danqing refused immediately.

This was not forged in spare time; it was definitely a work of blood and sweat.

"Hahaha, my lord is joking." Ziyu Jushi pushed the Suspended Heart Sword to Chu Danqing: "All the sword arts of our Canluo Sect are long swords and double swords."

"This short sword is not suitable."

"What I forged at the beginning was indeed a long sword, but unfortunately, my skills were not refined, and it became a short sword."

"It has been gathering dust until now; now that I have met my lord, it is just right to give it to you." Ziyu Jushi didn't lie; this Suspended Heart Sword was indeed unused by anyone.

Chu Danqing spread his hands: "I don't know how to use it either; when I really encounter something, I might hurt myself instead."

"No matter, in the future, whether you sell it or give it away, it will have a place to go." Ziyu Jushi said clearly.

He knew Chu Danqing wouldn't use it; it was just that the things he could give were limited, and the Suspended Heart Sword happened to have value and might be useful.

This was his personal thanks to Chu Danqing for helping his disciple escape, and it was not easy to use public property.
