Chapter 1605: A dumba.s.s who thinks too highly of himself (4)
The process of welcoming guests lasted for an entire morning
At midday, the coronation of Young Sect Master and engagement ceremony was held right in front of the public square in front of Celestial Light Sect’s main door, as it was about to start.
With the support of Murong Fei, Murong De walked up the stage slowly.
The entire public square quietened down.
“Distinguished guests from various powerhouses in South Sky Region and disciples of Celestial Light Sect, it’s an honour to have invited all of you here. I believe that everyone knows that today is an extremely important date to us Celestial Light Sect. From today onwards, our Sect will have a successor and my daughter Murong Fei, has a man who she can entrust her life to.”
Murong De’s gaze brushed past Li Lingchuan and Murong Fei who were standing beside him as he opened his mouth to speak ruefully.
He had naturally valued Li Moying much more, no matter if it was for Young Sect Master or his son-in-law, it was Li Moying who was much more dependable. But now he had no other choices.
Li Lingchuan seemed to have seen through his thoughts as he took a step upwards and said, “Master please be a.s.sured. This disciple will never let down your hopes and valuation, and will lead Celestial Light Sect to new heights! I will also let Fei’er become the most fortunate and glorious lady in the entire South Sky Region!”
Murong Fei’s lips immediately surfaced a smile.
To receive a confession so openly, naturally was a very glamorous matter.
Especially before this, it had always been her to stick to Li Moying. Not to mention being affectionate to openly, he simply just treated her as air.
Now that Li Lingchuan had been so attentive towards her, it had satisfied her vanity and adding on to the considerations of reality benefits, she immediately casted Li Moying behind her.
When Murong De heard that, he nodded as a praiseful look appeared in his eyes, “En, not bad, this Master naturally believes in you! But in terms of cultivation, you need to put more effort into it, to get closer to your Eldest Senior Brother who had already pa.s.sed on.”
When Li Lingchuan heard these words, his expression stiffened a little and he nodded his head a little while later, “Yes, I will obey Master’s teachings!”
He had thought that he had already successfully brainwashed this old man completely! But he had not imagined that his heart was still longing for Li Moying! He even dared to compare him against Li Moying!

Could it be that he was so incomparable to Li Moying, even if that fellow was already dead but yet he could only live under his shadow?
But no matter how much Murong De longed for Li Moying was totally useless!
Just like those ordinary disciples, there was no meaning in opposing him becoming Young Sect Master!
Because there was no way a dead person…. could possibly be revived!
There were many pract.i.tioners from other Sects who heard the conversation on the stage and they exchanged glances as they started applauding together.
But secretly, they started to engage in commentaries softly.
“What’s going on? What do you guys say…. Does Sect Master Murong know or not, about Li Lingchuan causing Li Moying’s death?”
“I think, he probably doesn’t know much. Li Lingchuan is not an idiot so he definitely wouldn’t let this news emit to his ears! But for Murong De to not know about this completely without a single doubt, I don’t believe it at all! After all, he had been a Sect Master for several hundreds of years so how could he be that silly!”
“Then why did he still…..”
“That’s easy to understand! If you were in his position, you probably could only do this as well! Li Lingchuan’s innate talent, although compared to Li Moying, he’s a complete trash but among the talents in South Sky Region, he is still one of the top few. He has the highest innate talent and ability in the current Celestial Light Sect! What else could Old Man Murong do? Just act as if you don’t know a thing, as long as you don’t expose him directly, that will do!
