Chapter 203 One Step to Heaven
At this moment, seeing Lu Yuan take the initiative to stand up for Yao Yue,
Chang Mo's eyes flashed with coldness, reaching the very corners of his eyes.
Then he said, "Since someone wants to stand up for Yao Yue, let's deal with Lu Yuan first and teach him a lesson so he knows what happens when he goes against me."
He spoke with an air of superiority.
The other outer disciples grinned maliciously.
More than ten people immediately surrounded him. When they had nothing to do, they liked to tease the new disciple. They had originally thought that Lu Yuan had some talent.
It's not easy for us to deal with them either.
But now it seems they're just ordinary, not good enough to become an elder's disciple. With Chang Mo backing them up, there's no problem at all.
Seeing this, Meng Tong said anxiously, "Senior Brother Chang Mo, what you're doing is too domineering. We haven't provoked you."
"Hehe, you must be the little girl from the Meng family. Even if your grandfather were here, he wouldn't dare to talk back to me like this, let alone you." Chang Mo was laughing, but his tone was cold.
Upon seeing this scene, Fu Chuan's eyes revealed a complex expression.
However, I was also secretly pleased.
It seems that Lu Yuan and his group aren't having a smooth time in the outer sect either; they've already run into trouble in such a short time.
Although given his status, he had no access to someone like Chang Mo and didn't know what the other person did.
But just from seeing how he could command more than a dozen outer disciples with just one sentence, it's clear he's no ordinary person.
Seeing these disciples rushing over, Lu Yuan showed no mercy and met them head-on with a punch. Their cultivation levels were all at the Transcendent Realm. The combat power of these outer disciples was far inferior to that of the demon race, let alone Lu Yuan.
He swung his fist, and a bluish-gold light shone from it.
A massive fist-shaped aura pierced the air.
A disciple who had just rushed forward was sent flying by the impact.
This was only because Lu Yuan showed mercy; otherwise, the other party would definitely have died.
However, things weren't going well for him either; he collapsed to the ground, spitting blood.
He was clearly seriously injured.
Upon seeing this, Chang Mo's eyes flashed with surprise; he hadn't expected Lu Yuan's combat strength to be so formidable.
However, in the instant his face was filled with astonishment, everyone had already been knocked to the ground.
The scene before him made Chang Mo's face turn extremely ugly.
Lu Yuan continued walking towards him step by step.
With each step taken, an invisible pressure emanated from all directions.
It almost shattered his body.
Chang Mo retreated, looking at the other disciples lying miserably on the ground, and said to Lu Yuan, "Do you know my identity? My master is a sect elder."
If you hurt me, my master will certainly not let you off.
Feeling the powerful aura emanating from Lu Yuan.
Chang Mo finally couldn't help but bring up his master.
Although it was embarrassing, there was no other way. He didn't want to end up like everyone else, beaten and bruised all over.
However, just as he finished speaking, the sound of something cutting through the air rang out at the same time.
Then, a figure appeared.
It was none other than the chief disciple, Ling Mo. He stared at Chang Mo and said, "How dare you threaten a sect elder!"
After saying that, he struck out with his palm.
Before Chang Mo could even react, his body had already suffered a severe injury.
Blood spurted from his mouth.
He collapsed to the ground, convulsing uncontrollably.
However, the look of horror in his eyes intensified.
He had naturally met Ling Mo before, but the other party's status was too high, and he had never had any contact with him.
Now, when Chang Mo is knocked away.
Everyone was stunned, after all, Ling Mo usually had a high and mighty demeanor and would never do anything to the outer disciples.
Chang Mo is now seriously injured.
It gives the impression of an elephant trying to swat a mosquito.
Not only were the others dumbfounded, but Chang Mo was even more bewildered.
But Ling Mo ignored him and slowly stepped forward, bowing to Lu Yuan and saying, "Greetings, Ninth Elder."
His words startled the latter.
I don't know how I became the Ninth Elder.
Seeing Lu Yuan's reaction, Ling Mo respectfully said, "Last night, the sect leader discussed with the elders and recommended you as the Ninth Elder."
Today was supposed to be the official coronation day, but you went out. Seeing that it was getting late, your junior disciple came out to find you.
The date will probably have to be set for tomorrow.
After hearing Ling Mo's explanation, Lu Yuan was no longer surprised. After all, his master was indeed an ancient being, so giving him the title of elder was not unreasonable.
Thinking of this, he nodded and said, "I understand. I will go to see the sect leader first thing tomorrow morning."
Ling Mo immediately replied, "Yes, Elder."
Then, he looked at the group of outer disciples lying on the ground and reprimanded them, "You have been disrespectful to the elders. According to the sect rules, go find the Discipline Elder and each of you will receive three hundred lashes."
Upon hearing his words, Chang Mo and the others all looked distressed. That whip was no ordinary whip; it was the Wind and Thunder Whip of the Changqing Sect.
Three hundred lashes would probably kill someone half to death, but no one dared to object.
He could only bow to Lu Yuan and Ling Mo before turning and leaving.
Meanwhile, Meng Tong, Yao Yue, and Man Gu Tun, who were standing beside Lu Yuan, all showed excited expressions on their faces.
Lu Yuan had actually become a sect elder—something they never even dared to dream of.
Especially Yao Yue, who was practically pressing her body against him at this moment.
However, Lu Yuan didn't take it too seriously.
After greeting Ling Mo, he led everyone back into the city.
Fu Chuan, who had just witnessed all of this, was completely stunned. He never expected that things would end up like this.
Lu Yuan has actually become an elder.
I was so stupid.
However, it's too late to say anything now.
What's done is done; it was all his choice back then.
This news quickly spread throughout the entire sect.
Lu Yuan is about to be promoted to elder.
Why can a newly joined disciple become an elder directly?
Many people are questioning it, but no one dares to say much.
At that very moment, in the Zhang family's courtyard, Zhang Heng was watering the flowers he had planted.
During this period, Zhang Ke's performance within the sect was quite good, and although Lu Yuan had alarmed the sect's higher-ups, there had been no news of him.
So his mood improved a lot.
However, at that moment, a figure rushed in.
The speed was very fast. When Zhang Heng turned around, he was surprised to see his son, which made him frown.
His lifespan was nearing its end, and he intended to groom his son to become the next head of the family.
Therefore, he had been admonishing the other party to be more composed, but the fact that the other party was still so reckless made him furious.
Then he said, "How old are you? Still so reckless. How can I entrust the family to you? Even if the sky falls, there are taller people to hold it up. What are you panicking about!"
His voice involuntarily rose considerably.
The eldest son of the Zhang family, who had rushed in, stopped in his tracks.
But he couldn't help but say, "Father, I just received news that the sect has decided to appoint Lu Yuan as an elder. It is said that he has taken a very high-ranking person as his master."
"Impossible!" Zhang Heng immediately exclaimed.
"It's absolutely true. Ling Mo said it himself on the street. He even beat up Chang Mo for Lu Yuan's sake."
At this moment, Zhang Heng had no choice but to believe it.
After all, in the Zhang family's eyes, Chang Mo was an absolutely untouchable big shot.
Although her son was sometimes impulsive, he knew his limits and would never dare to speak ill of Chang Mo.
Therefore, Zhang Heng immediately froze on the spot.
He never expected that Lu Yuan could rise to the top in one step.
