Chapter 708: Internal Strife



Inside the council chamber of Sun Moon Sect!

When Elder Fiery Dragon arrived, Sect Leader Leonel and many high-ranking members of the sect were already gathered here.

“Greetings, Sect Leader!”

Upon entering, Elder Fiery Dragon bowed slightly and greeted Leonel.

Regardless of seniority, Leonel, as the Sect Leader, held the highest position in Sun Moon Sect.

“Senior Fiery, please, have a seat.”

Leonel gestured to his left politely.

Inside the council chamber, some of the high-ranking members of Sun Moon Sect were giving Elder Fiery Dragon strange looks.

Their gazes seemed to hold a hint of displeasure and inquiry.

However, Elder Fiery Dragon seemed unfazed and did not react. Instead, he addressed Leonel in a serious tone, “Sect Leader, Sun Moon Sect has worshipped Dragon Ancestor for generations. It is our faith, our god. Now that I have brought the descendant of Dragon Ancestor to the sect, why has the Sect Leader not met him immediately? Why are you all gathered here to discuss something of such importance?”

As his words fell, several cold snorts rang out!

“Senior Fiery, although Sun Moon Sect has indeed worshipped Dragon Ancestor for generations, isn’t it premature to confirm Lachlan as the descendant of Dragon Ancestor?”

“Senior Elder, even though you hold a high position within the sect, some decisions cannot be made by you alone.”

“The Descendant of Dudrar Dragon? Isn’t he just a fraud?”

Several elders of Sun Moon Sect expressed their dissatisfaction.

Elder Fiery Dragon, with a fiery temper, let out a heavy cold snort upon hearing their words, “Many high-ranked members and I have witnessed Dragon Ancestor’s presence! That aura, indistinguishable from the one emitted by the Dragon Ancestor statue. You were not present at the time, so what do you know! Am I, Fiery, incapable of discerning the truth?”

At this moment, Sect Leader Leonel raised his hand, signaling for everyone to cease their arguments.

Then, he looked at Elder Fiery Dragon and asked in a stern tone, “Senior Fiery, I heard that you told Lachlan that once his identity as the Descendant of Dudrar Dragon is established, we should worship him as the main figure in Sun Moon Sect? And even obey his commands in the future?”

Elder Fiery Dragon’s expression flickered for a moment, seemingly feeling a bit guilty.

These words seemed somewhat inappropriate!

“Sect Leader, I might have spoken too soon. It was only to have Lachlan come to the sect for examination. I have not sought your and the consent of the other high-ranking members. That was my mistake.”

“But if it is indeed proven that Lachlan is the Descendant of Dudrar Dragon, shouldn’t Sun Moon Sect worship him as the main figure? I don’t see any issues with that. If Dragon Ancestor chose Lachlan as his successor, he represents the faith of the sect for thousands of years. Shouldn’t we follow him once faith descends upon us?”

Upon hearing this, Leonel’s expression turned dark, showing a hint of resistance and anger.

“Senior Fiery, your words are wrong! The sect can assist and support the successor of Dragon Ancestor, but that does not mean we should worship him. He is someone from the outside and knows nothing. How can we let him command the sect?”

Leonel, as the Sect Leader of Sun Moon Sect, had full authority over the affairs of the sect.

Now, with the sudden appearance of a successor of Dragon Ancestor who might threaten his position, would he willingly let someone else lead the sect?

As his words fell, some of Sun Moon Sect’s high-ranking members also voiced their opposition, creating a cacophony of differing opinions.

But there were also many who maintained silence, expressing ambiguous attitudes.

The belief in the Dragon Ancestor had been deeply ingrained in the people of Sun Moon Sect for thousands of years.

If a true descendant of Dudrar Dragon appeared, it would have a significant impact on the members of Sun Moon Sect. Not only Elder Fiery Dragon was willing to follow the faith!

After all, generation after generation, the sect had benefited immensely from the “blessing of the Dragon Ancestor.” This feeling of being favored by the Dragon Ancestor had permeated their hearts.

“Sect Leader, I think Elder Fiery Dragon has a point! The Spiritual Vein is drying up, and Sun Moon Sect is weakening day by day. If we continue to decline after this generation, even the next generations won’t be able to grow without the support of the Spiritual Vein. Perhaps this Lachlan’s sudden appearance, allowing us to occupy the island and gain the Spiritual Vein, coupled with his possible status as a descendant of Dragon Ancestor, could be the sect’s awakening. It may truly be the divine intervention to save the sect, as if the Dragon Ancestor has manifested! Following the successor of the Dragon Ancestor might indeed be the right choice!”

At that moment, a middle-aged man sitting on Leonel’s right side spoke after careful consideration. His voice was calm and steady.

He wore a black robe, creating a sharp contrast with Leonel’s white attire. Although his appearance seemed rugged, his eyes gleamed with shrewdness and wisdom.

In Sun Moon Sect, the one with the most power was not the senior elders like Fiery Dragon but the “Yin-Yang Twin Halls.”

Representing the sun and the moon, they symbolized the legendary Yin and Yang eyes of the candle dragon!

The master of the Yin hall was known as “Yin Tai Chi,” and the master of the Yang hall was called “Yang Tai Chi”!

Before ascending to the position of Sect Leader, Leonel was the master of the Yang hall. The one who spoke was the “Yin Tai Chi” of Sun Moon Sect, Chester Stuart!

In Sun Moon Sect, their words carried significant weight.

Upon hearing his words, Elder Fiery Dragon nodded slightly, and the previously silent high-ranking members of Sun Moon Sect exchanged glances and echoed his sentiments.

“Indeed! It seems that there is a higher power at play!”

“Our Spiritual Vein is on the brink of depletion, and the appearance of the Descendant of Dudrar Dragon… isn’t this the will of the heavens?”

“The Dragon Ancestor is blessing Sun Moon Sect! How can we go against its will?”

“Let’s meet this Lachlan first before deciding.”

Listening to these voices, Leonel’s face grew even darker.

He had anticipated that within Sun Moon Sect, there would be voices supporting the Descendant of Dudrar Dragon.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

To protect his position and power, he had already made plans when he learned that Elder Fiery Dragon would bring Lachlan to the sect.

How could Sun Moon Sect worship the Descendant of Dudrar Dragon as their leader? It was impossible!

Even if Lachlan turned out to be genuine, he would never allow it!

The sect could only be ruled by himself!

However, to be on the safe side, there was no need to verify the truth of his identity.
