NOVEL NEXT Chapter 8: Holy Son.....
Laying on the bed,though Jiang Chen was excited ,he was tired too ,so he fell asleep.
Zi xia entered the hall ,there were many peak masters ,elders and sect master was too present sitting on the center of the hall on a single throne like chair.
She took her designated seat ,soon
Sect Master ,seeing all of them present said " Since all you are here,there are some urgent matters which I'd like discuss with you all"
An elder asked " what is it Sect Master which would require all of us to be present??"
All other elders were too thinking why they have instantly summoned.
"Since all of you are already aware of Jiang Chen's betrayal ,I'd like to discuss what should we do about this,should we continue searching for him or should we leave him be"
An elder said angrily "Of course ....hunt him down ...how dare he...."
Another said calmly while stroking his beard " yes,he disrespected the sect , disrespected his master, disrespected out ancestral teachings ,for the sake of dao,he should be burned"
"Yes,Our sect's Respect is on the line,what would others say if we can't even punishment a single traitor" Another person said
Sect Master hearing all of this nodded and looked at Gu Yan ,who was calmly listening to this ,he asked "Gu Yan ,what do you think??"
Gu Yan calmly said " Everybody is equal in the eyes of sect's law"
Gu Yan didn't say anything further and calmly shut her eyes.
This time ,sect master looked at Zi xia and asked "What do you think peak master Zi xia? ,since you weren't present in his judgement Time,I'd like to ask of your opinion.
Everyone knowing Jiang Chen's history with Zi Xia looked at her ,would she laught at him,or would she regret that she wasn't there when he was banished.
Zi xia's heart hearing all of this from start was raging inferno right now ,she wants to blast them all into pieces but she can't,she knew it,they are just dogs ,they don't matter,
Calming herself down.
In a highly cold voice she said" Sect Master, why don't you talk about the real reason for this ' gathering ' ,you've already punished him ,abolished him and now he is getting hunted , I don't think there is any reason for this new ' Judgement Gathering ' right..."
Hearing her ,Sect Master smiled " You are right,he is not that important that I'd gather all important people of sect to judge ....
I just wanted to lighten the mood hahaha"
Hearing this dong sect master's word ,she was angry,really really angry,...'what do you mean he is not important,he is the most important,but you ...you are not important,your whole family is not important,your whole sect is not important...'
After cursing in her small little heart which only contains Jiang Chen ,she calmed down and closed her eyes and didn't said anything.
Now this would be very disrespectfully to the Sect Master's authority but Zi xia has always been like this ,not caring about anyone.
Sect Master too Didn't mind.
Everyone else too ignore her behaviour except Gu Yan as she knew her truth ,the truth of her not hating Jiang Chen like everybody thought she does.
Gu Yan knows Zi xia liked Jiang Chen from the start ,she never hated him but liked him as she once has approached Gu Yan just after the disciple acceptance ceremony to ask her to give Jiang Chen to her but she refused.
And her constant glaring at Jiang Chen always proved her obsession for him but now she tried to avoid talking about him .
Why ,did she get over her obsession for him?? Or is she just controlling herself ,Gu Yan didn't know why but she felt something is different about Zi xia but she didn't dwell on it as it has nothing to do with her.
Everyone else that Jiang Chen's issue was not priority got stunned as it was serious matter,even though his cultivation base has been abolished,he was now being hunted ,he still has 'That' thing in his pocession which they needed so calling a gathering for Jiang Chen didn't seem excessive for others but now there is a different matter which is priority.
Soon Sect Master continued " As you all know ,Since Jiang Chen's Banishment,our Holy son's position is vacant"
"Yes" many oldies nodded
"But what does holy son's position has to do with this gathering as even before Jiang Chen was elected as The Holy Son ,our Holy son's position was vacant for nearly 100years ,so there should be no problem now even if holy son's position is vacant" one old older said stroking his Weird beard.
Sect Master said solennly"Well there wouldn't have been any problem if Jiang Chen wasn't choosen as Holy Son"
"Sect Master,please tell us clearly ,what do you mean" an old man said,his institution kicking sensing the foreboding on sect master's words.
"Well nearly 1000 years ago,there was a duel of life and death between the holy son's of Our Heavenly Sword Sect and Qingyuan Sect ,both fought for many days and nights and at the end ,Our Heavenly Sword Sect's holy son won the duel by a hair's breath,at that time ,because of the death of holy son of Qingyuan Immortal Sect ,war broke out between our sects and many casualties occured,finally seeing the graveness of war,both parties decided to end the war by forming a condition...."
"And that condition was to let their next generation of holy sons have a duel of life and death..."
