Chu Bai soon found the Great Elder who was drinking in the small village.
Under the dim light of the tavern, the First Elder sat there and drank alone.
First Elder really couldnât think of how he was worse than others. Why did he end up like this every time?
He was clearly on the verge of success, but he did not expect to fail in the end. âWhy are you secretly drinking here alone?â Chu Baiâs sudden arrival had given the Great Elder a fright. He hadnât expected Bai Ye to come to his side.
âNothing, I just came to see you and our new sect leader. I said that I would give the position of sect leader to you. I didnât expect you to take the initiative to propose such a condition. Then I canât do anything about it.â
Chu Bai still wanted to calm him down, which was why he said this now.
When the First Elder heard this, he felt that something was wrong. Did he still have a chance to say such words?
âWhat do you mean by that? Could it be that thereâs still a chance between us?â
The Great Elder suddenly had hope rekindled. Could it be that there was really hope in this situation?
âYou mean to say that I still have hope? Are you really willing to give me the position?â The First Elder looked over in confusion. He did not expect that he would still have a chance in this position.
âOf course I will give you the chance you deserve. Donât worry about that.â
Chu Bai promised once again. Although he said that, no one knew what would happen behind his back.
âAre you serious? If youâre serious, you should give up your seat to me and not talk to me like this. Now, do you want to give up your seat to me or do you want to continue chatting with me?â
The Great Elder still could not figure out what would happen here. After all, he was a little uncertain about the current situation.
Chu Bai actually didnât have much interest in the position of sect master, but he had to have a reason to stand here.
âI have to stand here. I have no choice.â Chu Bai didnât know what to say now. After all, he wasnât standing here for anyone else. In fact, he was mainly here to take care of more people.
â You said that you canât give me the position, but itâs not the same, right? You can continue to live a carefree life and bring your people anywhere you want. I wonât say anything even if you stay.â First Elder really couldnât understand.
âAlthough I think so and itâs not a big deal to give up my position to you, this matter is not as simple as you think.â Chu Bai didnât know how to describe it.
âI know that you are a group of outsiders. I have already noticed it a long time ago, but I donât know why you are staying here. You should have more places to goâ
Chu Bai couldnât do anything about it. In this situation, there was nothing good to say.
Since the Great Elder had already guessed it, there was no need to hide it.
âWe did come from another place, but I havenât found more places. After all, itâs not that easy for you to leave this mountain. You have to at least defeat some people unless you can help me.â
Chu Bai once again stated his purpose. After going around in circles, he still needed help.
âSo you came here because you need my help. Iâm really surprised.â The Great Elder did not expect things to turn out like this. He actually needed help.
If he was helped now, it would indeed be beneficial to him, but what about him?
The Great Elder really could not think of what kind of benefits he could obtain by helping him.
It didnât seem to mean much to him. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even if Chu Bai could leave this place, what would he have left?
âIf you want me to help you, itâs actually very simple. Itâs not too difficult. Give me your position first, and then I can help you without any scruples.â
The Great Elder had been secretly cultivating recently to improve his rope, especially his dual blade cultivation.
The last battle with Dugu Wen had made him feel helpless, so he had changed a lot.
âSince you said so, then Iâm very sincere. Within a week, you just have to help me defeat three people.â Chu Bai had made up his mind this time.
If he didnât kill these people, he would always feel uncomfortable.
âArenât you guys working together? Why did you do it?â First Elder had already guessed who one of them was.
âAlright, since you already know, then I wonât hide anymore. Actually, I want to deal with him because heâs expanding very quickly. If I donât deal with him, even if you take over in the future, youâll die quickly.â
What Chu Bai said was very reasonable. After all, whoever accepted this position would definitely be the thorn in the other partyâs palm in the future. âAlright, alright. Since weâve already said so much, letâs work together and decide whether weâll deal with him first or not.â
First Elder started playing the Riddler game.
Chu Bai was helpless. He didnât expect to play Riddler again.
âLetâs not play riddles here. Actually, the person I want to deal with is very simple. Iâll ask him to come over tomorrow. At that time, the two of us can work together.â
Chu Bai didnât want to go through all those twists and turns. After all, this was all there was to it. It wasnât a big problem.
The two of them working together should be a good situation. Anyway, things had already come to this point. There was not much difference in doing those things. They had to do this.
âAlright, then Iâll look forward to it tomorrow. I hope itâs as you said. There wonât be any problems. If anything really happens, Iâll run away first. I still have to make this clear to you.â
The Great Elder was a temperamental person to begin with. He had his own methods for such matters, and at the last moment, he would definitely protect his own interests.
â Every man for himself. Itâs not a big deal to protect yourself. I just hope that you can severely injure him in the battle tomorrow.â
After Chu Bai finished speaking, he turned around and sent a message to Freedom King.
Of course, the person he wanted to deal with was him. This guy had recently gained so much territory, but he didnât come to help him. It was obvious that he had forgotten about him.
Chu Bai wanted to completely resolve this problem because he had already expanded too much. If he didnât fight with him again, he would probably be the one to be annexed.
Moreover, he had to call another person for this decisive battle.
Especially that person, he had to call him. Without his help, it would not work.
