Chapter 279 Senior Sister of Qingling Peak
Lin Zhao understood that the Grand Elder meant that he wanted to use his materials to try to break through to the Immortal Artifact realm, and if he succeeded, he would waive the fees for him.

But judging from Song Tingning's words, the Grand Elder has been stuck here for a long time. Will he be able to succeed?

Although the saying goes, "If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them," these kinds of materials are not easy to find. Once you use something, you won't have the face to point it out, and you'll really lose everything.

The Grand Elder also noticed Lin Zhao's doubts and said with a smile, "Don't worry, even if the refining is unsuccessful, at the very least you can refine a high-grade sacred artifact, and it will far surpass ordinary high-grade sacred artifacts."

Lin Zhao immediately smiled and thanked them repeatedly. Although the other party said that no other fees were needed, she still handed Song Tingning a Qiankun bag.

"There are some rare metal materials inside. They're not very useful to me as an alchemist, so I gave them to my senior brother to practice on."

Song Tingning took a look and his expression immediately changed. The things inside were more than just rare. Even if he and the Grand Elder were to search for these things, it would probably take a lot of time and spirit stones.

Although the Grand Elder couldn't see what was inside, he could tell from his disciple's expression that what Lin Zhao had given him was no ordinary item, and a genuine smile appeared in his eyes.

Seeing that Lin Zhao had finished her business, the sect leader waved to her and said, "Let's go, little girl. There are some things that you need to handle personally."

Lin Zhao understood that it concerned the young master of the Phoenix Medicine Sect, nodded, and followed behind the sect leader. While flying on his sword, he listened as the sect leader asked, "You and Song boy shouldn't have any other kind of feelings for each other, right?"

It took Lin Zhao a moment to realize what the other person was talking about. She felt a bit amused and shook her head: "How could Senior Brother Song and I have any other feelings? We are just senior and junior siblings."

The sect leader gave her a meaningful look: "You think that way, but Song boy might not. Little girl, your looks are really attractive."

Lin Zhao was silent for a moment: "Then should I change back to my previous Lin Hui appearance?"

"That's not necessary. What's wrong with being good-looking? My Phoenix Medicine Sect's young master should be handsome! Let the old men from other continents be envious!"

Lin Zhao sighed and followed the sect leader to his office. The two of them worked for two days and two nights to complete all the preparations for the young master's succession ceremony.

By the time Lin Zhao emerged from the sect leader's cave, the succession ceremony was about to begin, and all the arrangements outside had been made.

As soon as she put on the outer robe symbolizing her position as the young master, she noticed that the other elders, peak masters, and their personal disciples were all in place.

The elders' expressions were relatively normal, but the disciples under the elders' names, especially the disciples from Qingyun Peak, looked at her with a hint of schadenfreude.

Ma Bin was even more so; his eyes not only revealed blatant schadenfreude but also a hint of playful anticipation.

Before Lin Zhao could understand what this meant, she met Song Tingning's slightly worried gaze.

What does this mean? Why do these disciples give her the feeling that she's about to die?
"Senior Sister Qingling Peak has emerged from seclusion in the Greedy Wolf Secret Realm."

Suddenly, she heard Song Tingning's voice.

Lin Zhao understood instantly.

Of the three peaks of the Phoenix Medicine Sect, Qingyun Peak was the strongest before, with Sima Ling as its leading figure among the younger generation. Qingling Peak was the next strongest, and its leading figure among the younger generation was said to be the senior sister of Qingling Peak, who was the only one in the Phoenix Medicine Sect at the time who could pose a threat to Sima Ling. The leading figure of Qingjian Peak, led by the Grand Elder, was Song Tingning.

Sima Ling is currently missing within the sect, and Qingyun Peak no longer has any formidable opponents who can rival these two.

Even though Lin Zhao is now the undisputed young master, his cultivation level is only at the early stage of the Heartbeat Realm, and there is still a visible gap between him and Senior Sister Qingling Peak and Song Tingning.

Just as the disciples of Qingyun Peak had a problem with her, the young master who was only in the early stages of the Heartbeat Realm, this senior sister of Qingling Peak, who was said to be able to rival Sima Ling at his peak, probably also had a lot of complaints about her. However, Lin Zhao wasn't worried at all. She followed the gazes of the others who were watching the show and looked at the woman in red behind the fifth elder of Qingling Peak.

To everyone's surprise, the woman in red did not show any dissatisfaction. On the contrary, she cooperated fully with the succession process and presented the talisman on behalf of the younger generation of Qingling Peak to command the disciples of Qingyun Peak.

As Lin Zhao stood on the high platform, a violent energy suddenly erupted from the talisman when her fingertips touched it, blasting towards her entire hand.

Under the probing gaze of the woman in red, Lin Zhao pinched the talisman and thanked her.

Seeing that Lin Zhao had neutralized her attack, the woman in red didn't say anything more, took a step back, and made no further moves.

Until the entire succession ceremony is completed, Lin Zhao will have become the young master of the Phoenix Medicine Sect in every sense of the word. Once the sect leader steps down, she will be the next sect leader.

By this time, it was almost dusk, and everyone was losing interest as they realized there was no more excitement to be had.

Just then, the woman in red, who had been quiet all day, walked up to Lin Zhao, who was about to go back to cultivate.

The other disciples who were about to leave immediately stopped in their tracks, watching this scene with great interest.

Lin Zhao met the scrutinizing gaze of the woman in red and smiled slightly: "Senior Sister."

The woman in red lowered her eyes and, in a clear voice, directly admitted what she had done at the ceremony.

"I hid a level 5 explosive talisman in the talisman I gave you, but you neutralized it."

Lin Zhao smiled at her but did not answer.

“I do have some doubts about whether your cultivation level is enough to be the young master, but I understand that the sect has no better choice than you now, and what you did back then is worthy of this position.”

Lin Zhao was somewhat surprised to hear this. She had thought that this senior sister, who was once on par with Sima Ling, would not acknowledge her.

Lin Zhao was somewhat surprised, let alone the others.

Ma Bin, who had waited for this moment for so long, was especially furious.

When did Hongfeng become so good-tempered?
Why aren't they disciplining Lin Zhao, that brat who stole the young master's position in the early stages of the "Heartbeat" relationship?

While he was still immersed in his anger, he heard Hongfeng say, "That level-five explosive talisman was my test, and it was also my fault. After the Greedy Wolf Secret Realm, I will apply to go to the Demon Realm for five years as a warning to others."

As she said this, she glanced meaningfully toward Qingyun Peak, especially at Ma Bin.

For some reason, he felt that Hongfeng's gaze was particularly cold towards him.

Seeing that Ma Bin noticed her coldness, Hongfeng continued, "You are now the young master. If there are any disciples who are as disrespectful as I am, you have the right to exile them, regardless of whether they are your personal disciples or not."

Now Ma Bin was certain the other person was talking about him, and he couldn't help but grit his teeth in anger.

But in the end, he slumped his shoulders in despair.

What could he do? The sect's highest authority unconditionally stood by Lin Zhao, and the two strongest young members of the sect, Song Tingning and Hong Feng, were on good terms with Lin Zhao. If he continued to oppose Lin Zhao, he would be courting death.
