Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five.

But this fight doesn't feel intense enough.

Zhou Fengliu's basic attack looks like a powerful move because he's strong. You can't actually use a basic attack as a powerful move.

...

"Don't move! Don't move! I haven't removed the pill yet."

Xu Xin, who had just been slapped by Ding Shian, quickly stood up and warned Ding Shian not to make any rash moves.

"?"

Ding Shian was very obedient and didn't move at all.

As soon as Xu Xin dispersed the pill, the light emanating from his body also dissipated.

While using the method of observation, he carefully observed and finally discovered the so-called Dan Shi.

It has no fixed shape, no taste, no color; it simply hangs in the air as an atmosphere.

This is something that ordinary people with supernatural abilities would absolutely find impossible to detect...

"Where should I put the Pill Devourer?"

The bewildered crowd said they had stared at it carefully for a long time, but they couldn't sense the form of the pill at all.

"Oh? Didn't you guys see it? It was hanging next to Ding Shian just now... something that looked like a raindrop."

At this moment, the quick-witted Feng Baobao stepped forward and slowly began to speak.

"what?"

Hearing Feng Baobao's words, Zhang Chulan was taken aback at first, then he looked at Lu Lin and Lu Linglong beside him and asked:

"Is there any?"

"I don't know." Lu Lin shook her head, then asked Feng Baobao:

"Miss Bao, how did you find out?"

“Look... my eyes are like a ruler, I can see very clearly.” Feng Baobao said, scratching her face.

Just as Feng Baobao was describing the state of Dan Shi to Lu Lin and the others, Ding Shian, who was in the middle of the battle, also said that he had learned something and then quietly left the scene.

Although he seemed to be constantly getting beaten up during this trip to the Tang Sect, he did indeed gain a lot.

"alright..."

Seeing that Xu Xin and Ding Shian's battle had ended, Tang Miaoxing, who was standing to the side, looked at the group of Tang Clan members present and said:

"Disciples of the Tang Clan, listen up. This senior is your new sect leader, Tang Xin, after I stepped down as sect leader."

What the hell?

Tang Xin!

New gatekeeper?

Everyone present was so shocked by the news that they were speechless, except for Zhou Fengliu, who had been watching the show and yawning, and Zhang Wang, who looked furious.

"Tang Miaoxing! Have you gone mad! Allowing the Quanxing heretic into the Tang Clan's forbidden area is bad enough, but now you want to make this old bastard the new sect leader..."

Zhang Wang glared at Tang Miaoxing and questioned her.

"What? It's not wrong for Junior Brother Xu Xin to change his surname to Tang, is it? His maternal family is from our Tang Clan... According to the rules of the Tang Clan, it's perfectly reasonable for him to be called Tang Xin. As an inner disciple, it's also reasonable for me to pass the position of sect leader to him, isn't it?"

Tang Miaoxing said this.

“He was one of the Thirty-Six Thieves back then…” Zhang Wang said, word by word.

"That was in the past... that era is over, it's a new era now. Didn't Director Zhou just say that he can be brought back to life?"

"Do you think it's possible?"

"Why is it impossible?"

"..."

After the two argued, the Tang Clan members were unsure of whose advice to take, and could only stand there stammering, at a loss.

This feeling is similar to when your parents argued and threatened to divorce you when you were a child, and they asked you who you would live with...

...

Seeing Zhang Wang remain silent after what she said, Tang Miaoxing patted Zhang Wang on the shoulder and then slowly unbuttoned her clothes:

"Junior brother, I know you're very dissatisfied with many aspects of me. I'm actually quite dissatisfied with myself too. As the leader of the Tang Sect, I have one major flaw..."

"That is because I don't know how to use the Pill Devouring Technique, so I feel... tonight, right now, I must master it."

"Tang Xin is the most suitable candidate I can find for the position of sect leader."

Hearing Tang Miaoxing's words, all the Tang Clan disciples present were shocked by this decision.

"What? The sect leader is going to inherit the Pill Devouring Technique?"

"Is it today?"

The Quanxing members and Zhang Chulan were equally confused.

They couldn't understand what Tang Miaoxing was up to...

"Tang Miaoxing! Is Dan Shi really that important?" Zhang Wang frowned as he faced Tang Miaoxing's stubbornness.

"We both witnessed Dan Shi fail back then!"

"You fart!"

As soon as Zhang Wang finished speaking, Tang Miaoxing responded to him with these three words in an angry tone.

Chapter 309: A defender of the old era, does he have a path forward in the new era?

"After I became the sect leader, I immediately sent Xu Xiang from North China to examine Zhang Huaiyi's body. Although he died from a severe blow to the chest, the meridians in his lower abdomen were already showing signs of collapse..."

"The effects of the elixir he received are taking hold..."

"No matter what the Eight Extraordinary Techniques or the Qi Body Source Flow are, the myth of Dan Shi has not been shattered!"

Tang Miaoxing has her own pride.

Or rather... the Tang Clan has its own pride.

Although many people, even the Ten Elders, were obsessed with the legendary Eight Extraordinary Techniques and wanted to obtain them, the Tang Sect didn't care...

The Dan Shi (a type of medicinal substance) is their capital and the source of their confidence when they say this.

Once the Tang Clan appears, even a god cannot save you.

This statement is rumored to be the source of the Tang Clan's confidence.

...

Tang Miaoxing, a defender of the old order, knew that the new era offered no path for him to move forward...

Therefore, he left the reform of the Tang Clan to Xu Xin, who was more resourceful and less constrained, but was wholeheartedly devoted to the Tang Clan because of his guilt towards it.

And what about him...?

As a defender of the old order, he launched a final assault on his inner obsessions and demons.

Although this plan is radical, even risking the future of the entire Tang Sect... he has already made all the necessary arrangements as the sect leader.

After this night, the Tang Clan disciples gained real combat experience and defeat, and the rules of the Tang Clan that had existed for hundreds of years were broken as a result.

Even if he fails, the Tang Sect will have a bold enough and talented leader capable of supporting change...

In this new era, the Tang Clan doesn't need so many secrets... and tonight's farce is his way of cooperating with Xu Xin's ideological liberation of the Tang Clan.

Whether he succeeds or not this time, the Tang Clan will undergo some changes...

He had forced himself to make all the necessary preparations.

...

"Junior brother, didn't you ask me before what I wanted you to promise me?"

Tang Miaoxing spoke slowly and casually to Zhang Wang:

"Now I'm telling you, I need you to promise me that if I fail, you must accept this new sect leader, and look at him carefully, just as you looked at me before..."

After he finished speaking, it was as if he had put his mind at ease, with no more burdens in his heart.

"Brother!"

Zhang Wang patted Tang Miaoxing's shoulder in an attempt to stop him, but Tang broke free.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he sat cross-legged on the giant rock in the center, which symbolized his ancestors and was engraved with the Dan Shi diagram. He closed his eyes and began his final assault on Dan Shi.

All the Tang Clan members present paid their respects to the old sect leader, except for one handsome young man who stood in one place, seemingly distracted.

At this moment, Zhou Fengliu simply glanced at the time, indicating that his overtime work tonight was finally coming to an end.

He can complete his task and go back to rest.

This trip to the Tang Sect, entrusted by Zhao Fangxu, was just a formality for him, as he already knew the plot... a minor role.

In his understanding, Zhao Fangxu knew that the Tang Clan had some major plans behind the scenes recently, and Tang Miaoxing also knew the purpose of Zhao Fangxu's arrangement for him to come.
