Chapter 371 - 371 358 The New Alliance Leader in Su Hongs

Chapter 371: Chapter 358: The New Alliance Leader in Su Hong’s Heart Chapter 371: Chapter 358: The New Alliance Leader in Su Hong’s Heart Just after dusk, the Mutant Winged Dragon had led his group away. Once the Mutant Winged Dragon left with his people, Qiao Fanfeng hurriedly sought out Guo Mingyu. They didn’t know whether the Mutant Winged Dragon planned to return to Dragon Slayer Island or had a different target in mind.

Whether they genuinely wanted to go back to Dragon Slayer Island or had chosen another target, or even devised some other scheme, the people of the Immortal City couldn’t allow the Mutant Winged Dragon to leave with the members of the Dragon Slaying Clan. As long as these people existed, they would be a menace, possibly returning at any time to wreak havoc on the Central Plains or potentially choosing a different target and plot.

Immortal City should come up with ways to face this situation. Both men believed they couldn’t let them return to Dragon Slayer Island since if they didn’t, they would stay and create chaos in the Central Plains. The people of the Immortal City should devise a plan to deal with these demons. To do so, they needed a leader who could plan strategically and command respect from everyone.

Presently, Su Hong was severely injured and wouldn’t recover soon. In the past few days, even though Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu were in charge, they both knew they didn’t have the capability to lead the Immortal City. They thought of someone, someone who could lead the people of Immortal City to defeat the Dragon Slaying Clan.

Therefore, Qiao Fanfeng sought out Guo Mingyu to discuss with Su Hong.

Upon hearing this, Su Hong fully agreed. They all thought Ye Chen was the right person for the job. Besides his martial arts, his wisdom had been pivotal in destroying the Demon God and driving back the Dragon Clan. Therefore, Su Hong instantly agreed.

The situation was becoming urgent. They didn’t know what sort of mayhem the Dragon Slaying Clan would cause after descending the mountain. They were determined to make arrangements as soon as possible. The next morning, they decided to appoint Ye Chen as the new Alliance Leader, with him commanding everyone against the Dragon Slaying Clan.

However, they did not anticipate that Immortal City disciples returning from the mountain foot in the middle of the night would bring news that Ye Chen was the son of the Mutant Winged Dragon. This forced Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu to find Su Hong again.

Su Hong had no choice but to reveal the truth to them.

But Qiao Fanfeng was somewhat worried and said, “Sect Leader, if the people of Immortal City all learn that Ye Chen is the son of the Mutant Winged Dragon, it might affect his becoming the new Alliance Leader.”

Su Hong fell silent upon hearing this.

Guo Mingyu added, “Even though we firmly believe in Ye Chen’s abilities, not everyone can accept him like us, especially if there’s a chance for Ye Chen to confront the Mutant Winged Dragon. Can Ye Chen really be ruthless enough to kill his own father?”

Su Hong was at a loss for words at this remark.

Qiao Fanfeng said, “Yes, there’s indeed no one more suitable than Ye Chen for the position of Alliance Leader. However, if Ye Chen truly becomes the Alliance Leader, he would have to confront whether or not he can bring himself to kill his own father when the time comes.”

Su Hong lifted his head and asked, “Then what do you think we should do?”

Guo Mingyu proposed, “If there’s really a chance to kill the Mutant Winged Dragon, let either of us do it.”

Qiao Fanfeng glanced at Guo Mingyu, slightly nodding, “In any case, I know that Ye Chen is the only choice for Alliance Leader, but I worry if everyone else knows about this, will they still agree to let Ye Chen be our Alliance Leader?”

Guo Mingyu responded, “The news seems to have already spread out now. If they all know the truth, they might not trust Ye Chen as much.”

The Sect Leader of Immortal City, Su Hong, decided, “No matter what, let’s say it’s a plot by the Mutant Winged Dragon and deny that it’s true. We’ll let Ye Chen keep quiet about it too, and only talk about it after we’ve eliminated the Mutant Winged Dragon.”

Vice Sect Leader of Immortal City, Qiao Fanfeng, asked, “Can we really do that?”

Su Hong responded, “Now, not many people know the truth. All we need is for Ye Chen to keep quiet about it.”

Demon Palace Master, Guo Mingyu suggested, “When the time comes, let’s just boost him up to the position. As Alliance Leader, he will lead us in the fight against the Dragon Slaying Clan. We can assist him, especially in dealing with Mutant Winged Dragon. We can discuss it between ourselves then. Either of us won’t go easy with this.”

Su Hong nodded in agreement to this.

Qiao Fanfeng said, “Then we should inform Ye Chen about this, hold our end of the conversation from both sides, and then when the time comes, and as long as Ye Chen doesn’t admit it, we’ll push him forward then.”

Su Hong replied, “Fine. Let’s arrange it this way. You two go and explain tomorrow’s plan to Ye Chen.”

By this time, it was already midnight. Ye Chen was chatting with Li Mo when Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu suddenly entered, startling Ye Chen.

Guo Mingyu asked, “Yu Yun, why are you staying here?” He had always thought that Yu Yun should be staying with Shi Zi and the others.

Yu Yun quickly explained, “Shi Zi’s place was wrecked. They all moved to the back. Since Ye Chen had a spare room, I moved in here. After all, we shouldn’t waste it when there are many people who don’t have a place to stay.”

Ye Chen quickly retorted, “That’s not true at all. She couldn’t find anyone to play with her at Shi Zi’s place, so she had to come over here and latch onto me.”

“Nonsense! Who latched onto you!” Yu Yun grew flustered.

Ye Chen quickly dodged aside.

“Stop disturbing them here. You’re not a child anymore, but a grown girl. What kind of decorum is this indeed?” said Guo Mingyu.

Ye Chen added, “Right, what decorum indeed?”

Yu Yun was so angry she couldn’t speak.

Ye Chen asked, “Elders, is there any reason for you to come here so late?”

Qiao Fanfeng responded, “Indeed, there is an important matter.”

When he spoke, he glanced at Li Mo.

Ye Chen quickly asked Li Mo to step outside.

“What is it that I can’t hear?” Yu Yun squinted at her father Guo Mingyu, seeming unwilling to leave.

But, she didn’t dare defy her father’s order and had no choice but to leave for the bedroom.

Qiao Fanfeng said, “Do you know that people outside have already started spreading that you’re the son of the Mutant Winged Dragon?”

“Li Mo has already told me this. It’s hardly a secret anymore.”

Qiao Fanfeng nodded and said, “Alright, I will not beat around the bush.”

“Good, I don’t like beating around the bush.”

“Here’s the thing, tomorrow we want to nominate you as the new Alliance Leader.”

“You can’t be serious!”

“Sect Leader Su is injured and, in all probability, is unable to command the Immortal City and Demon Palace now. We thought of you; you’re the most suitable.”

“Don’t say that. I am just a small sect leader of the New City Sect; not someone from the Immortal City or Demon Domain. How could I possibly become the Alliance Leader?”

Guo Mingyu explained, “The important thing is your ability. We have all seen it. Right now, the people of the Dragon Slaying Clan either flee or have other plans. But no matter what, the people of Immortal City and Demon Domain need to eliminate them and need someone to organize it. We believe you are the best candidate.”

Ye Chen lightly smiled, saying, “How could I be the best candidate?”

“You are indeed the best candidate. We have discussed it with Sect Leader Su. We all want you to become the new Alliance Leader by tomorrow and lead us against the Dragon Slaying Clan.”

Ye Chen was a little dumbfounded after listening.

“You’re the best choice. You’re diligent and cautious in your work, and your martial arts skills are superb. Plus, you’ve helped us get rid of the Demon God.”

Qiao Fanfeng added, “The current problem is that the news of you being the son of the Mutant Winged Dragon has reached Immortal City. I bet a lot of people already know. We’re worried that this will affect your becoming the Alliance Leader, so we came to tell you not to admit that you’re the son of the Mutant Winged Dragon.”

Ye Chen raised his head and asked, “Can it really work?”

“Right now, the main matter at hand is to deal with the Dragon Slaying Clan. You know well what kind of a person your father is. We don’t know when he will turn another sect into Wasteland City. Do you not want to avenge the disciples of New City Sect who died?”

“But do you really believe that I can fight against my father?”

“We trust you. We’ve seen all that you have done these days. I believe that you know what is right. You will stand on the side of justice.”

“Is this Sect Leader Su’s suggestion?”

“Yes, we all think that you becoming the Alliance Leader is the best option. But to prevent any influence due to you being the son of the Mutant Winged Dragon, we want you to keep it a secret for now.”

“Can it really be kept a secret?”

“Right now, not many truly know the truth. It’s just us. If we keep quiet and you deny it, we can promote you to become the Alliance Leader.”

But Ye Chen said, “I don’t think it’s a good idea.”

“Just don’t say anything tomorrow. We’ll push you forward.” Said Qiao Fanfeng.

Ye Chen replied, “Actually, I don’t have to become the Alliance Leader to help Immortal City and the Demon Domain.” He seemed worried.

Qiao Fanfeng persisted, “Just listen to us. You don’t need to say anything tomorrow, just wait for us to announce you as the Alliance Leader.”

But Ye Chen was still not convinced.

“Are you worried that you don’t have the resolve?” Qiao Fanfeng asked.

“I was thinking, everybody will eventually know my identity. This might not turn out well. I’m not originally from the Immortal City or the Demon Domain, and with this identity, people may have objections.”

“No worries, just do what you need to do.”

Soon, Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu convinced Ye Chen.

In the middle of the night, two people, Feng Nianmei and Su Zhanze, had just overheard their father discussing tomorrow’s matters with Qiao Fanfeng and the others.

“Mother, why are you looking for me so late?”

“Nothing in particular, just that your father is planning to let Ye Chen replace him as Alliance Leader tomorrow morning, leading the people of Immortal City and the Demon Domain against the Dragon Slaying Clan.”

“Really? But he’s from the New City Sect, also a monster from the Dragon Slaying Clan!”

“Yes, that’s what I said too. But your father is insistent on doing this.”

“Those people are definitely going to object! How can they let the son of the Mutant Winged Dragon be the Alliance Leader of the Immortal City and Demon Domain?”

“Your father intends to make Ye Chen deny it and not admitting that he is from the Dragon Slaying Clan. He wants him to become the Alliance Leader first.” Explained Feng Nianmei.

“Don’t worry, I won’t let him become our Alliance Leader. I get mad every time I think about what’s happened these past few days. He’s gained too much attention, with everyone only talking about him.”
