Chapter 307: Heavy Burden
It was already late at night, but the lights in Xue Qianhe's room were still on.
The room was packed with people, all of whom were his close disciples who had followed him for many years, and his daughter Xue Qingrou was naturally among them. However, among these people, there was only one important person missing, and that was Xue Qianhe's son-in-law Slow Sword.
God Hu Daiwei. In other words, Hu Daiwei has never taken fault of his father-in-law, and it seems to be the same today.
Xue Qianhe and his daughter were sitting in front of the round table, with Liao Changyan, Kuang Mingyu and other Kunlun disciples standing behind them.
There are three things placed on the round table, the leader's token of the Kunlun sect, the leader's sword and the account book.
Although Xue Qianhe is greedy for money, he is not a very bad-hearted person after all, and he has not done any evil things that are harmful to the world. Of course, he did not do it properly in robbing the court official's money, but there are also some who were bewitched by others.
Element.
The atmosphere in the room is more solemn, even worse than that in the main hall during the day. In this small room, the simplest head handover ceremony in the history of the Kunlun Sect will be held. If it is a normal change of head, the Kunlun Sect will definitely
They will worship heaven and ancestors with great fanfare and make it very grand.
However, Xue Qianhe's abdication was simply forced and even a bit shameful. Before that, Xue Qingrou was just Hu Daiwei's wife and had never participated in any affairs of the Kunlun Sect. She was not ready to take over as the leader of the Kunlun Sect.
Door.
Because the Guanyin case was exposed, Xue Qianhe had to accept the trial of the court, so the huge Kunlun sect fell upon his only daughter Xue Qingrou in an instant. In fact, Xue Qianhe could also pass the leadership to his big brother
Disciple Liao Changyan, but Xue Qianhe knew in his heart that Liao Changyan was not only of low ability, but also impetuous, and was not suitable to be the leader of a sect at all. If the Kunlun sect was really handed over to him, it would definitely become a leader in a few years.
decline.
Xue Qingrou's shoulders are too tender and she seems unable to bear the heavy burden, but fortunately she also has a good husband, a stalwart man who can give her unlimited protection. Although Hu Daiwei doesn't like his father-in-law Xue Qianhe very much, he treats his wife Xue Qingrou
But she has always been caring and caring. If Xue Qingrou takes over as the head of the Kunlun Sect, Hu Daiwei will never let her face this extremely dangerous world alone.
"Rou'er, after you take over these three things, you will become the head of Kunlun. From now on, you must be prudent in everything you do, and you must put the overall situation of the Kunlun sect first. Qiancheng, don't imitate me." Xue Qianhe warned again and again.
"Dad, how can I bear to let you face all this alone! I want to go to Beijing with you to beg the emperor and prince for mercy." Xue Qingrou sobbed.
"Silly girl, every grievance has its owner, and every debt has its owner. This matter was originally my father's fault. He listened to others' greedy words for a while, which resulted in the death of so many innocent people. He deserves it. You can come to Beijing with me, but
You don't have to ask for mercy from the emperor!" Xue Qianhe looked at her daughter and smiled bitterly, seeming to think her daughter was a little silly.
However, Xue Qianhe agreed to let his daughter accompany him to the capital for another reason. The court had already ordered that a martial arts conference be held in the name of the court in the capital. At that time, any martial arts master could go to the capital to compete for the title of leader of the martial arts alliance.
Position. The Kunlun sect is one of the nine traditional sects in the martial arts world. Although no one can compete for the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance, they must not miss this rare martial arts event that is rare in a century.
In the past, the conferences were organized voluntarily by various sects in the martial arts community after consultation. However, this time the court suddenly held a martial arts conference in the name of the government, which left many people in the martial arts community a little confused.
"Does dad still want his daughter to compete for the leader of the martial arts alliance?" Xue Qingrou is very smart and has already guessed his father's other meaning.
"Haha! You don't have the ability to fight for the leadership of the martial arts alliance, but it's still good to go and see the world." Xue Qianhe said with a bitter smile.
"Master, why don't we secretly kill the three people from the fifth row tonight, and then escape to another place together without being bothered by the cowardly officials." Liao Changyan thought for a long time and finally came up with a bad idea.
"In this way, the Kunlun lineage will no longer exist in Jianghu. Is this the result you want to see?" Xue Qianhe retorted.
Liao Changyan also felt that his idea was inappropriate, but he could not think of a better idea and did not know how to answer the master's words.
Although Xue Qianhe is greedy for money, he is still a loving father and a leader who loves the Kunlun Sect. There is no doubt about these two points.
"Put it away!" Seeing that her daughter was still hesitating, Xue Qianhe handed the three things to her hand.
For the leader of the Kunlun Sect, these three things are naturally very precious. Needless to say, the token and the sword are all tokens passed down by the ancestors of the past generations. As for the account book, there was no need to hand it over, but Xue Qianhe took it upon himself to
Since becoming the leader, he has accumulated countless gold and silver treasures for the Kunlun Sect. Now that he has no use for these things, he naturally has to give them to his daughter.
Xue Qingrou hesitated for a moment and finally accepted these three things.
"See the new head." Upon seeing this, Liao Changyan quickly saluted Xue Qingrou, the new head.
"Okay! That's it! You go back first! I want to be alone for a while." Xue Qianhe breathed a long sigh of relief, as if the stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.
After Xue Qingrou took these three things, she still felt unsure, so she wanted to discuss it with her husband Hu Daiwei. Xue Qingrou took the things back to the room and put them away, but she did not see her husband Hu Daiwei.
"It's so late, why aren't you back? Where have you been?" Xue Qingrou always had a vague feeling that her husband's behavior these past few days was a bit suspicious, his comings and goings were always mysterious, and even she couldn't figure out what he was doing.
What.
Although she thought so, she didn't think about it carefully. After all, her husband was a great swordsman who lived all over the world. He was probably not used to hiding with her on the Kunlun Mountains every day.
She closed the door and went out. She even asked several of her fellow apprentices, but they all said, "I have never seen my uncle."
return.
Xue Qingrou is not worried that Hu Daiwei will encounter any danger. With his martial arts, others will only be in danger when they meet him.
She was just curious. It was the first time for her husband to come to Kunlun Mountain and he had no friends at all. How could he not come back after being away for so long? Could there be some other reason for this?
Xue Qingrou thought this way, and then searched all the way down the mountain road, but there was still no trace of Hu Daiwei. Now Xue Qingrou finally began to have doubts.
"Where did he go?" Xue Qingrou said to herself anxiously.
While she was panicking, she suddenly heard voices coming from the woods beside the mountain road, like two people talking.
