Soaring of Galaxia

"Have you not received the Chief’s communication spiritual talisman?" Qin Lan was stunned.

Now, Qin Wushuang had remembered that his identity as the core disciple had not been approved. Of course, he would not have access to the communication spiritual talisman.

He touched his nose with a bitter smile and just was about to let Qin Lan to go first. Suddenly, Elder Guan Qi’s figure dropped from the slope as he walked over in large strides: "Wushuang, I am just worried that you have not returned. The Chief issued the communication spiritual talisman and asks all Qin disciples above the core disciple level to go."

"Elder Guan Qi?" That Qin Lan looked at Elder Guan Qi with some astonishment. It seemed he never expected of how would Elder Guan Qi come to the Ascending Dragon Slope?

Elder Guan Qi said with a smile: "Qin Lan, you are next to Wushuang, in the future you guys must take care of each other."

Qin Lan said with a smile: "Of course, didn’t you see I was just inviting him to come to the Upright Morality Hall together?"

"Wushuang, let’s go, the Chief is waiting."

Now, Qin Wushuang had realized that he was part of it. He nodded and left with Guan Qi.

When they had arrived at the Upright Morality Hall, many core disciples had already arrived. In addition to a small portion that could not make it back, almost everyone had arrived.

This time, strangely it was an enormous group of people.

All twelve major Honored Warriors were present. In addition, there were hundreds of Elders and two to three hundred of core disciples.

These few hundreds of people had constituted to be the core layer of the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan at the Aspiring Throne Mountain. In other words, they were the elites on top of the pyramid.

As for the Guardians and below, they do not even qualify to enter the Upright Morality Hall.

After arranging Qin Wushuang into the side of the core disciples, Guan Qi had left to return to his side as an Elder. Guan Feng was also among the Elders. When he saw Qin Wushuang entered, he smiled at him lightly and nodded. Then, he shoot a glance at Elder Guan He with a subconscious mind.

Each of their gaze had appeared meaningful and full of significance.

Although Qin Wushuang had known the stories between these two, he retained a calm expression and pretended to not understand the implication within it.

Elder Guan Qi had clearly appeared to hold the identity as a butler of the Upright Morality Hall. After he had waited for the last few people to arrive, Guan Qi counted the numbers and walked into the middle. Then, he said with a clear voice: "Everyone, almost all is here. The two Chiefs are almost here! Let’s be quiet."

As soon as Elder Guan Qi finished speaking, Qin Yunran’s straightforward voice had emerged from outside the Upright Morality Hall: "Ha ha, I have not been back to the Upright Morality Hall for a while, it seems everyone is full of spirit, good good."

Qin Yunran and Qin Chongyang, these two major headshots walked in together.

Although the two Supreme Dao warriors had completely suppressed their Supreme Dao presence completely, the imposing manner carried by them walking in together was enough to silence the crowd.

People who were whispering beforehand had taken the initiative to stop talking. They watched the two major Chief walk to their chief throne.

Upon having sat down, Qin Yunran waved his hand: "Everyone just sit down, no need to restrain yourself."

Now everyone had finally sat down. When Qin Chongyang had walked in, he had been frowning slightly. He stood up and said: "Everyone, this time I have summoned all of you for, first of all, we need everyone to vote for a problem; secondly, it is to notify you some of the recent and important movements regarding the Heavenly Emperor Mountain."

Appearing to be concise and comprehensive, Qin Chongyang looked at Qin Wushuang and waved his hand: "Wushuang, come out."

Qin Wushuang walked up.

"Wushuang, you are a newcomer, many of the disciples here do not know you. Today we can use this chance to introduce you to everyone."

Qin Wushuang had cupped his fist into the other hand.

Those with higher-positions all nodded to acknowledge him. Those of the same level cupped their fists to return the gesture.

Qin Wushuang said with a smile: "I assume many of you already know Qin Wushuang’s name. Regarding his past achievements, those well-informed should have heard about it. Today we summoned you to let you cast a vote, regarding of awarding Qin Wushuang the title of the core disciple. Everyone can speak of your opinion. Us Qin Clan will never use dictatorship, for anyone are qualified to speak their mind."

After he had finished speaking, he transferred the topic to everyone with a smile.

"Third Chief, I think everyone would share almost identical opinion on this matter. I am afraid regarding the contribution made by Qin Wushuang, it’s impossible for majority of us to achieve it. Therefore, personally I completely endorse him entering the ranks of the core disciple. Even if he were to get promoted to the Honored Warrior and sit as equal as me, I will not oppose this idea, ha ha." The person who spoke was Honored Warrior Zhi Song, an elder with a straightforward personality.

Honored Warrior Zhi Song’s words had won many people’s acknowledgement. Since many core disciples had not acquired the information in time, all of them started to ask around.

After getting the explanation, they finally realized the many devilish things done by Qin Wushuang. Each of them inhaled a breath of cold air and looked at Qin Wushuang completely different from before.

"Third Chief, I think there is no need to consult for any opinion? This time, everyone’s opinion are well unified." Another Honored Warrior Zhi Yang also shouted.

Qin Chongyang laughed: "No other opinions?"

Although Elder Guan He was containing a smile on the corner of his mouth, he was looking at Honored Warrior Zhi Huai.

Honored Warrior Zhi Huai gave a light cough: "Third Chief, I do want to speak a few words."

"Oh? There is no harm in saying what you thinks."

After receiving Qin Chongyang’s nod of approval, Zhi Huai said as he was serious about the matter: "I heard about Qin Wushuang’s name. For what he had done, if it’s true, indeed it’s hard to come by. However, regarding of conferring him the title of the core disciple, per the old historical tradition, there should be an observation period. Even if we do not suspect Qin Wushuang’s abilities, in terms of his background, his whereabouts, his ins and outs of the matter should completely withstand the trial. Or else, it would be a small matter to give him the title of the core disciple, in case of a mistake, it would pose a great strike to the Qin Clan."

Zhi Huai’s words had received the light nod of approval from a several old and wise Honored Warriors. The other elders also nodded.

Although not many people had agreed with Zhi Huai, in the end there was a small handful.

Another elder that stood next to Guan He also opened his mouth to speak: "Honored Warrior speaks reasons. I also feel that everyone should get manipulated by a form of fervent emotions. Per the standard of the Qin Headquarter accepting core disciples, outside branch’s disciples need to undergo through an observation period of at least three years, at most ten to twenty years. After all, disciples from the branches of the Qin clan are not under the eyes of the Aspiring Throne Mountain. Their background is unclear."

"Yes, this Qin Wushuang had come from the human countries, an even more remote place. They had never communicated with the Qin headquarter. It appeared somewhat startled when he had appeared. I think it’s absolutely necessary to observe and investigate him thoroughly."

Qin Wushuang remained silent. Being the person involved in this affair, of course it would be inappropriate for him to argue for himself. Most importantly, he do not feel a strong commitment to the title of the core disciple.

At this moment, he thought the most of Elder Guan Feng’s repeated reminders and Qin Lan’s words. It seemst that the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan do not appear as unified as they had before the others.

Just when Qin Chongyang was about to speak, suddenly Elder Guan Feng stood up and walked next to Qin Wushuang directly. His complexion had been choked to appear somewhat swollen and reddish.

"Honored Warrior Zhi Huai, and Elders, if you are talking about how the rules of accepting core disciples needs them to undergo through an observation period, I have nothing to say. However, in terms of background, history, origin, I must speak my mind. Initially, Qin Wushuang’s ancestor Qin Yu is the closest to me. Heaven and Earth can proof for Qin Yu’s loyalty to the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan. Now, as his descendent is returning to the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, I would be bitterly disappointed if you are to judge on his background and history."

Honored Warrior Zhi Huai said lightly: "Qin Yu, of course many people here remembered him. However, when Qin Yu had left the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan, he did not leave uprightly and frankly right? No one could speak clearly of where exactly he had gone, and why he had left the Aspiring Throne Mountain."

Guan Feng’s complexion had become even more reddish as the blue veins appeared to almost bursting from his forehead. He said angrily: "Honored Warrior Zhi Huai, your position is higher than me, and it’s not that I wish to talk back to you. Initially, regarding of why Qin Yu left the Aspiring Throne Mountain, even if others have no clue, you should not be oblivious about it. Regarding of how did Qin Yu served the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan, you should talk while touching your conscience. Did the Qin Clan turned its back to him, or did Qin Yu turned his back to the clan?"

"This way, you feel the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan let down Qin Yu?"

Guan Feng said loudly: "I only know that disciples of the Qin Clan must gain the strength of character of the clan. When one speaks and behave with integrity, you must be worthy to your soul and conscience. I don’t have much skill, yet I have such conscience. If there is a problem with Qin Yu, and Qin Wushuang, I am willing to vouch with my life!"

These words had already displayed some hot-temper and make it appear to as a dispute.

However, the two major chief did not stop them for the cause of the problem was undistinguishable. They would never stop anyone from voicing their opinion.

A few Elders close to Guan Feng all walked up and said while acting as the mediator: "Elder Guan Feng, these were all old affairs that had passed for a few hundreds of years, no need to mention it? It will damage a good relationship."

Guan Feng’s personality was incredibly mediocre and well-behaved. It was apparent to see how much accumulated anger he had and how strong these angers had caused him to get angry.

Qin Wushuang took a deep inhale and said: "Everyone, please allow me to speak a word. I had make nothing of the hardship and came to the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan from a faraway land, because I admired the Qin Clan’s strength of character. Today if a dispute were to happen due to me, it’s not something I would wish. I am not determined to have the title of the core disciple. In my point of view, as long as I can make contributions for the Qin Clan within my capabilities, these vague names are of insignificance. It’s unlikely for me to not contain a title of the core disciple with my breadth of mind. Please stop quarreling. Time will prove for everything, right?"

Qin Wushuang’s stance were unexpected by everyone.

Suddenly, Qin Yunran who had not been speaking laughed: "Each of you quarreled with flush of anger, you don’t even compare to the breadth of mind of a young man."

"Ok, let me speak. We can postpone Qin Wushuang’s title as a core disciple. However, I will use my position as the chief to confer him the authority as the core disciple, he is eligible to enter the Ascending Dragon Slope and the Upright Morality Hall freely."

As soon as he spoke these words, it was the same of granting a pass for Qin Wushuang! No one would be qualified to question the seniority of the Second Chief, Qin Yunran!
