The Hunted Hunter
Chapters 222. Elder Pho Hong Becomes the Great Elder
In the main hall of the Fire Phoenix sect, all the higher-ups were now present at that place.
The patriarch stood up and started the meeting.
"The elders of the sect that I respect and take pride in! We have a meeting this time to discuss how we will move forward to run and rebuild our sect after experiencing the incident just now."
"First of all, of course, we must thank the swordsman Ma Guang who has helped us to expel members of the Fire Phoenix sect so that the loss of life on our side does not increase anymore". Said the patriarch while pointing towards Ma Guang so that everyone present could find out the newly mentioned figure.
All eyes immediately looked towards a young swordsman who was sitting also inside the hall room.
"So this young man who injured the patriarch of the Black Demon sect!?".
"It still looks very young, but its cultivation level is already at the earth god warrior stage! Very genius!".
The elders continued to issue opinions when they saw the figure of Ma Guang.
The patriarch continued his words. "And need all of you to remember, from this moment on, the entire Fire Phoenix sect members should not be in the slightest to offend the Heavenly Dragon sect or even the Yellow Bamboo sect, either, because the warrior Ma Guang came from the sect".
"And if you see that a disciple or member of the two sects is in trouble and in need of help, you should not hesitate to help him".
"Ready! We will always remember and will do what the patriarch has commanded". Cried all the elders present in the room.
"The incident that befell our sect this time, it will be a lesson for all of us, that wanting to rule in a bad way is something that will harm us all".
"Therefore, from this moment on, the rules of the sect will be even more resolute, in order that, what the ancestors instilled to be the basis of the mind and the purpose of our sect will survive to the next generation".
"Will anyone ask?". The Patriarch's words gave the elders a chance to ask.
"Patriarchal genie!". Called an elder.
"Please if there is something you want to say or ask". Welcoming patriarch.
"Right now the position of the great elder is empty, it's good that the patriarch can already appoint someone to fill the position". Said an elder giving advice to the patriarch.
"For that matter, I have to think about it first, because the elders that are in our sect right now, are, I do not think there is a proper person to serve as a great elder who can replace Me when I am not in this sect or substitute Me as a representative of this sect". The patriarch answered the question of an elder.
Hearing the patriarch's words, a high-level elder immediately raised his hand to ask the patriarch for time.
"Please elder Yeshe!". Said the patriarch to allow the high-level elder to speak.
"Patriaks! I think there is one proper figure to serve as a great elder". Said elder Yeshe.
"According to elder Yeshe, who is it!?". The patriarch asked in support of the words of elder Yeshe.
"I think the right person to serve as the great elder is elder Pho Hong!". Said Elder Yeshe with great zeal and certainty.
After elder Yeshe mentioned the figure worthy of being the grand elder, the entire higher-ups in the room, their attitude was immediately extremely enthusiastic.
Many elders agreed on the words of elder Yeshe to designate elder Pho Hong as the new great elder of the sect.
Seeing the situation, elder Pho Hong immediately stood up and wanted to explain the true situation.
As elder Pho Hong stood up, the situation that had originally been very lively now returned to calm.
"Chairman Yeshe and the elders! What the elder Yeshe had said, the patriarch had also personally told Me, but I rejected it myself, for I was not yet able to bear that responsibility". Said elder Pho Hong.
Before elder Pho Hong continued saying, he said, elder Yeshe had already spoken again to cut off the words of elder Pho Hong.
"Agree!". Shouted simultaneously all the elders present.
"I totally agree!". Shouted one of the high-level elders.
"Yes! I agree if elder Pho Hong becomes a grand elder". Shouted another high-level elder.
Elder Pho Hong could not continue anymore he said.
The old man now simply sat back down and handed it over to the patriarch Huang Siwei.
The Patriarch stood up again as his hands signaled for everything to calm down.
The situation in the room was calm again and the patriarch spoke up immediately.
"The elders, it's true what the elder Pho Hong said earlier, so that's why I no longer want to impose that position on elder Pho Hong".
"But since at this moment, the elders all wanted the position filled so badly by elder Pho, then I also gladly agreed to it as well and stated...".
Patriarch Huang Siwei was unable to continue his words as elder Pho Hong directly interrupted his words. "Before I apologized deeply - deeply to the patriarch and also to the elders! I don't accept the position of course also has a strong reason, and the reason is because of me...."
Before elder Pho Hong revealed the reason why he had rejected the position of grand elder, Ma Guang immediately cut off the old man's words. "Chairman Pho Hong! Sorry in advance for interrupting the elder's words!". Ma Guang said as he stood up and cupped his hands. After that the young man then continued his self-intention that cut off the words of elder Pho Hong.
"Patriak, Pho Hong's elder and the elders, because at this time of discussion I am also together - just like all of you in this place, so I want to also ask for time and opportunity to talk..Can I be given time and opportunity to talk?". Ma Guang said as he asked to give him a chance to talk.
"What do you think of the elders?". Ask the patriarch Huang Siwei.
"Yes! Please swordsman Ma speak". At once the elders spoke.
"Please swordsman Ma!". Said the patriarch Huang Siwei as his hand gestured to let Ma Guang speak.
"All right! Before that, of course, I thank the patriarchs and elders who have given Me the opportunity to speak.Old Pho! After I heard all the words of the elders and also because I myself had listened to the reason why elder Pho Hong rejected the position while talking to patriarch Huang, so in my opinion, I will, elder Pho Hong was very apt to occupy a position as a great elder in this sect! Elder Pho Hong was currently already a part of this Fire Phoenix sect, and was already like a family to the elders as well as to the sect disciples, so for the past masala that elder Pho faced, it was like a family for the elders, let's just say it will also be a matter for this sect, should elder Pho stare to walk forward together with this sect so that this sect in the future can become bigger and stronger again".
"Once again I apologize to elder Pho Hong for being a person who was much younger than elder Pho but had been presumptuous to give a little advice". Ma Guang closed his words as he sat back down.
Elder Pho Hong who heard the words and apologies from Ma Guang immediately responded to the words of the young man.
"Backer Ma need not hesitate like that, what the swordsman Ma said there is a point too, so the advice of the swordsman Ma and also the wishes of the patriarch and also the elders, all of you, so that at this moment I accept the position of the great elder.and for this trust, I am very grateful!". Close elder Pho Hong while bowing and cupping his hands.
The patriarch stood up and asked again. "Do you want anyone else to ask?". Ask the patriarch again.
After a while no one gave a response, the patriarch immediately set a time for the confirmation of elder Pho Hong as the grand elder.
After that the patriarch immediately closed the meeting, so that the elders present one by one began to leave the hall room.
Ma Guang immediately said goodbye to the patriarch, elder Pho Hong, elder Sangyal and also elder Sai Kam to continue his journey to the central continent.
The four sect leaders immediately disowned even with a heavy heart, because they also had tried to have Ma Guang postpone his trip first and temporarily settle in the Fire Phoenix sect.
Ma Guang finally darted away leaving the fire Phoenix sect in a flying manner.
The young man had already gotten a lot of information from elder Pho Hong about how the situation and conditions in the central continent were.
