face break into a smile and reminded, "This king will give him a word in a while, pick an auspicious day to send the second miss over there. I hope she takes care of herself.""Thank you, Lord."After...Luo Li watched Feng Ling Xi walk towards him, the smile on his lips widening gradually. This ascension ceremony might not mean much to him, but for Feng Ling Xi, once she ascended, this Yao tribe would be entrusted to her care.

"Hold on."

Yao Zhi suddenly shouted, strode to Feng Lingxi's face, and bowed respectfully, saying, "Saintess, I just received news that the Saint Master is still alive, and she..."

"Elder Three, you should know what day it is today. And as for my mother still being alive, I've known about that for a long time."

Feng Lingxi coldly stared at Yao Zhi. He intervened at this time, wasn't he afraid that she would complete the ascension ceremony and become the Holy Lord later Then he would have no chance, right

Yao Zhi's eyes widened in surprise, but he quickly concealed it.

"Does the saintess know that the Lord is still alive Without passing on the throne, one cannot inherit the Lord's position"

Feng Lingxi's beautiful eyes raised slightly, she looked at Yao Zhi's smiling expression, her gaze falling on Luo Li.

"Chieftain, is this true"

With a slight nod, his handsome face was adorned with a faint smile. Gazing at Yao's triumphant expression, the coldness in his eyes deepened even further.

"If that's the case, why didn't the three elders say so earlier"

"My subordinates only just learned that the Holy Lord is still alive, so this enthronement ceremony..."

"Of course, it has to be done."

Feng Lingxi interrupted Yao Zhi's words, looking at the discontent in his eyes, a trace of coldness flashed across her eyes. She turned and brushed past him towards the altar. Yao Zhi hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her arm. As soon as he touched Feng Lingxi's sleeve, Shi Wu and Liu immediately stepped forward, drawing their swords to drive Yao Zhi back.

"Third Elder, please be mindful of your conduct."

Feng Lingxi glared coldly at Yao Zhi's hand as he retracted it, the coldness in her eyes deepening.

Yao Zhi stared at Feng Lingxi and suddenly turned to the Yao clan members behind him, shouting, “Clan people, come on, judge me. Am I right The Saint Lord is still alive, so the Sacred Maiden succeeding to the Saint Lord’s position doesn't count.”

"Yes!"

Suddenly, someone shouted from the crowd. The instigated tribesmen joined in, and for a moment, the sound was deafening. The scene shifted instantly, and they all declared that they could not accept the succession.

Yao Zhi had a smug expression on his face, looking at Feng Lingxi's icy gaze, "The Holy Maiden is so eager to ascend the throne, could it be that she doesn't even care about the life and death of her own birth mother"

"As the Third Elder just said, my mother is not dead. I also received news that she is still alive. However, the Third Elder may have forgotten how my mother fell off the cliff in the restricted area"

Feng Lingxi opened her mouth, her cold eyes swept across the clansmen below. Those eyes were like daggers, piercing through those who supported Yao Zhi. Each of these people with ulterior motives, when met with her gaze, lowered their heads and dared not look into her eyes.

Yao Zhi looked at his people, his eyes fearless.

"Since we're talking about the Lord Saint, I'll be bold and ask a question. Since your mother betrayed the clan, have you, as her daughter, lost your right to inherit the position of Lord Saint"

Yao Zhi's words were very resolute as he looked at the clansmen below.

"You say, I'm right, don't I The Holy Lord has rebelled against the clan. If her daughter inherits the position of the Holy Lord, wouldn't she also follow in rebellion Then our Yao Clan would be in danger."

Once Yao Zhi spoke, his heart of rebellion was clearly revealed to all.

Filled with righteous indignation, she was practically spitting fire. To put it bluntly, she wanted to ruin her ascension ceremony and take this opportunity to drive her out of the Yao Clan as well.

He was so brave that he didn't even care about the chief, Luo Li.

"Does the chieftain feel the same way"

Feng Lingxi suddenly asked Luoli, who was shocked and looked back at Feng Lingxi, “The words of the third elder seem to make sense. As the chieftain, I should be fair and just.”

Feng Lingxi curled her lips into a sneer, looking at Luo Li. "So, the clan leader also thinks that the Third Elder is right Then why did he let me inherit the position of Saint Master of Yaozu in the first place Is this grand ceremony just to embarrass me, or are you trying to take advantage of the situation to get rid of me"

When Yao Zhi heard Luoli's words and knew that everyone was on his side, the tribal army had already arrived at Yaozhong's gate. Now, he was fearless.

"Your mother betrayed our clan, and since you are her daughter, you cannot remain."

Yao Zhi's words were no longer restrained, he bowed respectfully towards Luo Li, "Clan Leader, according to clan rules, she is not eligible to inherit the position of Holy Master, and even more so, she cannot remain. Don't you agree"

Luo Li looked at Yao Zhi's eyes, a figure quickly ran to Luo Li's side, leaned into his ear and said a few words. Luo Li's smile gradually disappeared, looking at Yao Zhi in surprise, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Chief, am I right"

Feng Lingxi noticed Luo Li's change. It seemed to be working according to their agreement. Yao Zhi had already controlled all of Luo Li's people. No wonder he was so arrogant now, he was indeed someone who wanted to do great things. This speed was really fast.

"Elder Three, you never intended for me to inherit the position of Holy Master from the beginning. Today's enthronement ceremony was all a scheme you deliberately designed, just to catch me and eliminate future threats, wasn't it"

"Alright, today's enthronement ceremony wasn't meant for you at all. Your mother betrayed the clan, and you have no right to sit on the position of Yao Clan Saint Master."

With a wave of his hand, Yao Zhi commanded the Yaozhi tribe members to surge out of the crowd. Thousands of warriors surrounded them, swords drawn and facing their enemies.

Feng Lingxi looked at everything before her, not panicking in the slightest.

"Third Elder, now it is you who has betrayed us, not I."

"The Lord has betrayed, and the Holy Maiden was born of the Lord. She should be executed to prevent future harm. I implore the chieftain to speak and punish this traitorous daughter, Feng Lingxi."

Yao Zhi spoke, his eyes carrying a heavy warning. Luo Li stood up. Facing Yao Zhi's warning gaze, he swept his eyes over the clan members present, seemingly without any surprise.

"Let the chieftain punish Feng Lingxi, the daughter who betrayed the clan."

The Elder Six stepped forward first, leading the cheers. Seeing this, the other clansmen also joined in.

"Elder Six, what do you mean Does the Holy Lord truly betray our clan The Third Elder knows the truth. I believe it's not the Holy Lord who betrays us, but Yao Zhi, who has always coveted his position."

Yao Yi angrily retorted, meeting Yao Zhi's warning gaze without a shred of fear.

"Elder Two, don't you forget how the Grand Elder died. The Holy Lord betrayed the clan; everyone in the clan knows it. When Feng Lingxi arrived at the Yao Clan, relying on the clan leader's favor, what did she do Have you also forgotten Since she is the Holy Maiden, why are we unable to even see her She simply doesn't regard us as anything. To her, the Yao Clan is nothing more than a dowry she sold to the Empress of the Great Yuan Dynasty to please them."

Yao Zhiyue spoke louder and louder, watching as the villagers fell silent.

"As you all know, Feng Lingxi was able to be so beloved by the Empress Dowager during the Yuan Dynasty because she handed over our Yao Clan's treasures without hesitation. She showed no regard for our Yao Clan at all. I ask you, if we allowed her to become the Saint Sovereign, would our Yao Clan still be our Yao Clan"hen she was five years old and remained mentally impaired for over ten years. She's not skilled in music, calligraphy, painting, or poetry. Even her own mother wouldn't entrust her with treatment. How...
