Chapter 365: Seniority Was Determined by One’s Strength

“It’s a bit inappropriate to call him the Holy Son at this mont,” Elder Chen said, shaking his head. He had once served as Su Chen’s Dao protector. Over the past few years, his strength had significantly improved, reaching the late stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm. He even appeared much younger. If he hadn’t spoken just now, Su Chen would have almost failed to recognize this middle-aged man who appeared to be in his thirties, standing by his side, as his forr Dao protector.

“Alright.” The Great Mystery Holy Lord waved his sleeves, glancing at Su Chen. “Now that the matter of Wind Fall Valley is completely resolved, let’s proceed to the hall to discuss other matters.”

“Hmm.” Su Chen nodded in agreent. He then followed the elders to the Holy Lord Hall. Once inside, he found a seat and sat down.

“Now that the Holy Son has returned, we can proceed with our previous discussions,” the Great Mystery Holy Lord announced. He turned his gaze towards Su Chen and continued, “Holy Son, we have decided to appoint you as the Supre Elder of the Great Mystery Sacred Sect. How do you feel about this?”

Su Chen had just picked up a cup of tea when he heard this. His movents briefly paused, and he furrowed his brows. He looked at the Great Mystery Holy Lord with disbelief in his eyes.

“Supre Elder?”

“That’s right.” The Great Mystery Holy Lord nodded, explaining, “I discussed this matter with the elders not long ago, and no one had any objections. However, I wasn’t sure of your thoughts…”

Su Chen fell silent. He had considered the situation before returning. With his current cultivation and status, it was clear that he naturally couldn’t take on the position of the Holy Son. Throughout the continent, there had never been a Saint Realm powerhouse serving as a Holy Son. His plan was to beco an elder. Of course, it was just a nominal position.

After all, he needed to frequently appear in the public eye. Only by doing so could they continuously brag about him to boost his reputation and influence. However, he hadn’t expected the elders and the Holy Lord to want him to beco the Supre Elder.

If this happened, he would be one of the two most authoritative figures in the Great Mystery Sacred Sect, with trendous power. He would be even more influential than the Holy Lord himself in certain situations.

After a mont of silence, Su Chen raised his head and glanced at the people in the hall. He chuckled and said, “Since the elders and the Holy Lord have already decided, then I’ll respectfully accept it.”

In comparison to being an ordinary elder, the position of Supre Elder was more appealing to him.

The Holy Lord and the elders had already made arrangents for him, and unless he were insane, he wouldn’t delay his acceptance.

In the future, as the Supre Elder representing the Great Mystery Sacred Sect when traveling, he would receive much better treatnt than ordinary elders.

In the Great Mystery Sacred Sect, there were nurous elders, but only one Supre Elder. Now, there were two, including himself.

“Well…” The Great Mystery Holy Lord and the other elders quickly stood up, bowing respectfully to Su Chen. “Greetings, Supre Elder!”

This appointnt elevated him to a position comparable to a retired emperor in mortal dynasties, while the Holy Lord could be likened to an emperor in the traditional sense. Su Chen had indeed beco the Supre Elder. Despite their previous relationship as Su Chen’s elders, they had to accept their new roles.

Although they felt a bit awkward when they initially stood up and bowed, everyone quickly adjusted. In the world of cultivation, seniority was determined by one’s strength, not age.

With Su Chen now a Saint Realm powerhouse, his authority was indisputable. Moreover, having Su Chen as Supre Elder greatly increased the sect’s overall strength. When they ventured outside, they would speak with much more authority.

“No need for such formalities,” Su Chen said, raising his hand.

“Supre Elder, please don’t be concerned. Due to a backlog of matters, many rituals and ceremonies have yet to be prepared. We will make them up at a later date,” the Holy Lord said in a deep voice.

“We can address these formalities at a more convenient ti,” Su Chen added, slightly shaking his head.

With that, he waved his hand. In an instant, beams of divine light appeared and landed in front of the elders.

“These are tokens of my appreciation. Elders, please accept them,” Su Chen said. Over the years, he had gathered many valuable items. As the Supre Elder, he felt it was only fitting to bestow these gifts.

Su Chen was no longer interested in pills, spirit stones, and cultivation thods; he was focused on advancing his own cultivation. Giving these items to the Great Mystery Sacred Sect made more sense.

“Uh… Thank you, Supre Elder!”

The elders, upon seeing this, had originally intended to decline. Upon seeing what was in the divine light, they quickly accepted the gifts. Each of them felt a deep sense of gratitude. Previously, they had only heard about their Holy Son’s…no, their Supre Elder’s generosity. Now they were experiencing it firsthand.

“I also have so cultivation thods and heaven-level divine powers that can be placed in the Scripture Pavilion for the disciples and elders of the sect to cultivate.”

Su Chen once again tossed a storage ring, which landed in front of the Great Mystery Holy Lord. This storage ring contained the heritage of the Spiritual Race accumulated over tens of thousands of years.

It could be said that this ring, no matter whose hands it fell into, could quickly establish a force that was not weaker than the Great Mystery Sacred Sect. It might even create a force that surpassed the Great Mystery Sacred Sect! The things in this ring were of no use to Su Chen anymore, so he might as well give it to the Great Mystery Sacred Sect to enhance its foundation.

“Supre Elder… Isn’t this a bit too valuable?” The Great Mystery Holy Lord was excited, holding the storage ring and at a loss for words.

“This is not for you but for the entire Great Mystery Sacred Sect. There’s no need to decline.”

“Then, on behalf of the disciples and elders of the entire Great Mystery Sacred Sect, thank you, Supre Elder!” the Great Mystery Holy Lord said respectfully.

At this mont, the Great Mystery Holy Lord couldn’t help but feel that his previous investnts in Su Chen had been wise choices. He had received a return on his investnt that was tens of thousands of tis greater. He also felt a deep sense of gratitude toward the Su family of Tianyang City. With such an outstanding successor to their family, they didn’t keep him for their own nurturing but instead sent him to the Great Mystery Sacred Sect..
