Chapter 129: Chief Acolyte

At this moment, not only was Su Jingzhen nervous, but all the spectators present had also caught a glimpse of what was to come.

They felt that Luo Yuebai’s announcement of the third matter would be somewhat extraordinary.

However, Luo Yuebai didn’t choose to keep them in suspense.

Immediately, she said, “The third matter, our sect announces the appointment of Su Jingzhen as the Chief Acolyte of our Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang branch!”

“He will enjoy the authority equivalent to that of a Vice Sect Master!”

As soon as Luo Yuebai spoke these words, the entire square fell silent.

Even Feng Qingya, who was next to Su Jingzhen, was shocked.

She had already guessed that Luo Yuebai would stir up something with Su Jingzhen.

But she never expected that she would have the audacity to directly appoint Su Jingzhen as the Chief Acolyte of the Evil Moon Sect.

And it wasn’t just the Chief Acolyte position.

The most important thing was the statement that he would enjoy the authority of a Vice Sect Master!

This… on the surface, it seemed like they were appointing Su Jingzhen as an acolyte, just to have his name associated with the Evil Moon Sect.

But in reality, they were making Su Jingzhen the Vice Sect Master of this Linjiang branch.

“As expected of the Saintess of the demonic sect, such boldness is truly extraordinary.”

Even Feng Qingya couldn’t help but marvel at this moment.

At the same time, she compared herself in her mind. Could she achieve this level of audacity?

Just for a second, she forced a bitter smile upon herself.

Even though she dared to directly appoint Su Jingzhen as the Deputy Pavilion Master of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion in private, she seemed to lack the authority to do so now.

Su Jingzhen himself was dumbfounded once again.

He couldn’t even react for a moment.

Chief Acolyte, Vice Sect Master?

Wasn’t this a joke?

“Friend Su, when I spoke to you privately, you said you needed a formal invitation.”

“Now, at this establishment celebration in front of all the guests present, our sect has made it public.”

“Friend Su should be able to feel my sincerity, right?”

Before Su Jingzhen could speak, Luo Yuebai smiled at him again.

As she said this, there was a hint of cunning in Luo Yuebai’s eyes.

Su Jingzhen was dumbfounded once again.

When did you speak to me privately?

When did I say I needed a formal invitation?

He never expected that someone of Luo Yuebai’s status could make something out of nothing.

After Luo Yuebai spoke for the second time, everyone in the audience finally reacted.

Their gazes fell once again on Su Jingzhen.

At this moment, they weren’t filled with envy and jealousy anymore, but rather with suspicion.

Although everyone present couldn’t intervene in any decisions made by Luo Yuebai, they still had the right to be skeptical.

As for the disciples of the Evil Moon Sect themselves, their expressions were filled with confusion.

“Earlier, he was invited to sit in that position, which could be considered as Senior Luo’s appreciation for him.”

“But now, directly appointing this guy as the Chief Acolyte of the Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang branch, isn’t that too much of a compliment?”

“That’s right, no matter how extraordinary he is, he’s ultimately just a Body Cultivator.”

“His achievements are destined to be limited.”

“I wonder if this decision was made solely by Senior Luo or if it came from the main sect of the Evil Moon Sect.”

…

Once again, without any surprises, countless people raised questions and discussed.

At this moment, Luo Yuebai was eagerly looking at Su Jingzhen.

He had no choice but to stand up.

If he didn’t show any response, wouldn’t it embarrass Luo Yuebai?

Su Jingzhen looked at the smiling Luo Yuebai with a wry smile on his face.

“Why bother doing this, Friend Luo?”

“I am neither talented nor capable.”

At this moment, in Su Jingzhen’s eyes, Luo Yuebai’s actions were no different from thuggish kidnapping.

If he really directly refused Luo Yuebai in front of so many people, it would undoubtedly make Luo Yuebai lose face.

Perhaps Luo Yuebai wouldn’t say anything, but those demonic cultivators under her would probably tear him apart.

So, when Luo Yuebai announced this decision in front of everyone,

Su Jingzhen had no right to refuse.

Moreover, the most important thing was that Luo Yuebai had only announced it.

In other words, this appointment by the Evil Moon Sect was unilateral.

Whether Su Jingzhen accepted it or not didn’t matter. As long as Luo Yuebai acknowledged it, the matter would take effect.

However, upon hearing Su Jingzhen’s words, Luo Yuebai smiled again and said,

“Friend Su, you assisted our sect in killing Cao Qing, the Vice Sect Master of the Huayang branch, and also killed Chen Jinshi, an inner disciple of the Huayang Sect.”

“In the battle to overthrow the Huayang branch, you have already made significant contributions.”

“Now, appointing you as the Chief Acolyte is only natural.”

Although this reason was somewhat far-fetched, it was indeed a reason.

Su Jingzhen felt helpless, knowing that today he was destined to be completely tied to the Evil Moon Sect.

There was no turning back. He was doomed to be roasted over the fire by Luo Yuebai.

Then he accepted it calmly.

But on the surface, he still spoke again, “My qualifications are still shallow. I’m afraid it would be difficult to convince everyone directly in this position.”

However, when he said this, a serious expression suddenly appeared on Luo Yuebai’s face.

A cold smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.

“Who dares not to obey the person appointed by our sect?”

This statement was extremely domineering.

Once again, it shook the hearts of all the disciples of the Evil Moon Sect.

“Respect to the Grand Acolyte!”

“Respect to the Grand Acolyte!”

“…”

Immediately, all the disciples of the Evil Moon Sect present bowed to Su Jingzhen.

Although most people didn’t understand Luo Yuebai’s decision at this moment, and even had doubts in their hearts, they didn’t dare to show disagreement with Luo Yuebai at this time.

Many Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Evil Moon Sect looked at Su Jingzhen with a hint of mockery in their eyes.

It could be foreseen that even though they acknowledged Su Jingzhen’s position given by Luo Yuebai, it might be difficult for him to exercise his authority within the Evil Moon Sect in the future.

A hint of a smile appeared again at the corner of Luo Yuebai’s mouth.

“Acolyte Su, please come up to the stage!”

Hearing this, Su Jingzhen’s expression became complicated again.

But since he had already accepted this identity and had been so high-profile today, it didn’t matter if he became even more high-profile.

The expression on Su Jingzhen’s face suddenly calmed down.

He walked directly onto the stage and stood beside Luo Yuebai.

At this close distance, Luo Yuebai’s beauty became even clearer.

At this moment, Luo Yuebai’s gaze towards him still carried a hint of cunning.

Suddenly, Su Jingzhen heard her laughter in his ears, “Friend Su, this is the gift I gave you. Do you like it?”

This was Luo Yuebai communicating with him through sound transmission.

Su Jingzhen was once again stunned, feeling more helpless.

Before Su Jingzhen could respond, a serious expression suddenly appeared on Luo Yuebai’s face again.

Then, a dark purple token suddenly appeared in her hand.

One side of the token was engraved with the character “Su,” and the other side was a sinister moon!

“This is the identity token of the Chief Acolyte of the Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang Branch.”

“Please accept it, Acolyte Su!”

These things had been prepared long ago.

Obviously, Luo Yuebai had already planned Su Jingzhen’s current position long ago.
