Peerless God Emperor

Many figures' eyes flickered with light, as if they were quite interested in the position of Hall Master of the Punishment Hall. Although the Punishment Hall belonged to the Stellar Hall, and the position of the Hall Master of the Punishment Hall was only equivalent to that of the Vice Hall Masters of the Four Great Divine Halls, there was one thing that the Four Great Divine Halls could not compare with.    

The Punishment Hall was in charge of the order of the Divine King Palace, and its authority could be said to be extremely great. More importantly, the Punishment Hall was a force that the Divine King had established for the first time, and its position in the Divine King's heart was definitely extremely high. If he became the Hall Master of the Punishment Hall, there was no doubt that he would definitely become the Divine King's trusted aide.    

From the current situation, it would be beneficial for him to be close to the Divine King, and there might be a chance to break through that layer of shackles in the future and truly become a peak figure.    

Although there were not many people in the Divine King Palace who were at the Primordial Realm, there were still more than a dozen of them, but there were less than a handful of those at the Manifestation Realm. If there was a chance to break through their realms, even if there was only a sliver of hope, those Primordial Realm cultivators would not easily let it go.    

However, although many people had thoughts about the position of the Hall Master of the Punishion Hall, no one took the initiative to speak. After all, they did not know what Qin Xuan was thinking. If Qin Xuan already had a candidate, it would be meaningless for them to take the initiative to fight for it. Instead, they would offend the current Hall Master, and it would not benefit them at all.    

Therefore, they chose to remain silent.    

"What thoughts do you all have? Or do you all think that there is anyone who can take on the heavy responsibility?" Qin Xuan looked at everyone and said. His tone was calm, as if he was seeking their opinions.    

"I have a candidate who might be able to take over the position of Hall Master."    

At this moment, a voice rang out in the air. The person who spoke was none other than the Hall Master of the Stellar Hall, Heavenly Venerate Star Vast. Many people looked at him, not too surprised, as if they had guessed that he would speak.    

After all, the Disciplinary Hall was nominally under the Stellar Hall. The Disciplinary Hall was powerful, and it was a good thing for the Stellar Hall. Furthermore, they guessed that Heavenly Venerate Star Vast would most likely choose his own trusted aide to be the Hall Master.    

If Wan Hua became the Disciplinary Hall's Hall Master, Heavenly Venerate Star Vast's power would not be much weaker than now. However, if someone else became the Hall Master, the Disciplinary Hall would most likely not listen to his orders. After weighing the pros and cons, he would naturally choose Wan Hua.    

"Who are you choosing?" Qin Xuan looked at Heavenly Venerate Star Vast and asked.    

"Wan Hua," Heavenly Venerate Star Vast replied. When he heard this, a light instantly shot out from Heavenly Venerate Wan Hua's eyes. He had communicated with Heavenly Venerate Star Vast about this matter, and Heavenly Venerate Star Vast had promised to help him fight for the position of the Disciplinary Hall Master. As expected, he had kept his promise.    

"Why?" Qin Xuan asked indifferently, as if he did not know what Heavenly Venerate Star Vast was thinking.    

"Wan Hua has already been in the Divine King Palace for more than two million years. No matter if it is his qualifications or his strength, they are enough to convince the masses. In addition, Wan Hua is the deputy hall master of the Stellar Hall. Before the Divine King, the Disciplinary Hall was under the Stellar Hall, so it is only right and proper for Wan Hua to be the Hall Master. It will also be easier for the Stellar Hall to manage the Disciplinary Hall in the future."    

Many people's eyes flickered as they thought to themselves that Heavenly Venerate Starless was indeed worthy of being the Hall Master. His words were reasonable and sounded flawless. Not only did he explain that Heavenly Venerate Myriad Incarnations was qualified to be the Hall Master, he also emphasized the relationship between the Punishment Hall and the Starry Hall, thereby consolidating his position.    

Qin Xuan took a deep look at Heavenly Venerate Starless and naturally understood his thoughts. However, he did not express his attitude. Instead, he looked at the other three Hall Masters and asked, "Do the three Hall Masters have any other candidates?"    

Heavenly Venerate Starless' face immediately darkened. Qin Xuan did not directly accept his suggestion, but instead asked the other three. It was very likely that they did not agree with his suggestion.    

"I think that Nan Yuan is qualified to be the Hall Master," Heavenly Venerate Donglai replied.    

"Qingguang can also be qualified," Heavenly Venerate Changqing also said.    

Everyone's eyes revealed a strange light. As expected, they were all choosing their own trusted aides, wanting to extend their hands into the Punishment Hall.    

"Does the Grand Mystery Hall Master have a candidate?" Qin Xuan looked at Grand Mystery Heavenly Venerate again, his expression still as calm as ever, as if he had forgotten what had happened previously.    

"I have been in seclusion for many years and have not asked about the situation in the Divine King Palace for a long time. Therefore, I am unable to give a candidate. I hope that the Divine King will forgive me," Heavenly Venerate Grand Mystery replied indifferently.    

Qin Xuan's eyes revealed a profound meaning. He actually did not choose the person beside him. This Grand Mystery Hall Master was even more unfathomable than he had imagined.    

"I have a suggestion. I wonder what the Divine King thinks." At this moment, Heavenly Venerate Starless' voice rang out once again.    

Qin Xuan looked at Celestial Venerate Star Vault and asked, "What suggestion?"    

"Why don't we seek the opinions of everyone present? From the three people who proposed it just now, we can choose the Hall Master and the Vice Hall Master. This way, not only will we be able to convince the masses, it can also be considered a fairly fair method." Celestial Venerate Star Vault said with a smile, as if he was neutral and would not lean towards any side.    

"How cunning!"    

Many people looked at Celestial Venerate Vast Sky and thought to themselves. Celestial Venerate Star Vault's suggestion was to lock the candidates in Wan Hua and the other two. Compared to Nan Yuan and Qing Guang, Wan Hua was undoubtedly more suitable to be the Hall Master.    

"The Godly Monarch has not asked the three Venerate Envoys for their opinions. Perhaps they have other suitable candidates. It's better not to be too impatient." Venerate Vast Sky said indifferently, his words full of spite.    

Celestial Venerate Star Vault's expression changed slightly, but he immediately smiled again. He looked at Qin Xuan and said apologetically, "I was wrong just now. I hope that Godly Monarch doesn't take offense."    

"Everyone has their own opinions. What is wrong with that?" Qin Xuan waved his hand indifferently, and then said, "Before this, I discussed with the three Venerate Envoys about the Hall Master's candidate. In the end, we reached an agreement."    

Many people tensed up, and their gazes focused on Qin Xuan's face, waiting for his next words.    

Who would be the Hall Master?    

The heart of Heavenly Venerate Wan Hua thumped. He felt that his chances were not small, at least better than Nan Yuan and Qing Guang. However, he could not figure out Qin Xuan's thoughts. It was possible that he would make a decision that exceeded the expectations of ordinary people.    

"Our decision is to appoint Fen Old Master as the Hall Master of the Disciplinary Hall," Qin Xuan said with a faint smile on his face.    

"Fen Qing?"    

Everyone was shocked and could not believe what they had just heard.    

Fen Old Master was already a respected envoy, and his status was only second to the Divine King. How could he be the Hall Master of the Disciplinary Hall?    

This was simply unreasonable.    

The hearts of Celestial Venerate Star Vault, Celestial Venerate Donglai, and Celestial Venerate Changqing were also greatly shaken. However, they were extremely smart and quickly reacted, and their expressions turned ugly.    

They had all been fooled by Qin Xuan.    

Although Qin Xuan claimed that the Disciplinary Hall belonged to the Starry Hall, and that the Hall Master of the Disciplinary Hall would be the vice hall master of the Starry Hall, he had never explicitly stated that the Hall Master of the Disciplinary Halls could only be chosen from the four great halls’ vice hall masters. This was their own subjective guess.    

Now, it seemed that the reason why Qin Xuan did not say it out loud was to release a false signal, to let them have a sliver of hope that they would have a chance to insert their trusted aides into the Disciplinary Hall. Secondly, it was to let them cooperate with the establishment of the Disciplinary Hall.    

Now that the Disciplinary Hall had already been established, it was too late for them to regret it. They could only admit that they were unlucky.    

Celestial Venerate Donglai and Celestial Venerate Changqing, on the other hand, were still alright. They did not have much hope in the first place, and were already prepared to fail. Celestial Venerate Star Vault was extremely uncomfortable, and his face turned green with anger.    

He thought that Qin Xuan would let Celestial Venerate Myriad Transformations take the position of Hall Master, so he had been actively cooperating from the beginning. He even specially transferred a lot of powerful people to the Disciplinary Hall. However, he did not expect that Qin Xuan would be able to trick him in the end.    

This brat was really sinister!
