When Lin Yifan told Yang Xiao everything, his eyes almost fell out of shock.
Who would have thought that a young man less than twenty years old whom he met a few months ago would suddenly transform into a martial arts leader who could command the world!
Such a huge change in identity really surprised Yang Xiao.
"Yes, I am now the leader of the martial arts alliance in the Central Plains. The purpose of coming here this time is to make peace with the Mingjiao, and to invite the Mingjiao to join our anti-Yuan alliance and hold a grand event against the Yuan together!"
Speaking of this, Lin Yifan looked at Yang Xiao sincerely, making him feel his strong determination to resist the Yuan Dynasty.
In fact, sometimes Lin Yifan himself feels that he is very funny.
Obviously he is a selfish person who only cares about his own enjoyment, but yet he is so concerned about Yuan Daye.
This is very inconsistent with his character!
However, who said that selfish people cannot have a patriotic heart!
It is true that he is selfish and indifferent, and he is true to his deep thoughts, but his determination to expel the Tartars and restore the Han family's country is even more true!
When it comes to moral corruption, He Taichong bears the brunt.
However, he is also a determined person in the great cause of resisting the Yuan Dynasty.
Maybe he can't bear the smell of poison to stain my Han family, or maybe Lin Yifan also has the ambition to conquer the world.
In short, Lin Yifan is more serious than ever on the matter of resisting the Yuan Dynasty!
"Lin Shaoxia, it stands to reason that you are the great benefactor of my Ming Cult and will be my son-in-law in the future. In addition, the fight against the Yuan Dynasty has been a great cause that I have persisted in since I taught Yi Yi. I should not reject you under any circumstances. It's just that …”
At this point, Yang Xiao sighed heavily, and then said in a sad tone: "I believe you have also seen that our Ming Cult is now divided in the west. Except for me and King Wei Bat who are holding up the scene, the rest do not listen to the orders of the general altar. , Even if I promise you, the people below may not obey your orders!"
These few words really expressed the exhaustion and sadness deep in Yang Xiao's heart.
One thing to say, in fact, although Yang Xiao has outstanding personal charm, is also very powerful in martial arts, and also has the lofty ambition of 'driving out the Tartars and restoring China', as a scholar-style martial artist, he is really not suitable to be a leader.
This can be seen from the fact that he is still an acting leader after ten years of service.
He has a loose personality and unrestrained preferences. The reason why he was willing to follow Wei Yixiao's suggestion to serve as the acting leader was because he wanted to avenge his woman out of selfish motives.
After so many years, he not only failed to bring the Ming Cult together, but instead caused more members to become alienated from the Ming Cult.
In the original work, when the six sects besieged Guangmingding, he deliberately refused to rescue the White-browed Eagle King and others in order not to lose face, and even started internal strife when the Mingjiao was in danger.
It can be said that in the original work, the Ming sect was almost destroyed, and Yang Xiao was mainly responsible.
No wonder the White-browed Eagle King, Wu Sanren and others were dissatisfied with Yang Xiao becoming the leader. It was really unlucky for the Ming Cult to have such a leader.
Looking at Yang Xiao's helpless expression, Lin Yifan thought for a moment, and then said in a solemn tone: "I dare to ask Master Yang, do you really want to carry forward the Ming Cult, and do you regard expelling the Yuan soldiers as your top priority?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiao became extremely angry: "What do you mean, Young Master Lin! Do you doubt my Yang Xiao's loyalty to my religion? Or do you doubt my determination to fight against Yuan Ting!"
Since I became the thirty-second generation leader of the religion, our religion has always regarded expelling the Tartars as the top priority. Even if the Wusan people and others do not listen to my orders, they all regard this as the top priority.
Even if I, Yang Xiao, am not talented, am I still inferior to Zhou Dian, Peng Yingyu and others? "
After saying that, Yang Xiao couldn't help but drink a few sips of wine.
Seeing this, Yang Buhui on the side quickly winked at Lin Yifan, signaling him to apologize quickly.
Otherwise, she would feel uncomfortable if her future husband and father quarreled.
But Lin Yifan seemed not to have seen it. He looked at Yang Xiao with a serious expression and said something that no one had expected: "Master Yang, please give me the position of leader of the Ming Cult! I have a way to make the Dharma King of the West and Guangming The right envoy Fan Yao and others return to Mingjiao!"
In one sentence, earth-shattering!
Click!
Surprised, Yang Xiao failed to control the strength in his hand and crushed the end of the wine glass into powder.
Yang Xiao never imagined that Lin Yifan would dare to ask him to pass on the position of leader of the Ming Cult to him in front of him!
This kind of bold behavior is something even the arrogant and unruly Yang Xiao thinks he can't do!
"You...you want me to pass on the position of leader to you?" Yang Xiao asked uncertainly.
"Yes, this is also one of my reasons for coming!" Lin Yifan said seriously.
"But... aren't you the leader of the six martial arts sects? Can they allow you to do this?"
"But I have my own way to get the six sects to agree, and I have the dual identity of leader of the martial arts alliance and leader of the Ming Cult, which will be more beneficial to expel the Tartars!"
"Are you really sure that you can gather people's hearts and let the golden-haired lion king Xie Xun and the white-browed eagle king return to Mingjiao?"
"I'm sure! Otherwise I wouldn't dare to boast about Haikou."
Between the questions and answers, the expression on Yang Xiao's face became more and more serious.
Afterwards, he stopped asking questions and was making various calculations in his mind.
The idea of letting Lin Yifan be the leader seems to be unreasonable and impossible to realize, but if you think about it carefully, it is still feasible.
First of all, Lin Yifan was very kind to Mingjiao.
He helped the Mingjiao capture Cheng Kun and informed him of Yang Dingtian's death. All the Mingjiao owed him a favor for this matter.
Second, Lin Yifan not only learned the Great Shift, but also practiced it to unprecedented heights.
From this aspect, he is the perfect candidate for the leader of the famous religion.
Third, among the people Yang Xiao has ever met, Lin Yifan has the strongest will to resist the Yuan Dynasty.
It is indeed very suitable for him to inherit the ideal of leader Yang Dingtian to resist Baoyuan.
From a personal perspective, Yang Xiao agrees with Lin Yifan being the leader of the Ming Cult.
First, Lin Yifan was kind to Yang Xiao.
Although there are rumors in the world that the imperial court caused his death, Yang Xiao knows very well that it was actually Lin Yifan who did it.
Second, Lin Yifan is his future son-in-law.
With this relationship, the connection between Lin Yifan and Mingjiao can be well guaranteed.
Third, if Lin Yifan really reunited the Mingjiao that had been divided in the west, it would be a great thing for Yang Xiao.
For Yang Xiao himself, he felt uncomfortable because everyone was alienated from Guangming because of him.
So, after thinking for a long time, Yang Xiao made a decision.
"Okay! Since Young Master Lin is so sure, I, Yang Xiao, will not regret my position as the leader of this generation. If the two envoys of Guangming, the Dharma King of the West, and the Wusan people can gather together in the future, we will pay homage to the new leader and guide him. The Mingjiao fight against the violence together!”
