Chapter 1568
"Qiu Mingshan, you have five minutes to speak now." The elder who presided over the election said in a cold tone.
Obviously, in his opinion, Qiu Mingshan had no chance of turning the tables, so he didn't take the former president seriously at all.
Qiu Mingshan suddenly shook his head and didn't say anything, as if he had accepted his fate.
"Hehe!"
The elder who presided over the election couldn't help but sneer. In his eyes, Qiu Mingshan was still very tactful, knowing that even if Qiu Mingshan himself said it, it would be useless.
Without strength to support, who can get support from just a mouth?
However, what the elder didn't notice was that Qiu Mingshan's hand on the side of his leg at this time was slightly squeezed, and there was a flash of ferocity in his pupils.
Die!
Qiu Mingshan secretly made up his mind in his heart that after he cleared Ye Xiao and the people from the general association, he would kill these traitors.
In order to ensure that his plan was foolproof, Qiu Mingshan did not reveal his plan to any elders or disciples of the Aocheng Wuji Association except to his only confidant.
Now it seems that there is a second benefit to doing this, which is to let those fence-sitters jump out by themselves, making it easier for him to eliminate them one by one in the future.
"Elder Xu, since Qiu Mingshan has given up the election, please read out the appointment of the General Assembly!"
The elder changed to a flattering tone and looked at Elder Xu and said.
The election rules of the Wuji Association are that the local branches first elect a president, and then the General Assembly will appoint him. If the branch cannot elect a president, the General Assembly will directly appoint him.
Now Qiu Mingshan's silence is naturally regarded as abstention.
Seeing Qiu Mingshan's performance at this time, most of the Wuji Association members and guests present thought like the elder, thinking that Qiu Mingshan was self-aware and knew that he could not resist the general trend.
But Elder Xu and Sun Tingjian, after being reminded by Ye Xiao, became somewhat hesitant.
Could it be that Ye Xiao's sense of danger did not come from Qiu Mingshan?
Or was Qiu Mingshan just waiting for the right time?
Although Elder Xu could not think of any reason for the time being, he still obeyed Ye Xiao's words and took out the appointment document of the General Assembly according to the pre-arrangement and began to read it out.
"In view of the fact that the Aocheng branch has not elected a candidate for the president, the General Assembly specially appointed Sun Tingjian, a member of Canghai Building, to serve as the president of the Aocheng branch."
As soon as Elder Xu's voice fell, applause broke out in the venue.
In the eyes of the crowd, the situation was the same as they thought. Qiu Mingshan's appearance was just a formality. The position of president had long been decided to belong to Sun Tingjian.
"Please welcome the new president Sun Tingjian!"
The elder who presided over the election sang loudly, and his tone was completely different from the tone when he called Qiu Mingshan's name before, full of respect and flattery.
Warm applause rang out again in the venue.
There were also some very capable Wuji disciples who shouted, "President Sun, President Sun!"
They built momentum for Sun Tingjian, as if Sun Tingjian had already become the president of the Aocheng Wuji Association and was supported by them.
Sun Tingjian stood up with a smile on his face and walked towards the center of the venue, but he was not as happy as he looked on the surface, and even a little uneasy.
Because he didn't know when the change that Ye Xiao sensed would happen. Although everything seemed to be going well now, it might just be the calm before the storm.
When Sun Tingjian walked to the center of the martial arts field, the applause stopped one after another. He cleared his throat and said, "Thank you for the respect of the association and thank you for your support!"
"Sun promises here that after I become the president, I will definitely take the Aocheng Wuji Association to a new level, and together with my colleagues in the martial arts world, make the Aocheng martial arts more prosperous..."
Sun Tingjian spoke in an orderly manner according to the previous draft.
Thunderous applause came from time to time in the venue, and it seemed that everything was going very smoothly. The next step was to eat the banquet with firecrackers.
"Qiu Mingshan, hand over the president's seal to President Sun!"
Just after Sun Tingjian finished speaking, the elder on the side said in a commanding tone.
Now the election has come to the last step. As long as the seal is handed over, Sun Tingjian will firmly become the president of the Aocheng Wuji Association, and Qiu Mingshan will soon become a prisoner, so how can he still be good to Qiu Mingshan.
Everyone in the martial arts arena turned their eyes to Qiu Mingshan again, as if they were all waiting to see the humiliation of the former president.
However, Qiu Mingshan did not remain silent at this time, nor did he take out his seal according to the established process.
He raised, the eyelids that had been drooping since he appeared on stage were shining.
"Sun Tingjian, can I ask you a few questions?"
Qiu Mingshan changed his previous decadence and said with full energy.
Now it was finally his turn to perform. Sun Tingjian was already very proud. It was time for him to kick him down and step on him hard.
"Ah!"
When Qiu Mingshan said this, the whole audience was shocked. No one thought that Qiu Mingshan would do something weird at this time.
But what's the use of this? Can Qiu Mingshan change anything?
This just makes him look more like a clown.
At this moment, Ye Xiao suddenly turned his head and looked towards the gate.
He sensed that there were several very powerful warriors approaching the direction of Wu Jihui. The realm of one of them was exactly the same as he had expected before, which was the realm of transformation.
It seems that Qiu Mingshan's help has arrived.
Not bad! He staged a Jedi counterattack at the last moment. If he hadn't sensed danger and avoided it, he would have been amazed by Qiu Mingshan's layout!
Elder Xu and Sun Tingjian frowned instantly. Although they didn't realize that there were already martial arts masters who had come to the Wu Ji Club, Qiu Mingshan's abnormal reaction undoubtedly proved that Ye Xiao's reminder was correct.
Sure enough, Qiu Mingshan was not willing to admit defeat.
The elder who presided over the election scolded him sternly: "Qiu Mingshan, don't embarrass yourself here. If you have any questions, you can come down and ask President Sun."
Now that Qiu Mingshan's defeat was certain, how could he tolerate Qiu Mingshan's mischief? He just wanted Qiu Mingshan to complete the process honestly so that he could finish his work early.
In his opinion, Qiu Mingshan would definitely retreat wisely. After all, his status was higher than Qiu Mingshan's now. If he disobeyed him, Qiu Mingshan would just ask for trouble.
However, Sun Tingjian was calm. He looked at Qiu Mingshan and said, "Elder Tu, let him ask!"
Even if Qiu Mingshan has a backup plan, and Ye Xiao is still here, Sun Tingjian doesn't believe that Qiu Mingshan can easily capsize.
"Uh!"
Elder Tu couldn't help but be surprised. It was obvious that Qiu Mingshan wanted to make trouble! Why did Sun Tingjian indulge him?
At this time, Qiu Mingshan had no backing and lost the support of the people. Why should he give him this face?
Wouldn't it be better to suppress it directly?
But since it was Sun Tingjian who spoke, he couldn't disobey. He could only glance at Qiu Mingshan impatiently.
Qiu Mingshan smiled strangely, "Sun Tingjian, I want to ask you, was the death of my father and grandfather planned by you and the General Association?"
"Now that they are dead, you jump out to take over my position as the president. You are really calculating and vicious!"
"If that's the case, I, Qiu Mingshan, will speak up for my father and grandfather today."
Everything must be justified, which is why Qiu Mingshan has been patient until now and exploded.
If he had sung a different tune from Sun Tingjian and the General Association at the beginning, he would only be considered unreasonable, but now with the death of his father and grandfather, plus Sun Tingjian who came directly from the General Association, he would be able to have some reason.
Even if this reason is untenable, because most people know what happened, and it can't stand scrutiny, but as long as he is the one who wins the final victory, isn't it up to him to say it?
