    Chapter 557 Faith Request an Audience


    Nigel shook his head in shame.


    Of course, he had entertained such thoughts.


    Roy is his son. He would be proud as a father if he could be the leader of the three sects. That’s


    why he was so excited at first.


    But the truth was that John was the rightful inheritor of the Heavenly Sword Emperor, and convincing


    Larry and David of this would be difficult. They would undoubtedly object again if Roy were appointed


    sect leader


    The chubby shook his head like a rattle, and said, “John, I can’t do it. How can I take on such


    responsibility?”


    John said helplessly. “Well, there’s nothing to be done then. The three major sword sects will have to


    maintain the status quo. Your legacy was wasted on me.”


    When they heard what he said, they realized he wasn’t joking and that bing the new sect leader


    was really regarded as a burden.


    Nigel’s eyes brightened, and he eximed, “I have a suggestion. Why don’t you appoint a substitute


    sect leader, and when you want to take over, you can abdicate the position of the substitute leader at


    any time?”


    *Smart thinking!”


    John cast a thoughtful nce at Nigel. He was very aware of what he was thinking. He pretended not


    to know, however, and asked, “So, who should be chosen as the acting sect leader?”


    “Uhm…”


    Nigel suddenly didn’t know how he should answer.

    John had just said that he wanted to give Roy the position of sect leader. So why was he asking this


    now, when Nigel had proposed appointing an acting sect leader?


    It’s impossible for him to shamelessly appoint his son, right?


    How would Larry and David think of him?


    Nigel could only awkwardly say, “Just follow your own heart.”


    “Then Roy, it is!”


    John stopped teasing and spoke decisively.


    “Please look after me in the future, sect leader!”


    Nigel was overjoyed and turned to Larry and David, saying, “You both just agreed to give up your


    position as sect leader. This person is now our new sect leader. You wouldn’t defy the new leader’s


    decisions, would you?”


    “Hmph!”


    They couldn’t stand Nigel’s arrogant behavior and expressed their displeasure with a cold snort


    “If there isn’t anything else, I’ll return to the Ghost Sword Sect first Goodbye!”


    Larry looked at John and quickly walked away, no longer disying the awe he had previously


    disyed as if Lu Yun were the Heavenly Sword Emperor.


    David followed suit, saying. “Me too,” and then exiting the Sword Emperor Hall.


    The two left without looking back.


    John turned his head to look at Nigel and spoke in a strange tone, “Sir Lopez, you don’t actually believe


    that those two are willing to give up their position as sect leader, do you?”


    “Of course, I’m not that naive.”


    Nigel blurted out, and then sighed, “Well, after all, the Heavenly Sword Emperor has been away for so


    many years, those two guys have long since given up the legacy of the Sword Emperor Sect.”


    “So, you had me y along with you just now?”


    John suddenly felt speechless.


    That man is extremely idle. He made himself the leader of the three sects, and then he named a new


    inheritor. It appears that he was only acting. What a waste of emotions.


    Nigel said, “It wasn’t exactly acting. In fact, I do hope deep down that the Sword Emperor Sect can be


    rebuilt. However, based on the actions of Larry and David just now, I think it’s almost impossible.”


    “Perhaps!”


    John remained silent. He was uninterested in the minor differences between the three major sword


    sects.


    “Actually, as long as you nod your head, regardless of what attitude David and Larry have, I am willing


    to hand over the position of leader of the Spiritual Sword Sect to you wholeheartedly,” Nigel continued.


    “Please keep it to yourself!”


    John shook his head, refusing to discuss the subject further.


    Nigel abruptly recalled something and stated, “By the way, Harry, our Spiritual Sword Sect has an


    Emperor Swordsmanship Manual that the Heavenly Sword Emperor left behind. As his inheritor, I


    believe you are qualified to cultivate it.”


    Emperor Swordsmanship Manual?


    John’s interest finally got piqued.


    He realized the emperor-ss sword spirit, in terms of his swordsmanship’s aura, was enough to


    dominate the world. If he could learn new sword techniques from the manual, he would be able to


    completely transform that aura into a real attack.


    That idea might work.


    When Nigel saw that John was interested, he immediately invited him to the Spiritual Sword Sect.


    Just as they were about to leave the Sword Emperor Hall, a presbyter of the Spiritual Sword Sect


    suddenly walked in and said, “Leader, Faith Wood, and others are outside the hall, repeatedly


    requesting to meet with the inheritor.”


    It can be inferred from the presbyter’s words that Faith’s position in the Moore family is clearly higher


    than that of Steven Moore.


    Otherwise, ording tomon sense, when a familyes to request an audience with the


    inheritor, the messenger should mention the husband’s name, which is Steven.


    However, the fact that the presbyter imed to be Faith and others indicated that his wife’s dominance


    and influence within the family were widely known.


    “Faith Wood?”


    Nigel was stunned for a moment before expressing contempt.


    In the Alps Mountain, Cloud School was a major force, and besides serving as a teacher in the school,


    Faith was also primarily responsible for Cloud School’s external rtions.


    Her vanity is almost notorious.


    How could Nigel not be aware of her intentions? It was said that when the Queen Cyan inheritor


    appeared in the Cinnabar Sectst time, Faith hurriedly brought her daughter to visit.


    On the surface, she was representing the Cloud School to make connections with the inheritor of


    Queen Cyan’s will, but everyone knew what she was really up to.


    John knew but still asked, “Who is that person?”


    Nigel sneered and said, “The people of the Moore family from the Cloud School are extremely


    opportunistic, and I bet that snobby woman is here this time to use her daughter for her own benefit.”


    “So does it mean her daughter looks beautiful?”


    “That’s for sure. Don’t tell me you don’t know about Violet Moore. She’s a beauty with exceptional


    intelligence and unique insights into martial arts and exercise methods. Anyone who marries her will


    have great fortune for eight lifetimes.”


    The chubby eagerly responded.


    Nigel gave him a fierce re.


    John appeared lost in thought for a moment before grinning and saying, “Since they want to see me, let


    theme, but I’ll only meet with one person. Allow her daughter toe in!”
