Chapter 2109


    Noel looked at Fane in surprise, not understanding why he suddenly asked about Elder Godfrey, but


    he still answered his question, "We have a total of eleven formal elders. Based on ranking, Elder


    Godfrey is the eleventh formal elder. However, he is quite talented. The ranking of the formal elders


    is ranked ording to their strength. It is estimated that it will not take long before Elder Godfrey


    bes one of the top three formal elders.”


    Fane nodded, and after a light sigh, he continued to ask, "Then, have any of the formal elders had a


    conflict with each other?"


    Noel picked his teacup and took a sip. "Why do you ask? How do you know Elder Godfrey


    anyways?"


    Fane cleared his throat, touched his nose, and said, "I saw Elder Godfrey while I was in Dual


    Sovereign City. It''s funny now that I think about it. I knew him to be a formal elder by the way he


    was dressed but didn’t know which formal elder he was. I only found out his name when the person


    next to him told me."


    Noel seemed to be satisfied with the exnation and did not press any further. Instead, he


    answered Fane’s previous questions. "If you’re looking for the reason for conflicts within the formal


    elders, my guess is the fight over who gets to be the head of the n association."


    Fane''s eyes widened. Seeing this, Noelughed. He was sure Fane knew nothing about this and


    proceeded to tell him the whole story. It turned out that the head of the Dual Sovereign Pavilion was


    already advancing in age and intended to abdicate. He would then be promoted to a supreme elder


    allowing him to focus on his cultivation, so the position of the head has be the goal of the


    formal elders.


    The head has always been the strongest elder among the formal elders and by logic, should go to


    the topranking formal elder. However, the rtionship between these eleven formal elders was


    There were even people who said that the second formal elder was stronger than the first formal


    elder and that the second formal elder should be the first formal elder. Therefore, the news that the


    head wanted to abdicate had be the fuse that blew apart what was already a fragile


    rtionship between the formal elders.


    The first and second formal elder was vying to be the new head once the old head abdicated.


    Out of the remaining nine formal elders, four of them supported the first formal elder while the other


    four of them supported the second formal elder, leaving Elder Godfrey, a newly promoted formal


    elder, holding the vote that would tip the scale. Unsurprisingly, both the first and second formal


    elders had been courting him to their respective teams.


    Fane finally knew what was at stake for the formal elders. Heughed ironically and said, "In other


    words, Elder Godfrey holds the winning vote to who gets to be the next head?"


    Noel nodded but then shook his head. "Yes and no. While his vote is important, it’s still too early to


    say that whoever he chooses will for sure be the next head but as long as Elder Godfrey makes a


    choice, the scale will be favorable toward the side he had chosen."

    Even Brook could tell what was at stake for everyone. Realization suddenly dawned on Fane, when


    he recalled Elder Godfrey''s strange expression and the way he was asking whether Thousand


    Leaves Pavilion did anything about the Corpse Pavilion.


    He was sure that the Dual Sovereign Pavilion had long known about what was going on in Mount


    Beasts and that was why they did not do anything about it.
