CHAPTER 1221 ELECTING A NEW CHAIRMAN
Zhang Tiankai's voice was filled with mockery.
What he had to do now was detract Bao Rongdong as much as he could and make sure his credibility and authority went down as much as possible.
How else would he get the chance to become Chairman?
Zhang Tiankai had coveted the Chairman's position for years, but he only came close to it now. Since Bao Rongdong was such a coward, he didn't deserve the position anymore.
It was Zhang Tiankai's time.
The atmosphere in the main hall was depressing.
None of the few remaining leaders wanted to die. And they were keenly aware that Bao Rongdong wasn't going to step up to his position now.
He didn't even react at all after this tragic incident befell Qing Sect. What else was he capable of doing other than hiding in the Bao family estate?
Bao Rongdong's credibility in Qing Sect had hit rock bottom, and countless members cursed and spat at him in private.
"Many of our men have died," said Zhang Tiankai, "If this continues, everyone will die!
It's an embarrassment to die at Jiang Ning's hand. Qing Sect's 100-year old foundation stood strong 20 years ago, but it is getting ruined by a little brat now. Can you take it lying down?" Zhang Tiankai said loudly.
Yin Yun and the others looked equally upset.
It wasn't a mere question of indignation but one of continuity and survival.
No one anticipated Jiang Ning to be this insane. He provoked them within their homeland, and now he had personally come here to execute six of their leaders!
No one knew who was next.
"Then what do you think we should do now?" asked Lin Huan as he stared at Zhang Tiankai. "Do you have any ideas?"
In a matter of days, so many people died. Jiang Ning wasn't easy to handle.
"Should Qing Sect fear Jiang Ning?" asked Zhang Tiankai as he smiled. "I tell you, we didn't end up like this because we were incapable. It was because...we lacked a brave and driven chairman!"
Each one of them was keenly aware of this.
Zhang Tiankai stopped beating around the bush. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
"I think it's time we change the chairman!"
"That's right!" said Qian Hu immediately, "Bao Rongdong has completely let us down with those actions of his. He doesn't have the right to continue being the chairman. When Qing Sect needed him to stand up for us, he went into hiding. When the Qing Sect was insulted, he conceded defeat. What use is a chairman like that?”
Qian Hu reached his hand out and pointed at Zhang Tiankai as he said, "I recommend that the leader of the Dragons, Zhang Tiankai, take over Qing Sect as its new chairman! He will lead us to new heights!"
Zhang Tiankai stood there with a calm and collected smile on his face.
He looked around before asking, "I agree with Qian Hu's suggestion. What about the rest of you?"
Lin Huan and the others looked at each other. At this point, what other choice did they have?
"I agree," said Lin Huan as he nodded.
After all, no matter who became chairman, it would never be Lin Huan. It was enough to stay alive and keep his position.
"In that case, I agree too," said the leader of the Mice, Yang Bai. Since Lin Huan agreed, he nodded too.
"I agree too," said the leader of the Rabbits, Yan Fei, as he nodded.
It was the general trend and popular sentiment, so he couldn't change anything.
Only Bao Rongdong's trusted subordinate, the leader of the Snakes, Yin Yun, was left.
There was a complicated expression on Yin Yun's face.
Everyone else had voted for it, so it didn't matter even if she didn't agree to it.
She even speculated that those other leaders might not have died at Jiang Ning's hands at all, but were killed by Zhang Tiankai and Qian Hu here!
They had been eyeing the chairman's position for a long time!
The only reason why they didn't kill her was to get her, Bao Rongdong's most trusted subordinate, to agree and bow to them as well.
