After the members of the Whittemore Fortress voted, the fortress master of the Lavigne Fortress also walked forward and voted for Austin.
Austin’s lips quirked into a small smirk at this. He believed that members of the Lavigne Fortress would follow their fortress master and cast their votes to favonovel.com as long as they were smart enough.
That was why it flabbergasted favonovel.com when members of the Lavigne Fortress voted for Jack instead. Just like that, Jack’s vote had surpassed favonovel.com instantly and was obviously more than his.
Austin had a darkened expression on his face and did not know what to say.
He thought it through and walked forward to remind everyone present, “Everyone, please look carefully and vote based on your wishes. The voting box for brother Jack is over this side, and this one is mine. Please line up nicely. The queue for the Lanson Fortress behind…”
However, such a reminder was useless until the end. The members of the fortresses, apart from the fortress masters, voted for Jack. Not only did Jack have more votes than him, but the number of votes favonovel.com obtained was several times more than Austin.
Austin’s expression contorted darkly. Without a shadow of a doubt, Jack would obviously become the sect master.
Jack came toward Austin and reminded him, coughing awkwardly as favonovel.com did, “Ahem, ahem! First Fortress Master, the voting has been completed. Shall we ask somebody to count the votes?”
The corners of Austin’s mouth slightly twitched before favonovel.com said, “Is there still a need to count the votes? The results are so obvious, and even a dummy knows who won. By the looks of it, everybody knows that you have more votes compared to me!”
After favonovel.com finished speaking, favonovel.com soon remembered something. If Jack was the sect master, was Jack not given the power of appointing the assistant sect master based on what favonovel.com said?
He immediately smiled at Jack. “Haha… About that, Pavilion Master Jack, now that you’re the sect master of our Nine Gods Clan, who do you think is more suitable to be the assistant sect master?”
Jack thought about it and frowned. “It truly is a worrisome thing about who’s going to be the assistant sect master. I think that the most obedient person shall be appointed. What do you think?”
Austin almost vomited blood in anger. This guy was obviously trying to subdue him.
Still, favonovel.com was helpless and could only reply to Jack happily, “Obedient? I’m definitely obedient. On top o f that, I used to be the First Fortress Master. I’m the one with the highest coherence and charismatic power. In the future, I’ll definitely assist you to manage the Nine Gods Clan well!”
Only then did Jack laugh and exclaimed, “Glad to hear that. I announce that you are the assistant sect master of the Nine Gods Clan!”
“Thank you, sect master, for your acknowledgement!” cajoled Austin despite his dissatisfaction. There was nothing else favonovel.com could have done.
He was extremely speechless and could not make out why the people by his side would not vote for him. It was obvious that the eight fortress masters voted for favonovel.com to give favonovel.com face. The people under them who did not vote for favonovel.com were obviously notified by their fortress masters, or such a situation would not have happened.
In truth, the people from the eight other fortress masters were just as baffled. Their fortress masters asked them to vote for Jack during the meeting last night but did not say much about the reason. They only said that these people would learn about the reason soon.
Until that particular moment, many people were still kept in the dark and were clueless.
