Chapter 421 - The Shocked Wang Jue



Chapter 421 – The Shocked Wang Jue

Yun Lintian glanced at the sky and muttered. "This Hongyue did it again." He was dissatisfied with Hongyue's arrangement. It hadn't been two hours since the second round started yet.

A moment later, white light slowly enveloped Yun Lintian and Hua Wanru, sending them to the pagoda area.

Yun Lintian swept his gaze over the crowd, and he was surprised to see there were only thirty-nine people left… More than thirty-four people had been killed in the second round. This situation was severe more than he imagined.

Yun Lintian paused on Wang Jue and saw the latter had a proud smile on his face, which made Yun Lintian feel weird.

"There are twenty-six villagers and doctors left. We also don't know how many traitors are among us. This situation is not good." Yang Mengli said with a grim expression.

Yun Lintian didn't say anything and had a thoughtful expression on his face. No one knew what he was thinking at the moment.

"Welcome back, everyone. The second round is so exciting, don't you think so?" Hongyue stood with her arms crossed and looked at the crowd playfully. 

The crowd glanced at each other, did not know what to say. However, compared to the first round, everyone was calmer this time.

Seeing everyone was silent, Hongyue clapped her hands and said. "Everyone knows the rules. Let the vote begin!"

Silence blanketed. No one spoke and kept looking around, waiting for someone to say first.

"What should we do now?" Hua Wanru asked through a sound transmission.

Yun Lintian replied instantly. "Just vote for Wang Jue. Tells everyone this."

Hua Wanru glanced at Lin Xinyao and saw the latter nod her head. She then hurriedly told her fellow sisters about it.

At this moment, Wang Jue suddenly said with a grin. "Yun Lintian! Do you have any last word?" 

Yun Lintian swept his gaze over eight people besides Wang Jue. These people were Supreme Hall students. Obviously, they would support Wang Jue. Yun Lintian could see where Wang Jue's confidence came from.

He smiled faintly and said. "Me? Last word? Are you misunderstanding something? It should be you instead."

"Hahaha. Ignorant! Your death door has appeared before you, yet you are still acting cool. How ridiculous." Wang Jue laughed heartily. He turned to the crowd and said. "You might not know this. I have twenty votes in my hand right now. Do you think you can still win this?"

The expression of the crowd changed drastically. They glanced at each other and saw some of them avoided their gazes guiltily. Seeing this, they immediately understood what Wang Jue said was true.

"Ma Xuan! I didn't expect you to do this! Have you gone insane? Do you think he will spare you just because you joined him?" A slender girl scolded a tall man beside her. She was the Sky Hall student.

The tall man, Ma Xuan, lowered his head guiltily and said. "I have no choice. He threatened me to kill you."

"You! How can you be this stupid!?" The slender girl was furious to the point that her body trembled. She didn't know what to say anymore.

Wang Jue grinned satisfactorily and turned to Yun Lintian. "See? Everything is in my hand now. Do you think you can win this?" He glanced at the Frozen Moon Palace's disciples and continued. "All of you should obediently submit to me. Otherwise… hehe."

A few men beside Wang Jue cast their greedy gazes on the Frozen Moon Palace's disciples and started to fantasize about something unhealthy in their minds. They couldn't wait to start the third round now.

Yun Lintian looked at Ma Xuan and the other four Sky Hall students briefly. He was wondering how these people could enter the Sky Hall. Did Principal Tian blindly select them?

Yun Lintian turned to the slender girl and sent a sound transmission to her. "This sister. You can vote for Wang Jue with peace of mind. We will win this for sure."

The slender girl had a surprised look on her face and glanced at Yun Lintian in doubt. Although she had heard about Yun Lintian's deeds before, she didn't fully believe he could get out of this predicament so easily as he said.

Hongyue leaned on the lynching pole and looked at everyone boringly. Somehow, she felt the game wasn't fun anymore and said lazily. "I'll give all of you five seconds to confirm your vote. I will kill anyone who didn't confirm it."

Under Hongyue's threat, everyone hastily confirmed their votes and waited for the result.

Hongyue nodded her head with a satisfied smile and said. "Very well. I'll announce the result now… Oh? Interesting…" She took a glance at Wang Jue and Yun Lintian before saying. "The result is…."

As usual, Hongyue deliberately dragged her voice, causing everyone's body to tense up. They looked at her nervously.

Hongyue quickly turned to Wang Jue and said. "Congratulations to Mister Wang Jue. You got the first rank this time with a total of twenty-five votes!"

As her voice fell, everyone went silent and looked at Wang Jue blankly. Didn't he say he had twenty votes in his hand? How come he got twenty-five votes in the end?

"I-impossible! There must be something wrong!" Wang Jue couldn't believe in his ears and yelled angrily. 

Hongyue squinted her eyes and said with dissatisfaction. "Are you doubting me?"

Wang Jue regained his composure and hurriedly shook his head. "N-no, Princess Hongyue. I'm not doubting you, but can you please recheck it? I think there is something wrong with this."

Hongyue snorted coldly. "Hmph! You really got twenty-five votes. Why don't you ask your people about it?"

Wang Jue's face was unsightly. He swept his gaze over the people beside him and finally paused on Li Na. "It's you! It's must be you!"

Facing Wang Jue's bellow, Li Na did not feel afraid of him in the slightest. On the contrary, a charming smile appeared on her lips. She looked at Wang Jue as if she saw a clown. "Yes. It's me."

As her voice came out, everyone opened their mouth wide, looking at Li Na with incredulity.
