Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1702 Public Outrage?

The light slowly faded, and when it disappeared, Ye Qing found himself on the Divine Platform.

The atmosphere on the altar was tense at this moment.

As soon as Ye Qing appeared, an eerie aura enveloped him.

He looked at the big yellow dog, which winked at Ye Qing, and then he walked towards the dog.

"Where's Yan Song?" the big yellow dog asked.

"He...he was murdered! I barely managed to escape!" Ye Qing wailed, "I didn't even find his body..."

"Shut up!" Just then, an angry shout rang out.

Ye Qing was stunned for a moment. He looked over and saw three figures standing at the exit. Li Xingran was glaring at Ye Qing with an impatient look on his face!

The man with spikes on his back was looking at everyone with a hostile expression.

Ye Qing pretended to be afraid and whispered to the big yellow dog, "What's going on now?"

"Did you succeed?" the big yellow dog asked in a low voice.

Ye Qing nodded silently and said, "You've succeeded. What's the situation now?"

"Those people from the Heavenly Mystery Hall want to perform a soul search on everyone who enters below," the big yellow dog said. "However, no one is willing to do so, so the two sides are at an impasse."

"Soul searching?" Ye Qing asked, "Does that guy have soul-related abilities?"

"No, it seems to be a puppet trait, but it's pretty much the same. Once you're controlled by the puppet trait, you become his puppet, and you have to answer whatever he asks!" said the big yellow dog.

"Are these people willing?" Ye Qing asked in surprise.

"Of course they wouldn't want to! These are all geniuses they've carefully cultivated. Who would want to be controlled by this grandson using puppetry?" the big yellow dog said.

"Ji Wuqing, don't go too far! Do you really think the Tianxi Continent is under your control, the Tianji Palace?" At this moment, an old man in the crowd spoke up: "These people are all geniuses carefully cultivated by our sects. You think you can control them as you please? Do you really think you're a god?"

Ji Wuqing glanced at the old man and said, "The Heavenly Mystery Cauldron and the Divine Illumination Diagram are the most precious treasures of our Heavenly Mystery Hall. We cannot allow them to fall into the hands of others. I promise that as long as we find out where they are, I will release them from control!"

"Who knows whether the control will be lifted?" someone else said. "Ji Wuqing, you are ultimately just a peak Saint. Don't act like a big shot here. Tomorrow, I will definitely step aside. If you try to stop me, I don't mind playing with you!"

Those who dare to speak to the Heavenly Mystery Hall in this way may belong to a sect that is weaker than the Seven Gods Sect, but they still have a certain amount of confidence.

Ji Wuqing smiled and said, "In short, without finding the whereabouts of the Heavenly Mystery Cauldron and the Divine Illumination Diagram, none of you are allowed to leave this place. Let me check it sooner rather than later, so that... everyone can leave at dawn tomorrow!"

"Don't even think about it!" the old man said.

Just then, the leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School said, "How about this? The person who stole the Heavenly Mystery Cauldron and the Divine Illumination Diagram used a Magician's ability. Everyone who has entered the Divine Platform only needs to demonstrate their own ability and the intent of their weapon. If it's confirmed to be a Magician's ability, then you can use Puppet Technique, how about that?"

"No, the magician's traits can simulate other traits!" Li Xingran quickly said.

"You think we can't see the characteristics of the simulation while we've been waiting here?" the old man said. "Don't go too far. Do you really think we're made of clay? Even clay figures have some temper!"

"Alright!" Ji Wuqing nodded and said, "Those who have entered the Divine Platform, please come forward one by one!"

The group quickly began to go up.

Upon seeing this, a smile appeared on Ye Qing's lips.

After demonstrating their special abilities, these people then showcased the intent behind their weapons.

There isn't a single person who combines the characteristics of a magician with the intent of a fist.

Soon, it was Ye Qing's turn.

Ye Qing walked to the front and looked at Ji Wuqing, Li Xingran, and the others.

The men all looked rather grim; they still hadn't found it.

"Show us your special abilities and the essence of your weapon!" Li Xingran said. "Hurry up, don't dawdle!"

Ye Qing quickly reached out, and lightning crackled across his right hand. At the same time, a domineering sword intent also emerged. Of course, under the cover of the big yellow dog, his sword intent only appeared to be at the third level.

"Get lost!" Li Xingran said to Ye Qing without any politeness.

Ye Qing clutched her chest and returned to the big yellow dog's side.

Those who entered searched the area, but found no one from the Heavenly Mystery Hall.

At this moment, the old man who had spoken earlier said, "I've tried everything, but I haven't found the person you're looking for!"

"Perhaps he hasn't come out yet, and is still hiding down there!"

Ji Wuqing said, "This doesn't prove anything. What if he has dual characteristics, and has also cultivated the intent of several weapons?"

"Ji Wuqing!" the old man said, "Those who enter the former site of the Heavenly Mystery Hall must be under a hundred years old, at the peak of the Venerable realm, and possess twin characteristics. They must also be able to cultivate the intent of two weapons, one of which has reached the fourth level. Do you think there is such a coincidence?"

Ji Wuqing said, "In short..."

"In short, we've given you a chance out of respect for the Heavenly Mystery Hall!" the old man said. "If you dare to obstruct us tomorrow at Tianming, then we'll settle this with our lives. We have so many sects here, are we afraid of the Heavenly Mystery Hall? If you have the guts, then wipe us all out!"

Ji Wuqing's face was ugly, and Li Xingran's expression was also extremely ugly.

"No rush!" Just then, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School said, "He might still be hiding, but he will definitely come out before dawn. You can test the people who come out later!"

Ji Wuqing nodded!

One after another, more people came out, and each one of them was forced to go to the Heavenly Mystery Hall to show their characteristics and weapon intent!

However, there is no overlap between the Magician's characteristics and the fourth level of Fist Intent!

Time passed quickly, and before we knew it, it was already dawn.
