No one can take advantage of public anger
As for the spatial tower that Xiong Da took out in front of everyone, everyone knew what it was. However, knowing was one thing, but they couldn't say it out loud.
After all, Xiong Heizi was the leader of Black Mountain Star, so he couldn't go against him.
However, this matter was too fake, and all the Demon Dwellers who participated in the competition were extremely dissatisfied!
They didn't dare to go against Xiong Heizi, but they hoped that the guy called Zhang Wuji could forcefully push Xiong Da down.
Even though that guy's methods weren't honorable, he was just playing a borderline game. Furthermore, he did it openly and honorably, unlike Xiong Da and Xiong Heizi, the father and son duo. It was simply disgusting!
In comparison, the ten thousand over demons were more inclined to support Zhang Wuji!
This was something that even Xiong Heizi and Xiong Da had never expected. Unknowingly, the two of them had already incurred the wrath of the masses.
Moreover, the anger of the masses was not to be trifled with!
At this moment, as time slowly passed, not only the ten thousand plus Devil Cultivator Experts, even Xiong Da and Xiong Heizi's hearts slowly rose to their throats.
At present, all of the other ten thousand demons had already handed in their missions, and all of the spatial pagodas had been counted in front of everyone, and the rankings were out.
If that guy didn't come back within two hours, then even if the number of Weeping Soul Beasts in the small space pagoda that he turned in later did indeed exceed Xiong Da's 20,000, this matter could be considered a done deal. The Black Mountain Star's Saint trial qualification would belong to Xiong Da.
A game has to have rules. Who told you to be late?
It was precisely because of this that Xiong Da and Xiong Heizi, father and son, were extremely nervous at this moment.
This was because they didn't know if there were more than twenty thousand Weeping Soul Beasts in the spatial pagoda in Zhang Wuji's hands.
After all, when Xiong Da saw it with his own eyes, there were about 16,000 of them at the dead end.
However, for the rest of the time, even if they continued to capture them one by one, it was estimated that it would be about time after capturing more than 16,000 of them.
There was no way the other party would be able to use the same trick a second time.
But what about before that? If the other party had done it once before, then Xiong Da's qualification to enter the Holy Son trial would most likely be lost.
This was also the reason why the father and son duo were so nervous.
Of course, it wasn't that Xiong Heizi didn't think about sending people to secretly kill that brat.
However, Xiong Heizi had a late-stage Blackhole Realm Level 7 expert by his side. In the entire Black Mountain Star, although there were at least twenty Blackhole Realm experts, only three had reached the Blackhole Realm Level 7. Xiong Heizi was a Level 9 expert, and he had two other Level 7 experts under him.
However, this was useless. Even if Xiong Heizi were to personally take action, he would not be able to kill the other party in a short period of time. At that time, if there was a large commotion, it would definitely be seen by the other Devil experts.
He couldn't just kill all the demons, could he?
Putting aside the fact that they were all from the Black Mountain Star, the most important thing was that they had already caused such a huge incident in the Weeping Soul Cave. How were they going to convince the other Demonic Cultivators to enter the Weeping Soul Cave to capture the Weeping Soul Beast?
If he couldn't complete the task given by the High Priest, that would be the real trouble.
It was precisely because he had considered these factors that Xiong Heizi had no choice but to give up on the idea of secretly sneaking over and killing that pair of master and servant.
However, he was not completely unprepared.
In any case, there had been a large number of Spatial Pagodas in the Weeping Soul Cave before, and this matter had to be investigated. In Xiong Heizi's opinion, the person who had secretly done this was most likely attracted by the High Priest's leak of information, and had nothing to do with this pair of master and servant. However, that was not important. Who could be sure of framing someone?
This was Xiong Heizi's plan. If the pair of master and servant did not return within two hours, then it would be fine, but if they did …
Humph, humph, regardless of whether the number of Weeping Soul Beasts in the Spatial Pagodas that Zhang Wuji took out exceeded twenty thousand, Xiong Heizi had no intention of letting this pair of master and servant go. His precious son was not someone who could be bullied as they wished!
"Head Leader Heizi, I think it's about time. How about … you announce the final candidate for the Black Mountain Star's Holy Son trial right now!"
Just as there was only an hour left, the trusted aide sent by the High Priest was obviously a little impatient. He turned his head and glanced at the Head Leader of Black Mountain Star, Xiong Heizi, and then said, "The High Priest is still waiting. I have to hurry back and report!"
Hearing this, Xiong Heizi couldn't help but secretly rejoice. No matter what, he had to first obtain the qualifications for the Black Mountain Star's Holy Son Trial. As for Zhang Wuji and his servant, once this matter was settled, he would be able to deal with them freely when they arrived.
Thinking of this, Xiong Heizi immediately smiled and nodded. At the same time, he stood up immediately.
Just as he was about to announce the final result, two figures flew over from the distant horizon like meteors and landed directly in front of the government affairs hall. They were only two hundred meters away from the temporary high platform where Xiong Heizi and the High Priest's trusted aide were.
Wasn't it Ye Xuan and Li Mosquito who had finally returned in time?
The more than ten thousand Demon Cultivators in the square, when they saw Xiong Heizi stand up and was about to announce the final result, all of their faces were filled with disappointment. But at this moment, when they suddenly saw Ye Xuan and Li Mosquito appear, their hearts trembled. No one knew who shouted Zhang Wuji's name in excitement.
Immediately after, the other Devil Cultivator Rankers all started to shout in response. In just a short breath of time, the three words' Zhang Wuji 'resounded throughout the entire plaza of the Government Affairs Center.
Such a scene, even Ye Xuan was shocked. After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly remembered that this Zhang Wuji seemed to be him. It was a name he casually gave when he registered, but … It had only been a month, and he hadn't done anything? Why was there so many cheers in the blink of an eye?
At the same time, as the ten thousand Demon Cultivators cheered Zhang Wuji's name in unison, Xiong Heizi, who was on the high platform, suddenly changed his expression. He faintly had a bad feeling in his heart.
As a person who had been in a high position for a long time, he was naturally very clear about the people's hearts.
From the looks of it, this guy called Zhang Wuji had clearly won the hearts of the people. Under such circumstances, if he were to go against him, under the anger of the more than ten thousand Demon Dwellers below, the matter of him secretly manipulating things might be exposed in public by some one of them.
Everyone knew it was one thing, but if it was exposed in public, it would not be easy to clean up the mess …
At this moment, he suddenly understood the meaning of those five words: Don't bully the anger of the public!
