"I heard that Lin Feng is very ferocious."
"That goes without saying. I saw it with my own eyes. Even someone as strong as the Human Demon Holy Lord was defeated by him."
"Is that true? The legendary Thirteenth Holy Lord?"
"That's an expert from the Ancient Era!"
…
The surrounding area was filled with heated discussions. It was extremely lively.
The Human Demon Holy Lord was very famous in the circle of Saints. Although it was not often mentioned, everyone knew about the existence of the Thirteenth Holy Lord. Now, Lin Feng had defeated the Human Demon Holy Lord in front of so many people. Naturally, it would attract attention.
Especially since he was one of the seven successors to the throne.
"I don't know if it's true or not." Palace Master Ju Yan's face was full of arrogance.
Time had not left many traces on her body. As strong as Palace Master Ju Yan was, she had long been able to maintain her skin's liveliness and beauty. Palace Master Ju Yan controlled the Orange Moon Palace alone, and her influence spread across the entire Yueru County. She had always been a person above others and did not need to pretend to be nice to anyone.
"Of course it's true." King Yan glanced at her and said directly.
He was a straightforward person. If he liked someone, he would say anything. Naturally, he would not be stingy with his praise for Lin Feng.
King Lu and King Ju did not express their opinions. Huang Zu smiled but did not say anything. As for the other popular candidate, Ke Ke, he was expressionless.
"Who saw the entire battle?" Palace Master Ju Yan raised her eyebrows. "Did you see the Human Demon Holy Lord being defeated?"
King Yan frowned slightly. Indeed, he did not see the entire battle.
Just as Palace Master Ju Yan said, he did not see the Human Demon Holy Lord being defeated. However …
"If he wasn't defeated, why would he run away without a fight?" King Yan said with a burning voice.
"How would I know?" Palace Master Ju Yan shrugged. "Maybe this Lin Feng and the Human Demon Holy Lord are in cahoots. Maybe it's all part of the Human Demon Holy Lord's scheme?" Palace Master Ju Yan raised her head and swept her beautiful eyes across the crowd. "Do you think it's possible for a Saint-level expert to defeat a Saint-level expert?"
The crowd did not speak. They pondered Palace Master Ju Yan's words.
Indeed, it was not without reason.
"In my opinion, this Lin Feng is most likely the Human Demon Holy Lord's disciple." Palace Master Ju Yan's gaze was sharp, and the corners of her mouth curled up coldly. "The Human Demon Holy Master knew that it would be difficult for him to convince the masses if he took the position of Master of the Southern Region. Therefore, he pushed Lin Feng onto the stage and even used his own name to help Lin Feng. It was a very clever move."
Palace Master Ju Yan's words caused an uproar.
"That makes sense."
"That's right, I've never heard of a Saint defeating a Saint King, and the Human Demon's Holy Lord is only a mid-level Saint King. The difference between their levels is too great."
"That seems to be the case. In the end, I didn't see the Human Demon Holy Lord suffer any injuries. Then, he mysteriously disappeared under Lin Feng's attacks. If that's the case, the two of them might really have colluded to set up this trap. We've all been deceived! "
"I think it must be. Palace Master Ju Yan has a discerning eye for gold!"
…
There was a huge uproar.
Even King Ju and the others were silent. Everyone looked at Emperor Shun, wanting to know what he thought.
With a faint smile, Emperor Shun did not refute or confirm. He only said softly, "Whether it's true or not, we'll know in a while." Everyone nodded when they heard that. Indeed, there was no need to argue here. Whether Lin Feng was truly talented or just bluffing, they would soon find out.
"Hmph." Palace Master Ju Yan said proudly, "I'm afraid there's no time."
Palace Master Ju Yan looked at Emperor Shun. "If Lin Feng still hasn't arrived by the time the time is up, what will happen?"
Emperor Shun's eyes flashed. "With my status, any decision will be unfair. If Lin Feng really can't make it in time, the six of you plus me will make the decision with seven votes. "Palace Master Ju Yan's eyes flashed as she nodded. Clearly, she was very satisfied with this answer.
The other five were slightly startled. Light flashed in their eyes as they each had their own thoughts.
They looked at the compass. There wasn't much time left.
Could Lin Feng really make it in time?
…
…
"Thirty seconds left." Palace Master Ju Yan smiled faintly.
King Yan frowned slightly. He looked around anxiously, but there was no trace of him.
Those who should have come had come long ago. That little bit of time did not matter.
Those who could not make it naturally would not make it.
At this moment, the surrounding Saints were also very curious. They looked around from time to time, but there was no trace of him. Everyone was discussing spiritedly. They did not know what had happened to Lin Feng. Even Emperor Shun's eyes flashed slightly, but he did not say anything.
At this moment, he was still Emperor Shun, the judge of the throne competition.
Even if he knew that Lin Feng could be the future Human Emperor and had sufficient strength, but …
He would not be biased.
…
"Ten seconds." Palace Master Ju Yan smiled meaningfully.
The other five successors were expressionless, but their flashing eyes showed that they were thinking about something. King Lu, King Ju, Huang Lu … They had all seen Lin Feng's strength with their own eyes. They knew that if Lin Feng participated in the competition, they were destined to be 'accompanying'.
However, if Lin Feng was absent and disqualified, what would happen?
"Five." Palace Master Ju Yan said softly.
Her voice was charming and magnetic, but it was especially harsh.
"Four."
"Three."
Palace Master Ju Yan smiled and paused.
She could not sense any aura approaching. Lin Feng was already too late.
"Zero."
The last word came out from her sexy lips and fell into the depths of everyone's hearts. The five people's expressions changed at this moment.
There was also a commotion around them.
"He really didn't come!"
"What happened to Lin Feng?"
"I don't know. Is he disqualified?"
…
It was a mess.
Lin Feng was undoubtedly the focus of all the attention in the competition.
His absence was a huge blow to the final battle. It was a huge blow, and the Battle for the Emperor's Throne seemed to have changed in an instant. Everyone looked at each other, and then their gazes fell on Emperor Shun.
"According to the procedure, we should draw lots now." Emperor Shun said softly.
Everyone nodded in agreement. Emperor Shun did not say how to 'deal' with Lin Feng, but Palace Master Ju Yan did not want to.
"Before we draw lots, should we first decide on something?" Palace Master Ju Yan looked at everyone and raised her head proudly like a peacock. Her magnetic voice covered the entire place, attracting everyone's attention. Emperor Shun's eyes flashed, and the other five had their own thoughts.
The scene seemed to freeze for a moment.
But in an instant —
"Whoosh!" Like a shooting star, a majestic aura came from afar at an extremely fast speed.
Everyone looked up. Palace Master Ju Yan's beautiful eyes flashed with surprise. Then, a deep light flashed, and a gloomy coldness flashed. Such speed, such a powerful aura, instantly caused a series of exclamations. Everyone opened their eyes wide.
Pa! Lin Feng landed from the sky and stepped lightly on the ground.
"Sorry for being late." Lin Feng smiled slightly and looked around. He was quite apologetic.
However, there was absolute silence. No one dared to speak. This atmosphere seemed to have a faint, silent pressure. Lin Feng made a sound of surprise. He glanced at the time indicated on the compass, and knew that he was' late '.
"Do you think that an 'sorry' can be settled?" Palace Master Ju Yan suddenly spoke. In fact, if she did not speak, no one else would speak.
Palace Master Ju Yan's beautiful eyes swept across the other five people. She felt indignant, but she seemed to have been forced to stand out.
Lin Feng's eyes lit up. He smiled and said, "We haven't drawn lots yet, right?"
"That's a different matter." Palace Master Ju Yan raised her head and said proudly, "Being late is being late. If you don't even have the basic concept of time, how can you be the Lord of the Southern Region? Looking at the overall situation from the details clearly shows that you don't care about the competition at all. You don't have any sense of responsibility for the Southern Region. "
His voice was sonorous and resonant, causing a heated discussion in the surroundings.
Lin Feng frowned slightly. He also felt that this was troublesome.
This luxurious woman in front of him was overbearing and eloquent. She was not easy to deal with. It was a small matter, but after she said it, it became bigger and bigger. This … seemed to be her goal. She was quite hostile towards him.
"Then what do you want?" Lin Feng said slowly. His eyes were clear, but he was not in a hurry.
Palace Master Ju Yan's mouth curved. She glanced at the other five people and finally at Emperor Shun. "I wonder if Emperor Shun's words still count?"
Emperor Shun nodded slightly. "Of course."
"Good!" Palace Master Ju Yan seemed to be afraid that Emperor Shun would go back on his words. "In that case, let's start the voting." Looking at Lin Feng, Palace Master Ju Yan revealed a confident smile. "Each person has one vote. There are seven votes in total. No one can abstain. The minority obeys the majority. I move — "
"Lin Feng is disqualified!" Palace Master Ju Yan's beautiful eyes shone brightly.
Whoosh!
The crowd immediately became rowdy. It was very lively.
Who would have thought that before the competition for the throne had even begun, there would already be such a huge battle to watch? This was completely unexpected.
"Oh?" Lin Feng was also quite surprised.
He glanced at the crowd. He did not expect things to turn out like this.
Voting on him?
Lin Feng laughed hoarsely. He hadn't even become the ruler of the Southern Region, but he was already being tested. According to Emperor Shun, even if he became the Lord of the Southern Region in the future, the seven of them, including Emperor Shun, would form a new power structure in the Southern Region. They would not only assist him, but also restrict him to some extent.
Now, he was testing his strength.
…
"I object!" King Yan was the first to shout. His eyes were shining and his voice was very firm.
His declaration caused another uproar among the crowd. He was completely at odds with Palace Master Ju Yan. His imposing manner was supporting Lin Feng to the end.
"King Yan …" Lin Feng's eyes flashed. He already had a plan in mind.
Actually, excluding other factors, at this' critical 'moment, the attitude of these six people towards him seemed to be quite good. Furthermore, he would also be able to understand everyone's personalities and other factors. Speaking of which … it was not a bad idea.
One vote against one vote!
Palace Master Ju Yan's beautiful eyes darkened. Although she was unhappy, she did not say anything.
Because she was very confident.
"I agree!"
