The current situation was very strange. They could not afford to offend either the Temple Master or the Deputy Temple Master.
Lin Mengya looked around and roughly understood what the crowd was thinking.
Although this matter concerned the interests of all the families, no one would act rashly before the Temple Master and the Deputy Temple Master decided on a winner.
More importantly, he wanted to reap some benefits from this matter.
At this level, they were not so devout in their beliefs.
She curled her lips.
Since no one wanted to be the one to stand out, she would be the one to do it.
She raised her voice to the Deputy Temple Master and said, "Deputy Temple Master, what is going on? You have to give us an explanation. "
The Deputy Temple Master glared at her with a murderous look in his eyes.
"Why are you so impatient, Master Gong? No matter what, this is an internal affair of the Divine Temple. Although you have a close relationship with the Temple Master, you can't slander me. Or could it be that Patriarch Gong is so impatient that you want to pin the crime on me? "
Ha, he was trying to bite back at her.
"I dare not. Since it is an internal affair of the Divine Temple, it is better for both of you to make the decision. But I am a little confused. Both of you have your own opinions, so who should we listen to?"
She pretended to be very confused and knocked on her forehead.
"If the Temple Master is lying, why did he call for this succession ceremony?"
The Deputy Temple Master was not stupid. He could tell that she wanted to speak up for the Temple Master. He snorted and said, "Maybe someone is unwilling to accept the fact that his power has fallen to someone else, so he went back on his words."
"Oh!" She nodded thoughtfully and continued to ask, "If that is the case, then the Temple Master just needs to prevent the successor from appearing. Why did he have to drag you into it? You are not the successor, are you? "
Even though she spoke in an unhurried manner, the Vice Hall Master broke out in a cold sweat.
Lin Mengya did not care what he looked like now. She pressed on and forced the Deputy Temple Master to expose himself.
"If the Temple Master goes back on his words, then the person he should hurt the most is his successor. Deputy Temple Master, you are at most an innocent bystander. But now, it seems like the Deputy Temple Master is going to inherit the Temple Master's position. Why don't you tell us yourself why? "
She was smiling, and her attitude was not bad.
However, the Deputy Palace Master felt a chill run down his spine. He took a few steps back and glared at the other party with bloodshot eyes.
All of this was planned by them!
The moment her second brother returned to her side, Lin Mengya knew that it was time to pull in the net.
She looked directly at the Deputy Hall Master on the high platform and said clearly, "Therefore, the cause of this entire matter is because you coveted the position of Hall Master. Not only did they want to harm the Temple Master, but they also wanted to harm the Crown Prince. As long as these two people are dead, you can take advantage of the chaos and replace them! "
The crowd burst into an uproar as soon as he said that.
The Vice Palace Lord's face darkened as he denied, "Gong Family Head, no matter how powerful your Gong Family is, you can't slander the Sacred Sanctum's Vice Palace Lord. This is a grave crime!"
"You're the one who blasphemed God."
As soon as the other voice rang out, it had the absolute upper hand.
Long Tianhao slowly walked over from the other side of the platform.
In his hand was the Chief Elder of the Holy Sorcerer Tribe.
However, at this moment, the Chief Elder was no longer in high spirits. His face was pale and swollen. It was obvious that he had been "treated" well by Long Tianhao.
"You, why are you here!"
The Vice Palace Master's voice was already sharp and hoarse, like an arrow at the end of its flight.
He stared at the man, and his eyes were filled with deep jealousy.
Until now, he had not given up his obsession with Long Tianhao's body.
Seeing his expression, Lin Mengya sneered coldly in her heart.
Great, how dare he covet her man.
In a moment, she would let him die without even knowing how he died!
Long Tianhao threw the Chief Elder at the feet of the Deputy Palace Lord.
"He knows all the 'good things' you have done. Deputy Palace Lord, what else do you have to say now?"
The Deputy Palace Lord, who was trembling with anger just now, calmed down now.
"Deputy Palace Lord, please save me! You can't ignore me! "
The Chief Elder of the Holy Sorcerer Tribe's eyes were covered with a piece of black cloth. He did not dare to move too much, but he kept groping around, trying to find his companions.
However, in front of the Deputy Palace Lord, he was just a good-for-nothing.
"Hahahahaha, well, since you all know, I won't hide it from you!"
The Deputy Palace Lord revealed his ferocious face.
"Now, it's time for you to show your loyalty to me!"
After saying this, the group of people below the platform seemed to be inexplicably nervous.
But after waiting for a while, nothing happened.
Everyone looked at each other. What had just happened?
On the platform, the Deputy Palace Lord was also stunned.
No! The day before, he had used the Pupil Sorcery of the Chief Elder and the Holy Sorcerer Tribe to control some people here.
Why did they not listen to his orders now?
Lin Mengya crossed her arms and looked at him leisurely.
Were they stupid?
Of course, no one would listen to him. The Chief Elder had been under her reverse hypnosis, and she had given the order to the Chief Elder before she left.
Anyone who was under the influence of the Chief Elder's Pupil Sorcery would be released later.
In addition, there were so many people here, and the Deputy Palace Lord was afraid of being seen through, so he did not experiment.
He was too confident about the Pupil Sorcery of the Holy Sorcerer Tribe, so he gave up his natural caution.
"No, no, it's impossible!"
The Deputy Palace Lord grabbed the Chief Elder crazily and tore off the black cloth.
The Chief Elder, who was exposed to the bright light, suddenly screamed. Two streaks of blood flowed down from the corners of his eyes.
"Ah — my eyes, my Pupil Sorcery!"
The Chief Elder, who symbolized his status in the tribe, was instantly lost.
He screamed crazily, looking miserable and horrifying.
The surrounding people did not understand what was going on until Long Tianhao pulled the Chief Elder back again.
"This man is the Chief Elder of the Holy Sorcerer Tribe. He used his Pupil Sorcery to collude with the Deputy Palace Lord and try to control me, as well as all of you."
The Holy Sorcerer Tribe? Pupil Sorcery?
At this moment, all the families who knew about the Holy Sorcerer Tribe and the Pupil Sorcery were shocked.
"That was close!"
"I didn't expect the Holy Sorcerer Tribe to be so dangerous!"
"Fortunately, His Highness was prepared. Otherwise, we would be at their mercy now."
The more they talked, the more tense the atmosphere became.
In the end, someone in the crowd suggested to kill the Holy Sorcerer Tribe. Otherwise, the existence of such a person was too dangerous.
Lin Mengya stood in the crowd and did not say a word.
On the stage, the Deputy Palace Lord finally came to his senses. He laughed out loud and then glared at Long Tianhao.
"Do you think I've lost just like that? Boy, you've never known that there is a kind of person in this world that you can never defeat! "
His words made Lin Mengya's heart skip a beat.
At this moment, the Deputy Palace Lord suddenly took out a scimitar from his waist. Just when Lin Mengya thought he was going to attack Long Tianhao, she saw the Deputy Palace Lord chopping his own head with the scimitar.
In an instant, a head flew up into the air.
Such a strange and bloody scene interrupted the discussion of the crowd.
She only felt a sense of uneasiness spreading. The death of the Deputy Palace Lord would probably bring a greater crisis to them.
She exchanged a look with Long Tianhao. Apparently, the Deputy Palace Lord was thinking the same thing.
The head should have fallen to the ground, but no one could see where it was.
Now that there were so many people, she could not check them one by one. But she was sure that the Deputy Palace Lord was relying on this group of people.
But now, they could not make this matter known to the public for the time being.
Otherwise, once the big secret of the transfer of consciousness and the Divine Temple was revealed, they would not be able to suppress the crowd anymore.
Seeing that the culprit was dead, the crowd looked at each other in dismay.
"Are we still going to proceed with the succession ceremony?"
With such an accident, no one was confident.
At this moment, the person who was in charge of pretending to be the Deputy Palace Lord's teacher said calmly, "The traitor has been killed. The succession ceremony will naturally continue. Please wait for a while."
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
They did not expect that a good ceremony would turn out like this.
Lin Mengya gave her second brother a look, and the latter immediately came out of the crowd.
She rubbed the space between her eyebrows, trying to suppress her uneasiness.
At this moment, the person from the Jun Family next to her started to get restless again.
"Since the succession ceremony has been held as usual, shouldn't we have a good chat, Master Gong?"
She glanced at him and saw the dissatisfaction on his face. She did not have the time to joke around with unrelated people.
"I'm not free."
The young man snorted and said, "As long as someone becomes the Deputy Palace Lord, he must fulfill the engagement with the Jun Family! What can the Crown Prince do? Unless he doesn't want to be the Deputy Palace Lord! "
This was not the first time she had seen such a troublemaker.
But she felt that she seemed to have overlooked something important, so she could not be bothered with him for the moment.
"Master, according to the past behavior of the Deputy Palace Lord, he should not have killed himself so easily. Moreover, it is very strange for him to cut off his own head. "
Xiao Yao reminded in the system.
In fact, she also knew that there was always a part in the middle that was not fastened.
On the high platform, the Deputy Palace Lord's body had been dragged down.
She looked at the headless body and suddenly shivered.
"Oh no!"
Although he did not know how they managed to exchange consciousnesses, the Vice Hall Master would definitely have to abandon his current body.
Of course, he would not care about a body that was already useless.
And the reason why he chose to kill himself in front of everyone might be that he wanted to change his body. Under everyone's witness, no one would doubt his death anymore.
But he definitely could not get Long Tianyu's body. Then, who would be the alternative?
