A split second later, Yun Lintian found himself standing in the exact position he previously had around the pagoda.
One after another, several figures gradually appeared in the square. Compared to the last time they met, around twenty people had gone missing. Undoubtedly, they had been killed by the werewolves.
A worried expression appeared on Yang Mengli as she looked. Soon, she heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing all of her fellow sisters had returned safely.
Yun Lintian swept his gaze through the seventy-odd people in this place and discovered Wang Jue staring at him with a malicious grin. Yun Lintian didn't have to use his brain to know Wang Jue was definitely a werewolf.
He stopped at Wang Jue for a moment and turned to Li Na on the latter's side. Surprisingly, Li Na didn't have an angry expression like before. She merely gave Yun Lintian a cold stare and nothing more.
Yun Lintian paid no attention to her further and moved to Zhao Yebai in the distance. He didn't know who this person was, but he noticed the latter kept glancing in Lin Xinyao's direction since everyone had returned to this place.
"He's Zhao Yebai." Lin Xinyao's voice rang out in his mind.
Yun Lintian's brows raised slightly as he took a deep look at Zhao Yebai.
As if he could perceive Yun Lintian's gaze, Zhao Yebai retracted his gaze from Lin Xinyao and turned to look at him. According to the information he got, Yun Lintian was another abnormally powerful individual, not inferior to Lin Xinyao in the slightest. Therefore, he needed to get rid of him first.
Zhao Yebai was calm on the outside, but he constantly exchanged words with Wang Jue through a sound transmission. They were discussing how to get rid of Yun Lintian and Lin Xinyao.
At this moment, Hongyue glanced at the crowd and grinned in satisfaction. "Not bad. At least twenty people have died on the first night. Come on, werewolves. I hope all of you can do a better job next time."
She then waved her hand, and a tall pole with a long robe hanging down appeared before the pagoda. The appearance of this lynching pole caused everyone to feel afraid, and none of them dared to utter a sound. Without any explanation, they understood what the use of it was.
Hongyue said. "As you can see, I have a robe here. Anyone who got a guilty vote will be executed on the spot. So all of you better think carefully before making a final vote. Before going to the next phrase, I will explain a few rules first."
"Anyone can send out a person's name that you're thinking he or she is a werewolf. The most voted one will be selected to enter a trial. After this person gives a defensive speech, everyone will have to make a final vote again… Remember, all of you have only one chance. No matter what the result is, all of you will be sent out and start a second round."
Yun Lintian listened to Hongyue's words carefully and felt something was missing. He suddenly asked. "Princess Hongyue, how are we going to vote?"
Hongyue turned to look at Yun Lintian and said with a playful smile. "Are you trying to find information through this? Sorry, you have to be disappointed again." She turned her head to look at the crowd and said. "Everyone can just think of a person's name and appearance in your mind and make a confirmation to vote."
Yun Lintian stared at Hongyue attentively. His mind wasn't focused on the voting system but on how Hongyue knew everyone's thoughts. Before this, he had muttered out, and there was nothing wrong with Hongyue could hear it. However, when he thought of it again, it seemed Hongyue had read his mind directly instead of hearing his complaint.
Even if she was the mythical realm's owner, she couldn't possibly read people's minds, right? Yan Qi and even Bai Xiaoyun, the Primordial White Tiger God, could not do that. Was Hongyue an existence above the White Tiger God? Yun Lintian doubted that.
The crowd glanced at each other and nodded their head, expressing their understanding.
Hongyue suddenly clapped her hands and said loudly. "Since everyone understood the rules now. Let the vote begin!"
Immediately, Yun Lintian contacted Li Qiang through a sound transmission. "Have you met other werewolves?"
Hearing this, Li Qiang's face kept changing a few times before replying. "I have met one." He then took a glance at a tall woman from the Arcane Hall on his left side and said. "Her name is Ji Yu."
Yun Lintian followed Li Qiang's gaze and saw the tall woman who happened to look at him. She was clearly nervous as if she was hiding something.
Yun Lintian shifted his gaze back to Li Qiang and said coldly. "I hope you didn't lie to me. Trust me, I have countless ways to make you regret later."
Li Qiang immediately felt a chill running down his spine. His entire body was drenched in cold sweat instantly. He hurriedly replied. "I swear what I said is true! There's no point in me to lie at all."
Yun Lintian said nothing further and secretly sent a sound transmission to the woman, Ji Yu. "Are you a werewolf?"
Ji Yu visibly shuddered under Yun Lintian's question, but instead of being nervous like before, her face was replaced with confusion as she responded. "No, Senior Brother Yun. I'm not a werewolf."
Judging from her reaction, Yun Lintian was certain she didn't lie to him. But why did Li Qiang choose to flame her? Clearly, there were other better targets to select from.
Ji Yu saw Yun Lintian had no reaction. She bit her lips and sent another sound transmission to him. "I-I know who is a werewolf. It's Li Qiang from the Starlight Hall. I have seen him chasing after Liang San."
Hearing this, Yun Lintian suddenly found it interesting.. He asked her directly. "Do you have an enmity with him?"
