Cheng Jipiao climbed onto the high platform and spoke with a smile.
He was not wearing a beast mask, and everyone could see this smiling face at a glance, and when they realized who this face and name were...
"Master Cheng?"
The audience suddenly exploded.
Everyone stood up one after another.
"???"
"So, Hall Master Cheng is always in Box 1? I thought it was just a representative of the Holy Temple..."
"Oh my God! Why did Master Cheng come to the scene?"
"Are you afraid something big is going to happen?"
Seeing Cheng Ji, the young people who came out with their families and sect elders all had excited faces, as if they had seen a legendary idol.
However, the faces of the older generation in the private seats and boxes turned dark.
Some people even contacted the night owl waiter on the spot: "I want to leave."
However, the only reply they received was: "Sorry, it can't be done."
Many of the highest powers in the major realms within the royal city have already gained traction before.
As for the overlord-level forces that are very self-reliant and not afraid of risks, such as Daxian Tianzong, Guiyin Pavilion, etc., they had no intention of leaving early.
Naturally, they did not know the plan of the Holy Temple.
When Cheng Ji appeared, they immediately stood up and wanted to leave, but were stopped by the waiter.
"What do you night cats do for food? You didn't even notify Cheng Ji when he came?" Leng Qi, the leader of Daxian Tianzong, was angry.
He really didn't expect that in box No. 1, the one who watched him Leng Qi snatch three void tokens would be the master of Cheng Jicheng, not an ordinary representative of the Holy Temple.
What the heck, are you letting people have fun playing?
If Cheng Ji arrives at the scene, can something good happen?
When this guy took office as a new official, he didn't even start to burn the first of the three fires.
After holding it back until now, almost the older generation in the royal city knew that this old fox was holding back his ultimate move.
At this moment, Cheng Ji appeared on the scene. In addition to casting spells that he had been preparing for a long time, could he just go on stage to say hello to everyone and look familiar?
"Cheng Ji, why are you here?"
Ming Yue, the major of Guiyin Pavilion, was also stunned by her beautiful eyes. She immediately checked her memory and found that tonight, she took a picture of a Void Token.
broken……
It's like being caught on the spot by a judge for doing bad things. They can tell you face-to-face whether you are alive or dead, and you can't help but tell them.
Who will not panic?
This is the headquarters of the King of Hell in Box 122. Huang Quan, the golden masked man in the seat, was a little surprised at this moment.
But he was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud: "Yes, what I can think of, how could the Holy Temple not think of it?"
Bianhuahuakai on one side became worried: "Master Huang Quan, then we..."
"It doesn't matter."
Huang Quan waved his hand and said with a smile: "The most I can guess is that the Holy Temple has summoned red and white clothes to search the whole place, but they are only looking for a possibility, and the chance of finding us is not high."
After saying this, even the taciturn Jiuyou Ghost Infant raised their eyebrows.
"White clothes?"
Just like the red coat, the natural enemy of the ghost beast body.
Almost all underground organizations such as the King of Hell are on Bai Yi's blacklist.
In daily dealings, the person I miss the most is also Bai Yi!
When I heard the word "白衣" uttered, the nerves of Jiuyou Guiying and the flowers blooming on the other shore were affected.
But in just a moment, the two of them came back to their senses.
Yes, I am usually afraid of Bai Yi. I am on a mission alone and I might die if I bump into Bai Yi.
However, now, both of them are following Mr. Huang Quan.
Mr. Huangquan is not panicking now, how panicky are they?
The emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is?
…
On the high platform.
Cheng Ji didn't deliberately suppress it, he just waited for a moment.
After everyone's commotion calmed down and everyone listened attentively, he began to smile and said: "There is something I want to announce."
These words are extremely overbearing.
Everyone could tell that Palace Master Cheng came here not to discuss matters, but with an unquestionable order.
The commotion was unbearable, Cheng Ji ignored it and continued:
"First of all, let me clarify that the matter here is not the fault of Night Owl. It was the Holy Temple Church that took over the entire venue before the transaction ended. It is none of their business."
"Secondly, knowing that everyone is eager to return home, I will not make any other nonsense."
"If you want to leave, you can just line up and leave through the door of the fair in order according to the order of the boxes."
Until now, most people are still in the dark.
Someone shouted with determination: "May I ask Palace Master Cheng why he acted like this?"
Cheng Ji smiled: "For no reason, I just received rumors... There are some dark forces and ghosts and beasts mixed in at the trade fair site, so we need to investigate thoroughly."
There was a crash, and the audience was shocked.
Dark forces, ghost beast bodies...
Most people were just surprised when they heard it, but it didn't matter to them and just kept their heads up.
But.
Thorough investigation...
When this word came out, everyone present could not sit still.
They all know what this means.
Cheng Ji pressed the void, calmed all the noise, and smiled again:
"Don't panic, everyone. Those who are clean will be cleansed themselves. As long as your criminal level is not high enough to require white clothes or red clothes to intervene, you can go home safely tonight."
boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, the door to box 13 was pushed open heavily.
Leng Qi didn't even wear the animal mask and walked out with a livid face.
"Master Cheng, this is too much!"
"You don't even say hello, you want to catch them all?"
"When did this royal city become a branch of the Holy Temple Parish Hall?"
"Even if you are the headquarters of the Holy Temple in the Central Territory and have announced the city to the outside world, your scope of authority is only responsible for maintaining the stability of the mainland. You have never said that you can have the power of life and death over all the forces in the mainland!"
Leng Qi fluttered his sleeves.
Everyone in the elegant seats was surprised and confused.
Even though some people had speculated that Box 13 was a hegemon-level force, they were also shocked to see Leng Qi appear.
"Sect Master Leng?"
"Daxian Tianzong?"
"Good guy, you deserve to be the Daxian Tianzong, and you deserve to be the overlord-level force!"
"We need people like this to hold up the situation and deal with the rude behavior of the Holy Temple!"
Someone takes the lead.
Naturally, some people started to respond.
No one here wanted to be investigated.
The actual height of authority of the Holy Temple is not as high as the rumors say, it is so big that it can tower over everyone's heads.
So now.
As soon as Leng Qi came forward, the doors to the various boxes were pushed open one after another.
The leaders and representatives of all the major forces took off their animal masks and stood up.
At this moment, all the guys who used to compete with each other began to support their own alliance of forces.
Because if you don't stand up now, you may really have to kneel down all the way later.
But there are exceptions.
Just like Box 209, it is just like a small number of indifferent boxes, no one comes forward.
"Here we come..." Liu Changqing in the box only stared at this scene, a little amazed.
This situation is developing exactly according to the script given by Mr. Xu, it’s amazing!
How could that guy expect that the big forces would rise up to resist?
Although after looking at the scene, Liu Changqing could also understand why the big forces were resisting at this time.
But before that, everything had not happened and everything was peaceful. How could Mr. Xu figure out people's feelings so clearly?
Zhuge Liang beforehand, Zhuge Liang afterward...
Those are two completely different concepts!
Looking at Mr. Xu who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa meditating, muttering words, and still immersed in the very mysterious "Semi-Saint Interpretation" state, Liu Changqing sighed: "At this age, we are not like..."
"Be careful."
Mo Mo spoke up at the right time.
She could not predict whether the situation would develop as Xu Xiaoshou said.
Just like this, no one would have expected that the person waiting in box No. 1 would be the master of the hall, Cheng Jicheng himself.
I believe Xu Xiaoshou never thought of this.
To be honest...
Saw this guy coming out.
Mo Mo only felt that even Xu Xiaoshou somewhat underestimated the importance the Holy Temple attached to the action that was about to begin tonight.
"Why do I feel that these people can't muster the strength to resist?" Mu Zixi looked at the leaders of the major forces who were clearly outnumbered, but vaguely felt that the one named Cheng Ji seemed to be more confident?
"I think too..." Xin Gugu was also a little flustered.
"There is a chance!" Liu Changqing began to pray.
He doesn't want to die.
But if there is any action in the Holy Temple tonight, the first person to be investigated is probably him, who wants to exchange information about ghosts and beasts with others in front of Master Cheng of the Holy Temple...
Liu Changqing was heartbroken.
But at that time, no one would have thought that the person in Box 1 was called Cheng Ji, right?
Xiao Wanfeng scanned the people in the box and felt extremely calm.
Is there anything?
nothing much!
He didn't know what these people were nervous about, and Liu Lu also felt a little uneasy for no reason.
But one look at Mr. Xu...
Xiao Wanfeng was very stable.
As long as Mr. Xu is as calm as himself, this situation should not be a big problem.
He is the successor of the Semi-Saint!
…
on site.
Facing the intimidating crowd around him, Cheng Ji still smiled, but his voice floated up to the sky, looking at the people in the box below, and said again:
"You guys are serious."
"This palace has said that this time it is white clothes and red clothes who take action. They only pay attention to the dark forces and ghosts and beasts, and do not pay attention to everyone's own family affairs."
"Similarly, organizations in white and red are above the Holy Temple, which is called 'detachment'."
"If they want to investigate people, the Holy Temple can only do their best to cooperate. I hope you can understand this."
After a pause and looking at the gloomy-looking guys below, Cheng Ji remained indifferent and continued his words of persuasion:
"You are all the heads of major forces, so you naturally understand how difficult it is for these seniors who have been fighting on the front line to stabilize the mainland for so many years."
"When they have information, they will naturally investigate thoroughly."
"Don't worry! This time is really not a thorough investigation of the Holy Temple. It will not endanger your business, industry and a series of practical problems..."
"Master Cheng!" Leng Qi, below, became impatient and interrupted loudly.
Cheng Ji narrowed his eyes and turned his head to look over.
If he remembered correctly, this person had always been the one setting the pace.
Leng Qi sneered and said, "Hallmaster Cheng is speaking very grandly. The seniors in white and red have to perform tasks, but in my opinion, these are just words, right?"
"Can you guarantee that during this thorough investigation, apart from the seniors in white and red, there will be no threshold like the Holy Temple?"
Cheng Jifang wanted to reply, but Leng Qi interrupted him with a loud voice:
"Master Cheng!"
"There are some things that you can't just do tonight."
"Even when Palace Master Jiang was still there, there were cooperation, competition, and back-and-forth relationships with our various forces."
As he spoke, Leng Qi looked at the people around him. Everyone nodded frequently, with a look of approval, and then he turned back to look at Cheng Ji.
"This gesture of yours..."
Raising his head high, Leng Qi had a sarcastic look in his eyes: "Overriding? To be honest, Leng doesn't like it very much!"
Cheng Ji's smile froze on his face.
At the moment, he is high in the sky, and Leng Qi and others are on the second floor.
To say it is overriding is not an exaggeration.
But, that's not important!
The important thing is...
Since Cheng Ji took office, countless people have pointed fingers and said this and that.
Inside and out, it’s nothing more than:
"This matter was not done very well, and it lost the magnanimity of Palace Master Jiang at that time."
"That matter was done without a pattern. If it were the former Palace Master Jiang, he would definitely not do it this way."
Cheng Ji thought to himself, he is not a river goose either!
A good old man like Jiang Bian Yan, whose tenderness turns into water, uses yin to counteract yang, which he Cheng Ji even disdains.
Why do people always mention such an ex in front of me?
"Are you teaching me how to do things in this palace?" At that moment, Cheng Ji's eyes were slightly opened, his beard and hair were flying, and his hands were tightened, and Leng Qi was snatched up from the air.
The scene is about to break out.
Everyone below felt their hearts shrink and immediately became nervous.
Cheng Ji is not a wild goose by the river.
The Cheng family is behind them, so they are also killing Dao.
Now, the Zhan Dao War is about to begin?
However, the situation was not as everyone expected.
Leng Qi, who was detained in the sky, was not angry but smiled: "Dianzhu Cheng, do you want to touch me? I just don't know, in what capacity do you intend to touch me, Dianzhu Cheng?"
"personal?"
"The son of the old man of the Cheng family?"
"Or, the identity of the master of the branch hall of the Holy Temple?"
Leng Qi showed no resistance.
He also killed Dao, but he was detained in the air like this, without any image, but he believed in Cheng Ji and did not dare to do anything.
Because no matter which identity he is, Cheng Ji cannot take action.
As soon as he made a move, he was stunned!
All identities are gone!
Tonight's plan for the Holy Temple will be completely ruined by everyone's resistance!
Who would have thought that even though Cheng Ji was so irritated, he still remained conscious.
He loosened the hand that controlled the binding rules, no longer looked at Leng Qi, but turned his eyes to look at the people below.
"This palace, seeing that Sect Leader Leng was unwilling to be overtaken by others, invited people to come to the sky. Don't panic, everyone."
When the conversation changed, Cheng Ji glanced coldly at everyone below and said calmly:
"But I also want to know..."
"Who else is so unwilling to be overridden and wants to resist the search orders of white clothes and red clothes?"
Leng Qi's sarcastic smile immediately froze in mid-air.
Resist the white-coated and red-coated search orders?
How could he ever say that?
If Cheng Ji pulls down this shit basin, I'm afraid Leng Qi will die on the spot!
"Master Cheng, this is going too far. Leng never said that I would resist..." Leng Qi struggled to defend.
However, before he could finish speaking, Cheng Ji looked past him as if no one else was around, continued to stare coldly down, and interrupted directly:
"I would like to ask you one last question."
"Those who want to stand in this position, who want to resist the search orders of white clothes and red clothes..."
