Chapter 298: Public Controlling (2)

Tian Jiuyi heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing Lin Taixu. He took a deep breath and stepped forward. "Everyone, please listen to my explanation first. In fact, I don't have a way to get out of that place by myself. The reason I can appear here is that someone had sent me out, and that person had entrusted me instructions on how to bring everyone out of the forest…." He pointed at Bai Qingyi and continued. "Look, there are others that came out with me. You can ask them."

Everyone turned toward Bai Qingyi, and the latter nodded his head before saying. "Everyone, I am the third young miss of the Bai clan, Bai Qingyi. I can vouch for Brother Tian's words with my clan's reputation. We were indeed had been sent out of the Fallen Dragon Forest by someone, and that person had given us a solution to save everyone."

Afterward, Qin Yiran stepped forward and said loudly. "Everyone, my name is Qin Yiran from the Qin clan. I think everyone should know me as the first ranking holder in the knowledge test. Counting my own reputation, I definitely won't dare to deceive everyone. As Young Master Tian and Miss Bai said, we had truly been sent out of the forest by someone."

Hearing this, the crowd gradually calmed down and did not know what to say for a moment. Although they didn't fully believe in Tian Jiuyi's words, the vouches from Bai Qingyi and Qin Yiran made them rethink it.

Tian Jiuyi quickly added. "I dare not guarantee the perfect outcome, but please, let us try."

At this moment, Peng Haoye chuckled and said. "Do you think we are easy to deceive, Nephew Tian? I refuse to believe there's someone among the participants having such an exceptional formation knowledge that even better than Principal Tian himself." He turned to the crowd and asked. "Do you all really think so?"

"That's right! Do you think we are three-year-old kids? How could there be a highly talented formation master among kids?" The middle-aged man, who got 'punched' by Tian Jiuyi, jumped up and shouted.

The crowd that was already calmed down, once again, erupted with a clamor. That was right! How could there be such a person among the participants? 

"I know that person, and I can guarantee he's indeed that talented." Seeing the crowd was about to shout again, Han Bingling had to interject.

Unlike Lin Taixu, who was relatively unknown to the mass, Han Bingling was a well-known figure in Northern Continent. Even though she had been 'defeated' by Peng Haoye during the previous confrontation, her status was still there. No one dared to take her words lightly.

"Oh? Care to elaborate more?" Peng Haoye's interest was piqued. Truthfully, he caused a fuss earlier was to find out the identity of this person Tian Jiuyi mentioned. As long as he could get the information about this person, eliminating him wouldn't be a problem.

"His name is Yun Lintian. I think everyone should be familiar with this name if you have stayed in the city long enough. He's the person who confronted Lin Wuwei in order to bring justice for innocent lives. With this alone, I believe all of you can believe in his character. Such a righteous person definitely wouldn't joke about people's lives if he isn't confident… Why don't you give him a chance once?" Han Bingling said calmly. 

Her gaze swept over the middle-aged man, who intentionally caused trouble, and gave a warning. Without a doubt, if he dared to instigate the crowd again, Han Bingling would reap his life right away.

The crowd went silent, and uncertainty could be seen written on their faces. Some even started to discuss in a low voice and wanted to let Tian Jiuyi try it.

Peng Haoye's eyes turned cold upon hearing this. He had paid attention to Yun Lintian before, but he never knew about his formation talent. He didn't expect him to be a high-level formation master at this young age. It was no wonder; he was ranked quite high on the Poison Valley's killing list.

"Heh, Palace Master Han. Are you saying you will take responsibility if a mishap occurs?" Peng Haoye smiled shrewdly. 

Surprisingly, Han Bingling responded in almost an instant. "Yes. I will take responsibility for everything."

Peng Haoye stared at Han Bingling for a while and nodded his head slowly. "Very well. Everyone should hear it, right?" He then turned to Tian Jiuyi. "Go ahead, Nephew Tian. I hope you won't disappoint everyone here."

Tian Jiuyi's eyes flashed with a cold glint as he replied. "Naturally… Let's go." Following that, he quickly brought Yun Lingwei toward the entrance under Peng Haoye's cold gaze.

In order to prevent Peng Haoye from playing a trick, Han Bingling quickly brought Lin Xinyao, Mumu, and Linlin to follow Tian Jiuyi and stood on guard.

Seeing this, Peng Haoye laughed slightly and found a chair to sit down, calmly watching Tian Jiuyi and Yun Lingwei busy with the formation… No one knew what he was thinking right now.

Yun Lingwei looked at the formation for a while before taking out a bunch of formation stones and started inscribing runes on them.

When Tian Jiuyi saw this, he nodded his head in admiration. It was as he expected. Yun Lintian definitely inherited the formation profound art from her. The way she inscribed the runes was precisely the same as Yun Lintian.

Sadly, Tian Jiuyi didn't know that the truth was the other way around. It was true that Yun Lingwei taught Yun Lintian about the formation profound art when he was young. However, Yun Lintian's current level had far surpassed Yun Lingwei a long time ago. She had now become his student instead.

***

While Yun Lingwei was busy arranging the formation, Yun Lintian was also busy fixing the formation. Crimson Reaper's attack was beyond his expectation. Undoubtedly, when the Profound Stones were completely exhausted, Yun Lintian would have nothing to protect himself.

"Boy, you are getting more interesting. Where did you get all of these best-grade Profound Stones?" Crimson Reaper stopped the movement of her palm, but the twisting space was still continuing, and the protective barrier was on the verge of collapsing.
