Martial Arts Miniature World.
These past two days, quite a number of people had also gathered around ng Yu.
There were the radicals, such as those beside ng Yu, those twenty-four who were initially promised by ng Yu that they could be exempted, and those who were selected by ng Yu yesterday to suppress the disturbances as companions. They were all very angry, how could a proper vote take place alongside these Insect Beasts?
"Why don't you all just agree with ng Yu, so we can get the exemption?"
Everyone was cursing, and their emotions were also very high.
Soone even stood up, pulled at ng Yu, and pleaded with him to teach those bastards a lesson right now!
"Don't act impulsively!"
Zhuge Caihua frowned and stood up; she stretched out her hand to stop everyone.
Of course, she knew why this was happening, it was nothing but the stupidity and impulsiveness of the crowd. Without realizing it, ng Yu had ford a small group, and the promise of fifty exemptions had led many people to flock to him voluntarily. His strength made many unconsciously regard him as their backbone!
"Ladies and gentlen, no matter what, we are all classmates, we can discuss anything that cos up. There's no need to escalate things to this level; we can negotiate."
"Negotiate?"
At this point, soone beca enraged and yelled out. The turmoil of these past few days had made many people realize where they stood.
"Did they think of us when they were being guaranteed their spots?"
"I still owe money to their family!"
"Those people, they understand Formations and possess all sorts of Treasure Tools. Don't think that we outnumber them—when it cos to unity, we can't compare at all, not to ntion that their strength is greater than ours. Are we supposed to wait for them to make the first move?"
"Right, we don't want to kill anyone, we just need to act now and force them to agree with us."
"Indecision only leads to chaos!"
The students started shouting one after another, the atmosphere growing increasingly charged, although it was all just verbal.
"Calm down, everyone, please listen to , okay? If anyone of you wants to take action, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"
Zhuge Caihua stretched out both hands, blocking everyone's path, while looking at ng Yu for help, hoping he would say sothing.
People outside, including many spectators from the Immortal Sect, didn't understand one thing, and that was what Zhuge Caihua was actually doing!
There was a key point in this.
Last night, when she arranged for ng Yu to be a Patrol Officer, she had set up a Shielding Formation and then used the Whispering Secret Technique to candidly tell ng Yu what she wanted to do.
She wanted to keep the peace but also did not want the vote to pass!
Whether it was the first day's voting or the subsequent ones, like today, no matter how well ng Yu did or how favorable the conditions were, the proposal would never pass.
It wasn't because they wanted to oppose ng Yu that they opposed the vote, but Zhuge Caihua felt that it shouldn't succeed!
On the first day, if it wasn't for that fool Wang Youcai jumping out, soone else would soon use a similar tactic to Wang Youcai's to infla the crowd and cause the vote to fail.
Because if the vote passed, what would they do when True Lord of Bai Yang ca down to clear the area?
Just like today's vote, Fuchun Yun actually didn't care about ng Yu adding fifty more exemptions and even thought that ng Yu was handso and good, but she had to oppose, sharply and venomously, and then sabotage the vote.
Zhuge Caihua, in contact with a very few individuals, was taking a risk.
Fourteen more days, just fourteen more days, and before the final three days, they absolutely had to keep the situation under control so that the vote would not pass, to prevent True Lord of Bai Yang from clearing out and killing eleven thousand one hundred students!
Within the Shielding Formation, they used the Whispering Secret Technique to discuss, managing not only to deceive most of the students but even Mirror Twelve didn't broadcast these things. As a result, what the outside world saw was Zhuge Caihua finding a lickspittle in ng Yu.
Incredibly, ng Yu was suspended by a carrot and took the initiative to help.
But in truth, Zhuge Caihua persuaded him with reason.
At the sa ti, Zhuge Caihua had another task to accomplish; the camp must not fall into chaos.
Originally, Zhuge Caihua was prepared to enter the field herself and, along with so of the top one hundred students, maintain order and prevent any issues. However, she was pleasantly surprised to see ng Yu. It was much more convenient for ng Yu to step forward than for her. After hearing her arrangents, ng Yu pondered for a while and then suggested, "I will be the one to maintain order, but all confiscated items must belong to !"
The girl nodded at ng Yu, hoping for a tacit understanding between them.
She had anticipated the current situation and had discussed it with ng Yu: other students were bound to be extrely dissatisfied. She hoped ng Yu would be able to resolve the situation without letting the problem escalate. ng Yu replied that it was no big deal; let them curse, as he wouldn't lose a chunk of flesh, right?
Of course, there would be quite a few dissatisfied people who would need Zhuge Caihua to stand up later, while he would assist from the sidelines. Just in case anyone attacked Zhuge Caihua or sothing, Zhuge Caiyun could then share her narrative about how, although she is a wealthy lady, her daily life is no different from anyone else's. She could concoct a few tragic stories, such as suffering from leukemia, having an evil sister, and frequently doing good deeds etc. As long as the beautiful girls were introduced to everyone, that would suffice.
Regarding ng Yu's idea, Zhuge Caiyun responded with a smiling face, assuring him not to worry, that it was a piece of cake for her. If his story wasn't effective, she would persuade them.
Listened with a confused expression, it took ng Yu a while to understand Zhuge Caihua's intention. He then declared that he was just a brute with nothing but muscles in his head. He didn't understand all these roundabout tactics they were discussing, whether it was stalling until the end or whatever strategic arrangents were being made within the group of one hundred. Since he didn't understand, he wouldn't get involved. His only hope was that Zhuge Caihua wouldn't deceive him, a simple countryman.
His naïveté made Zhuge Caihua cover her mouth with a smile, like a cat that had stealthily eaten a treat.
The students sward towards Zhuge Caihua, asking angrily.
And ng Yu ca to Zhuge Caihua's side, his broad shoulders shielding the brewing public sentint.
ng Yu's prestige was high. As long as he spoke up to stabilize everyone, then the issue could be resolved. Down there... she had a hundred ways to rouse everyone's spirits.
Then, the man turned his head.
"Are you really going to block everyone?"
ng Yu asked seriously.
"Yes, I..."
Zhuge Caihua gave ng Yu a look; she hoped ng Yu would understand her intentions. For today, she would trouble ng Yu, hoping...
With a flash of the sword, her head soared into the sky.
ng Yu wielded his sword and with a clean, decisive strike, he beheaded Zhuge Caihua.
He was overwheld with grief and wore an expression of reluctance on his face... ah no, it was one of determination, ferocity, and utter disregard as he looked at everyone!
If you want to die, don't drag down with you!
When disaster strikes, so people cry out for everyone to work through the hard tis together, which is great.
But when you were feasting, you didn't call for ; I went hungry while you enjoyed wealth and prosperity. Now, when dangers and difficulties arise, you rember that I am a strong fighter?
I don't mind considering the big picture, but don't expect to play along!
Throughout history, how many loyal ministers and generals have been ruined by those who emphasized the greater good, even to the point of bringing down entire countries!
If our principles differ, then I shall not conspire with you. And if you insist on dragging into your cause for the greater good, then don't bla .
He looked fiercely at those around him, at the bewildered and astonished students.
The blood on the tip of the sword dripped down, drop by drop.
