To the crowd, this scene before them was as astonishing as a miracle.
Even Xiang Xu, Wang Yumeng and the others felt a little astonished, astonished by this Master Hongyang’s tactics.
Only Li Nan, after seeing this scene in front of him, could not help but smile coldly in his heart.
Just now, Li Nan had already expected that this Master Hongyang would definitely do something to this bamboo stick.
Therefore, from the very beginning of Master Hong Yang’s spell casting, Li Nan had already injected his divine thoughts into the bamboo tube to investigate.
As a result, Li Nan found something fishy in it!
The so-called Witch God’s Sign appeared to be extremely subtle, but in fact, it was nothing more than a trivial technique!
Li Nan’s divine thoughts had found that a worm had been put into the bamboo tube in advance by Master Hong Yang.
The worm seemed to have undergone special training, or by recognising scents or other methods.
So, after receiving the order from Master Hong Yang, the worm would crawl towards the top of the bamboo tube, holding the bamboo stick that Master Hong Yang had asked for.
To an outsider, it would appear as if the bamboo stick would levitate out of thin air!
This is the truth of the Witch God’s stick, which is regarded by outsiders as a miracle!
It is the simplest of tricks!
The only strange thing is the worm in the bamboo tube.
The only thing that was odd was the worm in the bamboo tube. Such an obedient and humane worm was definitely not something that could be cultivated by ordinary people.
It seems that this so-called Grandmaster Hong Yang and his Witch God Hall behind him are obviously not that simple!
Although in his heart, he was already very clear about the whole matter, but Li Nan was in no hurry to point it out for the time being.
After all, the main purpose of his coming here today was to help Zhang Zhen overcome his difficulties and finally come together with Zhao Yujing.
So, of course, this was still the priority at the moment!
At this moment, that bamboo stick was still slowly rising under the awe-inspiring gaze of the crowd.
And on both sides of that bamboo stick, Zhou Zheng’s name, was almost on the verge of being called out.
Even the word Zhou was already on display in front of the crowd.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhen and Zhao Yujing’s hearts all sank.
Xiang Xu and Wang Yumeng were also secretly saying something bad in their hearts.
Could it be that this time, they were really going to lose?!
Zhou Liwei and Zhou Zheng, father and son, were both complacent at this moment.
Obviously, their previous bribes had worked.
It seemed that this time, they were definitely going to win!
However, just as Zhou Liwei and Zhou Zheng were about to celebrate their victory in advance, something unexpected happened.
Only to see that the bamboo stick, which had already risen halfway up and was about to fall out of the bamboo tube, suddenly snapped back into the tube with a clatter!
“What?! This ……”
When Zhou Liwei Zhou Zheng saw this scene, he was all instantly dumbfounded, not understanding what was going on.
The crowd over at the outer hall were all puzzled for a while as well.
They had seen Grandmaster Hong Yang invite the Witch God to sign before, but nothing like this had ever happened before1
Even Grandmaster Hong Yang had a look of astonishment on his face at this moment.
Just now, his control over the sign-sending worm had been going smoothly, and today’s matter looked like it was about to be successfully resolved, but to his surprise, the consciousness connection between him and the sign-sending worm had suddenly been broken just now.
This had never happened before even to Grandmaster Hong Yang.
Without any hesitation, Grandmaster Hong Yang hurriedly tried to re-establish the connection with the sign-sending insect through his own methods.
The connection was immediately re-established.
However, to Master Hong Yang’s surprise, even though he had re-established contact with the sign-sending worm, the worm no longer obeyed his orders!
In the next moment, the stick-sending insect in the bamboo tube began to hold another bamboo stick and slowly rise up towards the top of the bamboo tube!
“What ……”
When Grandmaster Hong Yang saw this scene, he was also completely dumbfounded.
He had never dreamed that this would happen.
He had to know that this signature delivery worm was a compulsion that he had personally cultivated.
Over the years, Master Hongyang and the insect had long been in sympathy with each other, and the insect had always obeyed him.
Master Hong Yang could not figure out why this had happened.
“What’s going on? How could this happen?!”
At the side, Zhou Liwei and Zhou Zheng, both father and son, were amazed at the scene before them and looked at Grandmaster Hong Yang with great confusion, hoping that Grandmaster Hong Yang could salvage the situation for them.
Master Hong Yang’s face was also gloomy. He had tried all his tricks to control the sign-delivery bug, but all had failed.
Not only that, but Grandmaster Hong Yang had also discovered that his bug was already under the control of someone else!
This made Grandmaster Hong Yang’s heart feel incredible.
The other person had actually been able to surpa*s himself and take over the control of the parasite, this was definitely not something an ordinary person could do!
A master!
This is definitely a high level person!
And at this moment, as the stick-sending insect held it up, the bamboo stick finally rose completely out of the bamboo tube.
Finally, “Snap!” With a soft sound, that bamboo stick fell directly to the ground.
And written on the top of that bamboo stick was none other than Zhang Zhen’s name!
“It’s me! Little Jing, we’re finally able to be together! Hahahaha ……”
Seeing his name on that bamboo stick, Zhang Zhen was immediately excited beyond measure.
Zhao Yujing’s face also revealed a look of incomparable surprise.
The crowd in the outer hall were all talking at this moment as well, they were also a little surprised by such a result.
After all, this Zhang Zhen in front of them was something they had never even heard of before.
The two of them, Zhou Liwei and Zhou Zheng, father and son, on the other hand, had a dejected look on their faces.
“How could this happen? Master Hong Yang, how could this happen?”
Zhou Liwei looked towards Grandmaster Hong Yang with an astonished expression.
Master Hong Yang, on the other hand, his face was also filled with astonishment at this moment, and his entire body was frozen in place.
“Grandmaster Hongyang, this …… is the Witch God’s decision, right?”
Zhao Siming looked at Grandmaster Hongyang with some surprise.
Grandmaster Hongyang frowned, and his face was also grim and cold.
“No, this is not what the Witch God meant. There was a bit of an accident in the middle of this questioning of the sign, causing the communication between me and the Witch God to break down before, so the result of this questioning of the sign does not count!”
Master Hong Yang said in a low voice.
In fact, if it were anyone else, Grandmaster Hong Yang might have just gone along with it and conceded.
But Zhou Liwei’s influence in Southern Cloud was not small, and he was also a loyal follower of their Witch God Temple, and he usually made a lot of money offerings to their Witch God Temple.
Master Hong Yang did not want to completely lose such a money-giving god of wealth just because of this incident.
Therefore, Master Hong Yang had to salvage the situation for the Zhou family no matter what!
