BXBX NOVEL Chapter 202 - 202. Panic
The commotion in the morning woke Fu Xie Lan and the other participants in the Moon Pavilion, they immediately searched for the source of the sound through their respective bedroom windows.
Down there, several warriors were forcibly dragging a few people, judging by the jade on their bodies, they were participants in the martial competition.
What happened?
Each participant thought the same thing.
It hadn\'t even been a few seconds, people in the same uniforms immediately entered all participant\'s rooms without knocking.
Dragging everyone away without saying a word.
Not a few of the participants rebelled and felt disapproved of the treatment.
"Hey let me go!"
"What are you doing?"
"Where will I be taken?"
But there was no response from the warriors.
Fu Xie Lan and Gu Yi were also dragged. And the two of them just obeyed.
Finally, they all walked towards the palace hall which was already filled with several other participants.
Stand together facing the empty throne seat.
Those who were in that place had yet to collect their lives after being awakened and had been dragged along, making it take them a few minutes to digest everything that was happening to themselves and their surroundings.
After all the participants had gathered in the room, the sound of footsteps was heard from outside.
And seconds later the hall door opened, revealing the emperor who walked into the hall, towards the empty throne there.
At the same time, the hall door was locked tightly again.
Leaving only the king and the participants. No bodyguards or soldiers could be found in that place.
Fu Xie Lan and Gu Yi were close together, while Wan Lie, Xue Ning, and Ju Xian, were far from the girl.
Simultaneously, everyone paid their respects to the king, but there was no response from him in the slightest, even the king\'s face darkened a little as if he was holding back anger.
There was no sound at all, everyone was in the same confusion and the same position. They bowed in respect.
Only the sound of their breath filled the silence in the room, no one dared to make a move that would make themselves the center of attention.
"GO OUT!!" suddenly a booming voice made everyone startled and looked up.
"I ORDER TO YOU TO GET OUT!!" the voice belongs to the king.
Everyone turned their heads and looked confused.
What does the king ean to make such an order?
Send them out?
But now, the palace hall was tightly locked from the outside.
"I KNOW YOU\'RE IN THIS ROOM," he said again, making everyone even more confused.
"Excuse me, Your Majesty, if I may ask, who is the emperor referring to?" stuttered a man who finally got up the courage to ask.
But just as the man finished his sentence, his body fell to the floor. It emits black smoke and after that only bones are wrapped in clothes.
At the same time, a hysterical scream rang out in the corner of the room, coming from several people who were near the man.
The reflex backed away from there. That fleeting incident created terror in everyone.
"LOOK!! THAT PERSON DEATH BECAUSE OF YOU!!"
"GO OUT!!" shouted the king again.
"I KNOW YOU\'RE HIDING AMONG THE PARTICIPANTS."
Everyone was shaking, even the one who had just screamed hysterically seemed to be covering their mouth, silencing their mouth forcibly with both hands.
Suddenly someone in the middle of the hall shouted again and the same thing happened to his body again.
Making people around him immediately move away with a look of horror.
"LOOK!! YOU KILL ONE MORE PERSON," shouted the king louder. Even the aura of nobility was no longer found in that figure.
Meanwhile, Fu Xie Lan who was among the participants just stood still, observing what was happening.
She knew that the mastermind behind the murder of the two men was the king.
She just didn\'t expect that the fake emperor would show himself so open to everyone.
Previously the girl had wanted to lure him out, but she didn\'t think it would happen this quickly, whereas they had just destroyed the tower last night.
As far as her eyes could see in the hall, all she saw was an expression of fear.
Yes everyone is confused and scared at the same time.
"It\'s a black witch."
"It\'s true that he is among us."
"Careful."
There were faint whispers from behind.
Suddenly someone who was at the front of the line of participants prostrated to the floor facing the king.
"HELP US, YOUR MAJESTY."
"SAVE US," shouted the man to the king and soon several people followed him. Shouted for help to the emperor.
They were aware that black witchs were indeed among the participants, thinking that the king wanted to protect them, so he has gathered everyone in one room to find the mastermind.
"PROTECT US YOUR MAJESTY." everyone shouted almost at the same time, each with a very frightened expression, suspicious of the other. wailing and some have even cried hysterically while continuing to shout for help as if the next second they will become the next victim.
The scene was not much different from the one they witnessed yesterday. The sudden death of someone who was among the participants made those who didn\'t even believe in the existence of witchs in this world slowly swallow their belief.
Witches exist and are real.
Now, all participants believe that without exception.
One of Fu Xie Lan\'s eyebrows rose at the scene before her eyes.
A faint smile appeared on her lips.
While the figure of the man standing on the royal throne looked at all the people prostrating in front of him with a contemptuous look.
Stayed in his position without moving and responding in the slightest, a smirk formed on his lips. And all of that didn\'t go unnoticed by Fu Xie Lan.
"USE ME TO HELP YOU, YOUR MAJESTY," someone shouted still in prostration.
Finished with his sentence, the voiced figure screamed in pain, even the next second his body disappeared too. Leaving only bones wrapped in clothes on the floor.
Everyone stared at the figure in horror, even the smoke billowing from his bones was still visible.
Cold sweat covered everyone\'s body, hands trembled with anxious hearts and minds, they hope that they can safely get out of the royal palace and return to their respective villages.
"STILL DON\'T WANT TO GET OUT?" shouted the emperor as his eyes swept across the room.
"IF YOU DON\'T GET OUT, EVERYONE IN THIS HALL WILL DEATH TODAY. INCLUDING YOU!!" he shouted again making everyone jump on the spot, looking up at the emperor who they were previously believed to protect and save them.
Suddenly someone came forward.
"DON\'T KILL THOSE WHO ARE NOT KNOWING ANYTHING!!" shouted the young man angrily.
In both hands, blue light\'s mana emitted
Fu Xie Lan, Gu Yi, along with Wan Lie, Xue Ning, and Ju Xian stared at the young man.
Wizard.
It turns out, they weren\'t the only ones in the human race.
