"Senior Green Cocoon, is there any hidden overwhelming killing intent sent my way?' Yang Qing asked as he prepared himself.
The moment of truth had already arrived. The saint-grade artifacts he was clothed in, along with soul formation experts on the stage were all here for this moment. Chief Justice Lai Ning could be considered to be the only one who was purely here for his integral role in the ceremony and wasn't necessarily here for the protection of Yang Qing, even though having a powerhouse like him available wouldn't hurt Yang Qing's survival chances.
"There isn't any overly intense, it's just the normal kind. You're not well-liked are you?" asked Green Cocoon.
Yang Qing didn't quite know how to answer that question. While the Order did maintain balance and helped reduce the amount of chaos around the Southern Continent, not many cultivators looked at them in a favorable light, especially those whose interests were constantly being impeded by the Order.
