Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1724 Try Again

Hou Jizhuan knew that he had just said it casually before, and he didn't know how to explain it. He paused and said, "I have never used it in front of the clan leader before."

"Did you secretly use this spell when you hit the blue-armored man's arm with that wooden stick last time?" Tie Wandao never turned back, just looked at the blue-armored men and said.

Hou Jizhuan said: "The situation just now was a little different..."

Tie Wandao whipped the ground with his whip, turned around, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Then tell me, what's the difference?"

The moment Tie Wandao whipped the ground with his whip, Hou Jizhuan shuddered with fear. He did not dare to look Tie Wandao in the eye and spoke in a low voice, "Just now the clan leader asked me to see what was going on. That... must be because the clan leader found that the situation was different, so I tried it according to the different situation."

Tie Wandao sneered and said, "Did you hear clearly what I asked you?"

"I heard it clearly." Hou Jizhu said.

"Then you answer it." Tie Wandao said.

"I... answered." Hou Jizhu said.

Tie Wandao said: "Your voice is trembling. You have something to hide. You want to get away with it, right? I asked you what was different. What did you answer?"

Hou Jizhuan felt that the more timid he was, the easier it would be to reveal his true identity, so he plucked up his courage and said, "I don't know what's different, but when the clan leader asked me what was going on, I knew it must be different, otherwise he wouldn't have asked that."

"You don't even know what's different, how do you know what spell to use?" Tie Wandao asked.

Hou Jizhuan thought: I didn't recite any spells secretly just now. Now that the clan leader asked me this, what should I say? Oh, some spells are universal!
"As long as there is some difference, you can try that spell." Hou Jizhuan said.

Tie Wandao flicked the whip and changed its position, which startled Hou Jizhuan again. Hou Jizhuan felt that the whip was about to hit him, and his heart beat faster.

"So what did you find out?" Tie Wandao asked with raised eyebrows.

"I've tried it out...it seems that what I did just now doesn't work." Hou Jizhuan said.

"What's the reason?" Tie Wandao asked.

Hou Jizhuan said: "The reason... I don't know either."

"Not sure?" Tie Wandao said, "Okay, try again!"

"Yes, clan leader." Hou Jizhu said.

Hou Jizhuan had not chanted any spells before, and just kept silent as before, and used the wooden stick to gently hit the blue-armored man's arm to see if he could get the reaction he expected. In fact, he already felt that the possibility was not great, but at this moment, so close to Tie Wandao and under his gaze, he really didn't know what other choice he had.

So, Hou Jizhuan took the wooden stick and gently hit the man in blue armor on the arm. Then, he stared at the man in blue armor as if he was waiting for some result.

The man in blue armor still did not react as he expected. He remained motionless, staring at Hou Jizhuan in a daze.

"Have you finished the test?" Tie Wandao asked, "How was it?" There was a hint of contempt in his tone.

Hou Jizhuan wanted to see if trying another person would produce any unexpected results, so he said, "Let me try another person."
