Zi Chen looked at the little girl with a confused expression.
"what are you talking about?"
The old man was also confused, and Xuan'er felt like he had heard a big joke.
He couldn't tell anything else. The guy in front of him had several injuries with bones visible to the naked eye. He was so scared that he didn't even dare to recover from his injuries.
Will he be the hidden dragon?
Can you recover from your injuries in an instant?
If he wasn't physically stronger, he would have been beaten to death before.
But he wisely chose to remain silent.
The old man was equally silent. Although he couldn't believe it all, he told himself in his heart that he must believe it.
Because Xuan'er's ability is extraordinary.
The little girl just looked at Zi Chen with an expression that said, "I've seen through you and if you don't admit it, I'll just look at you and wait for you to admit it."
Zi Chen said cautiously: "Then can I leave?"
The little girl continued: "I hope you can help us."
Of course Zi Chen wouldn't admit it, it was just a deception, who wouldn't?
At this moment, the old man cupped his fists and saluted Zi Chen.
He figured it out and broke into a cold sweat.
From the beginning, it was a choice.
His choice determines the ownership of the Tianyang Stone here.
If someone kills someone and silences them, it doesn't necessarily mean who will die.
As soon as he couldn't continue the play, Zi Chen sighed helplessly.
It seems that he is destined to have no fate with these Tianyang Stones.
Golden light flashed all over his body, and Zi Chen's injuries were healed visibly to the naked eye.
Xuan'er's eyes widened, is this true?
The old man felt more and more lucky, lucky for Xuan'er's unique talent, otherwise she would have really failed today.
After his injuries recovered and his clothes returned to their original state, Zi Chen smiled and asked, "Can I leave?"
The old man didn't know how to respond.
Xuan'er didn't respond, she just looked at Zi Chen, her big watery eyes full of help.
Zi Chen was defeated and said helplessly: "How can I help you?"
"This place has been exposed. I hope you can escort us for a while." Xuan'er said, "But I need to re-bless the magic circle here."
Zi Chen nodded.
Then walked aside.
The little girl stepped forward to bless the magic circle, still forming seals, and then injected her own energy into it.
It sounds simple, but in fact the process is very complicated, similar to sewing and mending, it is a very meticulous work.
Zi Chen stood in the distance and watched for a while, but soon realized something was wrong.
Because the little girl lost not only her own spiritual power, but also her own vitality.
In other words, she is using her own life to repair the magic circle here.
Thinking back to the previous conversation between the two parties, Zi Chen was moved by it.
The old man came to Zi Chen's side and stopped looking there. Apparently he couldn't bear to see this scene.
This was also one of the reasons why he took Xuan'er away before.
But this is also a mission that must be completed by the guardian spirit lineage, and a step that every chosen person must take.
"Is it worth it?" Zi Chen asked.
"This is our mission." The old man said, "If we didn't persist, the Land of the Sky would have disappeared thousands of years ago."
It is their maintenance once every fifty years that allows the magic circle here to operate well and the land of Tianyang to be preserved to this day.
"Are you a foreigner?" the old man asked.
Zi Chen nodded.
"Come for the Sunstone?"
"That's right. I just came here to take a look. I never thought this thing was very important to me."
"Why not just take action?"
The old man now understands that the young man was deliberately injured to give them a choice.
If they had chosen to silence them before, they would probably all be dead.
Perhaps Jin Yuanliang and others are worried that the disappearance of the Tianyang Land will affect the Tianyin Land.
But this foreigner obviously doesn't have such worries.
"The Tianyang Stone here is very important to me, but it is not the reason why I kill people and silence them. Do I have to do whatever it takes to get something important?"
Zi Chen turned back to look at the old man, "Of course, if you kill people first, then that's another matter."
The old man nodded sincerely and acted with principles. Such people are rare in today's world.
Xuan'er next to her also saw Xuan'er's vitality draining away, and immediately became anxious, but she didn't dare to disturb her. Grandpa here was obviously chatting with that person.
He was running around in circles anxiously.
"There is no other way? Do you have to sacrifice a child?"
"There is no other way." The old man sighed, his words full of helplessness.
"When is the end?"
"Perhaps when the number of Tianyang Stones is exceeded, the magic circle will no longer be able to be used, or our lineage of guardian spirits will disappear in this world."
"Why did it become like this?"
This is the secret of the guardian lineage, so the old man naturally won't say much about it.
Zi Chen didn't ask any more questions.
After a few hours, all the magic circles were repaired.
But there is still a part of the Tianyang Stone that has exhausted its energy.
Not to mention the little girl, the continuous flow of vitality makes her future lifespan destined to be only more than two hundred years old.
And from now on, her mission is to select and find the next generation.
Just after the little girl completed her mission and recovered a special mark, the old man's vitality was also passing away, and his whole body began to exude an aura of decay.
Zi Chen sensed that the other party would not live more than five years.
Xuan'er stood up, her body was shaky, but Xuan'er on the side quickly supported her.
A lot of vitality and longevity have passed away, and Xuan'er's originally delicate skin has become rough, her face has become a bit older, and there are even a few strands of white hair on her temples.
Xuan'er felt heartbroken when she saw it.
The old man had tears in his eyes, but this was their mission to protect the spirits.
Zi Chen couldn't stand it when a little girl became like this, so he took out a lotus leaf.
This item is a holy item for healing, and it can restore some vitality.
Looking at this obviously extraordinary lotus leaf, a strange color flashed in the old man's eyes.
The value of this object seems to be no less than that of Tianyang Stone.
It was so valuable that the old man didn't take it.
Zi Chen put it directly in Xuan'er's hand, "Let's refine it, the effect is better now."
