"Old Fang, I know this... it may be difficult for you to accept it." Lin Batian saw the change in Fang Yu's expression and said, "But..."
"Keep talking." Fang Yu raised his eyes and interrupted Lin Batian, "My master...what else did he say?"
"He said... he had betrayed the human race a long time ago and had been trapped for a long time." Lin Batian said, "He told me that the copper coin... was just handed over to me.
Used."
"There is a price to pay for activating that copper coin..."
Having said this, Lin Batian stopped again.
"What price?" Fang Yu asked.
Lin Batian turned his head and said: "...Old Fang, there is really no need to ask any more, you should be able to think of the price."
Fang Yu's heart was trembling.
"The price is...he has to accept the final judgment."
At this time, Leng Xunshuang, who had been silent all this time, spoke.
"Senior Daotian's death is needed to activate that copper coin."
Hearing these words, Fang Yu was stunned.
His heart also sank to the bottom.
The activation of the copper coin requires the cost of the master's life!
And he has returned to Cangchen's era through that copper coin!
This means... Daotian has paid the price.
"Why..." Fang Yu lowered his head and spoke in a low tone.
"Senior Daotian gave me the copper coins and asked me to help him and free him so that he could never be tortured again..." Lin Batian looked at Fang Yu and said, "He said that as a traitor, he must
Dead, this is his destiny. Even if we don't want the copper coin, he will die. But if he is executed like that, the secrets in the copper coin will no longer be known to you..."
"But, I can't see Senior Daotian in person, let alone take action against him. I can only..."
Fang Yu lowered his head and said nothing.
Leng Xushuang walked up to Fang Yu.
"After I got the copper coins, I went to Yuqing Fairyland and met my senior." Leng Xun's beautiful eyes flashed and he said, "I couldn't recognize him. His old age was completely different from what I remembered."
At this moment, Leng Xunshuang recalled the scene when he was in Yuqing Fairyland.
"Originally, Xiao Yu was supposed to be there to witness the final trial of me and get the copper coin... This was the original arrangement. Letting me, a traitor, die in front of my own disciples was the greatest punishment for me. But in my opinion
, this is even more punishment for Xiaoyu.
"Xiaoyu has already been burdened with too much, and I don't want him to be burdened with more."
The old Daotian in the cage looked at Leng Xunshuang in front of him with cloudy eyes.
"Fortunately, Xiaoyu still has friends like you who can bring him real help... Thank you very much, thank you for coming here on Xiaoyu's behalf."
"The copper coin in your hand... contains the secrets about the ancient domain of the human race, but if you use it, you will have to bear more karma and backlash."
"On the one hand, I don't want Xiaoyu to use it, but on the other hand, hope only exists in copper coins. I can't make a decision, so I can only leave the choice to you. It's up to you to decide whether to
Give the copper coins to Xiaoyu, I think... you will definitely make the best choice."
These words have been lingering in Leng Xunshuang's heart.
After Daotian said those words, the cage suddenly collapsed.
"After I met senior, senior..." Leng Xunshuang looked at Fang Yu and continued.
"No need to say any more."
Fang Yu lowered his head and shook his head.
He already knew what was going to happen next.
That scene, even imagining it... would make him feel suffocated.
"Who trapped him there?" Fang Yu suddenly asked again, "Who convicted him of betrayal?"
Lin Batian glanced at Leng Xunshuang.
"We don't know." Lin Batian replied, "Senior Daotian's words only revealed that it was an irresistible force... but did not mention who trapped him."
Fang Yu stopped talking and slowly sat on the ground.
The empty stone hall became even quieter.
Leng Xushuang knelt down gently and looked at Fang Yu.
She didn't say anything, she just stretched out a hand and caressed Fang Yu's cheek.
"Yu, I can accept your resentment towards me." Leng Xunshuang said softly.
"Give me time to think about it carefully." Fang Yu lowered his head and said in a deep voice.
"Okay." Leng Xushuang stood up.
She glanced at Lin Batian.
The two disappeared into the stone hall together.
Fang Yu sat on the ground.
The master is dead.
This news initially caused him great sadness and anger.
Then, after listening to Lin Batian and Leng Xunshuang's words, this grief and anger quickly intensified, and finally turned into exhaustion.
Why is this happening?
Why would Daotian betray the human race?
And who trapped him in the cage?
Daotian said that he had betrayed the human race a long time ago. When did he mean, and what did he do?
Fang Yu's thoughts were very confused.
He doesn't even know why he has come this far.
…
Outside the stone palace, there is a secret realm.
"Why did you tell this matter? You can't tell it." Lin Batian paced back and forth, his tone a little anxious, "Now that we have told it, how will we face Lao Fang, and what will Lao Fang do?
Face us?"
"I know him. In the situation just now, if we continue to hide it... he will definitely feel even more uncomfortable." Leng Xushuang lowered his head slightly and said, "In his heart, we are the only two trustworthy people.
His companion...if we have a lot to hide from him, who else can we trust?"
Hearing this, Lin Batian seemed to be stunned.
"Alas... you are right to say that." Lin Batian sighed heavily and said through gritted teeth, "Who arranged all this!? It's completely aimed at Lao Fang! Damn it!"
"According to normal circumstances, it will be Fang Yu who finds Senior Daotian... Then, I can't imagine what it will be like."
Leng Xunshuang raised his eyes and said, "If Yu finds Senior Daotian, even if he doesn't take action, Senior will still die in front of him."
"At the same time, the copper coin will still be activated."
"Why do you say that?" Lin Batian asked.
"Because I didn't take action after seeing senior at that time." Leng Xunshuang said, "After the cage collapsed, senior's chest... was pierced by a long sword, and his vitality was quickly dissipated."
"What I did... was to pull out that long sword so that the senior could be freed."
"And the symbol of the copper coin being activated...has become dim instead."
"Xunshuang, why didn't you say this just now!?" Lin Batian opened his eyes wide and asked, "For Lao Fang and you, this is something that should never be hidden!"
"I didn't hide it, but Yu couldn't stand listening anymore." Leng Xunshuang looked at Lin Batian and said, "When he calms down, I will explain everything to him."
"That's good." Lin Batian breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "This way I can relax a lot. I really blamed myself before, asking you to shoulder such a responsibility... If it weren't for that damn will of death.
Obstruction, I will not leave this matter to you..."
"I should have shared some of the burden for Yu," Leng Xunshuang said.
"...To be honest, I still haven't figured out why Senior Daotian leaked that secret..." Lin Batian shook his head and said, "Based on my understanding of Senior Daotian...he is definitely not
The kind of person who disregards everything for profit, otherwise, Tiandao Sect would not have been so low-key back then."
"Senior... there must be reasons for doing this."
"Also, Lao Fang's problem is actually my problem... Who trapped the senior in the cage? The senior was trapped because he betrayed the human race... However, today's human race, besides Lao Fang...
Who can judge the seniors? Who else cares about the so-called betrayal? Is it the will left by some human seniors?"
"It's possible." Leng Xunshuang said, "There have been so many top strong men in the history of the human race. Leaving a will or a curse seal to prevent betrayal... is not impossible."
Lin Batian turned around and walked a few steps.
"There is still a problem. According to Lao Fang, a copper coin can only be used once... and he also saw the stone statues of two other human seniors." Lin Batian stopped and said, "It seems like,
There are at least two copper coins that have not been found... Where can I find them?"
