Chapter 716 - He Resurrected (2/2)

The former Chang Sheng could not protect Lingyu, and he regretted it for the rest of his life. He died with hatred.

Today’s Lin Xuanzhi, however, will never let history repeat itself.

They hugged each other for a moment, and Yan Tianhen looked up at him. “I had a fight with Lord Yuxu in the Dragon God’s burial site. Dage, his tricks and moves look very familiar. I can confirm that those were moves that I used before, and he doesn’t seem to be doing it intentionally. Moreover, he insisted that I was a fake, and he was the real Lingyu. I guess there must be some unspeakable secret behind all this.”

Lin Xuanzhi suspected that Lord Yuxu was an imposter before, because firstly, he trusted Yan Tianhen, and secondly, the temperament of Lord Yuxu was really different from Lingyu. As for where specifically their temperaments differed, not even Lin Xuanzhi could say for the time being.

However, if even Yan Tianhen was fooled into confusion, it showed that there was a problem.

Lin Xuanzhi did not answer directly, but thought for a moment and said, “There is one thing that is very important. I hope you can answer it truthfully after thinking it over.”

Yan Tianhen blinked. “Dage, you are suddenly so serious, which makes me a little nervous.”

Lin Xuanzhi asked, “What is your relationship with Cangdi Fenglang? How did he treat you?”

Yan Tianhen was surprised that Lin Xuanzhi would mention this man, but even though he was confused, he replied, “Cangdi Fenglang was brought back by you, and you also deliberately used him to annoy me. Naturally, I don’t like him very much. As for him… he liked to rub in my face how well you treated him, like what you bought for him or what you taught him. Seriously, I always think this rascal is deliberately trying to anger me. He pretends to be pitiful, clever, and sensible in front of you, but behind your back, he shows his teeth and claws. Anyway, I find him extremely annoying.”

Yan Tianhen was very blunt, and his eyes also showed some disgust.

Lin Xuanzhi looked at him and asked again, “You didn’t kill him just because I treated him well, did you?”

Yan Tianhen looked up at Lin Xuanzhi. “Of course not. I’m not that stingy, but Dage, you’ve never asked these things before. Why are you suddenly asking today?”

“You always have a reason to kill people.” Lin Xuanzhi said faintly. “I didn’t ask before because I was afraid of disappointment and thought that you would take the initiative to tell me one day, but now I can’t wait. Ah Hen, let me ask you, did you kill him because he was actually the evil Qi cultivator that everyone wanted to kill?”

Yan Tianhen blurted out, “How did you know?”

Lin Xuanzhi said, “So it’s really true.”

Yan Tianhen suddenly realized something, gasped, and said with wide eyes, “Maybe that fake Yuquan is Cangdi Fenglang? No! That’s impossible!”

“Why is it impossible?”

“I killed him thoroughly and threw him into the black abyss of the Seventh Region. Even if other evil Qi cultivators reappear in the world, it can never be him!”

“But he did come back to life.” In Lin Xuanzhi’s mind, a man with half face like a ghost and half face like an immortal came up. “He was the culprit who caused the events inside the Dragon Tomb. He said that he died wrongly and with grievances, so he wants to drag the world down with him and avenge himself.”

Yan Tianhen’s hands and feet grew cold, and his heart suddenly sank.

He didn’t know how much effort he wasted before he finally destroyed Cangdi Fenglang, so that he could never revive again, lifting the biggest crisis in the Nine Lands. In order to kill Cangdi Fenglang, he lost half his life and became an abomination that was neither human, ghost, demon, nor evil spirit. Only after much difficulty did he finally complete the task Dao Zu entrusted to him.

He was ready to fight Cangdi Fenglang’s former subordinates to the end, but he never thought that the root cause of all that would come back from the dead and climb out of the dark abyss where not even grass grew.

And his cultivation was entirely unharmed as well.

This was the most terrifying thing.

Whether it is Lin Xuanzhi or him or Lian Hua, they had experienced reincarnation. When they recognized each other again, they all started from scratch, building their cultivation foundations for the sake of slow and steady progress and had not yet reached half of their peak state’s cultivation.

But the cultivation of Cangdi Fenglang seemed to be outrageously high.

Even though the Dragon Tomb Holy Land was sealed again, even until this time, Zhan Fengting still hadn’t come out from the inside. According to reason, all the evil spirits in the Dragon Tomb, including the evil Qi cultivators, would be buried in the giant seal, but Lin Xuanzhi had such a hunch–

Cangdi Fenglang would soon escape the Dragon Tomb’s seal, then make a comeback.

After a long silence, Yan Tianhen said with difficulty, “Cangdi Fenglang is an evil Qi cultivator. I can confirm that he was responsible for the seven sect massacres that year. When Dao Zu discovered this, he wanted to kill Fenglang as an apology to the people all over the world.”

Lin Xuanzhi raised his eyebrows slightly. “Dao Zu never mentioned this.”
