The ally leader's stand-in is gone

Although she had already guessed in her heart, Lin Zhouyue was still a little surprised when she heard Fang Yan's answer.

Lin Zhouyue: "Your junior brother?"

Fang Yan: "Master accepted nine children as apprentices, I was the third and Tu Xia was the ninth."

In fact, Lin Zhouyue had never met Long Xi. Not long after he got started, the other party soared, let alone know how many apprentices the other party had taken.

Except for Fang Yan and Tu Xia, there are seven others. Why hasn't there been any news for hundreds of years?

Lin Zhouyue subconsciously asked, "Where are the others?"

Fang Yan said lightly: "They are all dead."

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Lin Zhouyue didn't want to poke someone's pain: "Sorry, sorry."

Unexpectedly, Fang Yan continued without any ups and downs: "I killed it."

Lin Zhouyue: "..."

An accusation from Tu Xia flashed in his mind: Fang Yan is a cruel, cold-blooded and ruthless person.

The sound of the waterfall covered up his faster heartbeat, and the broken blue light drifted through the air, briefly illuminating Fang Yan's side face. There was no sadness or joy on it, not even an expression, but it made people feel serene for no reason.

Lin Zhouyue guessed, "Tu Xia framed you?"

It shouldn't be coercion. With Fang Yan's personality, he would never be coerced even if he died.

Fang Yan was stunned for a moment: "Why do you say that?"

Lin Zhouyue: "Wrong guess?"

Fang Yan: "Perhaps it is true that I am ruthless, greedy for power and power, seizing heavenly talents and earthly treasures, and stepping on the corpses of all my fellow disciples."

Lin Zhouyue looked at the patient with brain problems, frowned and said, "Have you listened to too many scripts lately?"

Fang Yan laughed: "So trust me?"

Lin Zhouyue was silent.

Although he and Fang Yan had a lot of unhappiness, but love belongs to love. In all fairness, although Fang Yan can use some scheming methods, he is not a bloodthirsty person. There must be something hidden about killing seven or eight senior brothers.

At least this, he never doubted.

After a pause, he asked, "Is it long?"

Fang Yan: "General."

Hearing this, Lin Zhouyue looked around, found a relatively clean big rock and sat down, which happened to be facing the waterfall, and she could see the abyss when she raised her eyes.

That was a long time ago.

Long Xi didn't think about accepting apprentices at first.

The Chosen One is formed by the luck of heaven and earth, and came out to end the war between immortals and demons. After the Chosen One, no monk can ascend.

So after the battle between immortals and demons, the world of comprehension was in chaos.

Some people want to fight for power and profit, and some people want to rob other people's luck through insidious means, so as to gamble on the immortality that is doomed.

Long Xi loves the world of self-cultivation deeply, and doesn't want to see the world continue to be chaotic, so she seeks Lin Shen for divination, and after discussing with other chosen ones, she decides to make a ladder to ascend to heaven.

But all the chosen ones are about to ascend, and it is not enough to only climb the ladder to the sky, and a person who can use the ladder to solve the troubled times is also needed.

So Long Xi scoured the world and found nine talented children to take as his apprentices.

Unlike Lin Shen who cared deeply for the disciples of the sect, for Long Xi, the nine children were just tools to use the ladder to help the troubled times in the future.

Yes, they are tools for ascending the ladder of heaven and the world of comprehension.

And Fang Yan is one of these nine children.

Some of them had names, some didn't even have names, Long Xi was too busy perfecting the climbing ladder and didn't bother to get up, only the first and second called, and the children helped each other and read books to make it up.

But Long Xi couldn't remember it, and still called them old one and old two.

Long Xi taught them spells, kingship, balance, love and comprehension.

Long Xi originally planned to wait for the world to calm down before ascending, but somehow he encountered something, and suddenly decided not to delay in the lower realms. At that time, climbing the ladder was almost the same, and the nine children had become nine youths, each of whom had made some small achievements.

Just when the nine of them thought they could go outside to show their skills and start their own path of cultivation, Long Xi threw them into the remodeled Climbing Valley.

"Only those who get the ladder can come out alive."

"Only one person can get the ladder to the sky."

After finishing speaking, he didn't care about the result, he didn't care who succeeded, he turned his head and flew up by himself.

The transformed Dengtian Valley is extremely dangerous, especially in the heart of the Dengtian Valley. As soon as nine people entered, three of them died.

Especially Wen Xindao, the people who went in either died or became demons, only Fang Yan was rescued by chance, and finally turned back to give relief to the other brothers.

Ironically, the test of asking Xindao is whether they love this cultivation world as deeply as Long Xi.

Fang Yan talked about this past in a very flat tone, only his eyes were darker than usual.

Although Fang Yan didn't mention it, Lin Zhouyue could imagine it.

Long Xi is obsessed with rectifying the righteous way, and is good at mechanism design. In Long Xi's eyes, the nine children are about the same as nine pieces of wood that can be carved and polished at will.

Not to mention caring and loving, it is a good thing not to be tortured by anything, and in addition to instilling the idea of ​​love day after day.

Maybe everyone has a rebellious mentality, and numb indoctrination is the most likely to have the opposite effect, or maybe the conditions set by Long Xi are too harsh, so that none of the few apprentices can successfully pass the questioning heart.

But after all, Long Xi was kind to Fang Yan for his upbringing, and Lin Zhouyue sat on a big rock with him. At such a close distance, Fang Yan did not complain when he mentioned Long Xi.

As for whether in Ascending Heaven Valley, whether the nine senior brothers helped each other and died tragically, or whether they really killed each other as Long Xi wished, Lin Zhouyue didn't know, and he didn't intend to ask.

Either way, it's not a pleasant memory.

He asked, "What about Tu Xia, isn't he dead?"

Fang Yan also had doubts about this: "According to my memory, Tu Xia should have died as soon as he entered the Taoist Mind."

Lin Zhouyue: "What kind of person is Tu Xia?"

"It's more extreme, more extreme in every aspect." Fang Yan, "Tu Xia may be the one among the nine of us who has the most obvious feelings for the cultivation world. Master even had a preference for him."

Lin Zhouyue: "Then how is your relationship?"

Fang Yan spread his hands helplessly.

understood.

Not even an ordinary one.

Lin Zhouyue once again thought of the reason why Fang Yan worshiped Long Xi's sect. Relatives died in the power strife, so she wanted to change the world of comprehension.

If Long Xi had a preference because of his apprentice's attitude towards the cultivation world, then Fang Yan would disagree with Master's ideas no matter what, and he would be in the same situation as the master's favorite disciple, so he probably disliked Long Xi the most.

Fang Yan didn't know what Lin Zhouyue was thinking, and continued: "I used to think that he could pass the Xindao smoothly, but I didn't expect that he would lose his breath as soon as he entered. Thinking about it now, maybe he had another adventure in the Dao because of his extreme. I left Ascending Heaven Valley again."

Lin Zhouyue: "What about strength?"

Fang Yan: "Earth is a single spiritual root. When we practiced with Master, we won and lost about the same number of times."

Having said that, it is enough for Lin Zhouyue to outline the situation.

The nine apprentices of Long Xi in Ascending Heaven Valley were supposed to be wiped out, but He Xiting entered by mistake and rescued Fang Yan.

After Fang Yan came out, he pacified the cultivation world, unified the Immortal League, and became an existence that everyone looked up to.

But Tu Xia survived by luck, no matter if he misunderstood or was unwilling, he hibernates in the dark of the cultivation world, builds Dashenmen, and waits for the opportunity to take revenge on Fang Yan.

After sorting out her thoughts, Lin Zhouyue looked up at the rushing waterfall.

The waterfall is obviously not small, but because the interior space of the mountain is too large, the sound of the rushing makes the space more quiet.

Although he promised Fang Yan to go with him, one of them was to learn the truth, and Fang Yan knew it well.

But since Fang Yan came out of the mountain, his past background has been a mystery that cannot be tested or guessed, but now he is defenseless and has told him everything.

Lin Zhouyue: "What are you going to do?"

Fang Yan: "Has Tu Xia disclosed any information to you?"

Now that Fang Yan had told the truth, he didn't hide it and told all about the conversation with Tu Xia.

After listening to it, Fang Yan said thoughtfully: "Tu Xia should not only want to take revenge on me, otherwise there is no need to make a fuss."

Lin Zhouyue: "Didn't Dashenmen be established to compare with Xianmeng?"

Fang Yan: "I'm not boasting, the foundation of the Xianmeng has long been solid, and there are all decent families in it, not to mention the limited number of monks in the world, the Dashenmen can't compare with the Xianmeng."

Lin Zhouyue: "That's why Dashenmen wants to win over the demon world and the demon world."

Fang Yan: "But they all failed. Under the premise of failure, after the stronghold was discovered, they did not choose to recharge their batteries, but started to fight against the Xianmeng with open swords and spears. This is a game that must be lost."

Lin Zhouyue: "According to Tu Xia, he will not make climbing the ladder a tool to coerce the monks to obey orders."

Fang Yan smiled: "Do you think that my being the leader depends on climbing the ladder?"

Lin Zhouyue thought, of course not.

Fang Yan's ability to become the leader of the alliance depends on his cultivation, brains, skills, and courage. Compared with these, climbing the ladder to the sky has become an insignificant foil.

Tu Xia is secretly changing the concept.

Fang Yan: "It is impossible to place the Ladder of Heaven in a land without an owner. Maybe someone will go crazy and destroy it, but as long as the Ladder of Heaven has an owner, it will become what Tu Xia calls a 'tool to coerce all monks to obey orders'."

Lin Zhouyue: "Then what is Tu Xia's confidence?"

Fang Yan shook his head: "I don't know, but it's definitely not a good thing, whether it's for me or the overall situation."

Lin Zhouyue thought about what Fang Yan said, but he only had a brief contact with Tu Xia that night, so he didn't know where to start.

He just felt dangerous.

As Fang Yan said, what Tu Xia wanted was not just revenge.

"Don't think about it." Fang Yan said in harmony beside him, "The various sects of the Xianmeng have been working together to track down the Dashenmen recently, and they already have some clues. When Tu Xia is caught, ask. The most important thing now is to find Banbi Binglian, heal your spirit."

When mentioning the soul, Lin Zhouyue suddenly thought of her sudden daze when facing the fierce beast just now.

So far, he has never encountered such a situation.

The situation in Shangmoyuan is different, and what will happen if you go further in.

Seeing that he was silent for a long time, Fang Yan asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Zhouyue: "Is there still the Ten Thousand Spirits God Thunder on the Ten Thousand Spirits Tree?"

Fang Yan: "Yes, they are all hung on the tree, but the Wanling tree was also damaged when the Wanling flower was destroyed. I repaired it later, and the Wanling tree changed accordingly."

Variety?

Lin Zhouyue doesn't know why, but now he needs the God of All Souls to take precautions: "Let's go and have a look first."
