C1338 Past Events(5)

The past seemed to have been extracted from its cocoon, gradually revealing itself to Lin Bai. Although there were still many doubts, in the end, the true core of these mysteries was still revealed before Lin Bai's eyes.

But even so, there were still many doubts in Lin Bai's mind, and what puzzled him the most was what his true master had said. The reason why he was able to leave the Black Hell was due to him. Although he had guessed at the answers to these questions, he could only be at ease when he came to a conclusion from the true master.

"It's very simple. Back then, in order to change the layout of the Lake of Mos, you changed Jinling's dragon vein, causing an abnormal movement of Jinling's earth energy. This naturally altered the restraining effect of the Dark Prison, giving me hope of escaping. Yao Guangxiao was surprised for a moment when he heard this. He smirked and faintly said, "Are you regretting your actions from before?"

"Do you regret it?" If he said he had no regrets, that was a lie. However, he knew from his heart that if he had returned to the situation from before, even if he had known that his real master was imprisoned in the Black Hell and was walking the streets of Jinling at night, he would still have done the same thing without hesitation.

It was because at that time, what he needed to care about was the lives of millions of people, and if he wanted to protect those fresh lives, he only had this choice. So he did not regret it, because he did not need to regret anything he had done.

"I have to say, Uncle Liu really did leave a good disciple behind. Not only did he help me walk out of the Black Hell, he even helped me clean up the eight locks." Staring at Lin Bai, he said sarcastically, "I'm not from your department. Uncle Liu is certain that I can't change the Eight Lock Dragon Chief, but I'm afraid that one day, his department head will make a move against the Eight Lock Dragon Chief, allowing me to effortlessly remove the Eight Lock Dragon Chief's binding effect."

However, contrary to Yao Guangxiao's expectations, after Lin Bai heard his words, his face did not have the slightest hint of regret. Instead, it was as calm as still water. Yao Guangxiao didn't understand the reason behind Lin Bai's actions, but Lin Bai was clear on the reason. For a matter like the Eight Lock Dragon Chief, even if he knew that he couldn't do it, he still had to do it. There was a wolf in front, and a tiger in the back.

These were all things that could not be helped, and also things that Lin Bai could not change. As a man, once he did something, he would do it.

"The matter with Bu Yitian Shu, along with Master Ye and Master Gu from the Hundred Thousand Mountains, they should all be done by you, right?" After a long silence, Lin Bai stared into Yao Guangxiao's sunken eyes as he slowly spoke.

"That's right." When Yao Guangxiao heard this, he sneered and lightly said, "The matter regarding Bu Yi's Heavenly Book was indeed spread out from me. "Alas, that Ye surnamed Ye's aptitude is really too poor. By chance, I took advantage of the Black Hell Prison being loosened and sent out a strand of spiritual will to him, giving him the Heavenly Book of Bu YI. However, it did not have the slightest effect."

"At that time, I was already in despair, thinking that I would never be able to leave this Black Hell Prison for the rest of my life. However, he didn't expect that even though that surnamed Ye wasn't very powerful, he had accidentally leaked the news about Bu Yi's Heavenly Book. "Moreover, this matter spread more and more. In the end, it even reached the ears of the kid surnamed Zhao, who was a descendant of Zhao Song."

"That kid surnamed Zhao, even though his aptitude is extremely poor, he's still a good person to create. Moreover, his scheming ability is only limited to you. Not only did he notice the matter regarding Bu Yi's Heavenly Tome Monolith before you, but after he learned of it, he also went all out to come here. He even used a secret technique to use his divine will to find out where I am, and after shocking this old man's cultivation to the point of being godly, he kowtowed and begged me to teach him the secret technique. Seeing how sincere he is, this old man will naturally give him some pointers. "

So it was like that. Hearing Yao Guangxiao's words, the suspicion in Lin Bai's heart disappeared. After he met Master Lao Shi in the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range, he already felt that something was very strange. How could that person have appeared there so coincidentally? However, under the circumstances, he did not investigate further. Now that he thought about it, everything was exactly as he had predicted. Everything was done by Zhao Jingting.

"It was probably you who ordered Zhao Jingting to do this, right?" After being silent for a long time, he shook his head and forced these thoughts out of his mind.

"It was a weird change when he escaped. I didn't think that he would actually still be alive." Yao Guangxiao faintly smiled and slowly said, "I originally wanted to let Zhao Jingjing undo the seal and let the insect plague appear in the world so that I could change my terrain and have a chance to escape. I didn't expect that brat to be so useless."

"But what I didn't expect was after this matter was over, I actually found out about your existence from that boy's mouth. Your existence can be said to be the greatest gift bestowed upon me by the heavens, as well as the best compensation for the hundreds of years of suffering I have endured. "

His eyes that were as deep as a black hole stared intently at Lin Bai, as if he was staring at a rare treasure, and said slowly: "After knowing of your existence, this old man saw the possibility of walking out of the prison, so I made that Zhao Jing Ting take the lead step by step and gave you a lot of sharpening stones, allowing your cultivation to progress even further, making it easier for you to open the prison for me!"

"Like I said before, with Zhao Jingting's scheming mind and cultivation level, how could she have done so many things? And the things that happened always make me feel as if there was a giant hand pulling me …" When Lin Bai heard this, he forced a smile and said slowly, "So you really did have a big hand. Everything was done under your guidance."

"That's right!" In terms of scheming, who can be my, Yao Guangxiao's, opponent in this world, and in terms of endurance, who can be my opponent in Black Hell for hundreds of years! " Yao Guangxiao laughed coldly when he heard this. He slowly continued, "Even that Zhao Jingjing would have thought that this old man only gave him some pointers. I only felt a trace of the aura of the World Tree from him."

He had fought with a tiger for its skin, and not even a corpse was left behind. Upon hearing these words, Lin Bai softly sighed.

It was a coincidence that Master Ye had obtained Bu Yi's Heavenly Book. Unfortunately, that Zhao Jing Ting had been blinded by lard and didn't know how he would end up in such a situation. Because of him, not only had Jian Mu, the guardian of the family, fallen into the hands of the ambitious Yao Guangxiao, even the destruction of Zhao Song's descendants could be said to have been caused by his evil deeds.

Everything finally came to an end, but at this moment, there were still two major doubts remaining in Lin Bai's mind.
