Chapter 2894: Has Zhu Yan Really Lost the Dao?
Teng She never expected that Zhu Yan truly knew the location of the Summoning Banner—so why had he endured for thousands of years without speaking? Was it because Zhu Yan wished to avoid trouble?
But why had Zhu Yan spoken now? Wasn't that inviting trouble?
"Zhu Yan, tell us the truth!"
Even beasts of wrath have their own rules—they cannot deceive one another; if one is found to have lied, it is fatal and renders him untrustworthy among them.
"Relax, I won't deceive you—I truly know where the Summoning Banner is," Zhu Yan said.
"Then I'll believe you once more!"
Teng She wasn't speaking recklessly—he didn't want to imagine the worst.
"Is it at Sacred Spirit Mountain?"
"No!"
"Then where?"
"Breakheart Cliff!"
The place Zhu Yan named made Teng She curious too—after all, if it truly lay at Breakheart Cliff, it was the highest precipice in the Primordial Wilds.
Who would possibly place something at Breakheart Cliff?
This time, Zhu Yan did not obfuscate—he revealed everything he knew: a legend he had overheard by chance in the Demon-Imprisoning Mountain.
Moreover, since the Saint Luo Fu appeared, Zhu Yan had nurtured unrealistic fantasies—and that was why he spoke so clearly and plainly now.
"If Saint Luo Fu knew where the Summoning Banner was, he would surely come…"
"No!"
Tao Tie was the first to object.
They could not invite Saint Luo Fu again—last time they did, the Demon-Sealing Array on their bodies grew heavier still; they could no longer bear it.
Why would Zhu Yan do this?
Was it merely to escape? That made no sense at all!
Only with life can one escape!
If one has no life, Zhu Yan's actions are utterly meaningless and cannot possibly connect with them—that was what made everyone suspicious.
"Zhu Yan, are you throwing away your life?" Ying Long asked.
"You once led us in rebellion, but now your strength and circumstances are no longer the same—and we ourselves find it hard to accept!"
Whether or not Zhu Yan proceeded, this matter remained a rift between them.
Besides, in the Primordial Wilds, no one knew the location of Breakheart Cliff—now, to find it, they would have to locate the highest mountain in the Primordial Wilds.
Even those who had left the Demon-Imprisoning Mountain found it unbelievable—how much more so for them?
"You don't believe me?"
"We don't disbelieve you—we need proof, something to make us believe. Every word you speak now raises doubts for us!"
Teng She also felt Zhu Yan might be losing his mind—he had to correct him.
But Zhu Yan did not think so—he had not lost his mind; everything he said was true.
"You don't believe me!"
"Then I'll prove it to you!"
Hearing Zhu Yan say this, the beasts present felt deeply uneasy. They knew Zhu Yan might have gone mad—commonly called "losing the Dao"—how could they possibly bring him back?
Besides, Bai Ze and Tianzhu Xuanwu were not here—what could they possibly accomplish?
Zhu Yan might be faking—but he might also be telling the truth. Teng She could not let Zhu Yan continue like this—she could only join with Tao Tie and Hun Dun to save him.
