Douluo: Law of Heaven and Earth

Chapter 952: Lu Qibin's Past - Extra : Fake Death

Looking at the metal ball that Lu Qibin took out from his neck, Zhou Qing asked curiously, "You said that Li Yang gave this metal ball to Xu Ming, so how did it end up in your hands?"

"Maybe it's fate."

Lu Qibin placed the small metal ball on the table and pushed it in front of Zhou Qing...
···
Xu Ming took the metal ball and looked at Li Yang who was smiling at him. He inexplicably felt ashamed, as if he had been seen through by a girl who was no more than twelve years old.

Ridiculous!

In this way, time came to the next day. Li Yang's heartbeat became weaker and weaker, but he still forced himself to get up and left the confinement room accompanied by Li Gong, Xu Ming and Lu Qibin.

It was an established fact that Li Yang was about to die. They were unwilling to stop him in this final glimmer of life and simply followed him.

Coming to the top of the cliff and looking at the first ray of sunshine in the sky, Li Yang could no longer hold on. His legs went weak and he fell down.

Lu Qibin hurriedly held him up and shouted, "Li Yang! Don't die!"

But Li Yang didn't care about Lu Qibin's crying, he just looked at the red sun rising slowly from the mountains in the east, and murmured: "I'm sorry, cousin, I can look directly at the moonlight and feel its beauty, but I still can't feel the beauty of the rising sun.

Perhaps it was because it was too bright that it overshadowed the rest of the stars in the sky.

Or perhaps, its light is too similar to the fate in the dark, whether I want it or not, its light will shine on me -

I won’t be moved by that.”

Then, Li Yang closed his eyes, his heartbeat completely stopped, he stopped breathing from his mouth and nose, and the residual temperature of his body gradually dropped.

"Dead..."

After examination, Engineer Li and Xu Ming confirmed that Li Yang indeed had no signs of life, his blood had stopped flowing, and his soul power was constantly gathering towards his heart - this was a normal phenomenon. After a soul master dies, the body will instinctively condense soul power into the martial soul for a period of time in order to activate the body's activity.

Li Yang's martial soul is a heart-protecting mirror with a star map engraved on it. When it is released, it appears on the chest to protect himself...

When the elders and the sect leader learned that Li Yang had committed suicide by taking poison, they were shocked and came over to check. After confirming Li Yang's condition, their faces looked extremely ugly.

A person with innate full soul power actually died like this?
It's ridiculous!

“Stargazing is so fascinating!”

"It can also drive people crazy!"

"Stargazing is strictly prohibited!"

"But this helps with cultivation..."

"The sect has been passed down for so many years and has recorded enough astrological signs. We can always help our disciples find the corresponding astrological signs."

"so be it."

The sect leader made the final decision and banned anyone in the sect from studying the movement of stars.

However, Li Yang's body was sent back to the village, and her parents were informed that something went wrong when Li Yang was absorbing the third soul ring and she died.

After Li Yang's parents, brothers and sisters were so sad, they could only buy a coffin and bury her...
···
"Buried with the body?"

Zhou Qing remembered that Lu Qibin said at the beginning that she was buried in the sea of ​​fire, so -

"This is fake death."

"Yes, fake death."

Lu Qibin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. In the confinement room, she told him that she would never lie to him again... but she still lied to him. However, from her personal perspective, it really wasn't really a lie. After all, she said that she was only doing it for herself.

The reason why she left the metal ball to Xu Ming was because she saw that this elderly direct descendant was also hiding, and that was also to help Smith fulfill his wish.

As for whether Xu Ming would change Xingguan Sect, Li Yang didn't care. After all -

She lives only to satisfy herself...
···
That night.

A middle-aged woman of about the same height as Li Yang came to the grave where she was buried. She was dressed in rags and lived in a shabby mud house at the edge of the village. She had no relatives or friends, so no one would care even if she died.

"I hope you won't lie to me..."

The woman was a little nervous. She looked around and, ignoring the cold wind, she picked up the hoe and started digging the grave.

After learning that the earth is also a star moving in the void and revolving around the sun, Li Yang began to imagine all kinds of bad outcomes and backed up the data.

Among them, she secretly gave a copy of the backup data to a middle-aged woman in the same village who no one cared about, and told her:
If Li Yang died within a year, her grave would be dug up and a piece of gold would be secretly placed on her chest. It would serve as a payment for the other party to keep her information and allow her to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life.

If she is safe and sound, then the other party can take the information to a nearby city to print and sell it in exchange for money. After all, the outside world's attitude towards the theory of "Earth and Stars Theory" will not be as strict as that of the Xingguan Sect. At most, they will regard it as a strange story.

In fact, the middle-aged woman planned to wait for a month or two before bringing the information to the city, but she didn't expect that Li Yang died within a week of returning to Xingguan Sect...

Everyone in the village guessed that something was fishy, ​​but no one dared to say it openly, and the middle-aged woman actually didn't want to get involved in this mess.

But she was so tired of being poor that she didn't care about anything else. She came to dig the grave that night, hoping to get the money Li Yang promised to provide her with a worry-free life for the rest of her life.

After digging the pit and opening the coffin, the woman first took out the burial objects in the coffin and put them into her pocket, and then went to search for Li Yang's body.

But after searching for a long time, she didn't find anything valuable on her chest. The middle-aged woman was so angry that she punched Li Yang in the chest.

There was a bang.

The woman cursed, "You damned little girl! You actually fooled me! I dug for so long and all I got was some worthless burial objects!"

Boom!

Not satisfied with just one punch, the middle-aged woman hit him a few more times.

"cough!"

Li Yang made a sound in his throat, suddenly opened his eyes, sat up straight, and gasped for breath.

"Ghost!"

The middle-aged woman was startled, but Li Yang, who had just woken up, threw her to the ground and blocked her mouth, saying, "Keep your voice down, I'm not dead!"

"Really not dead?"

After making sure that Li Yang's cold body was gradually warming up, the middle-aged woman finally came to her senses and realized that the other party had already calculated all this, so she asked tentatively, "Did you do this on purpose?"

"How can I get freedom otherwise? I only live for myself!" Li Yang said very seriously.

"And what about the fees you guaranteed?"

The middle-aged woman rolled her eyes and asked about the promise Li Yang had made. “If you don’t give it to me, I will go find someone from the Xingguan Sect.”

"I don't have any money now, but I can take you to where I hide the money, as long as you return the information to me in the end." Li Yang had just woken up and his body was not yet fully warm, so he comforted the middle-aged woman, "If you don't believe me, let's change clothes first."
