At the moment he turned around, Lin Tian noticed a fleeting shrewd gleam in the Fox Concubine's eyes, and he immediately understood that she must have lured Cunzheng to release more shishen. If a formidable one was released, it could be used to kill someone with a borrowed knife, destroying the Demon Blade in the process.
Cunzheng, arrogant and egoistic, didn't notice the Fox Concubine's scheme. Even if he had known, Lin Tian believed he wouldn't have cared and would have released the shishen anyway. This was the cunning of the Fox Concubine, using the Demon Blade's arrogance to trap him completely.
Lin Tian also wanted to escape the control of the Demon Blade, so he didn't warn him, but even a warning would have been useless; Cunzheng wouldn't have listened.
When the blue smoke rose, Lin Tian suddenly felt a heavy aura pressing down. A phrase flashed through his mind, "vast as the heavens and the earth" — indeed, this heavy aura felt deep and thick like the earth itself.
