Could it be Senior Lin?

Despite his mortal scholar-like appearance and extreme leanness, Qin Yan was a real sword cultivator after all. Fu Changling saw stars the instant he punched him in the face.

Even without Yue Sinan taking action, he felt that he could be killed on the spot.

After punching him, Qin Yan appeared to feel a little more at ease, so he turned around and said coldly, "Get up."

The sound of this voice startled Fu Changling, who covered his face and got to his feet in a hurry.

He dared not say anything. Being that it wasn't his intention, he felt wronged. If given a choice, he would rather spare Qin Yan such a wretched impression and experience.

But he could also understand that if it were Shangguan Mingyan or Yun Yu who had dumped this kind of stuff on him, he would have killed them without hesitation.

Feeling aggrieved, embarrassed, and a little timid, he trailed behind Qin Yan. "Where is this?" Qin Yan asked calmly, looking around.

At these words, Fu Changling raised his gaze and cast a glance around.

This looked to be a mausoleum, with an arched ceiling and stone gates on all sides, but it had long been sealed. Around it were several wall paintings that appeared to have fallen into decay and were no longer recognizable.

The entire chamber was empty, save for an elevated platform in the middle, on which sat a coffin identical to the one they had both been placed in.

Looking at the coffin, Fu Changling couldn't help but feel a little perplexed. "How come there's only one coffin? Where's Mingyan?"

Logically, the three of them were a team, and Shangguan Mingyan should have been with them since he had also been poisoned.

Failing to see Shangguan Mingyan, Qin Yan instantly probed out with his divine sense. However, upon contact with the stone wall, it promptly bounced back.

Qin Yan frowned. Noticing his uncharacteristic look of shock, Fu Changling couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?"

"The divine sense," Qin Yan replied, surveying all around them, "is unable to probe beyond these walls."

Upon hearing Qin Yan's words, Fu Changling also gave it a try right away.

He was still reeling from the spiritual energy he had lost in setting up the formation. Both his divine sense and spiritual power were considerably weaker than Qin Yan's at this moment, and if Qin Yan's divine sense was unable to probe through, then neither was his own capable of doing so either.

When his divine sense failed to probe through, Fu Changling couldn't help laughing, "Interesting."

With that, he turned back to the coffin that sat in the middle of the chamber. With a lift of his hand, the entire coffin rolled down, revealing the platform's smooth surface.

Fu Changling raised his hand and carefully felt the veined pattern on the platform. Qin Yan just stood there and watched him. After a while of waiting, he noticed Fu Changling's expression became solemn, so he asked, "What is it?"

"We searched high and low, just to find it by chance without even looking." Fu Changling's hand remained on the platform, carefully feeling around, but he was looking at Qin Yan. "Guess what this is?"

"What?" Qin Yan had no interest in playing dumb riddles with Fu Changling and avoided guessing. Fu Changling touched the last stroke in the stone platform's veined pattern, took a deep breath, and solemnly stated, "The third seal."
