"Not Time Freeze? You mean... someone killed these people one step ahead of us every time?"
Seeing her so certain, Zitong Undestroyable could not help questioning her.
If it were Time Freeze, it could still be explained—why, when they arrived here, everyone had only been dead for one minute. But... if they had been killed by someone, could there really be a person ahead of them, timing their arrival perfectly before killing everyone?
This time, not only Zitong Undestroyable was doubtful; even Nie Yun revealed a strange expression.
Even he could not tell whether these people had just been slain or whether time had been frozen. Since the Spiritual Elegance Emperor dared to be so certain, she must have her reasons.
"Yes!" The Spiritual Elegance Emperor nodded slowly. Casually grabbing a handful of dry grass, she tossed it into a stove nearby. The instant the grass touched the flames already burning within, the fire blazed up fiercely. "If it were Time Freeze... the fire would not burn like this!"
Time Freeze was a type of seal that locked everything at a particular moment in time, like a picture book. Had anyone ever seen someone add firewood to the flames in a picture book and make them roar?
"What if the Time Freeze seal's condition for being lifted is us? The moment we enter a village, the seal on that village is immediately undone. Do you think that's possible?"
Fu Anchao interjected.
What he said was indeed possible. Since a seal like Time Freeze existed, if they were the key to lifting it, then even if they did nothing, entering a village would still be equivalent to time beginning to flow again. Naturally, the scene they saw would be exactly like the one before them, with everyone having died one minute
