Is it really as Xiang Tianyu said?
Doubts rose in Shen San's heart. Visually, Xiang Tianyu, the only one who still retained a human form, theoretically should be the most trustworthy. But... if Xiang Tianyu was trustworthy, why did Duke of Wei choose to seal him in ice along with the others?
Ever since the Duke of Wei underwent Dragon Transformation and set out to sea, his goal had been very clear: a straight path of ice leading north, evidently to rescue someone. It was apparent he hadn't turned into a demon after the transformation; his consciousness remained that of a human's. So why would he seal Xiang Tianyu in ice as well? Was it a matter of being unable to control the situation?
Shen San didn't think so. These ice sculptures were completely separated, clearly not frozen together. If he wasn't mistaken, it meant that even the Duke of Wei couldn't be certain which of them spoke the truth, so in the face of an emergency, he chose to freeze them all!
