Time was of the essence and Fang Zhengzhi had no other choice.
After all, any man would know what to do when a woman was drowning. Therefore, he pressed his lips against Yun Qingwu's open mouth.
Saving someone …
There was no need to feel pressured.
Very quickly, Fang Zhengzhi's lips met with Yun Qingwu's.
Because of the reason why Yun Qingwu opened her mouth, he tasted a special taste that made his heart flutter.
However, he seemed to have underestimated Yun Qingwu's state of mind. Based on his judgment, as long as he breathed into Yun Qingwu's mouth, she should stop struggling.
However, how could it be so easy?
"Mmm …" Just as Fang Zhengzhi breathed into Yun Qingwu's mouth, he felt a heavy kick on his stomach, almost causing him to lose his vital energy.
Indeed, using force was not an easy thing to do.
Fang Zhengzhi endured the pain in his stomach and continued to swim towards the bottom of the pond. At the same time, he was hit by Yun Qingwu's torrential attacks.
His stomach, thighs, arms …
He could not remember how many times he had been hit. However, there was one place that he would not let Yun Qingwu's punches and kicks land on.
However, could one clamp their thighs tightly while swimming?
Evidently, it was impossible.
Therefore, he could only hug Yun Qingwu's waist tightly with one hand and grab her thighs with the other.
However, this caused Yun Qingwu to struggle even more intensely. It was a completely instinctive reaction as she wanted to break free from the restraints.
"Bam!" Fang Zhengzhi felt a blow on his throat.
"F * ck … gulp gulp …" Fang Zhengzhi let go of his mouth and cursed. Then, he was forced to swallow a mouthful of pond water.
Oh no.
Am I going to die here?
Fang Zhengzhi had seen many news stories in his previous life. There were many good swimmers who jumped into the water to save a drowning person. However, because the drowning person did not cooperate, he was dragged into the water.
This was a tragedy.
Fang Zhengzhi did not want to be exhausted by Yun Qingwu. However, he could not just abandon Yun Qingwu like that.
There was no other way.
He could only pinch her.
Fang Zhengzhi pinched Yun Qingwu's thigh. He felt that the best way was to wake Yun Qingwu up.
The effect seemed to be pretty good.
Yun Qingwu's body shuddered from Fang Zhengzhi's grip. Then, she stopped struggling and opened her tightly shut eyes.
Beautiful eyes, black and bright.
Fang Zhengzhi looked at Yun Qingwu and saw a tinge of anxiousness in her eyes. It was as though she had something urgent to do.
Then, Yun Qingwu's eyes widened.
"Gulp gulp …" Yun Qingwu wanted to say something but the water from the pond flowed into her mouth, causing her face to turn purple.
There was no other way.
Fang Zhengzhi could only forcefully press his lips against Yun Qingwu's.
This caused Yun Qingwu's body to freeze. Her black eyes widened as she slapped Fang Zhengzhi's chest with both hands. She was struggling, slapping …
However, her strength was obviously much weaker than before.
Eventually, she stopped struggling and allowed Fang Zhengzhi to kiss her. Moreover, she wrapped her arms around Fang Zhengzhi's waist.
Swoosh! At this moment, Fang Zhengzhi felt his vision brighten up and the familiar air returned to his body.
He finally got out of the pond.
If he had not tried his best to swim upstream for a period of time, he would not have had such a hard time. Fortunately, he managed to get out of the pond alive.
"Mmm mmm …" Yun Qingwu moaned and started to push Fang Zhengzhi's waist with her arms again.
"I saved your life again. Does that mean we have settled the debt for helping me merge the Thirty-six Maps of Access to Heaven?" Fang Zhengzhi let go of Yun Qingwu's lips and said casually.
"Shameless!" Yun Qingwu scolded. Her snow-white hair was wet, but she looked exceptionally beautiful.
Fang Zhengzhi was stunned for a moment.
He looked at Yun Qingwu's white hair that was steaming and her white dress that stuck tightly to her body as it floated in the water.
It felt as though Yun Qingwu's hair was shrouded by a layer of mist. It was otherworldly, flawless and did not belong to the mortal world. She looked just like the cold Fairy Chang 'e in the mythical world.
"Can you … let go of your hand first?" Yun Qingwu blushed when she saw that Fang Zhengzhi did not move.
That was because Fang Zhengzhi's hand was still grabbing onto her thigh and it seemed like it was getting more and more naughty.
"Cough cough …" Fang Zhengzhi blushed and loosened his grip on Yun Qingwu's waist and thigh. Then, he turned around instinctively.
However, he felt that something was amiss very quickly.
What if Yun Qingwu suddenly launched a sneak attack from his back?
At this thought, he immediately turned his body back and stared at Yun Qingwu quietly, keeping his guard up.
On the other hand, Yun Qingwu was evidently stunned.
When Fang Zhengzhi turned around, she was still a little surprised. Since when did this shameless brat become more manly?
However, she quickly realized that she was wrong.
That was because Fang Zhengzhi had turned around again. Furthermore, his eyes were even more unbridled than before. It felt as if there was a sense of righteousness in them.
He was indeed a shameless person.
Yun Qingwu sighed in her heart. However, she realized that she seemed to have gotten used to Fang Zhengzhi's shamelessness and did not feel angry or want to scold him.
"Are we even now?" Fang Zhengzhi reminded Yun Qingwu when he saw that she did not speak.
"Up to you." Yun Qingwu did not say anything else. She turned around and swam slowly towards the pond. Her white dress swayed in the water like a fairy.
Fang Zhengzhi smirked.
He knew Yun Qingwu's personality very well and was not surprised. Moreover, Yun Qingwu had woken up and he had finally untangled a knot in his heart.
At least Yun Qingwu did not die.
"You stole my pendant, can I use it?" Yun Qingwu turned to look at Fang Zhengzhi as she walked to the edge of the pond.
"Why? Don't think that I will return your item to you just because you helped me merge the Thirty-six Maps of Access to Heaven. I also saved your life. "
"My dress is in it."
"Erm …" When Fang Zhengzhi heard this, he instinctively placed his thoughts into one of Yun Qingwu's pendants. Very quickly, he realized that Yun Qingwu's dress was in it.
Of course, apart from the dress, there were some other things.
Words could not describe it.
…
While Yun Qingwu found a rock beside the pond to change her clothes, Fang Zhengzhi started to look at the scenery outside the pond.
It could be said to be a wonderland.
Water kept gushing out of the pool like an underground spring. Surrounding it were dark green trees and blooming flowers.
Red, yellow, purple, white … ….
The waterfall and mountain peak that hung upside down in the sky were no longer there. Everything seemed to have returned to the normal world. It was a beautiful scene.
However, to Fang Zhengzhi's surprise, he could not find any footprints at the side of the pond.
No footprints?!
What was going on?
Could it be that the Human Alliance did not enter this place?
However, that should not be the case. Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi were not stupid. They would not choose to jump off the cliff together to "regenerate", right?
Moreover, Fang Zhengzhi remembered that there were traces of water at the side of the inverted cliff. This meant that Mu Qingfeng and the rest had also followed the waterfall to the "sky".
However, why were there no footprints?
Just as Fang Zhengzhi was thinking about this, Yun Qingwu finally changed her clothes and walked out from behind the rock.
She wore a dress with light blue floral patterns.
The main color was still white, but there was a blue ribbon tied around her waist. Coupled with her snow-white hair that reached her waist, it was a beautiful sight to behold.
Her smile could topple a city, and her smile could topple a country.
However, Yun Qingwu did not smile. Instead, her face was slightly pale and she looked so weak that she could be blown away by the wind.
However, Fang Zhengzhi knew that this seemingly weak body gave hope to the entire Monster Race and Demon Race.
Yun Qingwu …
This woman was too wise.
"I took a look at our surroundings. If I'm not wrong, our current position should be a chess piece." Yun Qingwu walked slowly to Fang Zhengzhi's side and sat down, trembling slightly.
He could tell that Yun Qingwu was still extremely weak. It was difficult for her to even stand and walk. There were beads of sweat on her forehead.
"Chess piece?" Fang Zhengzhi was shocked.
Then, he looked around at the dense forest and the white fog that covered the trees in the distance.
"The world is a chess piece and all living beings are chess pieces," said Yun Qingwu calmly.
"So?"
"The Human Alliance should be in another chess piece." Yun Qingwu glanced at Fang Zhengzhi and seemed to know what he was thinking.
"You mean that this is a formation?" Fang Zhengzhi seemed to have understood something when he heard this.
"I guess so. However, it is not an ordinary formation. If I am not wrong, this should be the '36 Heavenly Stars Formation'. It uses the chessboard as the base and every mountain is a chess piece. The waterfall should be the entrance of the formation. Once you enter, you will end up in a different chess piece," explained Yun Qingwu.
"How do you know that this is the '36 Heavenly Stars Formation'?" Fang Zhengzhi was really shocked this time.
While he was still guessing why the Human Alliance did not pass by, Yun Qingwu had already found out that this was a chess piece and knew that it was called the 36 Heavenly Stars Formation.
Who was she bluffing!
Fang Zhengzhi definitely did not believe that there was such a difference between him and Yun Qingwu.
He had caught her a few times.
He did not believe it, he did not believe it!
"Do you remember when you were fighting with Nan Zhongmu, there were many inverted mountains floating in the sky?" Yun Qingwu looked at Fang Zhengzhi and asked.
"…" Fang Zhengzhi's lips moved.
"Those mountains are the chess pieces of the 36 Heavenly Star Formation. I've carefully observed them. We should be on one of the inverted mountain peaks. If I remember correctly, Nangong Mu should have also paid attention to the 36 Heavenly Star Formation."
"…" Fang Zhengzhi did not say anything. Regardless of whether he believed it or not, what Yun Qingwu said was true, even if he did not want to admit it.
However, Yun Qingwu was indeed better than him in this aspect.
While he was still admiring the scenery, Yun Qingwu had already started to analyze everything around her and predicted the place they would enter next.
What the f * ck …
Attentiveness.
Fang Zhengzhi had always known that Yun Qingwu was very good at this aspect. However, he only knew how good she was after interacting with her for real.
Silence.
Fang Zhengzhi did not say anything else.
Yun Qingwu did not rush him either. She also shut her mouth and sat quietly in front of Fang Zhengzhi while regulating her breathing.
"Since you can tell that this is the 36 Heavenly Stars Formation, you should know the exit, right?" Fang Zhengzhi finally asked after a long silence.
"I don't know yet." Yun Qingwu shook her head.
"You don't know?"
"Hmm, I don't know which chess piece we are on now, so I don't know where the exit is. I need to try."
"How to try?"
"If I'm not wrong, every chess piece will have a place that is connected to another place. If we find this place and go to the other chess pieces, I should be able to find out where the 'Heavenly Yuan' is after three tries."
"Heavenly Yuan?"
"Yes, the 36 Heavenly Stars Formation is set up using a chessboard. There are nine star positions on the chessboard and the center is the Heavenly Yuan. If we find the Heavenly Yuan, we will be able to find the exit." Yun Qingwu nodded.
Fang Zhengzhi fell silent again.
Motherf * cker …
He knew that there were nine star positions on the chessboard. Apart from that, he also knew that the chessboard was made up of 19 horizontal and 19 vertical lines and had 361 intersection points.
Three hundred and sixty-one intersection points …
How many changes were there in it?
It was comparable to the changes of the Heavenly Cycle Constellations.
However, Yun Qingwu said that she would be able to find the exit after three tries. Was it because Yun Qingwu was too intelligent or because he was too intelligent?
"Haha, I didn't expect the Young Lord of the Demon Race, Yun Qingwu, to be so weak?" Fang Zhengzhi suddenly laughed after a moment of silence.
"Hmm?" Yun Qingwu looked at Fang Zhengzhi in confusion.
"Since you know that this is the 36 Heavenly Stars Formation, why would you need to waste time trying three times? If I'm not wrong, Nangong Mu has already brought the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race into the chess pieces and started trying. Three times? I'm afraid Nangong Mu is going to beat them to it, "said Fang Zhengzhi casually.
"Don't tell me you …"
