Fang Zhengzhi's mouth twitched at the thought of becoming a sage.
He didn't know what kind of concept Ping Yang was talking about, but he knew that there was a saying in the Great Xia Dynasty: one pavilion, four sages, thirteen constabularies.
One pavilion was the Heaven Dao Pavilion. The 13 constabularies were the 13 steeds that followed the Great Xia Dynasty.
These were all powers.
However, the four sages were only four people.
Just the four of them were able to stand above the 13 Constabularies. From this, one could see the status of these four people in the Great Xia Dynasty.
Fang Zhengzhi did not like to be restricted. However, he knew that if he was not powerful enough, he would not be able to do so. Only when he was as powerful as the four sages could he roam freely in the Great Xia Dynasty.
"Heaven Dao Sage Tablet?"
Fang Zhengzhi gazed into the depths of Cang Ling Mountain. He smiled brightly through the dense ancient trees and the night fog.
Cang Ling Mountain...
That's my territory!
"Oh yes, I saw you kill someone just now?" Fang Zhengzhi did not ask any further questions. He recalled the scene of Ping Yang charging into the barracks and said casually.
"Is there a problem?" Ping Yang looked at Fang Zhengzhi suspiciously.
"Killing is against the law. Furthermore, you killed a few soldiers. That is treason!" Fang Zhengzhi reminded Ping Yang kindly.
"Law? I am the law! Treason? They offended their superiors. If you want to talk about rebellion, it's them! "Ping Yang's face was full of pride, and she didn't care at all.
"Everyone is equal. Their duty is to protect the camp. You can't accuse them of treason just because of their status?" Fang Zhengzhi continued.
"What's wrong with that? I'm a princess!"
"Princess is just a title. Just like me, the Sword Envoy. Do you think I can accuse them of treason just because I have a higher rank than them? Then... So I can kill him? "
"Isn't that so?"
"Is that so?"
"Of course it is!"
"I see. Thank you, your highness!" Fang Zhengzhi chuckled.
"Stupid, you don't even know this. I don't know how you became a rank four Sword Envoy!" Ping Yang looked at Fang Zhengzhi's grateful expression. Her little face was raised high.
When Chi Guyan heard this, she couldn't help but open her eyes. A bright radiance flashed across her eyes like the Milky Way.
"He's getting more and more shameless!"
"Sister Yan, you're awake?" Ping Yang saw Chi Guyan open her eyes. He immediately came over.
"Alright, let's go."
"Alright!"
…
The deeper they went into the Cang Ling Mountain, the thicker the fog became. It was like a layer of dust drifting through the forest, obstructing one's vision.
Deep in the mountains, there was a dense fog.
But for the beasts, it was an excellent hunting ground because they had a sense of smell and night vision that surpassed that of humans. Only then could they become the rulers of this remote mountain.
"Roar!"
The roars of beasts that shook the mountains resounded in the forest.
Ordinary soldiers would naturally not venture deep into such an area. They only guarded the perimeter. The depths of Cang Ling Mountain was not a place they could stay.
Ping Yang was no longer as calm as before. She hugged Chi Guyan's arm tightly and took some time to change into her Red Flame Flower Armor.
However, after Ping Yang changed into the Red Flame Flower Armor, Fang Zhengzhi wrapped her up in a black cloth.
What a joke.
This was the true depths of Cang Ling Mountain.
With the red radiance flowing on the Red Flame Flower Armor, it was definitely a beacon for the beasts to follow. Who knew how much it could absorb?
"Didn't you want to find a few powerful beasts to play with? Are you scared now? Actually, there's no need. This is my territory. As long as you follow me, you won't be in danger. However, remember to pay me when we get back! "As he wrapped Ping Yang up, he did not forget to 'comfort' her.
"Hmph, I don't believe you!" Ping Yang was very unhappy with Fang Zhengzhi's actions. However, after hearing Chi Guyan's words, she held herself back. Then, she took out a black cloak and put it on. However, her mouth was still pouting.
Compared to Ping Yang.
Fang Zhengzhi's expression was extremely relaxed. He strolled leisurely along the way, almost as if he was taking a stroll on Cang Ling Mountain.
Strangely, as the three of them traversed through the dense forest of Cang Ling Mountain, they heard the roars of beasts. However, they did not encounter any powerful beasts.
Chi Guyan's eyes glimmered with shock when she saw Fang Zhengzhi's relaxed expression. She knew that this was all thanks to Fang Zhengzhi.
"You know where all the beasts are active?" Chi Guyan guessed.
"Of course." Fang Zhengzhi did not deny it.
"However, even if I know where the beasts are active, I can't completely control their movements. Hungry beasts will still cross over to hunt. Furthermore, the beasts are active in such a large area. After some beasts die, the others will immediately take over their territory. How are you going to..." Ping Yang was not convinced by Fang Zhengzhi's answer.
"Do you know how to determine location by sound?" Fang Zhengzhi interrupted Ping Yang with disdain.
"Determine location by sound?" Ping Yang was shocked.
"With your intellect, you won't understand." Fang Zhengzhi replied condescendingly.
"Isn't it just determining location by sound? What's so great about that? I thought you were good, but you only know how to dodge!" Ping Yang was displeased.
"I see." Chi Guyan nodded. She finally understood why they were rarely attacked by beasts.
After understanding where the beasts were active, Fang Zhengzhi would naturally choose the most suitable route. Then, he would determine the location of the beasts based on their roars.
This way, they would be much safer in the depths of Cang Ling Mountain.
…
Under Fang Zhengzhi's lead, the three of them walked into the depths of Cang Ling Mountain. They walked for almost four hours.
The fog around them grew thicker and the roars of the beasts lessened.
At this moment, Fang Zhengzhi suddenly stopped. In fact, he was not the only one. Chi Guyan and Ping Yang also stopped at the same time.
Because in such a dense fog, there was actually a faint light of fire.
"Is there a fire?" Ping Yang looked at the light in confusion.
"No, I think it's here." Chi Guyan also looked at the light. However, her tone was extremely calm, almost as if she already knew.
"Looks like it's different from what I imagined." Fang Zhengzhi shook his head as he looked at the light.
"What did you imagine it to be?" Ping Yang asked curiously.
"The place where the Heaven Dao Sage Tablet is placed should be filled with light and holy. If it's accompanied by thunder and lightning, that would be majestic!" Fang Zhengzhi's mouth twitched.
"You sure have a wild imagination!" Ping Yang said disdainfully.
"Boom!"
Just as Ping Yang's voice fell, a voice suddenly rang out.
As if to prove Fang Zhengzhi's words, a deafening roar of thunder rang out.
"Is it going to rain?" Fang Zhengzhi looked up at the night sky.
Specks of starlight flickered faintly above their heads. The bright moon shone brightly from the sky, but it was blocked by the dense trees.
"It doesn't look like it's going to rain …" Fang Zhengzhi muttered to himself.
Just at this moment, the entire ground began to shake, almost as if something was trying to burrow out of the ground.
"Kaboom!"
The violent tremors were accompanied by a deafening sound from underground. Ping Yang's expression changed slightly as she looked at Fang Zhengzhi with her clear eyes.
"The ground is really shaking?!"
"Boom!"
A loud boom that shook the entire Cang Ling Mountain rang out.
However, there was no lightning.
There was only a stream of light that shot out from the ground and into the sky. This sound was the sound of the stream of light that shot into the sky suddenly exploding.
"Is that the Heaven Dao Sage Tablet?" Ping Yang asked.
