Fang Zhengzhi wanted to shout out loud. He felt that he had been wronged. He just wanted to do something that a man should do in his dream, but it turned out to be a tragedy.
Reality?
Dream!
Just a moment ago, he was trying to understand the Great Dao in the Heaven Dao Sage Tablet, and the next moment, he was in reality with a knife in his chest?
Wasn't this a little too fast?
Not to mention Fang Zhengzhi, anyone else who experienced the same thing would not be able to tell which was a dream and which was reality.
As for Fang Zhengzhi's actions, it was also understandable.
Who hadn't had a few erotic dreams?
It was one thing for a normal man to restrain himself in reality, but when he saw a peerless beauty so close to him in his dream, did he really not want to go up and touch her to satisfy his craving?
Fang Zhengzhi was a normal man, and it was understandable that he would think like a normal man. If he had to find a fault in this matter, it would be the connection between the dream and reality …
It was simply too fast.
When time and space intersected, Fang Zhengzhi even thought that the lady in the white dress was Yun Qingwu. Of course, after confirming that it was reality, he knew that it was just an illusion.
This was very easy to explain. Let me give you a simple example.
In your dream, you met an enchanting woman who made you excited. Then, just as you were about to express your excited feelings, you were suddenly awakened. Then, the first thing you saw after waking up was your roommate who was sleeping on the upper bunk.
Then …
You can't just assume that you are gay right away, right?
Of course, only you know whether you are straight or gay. But at least, when you want to express your feelings to a sexy lady in your dream, you can't be gay!
Alright.
That was not the main point. The main point was that Fang Zhengzhi's chest was bleeding. More importantly, Fang Zhengzhi could clearly see that the hundreds of thousands of people below were all staring at him.
Not a single person rushed up to save him!
I am vomiting blood?
Is this how the world is?
What happened to humans working together to fight against the Demon Race? What happened to everyone being a team? Why are the people below looking at him in a daze?
Haven't they seen it before?!
F * ck!
Fang Zhengzhi quickly understood that in this situation, he had to rely on himself. The people below him could not be relied on at all. Hence, the matter in front of him was simple.
He had two choices. The first was to fight with Yun Qingwu on the cliff while his body bled profusely. Then, he could kill Yun Qingwu with his sword and let her bleed to death.
As for why the final result was death from excessive bleeding, the reason was very simple. The humans didn't move, but the demons were.
At the bottom of the cliff, dozens of demon elites, Bai Xing, and Wu Ji were climbing up the cliff like mad dogs...
What was his purpose?
Fang Zhengzhi didn't even need to guess.
The second option was to immediately evacuate to a safe place to bandage his wounds and catch a few people to test his blood or eat some blood replenishing pills.
To put it bluntly, where there's life, there's hope.
As a young man with great ideals and ambitions, he chose the second option. Of course, this did not mean that Fang Zhengzhi was afraid of death. In fact, this had nothing to do with fear of death.
The real reason was that he was a man who respected women.
Mm...
As a young man who had accepted the idea that women could hold up half the sky in his previous life and that women were the other half of men, he always felt that when you touched a woman in front of hundreds of thousands of people, you would immediately raise your sword and kill the woman. This kind of vicious thing was like a snake or a scorpion.
He really couldn't do it.
Even if this woman was the young master of the demons...
But, what did this have to do with him?
Fang Zhengzhi's dream in this life was to travel the world, eat, drink, and be merry. He didn't care about the battles between demons and humans, or the conflicts of interest between countries.
He had nothing to do with any of these things.
As for his purpose in the Southern Region, it was to save Yan Xiu. At the very least, he wanted to get first place in the court examinations. That was not a big deal.
Who wouldn't want to win a "prize"?
However, it was one thing to win a prize. Risking his life for it was not worth it.
Fang Zhengzhi's biggest dream and wish was to live well. If he really killed Yun Qingwu, the Young Lord of the Demon Race, in front of so many people …
Who knew what would happen to the demons in the Blood Shadow City!
Seek protection?
Fang Zhengzhi had seen this too many times in his previous life. If he killed Yun Qingwu, the Emperor would be happy. When he returned to the court, he would hold a celebration and give him an official position. Then, he would be rewarded with a few hundred thousand silvers to spend. Then, he would have to pray for his own good fortune.
Protection? How?!
If Fang Zhengzhi really did not step out of the gates of the Flame Capital City and hid under the feet of the Emperor, then perhaps he could still be protected.
However, what about the Northern Mountain Village?
Fang Zhengzhi had a home in this world. His parents were still alive and there were hundreds of villagers in the village. Killing a few young masters was not a big deal.
After all, even the most powerful families would not dare to do something as despicable as massacring an entire village. However, killing the young master of the demons was different.
Fang Zhengzhi did not want to spend the rest of his life worrying about what would happen to the Northern Mountain Village just for this little bit of merit.
As such, this honor should be given to someone more ambitious.
At the very least, Fang Zhengzhi did not want to poke this hornet's nest before he was powerful enough. As such, he chose the second option.
Next, he had to think of a safe and technical way to retreat.
Run? Where could he run to when Bai Xing and dozens of demon elites were chasing him like rabid dogs? Fang Zhengzhi had no choice but to play it safe.
First, he would take a hostage. To be more precise, a demon. However, the term "demon" sounded a little awkward.
"Tell them not to move, or else, I don't mind killing you right now!" Fang Zhengzhi immediately made his expression look ferocious, and his tone was extremely cold.
"Kill me?" Yun Qingwu's mouth twitched, her anger turning into a mocking expression. Then, the Spectre Blade in her hand turned into a ray of white light.
The torrential rain pelted the cold white light, splashing water droplets into the air. This was the cold energy of the Spectre Blade.
The white light flashed.
The target …
Fang Zhengzhi's throat.
Fang Zhengzhi's expression froze. He had always felt that he should have the upper hand when he was so close to Yun Qingwu.
After all, Yun Qingwu was the noble Young Lord of the Demon Race. However, Yun Qingwu did not even say much to him.
Kill me again?
No, she is courting death!
Fang Zhengzhi quickly understood what Yun Qingwu meant. A woman who was not afraid of death was difficult to deal with. However, that did not mean that she had no weaknesses.
For example …
"If you dare to attack again, I will strip you!" Fang Zhengzhi turned his body sideways and dodged Yun Qingwu's fatal attack. Then, he appeared beside Yun Qingwu and grabbed her throat with one hand while his other hand was still on his chest.
"You … don't you dare!" Yun Qingwu gripped the Spectre Blade tightly, but her body stopped moving. If anyone else had said this, they would have been stunned.
She would not have believed that Fang Zhengzhi would do such a disgraceful thing.
However …
Fang Zhengzhi was the one who had said that.
He was the one who had touched her chest in front of hundreds of thousands of people. He had said that it was soft and warm.
As such, how would she dare to move?
"Of course I dare! In fact, I dare to take another step!" Of course, Fang Zhengzhi couldn't really do that. However, he had to pretend that he wanted to do that. Therefore, his hand slowly slid down and landed on the collar of Yun Qingwu's white dress.
"Kaboom!"
Thunder boomed and lightning streaked across the sky.
Bai Xing, Wu Ji, and the other demon elites were already halfway up the cliff. When they saw this scene, their eyes lit up with fury.
"Bai Xing! If you take another step, I will kill Yun Qingwu first! "
Just as Bai Xing, Wu Ji and the rest were about to speed up, a cold voice rang out from the cliff.
Bai Xing's eyes burned with rage.
However, he still stopped in his tracks.
…
On the cliff, Yun Qingwu's white dress danced in the wind. Her face was pale, but her lips curled into a cold smile.
It was an unyielding smirk.
"Fang Zhengzhi, don't even think about insulting me!" Yun Qingwu's tone was extremely cold. It was as cold as the ice in the abyss.
"You want to kill yourself? You can! However, even if you kill yourself, you will not be able to stop me from doing what I am about to do. I will strip you naked, then, in front of hundreds of thousands of people, I will … hehe, you are the young master of the demons, right? Aren't you afraid that news of this will spread? "Fang Zhengzhi rarely saw such an expression on a woman's face.
Seriously.
When he saw Yun Qingwu's expression, his heart softened. He thought that he could try to explain to Yun Qingwu.
For example, he could tell her that he was dreaming. He did not really want to touch her.
However …
Who would believe him?
No one would. Furthermore, Fang Zhengzhi could sense that Yun Qingwu was determined to die. As such, he had to let her know.
Even if you die, I will not let you off!
Fang Zhengzhi was taking a gamble.
He was betting that Yun Qingwu would not dare to commit suicide by biting her tongue. After all, if Yun Qingwu was forced to die in front of hundreds of thousands of people...
This vendetta would be worse than being killed by his sword. However, if he really let go of Yun Qingwu, he would definitely die today.
He was taking a gamble.
All Fang Zhengzhi could do was to take a gamble.
He remembered that hostage-taking had happened to him and Ping Yang once before. At that time, even the stubborn Ping Yang had compromised.
However, this Yun Qingwu …
She was different from Ping Yang. This was a woman who was not afraid of death.
"You … Fang Zhengzhi! You … do you think that even if you escape today, you will be able to live? " Yun Qingwu bit down on her lips. A trickle of blood seeped out from the corner of her lips. It was extremely eye-catching in the rain.
She hesitated. This hesitation came from the Yun Family, from her father, the Lord Devil Emperor who currently controlled the entire Devil Race. She could die, but she could not let her death become an existence that would stain the Yun Family.
"From the moment you ordered Bai Xing to ambush me, did you ever think of letting me live?" Fang Zhengzhi smirked as he asked.
"I …" Yun Qingwu fell silent. Just as Fang Zhengzhi had said, if she really wanted to get to the bottom of this, it was because she had ordered Bai Xing to assassinate her.
Furthermore, she knew why Bai Xing's attack had failed.
Because …
She had also failed.
She had missed her target. She had missed her target at such a close distance. Logically speaking, it was impossible for her to miss her target. However, Yun Qingwu had indeed missed her target.
Yun Qingwu did not know what she was thinking. Perhaps her hand had trembled, or perhaps she had predicted that Fang Zhengzhi would have a Heart Protection Mirror.
Regardless of the reason, she had missed her target. That was why she had managed to stab in.
"How about we make a deal? Swear that you will not allow the demons to kill me in the future. If you do, I will let you go. Isn't that good? Furthermore, you are the young master of the demons. You should have some elixirs on you, right? Give me two and let me eat them! After all, we have been together before, right? "Seeing that Yun Qingwu did not speak for a long time, Fang Zhengzhi decided to state his conditions.
After all, it was not beneficial for him to drag this on.
"Elixirs? Under the moonlight, drinking and playing the zither? " Yun Qingwu had always thought that she understood Fang Zhengzhi. However, when she was in close proximity to Fang Zhengzhi, she realized that she could not keep up with Fang Zhengzhi's train of thought.
A moment ago, he was threatening her. The next moment, he was negotiating terms. Furthermore, he was even talking about together under the moonlight …
Of course, the most important thing was, what was the meaning of asking an enemy for elixirs?
Elixirs …
What were elixirs?
"That's right. Look at how much blood is flowing from my chest. I need to stop the bleeding immediately. If not … oh?" Fang Zhengzhi removed his palm from his chest.
Then, his gaze froze.
This was because he realized that the wound, which was originally bleeding profusely, had miraculously stopped bleeding. Furthermore, the huge wound was actually healing at a visible speed.
