Fast, too fast. From the moment Canyang attacked to the moment Fang Zhengzhi flew into the air, everything had happened in the blink of an eye. It was almost unbelievable.
The settlement chiefs widened their eyes as they stared at Fang Zhengzhi, who was flying into the distance.
They wanted to save him.
They could not do it.
They were not the only ones. Xing Yuanguo could not do it either.
Fang Zhengzhi looked at the blue light in front of him, as well as the skinny hand that reached out from the blue light. He could not see Canyang's expression clearly.
However, he could feel an irresistible force pressing down on his chest.
Heavy, extremely heavy.
"Kacha!" As another shattering sound was heard, Fang Zhengzhi's face turned slightly pale. Of course, he knew what that sound was.
On his chest, where his heart was, there was a heart-protecting mirror.
He had won this Heart Protection Mirror from Chi Guyan the first time he stepped into the Northern Lands Divine Constabulary. It was also this Heart Protection Mirror that helped him defend against a sneak attack by "Bai Xing" outside the Icy Monkey Settlement.
That time, Bai Xing's sword light had been fast and sharp.
However...
All it had done was leave a small mark on the Heart Protection Mirror.
But now, Fang Zhengzhi knew that the Heart Protection Mirror had shattered. Canyang hadn't used any weapons, but it had shattered in one blow.
That was why he used the word "terrifying" to describe Canyang's attack.
Speed and power were a perfect combination.
Fang Zhengzhi finally had a thought that he had never had before.
That was...
Death!
In fact, ever since Fang Zhengzhi had entered the capital, he had faced a few opponents who were stronger than him. For example, the Vice Domain Chief Ying Shan in the World of the Sage.
One was in the Supernatural State, the other was in the Heavenly Reflection State.
At that time, he had felt the difference in speed between him and Ying Shan. However, even then, he had been able to make out Ying Shan's movements.
It was almost like watching a movie in his previous life.
Even though he could not see it clearly, he could still make out the gist of it.
But...
Facing Canyang...
Fang Zhengzhi had a feeling that he did not even know when Canyang was going to attack.
He had indeed seen Canyang charge towards him, but he had only seen Canyang charge towards him. He had no idea where he was going or where he was going.
He was completely clueless.
"Is there really no other way?" Fang Zhengzhi felt that he had really done his best. He had used all the methods he could think of.
Since the battle was not going well, he led the battle to the gates of the Iron Hill Settlement.
One person's strength was not enough.
He would borrow the strength of Xing Yuanguo and company.
Out of concern for Ping Yang's safety, he planned to force Canyang to give up.
Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner according to the direction he had planned. However, everything had to stop here in the end.
He was up against Canyang.
An exquisite formation could trap many people. If you didn't know the life and death gates of the formation, you wouldn't be able to break the formation. However, there was an exception for one kind of person.
That was someone with absolute strength.
In front of this kind of person, any exquisite formation could only be a decoration, because he did not need to follow the path of the formation at all.
If a mountain was in his way, he would cut it open. If a river was in his way, he would fill it up.
He charged forward.
What kind of array formation could block it?
Canyang had been tricked.
He had given up on Ping Yang and was successfully lured to the gates of the Iron Hill Settlement by Fang Zhengzhi. He had lost the right timing and location.
So what?
All he had to do was force Fang Zhengzhi back to his original position. In fact, he could even force Fang Zhengzhi into a more advantageous position.
As long as he wanted to, Fang Zhengzhi could fight wherever he wanted. Everything was up to him.
Fang Zhengzhi spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and splattered in the air, leaving a trail of red "silk cloth" behind. It was a "river" created by his extreme speed.
"Boom!"
Fang Zhengzhi landed on the ground, sending rocks flying everywhere.
However, that was not the end. The moment Fang Zhengzhi landed, the blue light retreated. Then, it landed on his body again.
It was the same attack in the same position.
"Boom!"
The entire ground cracked open.
Unlike before, Fang Zhengzhi was now lying on the ground, unable to escape by retreating. He could only endure the force that was enough to split the mountains and fill the seas.
"Kacha, kacha …" Cracking sounds rang out continuously. That was the sound produced by the continuous cracking of the Heart Protection Mirror. As these sounds rang out, the Heart Protection Mirror continued to crack.
Fang Zhengzhi also felt that he was in a trance.
The heart.
One of the most important parts of the human body.
In this world, the heart was where the pocket dimension was located.
Canyang wanted to destroy Fang Zhengzhi. He wanted to destroy Fang Zhengzhi's pocket dimension. He wanted to either kill or cripple Fang Zhengzhi.
Fang Zhengzhi did not know if Canyang wanted to kill him or cripple him.
However, that was not important.
This was because he already had a feeling that his heart was about to shatter.
"Bang!" At that moment, the Heart Protection Mirror could no longer withstand Canyang's attack. It exploded, silver shards flying everywhere.
As the Heart Protection Mirror exploded, a bunch of messy things flew out.
Needles, nails, lime powder, food, clothing...
Countless items fell to the ground. This meant that the Heart Protection Mirror was completely destroyed.
"Fang Zhengzhi!" On the walls of the Iron Hill Settlement, Princess Shan Yu stared at Fang Zhengzhi, her eyes filled with anxiety.
The red cloud pattern covered her body.
His slender thighs bent slightly, and just as he was about to jump down, a large hand firmly pressed down on his shoulder, and he was forcefully pressed down.
"Sister, you can't!" Shan Ling's expression was one of ferocity.
"Ah! Let go of me, I want to save him! He is doing this for the Southern Region, let go of me... "
"Smack!" A crisp sound rang out. Then, Princess Shan Yu's body slowly fell to the ground. The red cloud patterns on her body instantly disappeared.
"Take him away and guard him!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
...
Xing Yuanguo stared at the pale Fang Zhengzhi, his fists clenched tightly. He wanted to save Fang Zhengzhi, but he knew that if he did...
Then...
The Demon Domain Chiefs and Vice Domain Chiefs would attack as well.
At the gates of the Iron Hill Settlement, he could attack without any qualms. That was one of his methods of defense. However, once he jumped off the walls and chased after them, it would be a completely different story.
After all, according to the agreement...
Fang Zhengzhi and Canyang were exchanging hostages.
As for what methods they used, that was up to Canyang and Fang Zhengzhi to decide.
"Sister Yan, that shameless fella is about to die! Quick... go save him! "Ping Yang was not far from Fang Zhengzhi.
She could feel how powerful Fang Zhengzhi's attack was.
As for the misunderstanding between Fang Zhengzhi and her...
Ping Yang was stubborn, but she was not stupid.
Chi Guyan's body trembled slightly. How could she not feel what Ping Yang could feel? But could she move? No.
Not even a single step.
However, she could stop Canyang from moving.
"Stop!" As Chi Guyan spoke, she placed one of her hands on Yun Qingwu's throat. There was a silvery-white sword radiance in her hand.
Canyang's hand stopped in mid-air.
However, the light on his body did not disappear. A pure blue glow covered his body, just like the sky.
"Pfft!" Fang Zhengzhi spat out a mouthful of blood.
He spat it out towards Canyang's face.
However...
When the blood came into contact with the blue light, it froze, almost as if it had hit a layer of glass. Then, it turned into a rain of blood.
"Drip, drip..."
The red rain of blood stained Fang Zhengzhi's blue robe, as well as the floor full of hidden weapons and other miscellaneous items.
Amongst those items...
There was also a stone, a black stone.
No matter how one looked at it, there was nothing attractive about the black stone at all. However, when the blood raindrops fell on the black stone, it was as if they were dripping into another dimension, disappearing without leaving a trace.
Fang Zhengzhi did not notice anything wrong with the black stone.
In fact, he only felt one thing, and that was pain. It was very painful. His chest felt like it had been stabbed by a knife.
It hurt like a knife.
Canyang had stopped.
He had expected this to happen.
That was because Yun Qingwu was still in Chi Guyan's hands. As long as Yun Qingwu was still around, he could at least guarantee that he would not die.
That was why Fang Zhengzhi was willing to step forward.
But now...
He felt that there was another way to die. It was a fate worse than death.
"You... you want to destroy my pocket dimension?" Fang Zhengzhi wanted to stand up, but he felt that his body was being suppressed by a strong force, so much so that he could not move at all.
This was not the Heavenly Dao restraining him.
Instead, it was a kind of absolute power.
"Mm, you are smart! Cough cough … "Canyang nodded as he coughed. His wrinkled face turned pale as blood trickled down from the corner of his mouth.
"He's injured?" Fang Zhengzhi did not know why Canyang was injured, but he was sure that Canyang's injury had nothing to do with him.
Was it Xing Yuanguo's attack? Or was it Nangong Hao's attack?
Or was it...
The rebound force of the Heart Protection Mirror on his chest?
Of course, that was not important. What was important was that if Canyang struck his chest again, it would be a fatal blow.
Then, he might really be crippled.
"Let go of me, or I will kill Yun Qingwu!" Fang Zhengzhi was anxious. Canyang stopping did not give him a sense of security.
From Canyang's expression, he could see that he was calm. It was as calm as the surface of a lake, but it was this calmness that made him feel uneasy.
"Kill? How do we kill him? "Canyang's voice rang out once more, still as listless as ever.
His voice sounded extremely weak. However, Fang Zhengzhi knew that there was a terrifying power hidden in this skinny body.
"Even if I can't kill him, she can!" Fang Zhengzhi grit his teeth.
"Is that so? It's a pity that the decision is no longer in your hands. Furthermore, you should remember that her name is Chi Guyan. She has another identity. She is the lady of the Divine Constabulary and the future marshal of the Great Xia Dynasty. "Canyang smiled.
Fang Zhengzhi looked at Canyang's smile.
He didn't say anything, but his expression had completely changed.
Canyang's words were direct and honest. He couldn't find any reason to refute him. He was certain that Canyang was speaking the truth.
Chi Guyan could not kill Yun Qingwu.
She was Chi Guyan, the lady of the Divine Constabulary, the future marshal of the Great Xia Dynasty. She had to think for the Southern Region and the Great Xia Dynasty.
"Qingwu should be awake by now, right?" Canyang did not "look" at Fang Zhengzhi. His hand stopped in mid-air, but he was "staring" at the unconscious Yun Qingwu.
Fang Zhengzhi's expression froze when he heard this.
He finally understood why Canyang had stopped after hearing Chi Guyan's words.
Originally...
He had thought that everything was going according to his plan.
However, from start to finish, everything had been under Canyang's control.
The only reason he was still alive was because...
Canyang was waiting.
He was waiting for Yun Qingwu to wake up. He was waiting for her to witness this moment.
As Canyang spoke, Yun Qingwu's body shuddered. Then, her beautiful eyes opened.
From the way she opened her eyes...
Yun Qingwu looked a little lost.
However, her eyes gradually brightened up. She looked at the silver sword radiance at her throat, and then at Chi Guyan and Ping Yang, who were beside her.
Then, she looked at Canyang and Fang Zhengzhi.
"Can you let me stand up?" Yun Qingwu looked at Chi Guyan.
"Mm." Chi Guyan nodded and retracted the silver sword.
Yun Qingwu did not say anything. She slowly stood up and looked at Fang Zhengzhi, who was lying on the ground. She had a complicated expression on her face.
"Can I ask you one last question?"
"Go ahead, but I cannot guarantee that I will answer." Fang Zhengzhi did not think that Yun Qingwu would have any good questions for him after he knocked her out.
As for the question...
It was just a sarcastic remark.
For example, "Do you feel good now? Look, I'm standing up, but you're lying down again! " Why are the changes in the world so unpredictable?
Of course, Fang Zhengzhi had already thought of an answer.
That was...
