Shan Ling was furious.
He was really angry. He really couldn't understand it. It was obviously a sure-win situation. How did things turn out like this? Was he going to kill the donkey when it was no longer of use?
Hang on...
Was he thinking of...?
A thought flashed across Shan Ling's mind and his expression changed. He realized that he had overlooked something.
From the beginning to the end, he had been thinking about how he could ensure the Southern Region's victory and get rid of Fang Zhengzhi perfectly. However, he seemed to have neglected Fang Zhengzhi's thoughts.
If...
Fang Zhengzhi was thinking of the same thing?
Fear, incomparable fear.
Shan Ling looked around at the settlement chiefs and Southern Region soldiers behind him. He suddenly realized that he had lost control of the situation.
In other words, he was a lamb waiting to be slaughtered!
"Oh? Xing Yuanguo... why is he here? " At this point, Shan Ling's gaze landed on a figure dressed in a purple robe with golden edges.
Then, he was a little confused.
It was understandable that Fang Zhengzhi had brought in the Southern Region soldiers. However, bringing in Xing Yuanguo, the Dragon Protection Squad, and the Mountain Breaking Army...
What was going on?
Was he plotting a rebellion?
Even if he was plotting a rebellion, this was not the way to do it!
Shan Ling looked at Xing Yuanguo questioningly.
Xing Yuanguo shook his head in exasperation. He knew that he had been brought into The Vast World, but he was not as angry as Shan Ling.
He was just a little...
Awkward.
"Everything is but a grain of sand! It looks like this kid's understanding... is a little off! "Xing Yuanguo was speechless.
This was the second time he had been swallowed by The Vast World. The first time was still fresh in his mind, but the second time was different.
Xing Yuanguo looked at the center of the battlefield. He looked at the towering trees, the bloody battlefield, and the corpses strewn across the ground.
This difference was not due to the people who had entered, but rather, it was due to the things that the caster had embraced.
Normally...
Every time he used The Vast World, he had to make a choice.
For example, on Cang Ling Mountain, the Demon Race had chosen to include all the humans and beasts on Cang Ling Mountain.
To put it bluntly, the people and a portion of the beasts on Cang Ling Mountain were sucked in.
But Cang Ling Mountain still existed.
The mountain was still the mountain, the tree was still the tree, and the river was still the river.
However, Fang Zhengzhi was different this time. He had uprooted the entire battlefield, even the Iron Hill Settlement.
In this way, the biggest drawback was …
Capacity and range are limited.
In other words, The Vast World should have been able to contain hundreds of thousands of demon soldiers. However, Fang Zhengzhi's actions meant that The Vast World would not be able to contain hundreds of thousands of demon soldiers.
The result was obvious.
Out of the hundreds of thousands of demon soldiers that had lined up neatly, less than a hundred thousand entered.
Of course, there were still more than 100,000 soldiers in The Vast World. Other than that, there were also the Dragon Protection Squad, the Mountain Breaking Army, and tens of thousands of Southern Region soldiers...
But, in this way …
What was the point?
Was he going to change locations and fight again?
Xing Yuanguo wanted to say something, but he had no idea how to put it. He could explain to the Dragon Protection Squad and the Mountain Breaking Army, but how could he explain to Shan Ling and the Southern Region soldiers?
A misunderstanding?
Who would believe him?
"It's all a misunderstanding, I'm sorry!" At that moment, the voice in the sky sounded again. However, the tone of the voice didn't sound sincere at all.
Instead …
He was excited.
Fang Zhengzhi was indeed excited.
He did not think about why less than a hundred thousand demon soldiers had entered, nor did he think about how he was going to deal with them.
If he had thought about what they would think...
As such, the only thing he could think of was to take things as they came.
Since they were already here, they chatted, drank tea, and moved a small bench to the side to watch the show. If they didn't mind, they could even wave a flag or shout something.
In any case …
What can you do to me?
That was Fang Zhengzhi's attitude.
Shan Ling could tell from Fang Zhengzhi's tone. He wanted to scold him, but the words that came out of his mouth were...
"It's fine, since it's a misunderstanding, I will listen to Official Fang's arrangements!" It wasn't that Shan Ling didn't want to scold him, he just didn't dare to.
The settlement chiefs and the Southern Region soldiers were stunned when they heard Shan Ling's words. They looked at each other and quickly understood what was going on.
"We'll obey Lord Fang's arrangements!" A uniform voice rang out.
Xing Yuanguo was also stunned when he heard Shan Ling and the settlement chiefs. However, he quickly regained his senses. However, he smiled bitterly.
"Official Fang? Is your highness sick? I remember you shouting that you wanted to kill me at the foot of the Sagely Mountain City! "Fang Zhengzhi's voice rang out once more.
"Misunderstanding, haha... that was also a misunderstanding!" Shan Ling gritted his teeth.
"Oh, I see. If that's the case, then we've both misunderstood once, and we're even. I won't hold it against you anymore." Fang Zhengzhi was very generous.
"Thank you Official Fang!" Shan Ling clenched his fists so hard that they turned white. He wanted to say, "Thank you Official Fang, you are magnanimous!" However, after he opened his mouth a few times, he still couldn't say the last few words.
"You're welcome. If you really want to apologize, just give me a few boxes of jewels before I leave!" Fang Zhengzhi didn't mind.
"Definitely!" Shan Ling's eyes were bloodshot.
He didn't understand. Fang Zhengzhi was the one who got him into this mess. How did he end up apologizing? How could he be so shameless to this extent?
Furthermore, he even dared to extort him?
He was the Crown Prince of the Southern Region!
Of course, the most important thing was that he, the dignified Crown Prince, had to agree.
...
Fang Zhengzhi's voice reverberated through the air, clearly heard by Yun Qingwu, Canyang, the demon soldiers, and the Demon Domain Chiefs.
However, Yun Qingwu and Canyang didn't move.
As such...
The Demon Domain Chiefs and nearly a hundred thousand Demon soldiers naturally wouldn't make a move.
All of them stood on the spot, waiting. That was because they knew all too well what was about to happen, and that was what they should be most concerned about right now.
The Mo soldiers were waiting because they had to wait.
However, Ping Yang didn't want to wait. After all, she had waited for too long.
"Fang Zhengzhi, you shameless fella, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and save this princess! Have you forgotten that it was this princess who saved you? You're ungrateful... "Ping Yang's voice rang out. She didn't know why she had to use the term 'ungrateful'.
But that wasn't important.
Because if she wanted to use it, she could use it unscrupulously.
"If you keep your mouth shut, I will consider it." Fang Zhengzhi quickly replied to Ping Yang, but there was no movement.
"I'm not going to shut my mouth, so what? Are you going to disrespect me? Let me tell you, you shameless fellow. You will suffer retribution for being so ungrateful. When I return, I will definitely report this to Imperial Father and make him … not give you any rewards. You will only be a fourth-rank minor official for the rest of your life! "Ping Yang threatened. Her pink lips were pouting. She was obviously in a bad mood.
"Is that so? A rank four official is very good. I like being a rank four official. "Fang Zhengzhi's voice was filled with disdain. In fact, he was very disdainful.
"Then I will ask my father to demote you to rank five, rank six... I will make you a gate guard. You will guard the city gates every day! You can't go anywhere!" Ping Yang continued to threaten.
"Gate guard? That's not bad. I can collect some entrance fees. "Fang Zhengzhi wasn't threatened at all.
"You... you shameless fella, hurry up and save me. If you don't save me, I... I will kill you!" Ping Yang was furious, her face flushing red.
However, her tone had changed. At the very least, she was no longer arrogantly addressing him as a princess.
"Wait and see. How about I recite a part of the Law of Dao for you? Which part do you want to hear? "Fang Zhengzhi wasn't anxious at all.
Chi Guyan was just as calm as Fang Zhengzhi.
Compared to Ping Yang, Chi Guyan was much calmer. Even though her chest was still heaving up and down, her expression was much more relaxed.
The Milky Way pouring down from the sky had already disappeared without a trace.
Chi Guyan didn't ask Fang Zhengzhi when he would come to save her. She just looked at the sky, at the stars. Her bright eyes were filled with starlight, as if she was staring, but also as if she was thinking.
The stars twinkled and the night breeze blew.
At this moment, something seemed to be moving in the sky. It was a very subtle change, like the movement of the clouds in the night.
However, it wasn't the clouds.
It was a very strange feeling. It felt like raindrops were falling. However, the raindrops weren't crystal clear. Instead, they blocked the twinkling stars in the sky.
There was an oppressive aura spreading in the air. That aura came from the horizon, bringing with it an oppressive might that looked down on the ground.
The rain fell rapidly.
Faster and faster, faster and faster.
They were like shooting stars in the sky. However, these shooting stars were all black. It was a type of black that was hidden in the shadows.
"It's finally here!" Close to a hundred devilish domain chiefs looked up at the "black rain" falling from the sky, and the devilish eyes on their foreheads glowed with a dazzling light.
At the same time, they tightened their grip on their weapons.
The rain was approaching.
It was getting bigger and bigger.
There were shadows dressed in black armor. The armor on these shadows was exactly the same as the armor worn by the Demon soldiers.
Of course, there were also spears, bows, and arrows.
They were all exactly the same!
The oppressive aura was getting closer and closer, so close that it was suffocating, so close that it was hard to breathe.
"Kill!" The hundreds of thousands of Demon soldiers roared in unison. Their hearts were filled with fear, but their faces were filled with fearlessness.
They knew that...
At this moment, they had nowhere to retreat to.
...
On the walls of the Iron Hill Settlement.
Xing Yuanguo, dressed in a purple robe, stood at the top of the wall. He looked at the black figures descending from the sky with a complicated look in his eyes.
Once upon a time, he had faced the same situation as well.
At that time, thousands of Mountain Breaking Army soldiers and the Divine Constabulary's Red Pinion Squad had died. That was the worst battle the Mountain Breaking Army had suffered in recent years.
And now...
The same scene was playing out.
The only difference was that these black figures were pouncing towards the hundreds of thousands of Demon soldiers.
Shan Ling's gaze was also fixed on the shadows. The rumour of The Vast World was not a secret.
Especially since he was the Crown Prince of the Southern Region.
Shan Ling knew too well what was in The Vast World. That was why he could not be angry. No matter how angry he was, he could only endure it.
The Tribal Chiefs were also enduring, but at the same time, they felt a faint sense of fear in their hearts. The source of this fear was, of course, the black shadows.
As for Nangong Hao...
At this moment, he had already closed his eyes, his snow-white scholarly robes swaying with the night wind. Ever since he entered The Vast World, he had already closed his eyes. He was like a leaf floating in the air, swaying with the wind.
But he would never go to see where the wind was.
...
The black figures descended from the sky like a torrential downpour.
However, everyone knew that this rainstorm was a rainstorm filled with blood. Because, the moment the black shadow descended, it meant that the massacre had begun.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"..."
Finally, the black figures descended.
They were so densely packed that they completely blocked out the starlight in the sky. It was a black cloud, an extremely thick black cloud, a black cloud that pressed down on the heads of nearly a hundred thousand Demon soldiers.
"Fire!"
The sky was filled with a rain of arrows, like a counterattack, falling toward those black shadows.
However, there was no sound of collision as expected. The rain of arrows rose up, passed through the black shadows, and shot towards the sky. In the end, they slowly returned to the ground.
The sound of swords clashing rang out, accompanied by cries of pain.
Yun Qingwu's body trembled and her face turned pale. This was an expression that she rarely showed, even when she was caught by Fang Zhengzhi twice.
But now...
Her face was very pale.
Her phoenix-like eyes were slightly raised as an unconcealable sadness appeared on her peerlessly beautiful face. However, she still did not speak. She only gently trembled …
