"Fang Zhengzheng?"
"Testify?!"
The Royal Guards, Dragon Protection Squad, and Palace Guards were all speechless when they heard Fang Zhengzheng's words.
"Sigh, Your Excellency Fang's thick skin is indeed not something we can compare to!" One of the Royal Guards shook his head, indicating that he could not compare to Fang Zhengzheng.
"Yes, we can't compare!"
"If I didn't know the truth, I might have believed it."
The other Royal Guards, including the Dragon Protection Squad standing beside Emperor Lin Mubai, all nodded in agreement.
Previously, when Fang Zhengzheng appeared openly and followed Divine Constabulary's Chi Hou into the Flame Capital City, he said that his name was Fang Zhengzheng.
Furthermore, he had the so-called 'proof'.
As for believing it?
Of course not. Most importantly, when he confronted Crown Prince Lin Tianrong at the entrance of the Imperial Palace, Fang Zhengzheng even refuted this' senseless' claim.
But now?
Again with this trick!
Who would believe it?
No one would believe it. Furthermore, Fang Zhengzheng was a Demon King, a Demon King with intelligence no lower than a human. How could he believe such nonsense?
But at this moment, King Xieluo, who was walking towards Fang Zhengzheng, suddenly stopped. Then, he slowly turned his head to look at Qian Wu, "He said his name is Fang Zhengzheng?"
"…"
In an instant, the Palace Guards, Royal Guards, Dragon Protection Squad, and even Crown Prince Lin Tianrong and King Duan Lin Xinjue were all stunned.
He believed it?!
King Xieluo actually believed it!
How could this be?
He was a Demon King, a Demon King with intelligence higher than a human. How could he believe such a blatant lie?
"King Xieluo, you …" Qian Wu's eyes widened in disbelief. He had an agreement with King Xieluo.
In other words …
If King Xieluo really used this' reason 'to fulfill their agreement, then he really could not do anything to King Xieluo.
"King Xieluo? Hahaha … "Ping Yang laughed. After hearing King Xieluo's words, she also looked at Fang Zhengzheng," I think he is just a silly Demon King, right? He actually believed that your name is Fangzheng … "
Ping Yang's tone was a little disdainful, but she did not finish her sentence.
Because, before she could finish her sentence, a figure had already appeared in front of her. His curved horns had a faint golden brilliance, and he was dressed in a white scholar's attire, which fluttered in the night wind. His pair of demonic eyes shone with a strange green light.
"Zheng …" Ping Yang's last word was almost squeezed out from her lips. She stared at King Xieluo, who was just inches away from her, her clear eyes widened.
It was too fast!
She did not even see how King Xieluo appeared in front of her. His speed was even faster than Canyang's during the battle of the Southern Region.
And, most importantly, he … …
Didn't he already believe Fang Zhengzhi?
Why would he still come here?
Ping Yang subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva. At the same time, she tightened her grip on the Blazing Qilin Spear. She wanted to attack, but at this moment, a hand grabbed her hand.
It was a warm hand. Of course, it was also a slightly moist and trembling hand. However, that hand still held hers, and did not let go.
"Shameless brat, he … why isn't he running?" Ping Yang looked at the hand that was holding hers, then looked at Fang Zhengzhi, who was standing beside her.
She could feel Fang Zhengzhi's feelings from the sweat on her palm.
If Fang Zhengzhi abandoned her at this moment, she would not be surprised. After all, standing in front of them was a Demon King, a sufficiently powerful Demon King.
"Is it fun?" King Xieluo's voice rang out. His green eyes stared at Fang Zhengzhi, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, with a hint of mockery.
"Is it not fun?" Fang Zhengzhi's voice rang out at the same time as King Xieluo's voice. Furthermore, he also had a faint smile on his face.
"Hehe, it's getting more and more interesting!" King Xieluo's eyes stared intently at Fang Zhengzhi, and he slowly took a step forward. At the same time, the corners of his mouth curled up even more.
"I think so too." Fang Zhengzhi nodded, and at the same time, he took a step forward like King Xieluo, with a relaxed expression on his face.
Very close!
At this moment, the distance between Fang Zhengzhi and King Xieluo was not more than a foot.
This was an extremely strange scene.
Because, under normal circumstances, Fang Zhengzhi should be running now. Facing a Demon King, at such a close distance, the danger was unimaginable. But Fang Zhengzhi?
He took a step forward!
How could anyone understand this?
And this scene fell into Ping Yang's eyes. Undoubtedly, her palms were a little wet. It was the same sweat that Fang Zhengzhi's palms were sweating. Even someone as arrogant as Ping Yang was extremely nervous at this moment.
At this moment, she naturally understood that King Xieluo's words were just to tease them, just like how Fang Zhengzhi teased the men in black.
But what she did not understand was this.
Why did King Xieluo succeed in making them underestimate him, and successfully appear in front of them, but why did he not make a move?
This question not only puzzled Ping Yang.
King Duan, Lin Xinjue, and Qian Wu were also puzzled.
"Why isn't he making a move?" Qian Wu clenched his fists tightly. He did not think that King Xieluo was a person who liked to drag things out. In fact, King Xieluo was very decisive in his actions.
But …
At this moment, King Xieluo did not immediately attack Fang Zhengzhi. Instead, he unexpectedly 'chatted' with Fang Zhengzhi?
"Are you all together, or just you alone?" King Xieluo did not seem to care about the gazes around him, and continued to look at Fang Zhengzhi with a smile.
"Together!"
"Together!"
"Together!"
Three voices rang out almost at the same time as King Xieluo's voice.
The first voice belonged to Yan Xiu. His face was as cold as ever, and his gaze was fixed on King Xieluo. On his arm, a blood-red radiance was constantly circling around.
The second voice belonged to Ping Yang. Her palms were slightly wet, but her small fists were clenched tightly. Her clear eyes shone with an unusually determined light.
And the third voice …
It was Shan Yu.
She stood beside Fang Zhengzhi, and the pitch-black dagger in her hand was already raised. On the hand that held the dagger, streaks of fiery red cloud patterns were spreading.
"Next!" The fourth voice rang out at this moment.
Then, this voice was naturally Fang Zhengzhi's voice. However, Fang Zhengzhi's words did not seem to be acknowledged by the other three voices.
Because …
At the same time as his voice rang out.
Yan Xiu, Ping Yang, and Shan Yu attacked.
There was no hesitation, and neither did they trust Fang Zhengzhi as they usually did. It felt as though they had completely ignored Fang Zhengzhi.
The crystal-clear blood-red radiance was the first to attack King Xieluo. At the same time, a shadow appeared in front of King Xieluo, and a chilling aura struck King Xieluo's throat.
Yan Xiu and Shan Yu were very fast.
As for Ping Yang, she subconsciously blocked in front of Fang Zhengzhi. Her clear eyes blinked at Fang Zhengzhi, and her other hand hugged Fang Zhengzhi tightly. Her expression was flirtatious, as though she was saying, "Shameless brat, did you see that? I took another blow for you, didn't I? "
"Boom!"
A loud sound rang out at this moment.
Then, two figures hugged each other and flew into the sky. Just like the spears that were tossed into the sky by the Southern Region Army, they flew into the sky in a beautiful arc.
This made Ping Yang curious.
Because, she felt that she should have helped Fang Zhengzhi to block the blow. However, she did not know why, but she did not feel that her back was hit by someone.
But …
She flew again?
What was going on?
Could it be that the shameless brat that she hugged had a conscience, and forcefully swapped positions with her the moment he was hit?
That was not right!
The brat that she was hugging did not move at all.
Just as she was puzzled, she realized a new problem. The direction in which she was flying was not right. King Xieluo was behind her, and when he slapped her, shouldn't she be flying backwards? Why was she flying forwards instead?
"Are you f * cking crazy? Why are you hugging me! "
Just as Ping Yang was puzzled, Fang Zhengzhi's voice rang out beside her ear. It was a voice filled with anger and helplessness.
In fact, Fang Zhengzhi was really helpless now.
Who in a fight would not run to fight the enemy, but hug their own people first? What kind of f * cking new battle tactic was this?
A meat shield?
Alright!
Fang Zhengzhi could understand Ping Yang's thoughts. At that moment, the first thing that came to her mind was to use her body to help Fang Zhengzhi block the blow. The reason was obviously because Ping Yang knew that he was wearing the Great Xia Dynasty's treasure.
But …
King Xieluo was not stupid, alright?
At such a close distance, it was not a problem for him to get behind Fang Zhengzhi.
And most importantly, did Ping Yang not hear that Qian Wu's condition was for King Xieluo to kill him alone? Then, why would King Xieluo waste his time attacking Ping Yang?
Fang Zhengzhi's attack was a little unjust.
Not only was it a little unjust, but it was also a solid hit. A huge force surged into his back, colliding continuously within his body.
"Pfft!"
Fang Zhengzhi's face turned red, and he spat out a mouthful of blood onto Ping Yang's face, adding a bloody flower to her shocked face.
"Plop!" Both of them landed heavily on the ground, sending up a cloud of dust and gravel.
Silence.
But, it was only a momentary silence.
And then, Yan Xiu's eyes turned red in an instant.
"Ah!" A hellish scream came from Yan Xiu's mouth. Then, a cold aura rose from beneath his feet, enveloping his entire body.
"Kacha, kacha …"
Beneath Yan Xiu's feet, cracks spread out rapidly, and the blood-red radiance that enveloped his body became unusually clear.
Just like a crystal.
And at the same time, Shan Yu's skin also turned as black as ink.
That was the result of being covered by countless red cloud patterns. Her originally black eyes turned into flames, and the red flames danced in her pupils, eerie and cold.
"Roar!" A beast-like sound came from Shan Yu's throat.
"Protect the King!"
"Quick, save Master Fang!"
"Stop this demon!"
At this moment, the Southern Region Army was entangled with the Palace Guards. When they saw this turn of events, they immediately turned around and looked at Shan Yu, whose body was as black as ink. They subconsciously changed their direction and rushed towards King Xieluo, who was standing at Fang Zhengzhi's original position.
"Hahaha, interesting, but unfortunately, I have no obligation to kill you!" King Xieluo's gaze swept across Yan Xiu, Shan Yu, and the Southern Region Army. His snow-white scholarly robes fluttered in the night sky, and in an instant, his body disappeared.
And in the next moment …
King Xieluo's figure appeared in front of Fang Zhengzhi and Ping Yang. His emerald eyes stared at Fang Zhengzhi quietly, and his lips curled into a devilish smile.
"You should thank me for my honesty, because I will only kill you!"
…
The night grew darker.
Both the Royal Guards and the Dragon Protection Squad were completely stunned by the scene before them, and all of them widened their eyes.
"Is this the Demon King?"
"Too fast!"
"There's no chance of winning!"
"Fang Zhengzhi has already become a cripple after the battle in the Southern Region. That blow just now, he should be dead, right?"
The Royal Guards and the Dragon Protection Squad looked at the lifeless Fang Zhengzhi on the ground, and their hearts were filled with despair. But on the battlefield, life and death were already determined.
Now, they were more worried about the safety of Ping Yang, who was beside Fang Zhengzhi.
Although King Xieluo only killed Fang Zhengzhi, and King Xieluo and Qian Wu's conditions did not mention capturing Ping Yang.
But, what if? Who could guarantee that there would be no 'what if'!
"Ping Yang!" Emperor Lin Mubai clenched his fists, and subconsciously prepared to rush out, but was held back by Chen Feihua and the Dragon Protection Squad.
"Your Majesty, leave the Princess to us!"
"Quick, save the Princess!"
"Yes!"
Following the command, dozens of Dragon Protection Squad rushed out from Emperor Lin Mubai's side without hesitation, and rushed towards Ping Yang.
"Hmph, naive! Stop them! "Qian Wu looked at the motionless Fang Zhengzhi on the ground, and his lips curled into a cold smile.
Because, regardless of whether Fang Zhengzhi was dead or alive, the moment King Xieluo appeared in front of him, the outcome was already determined. Or rather, when he set the conditions with King Xieluo …
