Fang Zhengzhi knew what the Heavenly Oasis Saint was thinking. He was tempted by money and exaggerated the dangers of the outside world to make Fang Zhengzhi submit.
This was a very normal mentality.
When a person knew how vast and scary the outside world was, he would feel uneasy. The Shadow Sect's door was right in front of him. He had immense wealth and a superior status.
Reject?
That was not possible.
However, Fang Zhengzhi rejected them. He rejected them once a day for more than a year. He rejected them cleanly every single time.
The reason was simple, conditions.
In exchange, Fang Zhengzhi had to swear his loyalty to the Shadow Sect. He had to take responsibility for the Shadow Sect's development. He had no regrets.
Of course, as a reward, the Shadow Sect could help Fang Zhengzhi fulfill many of his wishes. Wealth, power, everything. Most importantly, Wu Yuer would consider accepting his advances.
It was a worry-free life with both money and women.
However, to Fang Zhengzhi, this was no different from cheating his father.
Wu Yuer would agree to Fang Zhengzhi's advances, and even consider it?
Fang Zhengzhi was a man. How could he allow himself to be suspected of marrying into the family? As such, he rejected them decisively.
The result was obvious.
Fang Zhengzhi became the Shadow Sect's helper. He helped the Shadow Sect achieve their dream of becoming a business empire. He kept coming up with ideas to earn money for the Shadow Sect.
The Shadow Sect became Fang Zhengzhi's helper, providing him with an endless supply of information.
This was also a form of equivalent exchange.
However, this was not a complete exchange. For example, what was behind the new door? The Heavenly Oasis Saint would never say. Furthermore, the Shadow Sect could only provide limited assistance.
To put it bluntly...
Fang Zhengzhi could spend money, but he had to earn it first. Once he earned it, he would have control over it. This was a new form of cooperation.
In Fang Zhengzhi's own words, it was a win-win situation.
It was a good result.
Fang Zhengzhi was satisfied. However, the Heavenly Oasis Saint was dissatisfied. Especially when Fang Zhengzhi's wealth and manpower increased, the Heavenly Oasis Saint's' dissatisfaction 'grew.
However...
Fang Zhengzhi was not stupid.
He had already used the Heavenly Oasis Saint's' low-level trickery 'in his previous life. How could he fall for it?
Just like what the Heavenly Oasis Saint had said, Shadow Sect was not the biggest power.
Since it wasn't the biggest force.
Then why did he even add Dan Dan?
Furthermore, Fang Zhengzhi loved a carefree and leisurely life. Why did he have to tie himself to the Shadow Sect and live and die together?
That was what Fang Zhengzhi thought in the past.
But now, there was a slight change in his thinking.
The Dragon Slayer Slash, which had been enhanced by more than ten times, could only injure this woman called Cang Yue. Ling Yun, what exactly was that thing?
"Weng!" The sound of heaven and earth shaking rang out.
The flowing Milky Way stopped strangely in front of Ping Yang. That resplendent spot of light flickered, but it didn't move an inch forward.
Cang Yue's hand stopped.
She did not look at Fang Zhengzhi. Instead, she looked at Ping Yang. She looked at the light in Ping Yang's eyes, the light that shone in the darkness.
Following Cang Yue's gaze, the speck of light gradually grew bigger and brightened up the darkness.
"What happened?"
"It stopped?!"
"It finally stopped!"
Beads of cold sweat formed on the foreheads of the Mountain Breaking Army and Yan Cloud Calvary. Of course, they had seen what had just happened. In that instant, they were certain that a tragedy was about to happen again.
However, Cang Yue's hand stopped. Her expression was extremely solemn.
Ping Yang's chest rose and fell rapidly. Her face was frighteningly pale, but she bit her lips tightly. A trickle of blood dripped from the corner of her mouth.
"Move aside!" Cang Yue's voice was unusually cold. However, she had no intention of moving an inch forward. This made everyone's hearts tremble in fear.
No one knew why Cang Yue had stopped.
Did she not want to kill Ping Yang?
If that was the case, why did she stop when Ping Yang was blocking Fang Zhengzhi's way? Wasn't this the best opportunity to kill Ping Yang?
"No!" Ping Yang's lips parted slightly. She had no intention of pleading with Cang Yue immediately, but her expression was extremely determined.
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?" Cang Yue frowned.
"Of course you can kill me, but I will not move aside!" Ping Yang did not have any intention of moving aside. In fact, she even spread her arms wide.
However, at this moment, Fang Zhengzhi placed his hand on Ping Yang's shoulder. He was afraid of death. In fact, he was very afraid of death. However, he could not bring himself to stand behind Ping Yang.
Fang Zhengzhi took a step forward and pulled Ping Yang behind him.
He had already put down his sword. The soaring purple light had also disappeared. Fang Zhengzhi looked at Cang Yue, his crystal-clear eyes gazing at the Milky Way in front of him.
Ping Yang wanted to move again, but her body was being held down tightly by Fang Zhengzhi. She could not move at all.
Wu Yuer's lips moved. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she did not speak. She only stood quietly beside Fang Zhengzhi, her hands tightly pressed against her waist.
The Milky Way that was formed by countless rays of light flowed once again. Bit by bit, spots of light slowly surged towards Fang Zhengzhi's chest.
"Cang Yue, even if you do not acknowledge me, I am still half your master. If you dare to hurt them, I will fight you to the death even if I have to use all the power of the country!" Lin Mubai's voice rang out at this moment. It was a very weak voice, but it was filled with determination.
"For him? A person who has less than six months to live? " Cang Yue's hand stopped once again. She slowly looked at the figure in the golden dragon robe on the city wall.
"Yes!" Lin Mubai's expression was unusually firm.
"Why?" Cang Yue asked.
"Dignity!" Lin Mubai did not directly answer Cang Yue's question. Instead, he slowly spat out two words. These two words seemed to be completely unrelated.
"Dignity? Hahaha … what a joke. Alright, I will not kill him. However, Lin Mubai, you must remember, I, Cang Yue, do not mind trampling on your pitiful dignity. The reason why I did not kill him is because he is ultimately a dead man. " Cang Yue laughed. Then, her gaze turned cold. "Also, Lin Mubai, please do not consider yourself half a master in the future. Because, you are not worthy!"
"Not worthy!"
"Not worthy!"
"…"
Cang Yue's voice reverberated in the night sky, echoing through the entire Flame Capital City. However, Emperor Lin Mubai did not say anything else. He only bit his lips.
"Ping Yang, what's wrong?" Chen Feihua's voice broke the momentary silence. Her slightly pale face was filled with anxiety.
"Aunty Hua, I am fine." Ping Yang nodded at Chen Feihua.
This was not a perfunctory reply. She could truly feel that the heat in her body was continuously repairing her broken body. Her blood began to flow again. Her bones began to slowly grow back. Her internal organs were also beating continuously, as if she had been reborn.
However, Ping Yang also knew that the price of her being fine was that Fang Zhengzhi had given her his last ray of hope.
Less than six months time.
Without the help of the Demon Pearl, to step into the Saint State, from the Supernatural State to the Saint State, was there really such a possibility?
Fang Zhengzhi …
You shameless fellow, why did you do this? Aren't you very selfish? Don't you want everything good that you see?
Why, why did you give the Demon Pearl to me!
Fang Zhengzhi did not speak. He did not even look at Ping Yang's eyes. He only slowly kept the sword in his pocket, then looked at the pouring rain.
Not dead?
Hmm, the correct way to put it was that he was not dead yet.
Indeed, he should have been the fisherman, quietly watching these people fight and fight. In the end, he would be the fisherman who reaped the rewards.
However, he had still stepped into this place.
Since Wu Yuer was here, Yun Qingwu's plan should be almost complete, right? This time, he had really lost everything.
Fang Zhengzhi felt a little helpless. But this battle was still over.
"Follow me." Just as Fang Zhengzhi kept the Traceless Sword in his pocket, Cang Yue's voice rang out again. Of course, she was not talking to Fang Zhengzhi, but to Ping Yang.
"Go? To where? " Ping Yang's body stiffened. She did not quite understand the meaning behind Cang Yue's words. However, a thought suddenly rose in her mind like a flood.
"Cang Yue, Yu Er, is Yu Er willing to …" Emperor Lin Mubai's voice rang out again.
"It's none of your business!" Cang Yue's gaze turned cold. She had no intention of explaining further. Instead, she turned and walked towards the light pillar that had yet to disappear. "If you want to see your mother, follow me."
"I …" Ping Yang's lips trembled and her chest rose and fell rapidly. She seemed rather agitated. However, she did not follow Cang Yue immediately. Instead, she turned to look at Fang Zhengzhi.
"Why aren't you leaving?" Cang Yue stopped in front of the light pillar. She did not step into it, nor did she turn back.
"I … I'm not leaving!" Ping Yang finally gritted her teeth after a moment of hesitation. She shook her head forcefully, her expression extremely firm.
"Not leaving? Haha … do you really think that you are some princess that everyone dotes on? Let me tell you, even though your mother is my master, you are nothing in front of me! " Cang Yue's body trembled slightly. She seemed to be a little confused. However, after a moment, she turned around again, her expression as cold as ice.
She did not ask Ping Yang why she was not leaving, nor did she have any intention of probing further. She only used a simple sentence to express her decision.
