Dead or alive.
A mother wanted a servant to bring back her own daughter, but she used the words' regardless of life or death '. How could anyone believe that?
As the saying goes, even a tiger would not eat its cubs. Furthermore, this was Ping Yang's mother, the queen of the Great Xia Dynasty.
"Mother... did she really say that?" Ping Yang's voice rang out. Her body trembled and she bit down on her lips.
"I, Cang Yue, will not go against master's orders! So, have you made your choice? "Cang Yue looked at Ping Yang, her expression as cold as a glacier.
"I told you, you can't take Ping Yang away!" Fang Zhengzhi placed his hand on Ping Yang's shoulder. When his hand touched Ping Yang's trembling shoulder, he suddenly recalled the first time he met Ping Yang.
That day, Ping Yang wore a purplish-red cloak and held her head high like a proud 'rooster'. She handed the Snow Jade to Fang Zhengzhi.
"Take my horse to the stable and feed it the best fodder. Do you understand?"
After that, Fang Zhengzhi got together with the Emperor's most beloved princess.
Then, Ping Yang's dominance, willfulness, arrogance, and arrogance all left a 'good' impression on Fang Zhengzhi.
It could be said that Ping Yang had many shortcomings.
However, this person was always by his side. She even used her body to block Ying Shan's attack in the World of the Sage.
Time and time again, Ping Yang's arrogance and willfulness had caused many problems. Even today's situation had something to do with Ping Yang.
But so what?
Fang Zhengzhi did not know why he blocked Ping Yang's way, but he did. If he had to give a reason, it would be because he felt that Ping Yang would not be able to adapt to life in the Ling Yun Tower.
How could a beloved princess of the Great Xia Dynasty 'survive' in the Ling Yun Tower? Cang Yue, Ping Yang's mother, and all the unknowns forced Fang Zhengzhi to make this decision.
"I will not let you take Ping Yang away!"
"And me!"
"Cang Yue, no matter how strong you are, you're all alone today!"
Shan Yu, Yan Xiu, and Yan Qianli's voices were heard. At the same time, Wu Yuer stood in front of Ping Yang.
"Cang Yue, I have indeed let Yu Er down. However, I will not allow you to forcefully take her away!" Emperor Lin Mubai's voice could be heard.
As Emperor Lin Mubai's voice rang out, the Mountain Breaking Army and Yan Cloud Cavalry became solemn. They tightened their grip on their spears.
"I don't agree!"
"I don't agree!"
"…"
Shouts rang out one after another.
The Royal Guards and the Dragon Protection Squad finally arrived at the top of the city walls. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Cang Yue and the pillar of light that connected the sky and the earth.
They didn't understand what was going on.
However, they knew that they were soldiers of the Great Xia Dynasty. That was enough.
"Oh? This is getting more and more interesting! " Cang Yue looked at Fang Zhengzhi and the rest before turning to look at the Yan Cloud Cavalry and Mountain Breaking Army. Her expression became serious.
Just as Yan Qianli had said, no matter how strong she was, she couldn't go against an empire.
"Cang Yue, leave. Go back and tell Yu Er that I will never be able to repay her in this lifetime. However, I cannot allow you to take Ping Yang away like this!" Emperor Lin Mubai slowly stood up from the ground. His eyes were filled with determination.
"What if I insist on taking her away?" Cang Yue clenched her fists. At the same time, countless spots of light appeared on her body.
She couldn't go against the entire Great Xia Dynasty. However, she was Cang Yue of Ling Yun Tower. As such, she couldn't admit defeat, especially not in front of Emperor Lin Mubai.
"You can't take her away!" Emperor Lin Mubai clenched his fists as well. At the same time, a golden dragon rose from his head. Two spots of red light flashed in the golden dragon's eyes.
"Green Dragon Eyes? Do you know what will happen if you do that? " Cang Yue narrowed her eyes. Of course, she knew that Lin Mubai had the Green Dragon Eyes. Furthermore, she knew the ultimate purpose of the Green Dragon Eyes.
Defense was the Blue Dragon Eye's greatest advantage, but it wasn't its only advantage. This was because the Blue Dragon Eye was classified as an attack-type treasure.
"I will die!" Emperor Lin Mubai answered without hesitation. At the same time, he looked at Ping Yang. Looking at her clear eyes, he said, "But I don't regret it!"
"I didn't expect a selfish person like you to give up your life for a little princess. I, Cang Yue, have a whole new level of respect for you. Very well, I, Cang Yue, will grant your wish. Today, I will die with you!" Cang Yue said as she took a step forward.
"Boom!"
Countless rays of light soared into the sky, then fell from the sky, turning into a resplendent Milky Way that fell from the sky, illuminating the stormy night with incomparable brightness.
"So powerful!"
All of the Mountain Breaking Army, Yan Cloud Calvary, Royal Guards, and Dragon Protection Squad were stunned. Cang Yue's power had exceeded their expectations.
However, they didn't retreat.
"Kill!"
"For Princess Ping Yang!"
"We will not compromise!"
Shouts rang out from the army.
Fang Zhengzhi gripped his Traceless Sword tightly. He didn't know what Cang Yue meant by dying with Emperor Lin Mubai. However, he had to prevent Cang Yue from sneaking an attack on Ping Yang.
Wu Yuer, Yan Qianli, and the rest who were standing beside him also had serious expressions on their faces. All of their gazes were focused on Cang Yue.
"I am willing to go with you!" At that moment, a voice rang out in the rain. At the same time, a figure broke free from Fang Zhengzhi's grasp and stepped out.
The rain continued to fall.
Countless raindrops fell on the figure's body, making her bright red dress look incomparably bright. In the bright night sky, it was like the most brilliant captivating red.
"Princess Ping Yang …" Shan Yu looked at Ping Yang and wanted to stop her. However, when she saw the determination in Ping Yang's eyes, she swallowed her words.
"Ping Yang, you can't go with her! If Yu Er didn't say that, I wouldn't stop you from seeing her. However, now … "Emperor Lin Mubai looked at Ping Yang anxiously.
"Father, she is my mother after all!" Ping Yang raised her head slightly and looked at the sky. She looked at the pouring rain and allowed the raindrops to hit her face.
"She used to be, but now …" Emperor Lin Mubai tried to persuade her again.
"She still is, and she will always be!" Ping Yang's eyes were a little dazed, but her tone was firm.
"Ping Yang … sigh …" Emperor Lin Mubai wanted to persuade her again, but he swallowed his words and sighed heavily.
"Ping Yang, have you really made up your mind?" Fang Zhengzhi looked at Ping Yang in front of him and tightened his grip on the Traceless Sword. He didn't know why Ping Yang made this decision.
However, he could understand Ping Yang's decision.
This was a very inexplicable feeling.
"Yes." Ping Yang nodded.
"Lin Mubai, I really envy you. It seems like your daughter's decision saved your life again!" Cang Yue finally stopped in her tracks and turned to Ping Yang. "Since you've made up your mind, let's cut the crap and follow me!"
"Will I be able to see my mother if I follow you?" Ping Yang looked away from the sky and clenched her fists.
"Yes." Cang Yue nodded.
"Alright, I'll go with you." Ping Yang clenched his teeth when he heard this.
"Haha, there is something I didn't make clear. After you leave with me today, you will never be able to return." Cang Yue's voice sounded again.
"Never be able to return?" Ping Yang's body trembled once again. She looked at Emperor Lin Mubai on the city wall, then at Fang Zhengzhi behind her. She seemed to be hesitating.
"What kind of place do you think Ling Yun Tower is? Do you think you can come and go as you please? I can also tell you that once you step into Ling Yun Tower, you will no longer be the princess of the Great Xia Dynasty. You will be an ordinary person. No one will pamper you and no one will care about you. Are you still willing to follow me? "Cang Yue's lips curled up coldly.
"I … I will go with you!" Ping Yang bit her lips. Compared to her usual arrogance, she looked extremely lonely at this moment. However, she still nodded and looked at Fang Zhengzhi. "Shameless brat, I can't pester you anymore. You have to live on. And … and … Sister Yan, she actually …"
"I will pester you!" Fang Zhengzhi interrupted Ping Yang. For the first time, he felt helpless. It wasn't because he surrendered or because he was afraid.
It was because he knew that even if he risked his life, Ping Yang would still choose to leave with Cang Yue. This was Ping Yang's own decision.
"Pester me?" Ping Yang was stunned.
"Yes, I will look for you." Fang Zhengzhi said.
"Will you really come and look for me? Didn't you say that I am unruly, willful … I am not likable at all? "Ping Yang's lips trembled. She looked like she couldn't believe it.
"You are not very likable, but I will still look for you. Remember to wait for me." Fang Zhengzhi's lips curled into a smile.
"Wait for you … alright, I … I will wait for you. I will wait for you for half a year. You have to look for me!" Ping Yang's lonely expression brightened up when she heard this. Her eyes flashed with joy.
"Mm, take care of yourself. Maybe I will look for you in a few days. I will cook hot pot for you then." Fang Zhengzhi nodded and smiled brightly.
"Alright!" Ping Yang nodded solemnly. Then, she quickly turned around and walked over to Cang Yue's side.
"Childish!" Cang Yue looked at Ping Yang and then at Fang Zhengzhi. "You are just a dying Supernatural State cultivator and you want to look for Ling Yun Tower. Fang Zhengzhi, haven't you heard of the phrase 'it is important to know one's own worth'?"
"Of course I have, but I don't think you have. As a servant, don't you know your own status? "Fang Zhengzhi looked at Cang Yue again.
"You have a sharp tongue, but you are still a dying man. Half a year? That's right, there is no point in living for more than half a year. " Cang Yue narrowed her eyes. However, she didn't get angry because of Fang Zhengzhi's words.
"If Ping Yang doesn't see her mother safely, I will definitely kill you. Even if you are hiding in Ling Yun Tower, I will definitely kill you!" Fang Zhengzhi's gaze turned cold.
"Kill me? Hahaha … Fang Zhengzhi, I advise you to take care of yourself. Live for half a year first. Oh, should I remind you that you only have half a year left? Do you understand? "Cang Yue laughed when she heard this.
Fang Zhengzhi didn't say anything else.
There was no point in saying anything else. Just as Cang Yue had said, he only had half a year left to live. Could he break through to the Sage State in half a year?
Fang Zhengzhi subconsciously looked at Yan Qianli.
Sage State!
This was a state that everyone dreamed of. However, even with this state, he still couldn't do anything to Cang Yue.
Most importantly, Cang Yue had the support of Ling Yun Tower. An unknown Ling Yun Tower.
Power. This was the difference in power.
Most of the time, Fang Zhengzhi felt that the problems in this world didn't have to be solved by power. For example, intelligence or luck.
However, this time …
However, he truly felt the disparity in absolute strength.
Ling Yun Tower!
Half a year?
Could he really see Ping Yang again?
"Shameless brat, even if no one believes that you will come looking for me, I will believe you. I will definitely wait for you. If half a year isn't enough, I will wait for a year. If a year isn't enough, I will wait for two years, three years, four years, my whole life …" Ping Yang's voice rang out from behind Cang Yue. Her clear eyes became extremely bright at this moment. There was a dot of starlight in them. It was very small, but it was extremely eye-catching.
"Ping Yang …" Fang Zhengzhi's body trembled. This was the first time he looked at the figure in front of him seriously. He looked at her bright red dress and her clear eyes.
"Kaboom!" Lightning flashed across the sky.
Scenes flashed past Fang Zhengzhi's mind. His promise with Ping Yang, the battle with Chi Guyan in the Heavenly Dao Pavilion, Qin Xuelian, Fang Houde's kindness in raising him, Yan Xiu's brotherly relationship, Shan Yu's silent trust, Wu Yuer's' conditional 'support, and the' item 'that he lost to Yun Qingwu.
He had too many things to do.
If he couldn't break through in half a year, he would die. There was no way out.
Live or die!
