Nearer, nearer!
As the sound of the Guqin became clearer, Fang Zhengzhi knew that he was nearing the "expert". Outside the mountains, the sound of the Guqin could be heard.
This indeed fit the image of the "expert".
But...
Why was there a sense of familiarity?
As Fang Zhengzhi approached the sound of the Guqin, an inexplicable sense of familiarity rose in his heart. Furthermore, it became more and more intense.
Hang on!
Fang Zhengzhi's body suddenly stopped, and his footsteps stopped as well.
And in front of him, a faintly discernible figure had already appeared. The sound of the Guqin was so clear that it sounded as if it was playing right beside his ear. Very, very close.
Fang Zhengzhi could be sure that if he took another five steps, the figure in front of him would be completely exposed in front of him.
However, he didn't continue forward.
Instead, he turned abruptly, and without hesitation, sprinted in the direction of the Northern Mountain Village.
"Since you are here, why are you leaving?" A voice rang out from behind Fang Zhengzhi. It was an extremely melodious voice, like the flowing water in the mountains, flowing into one's soul.
Fang Zhengzhi's footsteps stopped once again.
He was hesitating.
In fact, he already knew who the person playing the Guqin was. But, because he knew, he was hesitating.
Yun Qingwu.
A woman who was once admired by thousands of scholars in the Great Xia Dynasty. A woman who Fang Zhengzhi did not have any feud with, but, was definitely not a friend.
The first time he saw Yun Qingwu, Fang Zhengzhi was very relaxed. Because, at that time, he had a surging feeling in his heart.
After painstakingly cultivating for eight years, stepping out of the Northern Mountain Village, meeting a dancing "singer" at the Hundred Flower Gathering, who would be afraid of who?
The second time he saw Yun Qingwu, Fang Zhengzhi was similarly relaxed.
Even though, it was in Yun Qingwu's territory, and he was in her boat, but, he was confident. With confidence, there was nothing that he could not do.
Hence, when Yun Qingwu dared to challenge herself, he reached out to unveil Yun Qingwu's veil for the second time. Furthermore, with a domineering attitude, he told Yun Qingwu that he was not worried at all.
As for the third time...
Fang Zhengzhi was not too relaxed.
That was because there were many people standing behind Yun Qingwu. Supernatural State, Rebirth State, countless powerful individuals stood behind her and were extremely respectful towards her.
Most importantly, there were countless Demon soldiers waving their spears.
By the fourth time, Fang Zhengzhi almost 'exploded'.
A blind man called Canyang stood beside Yun Qingwu. Fang Zhengzhi had no idea how he survived that battle.
Actually, half a month ago, Fang Zhengzhi and Yun Qingwu had the chance to meet in the Flame Capital City. However, they "brushed past each other".
Then …
This was the fifth time they had met.
Fang Zhengzhi stopped. He did not rush towards the Northern Mountain Village, but he did not have the intention to achieve the fifth meeting.
That was because he didn't know who was standing beside Yun Qingwu this time.
However, there was one thing he was sure of.
Yun Qingwu would never appear outside the Northern Mountain Village alone. Even if she wanted to, the troops of the Demon Race in the Blood Shadow City would never agree to it.
"I don't know why you came to the Northern Mountain Village, and I don't want to know what new plans you have. However, don't you think it's a little too late to come now?" Fang Zhengzhi finally spoke after standing for a while.
Right now, he had no intention of getting involved in the Demon Race's plan to conquer the outside world, because he didn't have any more time to get involved in another battle.
"Why do you think I'm late?" Yun Qingwu's voice rang out from Fang Zhengzhi's. It was calm and emotionless.
"Because I don't have much time left. Therefore, if you want to use the Northern Mountain Village to threaten me, you should have come earlier!" Fang Zhengzhi said casually.
"Do you think I need to use the Northern Mountain Village to threaten you?" Yun Qingwu spoke again. She was still as calm and arrogant as ever, as though she did not care about Fang Zhengzhi's "misunderstanding".
She was still so pretentious!
Fang Zhengzhi sighed to himself.
Of course, it could also be that Yun Qingwu had always been like this.
After all, standing in her position, she had to pretend to be calm. However, Fang Zhengzhi did not dislike such pretentiousness.
On the contrary, he quite liked Yun Qingwu's pretentiousness.
This was because most of the time, a woman's charm was faked. If all the women in the world didn't fake it, then if all the women in the world were afraid and panicky, how could there be waves and surprises in the world?
To put it simply, if a woman could continue to pretend for the rest of her life, she would no longer be pretending.
She would truly possess it.
Evidently, Yun Qingwu was the kind of woman who could pretend for the rest of her life.
Thinking about this, Fang Zhengzhi's lips curled into a smile. This was a very unconscious action. It seemed like he would have this expression every time he met Yun Qingwu.
Conquer.
Furthermore, it was a very intense kind of conquest.
From the first time they met, Fang Zhengzhi took off Yun Qingwu's veil, to the time he destroyed Yun Qingwu's plans. Every time, Fang Zhengzhi was doing this kind of conquest.
It was very magical.
Yun Qingwu was high up in the air. She had an otherworldly aura. That kind of elegance, that kind of holiness, was like a snow lotus that stood proudly on the peak of a snowy mountain.
This kind of woman, coupled with her outstanding status and extraordinary intelligence, as well as her unparalleled skills in zither, chess, and books.
Logically speaking, she should be respected by others, and no one would dare to have any thoughts of blasphemy against her.
Yet …
Yun Qingwu was very useless!
Of course, this did not mean that Yun Qingwu was useless, but that her cultivation was very useless.
A person who always looked as pure as ice and as clean as jade, high up in the air, and had the status of being worshipped by others, but her cultivation was very useless. This kind of strong attraction was really indescribable.
Fang Zhengzhi did not know that he had this kind of feeling in his heart. However, every time he saw Yun Qingwu in her disguise, he would subconsciously want to make Yun Qingwu lose her pretense.
It was as if there was a voice that kept on chanting in his ears.
Quickly release Yun Qingwu.
Release her nature.
Let the bright sunlight shine on her body, let the blue sky and white clouds surround her, let the high up in the air be naked.
"So, the youngest prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, Fang Zhengzhi, is actually afraid of a weak girl like me when you are standing on your own territory?" Yun Qingwu's voice rang out from afar after a long wait.
At the same time, the sound of the zither rang out again. However, it was not loud, as if it was being carefully plucked by slender fingers.
"Such an obvious provocation, do you think I will fall for it?" Fang Zhengzhi's mouth twitched in disdain. He was not afraid, but he knew that if he really walked over, he would be really stupid.
Based on past experience, Yang Ling was not the only one.
The people around Yun Qingwu were getting stronger and stronger.
First, it was the women in green on the boat. Then, it was Demon Domain Chiefs like Bai Xing. Finally, it was Half Sage Can Yang.
It was impossible to say that Yun Qingwu did not know about the battle in the Flame Capital City.
After all, for someone as weak as Yun Qingwu, other than having a strong charisma, she also needed information.
Not only did she know about what happened in the Flame Capital City.
Even the King with a different surname who had just announced the decree already knew?
When Fang Zhengzhi heard Yun Qingwu point out his identity as the King of a different family, it was impossible for him not to be shocked.
After all, he still did not know why Yun Qingwu was at the Northern Mountain Village.
However, Yun Qingwu seemed to have come "prepared".
"Do you think I am trying to provoke you?" Yun Qingwu's voice was soft and mixed with the sound of the Guqin. It was like the flowing water of a stream.
"Isn't it obvious?" Fang Zhengzhi asked back.
"Mm … what if I tell you that there are no other demons around me, that I am the only one here. Do you think I am trying to provoke you?" Yun Qingwu asked back.
"Would I believe you?" Fang Zhengzhi did not think that Yun Qingwu was lying. However, this "truth" was too unbelievable.
She was the young master of the demons.
Her cultivation …
She was crippled.
She appeared alone in the Great Xia Dynasty, and played the zither outside the Northern Mountain Village in the middle of the night, with the intention of "seducing" a "powerful man" like him.
This feeling was no different from the game he played in his previous life, where he would jump the tower and die.
"You don't believe me? Then I will swear in the name of the Demon God that there is only me, Yun Qingwu, outside the Northern Mountain Village today. If there is a second demon, I will perish together with the demon race. "Yun Qingwu's zither stopped and her calm voice sounded again.
Fang Zhengzhi's expression finally changed.
He knew that the Devil Race had a kind of belief in the Devil God. In the face of this belief, all the Devil Race would not and would not lie.
Could it be that Yun Qingwu really came to the Northern Mountain Village alone?
Fang Zhengzhi's eyes lit up. He did not know what Yun Qingwu's purpose was, but he knew one thing.
When Yun Qingwu was alone …
Then, the one who had the initiative should be him!
Kill Yun Qingwu? Then, offer Yun Qingwu's head to Lin Mubai. Then, become the hero of the Great Xia Dynasty and be praised by the people.
This kind of thing did not mean much to the current Fang Zhengzhi.
He had already been crowned the king, what reward did he need?
Lin Mubai would not give up the throne. Even if Lin Mubai really gave it up, Fang Zhengzhi did not want to sit on it.
Not kill Yun Qingwu?
What could he do to Yun Qingwu?
Tie her up? Escort her to Yan Capital?
That did not seem to mean anything …
Fang Zhengzhi suddenly felt a little distressed. Yun Qingwu came to the Northern Mountain Village alone. This was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
However, when such a good opportunity fell on him, he realized …
It did not seem to be of any use.
That was awkward.
"Coming to the Northern Mountain Village alone, are you really not afraid that I will kill you?" Fang Zhengzhi's body finally slowly turned back and looked at the faintly discernible figure not far away.
"No." Yun Qingwu said calmly.
Yun Qingwu did not explain further and did not panic at all. She only used two words to tell Fang Zhengzhi that she was not afraid at all.
This made Fang Zhengzhi feel slightly defeated.
He should have the initiative and the upper hand. He should have Yun Qingwu's life in his hands. However, why was Yun Qingwu still so calm?
That untainted aura, that strength of character that came out of the mud …
Did she really have to act like this?
"Haha … Yun Qingwu is indeed not afraid of death. Do you still remember what I did to you in the Southern Region Icy Monkey Settlement?" Fang Zhengzhi's lips curled into an expression that all men would understand. Then, he walked towards Yun Qingwu step by step.
"Shameless!" Yun Qingwu's voice finally showed some emotion.
In her lifetime, there was only one time when she was emotional after she became the Demon Young Lord. That was definitely when she was in the Southern Region Icy Monkey Settlement.
That time …
She would never forget it.
It was also that time when she was angry for the first time. Furthermore, it was anger and humiliation.
"The moon is very round tonight. Say … there is no one else here. If I do something to you, no one will see it?" Fang Zhengzhi's feet finally passed through the tree that blocked his vision. Just as he passed through the tree, he suddenly felt a strange feeling.
It was an indescribable special feeling.
It could not be described with words. It was very special and very quick. It was just a moment of daze before it disappeared. However, in that moment of daze, Fang Zhengzhi felt as though he had experienced a lot, a lot …
His vision was a little blurry at that moment. However, after the blur, it quickly became clear.
Fang Zhengzhi did not look at the figure immediately. Instead, he looked at his surroundings. Cang Ling Mountain was still as thick and heavy as ever. Everything was extremely familiar.
This was the outskirts of the Northern Mountain Village.
That's right!
Fang Zhengzhi's gaze swept across his surroundings and finally landed on a figure in front of him.
Under the night sky, the stars shone brightly.
The bright moonlight hung high up in the night sky. In front of Fang Zhengzhi, Yun Qingwu, dressed in a snow-white dress, sat quietly on the ground with an antique purple Guqin on her legs.
Her hair cascaded down like a waterfall and landed on the patch of grass.
It was different from her usual attire.
This time, Yun Qingwu did not wear the veil that covered her face. The soft white moonlight shone down from the sky, revealing her beautiful face.
Her eyes were slightly raised, black and bright.
Fang Zhengzhi looked at Yun Qingwu in front of him.
