"Since he has already waited for half a month, let's just let him wait a little longer." Fang Zhengzhi twitched his mouth and said nonchalantly as he looked at Chi Guyan's faint smile.
In fact, he was not afraid of Yan Qing. However, as the saying goes, one who survives a disaster is bound to be blessed with good fortune. Not only did he not receive any good fortune, he even created a troublesome problem for himself.
Fang Zhengzhi's forehead beaded with sweat as he thought about the duel where Yan Qing pestered Nangong Mu. Was he going to be pestered by this guy too?
"Do you still remember our promise?" Chi Guyan slowly turned around and stared at Fang Zhengzhi with her bright eyes.
"I do remember, but don't tell me you're trying to take advantage of me?" Fang Zhengzhi's mouth twitched. He naturally knew what the agreement was.
If Chi Guyan had asked him this question half a month ago, he would have agreed without batting an eyelid.
But now, he felt that he had to consider this question carefully.
After all, this promise was a double-edged sword. If he won, Chi Guyan would warm his bed for a month. If he lost …
Ugh!
Fang Zhengzhi instantly felt a chill down his spine.
A valet for a month? Furthermore, the additional condition was that he could only stand and not even sit. He was worried that if he lost, he would have to wait on Chi Guyan for a month.
Out of the remaining three months of his life, he had to serve Chi Guyan for a month. What was the difference between that and killing him?
"No, I will wait for you to recover. Let's have a duel in half a month's time!" Chi Guyan shook her head and gave him a look of "I won't bully you".
"Fighting … This is actually not a good thing. The ancients said, 'A gentleman uses his words, not his fists'. Furthermore, the ultimate goal of cultivation is to attain the Great Dao. If we are always fighting, it will be detrimental to the Great Dao …" Fang Zhengzhi said righteously.
"Hmm, you are right." Chi Guyan nodded and walked to Fang Zhengzhi's bedside. She sat down and said, "Why don't we compete in something else?"
"I'm very good at music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. If I were to compete with you in these areas, people might say that I'm too much of a bully …" Fang Zhengzhi continued.
"Puchi!" Chi Guyan couldn't help but burst into laughter. It was the most fragrant and beautiful smile of a blossoming flower. However, Chi Guyan quickly retracted her smile and said, "Shameless thief, you're quite thick-skinned. In that case, let's see who can climb higher in the Divine Rain Pond. How about it?"
"What if we all reach the Ninth Heaven?" Fang Zhengzhi asked casually.
"I just said that in the history of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, there was only one person who managed to reach the Ninth Heaven. That was the first Pavilion Leader of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, who was once the number one person in the Holy Region, Dugu Jian!" Chi Guyan looked at Fang Zhengzhi.
"So what?"
"Yes, if we both reach the Ninth Heaven, we'll compete to see who can comprehend the Ninth Sage Illustration first." Chi Guyan nodded again.
"What if we understood it together?" Fang Zhengzhi asked again.
"Then it's naturally your loss."
"Why?"
"Because I'm a girl. Furthermore, I'm one year younger than you." Chi Guyan said matter-of-factly.
"…" Fang Zhengzhi's lips twitched. He was speechless for a moment.
That's right, Chi Guyan was indeed one year younger than him. However, she grew up in the Divine Constabulary and had more resources than him by a thousand times. Most importantly, she had the bloodline of Nüwa.
How could they compete?
Alright, they could indeed compete.
After all, he had an additional lifetime of memories.
…
When Fang Zhengzhi walked out of Chi Guyan's courtyard, he had already eaten his fill. The sun was setting, but there were no crows on the old tree.
There was only a figure dressed in a dark green robe standing motionlessly under the tree. He stared at Fang Zhengzhi with a pair of beast-like eyes.
"Yo, what a coincidence." Fang Zhengzhi took the initiative to greet Yan Qing. Then, he quickened his pace and prepared to go for a stroll.
"Unfortunately, I've been waiting for you here." Yan Qing nodded. Then, his figure flashed and blocked Fang Zhengzhi's way. It was very direct and without any hesitation.
"Waiting for me? I'm sorry, I have something to do … "
"Brother Fang, I just wanted to fight with you!"
"Yan Qing, I've just recovered from my injuries. Even if you really want to fight with me, you should at least wait until I've fully recovered." Fang Zhengzhi advised patiently.
"This … Brother Fang is right. I was rude." Yan Qing frowned when he heard this. Then, he said again, "Then I'll come again tomorrow."
"…" Fang Zhengzhi looked at Yan Qing, who turned and left. He was slightly speechless.
He was not afraid of losing. Instead, he knew very well how people like Yan Qing thought. That was a determination that would not stop until he achieved his goal.
To put it bluntly, even if Fang Zhengzhi defeated Yan Qing today, Yan Qing would still come again tomorrow. The day after that, he would still come again.
Once it started, there would be no end to it.
Fang Zhengzhi did not want to be entangled by Yan Qing. More importantly, fighting with Yan Qing was just a waste of energy. There was no benefit at all.
He was very pressed for time now.
He only had half a month's time. He could not afford to waste any more time. Hence, he had already decided that he would use this half a month's time to use his authority as an elder to search the entire Heaven Dao Pavilion.
Without further hesitation.
Fang Zhengzhi immediately walked towards Zang.
"Eh? Is this guy awake? "
"It's really Fang Zhengzhi!"
"Fang Zhengzhi is awake …"
After Fang Zhengzhi walked about a hundred steps away from the courtyard, he was noticed by a few Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples who were strolling around. Then, the silence was immediately broken.
"Hey, come over here!" Fang Zhengzhi hooked his finger at the nearest disciple.
"What? Let me tell you, don't do anything rash. This is the Heaven Dao Pavilion. Although master has taken you in, if you dare to do anything to me … Hey hey hey … Brother Fang, a gentleman uses his words instead of his fists … Let's talk it out. Who knows, we might even become fellow disciples in the future! "
"How do I leave Zang?" Fang Zhengzhi looked at the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciple, who immediately became obedient after being punched, and asked casually.
"That's all? Brother Fang, please hold on, I'll draw you a picture right away. I'm not bragging. Before I entered the Heaven Dao Pavilion, I was famous for my ink painting skills in the Radiant Moon Empire. "
"I'll count to five. If you can't draw me where Zang is, hehe …"
"Ah? Brother Fang, don't worry … "
"Five!"
"…"
"Three!"
"…"
…
After Fang Zhengzhi arrived at Zang, he naturally became the center of attention. Regardless of whether it was the disciples who were preparing to enter Zang or those who had just come out, all of them looked at Fang Zhengzhi cautiously.
In such a situation …
Fang Zhengzhi was still somewhat mentally prepared. After all, after the battle at the Heaven Academic Altar, his appearance had been deeply imprinted in the hearts of every Heaven Dao Pavilion disciple.
He walked into Zang.
The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples at the entrance were also slightly shocked. However, none of them made things difficult for Fang Zhengzhi or stopped him from entering.
Fang Zhengzhi also did not clash with the disciples who were reading in the Zang.
This was because, looking at the so-called Zang in front of him, the white jade platform and the ancient books, he was actually completely stunned.
In fact …
After Fang Zhengzhi came to this world, this was the first time he had truly entered a place like the Zang. When he was young, all the books he had were scavenged from all over the place.
After coming to the Shadow Sect, he basically listened to Wu Yuer and the Heavenly Oasis Saint boasting about how powerful and powerful the Shadow Sect was.
"That's quite a lot!" Fang Zhengzhi smiled. Then, he strode towards the staircase that led to the second floor.
No one stopped him.
Third floor, fourth floor, fifth floor, sixth floor …
When he reached the entrance of the seventh floor, a hand blocked his way.
"I'm sorry, only the Pavilion Leader has the right to enter the seventh floor!" The person who stopped Fang Zhengzhi was an old man. He was wearing the uniform of a Heaven Dao Pavilion disciple, but he looked at least 80 or 90 years old.
"Hmm." Fang Zhengzhi nodded.
It was almost impossible to finish reading all the books in the Heaven Dao Pavilion in half a month's time.
Fang Zhengzhi did not have the ability to see a thousand lines at a glance.
Hence, he chose to start reading from the highest floor that an elder could reach, and then went down level by level.
And the facts proved that …
His decision was correct.
That was because the books on the sixth floor were clearly much fewer than the books on the first floor. As far as the eye could see, there were only around fifty books.
"Looks like some of the secrets of the Holy Region … should be hidden here?" Fang Zhengzhi smiled, and then, he began to flip through the books one by one.
There were even sword techniques?
Hmm …
He had to copy this down.
Eh? There were alchemy techniques, weapon forging techniques, map breaking techniques? Hmm, he had to copy this down too!
Why wasn't there a map introducing the geography of the Holy Region? Yes, there wasn't a geographical map, but there was a map of the forbidden areas of the Holy Region, and …
"Oh? There are so many treasures! " Fang Zhengzhi's eyes lit up. Very quickly, he found a book that described the various forbidden areas of the Holy Region and the treasures within.
The Thousand Years Fire Herb, guarded by the three Sages of the Black Moon Island, was one of the treasures of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain.
Unfortunately …
It was crossed out.
However, why was there a special note saying that it was eaten by someone named Fang Zhengzhi?
The information was updated quite quickly.
