This voice naturally came from Chi Guyan. After she said that, she left Fang Zhengzhi's embrace.
Then, Chi Guyan turned around and leaped. At the same time, she let out a clear roar. Then, a gigantic white ferocious beast flew towards them from afar.
"Yo!" The beast roared.
Chi Guyan landed on the back of the white beast and flew into the sky without turning back.
This scene happened too suddenly. From the moment Chi Guyan leaped into Fang Zhengzhi's embrace to the moment she turned around and left, it came and went quickly.
Therefore, Fang Zhengzhi only reacted when Chi Guyan's figure was only a black dot in the sky.
Fang Zhengzhi blinked as he looked at the black dot in the sky. He looked helpless as if he had experienced the vicissitudes of life. "What did she say just now … What did she say?"
Fang Zhengzhi wanted to call Chi Guyan back and ask her again, but she had already left. She waved her sleeves and did not take a single cloud with her.
Fang Zhengzhi looked around and realized that everyone was looking at him strangely, as if they had seen something unbelievable.
"What are you looking at? A bunch of idiots! "
"…"
The disciples of Yin Yang Hall were furious. However, no matter how they opened their mouths, they did not say a word. That was because Fang Zhengzhi was already a dead man in their eyes.
In that case, it was normal for a dead person to have a glib tongue.
"Bring him away!"
Great Elder Mo Yu waved his hand and a few disciples of Yin Yang Hall came to Fang Zhengzhi. All of them looked extremely cautious.
"I hope you can keep your promise, otherwise, you will definitely regret it!" Fang Zhengzhi took a glance at Dao Xin and handed Dao Hun over to her.
It was difficult for him to make such a decision, but he did not regret it. That was because he did not have a second choice.
Of course, he could continue to kill, threaten, or even run away first and then turn around to launch a sneak attack. However, Yan Xiu did not have time to wait any longer.
And, most importantly … …
Yin Yang Hall would not give him a second chance to launch a sneak attack, nor would they agree to save Yan Xiu because of his threats. Yin Yang Hall was one of the Five Sects of the Holy Region!
Looking at the sky once more, it could be said that the weather today was pretty good. The sun was high up in the sky, and the sky was blue with white clouds. In addition, they were located in the middle of a mountain range, and the dense forest made for a good scenery.
However, Fang Zhengzhi had experienced the biggest failure of his life today, and the consequence of this failure was losing his life.
…
The Ten Mile Great Swamp was an important place for the demon race.
A huge black stone palace stood in the middle of the island, like a ferocious beast hibernating in the darkness, baring its sharpest fangs.
In the brightly lit hall, a woman wearing a white fur skirt sat on a chair made of white jade, her black phoenix eyes quietly looking down.
She was a woman who possessed all the beauty in the world. She was noble, elegant, exquisite, and picturesque. Moreover, she possessed an enchanting aura that came from deep within her bones.
Monster Emperor Baizhi!
Below Monster Emperor Baizhi stood a woman wearing a white dress. Her black hair cascaded down to her waist like a waterfall. Like Baizhi, she had a pair of phoenix eyes and an alluring appearance. However, as compared to Monster Emperor Baizhi's enchanting aura, she exuded a sense of calmness.
It was Yun Qingwu.
"I have a piece of news that I think you might be interested in." Monster Emperor Baizhi finally spoke after looking at Yun Qingwu for an entire five minutes. That was because she did not see any trace of panic on Yun Qingwu's face. She did not even see a trace of anxiousness.
She was as calm as a statue. Even though she was standing in front of the Monster God, Yun Qingwu's expression did not change at all.
"Mother, are you referring to what happened in Yin Yang Hall?" Yun Qingwu asked calmly. Her eyes were as calm as the surface of a still lake.
"It seems like you are quite well-informed." Monster Emperor Baizhi's eyes lit up, but she quickly regained her calmness.
"Since I have reached the Holy Region, I would naturally be prepared." Yun Qingwu spoke again.
"Haha, tell me your thoughts on this matter." Monster Emperor Baizhi chuckled. Then, she fiddled with her hair and her demonic aura became even more apparent.
"As expected." Yun Qingwu said calmly.
"Oh? Let's hear it. " When Monster Emperor Baizhi heard this, she leaned towards the middle and straightened her posture.
"Fang Zhengzhi is very smart, but he will definitely lose this time!" Yun Qingwu said with certainty.
"Hmm, continue."
"His background has determined that the things he can do will definitely be restricted. Without a background, and without the support of any power, the path he takes will naturally be more difficult than others. Furthermore, it will be easier for him to make mistakes. This point has already been revealed when he participated in the Law of Dao examinations in Da Xia. No matter how intelligent he is, he will still be suppressed."
"Continue." Monster Emperor Baizhi waved her hand.
"However, there was a period of time when he was very powerful!" Yun Qingwu paused for a moment as if she recalled something.
"Which period of time?" Monster Emperor Baizhi's eyes flashed with curiosity.
"After the war in the Southern Region, he received help from the Shadow Sect. During that period of time, he possessed a pair of 'eyes' that was almost on par with mine. Therefore, even I did not dare to touch him. Even when he came to the Blood Shadow City alone and kidnapped one of my Domain Chiefs, I did not make a sound." Yun Qingwu said calmly.
"He was that powerful?" Monster Emperor Baizhi seemed slightly surprised.
"Yes, even though he doesn't have the intellect to shock the world, but his ideas are unbelievably bold. Furthermore, no one can understand him. Because of this, he was able to plot everything within a year. In other words, he was the only one who dared to enter the capital within a year. Furthermore, he entered the capital in broad daylight. Furthermore, he single-handedly toppled the Crown Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty!" Yun Qingwu replied.
"More than a year? Hmm, interesting. "Monster Emperor Baizhi finally nodded her head.
"The only thing he lacked was' eyes'. 'Eyes' that could help him understand the world. He originally had 'eyes', but unfortunately, he lost them after he entered the Holy Region. Perhaps, I should say that the Shadow Sect's Heavenly Oasis was too cautious and caused him to lose this pair of 'eyes'."
"Oh? What do you mean? "
"If I am not wrong, the Heavenly Oasis did not hand over the Shadow Sect's intelligence network in the Holy Region to Fang Zhengzhi when he entered the Holy Region!" Yun Qingwu replied.
"You mean that the Heavenly Oasis doubted Fang Zhengzhi's ability?"
"It was not completely doubting his ability. There were two reasons why the Heavenly Oasis did not tell Fang Zhengzhi about the Shadow Sect's arrangements in the Holy Region. Firstly, Fang Zhengzhi had never agreed to join the Shadow Sect. Furthermore, the intelligence network in the Holy Region was the core secret of the Shadow Sect. Even if the Heavenly Oasis wanted to hand it over to Fang Zhengzhi, the others would not agree."
"Continue."
"Secondly, the Heavenly Oasis felt that Fang Zhengzhi did not have the experience to govern a region in the Holy Region. The situation in the Holy Region was too complicated. The five sects had been fighting for a long time, and Fang Zhengzhi had never stepped into the Holy Region before. Hence, the Heavenly Oasis naturally would not be at ease to hand over the future of the Shadow Sect to Fang Zhengzhi. He was waiting for Fang Zhengzhi to hit a wall once or twice and understand the cruelty of the Holy Region before handing over such an important task to him." Yun Qingwu said.
"What you said makes sense. However, what does this have to do with the 'within expectations' that you mentioned just now? From what I know, after Fang Zhengzhi killed the five Sages at the foot of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, he had already agreed to join the Shadow Sect. Under normal circumstances, the Heavenly Oasis should not have any concerns. "Monster Emperor Baizhi nodded after a moment of silence. Then, she asked again.
"This was the biggest mistake that the Heavenly Oasis made. Considering the bigger picture, he did not want Fang Zhengzhi to join the Yin Yang Hall. Hence, in order to prevent Fang Zhengzhi from having such thoughts, he could only continue to conceal the Shadow Sect's intelligence network in the Holy Region. He was waiting for Yan Xiu to die and for Fang Zhengzhi to enter the Sage Realm. However, he had forgotten about the relationship between Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu."
"So, you're saying that the real reason why Fang Zhengzhi was destined to fail in the Yin Yang Hall was because the Heavenly Oasis was overly cautious?"
"Not entirely. However, if the Heavenly Oasis was able to hand over the intelligence network of the Holy Region to Fang Zhengzhi in advance, then Fang Zhengzhi should at least know that the most terrifying person in the Yin Yang Hall was Dao Xin and not Dao Hun. Without this fatal mistake, Fang Zhengzhi's trip to the Yin Yang Hall would have at least a 30% chance of success. However, the Heavenly Oasis cannot be completely blamed for this, because anyone else would have made the same decision as the Heavenly Oasis. They would not have been so 'generous' as to hand over the entire Shadow Sect to Fang Zhengzhi before he entered the Holy Region. Similarly, they would not have been so daring as to gamble the entire Shadow Sect's future on this slim hope when Fang Zhengzhi was only thinking about saving Yan Xiu!" Yun Qingwu shook her head.
"What if this person was you?" Monster Emperor Baizhi asked curiously.
"I would." Yun Qingwu replied without hesitation.
"Oh? Why? "
"Doing anything is a form of risk. However, the greater the risk, the greater the reward. I would only consider one thing, whether it was worth it or not!"
"Hahaha ….. is that why you gave all 13 pieces of the Heaven Dao Sage Tablet to Fang Zhengzhi?" Bai Zhi chuckled and said.
"Yes!" Yun Qingwu did not deny it.
"If that's the case, you took a huge risk on Fang Zhengzhi. You wouldn't want him to die just like that, right?" Monster Emperor Baizhi laughed.
"Mother, you called me here to ask me about this, right?"
"So, what's your answer?"
"Don't worry, mother, I won't go to the Nine Pinnacles Mountain."
"What's the reason?"
"The time is not ripe yet."
"If that's the case, you would watch Fang Zhengzhi die just like that, right?" Monster Emperor Baizhi's gaze suddenly became extremely sharp, as though she could see through a person's heart.
Yun Qingwu did not answer Monster Emperor Baizhi's question. Instead, she stood quietly on the spot with a calm expression on her face.
It was as though she was thinking and waiting.
Time passed by.
After 15 minutes, Monster Emperor Baizhi finally retracted her gaze. Then, she shook her head and waved her hand at Yun Qingwu. "Alright, you may leave."
"I'll take my leave." Yun Qingwu nodded and did not stay any longer. She quickly turned around and walked out of the hall slowly. She did not even turn back to look at Monster Emperor Baizhi.
…
Ling Yun Tower.
It was like an otherworldly peach garden. Here, it was like spring all year round. Flowers bloomed all year round, and the mountains and plains were dotted with colors. A clear river flowed down from the top of the mountain, turning into a huge dragon-like white waterfall.
Below the waterfall was a bottomless pool of water.
A barefooted young lady stood in front of the pool. Her bright red dress was slightly wet, and the corners of her dress were slightly torn due to being soaked in the water for a long time. Pieces of cloth fell into the pool, and there was a faint dew on it.
At this moment …
A purple figure also descended from the sky. Like a falling leaf, it landed softly beside the cold pond without making any sound.
"Greetings, Lady Cang Yue!" Countless ladies who were standing outside the pool immediately knelt down and greeted her respectfully when they saw her.
"You may leave." Cang Yue waved her hand indifferently. Then, she looked at the young lady beside the pool, and at the torn corner of her dress, "The corner of your dress is torn, I'll get someone to change it for you."
"No need. If I change it, I'm afraid he won't be able to recognize me." The young lady retracted her gaze from the pool, and looked at Cang Yue with her clear eyes. Then, she shook her head slowly.
"Actually, I'm here to tell you that he's already dead." Cang Yue did not seem to be surprised by the young lady's attitude towards her.
The young lady did not speak. Instead, she stood at the same spot and looked up at the sky. She stared blankly at the drifting clouds in the sky.
"It seems like you don't believe me." Cang Yue spoke again. Then, she found a rock and sat down. "However, it's true this time. Fang Zhengzhi went to the Yin Yang Hall, and in order to save Yan Xiu, he actually tried to kidnap the Hallmaster of the Yin Yang Hall. I heard that he almost succeeded."
The young lady's lips moved, as if she wanted to say something. However, she did not say anything in the end. Instead, she looked at Cang Yue again.
