There was an ancient saying that went, "When a man is about to die, his words are kind."
Lin Mubai felt that he was about to die, so his words were naturally kind. He did not criticize Ling Yun Tower too much and only wanted to fulfill his last wish.
Fang Zhengzhi didn't want to die yet. Hence, he didn't want to be kind. At the very least, he felt that it was better to fight evil with evil when facing Ling Yun Tower.
It had to be said that Fang Zhengzhi's scolding was rather loud, especially the words "big and round face, as ugly as a demon". It had the effect of penetrating deep into people's hearts.
Fang Zhengzhi had already decided to poke this hornet's nest, so he was not going to be too polite. He scolded them with whatever words he could think of.
After all, it did not take much strength for him to move his mouth.
Of course, the effect of his scolding …
Fang Zhengzhi looked around at the stunned disciples of the Ling Yun Tower and the five women beside Cang Yue, who were in shock.
He felt that the effect was quite good!
Then …
The stimulation that was supposed to come came very quickly!
However, there seemed to be a small accident in the target of the stimulation.
The first person to express his anger was not a disciple of Ling Yun Tower, nor was it the five women standing beside Cang Yue.
The disciples of Ling Yun Tower and the five women standing beside Cang Yue were obviously shocked when they heard Fang Zhengzhi's words. However, they were very quiet, so quiet that they did not know what to say. They looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.
However, Lin Mubai was very agitated. He felt as if he had been slapped in the face. His pale face instantly turned red.
"Fang Zhengzhi, how dare you scold me … Why did you scold Yu Er!" Lin Mubai was very angry, but in the end, he still put down his arrogance as the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
"Shameless brat, why is my mother as ugly as a demon? Furthermore … demons are not ugly, right?" Ping Yang seemed to have her own stance on this matter. At the very least, on the topic of whether her mother was as ugly as a demon or not, her stance was very firm.
After all, no one would think that their mother was ugly.
Fang Zhengzhi was speechless.
It was obviously a very successful method of prodding, but why was it that the first people who were prodded were their own people? And the people who should be the most furious and jump up and shout kept their mouths shut like statues.
What went wrong?
Could it be that the disciples of Ling Yun Tower and the five women beside Cang Yue didn't have the heart to protect their leader's image?
This was a little awkward.
Just as Fang Zhengzhi was wondering if he should continue scolding them, a voice filled with anticipation rang out.
"Fang Zhengzhi, how dare you! How dare you tarnish my master's reputation!" Cang Yue, who was severely injured, called Yu Er 'master'.
Cang Yue, who was Yu Er's servant, quickly expressed her anger while the surrounding disciples and the five women were silent and clueless.
Fang Zhengzhi's eyes lit up.
It turned out that it wasn't completely ineffective. It was just that Ling Yun Tower's reaction was slower.
Then, the next step would be a storm, right?
Fang Zhengzhi did not retort immediately. He decided to wait a little longer. At the very least, he would wait for the five women beside Cang Yue to speak up.
However, the strange thing was that after Cang Yue expressed her emotions, the disciples of Ling Yun Tower and the five women around her remained silent.
All of them stared at Fang Zhengzhi. It was extremely strange.
"…" Fang Zhengzhi blushed. Even though he thought that he was thick-skinned, he still felt a little emotional when he saw the strange looks on their faces.
What was the meaning of this?
The disciples of Ling Yun Tower, who were willing to sacrifice their lives for the sake of victory, allowed him to insult their leader in front of her?
What happened to faith?
Fang Zhengzhi didn't believe it, so he decided to try again. He used a few more vicious words to stimulate himself. "Yu Er, you flat-chested old witch. Not only is your face big and round, you also have big and small eyes, a crooked nose, protruding rabbit teeth, a spotted face, long and short legs …"
In a breath's time, Fang Zhengzhi had managed to integrate all the words that could describe a woman's ugliness into one sentence.
Then, Lin Mubai exploded!
"Brat, don't spout nonsense. Yu Er looks very similar to Ping Yang, especially her eyes. She's not as ugly as you said!"
"Shameless brat, what did my mother do to offend you?" Ping Yang didn't understand either. At the very least, she didn't understand why Fang Zhengzhi was scolding her at this moment.
Of course, in addition to Lin Mubai and Ping Yang's voices, another voice was heard. However, compared to Lin Mubai and Ping Yang's words, that voice was even more direct.
"Please kill him on behalf of Cang Yue!" It wasn't an order. It sounded more like a request. This meant that Cang Yue's status wasn't higher than the five women's.
When the five women heard Cang Yue's words, they nodded their heads lightly. Then, they signaled the two women in white beside Green Jade with their eyes.
When the two women in white saw the five women's eyes, they quickly understood what they meant. They quickly went to Cang Yue's side and guarded her from both sides.
At this moment, the five women moved slowly.
They didn't move too quickly. They walked with ease and slowly surrounded Fang Zhengzhi, Ping Yang and Lin Mubai.
Fang Zhengzhi actually wanted to scold them again.
However, when he saw Lin Mubai and Ping Yang's angry expressions, as well as Ling Yun Tower's disciple and the five women's indifferent attitude, he stopped himself.
His words were at the tip of his tongue, but he didn't say it out loud.
After all, this outcome was completely out of his expectations. How could a tactic like goading someone into action not work on a disciple of the Ling Yun Tower?
Were they too optimistic, or did they not know who Yu Er was? Or was Yu Er just an alias that the leader of Ling Yun Tower used when she was outside?
However, something was not right!
Even if they didn't know that Yu Er was the leader of Ling Yun Tower, they should be able to guess it after hearing Cang Yue's words and the word 'master'.
Could it be that Yu Er wasn't the leader of Ling Yun Tower?
However, if that was the case, how could Cang Yue, who didn't have a high status, be protected by Ling Yun Tower? It didn't make sense at all.
Fang Zhengzhi felt that there was definitely something wrong with this. However, he still couldn't figure out the answer to this question at the moment.
Of course, he didn't have time to think about it.
This was because the five women had already taken their positions. They surrounded Fang Zhengzhi, Lin Mubai and Ping Yang from five different directions.
Fang Zhengzhi only needed one look to know that they weren't standing randomly. They were standing according to the five elements.
"Three against five? I think that's too much. Why don't I fight the five of you alone? Ping Yang and the emperor can leave first. How about that?" Fang Zhengzhi held his sword in one hand and stood in front of Ping Yang and Lin Mubai. He glanced at the five women and smiled.
"Young Master Fang, to be able to speak so confidently about seeking help from others, you are indeed unique. This old man is filled with admiration. Lord Fang, please rest assured. As long as Ping Yang does not make a move, we will not take her life for the time being. When the time comes, we will hand her over to the Tower Master to deal with her personally!" A lady in a red dress with slightly white hair, who was standing in front of Fang Zhengzhi, smiled after hearing his words.
"Old wretch Yu Er, flat-chested wretch!" Fang Zhengzhi nodded. Then, he looked up at Ling Yun Tower in front of him and cursed unwillingly.
"…" The five women heard Fang Zhengzhi's insults again. They looked at each other and the expression on their faces became more and more strange.
However, the five of them didn't hold back.
After greeting Fang Zhengzhi, it was time to fight. They had no intention to continue chatting and arguing with Fang Zhengzhi. The five of them did not hold back at all.
At least …
That was what Fang Zhengzhi thought.
Of course, he didn't mean that they would take off their clothes without holding back. He meant that they wouldn't be able to sleep if they didn't die.
As the saying goes, once an expert makes a move, you'll know whether he's real or not.
Fang Zhengzhi knew when the five women attacked. It wasn't about whether they were pregnant. It was about whether their auras were as exaggerated and powerful.
"Buzz!"
With Fang Zhengzhi at the center, the tender green grass beneath his feet began to grow rapidly, as if it had been injected with a growth stimulant.
A dark green light flickered on the leaves of the grass, making the grass look like emeralds. It looked very beautiful.
Of course, there were two sides to everything.
The more beautiful something was, the more dangerous it was. Even if it was originally just an unremarkable blade of grass, when it was stained with the dark green light, every leaf was like an incomparably sharp knife, causing one's heart to tremble.
Almost instantly, thousands of cracks of various sizes appeared on Fang Zhengzhi's black armor. Every crack was faintly glowing with a green light.
"Eh? Not bad! " Fang Zhengzhi lowered his head to look at the cracks on his body. Then, he looked at the emerald radiance on the bodies of the five women. His smile widened.
It could be seen that the moves the five ladies used were similar to the Jadeite Bamboo Domain. However, there was a huge disparity in the effects of the moves.
Even when he was fighting against Great Elder Ying Yu at the Nine Pinnacles Mountain, Fang Zhengzhi's black armor was not damaged like this.
"Young Master Fang, not bad too!" The lady in the middle also spoke after hearing Fang Zhengzhi's words, and the smile on her face grew even wider.
Obviously, this was a war with a smile on its face.
But what was certain was that the killing intent hidden behind the smile was terrifyingly thick. This could be felt from the hissing sounds of collision in the air.
That was the sound of the black flames on Fang Zhengzhi's body colliding with the green light in the air. It sounded like two parties were fighting each other.
Of course, the green light had an obvious advantage. After all, Fang Zhengzhi was fighting against five people at the same time. Hence, they could not compare in terms of quantity.
Ping Yang clenched her fists tightly.
While she was protecting Lin Mubai, she could naturally feel the powerful pressure around her. This pressure even made it difficult for her to breathe.
"One against five! Can such a shameless guy win? " It was impossible for Ping Yang to not be worried. However, she did not move because Fang Zhengzhi's gaze told her that there would be no problem. At least, there would not be any problem for the time being.
However …
After this gaze, the black flames that were clashing with the green light suddenly extinguished. It was as if they had been extinguished. They disappeared completely.
Just as the black flames disappeared, the aquamarine radiance pounced on Fang Zhengzhi and swallowed him whole.
This happened in an instant. It was too fast. Not only did Ping Yang not react, even Cang Yue and the five women could not react in time.
"Why is he so weak all of a sudden?" Cang Yue could not understand. She did not like to boast about others. However, after fighting with Fang Zhengzhi, she knew that Fang Zhengzhi was not weak at all. On the contrary, he was very strong. He was so strong that it was scary.
"What's going on?"
"Could it be that his Origin Energy has been depleted?"
"That shouldn't be the case. Based on what I felt just now … there shouldn't be any problem within the time it takes for an incense to burn."
The five women were also confused. After all, they were fighting with Fang Zhengzhi and they were not naive.
"Buzz!"
Just as Cang Yue, the five women, and Ping Yang were shocked, the green light that had swallowed Fang Zhengzhi dissipated.
Not only did the jade-green light dissipate, the green light on Fang Zhengzhi's black armor also disappeared in an instant.
Even the cracks on the black armor melted like snow.
"The five elements reinforce and subdue each other. Everything in the world also has the same logic. Sometimes, it's not that you're not strong enough, it's just that your Dao has been subdued by my Dao. You're all smart people, you should be able to understand what I'm saying. Stop struggling and give up, because your attacks are completely useless against me!"
