Yung Qingwu's plan was very simple. She wanted to use Fang Zhengzhi, the "rat crossing the street", to stir up the Holy Region, which seemed calm on the surface but was surging in the dark.
That was because Yun Qingwu was very clear that although the Five Sects of the Holy Region each occupied a part of the Holy Region, there were too many conflicts of interest.
Fang Zhengzhi was here.
Naturally, he would stir up some trouble. However, these troubles were at most normal fights between the disciples of the Five Sects. At most, it would escalate to the level of an elder.
This kind of thing was rare in the Holy Region, but ultimately, it was just some conflicts and fights between people. Even if it was a little chaotic, there wouldn't be too much of a problem. After all, the Five Sects of the Holy Region were able to stand tall for hundreds and thousands of years without collapsing, so they more or less had a certain degree of tolerance.
To make the leaders of the Five Sects fight …
That was basically impossible!
However, once Fang Zhengzhi had the "black box", everything would be different. The collapse of the Heaven Book Pond in the Heaven Dao Pavilion and the destruction of the Nine Heavens would definitely spread throughout the Holy Region.
As such, Fang Zhengzhi, who was running around in the Holy Region with the black box and the Heaven Dao Sage Tablet, would naturally become the target of the Five Sects of the Holy Region.
At that time, any sect that took in or captured Fang Zhengzhi would definitely cause conflict. Because Fang Zhengzhi had the Heaven Dao Sage Tablet.
This was fundamental!
The Five Sects of the Holy Region would not fight over conflicts between people. However, once the Heaven Dao Sage Tablet was involved, and Fang Zhengzhi had taken out nine Heaven Dao Sage Tablets in the Heaven Dao Pavilion, even the leaders of the Five Sects could not stay out of it.
This was Yun Qingwu's initial plan.
Using Fang Zhengzhi as the "bait", she would stir up the waters of the Five Sects of the Holy Region. Then, she would add fuel to the fire and finally reap the benefits.
Of course, just as Yun Qingwu said, there was a small accident in this plan.
Yan Xiu's life was in danger.
Under such circumstances, Fang Zhengzhi made a decision that no one expected. He used his own life to exchange for Yan Xiu's survival.
As such, the fight between the Five Sects did not come to fruition.
However, Yun Qingwu was still Yun Qingwu. Even if the plan did not go as planned, Yun Qingwu still had a way to carry it out.
That was to enter the Great Swamp.
In the end, there wasn't much difference.
Fang Zhengzhi did not die. Not only did he not die, he even severely injured a few elders of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain. This gave Yun Qingwu another opportunity to break through.
That was to use the Nine Pinnacles Mountain as a breakthrough point to tear apart the alliance of the Five Sects of the Holy Region.
…
The sun was still shining brightly, but the wind was a little cold.
Perhaps, this coldness did not come entirely from the wind on the mountain. Some of it came from Fang Zhengzhi's murderous aura and intense coldness.
As for Yun Qingwu …
Fang Zhengzhi's feelings had always been complicated.
If Yun Qingwu was not the Young Lord of the Demon Race and the Young Empress of the Monster Race, everything would not have come to this. However, no matter what, it was a fact that could not be changed.
Since they were in different camps, their standpoints would naturally be different.
Boom! A loud sound rang out from the top of the divine tree. A demonic purple light flickered in the air. There were three of them, and each one was as bright as the sun.
The ten elders of the devil race widened their eyes in shock.
They knew that Fang Zhengzhi was very powerful. However, they could not accept the fact that he was so powerful. After all, Fang Zhengzhi was only eighteen years old.
However, regardless of whether they accepted it or not, Fang Zhengzhi's power had completely suppressed them.
The intense murderous aura pressed down on their heads. The three demonic purple lights sliced three holes in the middle of their bodies at an extremely fast speed.
Kacha! One of the elders of the demon race's arm was severed by the demonic purple light. Blood splattered all over the white flowers on the Tree of God.
Beside him, the other two beams of demonic purple light had already blasted away the other two elders of the Devil Race. There were deep bloody wounds on the chests of the two elders, revealing their bones.
One of the elders of the demon race fell to the ground. His golden demon eye split open from the middle and a crystal-like liquid flowed out of it.
One strike!
Two were injured and one was dead!
Even Monster Emperor Baizhi could not do such a sharp strike. That was because Fang Zhengzhi had attacked ten elders of the demon race at the same time.
Of course, Fang Zhengzhi's body was also stained with blood.
One of the elders of the demon race took the opportunity when Fang Zhengzhi charged towards him to go behind him and slapped Fang Zhengzhi's back.
Meanwhile, the other elder of the demon race used a strange posture and a unique weapon that looked like a crescent hook to hook a wound on Fang Zhengzhi's right leg.
However, what shocked the elders of the demon race was that Fang Zhengzhi did not seem to be bothered by it. In fact, he took the opportunity when the elder of the demon race slapped him on the back to forcefully break through the defense of the ten elders of the demon race.
This happened very quickly.
It was so fast that the sages and the disciples of the sects could not see it clearly. However, they could roughly see the death of one of the elders of the demon race.
"So … so powerful!"
Be it the sages, the sect disciples, or even the Monster Kings, all of them widened their eyes as the same thought appeared in their minds.
Facing the ten elders of the demon race …
Breaking through with one strike!
What a terrifying thing this was!
However, that was not the end. After Fang Zhengzhi crashed into the group of elders of the demon race, he struck with his Traceless Sword again.
Hum! The crisp sound of the sword was heard again.
Like a gigantic purple dragon that soared into the sky, it dived down with an unrivaled and powerful murderous intent. The purple sword radiance landed the moment it lit up.
It did not even take a blink of an eye from the beginning to the end.
It was an extremely fast strike!
The target of this attack was naturally Yun Qingwu. Fang Zhengzhi stabbed his sword towards Yun Qingwu's heart during the gap between the elders of the demon race's movements.
"Looks like … you really want me to die this time …" Yun Qingwu's body trembled slightly as she looked at the purple sword radiance that was coming towards her.
She did not retreat, nor did she dodge or defend.
Yun Qingwu looked at the purple sword radiance in silence. She looked as though she was struggling to find a way out of this predicament.
Slash! The sword radiance pierced into her body and blood splattered.
However, it was not Yun Qingwu who was stabbed. Instead, it was an elder of the demon race who appeared out of nowhere and used his body to block in front of Yun Qingwu.
One could see that the elder of the demon race was in pain, but there was also joy and joy in his pain.
"Fang Zhengzhi, you are very powerful, but you can't kill Young Lord!" The elder of the demon race spat out a mouthful of blood as he held tightly onto the Traceless Sword that was pierced in the center of his chest.
His speed was not as fast as Fang Zhengzhi's. Similarly, he could not block Fang Zhengzhi's extremely fast strike. However, he could grab the sword with his hands.
That was because after the sword pierced his body, no matter how fast it was, it could not move anymore. Therefore, he could naturally grab Fang Zhengzhi's sword with his hands.
Fang Zhengzhi's hand stopped.
That was because the elder of the demon race was grabbing tightly onto the Traceless Sword. His hands were like iron shackles that held onto the Traceless Sword tightly.
It was a form of willpower, the willpower to protect.
Fang Zhengzhi saw a sense of joy in the eyes of the elder of the demon race. It was the kind of joy that came from protecting someone important to him.
Moreover, he could hear the sharp sound of the wind on both sides of his ears. It was very fast and very close, causing his ears to hurt.
"Ah!!!" Fang Zhengzhi let out a long roar and stomped on the chest of the elder of the demon race. Blood splattered again as the Traceless Sword severed the two hands of the elder of the demon race.
"Boom!"
At the spot where Fang Zhengzhi was standing earlier on, four to five beams of radiance rose up. Some of them came from the bottom up, while others came from the bottom down.
The four to five beams of radiance collided and created a huge airwave.
This was naturally the attack that the other elders of the demon race launched when Fang Zhengzhi stopped moving. Every attack was so sharp that it made one's heart shudder.
Fang Zhengzhi dodged the attacks.
That was because when he stomped on the chest of the elder of the demon race, he used the momentum to fly two steps back.
Plop! The elder of the demon race who used his body to block the attack fell to the ground.
However, the other elders of the Demon Race had gathered together and protected Yun Qingwu behind them. Every elder of the Demon Race had a determined look on their faces as though they were not afraid of death.
As the elders of the demon race who were second only to the Demon Emperor …
In terms of experience, none of them were inferior to Yun Qingwu. In fact, Yun Qingwu had to bow to them respectfully when she saw them.
However, none of them retreated. Even the two elders of the demon race who fell to the ground did not show any signs of regret or fear.
That was because they were protecting Yun Qingwu.
She was the hope of the demon race in the future and also the only hope for the Monster Race and Demon Race to join forces again.
In that case, status was no longer important.
They could die.
However, Yun Qingwu could not.
"Fang Zhengzhi, you can't kill Young Lord. Even if you kill ten of us, you can't kill Young Lord!" The elders of the demon race spoke in unison and their expressions were firm.
Roar!
Roar …
"Fang Zhengzhi, if you want to kill Young Lord, you have to kill us first!"
As the voices of the elders of the demon race were heard, the voices of the dozens of Monster Kings could be heard. There were beastly roars and human voices.
Then, the dozens of Monster Kings moved.
They charged towards Fang Zhengzhi like a flood. Every Monster King was extremely fast and had the same determination in their eyes.
This was a very sudden scene.
It was so sudden that the sages and the disciples of the sects could not react in time.
That was because even when Monster Emperor Baizhi was surrounded by Mu Qingfeng, Fang Zhengzhi and the rest, the Monster Kings did not react in this manner.
However, when Yun Qingwu was in danger, they all moved and charged towards Fang Zhengzhi without caring about the sages.
"Why did this happen?!"
"Don't tell me that Yun Qingwu is more important than Monster Emperor Baizhi to the Monster Kings?"
The sages and the disciples of the sects could not understand.
However, they soon realized that this had nothing to do with her importance. The most important thing was Yun Qingwu's current identity.
The powerful Monster Race was trapped in the Great Swamp by the humans and could not leave. They could only be accompanied by the mist in the Great Swamp.
Living like this day after day, year after year, what was the future of the Monster Race?
It was Yun Qingwu who changed everything.
Or rather, only Yun Qingwu could change everything.
She led the Monster Race out of the Great Swamp and rebuilt the strong alliance between the Monster Race and Demon Race. The repeated victories gave the Monster Race hope.
Therefore, how could they allow their hope to be destroyed?
"Fang Zhengzhi, do you understand now? It's not that I don't want to die under your sword, it's that your sword can't kill me at all! " Yun Qingwu's voice was heard behind the elders of the demon race. Although it sounded calm, it sounded like she was sighing from the bottom of her heart.
"Brat, don't just stand there, attack!"
"Kill Yun Qingwu, we will help you!"
Mo Shanshi and Yan Yin's voices were heard at this moment.
As soon as their voices rang out, a silvery-white streak of light descended at an extremely fast speed and landed in the middle of the 10 elders of the Demon Race.
It was Qian Yu!
Qian Yu did not say a word at all.
However, the two swords in her hands had already pierced the chest of an elder of the demon race who was standing in front of Yun Qingwu. The cold wind blew past and caused Qian Yu's silvery-white dress to flutter.
Fang Zhengzhi tightened his grip on the Traceless Sword.
He took a glance at the elders of the demon race in front of him, then at the Monster Kings who had already charged towards him, as well as Monster Emperor Baizhi who was charging towards him from above.
Everything was telling him that it was extremely difficult to kill Yun Qingwu.
However, so what?
Even though it seemed like he really couldn't kill them, he still had to try. Perhaps it was for the unconscious Yan Xiu, or for the severely injured Chi Guyan, or for the unconscious Ping Yang, or for the ordinary Wu Yuer who was still fighting with her life on the line.
There were many people beside him. Emperor Lin Mubai, Prince Xian Lin Yun, the dying Nangong Mu, Xing Hou Xing Yuanguo who was far away in Great Xia, and the determined future Xing Qingsui in the Stabilization Constabulary.
And …
The place where he grew up, the Northern Mountain Village!
There was his mother of this life and his simple and honest father.
Regardless of the reason.
