"Buzz!" A violent aura spread in all directions and the two gigantic black wings were fully extended. Then, Fang Zhengzhi charged into the sky with the Demon Lord in his hand.
This scene shocked the Demon soldiers below. The power exuded from the gigantic black wings was like a mountain pressing on their bodies.
Then, they witnessed a shocking scene.
Fang Zhengzhi raised the broken sword in his hand at this moment. A silver light flowed on the broken sword like the moon. Then, a ray of silver light descended.
"Roar!" The roar of the dragon shook the sky.
It was a gigantic silver dragon with extremely clear scales. It was much thicker than the silver dragon in the sky above the Demonic Hall. Moreover, there were two gigantic black wings on the back of the silver dragon.
"Rumble!" The silver dragon descended.
It landed in the Blood Shadow City and dashed towards the city gate at a shocking speed. It was like a silver radiance skimming across the sea.
Then, the entire Blood Shadow City shook. It was as though the Blood Shadow City had sunk by one centimeter and all the stone houses started shaking.
Kacha! A bottomless crack appeared. It was as flat as a sword and extended along the path of the silver radiance. Moments later, it extended to the city gate of the Blood Shadow City.
When the crack reached the gate of the Blood Shadow City, the huge city gate, which was made of black stone, split into two and collapsed.
"Meng Tian, you!!!" The Cloud Emperor looked at the huge crack below him. While he gasped, he was also filled with anger.
"Sorry, I was a little excited after wearing the Black-Golden Wings." Fang Zhengzhi smiled. Then, he threw the broken sword in his hand and flew towards the direction of the city gate.
Meanwhile, countless Demon soldiers stood rooted to the ground. They looked at Fang Zhengzhi and the Demon Lord who were flying towards the city gate and then at the bottomless crack in front of them.
If one had to use a sentence to describe the current mood of the Demon soldiers, then this sentence would definitely be …
"Mother, I want to go home!"
"…"
A hundred years ago, Sagely Battle God Meng Tian chased after the Demon Lord to the Blood Shadow City alone and killed Demon Lord Si Kong with one strike of his sword.
But today …
The guards at the entrance of the Blood Shadow City seemed to feel like history was repeating itself.
Especially when they saw Fang Zhengzhi and the Demon Lord flying towards them, as well as the black face cloth with the word "God" written on it, they felt as though they had experienced the battle that happened a hundred years ago.
"Meng Tian?! Sagely Battle God Meng Tian! "
"He's a god … a true god of war!"
"…"
The mission of the Demon soldiers told them that they had to persevere. However, how could they persevere when "Meng Tian" appeared in front of them?
The difference in strength was too great, so great that there was no possibility of resistance.
…
Fang Zhengzhi did not really care about what the Demon soldiers were thinking because he felt like he had become a "birdman".
When the Black-Gold Wings fused with his body, his physical strength rose sharply. It was very clear. It was as if his body had suddenly become stronger, so strong that he could compete with the Demon Clan. In other words, it felt as if he suddenly had the blood of the Demon Clan in his body.
The Black-Gold Wings, was this the treasure of the Demon Lord?
Fang Zhengzhi had been searching for treasures all these years. However, the treasures that he could find were basically antiques or taels of silver.
The truly valuable treasures …
Actually, there were not many.
The Traceless Sword was a good treasure, followed by The Vast World and some other miscellaneous treasures such as the Hypnotic Eye and the Near-Life Gate.
Furthermore, he had lost the Near-Life Gate. During the battle at the Heaven Dao Pavilion, it was nowhere to be found.
Of course, there were also the nine three-legged black cauldrons that he got from the Nine Pinnacles Mountain and the few Five-colored Mysterious Flowers that he snatched from the Ling Yun Tower. Lastly, there were 26 Heaven Dao Sage Tablets. He originally had 23 tablets but he found three more in Yun Qingwu's pendant.
Were there many?
Really not many!
At least, that was what Fang Zhengzhi thought. Anyway, to him, there were not many treasures that he could count. He could definitely store hundreds or thousands of treasures.
Wait a minute!
Black-Gold Wings, Bloodline Symbiosis …
Fang Zhengzhi narrowed his eyes as he suddenly thought of a few treasures that he had seen before. For example, Ping Yang's Blazing Qilin Spear and Emperor Lin Mubai's Green Dragon Eye.
Bloodline!
There seemed to be a drop of golden blood on the tip of the Blazing Qilin Spear!
There was also the aura of Emperor Lin Mubai's Green Dragon Eye when he used it. The Green Dragon Eye contained the real "dragon blood".
Furthermore, there was also a drop of blood on Fang Zhengzhi's Traceless Sword. It was a drop of devilish purple blood.
Treasures, bloodline?!
For some reason, Fang Zhengzhi felt that there might be some secrets that he did not know about. After all, it could not be a coincidence that so many treasures were linked together.
"Seems like there are still many unknown secrets in this world!" Fang Zhengzhi had a bold thought. The bloodline on these treasures might be related to the war between Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang and the Monster Race thousands of years ago. If he could unravel the secrets of these treasures, it would be equivalent to unraveling the true veil of that war.
Therefore, in order to unravel the "veil", Fang Zhengzhi decided to sacrifice himself to collect more treasures and "study" all the treasures that were related to the bloodline.
Of course, it was not the right time now. After all, he could clearly see that Shan Yu and a few Settlement Chiefs of the Southern Region were surrounded by thousands of Demon soldiers not far away from the Blood Shadow City.
However, this was clearly not a problem …
After becoming a "birdman", why would he be afraid of not being able to break through the encirclement?
"Those who block my way shall die!" Fang Zhengzhi rarely said such serious words. However, he felt that since he was Meng Tian now, he had to do some things as Meng Tian.
At least, he had to be slightly more domineering.
However, the awkward thing was that after Fang Zhengzhi shouted out what he thought was domineering, for some reason, it turned into a loud and clear cry.
"Yo!!!"
"…"
"It's Meng Tian, Sagely Battle God Meng Tian!"
"Sir Demon Lord!"
"They are here!"
The Demon soldiers' expressions changed completely when they saw Fang Zhengzhi and the Demon Lord. They did not know what to do.
That was because they knew that the "Meng Tian" outside the Blood Shadow City was fake after they saw the signal from the Demonic Hall.
Because they knew that it was fake …
They dared to attack.
However, now that the real "Meng Tian" had appeared and was above them with the Demon Lord in one hand, how could they not be shocked and fearful?
"Senior!" Shan Yu saw Fang Zhengzhi flying over when the city gate was slashed open. However, she was stunned when she saw the Demon Lord in Fang Zhengzhi's hand. "Senior Meng Tian really did … did it?!"
"Queen of the Southern Region, did you have fun?" Fang Zhengzhi looked at Shan Yu with a smile on his face after he landed.
"Fun?" Shan Yu was taken aback. She recalled everything that had happened just now. She really couldn't relate all of this to the word "play".
When the surrounding Demon soldiers saw Fang Zhengzhi landing, they instinctively took a step back. However, they quickly tightened their grip on their spears.
"Sir Demon Lord!"
"Meng Tian, let go of Sir Demon Lord!"
"Attack, save Sir Demon Lord!"
"Scram!" Emperor Yun's voice interrupted the screams of the surrounding Demon soldiers. His lips trembled slightly but he clenched his teeth and said, "I know you are brave, but … don't make unnecessary sacrifices. Go back and rebuild the Blood Shadow City. The future of the Demon Race is in your hands!"
"Sir Demon Lord …"
"We …"
"…"
The Demon soldiers trembled when they heard this. Some of them even had tears in their eyes.
On the other hand, Shan Yu and the Settlement Chiefs of the Southern Region froze. They looked at the Demon Lord and then at Fang Zhengzhi, not understanding what was going on.
However, Fang Zhengzhi had no intention to explain.
"Erm … Queen of the Southern Region, let me ask you, are there any treasures in the Southern Region? Hmm … I mean, treasures similar to the Black-Golden Wings on me, do you … understand what I mean? "Fang Zhengzhi pointed at the gigantic black wings on his back as he spoke.
"Treasures … treasures similar to the Black-Golden Wings?!" Shan Yu's expression froze again. She did not know how to answer as she looked at the gigantic black wings on Fang Zhengzhi's back.
Should she say yes?
However, there were indeed no flying treasures similar to the Black-Golden Wings in the Southern Region. However, if she said there were none … Shan Yu felt that it was inappropriate.
Moreover, most importantly …
Why did Senior suddenly become so interested in "treasures" after coming out of the Blood Shadow City? Shan Yu couldn't understand what was going on.
"No? No way? The Southern Region is so huge, how could there not be any decent treasures? "Fang Zhengzhi was slightly disappointed when he saw that Shan Yu did not reply for a long time.
"This … yes, there are many treasures in the Southern Region!" Shan Yu clenched her teeth and said after seeing Fang Zhengzhi's disappointed expression.
"Really? What is it?! "Fang Zhengzhi became excited when he heard that.
"Gold mine, the Southern Region is rich in gold mines …"
"Gold mine?! Isn't the gold mine my … "Fang Zhengzhi interrupted Shan Yu's sentence. However, halfway through his sentence, he suddenly realized something and said," Hmm … What I meant was, how could I like something as common as a gold mine? "
"Common? Hmm, to Senior, gold mines are common, but … he likes them very much. I forgot to mention just now, ten of the gold mines in the Southern Region belong to him. However, they are now occupied by the Demon Race. If he knew about this, he would probably … "
"Demon Lord, did you hear that? Hurry up and order the Demon soldiers to return the gold mines to the Southern Region! Your actions are bandits, do you know that? Bandits! "Fang Zhengzhi said to the Demon Lord before Shan Yu could finish her sentence.
"…"
"…"
The Demon Lord blinked and looked at Shan Yu before looking at "Meng Tian" who was covered with a black cloth. A drop of cold sweat dripped down his forehead and said, "Isn't it a common … common item?"
"Common item?! Who said it was common item? How can a valuable treasure like the gold mine be called a common item? Let me ask you, do you want to live?! "
"…"
There was a feeling of suffocation that made one tired.
That was how Emperor Yun felt. He was truly mentally exhausted. He wanted to die just like that. However, he was somewhat unwilling to do so.
That was because, just like what Fang Zhengzhi had said, he had already endured till now. If he was killed again, what was the point of enduring?
"Pass my order, the Demon soldiers are to retreat from the gold mines in the Southern Region!"
"Roger!" The Demon soldiers responded immediately.
When Fang Zhengzhi heard this, he blinked his eyes because he could feel Shan Yu looking at him expectantly.
The Queen of the Southern Region, Shan Yu …
Without the Southern Region, how could she still be the Queen of the Southern Region?
Fang Zhengzhi understood what Shan Yu meant. Shan Yu wanted him to make use of the Demon Lord to ask the Demon soldiers to retreat from the Southern Region.
However, were leaving the gold mines and the Southern Region the same thing?
Fang Zhengzhi was not sure.
He did not know if the Demon Race would really listen to him and retreat from the Southern Region after he forced the Demon Lord to give this order. However, he was sure that even if the Demon Race really retreated from the Southern Region, the Southern Region would not be the same as before.
To put it bluntly, even if the Demon Race retreated on the surface, the Southern Region would still be in danger. It would be like a piece of meat in the Demon Race's mouth without any protection.
There was a similar record during the Three Kingdoms Period in his previous life. It was called "The Death of Yang Xiu".
The gist of the story was that during a battle, Cao Cao issued a command at night, "Chicken ribs". Yang Xiu, the strategist, understood the meaning behind the command, "It's tasteless to eat, but a pity to throw away". He concluded that Cao Cao would withdraw his troops in the near future, so he packed up in advance to avoid panic.
And now, the Southern Region …
In fact, it was of little value.
If Fang Zhengzhi really forced the Demon Lord to retreat from the Southern Region, Shan Yu would still be guarding the Southern Region. The Southern Region would not be able to defend the territory of the Southern Region with its current military strength. After all, it would still be a piece of meat in the Demon Race's mouth.
"Let's go." Fang Zhengzhi ignored Shan Yu's look of anticipation.
"Senior … Senior! The Southern Region is my hometown. It's the place where I was born and raised. My father is still there. His corpse has yet to be buried. Senior, please … "Shan Yu's body went limp and she bent her knees slightly. It was obvious that she was going to kneel down.
"Have you heard of selling your body to bury your father?" Fang Zhengzhi stretched out his hand and stopped Shan Yu from kneeling.
Of course, as he stopped Shan Yu from kneeling, he scanned her face and body from head to toe.
