Fang Zhengzhi was also laughing even more confidently and recklessly. He was mocking Lin Ji from the bottom of his heart and looked at her as though she was a fool.
"What are you laughing at?" Lin Ji felt a chill down her spine and the smile on her face slowly disappeared. She looked extremely confused.
"Indeed, I will not kill you, but …"
"But what?"
"Even if I don't kill you, it doesn't mean that others won't kill you, for example … Shan Yu?" As Fang Zhengzhi spoke, he looked outside the cave. "Queen of the Southern Region, come in."
"Senior, why did you call for me?" Shan Yu's voice was heard outside the cave. Then, she appeared at the entrance of the cave instantly.
Evidently, Shan Yu did not go far, or rather, she had been at the entrance of the cave the entire time. After all, no one would really let the person who killed her father escape.
"Do you want to take revenge?" Fang Zhengzhi pointed at Lin Ji.
"Meng Tian, do you think you can force me to give in with this method? Impossible, if you really let her kill me, you will never find out where the Source of God is! " Lin Ji's expression changed but she quickly regained her composure. However, there was a ferocious look in her eyes.
"Kill her and take revenge for your father. Coincidentally, the tomb of the former Queen of the Southern Region is here, let's use Lin Ji's head as a sacrifice." Fang Zhengzhi said calmly.
"Senior … But, she …" Shan Yu looked at Fang Zhengzhi, then at Lin Ji and was stunned.
This did not mean that she did not want to take revenge. However, as the Queen of the Southern Region, Shan Yu knew the importance of the situation better than anyone else. If she could disregard the overall situation, she would have killed Lin Ji when Fang Zhengzhi sneaked into the Blood Shadow City. However, she did not do that.
That was because she knew very well that Lin Ji was not captured by her. Most importantly, Lin Ji had a lot of value to her.
"Don't you want to take revenge?" Fang Zhengzhi asked again when he saw Shan Yu's hesitation.
"Yes, I really want to take revenge. Ever since Lin Ji killed my father, there has not been a day that I did not want to kill her with my own hands!" Shan Yu's eyes were filled with an indescribable hatred towards the end of her sentence. She clenched her fists so tightly that they turned white.
"Then what are you waiting for?"
"But …"
"She is no longer of any value to me," said Fang Zhengzhi, who understood Shan Yu's concerns.
"Thank you, Senior!" Shan Yu leaned forward and was about to kneel on the ground when she heard this.
However, Shan Yu did not kneel down. That was because Fang Zhengzhi had already placed one of his hands on hers, supporting her body with all his might.
Meanwhile, the three Settlement Chiefs of the Southern Region walked into the cave with the Demon Lord. The three of them looked at Shan Yu, then at Fang Zhengzhi. After looking at each other, they knelt down.
"Your Majesty, your soul in heaven can finally rest in peace!"
"Senior, on behalf of the people of the Southern Region, the three of us thank you on our knees …"
"To be able to kill this demoness with my own hands, the wishes of the millions of people of the Southern Domain can finally be fulfilled!"
The three Settlement Chiefs of the Southern Region knelt down very quickly. Without waiting for Fang Zhengzhi to help them up, they all knelt on the ground and their eyes were filled with tears.
As the saying went, 'Men do not shed tears easily unless they are deeply hurt'. The men of the Southern Region only respected the brave. Today, the three Settlement Chiefs knelt down in front of Fang Zhengzhi, which meant that they were truly willing to submit to him.
Of course, what they did not know was that …
Fang Zhengzhi had no intention of helping them up. After all, he was not Little Nezha who could overturn rivers and seas. Without three heads and six arms, how could he support four people at the same time?
"Three Settlement Chiefs, please get up. Do you want to play with this demoness before killing her?" asked Fang Zhengzhi after helping Shan Yu up.
"…"
"…"
The three Settlement Chiefs of the Southern Region were once again stunned by his words.
They were not the only ones. Even Shan Yu and the Demon Emperor who had just entered the cave could not react in time. Their eyes were wide open and they were completely speechless.
"Demoness, don't you want to have some fun?" Fang Zhengzhi reminded the three Settlement Chiefs out of goodwill when he saw them in a daze.
"Senior, you must be joking. We only want to kill this demoness with our own hands and take revenge for our King!" The three Settlement Chiefs looked at each other and replied respectfully.
"How boring. Do whatever you want." When Fang Zhengzhi heard this, he shrugged his shoulders helplessly. Then, he stood at the entrance of the cave.
Lin Ji's face turned pale when she heard this because she could clearly feel the strong killing intent from Shan Yu and the rest.
"Meng Tian, you have to think carefully. If you don't take the opportunity to get the Source of God now, you will not have a chance when the real Monster and Demon Race arrive in a few months' time!" Lin Ji evidently did not want to die.
"Senior?" When Shan Yu heard Lin Ji's words, she bit her lips and looked at Fang Zhengzhi with a questioning gaze.
However, Fang Zhengzhi was as calm as usual and looked as though he did not hear what Lin Ji said.
Shan Yu's tightly clenched lips finally loosened. At the same time, two pitch-black daggers appeared in her hands.
"Meng Tian!!!" Lin Ji roared.
However, Shan Yu did not question Fang Zhengzhi this time. Instead, she charged towards Lin Ji and the two daggers gave off a red radiance that looked like flames.
"Shan Yu, don't you dare! If you kill me, humankind will not stand a chance … "
Clang!
Lin Ji did not finish her sentence as Shan Yu's daggers had pierced her body accurately on both sides of her chest.
However …
The daggers did not pierce into her chest.
That was because Lin Ji's body was covered with thick black scales. With Shan Yu's capabilities, she could not even hurt Lin Ji, let alone kill her.
"Hahaha … You want to kill me? What a joke … "
Slash!
Lin Ji's laughter finally stopped and her expression froze. That was because a dagger had been stabbed into her left chest.
Bright red blood flowed down the dagger and dripped onto the ground.
"You … Meng Tian, you …" Lin Ji was obviously unwilling to believe it. However, the truth was that there was a figure standing behind Shan Yu.
Fang Zhengzhi!
Of course, that was not the main point. The main point was that Fang Zhengzhi's leg was on top of Shan Yu's dagger!
Lin Ji looked down at the dagger that pierced her chest and then at Fang Zhengzhi who was standing behind Shan Yu. Her eyes were bloodshot from anger.
She was confident but at the same time, she was mocking Fang Zhengzhi for his lowly methods.
Trying to scare her with Shan Yu?
Was that possible?
Lin Ji definitely believed that Fang Zhengzhi was interested in the Source of God. That was why she was certain that Fang Zhengzhi would not let her die.
However, why?
"Pu Ci!" A light sound rang out in the cave again.
Meanwhile, the dagger in Shan Yu's right hand was kicked by Fang Zhengzhi and pierced deep into her chest through the black scales on Lin Ji's body.
Blood dripped onto the ground again.
"To kill a monster, the heart is not the fatal point. Only by destroying the Monster Pearl will the monster really die." Fang Zhengzhi said calmly and completely ignored Lin Ji's gaze.
"Yes, Senior!" When Shan Yu heard this, she bowed again and was about to express her gratitude. However, Fang Zhengzhi held onto her with one hand and pulled her behind his back.
"Meng Tian, do you really want to kill me?" Lin Ji stared into Fang Zhengzhi's eyes and tried to find out something from his eyes.
However, unfortunately, she could not find anything because Fang Zhengzhi's eyes were as calm as water.
"Of course, the strength of this demoness is indeed not bad. With your methods, it will be a little difficult to destroy her Yao Core. How about this, I will first seal her demonic energy and help you find the location of the Yao Core. That way, you can easily kill her." Fang Zhengzhi turned around and nodded at Shan Yu. It was as though he did not hear Lin Ji's question and completely ignored her.
"Meng Tian, I will kill you!" After hearing Fang Zhengzhi's words, Lin Ji could no longer hold it in. The scales on her body expanded rapidly and sharp spikes as sharp as knives appeared on her body. They collided with the chains on her body and made an ear-piercing sound.
Apart from that, there was an obvious change on Lin Ji's head. Her eyes turned dark green and something that looked like a horn grew on her head.
Swoosh! A forked tongue came out from Lin Ji's mouth.
"So it's a small snake?" Fang Zhengzhi quickly understood Lin Ji's true form when he saw the tongue in Lin Ji's mouth. However, this was no longer important.
That was because the only way to deal with a captive who wanted to retaliate was to slap her.
Therefore …
Fang Zhengzhi slapped her.
From top to bottom, he slapped Lin Ji's head which had a horn growing out of it.
Bam! A muffled sound was heard.
The ground shook and cracks appeared on Lin Ji's body. The cracks extended towards the entrance of the cave like a gigantic spider web.
Meanwhile, Lin Ji's body stiffened and her ferocious expression froze completely. It felt as though her body and soul had been separated.
"Fight? What are you going to fight with? "Fang Zhengzhi looked at Lin Ji with disdain and his eyes were filled with disdain.
As Fang Zhengzhi said that, Lin Ji's body fell to the ground. Her face and body were drenched in perspiration.
This scene was undoubtedly shocking to the Demon Lord because it was the first time he saw Fang Zhengzhi using such a move.
"One slap?! Just one slap? " The Demon Lord clearly remembered Fang Zhengzhi's two strikes in the Blood Shadow City. He knew that "Meng Tian" was very powerful.
However, he did not expect "Meng Tian" to be so powerful.
"The Monster Pearl is in my abdomen." Fang Zhengzhi moved behind Shan Yu without taking another look at Lin Ji.
At the same time, the scales on Lin Ji's body quickly disappeared and the horn on her head disappeared into her body. She returned to her original appearance.
"Meng Tian, you … are ruthless. However, if you kill me, you will lose your last chance. Humankind … is destined to disappear from this world!" Lin Ji panted heavily and her body trembled. She stared at Fang Zhengzhi and looked extremely ferocious.
"Do it." Fang Zhengzhi's tone was emotionless.
"Roger!" Shan Yu nodded. Without hesitation, she pulled out her two daggers and stabbed them into Lin Ji's abdomen at lightning speed.
"Ah … Meng Tian, I will not let you off even if I die!" Lin Ji screamed and blood flowed out from the corner of her mouth.
Meanwhile, Fang Zhengzhi turned his head to the side casually.
He did not like such a bloody scene. However, he was speechless at Lin Ji's words. Will not let her off even if she dies? How could she not let her off even if she dies?
That was a contradiction.
Moreover, Fang Zhengzhi felt a little helpless.
Did all the people who were about to die like to say this sentence? It was too melodramatic. Could she change it to something new? For example, "I will continue to hate you even if I die"?
It seemed like …
It was a little contradictory.
Fang Zhengzhi shook his head. He did not care too much about such details. After all, everyone liked to say it and he could not possibly seal Lin Ji's mouth.
Kacha! At this moment, a crisp sound was heard. Then, a crystal-clear Monster Pearl rolled out from Lin Ji's abdomen.
In an instant, a huge aura enveloped the cave. Circles of aura spread out in all directions like water ripples.
"Is this the Monster Pearl?!"
"The Monster Pearl of the Godly State … Such a powerful aura!"
The three Settlement Chiefs widened their eyes when they saw the crystal-clear Monster Pearl on the ground. After all, it was their first time seeing a Monster Pearl. Moreover, it was the Monster Pearl of a Godly State expert.
"No, don't destroy my Monster Pearl, I don't want to die … I … I will tell you where the Source of God is, Meng Tian, I … I will tell you!" When Lin Ji saw the Monster Pearl rolling out, her expression became extremely dispirited and she fell to the ground as though she had lost all her energy.
"Tell me, where is the Source of God!" When Shan Yu heard this, she stopped stabbing her dagger. Evidently, she knew the importance of this information to Fang Zhengzhi.
"Alright, I will tell you … I will tell you … but you must promise not to kill me, I don't want to die, really … I don't want to die …" Lin Ji nodded and placed her hands on the ground. Her entire body was drenched in sweat and her eyes were filled with pleading.
