After the auction of the sword embryo, the news of Fang Xing declaring that he would go to the depths of the Mysterious Domain to challenge Huangfu Daozi in seven days had already spread. Because of his fearless style and his strength that allowed him to look down on everyone else, all the cultivators who heard the news believed his words. After all, this little bastard even dared to attack the Sword Tomb, so what else wouldn't he dare to do?
Because of this, after the news spread to the depths of the Mysterious Domain, even the troops of the Huangfu Clan made preparations to meet the enemy. They stationed people day and night at the Divine Bridge that led to the depths of the Mysterious Domain. They were prepared to capture and kill this little bastard the moment he appeared.
Moreover, because they believed that Fang Xing would go to the depths of the Mysterious Domain to challenge Huangfu Daozi, the Huangfu Clan didn't even send a large number of troops to the outside world to look for him. Instead, they stationed themselves in the depths of the Mysterious Domain. Each and every one of them acted as if they were facing a great enemy and didn't dare to slack off in the slightest.
However …
One day passed, and the little bastard still didn't appear.
Two days passed, and the little bastard still didn't appear.
Three days passed, and the cultivators thought that the little bastard was injured and must be recuperating, so he probably wouldn't come so early!
Seven days passed, and there was still no trace of the little bastard. At this time, many cultivators thought that the little bastard's injuries were too heavy, and in order to recuperate, he was delayed. Therefore, they still had some expectations in their hearts.
However, on the tenth day, when Fang Xing still hadn't appeared, the cultivators and the Huangfu Clan's Daozi began to frantically search for Fang Xing.
Unfortunately, a large number of people searched countless times, but they still couldn't find a trace of Fang Xing. Not only him, but even his arrogant Great Golden Crow had also disappeared. This finally made the cultivators vaguely realize a problem …
Motherf * cker, this little bastard actually slipped away!
His words were so loud, and his actions were so crazy, but in the end, under everyone's expectations …
He actually slipped away!
Was there anything more shameless than this?
All the cultivators had the urge to curse out loud. Each and every one of them was a smart person, but they were actually fooled by a little bastard!
It wasn't that no one had imagined beforehand that Fang Xing would slip away, but in reality, everyone that'd seen Fang Xing had been deceived by him. His cold and arrogant appearance of challenging Huangfu Daozi and his heroic appearance of saying that he'd enter the depths of the Profound Region to kill Huangfu Daozi in seven days had caused all the cultivators to feel that he was extremely serious. Thus, news of this spread to a hundred, a hundred spread to a thousand, and it caused all the cultivators to surge towards the area of the divine bridge and wait for his appearance day and night.
The waiting of the cultivators affected the Huangfu Clan's judgment to a certain extent.
Even the people of the Huangfu Clan felt that a young prodigy who could annihilate four of the Huangfu Clan's eight demon tribes, including an expert like Lei Jiu, could truly be considered a great enemy of Huangfu Daozi. This kind of secret speculation and shock caused everyone in the Huangfu Clan to treat Fang Xing as a great enemy in the dark, and they even raised his status more and more …
Then, in this atmosphere, Fang Xing slipped away.
"He actually slipped away! He actually slipped away! How could he slip away?!"
Countless cultivators in the area of the divine bridge that hoped to watch this battle let out a torrent of curses.
"Slipping away … is normal, right? How many people would dare to fight Huangfu Daozi?"
Some cultivators spoke hesitantly as they felt that it was normal for Fang Xing to slip away.
"But he's Fang Xing! He's a little devil! He's done so many things that others don't even dare to think about! Motherfucker! Even I faintly admire him. At this critical moment, even if he came to fight Huangfu Daozi, even if he died at Huangfu Daozi's hands, I would still admire him for being a man. But why did he slip away? This isn't something someone like him would do … "
Countless cultivators hated iron for not becoming steel, and they cursed furiously in their hearts.
There were also cultivators that sighed. "Living is better than dying, right? Besides, isn't that little devil famous for being slippery? "
"But … no matter what, he shouldn't have escaped … he didn't look like he was going to escape …"
While the cultivators were guessing, there were naturally people that thought deeply and sneered. "If that little devil didn't escape, then he'd really be letting down his title as a little devil. Think about it, he killed the Huangfu Clan's emissary, annihilated four of the Huangfu Clan's eight demon groups, and even robbed the Huangfu Clan's sword tomb in exchange for countless treasures. It can be said that thirty percent of Nan Zhan's fortune is in his hands. In this kind of situation, he still managed to trick everyone and safely leave the Xuan Region. Isn't this a skill?"
"But … he didn't show up for the arranged battle. This little devil's reputation must have been ruined, right?"
"Hmph, reputation? When did he ever have a good reputation? Betraying the sect, humiliating the Ice Sound Palace's disciple, which of these didn't incur the wrath of the heavens and the resentment of the people? Moreover, even if he didn't show up for the arranged battle, he killed the Huangfu Clan's emissary, robbed the treasures, and left safely. With all these things in front of them, who would dare to look down on him? In the vast Nan Zhan, there are countless prodigies. Who would dare to do such a thing? "
When the cultivators heard this, they were all speechless.
No one was a fool. After some thought, no one felt that there was a problem with the little devil's escape.
Just like the first thought that came to everyone's mind, there was a problem if he didn't escape!
The news of Fang Xing's arranged battle with Huangfu Daozi and escaping from the Xuan Region quickly spread throughout the Nan Zhan.
The little devil, Fang Xing, was already quite famous. Firstly, he betrayed the Blue Cloud Sect, and secondly, he made Ye Guyin, who was known as the number one prodigy below the Spiritual Foundation of the Ice Sound Palace, suffer a great loss. Among the cultivators of the younger generation, he had some status, but it was still difficult for him to enter the eyes of the experts. However, after the news of what happened in the Xuan Region spread, it immediately spread throughout the Nan Zhan Region, causing people to look at him in a new light.
He actually exterminated four of the eight demon lineages of the Huangfu Clan, and even led people to attack the Sword Catacomb?
This little devil was really audacious!
One had to know what kind of existence the Huangfu Clan was. It was a colossus that stood above the various clans and sects of the Nan Zhan. It was an existence that ruled over the Nan Zhan. In the entire Nan Zhan, other than the Spiritual Mountain Temple that usually didn't care about worldly affairs, there was no other power that could contend against the Huangfu Clan. Many people believed that as long as the Huangfu Clan was willing, they could proclaim themselves as the king of the Nan Zhan and make all the cultivators bow down to them.
And who did that little devil think he was? He had already betrayed his sect, and he was a lonely ghost that didn't belong to the heavens or the earth. Yet, he dared to slap the Huangfu Clan's face in such a blatant manner. Even the words' courting death 'couldn't describe his audacity.
Such a guy, after taking advantage of the situation, actually used such a strange method to attract the attention of the Huangfu Clan and then escaped from the Mysterious Domain. This caused all the cultivators present to be shocked, but they also felt a hidden sense of admiration.
Although the method he used was a little shameless, to be able to escape, he was really capable!
"That son of a bitch actually escaped? I was going to help him collect his corpse! "
Near the divine bridge, Li Ying was dumbfounded. After hearing this news countless times, he finally admitted that it might be the truth.
Han Ying, who was traveling with him, also had a strange expression on his face. "Didn't I say that if he escaped from the Huangfu Clan's pursuit, I would worship him as my elder?"
Li Ying's expression was strange. "You did say that, but I don't think that's what you meant, right? You clearly said that if he entered the Xuan Region and fought with Huangfu Shenji, if he could still escape from the Huangfu Clan's pursuit, you would worship him as your elder, right? At that time, I said that I thought the same as you, that it was impossible for him to escape from Huangfu Shenji's pursuit … "
He said a series of words, but Han Ying remained silent.
"He took advantage of me!"
After a long time, Han Ying let out a long sigh and smiled helplessly.
Li Ying was even more helpless. "Who told you to always be so short?"
"He actually escaped?"
In the Xuan Region, on a golden chariot, the green-clothed bandit, who had returned to her female clothes, was slightly stunned when she heard the news. After a long time, she smiled bitterly. "That bastard is really different from the geniuses I know …"
After muttering to herself, she smiled bitterly at Xu Lingyun, who was sitting beside her, and said, "Can you imagine? He actually escaped … "
Xu Lingyun's face also revealed a touch of gratification. She said softly, "Although it's a little unexpected, if you think about it carefully, this is the Junior Brother Fang!"
In the depths of the Mysterious Domain, there was a strange place filled with stone tablets. There was a black fog everywhere, causing this place to look like a paradise, but also like hell. In this hell, there were countless powerful demon spirits guarding every corner. On a stone platform in the deepest part of the stone tablets, there was a young man with a lotus mark on his forehead. He was sitting cross-legged and was in deep thought.
"Report …"
A voice came from the outside world. The black fog dispersed, revealing a passage. In the passage, a purple-armored warrior quickly walked out. This person was tall and sturdy, and he wore an iron mask on his face. It was impossible to tell his age and gender. He arrived in front of Huangfu Daozi, knelt down, and said in a deep voice, "Reporting to Daozi, I've already ordered people to search everywhere in the periphery of the Xuan Region. It can be confirmed that the little thief is no longer in the Xuan Region. However, previously, the people of my Eight Division Demon Clan set up layers of defense outside the Xuan Region, but they didn't find any traces of him. He should have used the Daozi challenge as a smokescreen to attract everyone's attention and create an opportunity for himself to escape!"
When the young man with the golden lotus between his eyebrows heard this, he was silent for a breath of time. Then, a mocking expression appeared on his face. "To think that I even made the preparations to go to the Divine Bridge and kill him when the seven days agreement arrives. But it turns out that he's still a useless coward. Report back to the clan and issue a decree to capture and kill him. This person is not a cause for concern, but the sword embryo must be recovered!"
"Yes …"
The purple-armored warrior replied in a low voice before turning around and leaving.
On the other hand, the young man with the golden lotus between his eyebrows remained silent. After a short while, he suddenly laughed coldly with a disdainful expression, yet there was a faint feeling of unwillingness within it. It was as if he'd punched the air, and it caused him to feel extremely uncomfortable …
