Beheaded!
The heads of the two disciples of the Meng Family and the Han Family were chopped off just like that. Although they were disciples of the branch family, they still had these two big surnames. However, this little devil had chopped off their heads so easily, as if he had killed two insignificant rogue cultivators. Such a scene made the cultivators present feel as if their heads had been smashed by someone. They felt a faint sense of stupefaction and endless cold air poured into their chests, as if they had fallen into an ice cave. They felt as if all their confidence had been sucked out. Even the roots of their tongues were trembling and they could not say a word.
"What are you doing? How can you kill people so casually …"
"If you really want to be fierce to save some face, then be fierce!"
In any case, Meng Qi and Han Jiashi were ready to fight. They had taken out the magic weapons given by the Ancestor, so they would definitely be able to take one or two strikes from Meng Qi. If Meng Qi had pretended to be unable to take them down, or driven them away after defeating them, it would have been fine. However, Meng Qi had actually attacked them directly and taken their heads without giving them any time to react. What the hell was that?
The cultivators of the Devil Province thousands of miles away originally wanted to take advantage of the chaos in the Divine Land to counterattack and take back some territory.
But after seeing this scene, some people immediately waved their hands, withdrew their forces, and hurriedly built a line of defense.
As for the cultivators of the Divine Land who occupied this group of mountains, they were all dumbfounded, looking as if they didn't know what was going on.
"Hey …"
Fang Xing called out to them, and the group of cultivators came to their senses. They hurriedly dismantled the big formation that had been set up, and prepared to retreat.
"Hey …"
Fang Xing called out to them again, and the group of cultivators came to their senses again. They abandoned the big formation and directly retreated.
In a row, the 17 mountains retreated completely, and there was not a single person from other sects.
All the cultivators of the Divine Land retreated to the other side of the Taiyin River. No matter whether they were secretly angry, frightened, or foreseeing a bloody storm in the future, Zhu Xiu, who kept silent, no one dared to touch the 17 mountains anymore. They could only obediently guard the other side of the Taiyin River like before. What was different from before was that the other side of the river had become the territory of robbers.
"My Senior Brother is so handsome …"
The handsome little monk shook his bald head and was full of energy. He picked up the array flags and began to insert them.
Chu Ci also looked at Fang Xing with blurred eyes. After a while, she smiled sweetly and cooperated with the handsome monk.
The donkey, on the other hand, shook its big head as if it had never seen anything before.
If it could speak, it would probably express that it had been this domineering ever since the man had ridden on it.
Seventeen mountain peaks in a row were all covered with array flags. The Divine Prefecture cultivators had also changed some of the array formations that they had set up earlier. They used the Pilgrimage Cauldron as the source of the array and incorporated it into their own territory. Now, the situation seemed a little ridiculous. The Divine Prefecture cultivators of the Zhenyuan Division had shrunk to one side of the Taiyin River and only occupied five mountain peaks. On the other side, the Devil Province cultivators were more powerful and occupied seventy to eighty mountain peaks. However, they had lost the geographical advantage and were desperately setting up a defensive line. They summoned the ancient clan masters behind them, afraid that the little devil would attack again.
In the middle were 17 mountains that didn't belong to the Demon Continent or the Divine Continent. They belonged to the Path of Tribulation.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang …"
A series of dull drumbeats rang out. They were the warning drums on the other side of the Taiyin River.
At least four hours had passed since Fang Xing had killed his way to the other side of the river. However, the General Red Embellishment didn't seem to notice. She slowly stood up and stood on the top of the cliff. She cupped her hands at Fang Xing from afar and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Fang, we've been waiting for you for a long time, but you haven't arrived yet. We've already discussed that if you don't come after the Three-Pass Drum, you'll be punished with three jars of strong wine. Now that the Three-Pass Drum has arrived, will you come?"
She still wants to invite him to drink wine?
When the surrounding Zhu Xiu heard this, they were all shocked and looked at the General Red Embellishment in astonishment.
That Little Devil was extremely selfish. He had occupied 17 mountains but refused to share any of them. He had even killed the members of the Meng Family and the Han Family, thus forming a deep feud. In the future, when the members of the Meng Family and the Han Family arrived, he would immediately be beheaded. Not only did the General Red Embellishment not care about that Little Devil's stinginess, but she had also invited him to the banquet. Was she not afraid that the Meng Family and the Han Family would vent their anger on her in the future?
Furthermore, the atmosphere was already so awkward. Perhaps this Little Devil wouldn't be willing to attend the banquet again.
However, the crowd hadn't expected that even though the General Red Embellishment had invited Fang Xing to the banquet as if nothing had happened, Fang Xing would also act as if nothing had happened. He smiled and agreed. "Well said, well said. Since I'm late, I'll drink two jars of wine as an apology …"
As he spoke, he actually put away the Dragon Patterned Ominous Saber. With his hands behind his back, he strolled slowly toward the Taiyin River.
"Fairy Wang Qiong and the white-robed Holy Monk, Madam Fang, please join the banquet!"
The General Red Embellishment spoke again with a chuckle. Her voice was like a spring breeze.
Upon hearing this, Wang Qiong, who had been standing on the back of the toad and holding the God Striking Bow in her hand, as well as Shinsyu and Chu Ci, who were busy setting up the array, were all stunned. The green donkey, who had been busy sending the array flags to various positions, neighed with dissatisfaction and had a strange look in its eyes.
Fang Xing laughed and said to the General Red Embellishment, "You invited so many people, but you didn't invite my disciple. It's angry!"
The General Red Embellishment was also somewhat speechless. However, she didn't ask what was going on. Instead, she added with a chuckle, "If that's the case, please join us!"
Only then did the green donkey become excited. It wagged its tail excitedly, looking very excited.
As for Fang Xing, he strolled slowly and looked at the surrounding mountains. When he arrived at the bank of the Taiyin River, the General Red Embellishment suddenly smiled and looked at Fang Xing. She said, "Daoist Fang, the Abyss Suppressing Division has only seized five mountain peaks, which is really shameful. It's not even as much as what you've seized in one day. I, Hong Ying, feel really ashamed, so I'll ask you shamelessly. Can you give me one of these mountain peaks?"
Uh …
Upon hearing this, the surrounding cultivators were even more confused. Some of them even took a few steps back in shock.
How could the little devil's things be so easily given away?
Just now, the members of the Meng Family and the Han Family had been beheaded for a mere mountain peak. Yet, the General Red Embellishment had asked this question at this time. Could it be that she intended to seize the little devil's territory? Even if she wanted to seize it, she should have tricked him into the temporary imperial residence, set up an ambush, and interrogated him in detail. How could she be so magnanimous and ask for it as if it were a few taels of silver?
However, Fang Xing's answer made them even more dumbfounded.
Not only was the little devil not angry, but he also waved his hand and said with a smile, "Are you looking down on me? How could I have the nerve to hand over a mountain peak? The four mountain peaks over there … I haven't set up a great array yet. I'll give them all to you. You can keep them for yourself and treat them as the Abyss Suppressing Division's. You can do whatever you want with them. When you present them to the Sage in the future, don't forget to put in a good word for me! "
"Of course. General Yun Ya, lead the troops to set up the great array!"
The General Red Embellishment seemed to have expected this and casually ordered the black-armored general to set up the great array.
Even the black-armored general was dumbfounded by such an order. After a long while, he realized that it was true and left in a daze.
At this moment, Wang Qiong had already put away her Great God Bow. She stood on the back of the toad and jumped high up into the air. The earth trembled and the mountains shook. She jumped down from the back of the toad and arrived beside Fang Xing. Fang Xing casually patted Wang Qiong's shoulder and said with a smile, "Senior Wang Qiong, it's all thanks to you for helping me today. Take the three mountains over there as my thanks to your Great Snowy Mountain. Keep them …"
"Okay, I thank you on behalf of my Senior Brother, Sister, and Senior Huqin!"
Wang Qiong's reply was unusually straightforward and did not mean to be polite at all.
Then, Fang Xing's gaze swept across the cultivators sinisterly and he said with a faint smile, "The other ten mountain peaks belong to us. Don't blame me for saying this first. I don't care which sect you belong to. If anyone dares to snatch the things that we have robbed and the things that I have personally given away, I will definitely fight to the death with you …"
No one cared about the threat in his words for a moment. Everyone was stunned.
Seven mountain peaks!
There were a total of seven mountain peaks. It must be known that it was not obvious right now, but when it came to the end, the experts of the various daos would arrive. With millions of cultivators and hundreds of orthodoxies, how many people would be able to occupy one of the hundred mountain peaks in the core region? Moreover, although the cultivators from the Divine Prefecture and the Devil Province had been fighting over the mountain peaks previously, it was only a fight over the name. In the end, no one knew which sect the mountain peaks would belong to. Who would be able to occupy it?
But now, the little devil had actually generously given away seven of the mountain peaks that had been assigned to them?
Especially the three that were given to the Great Snow Mountain …
What virtue and ability did the Great Snow Mountain have? It was not even a top orthodoxy in the northern region of the Divine Prefecture, yet it had obtained three of them at once?
If you were really so generous, wouldn't it be better to give the Meng clan and the Han clan a mountain and form a good relationship with them?
These questions were truly puzzling to the cultivators, but Fang Xing had done it so naturally, as if this was how it should be.
"Sigh, he acts recklessly and is short-sighted. This little devil is in the limelight this time, but a great disaster is about to befall him …"
Among the cultivators from the Divine Prefecture, some spoke softly and analyzed the situation. "He has seized the territory of the Devil Province, so he will naturally suffer the retaliation of the Devil Province's cultivators. He has also offended the Meng clan and the Han clan, so the Divine Prefecture will definitely not let him go. The biggest problem is that he has been showing off and placed his territory between the Divine Prefecture and the Devil Province. Isn't this a big piece of fat meat? With a pincer attack from both sides, let's see how he can defend it!"
When the other cultivators heard this, they all nodded secretly, knowing that this was true.
At this moment, General Red Embellishment was walking arm in arm with Fang Xing as they walked toward the banquet hall of the temporary imperial residence. She said to him in a low voice, "Your territory is sandwiched between the Divine Prefecture and the Devil Province, so it will be obstructed from both sides. When the Divine Son of the ancient clans of the Devil Province arrives, he will definitely snatch you away. When the major tribes of the Divine Prefecture come, they will definitely not limit themselves to this small area of the Taiyin River. Are you really confident that you can defend it then?"
Fang Xing, on the other hand, only grinned and said, "It's pretty good to be stuck in the middle. The Devil Province wants to snatch me, and the Divine Province also wants to snatch me. Then, wouldn't I become a young lady that everyone loves? I'll wait and see which of the two dares to offend me … "
