Chapter 1009 - Intimacy
Chapter 1009: Intimacy
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Fang Zhengzhi always liked a line of a poem, ‘The memory of Xiang Yu is cherished to this day because he chose to die instead of crossing the East of the Changjiang River after his defeat.’ 1
Although there was nothing worthy of debate or investigation for this line of the poem, it was uncertain if Xiang Yu could rise to power again after he had made it through the East area of the Changjiang River.
After all, in that era, Liu Bang had an obvious advantage in the battle.
However, there was something that he was sure about.
Xiang Yu was a heroic figure but because his entire life had been very smooth-sailing, it was very difficult for him to accept reality after a huge setback and make a comeback.
Fang Zhengzhi, on the other hand, was different…
Setbacks were normal for him.
Escaping was even more normal.
As the saying went, a man should be flexible.
Xiang Yu and Yu Ji’s story had ever since remained as a legend.
Fang Zhengzhi did not have a real Yu Ji but there was someone who could act as Yu Ji. That person was none other than Yun Qingwu.
It was difficult for him to comprehend it.
But it could be easily concluded in four words.
Live and die together.
“Pavilion Master Mu, leave with the disciples of the Human Alliance first and let Yun Qingwu stay,” said Fang Zhengzhi to Mu Qingfeng as he forcefully pulled Ping Yang and Yan Qianli back.
“Leave first?!” Mu Qingfeng was evidently shocked.
“Yes, immediately, right now, go and verify if there is really no way out of here!” Fang Zhengzhi was running out of time to explain to Mu Qingfeng.
“Alright… but, Yun Qingwu…” Mu Qingfeng wanted to ask a question as he could not understand what was the purpose of letting Yun Qingwu stay if the Human Alliance retreated.
However, Mu Qingfeng swallowed his words.
That was because the only thing he could do right now was to trust Fang Zhengzhi. After all, apart from trusting him, the Human Alliance had no other choice.
“Retreat!” A command was made.
The disciples of the Human Alliance looked at each other in confusion.
Wasn’t there no way out?
Where could they retreat to?
Unless he wanted them to jump off the cliff together?!
“What are all of you waiting for? Run!” Mo Shanshi was much more straight to the point as compared to Mu Qingfeng. Moreover, when he said that…
He ran!
Yes, Mo Shanshi ran!
He ran especially fast and did not look back at all.
“…”
Mu Qingfeng was speechless but he had to thank Mo Shanshi for doing that because after the disciples of the Human Alliance saw Mo Shanshi run, they finally reacted.
Run!
If Mo Shanshi ran, then why were they still staying behind?
All of the disciples of the Human Alliance ran towards the cliff behind them crazily.
“Valley Master Mo… runs at such a high speed!” Fang Zhengzhi exclaimed when he saw Mo Shanshi leading the Human Alliance.
The current situation required Fang Zhengzhi to be flexible.
That was because Nangong Mu was at the peak of his powers. He had fused with the Tree of God and had three Godly State experts and the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race supporting him.
Judging from this situation, Fang Zhengzhi had a very low chance of winning.
It was like a monster king taking a bet with a monster, whoever who lost would die. The outcome was that the Monster King had lost.
However, will the Monster King really die?
If anyone believed that, then that person was really too naive.
Fang Zhengzhi was facing the same predicament. Nangong Mu was too powerful and was powerful enough to fight against the four of them. Moreover, he had the Godly State experts and the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race supporting him.
Lose?
How naive!
Moreover…
There was no meaning for him to go against Nangong Mu as the person who had made the agreement with Fang Zhengzhi was Nangong Mu and not “Chou Qi”
After Fang Zhengzhi knew the true identity of Nangong Mu, he knew that the agreement of the competition would not be followed as it was a huge scam.
The troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race would never listen to a human.
This could be seen from the reaction of the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race when Fang Zhengzhi pointed out Nangong Mu’s identity. The grudges between races could not be resolved in days.
The agreement between Nangong Mu and Fang Zhengzhi…
Had too many loopholes!
“Don’t let them run!”
“Chase!”
“Chase and kill all of them!”
As they saw the Human Alliance run away, the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race begun to move as it was impossible for them to sit back and watch.
Under the leadership of a few Monster Kings, the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race charged towards the Human Alliance furiously.
“Freeze, or else I will kill Yun Qingwu!” Fang Zhengzhi moved behind Yun Qingwu. With one hand around Yun Qingwu’s throat, he pulled her towards his body.
“Young lord!”
“Young Empress!”
“…”
The troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race were shocked.
However, they did not stop but went around Fang Zhengzhi and Yun Qingwu. Meanwhile, they looked at Nangong Mu in unison.
As they were chasing after the Human Alliance, they were also waiting for Nangong Mu’s commands as he was their commander.
Yun Qingwu had made it clear outside the black stone palace.
“Haha, Fang Zhengzhi, I can’t believe you are using the same tactic again. How silly are you to be using the same tactic you had used earlier on when you were outside?” Yun Qingwu’s throat was being restrained and her body was lying unnaturally in Fang Zhengzhi’s chest but she did not panic.
Ping Yang, Yan Qianli and Yan Xiu were also forcefully pulled towards Fang Zhengzhi. They stared at him and could not understand why he was using Yun Qingwu to threaten the Monster Race and Demon Race again.
Was it useful?
If it was useful, the Monster Race and Demon Race would have retreated outside the black stone palace.
Why would they wait until now?
“Fang Zhengzhi, you are trying to threaten me with Young Lord? You don’t seem to remember what I said previously, I will only try to save Young Lord but I will not be threatened by you!” said Nangong Mu.
“I know, I won’t be able to threaten you with Yun Qingwu, but what if I used the entire humankind?” Fang Zhengzhi did not release Yun Qingwu despite Nangong Mu’s words.
“What do you mean?” Nangong Mu’s eyes were red.
“Nangong Mu, consider this, do you really want to make a command to kill all the Human Alliance? Do you think you would have fulfilled your mission if you did that? I know what you want, I will stay back with Yun Qingwu, how about that?” Fang Zhengzhi pointed at his chest as he said.
“You will stay back with Yun Qingwu?” Hearing this, Nangong Mu’s other arm slowly stretched out from the red Tree of God.
“That’s right, don’t you want to save Yun Qingwu? I can stay back, Yun Qingwu can also stay back, this is the best opportunity for you to save her!” said Fang Zhengzhi.
Saving Yun Qingwu…
Fang Zhengzhi knew that Nangong Mu’s purpose was not to do that.
However, he also knew that Nangong Mu would not be able to kill the entire Human Alliance as if he would have already taken action if he really wanted to do that.
He did not take action!
That meant that Nangong Mu was unable to kill the entire humankind.
In fact, Fang Zhengzhi only realized that after he saw Nangong Mu’s real appearance.
Nangong Mu wanted to become the leader of humankind and fulfill the uncompleted mission of the Nangong Nobles, therefore, how would he kill the entire humankind?
Fang Zhengzhi was taking a bet.
He was betting that Nangong Mu would definitely release the Human Alliance.
Of course, Nangong Mu needed a reason to release the Human Alliance, and Fang Zhengzhi had already given Nangong Mu the reason to do so. It was none other than Yun Qingwu.
‘The memory of Xiang Yu is cherished to this day because he chose to die instead of crossing the East of the Changjiang River after his defeat.’
Fang Zhengzhi made a similar decision as Xiang Yu and chose to stay behind and face death with Yun Qingwu, hoping that “Han Xin” would be able to release the Human Alliance.
“Sir ‘Chou Qi’, Young Lord is…”
“We hope Sir Chou Qi can save Young Lord from the Human Alliance!”
“Please save Young Lord, Sir ‘Chou Qi’!”
The Monster Race and Demon Race were moved as all of them were hoping that Yun Qingwu was able to return to the Monster Race and Demon Race to lead them again.
“Fang Zhengzhi, you seemed to have forgotten about something!” Nangong Mu clenched his fists when he saw the Human Alliance retreat.
“No!” Fang Zhengzhi shook his head.
“How do I believe you?” asked Nangong Mu again.
“You only can choose to believe me,” said Fang Zhengzhi.
It was a retarded conversation. Apart from Fang Zhengzhi and Nangong Mu, the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race stared at each other and could not understand Fang Zhengzhi.
However, Fang Zhengzhi knew what Nangong Mu was asking for.
It was none other than Yun Qingwu…
Nangong Mu needed an excuse to save the Human Alliance but he did not need Yun Qingwu to return to the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race to lead.
Therefore, Nangong Mu wanted Yun Qingwu, a dead Yun Qingwu.
“Shameless brat, what are you two talking about?” Ping Yang clearly did not understand their conversation and asked.
“Leave first.” Fang Zhengzhi did not answer Ping Yang’s question.
“What?! THe martial arts competition hasn’t even ended, how can I leave?” Ping Yang was confused.
“Princess, Your Highness, let’s listen to Fang Zhengzhi and leave first.” Yan Qianli disrupted Ping Yang as he knew that Fang Zhengzhi would definitely take this risky step after fighting with Nangong Mu.
Retreat!
It was extremely risky to retreat now!
In fact, it was way riskier to retreat than to attack as Fang Zhengzhi could definitely drag on further until the Human Alliance fought with the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race and choose to leave when everything was in a mess.
However, Fang Zhengzhi did not choose to do that. That meant that Fang Zhengzhi had the thought of leading the Human Alliance.
Therefore, why would Yan Qianli continue to suspect Fang Zhengzhi’s intention?
Even though he did not understand, he would comply. This was the determination of an iron-blooded soldier, a soldier who was born and lived in the battlefield.
“Grandfather, leave first!” said Yan Xiu.
“No, Yan Qianli, you are not only the friend of Fang Zhengzhi but also the descendant of the Yan family. You are a soldier! Now, you have to follow Fang Zhengzhi’s commands!” Yan Qianli knew what his grandson was thinking about but he also knew that Fang Zhengzhi had his reason of letting them leave first.
“Grandfather…”
“Xiu, leave first, trust me!” Fang Zhengzhi looked at Yan Xiu. He knew that Yan Xiu would not leave but he could not let Yan Xiu stay beside him.
“We will die together!” Yan Xiu was determined.
“We will live together!” Fang Zhengzhi was also determined.
“We can live?”
“We have to give it a shot.”
“Alright, understood.” Yan Xiu stopped probing further as he already knew the answer. Without hesitation, he turned and ran towards the back.
“…” Ping Yang widened her eyes.
Didn’t the two of them say they will live and die together, so why did Yan Xiu run so quickly?
“Wait for me!” Ping Yang shouted and wanted to catch up.
“Ping Yang, wait.” Something struck Fang Zhengzhi and the Heavenly Rebirth Dao moved in his hand before he dragged Ping Yang back.
“…” Ping Yang looked extremely confused. She had finally made the decision to run and Fang Zhengzhi pulled her back again?
What was he doing?
However, if Fang Zhengzhi called her back, could there be something interesting for her to do?
Thinking about that made her thrilled!
“Did you call me back because you don’t bear to let me go, or did you realize how intelligent I am and need my help?” Ping Yang asked in anticipation.
“Oh, I don’t need your intelligence, I only need your Blazing Qilin Spear.” Fang Zhengzhi said calmly as he looked at Ping Yang.
“…” Ping Yang stared at Fang Zhengzhi.
“…” Fang Zhengzhi also stared at Ping Yang.
Silence.
Dead silence.
Then, the Blazing Qilin Spear which was glowing in red was thrown towards Fang Zhengzhi and Ping Yang ran away pouting angrily.
“Are we not giving chase?” Mu Xing and the other two Godly State experts looked at Nangong Mu.
“Wait.” Nangong Mu replied with one word.
“…” The three Godly State experts could not understand but kept silent after thinking about how Lin Yu died.
At this moment, Yun Qingwu leaned closer to Fang Zhengzhi’s chest unexpectedly and placed her mouth beside Fang Zhengzhi’s ear.
“Do you want to die with me?” Yun Qingwu’s soft voice was heard. She intentionally lowered her volume so that only Fang Zhengzhi could hear her.
“Haha…” Fang Zhengzhi smiled and leaned towards Yun Qingwu’s ear. “Dream on!”
