Chapter 973: This Wave of “Turbulent” Operation
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“It’s Meng Tian!”
“Meng Tian is sneakily attacking us!”
“…”
The troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race became extremely cautious as the three Godly State experts were attacked. After all, the haze around them disrupted their vision and they could not see what was in a distance.
That affected the speed of the troop’s progress.
However, it merely affected their speed as this attack did not seriously hurt the three Godly State experts.
“Follow closely!” Mu Xing frowned and gave his commands. Meanwhile, the light screen on top of his head became brighter.
It was evident that the Godly State experts, including Mu Xing, did not notice the change in color of the surroundings. Meanwhile, the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race followed closely behind the Godly State Experts with a serious expression.
However, Fang Zhengzhi saw the black “things”.
It was like a texture of stone. Of course, Fang Zhengzhi would not bother about it if it was merely a black stone.
That was because that would only mean that the road in the haze was paved by black stones.
However, when Fang Zhengzhi saw the black stones, his eyes widened and he looked evidently shocked.
The reason was…
There were some special marks on the rocks which looked like they were made by gigantic locks.
Fang Zhengzhi had seen similar marks once before.
It was on the Heaven Zen Mountain after the Gate of God of the Realm of Monsters and Demons opened. The first gigantic black rock that landed had the same mark on it.
In other words, the black stone paved on the ground was exactly the same as the black rocks that sealed the ancient monsters and demons in terms of both texture and marking.
How did this happen?!
Fang Zhengzhi could not understand why.
That was because based on his understanding, the black stones should only exist in the galaxy world and they were used to seal the body and spirits of the monsters and demons.
Why were there similar black stones here?
Unless there were monsters and demons sealed in the black stone palace too?
Impossible!
Fang Zhengzhi quickly negated this possibility. Although he saw a bit of the black light, he could roughly seduce that the entire floor beneath his feet was paved by the black stones. Judging from the size, what kind of monster or demon required so many black stones to be sealed?
This guess was over-terrifying and Fang Zhengzhi did not believe that such a thing would happen. Therefore, he quickly negated this possibility.
However, although he negated it, this discovery made him think of something.
Black stone palace…
Should be related to the galaxy world.
However, if it was related to the galaxy world, why did it end up at the foot of the sword peak of the Heaven Dao Pavilion?
Shouldn’t it be on the Heaven Zen Mountain?
Moreover, the black stone palace appeared before the Gate of God of the Realm of Monsters and Demons had opened.
Wait a minute!
Heaven Dao Pavilion…
Black stone palace? Heaven Zen Mountain… Earlier?!
Could it be that occasion? That occasion when Nangong Hao was in the Heaven Dao Pavilion…
Fang Zhengzhi suddenly remembered something. Nangong Hao once killed the ex-leader Tian Xing of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain at the Heaven Dao Pavilion. Nangong Hao also opened a door then.
Heaven-Receiving Door!
And the Heaven-Receiving Door landed in the Heaven Dao Pavilion.
“The black stone palace flew out from the Heaven-Receiving Door and the Heaven-Receiving Door was connected to the galaxy world, this means that… the black stone palace is similar to the black stones that sealed the monsters and demons, they belong to the galaxy world!” Fang Zhengzhi figured this out very quickly.
However, there was another problem now.
According to the ancient legend, in the past, a natural disaster struck and another Earth led the humankind, Monster Race and Demon Race to defend against the natural disaster.
Then, because of the depletion of her strength, Mother Earth was unable to bring back the Godly State experts of the three races and hence they ended up being sealed in the galaxy world.
Therefore, what was the wrecked black stone palace meant for?
That did not make sense at all!
Since Mother Earth had depleted her strength and the Godly State experts were sealed, how could there possibly be another black stone palace built in the galaxy world?
Furthermore, it was a wrecked palace.
Wait a minute!
Something was wrong, very wrong!
Fang Zhengzhi remembered that Ping Yang had once told him that Mu Qingfeng decided to hold an alliance meeting after he saw something in the black stone palace.
Meanwhile, there were records about the natural disaster in the black stone palace.
This meant that the black stone palace should have existed after the natural disaster and this could be proven by Qin Xian, Mu Xing and the other Godly State experts.
After Mu Xing and the three Godly State experts led the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race into the black stone palace, they did not seem very familiar with the interior of it.
This meant that they were unaware of the presence of the black stone palace as well.
The black stone palace was built after the natural disaster but came from the galaxy world?
It was impossible!
How could this be possible?
That was because the Gate of God connecting to the galaxy world was already closed and Mother Earth should have “died” by then, however, all the Godly State experts in the galaxy world were sealed. Who would be able to get to the galaxy world to build this wrecked palace
Moreover, the materials used to build this palace was the same material as that used to seal the Godly State experts.
It was too strange.
All of the evidence seemed to be telling Fang Zhengzhi that the black stone palace should not have existed. However, he was forced to believe as the truth was right in front of him.
“Forget it, I will reserve my judgments until I find the stone tablet and see what was inscribed on it.” Fang Zhengzhi was not someone who dwelled over things.
Since he could not figure out about it, he would not think about it now.
Meanwhile, because of Fang Zhengzhi, the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race and the three Godly State experts had slowed down a little and the distance between them and the Human Alliance widened.
If he did not leave now, when would he leave?
Fang Zhengzhi was about to grab onto Ping Yang and continue running but did not manage to catch anything.
“…”
What the hell?
Where was Ping Yang? Where did she go? Didn’t he ask Ping Yang to follow him?
Fang Zhengzhi swept around him from behind to the left then to the right before he realized that Ping Yang had run ahead of him.
Moreover, she acted like a crazy dog.
She ran at an extremely fast speed.
As she ran, she waved the Blazing Qilin Spear in her hands and said, “I am the number one Battle God in the world, die, monsters and demons!”
“…” Fang Zhengzhi was speechless. Evidently, Ping Yang had been influenced by the voices around her and was in the illusionary state.
By right, this was something that should not happen as after all, even though Ping Yang was not as powerful as Fang Zhengzhi, she always still a sage.
The Illusionary state…
Should not exist!
However, Ping Yang behaved as though she was affected by the illusion spell.
If Fang Zhengzhi was correct, the reason behind this should be related to how Ping Yang did not have a solid foundation as she had entered the Sage State a little too quickly.
In six months’ time, she advanced to the Sage State. Fang Zhengzhi would definitely not believe that Ping Yang’s foundation was solid.
“It seems like although her cultivation is there, her state of mind is still lacking.” Fang Zhengzhi was about to catch up with Ping Yang when he felt that Yun Qingwu moved.
He lowered his head…
And saw Yun Qingwu staring at him.
“Hmm?!” Fang Zhengzhi could see some things from Yun Qingwu’s eyes, which had lost the calmness.
Instead, there was a blazing emotion in her eyes.
Seriously?
Did Yun Qingwu get influenced by the spell too?
Fang Zhengzhi did not know whether to consider this as a good or bad thing. However, he was not surprised by this as after all, Yun Qingwu’s level of cultivation was very low.
She was only at the Star Conglomerate State.
She entered the black stone palace with a Star Conglomerate State. If she did not get influenced by the illusion spell, then nobody else would.
“Fang… Fang Zhengzhi, I… I need to tell you something.” At this moment, Yun Qingwu spoke and edged towards Fang Zhengzhi.
“How many times have I said that…” Fang Zhengzhi was about to reply her before he realized that he did not need to because Yun Qingwu was under the spell.
If she was under the illusion spell, would she still remember what he had said?
Of course not!
This was common sense and Fang Zhengzhi knew about this. Therefore, after a slight hesitation, he took back his words.
“I… I did not lead the troops to the Northern Mountain Village… Northern Mountain Village… it was my father, he ordered for the troops to go…” Yun Qingwu’s voice was heard again.
Fang Zhengzhi frowned slightly.
The military order was not given by Yun Qingwu? It was a military order by the Demon Lord? How was this possible, Yun Qingwu was at the Northern Mountain Village at that time. He clearly saw that with his own eyes.
Could it be that Yun Qingwu was not under the illusion spell?
Was it a plot by her?!
Fang Zhengzhi felt that he had to be cautious about this as it was likely that Yun Qingwu was acting as though she was under the spell so as to make Fang Zhengzhi release her.
How was that possible?
Fang Zhengzhi was not foolish.
“That day, when I… when I rushed over to the Northern Mountain Village, your village chief had already… already died. I could only save your father and mother, I…”
Fang Zhengzhi could no longer make out what Yun Qingwu said after that as there was a ferocious gigantic wave surging in his heart.
Yun Qingwu saved his father and mother?!
Fang Zhengzhi did not believe that!
He would never believe it!
“She must be faking!” Fang Zhengzhi was certain that Yun Qingwu was faking. In order to prove this, he felt that it was time to sacrifice his image.
What was Yun Qingwu most afraid of?
Chastity!
Fang Zhengzhi was very aware of this. He clearly remembered how he forced Yun Qingwu to act normally by using this tactic.
If Yun Qingwu was acting, she would definitely not tolerate it.
Touch her?
And see what was her reaction?
Anyway…
Ping Yang had already run ahead and there was no one around. If he did not do it now, when can he do it?
However, was he taking advantage of Yun Qingwu?
Fang Zhengzhi was in a dilemma. Although he was slightly shameless, he had his bottom line with regards to gender issues. It was always the woman taking advantage of him and not the other way round.
He could not get used to being the one initiating it.
Ok…
Then he shall just touch the face!
Fang Zhengzhi could not bring himself to take advantage of Yun Qingwu when she was under the “illusion spell”.
After all, this was a morally wrong thing to do.
Even though Yun Qingwu made use of him often, he would be nothing better than a wicked demon if he did it.
A touch on the face was Fang Zhengzhi’s limit.
At this moment, he moved and touched Yun Qingwu’s face. It felt so smooth and warm that his palm trembled.
Then, a scene that shocked Fang Zhengzhi happened.
Just when Fang Zhengzhi touched Yun Qingwu’s face, Yun Qingwu’s arms wrapped around Fang Zhengzhi’s hand.
She did not press on Fang Zhengzhi’s right chest like before.
Instead, she wrapped her arms around Fang Zhengzhi’s hand completely and this caused him to feel a “stress” on his arm.
“I did not do that on purpose!” Fang Zhengzhi wanted to explain himself but Yun Qingwu hugged his arm so tightly without any worries and her smooth face rubbed against Fang Zhengzhi’s palm unknowingly.
Moreover, after Yun Qingwu rubbed against his arm, she stretched out her hand and grabbed onto Fang Zhengzhi’s pants.
“I… f*ck!” Fang Zhengzhi could not react in time and before he knew, the waistband on his pants was forcefully pulled down by Yun Qingwu.
Fang Zhengzhi who was running while hugging onto Yun Qingwu never expected her to do this and almost tripped and fell.
It had to be admitted that this action was completely out of Fang Zhengzhi’s control. He could say for sure that Yun Qingwu would definitely not do this even if she did not want him to kill her.
What was she doing?!
The disciples of the Human Alliance and Mo Shanshi stared at them.
Moreover, Mu Xing and the three Godly State experts and the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race were chasing them closely behind. Why did Yun Qingwu decide to do this at this point in time?!
