Chapter 1058: An Unexpected Event!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
If an innocent girl whom you had wooed for one year finally sat on your bed, blinked at you and shouted, “Dear, come…”
What would you do?
By right, an ordinary man would have pounced over, right?
However, the ending of the story was not as such.
The man dashed forward but pulled the girl down from the bed and shouted, “I just washed the bedsheets, are you blind?”
Blind!
That was what Mu Qingfeng and the rest felt.
“Are you really blind or pretending to be blind? Pests… what f*cking pests?! Fang Zhengzhi, are you dumb?!” Mu Qingfeng could not hold it in any further.
A distance of three feet.
And still not attacking?!
If he was not blind, what else could it be?
Apart from Mu Qingfeng, even the face of Yan Qianli, who trusted Fang Zhengzhi, turned black and he could not figure out what Fang Zhengzhi was thinking about.
Did he suddenly suffer a stroke because he used too much brainpower?
However, the main problem was that not only did Fang Zhengzhi suffer a stroke, but also Yan Xiu, Chi Guyan and Ping Yang as none of them attacked.
Let’s not talk about Ping Yang for now! (Rant by Ping Yang: Why don’t talk about me?!)
Yan Xiu and Chi Guyan were people who knew the situation well. Yan Qianli did not believe that the grandson he had doted on did not see the urgency of the problem.
Wait!
‘No!’
Even if Fang Zhengzhi did not think it through properly, both Chi Guyan and Yan Xiu had no reason for acting the same way?
Something was wrong!
Just as Yan Qianli felt that something was wrong, there was a turn of event. The powers of the warlocks suddenly increased and they broke open all the golden tree branches in front of Nangong Mu instantly.
“…” Nangong Mu’s expression changed.
Based on his deduction, his golden tree branches could at least defend against two attacks by the twelve warlocks. However, all of them were broken apart at one go?
It must be on purpose!
Nangong Mu also figured it out very quickly, the twelve warlocks were holding back their true capabilities.
They advanced calmly initially and gave Nangong Mu and Fang Zhengzhi the false impression that they still had time. Then, they suddenly attacked and made it difficult for them to react.
“Oh no!” Yan Qianli was surprised.
“Nangong Mu is in danger!”
“…”
Mu Qingfeng, Wu Yuer and the rest were also shocked.
Although they had yet to figure out what Fang Zhengzhi and the rest were planning to do, they had invested all their hopes on them.
After all, like what Yan Qianli had thought, even if Fang Zhengzhi was not thinking straight, it was impossible for both Chi Guyan and Yan Xiu to not think straight too?
At this moment, the awful tune was heard again, it was still a very delightful voice, “We are pests, we are pests…”
Like before, the voice came from the back of the twelve warlocks and were still three feet away from them.
“Not again?!” The twelve warlocks, including Hong You, were annoyed.
The four of them were still using such a harassment tactic at this point in time. It was rather hilarious as Nangong Mu’s defense had been broken apart.
They were still not attacking?
Were they dumb or what?
The twelve warlocks did not want to underestimate their opponent but the voice was so clear that it was difficult for them to not believe it.
In fact, besides the twelve warlocks, even Mu Qingfeng and Yan Qianli felt that Fang Zhengzhi and the rest were dumb.
Really dumb!
“He was still fooling around?!”
That was what Mu Qingfeng and Yan Qianli felt. They would not have felt this way If Nangong Mu still had the power to defend.
Yet now, the golden tree branches in front of Nangong Mu had completely broken apart.
To put it nastily, the fruit of the Tree of God in Nangong Mu’s hand could disappear in a blink of an eye and get snatched away by the twelve warlocks.
Then…
The fruit of the Tree of God in Nangong Mu’s hand really disappeared.
“…” Yan Qianli opened his mouth
“Fang Zhengzhi, you brat…” Mu Qingfeng could not resist the temptation to curse as he was almost desperate. However, he did not finish his sentence.
The reason was simple, a figure wearing blue robe was standing behind Nangong Mu. He also had a slight smile on his face.
“Fang Zhengzhi?!”
“Fang Zhengzhi!”
Mu Qingfeng, Yan Qianli, and the twelve warlocks widened their eyes as they never expected Fang Zhengzhi to appear behind Nangong Mu.
Shouldn’t he appear behind the twelve warlocks
The twelve warlocks turned around instinctively.
Mu Qingfeng and the rest also looked at a distance three meters behind the twelve warlocks.
There was indeed a figure.
However, there was only one.
She was wearing a holy and grand armor that was white in color. She had a dark blue long sword in her hand and her black long hair fell until her waist. She was extremely arrogant.
“Chi Guyan?!”
“…”
The person who appeared behind the twelve warlocks was Chi Guyan?
Not only did the twelve warlocks not believe this, but Mu Qingfeng, Yan Qianli and the rest also could not figure out what had happened.
“Inertia!” Fang Zhengzhi’s voice was heard before he raised his hand slowly with a golden fruit in his hand. “The mindset of inertia, even if you don’t believe that we are still behind you, once you hear our voices, you have to believe it!”
“…”
“…”
“…”
The world fell silent.
The twelve warlocks, Nangong Mu, Mu Qingfeng, and the rest had their mouths agape but nobody said anything.
Mindset of inertia!
A mindset of inertia that managed to trick three parties at once!
Everyone finally figured it out.
Fang Zhengzhi had his eyes on the fruit of the Tree of God in Nangong Mu’s hand all along but he managed to hide this intention very well.
Of course, it was not easy for him to hide his intention.
That was because both the twelve warlocks and Nangong Mu would be extremely cautious about the fruit of the Tree of God.
Even though Fang Zhengzhi did not look interested in the fruit of the Tree of God, was he really not interested?
Nangong Mu did not believe that Fang Zhengzhi would listen to him and kept his guard up against both the twelve warlocks and Fang Zhengzhi.
The twelve warlocks too.
However, the golden tree branches were acting as a means of attack and defense between Nangong Mu and the twelve warlocks. This caused both parties to be more steady.
Before the golden tree branches were destroyed…
The fruit of the Tree of God would not be snatched by anyone.
The mindset of the twelve warlocks was not simple and they were in fact very cunning.
Although Fang Zhengzhi was floating behind them, they could guess that Fang Zhengzhi would aim for the fruit of the Tree of God in Nangong Mu’s hand.
Therefore, they used a scheme to act steadily and create an illusion before they suddenly attacked and broke the tree branches.
In reality, they did it.
They were about to accomplish their mission.
They were extremely cautious at this moment. However, just while they were extremely cautious, the annoying song was heard behind them.
“…”
The problem came.
If the song was not heard, they would definitely watch out for Fang Zhengzhi’s attack on Nangong Mu. However, the song was heard at that moment…
Mindset of inertia…
The f*cking mindset of inertia!
Like what Fang Zhengzhi said, even though they did not believe that Fang Zhengzhi would still float behind them, they had the false impression because of the mindset of inertia.
They thought that Fang Zhengzhi and the rest were still behind them.
Then…
There was no ‘then’!
Not only did Fang Zhengzhi tricked the twelve warlocks, but he also tricked Nangong Nu too.
The twelve warlocks were stunned. As experienced schemers, they did not expect to lose because of a mere mindset of inertia.
Nangong Mu was stunned too.
He was so cautious and even made up his mind to return to the Tree of God when he saw the golden tree branches break.
However, he lost to Fang Zhengzhi again.
“Return me the fruit, you can’t absorb it at all, there is no use for you even if you ate it!” Nangong Mu was anxious and his eyes turned red.
He knew that if the fruit ended up with Fang Zhengzhi, the only outcome was that he would open his mouth and swallow it.
Although he still did not understand…
Why didn’t Fang Zhengzhi die after swallowing the fruit of the Tree of God?
That was the reality.
He knew that Fang Zhengzhi could swallow the fruit of the Tree of God in one bite.
By then, it would be extremely difficult to get the fruit of the Tree of God out of Fang Zhengzhi stomach. After all, talking about escaping…
Fang Zhengzhi was extremely good at that!
“Brat, hand over the fruit. We, the twelve warlocks, can agree to any terms you bring up, be it a plot of land or making you the king of the generation!” said Hong You.
After all, now that the fruit of the Tree of God was with Fang Zhengzhi, it was definitely much harder to snatch it from him than from Nangong Mu.
“The king of the generation?” Fang Zhengzhi gave a look of disdain.
At this moment, there was a turn of event. After Hong You finishes his sentence, the other eleven warlocks suddenly attacked Chi Guyan who was behind them.
This was a trick that killed two birds with a stone.
They used a tone for negotiation with Fang Zhengzhi but used a forceful tactic for Chi Guyan who was nearby.
However, were they able to be forceful?
When the eleven warlocks attacked, they realized that Chi Guyan had already escaped and had no intent to stay to play around with them.
She escaped really quickly.
“…” The eleven warlocks were speechless.
Meanwhile, Fang Zhengzhi laughed brightly as he saw this. Chi Guyan was almost as good as him when it came to escaping.
If not for that…
He would not have placed Chi Guyan at that eye-catching position.
The eleven warlocks instinctively wanted to give chase but Hong You waved his hand and signaled for them to stop.
“One wrong step caused us to be at a disadvantage.” Hong You shook his had. He knew that if Chi Guyan really wanted to escape, she would not be caught in a short span of time.
Moreover, in front of them stood Fang Zhengzhi who mastered the Heavenly Rebirth Dao. If they missed the opportunity, it would be very difficult for them to catch Chi Guyan again.
Since their original plan had failed, Hong You diverted his attention to Fang Zhengzhi. “Brother Fang, do you believe that I will keep my promise or not?”
“I believe. How can I not believe the words of the twelve ancient warlocks.” Fang Zhengzhi shook his head. He was playing with the fruit of the Tree of God but did not stop moving his feet.
Almost instantly, he had reached a place that was far away with Yan Xiu and Ping Yang.
Nangong Mu gritted his teeth.
Since the start, the fruit of the Tree of God had been snatched by Fang Zhengzhi and that resulted in the failure of the plans of the Nangong Nobles. Finally, they managed to regain their loss…
They were so close to opening the Door of the Realm of God.
But the fruit got snatched?!
How detestable!
“Since brother Fang believes me, then what are you worried about?” Hong You changed his tone and called Fang Zhengzhi as a brother. Then, he continued,” Unless brother Fang does not aspire to be a king? If that’s the case, why not you state your terms, if we can do it, we will definitely do it without hesitation.”
“Really?” Fang Zhengzhi blinked.
“Of course!” Hong You’s eyes lit up, there was hope if there was a discussion. Once they obtained the fruit of the Tree of God, it was not up to Fang Zhengzhi to decide whether they would fulfill their promise or not.
“…”
“Fang Zhengzhi, don’t be stupid!” Mu Qingfeng was very anxious when he heard the conversation between Fang Zhengzhi and Hong You. “Don’t believe in the monsters and demons!”
“Exactly!” Yan Qianli nodded too.
“…”
Fang Zhengzhi ignored Mu Qingfeng and Yan Qianli. He placed the fruit of the Tree of God into his mouth and opened it.
“No!” Nangong Mu was desperate.
“Don’t… Brother Fang, hold on, state your terms, is one not enough? No problem, we will grant you three, three terms, how about that?” Hong You was also anxious.
“Three terms?” Fang Zhengzhi smiled.
“Yes!” Hong You nodded and added, “That’s our limits, three terms, as long as we can do it, we will try our best.”
“Alright, kill the three beasts for me!” Fang Zhengzhi pointe at Qiong Qi, Hun Dun and the other ancient beast and smiled sheepishly.
“Kill the three beasts?!” Hong You was shocked as he turned to look at the three beasts. He narrowed his eyes and said, “No problem, but I am afraid that we are not powerful enough to fight against them. However, if you hand over the fruit to us, we will have the power to kill the three beasts, are you willing to do that, Brother Fang?”
