Plop! Yan Yin's legs gave way and he knelt on the ground. This was an action that no one with his admirable status would take, the only explanation was that he could no longer stand.
Blood flowed form the corner of Yan Yin's mouth and he took heavy breaths that caused his chest to move rapidly while beads of perspiration trickled down his face.
"Elder Yan!"
"Old man Yan, hold on!"
Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi sounded desperate. They were evidently stunned.
An attack!
Merely an attack was sufficient for Yan Yin to collapse!
The powers of the Space-splitting Demon God had completely surpassed their expectations. Even the word 'terrifying' was not sufficient to describe how they felt.
Depressed, extremely depressed.
The Space-splitting Demon God stood silently on the spot without moving. He did not deliberately emit a stronger and more powerful radiance and aura, yet he gave off a terrifying vibe.
"So, who's next?" The Space-splitting Demon God looked around at Mu Qingfeng then Mo Shanshi and Qian Yu. Finally, his gaze fell back on Fang Zhengzhi. "Actually, I had a good relationship with Jiang Ji."
"Hmm, I had a good relationship with him too." Fang Zhengzhi nodded his head calmly. Instead of flushing, his expression was extremely calm.
"…"
"…"
There was a type of person who made people feel that he was extremely shameless simply by uttering one sentence. Obviously, Fang Zhengzhi was this type of person.
At this instant, apart from Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi, even the Space-splitting Demon God was speechless.
"Looks like you don't really believe me?" Fang Zhengzhi smiled and said again when he saw that Space-splitting Demon God remained silent.
"Do you think I will believe you?" The Space-splitting Demon God twitched his mouth and looked impatient, but still forced a smile and asked Fang Zhengzhi.
"Hmm, it is indeed not easily convincing. However, I believe you will believe me when I say my real identity," Fang Zhengzhi said unhurriedly.
"Real identity?" The Space-splitting Demon God's expressions turned from impatience to confusion. After a while of silence, he said, "Let me hear it."
"This is a long story…"
"Then cut it short."
"Alright, but before I declare my identity, you should have noticed that I am the only one who is so young and yet standing amongst the world's most powerful individuals. Don't you find it strange?" Fang Zhengzhi nodded his head and continued.
"Hmm… Are you trying to imply that you are more gifted than them?" The Space-splitting Demon God narrowed his eyes and asked.
"Do you think it is possible to solely rely on gift?"
"Indeed it is not very possible. Then cut to the point, what's your identity?"
"Actualy, I am the reincarnation of Emperor Huang!"
Pfft! Yan Yin trembled violently and spat out a mouth of blood. Nobody knows if it was because of Fang Zhengzhi's words or the fact that his body could not last him longer.
In fact, apart from Yan Yin, Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shanshi and Qian Yu would have probably spat out blood if they had it in their mouths too.
How could Fang Zhengzhi be so shameless?
Reincarnation of Emperor Huang!
How thick must this brat's skin be to say such big words unscrupulously. Furthermore, he had said it so calmly.
If people could believe his ridiculous words, then either the world is mad or the person who believed him is mad. Did Fang Zhengzhi really treat the Space-splitting Demon God as a fool?
"Hahaha…" After stoning for a while, the Space-splitting Demon God finally laughed. He laughed wildly for a moment before his face turned back to the stern and cold expression. "Enough rubbish. Now, let me see what kind of surprise this reincarnated Emperor Huang can bring me!"
Obviously, the Space-splitting Demon God did not believe Fang Zhengzhi.
Fang Zhengzhi was not too surprised. After all, even he would not believe such nonsensical words.
Yet, these are no longer important.
What was important was that he was still alive. Even though he had lived only for an extra time of a few sentences, as compared to dying straight away, he felt that he had gain something.
As the saying went, 'happiness comes with a contented mind'.
Fang Zhengzhi was someone who knew how to be contented. Besides that, he had another habit where he would try his best to obtain as much 'content' as he could.
"Trying to kill me?" Fang Zhengzhi panicked.
"Can't I?" The Space-splitting Demon God smiled and looked even more cold. He looked at Fang Zhengzhi with arrogance and despise as though he was a giant looking at an ant.
"Of course you can, but I thought I heard the demon race abide by the rule where the most powerful gets to take charge."
"Unfortunately, you are not a demon."
"But Yun Qingwu is." As Fang Zhengzhi said this, he pointed to Yun Qingwu who was standing calmly nearby.
"Yes, she is a demon, but what does that got to do with you?"
"I remember you had bet with her earlier on, the person who could stand here for a longer time without moving will be regarded as the more powerful one, am I right?" Fang Zhengzhi asked.
"Sort of." the Space-splitting Demon God did not give a direct answer.
"Since you have decided to compete with Yun Qingwu, you should follow the rules of Yun Qingwu, am I right?" Fang Zhengzhi continued.
"So, how should I follow her rules?"
"Well, when Yun Qingwu was standing here, she did not use any weapons." Fang Zhengzhi pointed towards Yun Qingwu's empty hands, then pointed at the Space-splitting Demon God's black bone spur.
"Hahaha…" The Space-splitting Demon God laughed and his body shook. However, he regained his stern and cold expression very quickly and said, "Right, you are right. Yun Qingwu did not use any weapons, if I did, I would have violated the rules."
As he spoke, the black bone spur in his right hand vanished into thin air, as though it had entered his body.
This scene caused the onlookers to develop extremely complicated emotions.
So…
With a few sentences, the Space-splitting Demon God had kept his weapon?
Amongst the rest, they all knew how shameless Fang Zhengzhi was all along. Yet now they understood that hidden beneath this shamelessness, he was exceptionally intelligent.
At this moment, Yun Qingwu's lips moved and looked at Fang Zhengzhi. She looked as though she wanted to say something but decided to shut her mouth in the end.
Nobody knew what was going on in Yun Qingwu's mind.
That was because everyone knew that Yun Qingwu's words would cause the Space-splitting Demon God to flash his weapon once again. Since Yun Qingwu did not say anything, the Space-splitting Demon God naturally did not flash his weapon again.
"Now, there shouldn't be any more problems?" As he spoke to Fang Zhengzhi, the Space-splitting Demon God looked at Yun Qingwu as though he was speaking to her as well.
"Of course there's still a problem," Fang Zhengzhi replied without thinking further.
"What problem?" The Space-splitting Demon God narrowed his eyes. It was clear that he had reached his limits of patience.
"Since Yun Qingwu's enlightenment state is only the Star Conglomerate State, you should lower your enlightenment state to that of a mortal."
"What if I don't agree?"
"There's no problem if you don't agree. However, you should at least show it from your appearance. If you don't want to lower your enlightenment state, at least change your outfit? Look at Yun Qingwu's normal dress, shouldn't you remove your armor?"
"Nonsense!"
"Fine, actually what I wanted to say is, I am really the reincarnated Emperor Huang. It would be extremely dangerous if you really decide to go against me. It's still not too late to regret."
"…"
"…"
Once a person had reached the extent of shamelessness, he could in fact make the onlookers feel less nervous even in extremely precarious situations.
For example, Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi had felt so. Subconsciously, they found that they had recovered slightly in terms of inner strength.
Delaying time?
Was Fang Zhengzhi trying to delay time? Yet, what was the point of him delaying time in such a situation?
"You brat, die!" The Space-splitting Demon God evidently had no interest in continuing the conversation with Fang Zhengzhi. With his right hand raised, he was about to slap Fang Zhengzhi to death.
"Wait, I still have my final words to say!" Fang Zhengzhi raised his hand at this instant, his face looking extremely anxious and panicky.
"Speak!" The Space-splitting Demon God forced himself to say this word.
"Are you sure you would stand on the spot without moving at all?" Fang Zhengzhi looked at the position where the Space-splitting Demon God was standing at and subconsciously stepped backwards.
Seeing this scene, the onlookers finally understood. Judging from Fang Zhengzhi's actions and personality, he was about to make an escape.
Somewhat shameless.
Yet, in this situation, Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi did not think that Fang Zhengzhi's choice was wrong. After all, before he escaped, he risked his life and made the Space-splitting Demon God keep his weapon.
They ought to thank Fang Zhengzhi for this.
Furthermore, Fang Zhengzhi was only eighteen. He had much more potential than the few of them who were much older.
"Yes." The Space-splitting Demon God finally nodded after he kept silent for a moment.
"You brat, I'll defend him!" Right after the Space-splitting Demon God spoke, Mo Shanshi raised his black giant hammer and struck it downwards at the Space-splitting Demon God's head.
"Me too!" Mu Qingfeng also charged downwards with his long sword producing a loud and clear sound.
The two most powerful people of the Sage State who were extremely astute, the pavilion master of the Heaven Dao Pavilion and the valley master of the Fu Xi Valley, had decided to help Fang Zhengzhi.
It was a miracle.
However, this came as no surprise to the sages and the disciples. They had already sensed the decision made by Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi.
However, at this moment, a beam of sword radiance flashed before them like a soaring purple dragon, preventing them from advancing further.
"What?!" Mo Shanshi and Mu Qingfeng were shocked. They knew that the sword radiance came from Fang Zhengzhi's traceless sword but they did not understand what was the purpose of that strike.
Nevertheless, they darted to both sides and felt the air above them vibrate violently.
Boom!
The purple sword radiance exploded above them. Then, a voice that sounded extremely angry could be heard from above their head.
"Fang Zhengzhi!" The angry voice was none other from Monster Emperor Baizhi. She was angry because she had stopped attacking Fang Zhengzhi, Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi.
From her point of view, she did not mind Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi to seek their own doom. After all, she would not suffer any loss from this.
In fact, she was more than happy because she could not only save her energy but also figure out the real powers of the Space-splitting Demon God.
However, Fang Zhengzhi's sword radiance had reached her…
And struck her.
Therefore, how would she not be angry?
"Trying to take credits for me? Scram!" While Monster Emperor Baizhi was angry and Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi were shocked, Fang Zhengzhi shouted wildly.
"Scram?"
"Credits?"
Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi glanced at each other and were evidently stunned. Why do Fang Zhengzhi need to be credited for? They could not believe it.
However, those words were said by Fang Zhengzhi. They had to believe the truth even if they did not want to.
"Dao Xin, leave with Yan Xiu. I would not forgive you if he suffers the slightest injury!" Fang Zhengzhi's voice could be heard again. Meanwhile, an evil purple light radiated from his traceless sword.
However, as compared to previously, the purple light on the traceless sword was not only evil but had drops of blood flowing on it.
The heinous killing intent was as frivolous as a dragon.
Dao Xin was stunned for a moment. Apart from her, Dao Hun who was watching from beneath and Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shanshi and Qian Yu who were standing nearby Fang Zhengzhi also changed their expressions.
That was right!
Fang Zhengzhi did not have the intention to escape!
Not only did he have no intention of escaping, but he intended to defend against the Space-splitting Demon God so that the rest could escape.
"Fang Zhengzhi, you…"
"You brat, what are you doing?!"
Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi could not believe it at all. How could anyone believe tht Fang Zhengzhi, being such a shameless person, did not have the intention to escape?
"Scram." Fang Zhengzhi smiled. He did not have the intention to be a hero, but he was very sure that Yun Qingwu would never let him off.
Therefore, why not be a hero again!
