Chapter 240: Sage
Fang Zhengzhi had many questions that he wanted to ask. However, there somethings were more important than others.
Whilst finding out why Ping Yang was in the camp and why Chi Guyan was so nervous was important, getting out of the camp was even more pressing.
Fang Zhengzhi felt that he had the responsibility to clear the path now that Chi Guyan was injured.
However, Ping Yang didn't plan to give him that chance. Even though a Star Conglomerate cultivator was not powerful in the imperial examinations, she was like a death G.o.d inside the army camp.
”Hahaha... who dares to stand in my way!”
Ping Yang was much less refined than Chi Guyan.
She chuckled as she barged through the camp.
Before long, Fang Zhengzhi, Chi Guyan, and Ping Yang had broken through the gates of the camp and dashed into the darkness...
Night time on Cang Ling Mountain was not as serene as one would expect. People worked in the day whilst beasts roamed the night. Most of the carnivores were nocturnal creatures.
Ever so often, one could hear the howls and roars of beasts, even the cries of prey. There were clearly some intense battles under the shroud of night.
Fang Zhengzhi had hunted in these lands since he was seven. He knew it like the back of his hand.
He was probably the most knowledgeable about this place amongst everyone in all the surrounding villages. He knew where the beasts were and where it was safe.
As a result, the three of them had a pretty smooth journey.
The beasts that they met were all herbivorous. They only ones of concern were a large green horned goat. A visibly excited Ping Yang lunged and grabbed the goat, kicking it viciously...
Before long, the green horned goat was knocked unconscious.
Ping Yang was still uncontented.
”The beasts on this mountain are too gentle. Are there no powerful ones?” Ping Yang was still unsatisfied as she looked at Fang Zhengzhi.
Fang Zhengzhi just gave her the middle finger.
”Is your brain damaged?”
”What do you mean?” Ping Yang fumed.
Fang Zhengzhi simply looked at Ping Yang condescendingly, not bothering to explain it to her.
Ping Yang pouted and readied herself to hit Fang Zhengzhi. However, upon seeing the paling Chi Guyan, she stopped herself.
After barging through the army camp, they continued walking, almost to the edges of Cang Ling Mountain. During this time, Chi Guyan swallowed a green pill.
Color rushed back to her face, but it was still much paler than before.
Fang Zhengzhi could tell from this that Chi Guyan had probably not entered the Supernatural State. If she had, why would she need the help of pills to heal?
Even so, what had happened just now? Why was Chi Guyan injured all of a sudden? Furthermore, the injury looked quite severe...
”Sister Yan, it's my fault. If not for the fact that I appeared all of a sudden and forced you to hold back, you would not have been injured.” Ping Yang felt extremely guilty as she looked at the paling Chi Guyan.
”It has nothing to do with you.” Chi Guyan shook her head.
”Why not we descend the mountain first? We can rest at the Northern Mountain Village or Huai An County. Afterall, the issue with the Heaven Dao Sage Tablet is not pressing!” Ping Yang suggested.
Fang Zhengzhi was stunned when he heard what Ping Yang said
Heaven Dao Sage Tablet?
What is that?
”Since we are here, we should take a look before descending.” Chi Guyan shook her head lightly as she glanced at Ping Yang and Fang Zhengzhi.
”Shall we find a place to rest first then?” Ping Yang pointed to a huge rock up ahead as she supported Chi Guyan by her arms.
”Mm...” Chi Guyan hesitated for a moment before nodding.
