Fang Zhengzhi wanted to scream out loud . He had been maligned . He was just doing what any man would do in a dream, but it had resulted in tragedy .
Reality?
Dream!
He was just understanding a major Dao in the Heaven Dao Sage Tablet a moment ago . And now, he had been stabbed?
The change was too quick!
Anyone else in the same position would not have been able to differentiate dream from reality .
As such, Fang Zhengzhi's actions were understandable .
Who hadn't fantasized before?
Any normal man would know to control himself in the real world . However, why would he continue to hold back in a dream?
Fang Zhengzhi was a normal male, and he did something that any normal man would do . The only mistake he made was that the transition between a dream and reality . . .
Was too quick .
At that moment, Fang Zhengzhi had thought that Yun Qingwu had appeared in his dream . In fact, it was all real .
There was a very simple example to explain his situation .
Imagine that you dreamt of a beautiful lady, then, just as you were about to confess to her, you were woken . The first person you saw was your male roommate .
Then . . .
You couldn't possibly be called a gay just because of that right?
Of course, only you would know if you were gay . But, at the very least, when you were about to confess to the lady, you were not!
Okay .
That was not the point . The main issue here was that Fang Zhengzhi was still bleeding and there were over 100,000 people staring at him .
No one was rus.h.i.+ng to save him!
He was bleeding!
Was the world so cold?
Weren't humans supposed to work together against the demons? Weren't they a team? Why are they all so shocked?
Haven't they seen something like that before?!
F*ck!
Fang Zhengzhi finally understood that he could only truly depend on himself . Everyone below was useless .
He had two choices . He could fight Yun Qingwu on the cliff and kill her after an intense battle . Then, he would probably die for his wounds .
The humans would not react in time, and by that time, the demons would have responded .
The dozens of demon elites, Bai Xing, and Wu Ji were all rus.h.i.+ng to the top of the cliff .
What did they want?
There was no need to guess .
His second option was to escape and dress his wounds . Then, he would capture a few people to test their blood or get some sort of pill to heal himself .
There were so many people here anyway .
As an ambitious youth, he decided to choose the latter . This wasn't because Fang Zhengzhi was afraid of dying .
The real reason was that he respected the ladies .
Mm . . .
After all, he had just molested this lady in front of more than 150,000 soldiers . To raise his sword and kill this lady right after would be vicious .
He could not bring himself to do it .
Even if the lady was the young master of the demons .
What did that have to do with him?
Fang Zhengzhi wanted to live a leisurely life . He had no interest in being involved in the battle between humans and demons, nor the battle between empires .
The only reason why he came to the Southern Region was to save Yan Xiu . If he could do well and rank highly in the court examination, that was a bonus .
Who wouldn't want to win a prize?
That being said, he had no intention of sacrificing his life for that prize .
The only thing Fang Zhengzhi wanted to do was live . He did not want to kill the young master of the demons in front of so many people . . .
G.o.d knows how the demons in the Blood Shadow City would react!
Was he going to beg for protection?
Fang Zhengzhi had seen too much of this kind of situations in his previous world . The Emperor would be glad that he killed Yun Qingwu . There would be a huge celebration and he would be promoted and rewarded with silvers . Then, he would be left to fend for himself .
Protection? What kind of protection?!
Fang Zhengzhi could probably spend the rest of his life hiding out in the capital .
But what about the Northern Mountain Village?
His family was still there, and he had to think about his parents and the hundreds of villagers .
After all, if he really killed the young master of the demons, he would not put anything past them .
Fang Zhengzhi did not want to live his life in fear just for this moment of glory .
He decided to leave this glory for someone else .
At the very least, at his current power, he did not want to stick his hand into this hornet's nest .
The main problem now was how he was going to ensure a safe retreat .
Turn and run? There were dozens of demon elites, as well as Bai Xing, chasing him down . Where was he going to run to? Fang Zhengzhi had to think of something easier .
He had to find a hostage . To be exact, he would take the most powerful demon here as the hostage .
”Tell them to stay where they are, all I will kill you where you stand!” Fang Zhengzhi growled ferociously .
”Kill me?” Yun Qingwu's lips parted, her anger turning into mockery . Then, she raised the Spectre Sword in her hand .
The rain beat down on that white light as the sword continued to exude an icy aura .
