”It's just one-half sage . At least it's not two, or three, or four . . . it's just one! The pressure . . . urgh . . . ” Fang Zhengzhi's lips twitched as he looked at Canyang . He regretted his decisions, but he couldn't back down now .
”Kill him, kill him!”
”Avenge our Young Master! Wipe clean the slate!”
”Die!”
”Die!”
The demons began screaming the moment they saw Fang Zhengzhi walking over . Their voices shook the earth .
On the walls of the Iron Hill Settlement . . .
Everyone was watching Fang Zhengzhi as he walked towards Canyang . All of them had an illusion . . .
They felt like he was extremely courageous and unafraid of death .
The entire world seemed to quieten down and time seemed to stop . All that was left was the figure on the battlefield .
Proud, calm, and unafraid of death .
However, this kind of aura and demeanor didn't seem to fit Fang Zhengzhi very well . As a result, they were all stunned by it .
They knew what Fang Zhengzhi was doing .
However . . .
When Fang Zhengzhi took the step out, they couldn't bring themselves to accept it .
”Why would such a shameless man, so afraid of death, become so courageous at such a critical moment?” Princess Shan Yu couldn't bring herself to believe that the fate of the Southern Region would rest on Fang Zhengzhi's shoulders .
She really wanted to ask Fang Zhengzhi her questions .
Why would he sacrifice himself? To what end? Money? Power? To appeal to a beautiful woman? What would it come to if he lost his life?
Courage, lack of fear, and pride .
These were all attributes respected by the people of the Southern Region .
However, she had not seen these attributes in a Southern Region soldier for many years . That was because she was strong, much stronger than most of the men around her .
But right now, Princess Shan Yu felt such an aura coming from that figure .
It was a strange feeling .
It made her want to tremble, and it also made her want to cry .
Then . . .
Princess Shan Yu 'cried' .
”Shameless, shameless person!” Princess Shan Yu's voice reverberated through the air, her tone filled with anger .
Shan Ling, as well as the other settlement chiefs, smiled bitterly when they saw the scene unfolding before them .
Because . . .
Fang Zhengzhi made a break for it .
After taking a few steps out, he immediately 'reverted' to his original self and sprinted towards the Iron Hill Settlement like a terrified bunny .
”Shameless!”
”Utterly shameless!”
”How does someone like this even exist in this world?!”
The Southern Region soldiers looked at the fleeing Fang Zhengzhi with fury in their eyes . They raised their spears at him .
Where did he come from?
He had just a.s.sured them that he would take care of it!
But now . . .
He just left Chi Guyan behind .
No matter how shameless a person was .
There had to be limits .
”Fang Zhengzhi, you shameless fella, how dare you leave me and Sister Yan in the lurch . I . . . I will never let you off!” Ping Yang was slightly touched when she saw Fang Zhengzhi step out, but he ran off soon after .
He had made a break for it so decisively too .
He had simply pushed Chi Guyan forward, ran around her, and headed straight for the settlement .
Most importantly . . .
He was screaming .
”Open the gates!”
”Open the gates!”
” . . . ”
This could not be tolerated!
Ping Yang wanted to kill Fang Zhengzhi .
Chi Guyan was also slightly stunned, her eyes filled with disbelief . However, she did not move .
She still had Yun Qingwu in her hands .
As such . . .
She could not move .
No matter what Fang Zhengzhi did, she had to stand her ground .
”Scram!”
”You coward!”
”The Great Xia does not have a coward like you! You do not deserve to be a part of us!”
The Dragon Protection Squad and the Mountain Breaking Army could not help but berate Fang Zhengzhi .
They were utterly disappointed in Fang Zhengzhi .
They felt like they had just been lied to .
If Fang Zhengzhi was afraid of death, he should not have tried to capture Yun Qingwu and have Chi Guyan battle Canyang .
He could have stalled for time in other ways .
But now . . .
What was with this attempted escape?
Isn't he just leaving Chi Guyan in the lurch?
And then there was Ping Yang .
Ping Yang was a princess, the most pampered one at that . Most importantly, she had just risked her life to save his .
The Dragon Protection Squad and the Mountain Breaking Army were furious . They were all embarra.s.sed by Fang Zhengzhi's actions .
How could they ever hold their heads up high if they a.s.sociated with someone like that?
”Father, the gates . . . ” Xing Qingsui was also smiling bitterly . He turned to look at Xing Yuanguo as he watched Fang Zhengzhi close in .
”Pa.s.s the order, open the gates!” Xing Yuanguo was focused on Fang Zhengzhi as he gave the order .
