第四百五十三章一场黑雨

Shan Ling was furious .

He really was . . . he was on the cusp of victory! What the h.e.l.l happened? He was betrayed by Fang Zhengzhi!

Hang on . . .

Could it be . . .

His expression changed when he thought about it . . . he seemed to have forgotten one thing .

He had thought that he could protect the Southern Region and destroy Fang Zhengzhi in the process . But, he forgot to account for Fang Zhengzhi's thoughts .

What if . . .

Fang Zhengzhi had been thinking the same thing?

Fear, unparalleled fear . . .

Shan Ling looked at the settlement chiefs around him . He realized that he was in a situation in which he had no control over .

He was just like a lamb being sent to the slaughter!

”Wait . . . why . . . is Xing Yuanguo here?” Shan Ling spotted a figure in purplish golden robes out of the corner of his eye .

He was shocked .

He could understand Fang Zhengzhi transporting the Southern Region soldiers into The Vast World, but why do that to Xing Yuanguo, the Dragon Protection Squad, and the Mountain Breaking Army?

What is going on?

Was he rebelling?

Even if he wanted to rebel, this wasn't the way to do it!

Shan Ling looked at Xing Yuanguo, his eyes filled with questions .

Xing Yuanguo shook his head in exasperation . He knew that he was in The Vast World . However, he showed none of the anger Shan Ling did .

He was just a little . . .

Embarra.s.sed .

”I think . . . this guy's understanding of the statement is slightly problematic!” Xing Yuanguo was otherwise speechless .

This was the second time he had been consumed by The Vast World . However, this time was different . . .

Xing Yuanguo looked at the tall tree in the middle of the battlefield as well as the b.l.o.o.d.y field strewn with dead bodies .

The situation was different . . .

Ordinarily . . .

The activation of The Vast World came with a choice .

For example, on Cang Ling Mountain, the Demons chose to absorb the people and beasts on Cang Ling Mountain .

However, Cang Ling Mountain still existed .

The mountain, as well as its trees and rivers, were not absorbed .

But this time was different, Fang Zhengzhi had absorbed the entire field, together with the Iron Hill Settlement .

The biggest consequence was . . .

The boundaries were limited .

In other words, The Vast World would have been sufficient to contain the entire demon army . . . but now, he could not absorb the entire army . . .

The result was obvious . . .

Only about 100,000 Demons were contained in The Vast World .

That being said, The Vast World still contained more than 100,000 soldiers . The joint forces were absorbed as well .

But now . . .

What were they going to do?

Fight it out again here?

Xing Yuanguo wanted to say something, but he was at a loss for words . He could explain the situation to the Dragon Protection Squad and the Mountain Breaking Army, but how was he going to deal with the Southern Region soldiers?

Call it a misunderstanding?

Who would believe him?

”I'm sorry, it's a misunderstanding!” Just at that moment, a voice rang out in the sky . However, the apology was far from sincere . . .

In fact . . .

Fang Zhengzhi sounded excited .

To be honest, he was really excited .

He did not bother about the fact that only a portion of the demon army had been absorbed, neither did he bother about how he was going to get the others out .

The only thought he had was . . .

What's done is done . . .

So they should just talk it out whilst they were inside here . A little saber-rattling could work too .

Either way . . .

They couldn't do anything to him!

That was Fang Zhengzhi's att.i.tude right now .

Shan Ling could hear the insincerity in Fang Zhengzhi's voice . He wanted to curse and swear, but in the end, the words that came out were . . .

”It's alright, since it is a misunderstanding, I will hear what your plans are, Official Fang!” Shan Ling didn't dare to cuss at Fang Zhengzhi .

The settlement chiefs and the soldiers were initially stunned . They looked at each other in confusion, but they quickly realized what Shan Ling was doing .

”We will do as you wish, Official Fang!” They replied in unison .

Xing Yuanguo was slightly taken aback when he heard this . He simply smiled bitterly . . .

”Official Fang? Crown Prince, are you alright? I remember that you wanted to kill me back at the Sagely Mountain City . ” Fang Zhengzhi's voice boomed .

”Misunderstanding haha . . . that was also a misunderstanding!” Shan Ling grit his teeth .

”Oh I see, then I guess we are even now . We have both caused each other some misunderstanding, but that's water under the bridge now . ” Fang Zhengzhi replied magnanimously .

”Thank you, Official Fang!” Shan Ling's knuckles whitened . He had initially wanted to thank Fang Zhengzhi for being so 'magnanimous' but decided against it .

”No need for that . Perhaps you could give me a few boxes of pearls and gems when I leave as a gesture of goodwill!” Fang Zhengzhi pressed .

”Definitely!” Shan Ling's eyes were bloodshot .

He couldn't understand what was happening . Fang Zhengzhi was the one who had put him in this position, yet he was the one apologizing now?! How shameless could a person possibly be?!

And then there was the extortion!

He was the Crown Prince of the Southern Region!

Most frustratingly, he was in no position to reject Fang Zhengzhi's requests .
