“My surname is Dao, Xin is my name.” The lady did not hesitate much before gradually moving forward one step.
“Dao Xin? Indeed your surname is Dao?” Fang Zhengzhi's mouth quivered a little. Next, he raised his head lightly, gazing towards the horizon. Of course, he knew the meaning of the surname Dao. Even if the lady did not explicitly mention it, but as for her ident.i.ty, he had roughly understood it. “Indeed, I was too soft-hearted.”
“Soft-hearted?!”
“This punk dares to mention that he's soft-hearted? He really said it!”
“I have never seen such a thick-skinned shameless person!”
Upon hearing Fang Zhengzhi's words, the Yin Yang Hall disciples were all bewildered. They felt immensely disdainful towards him.
“Yes, you're indeed soft-hearted. But this is not necessarily a bad trait.” Lady “Dao Xin” did not seem to scornful, instead she nodded her head sincerely in agreement.
“…..”
“…..”
The Yin Yang Hall disciples looked at one another, before turning their attention towards Dao Xin. It seemed as though their faces were just struck with a tight slap, and that they were burning in pain.
Fang Zhengzhi did not continue saying much, because he did not know the motive of Dao Xin's appearance. As such, he was waiting, waiting for Dao Xin to continue talking.
And Dao Xin seemed to have understood Fang Zhengzhi's intentions, as she did not let him wait too long, “Ever since you came to Yin Yang Hall, there were a total of two and a half times where you were soft-hearted.”
“Two and a half times?” Fang Zhengzhi smiled slightly, and he felt as though even he did not quite understood when those instances were.
Furthermore, when did these two and a half times start from?
In reality, it was not only Fang Zhengzhi and the surrounding disciples, but Yin Yang Hall's Elders and even the Heavenly Oasis Saint who seemed to have not understood her.
“Yes, there were a total of two and a half instances. The first was when you were against me. You clearly knew that you had grabbed hold of me, and you could tell that I was of special status, yet you chose to act alone, and did not choose to threaten my life. This was your first instance.” Dao Xin opened his mouth.
Fang Zhengzhi did not respond.
However, upon hearing those words, the disciples were all flabbergasted. Amidst the shock, they felt angry and bewildered too.
“This punk dared to…..”
“Disgusting!”
“Definitely cannot keep him!”
The Yin Yang Hall Disciples were all feeling indignant. Furthermore, such anger was even more intense than before.
Dao Xin extended his hand at this point. She did not seem angry at all. Instead, she was calm and peaceful.
“The second instance was when you rushed out of the Thousand Herb Hall. If I did not guess wrongly, not only did you not take my life, you did the same for Fourth Elder, Fifth Elder and even Eighth Elder. Is that not true?” Dao Xin opened her mouth again.
Fang Zhengzhi remained silent, as he did not wish to admit such a happening. But the reality was that he had indeed shown them mercy.
When he had killed s.h.i.+ Fan at the bottom of the Heavenly Dao Pavilion, it was because s.h.i.+ Fan and Yuan Rong had used Yan Xiu as hostage, but Fourth Elder, Fifth Elder and Eighth Elder did not do that.
Fang Zhengzhi had kidnapped Dao Hun.
As such, Fourth Elder, Fifth Elder and Eighth Elder had no choice but to stop him. There was no personal rivalry between them.
“Did this punk really intentionally show them mercy?”
“I don't know…..”
“But it seems like there was such a possibility!”
Upon hearing till here, the Yin Yang Hall disciples finally had a change of expression. Afterall, as what Dao Xin had mentioned, Fang Zhengzhi had injured the three Elders, but he did not kill any of them.
“As for the last half instance, I think you should know what it is already.” As Dao Xin was opening her mouth, she looked towards Dao Hun who was on Fang Zhengzhi's shoulders.
And Fang Zhengzhi naturally knew what Dao Xin was referring to.
Half an instance?
How unreasonable!
“A month ago, at the bottom of the Heavenly Dao Pavilion, you had killed five Sages in a row. Everyone thought that you were killing indiscriminately, but I don't think so. In reality, without your half instance of being soft-hearted, I wouldn't be standing here talking to you.” Dao Xin did not wait for Fang Zhengzhi to respond.
“How do you want to talk?” Fang Zhengzhi asked.
“Firstly, I must admit that you're more capable that what I have thought. But you have lost this battle!” Dao Xin's tone was extremely confident.
“How do you tell?” Fang Zhengzhi responded.
“Because, your aim of coming to Yin Yang Hall was to save people, and not to kill them. However, you caused Yin Yang Hall to be a complete bloodbath, and you were unable to leave Yin Yang Hall yourself. How are you going to fulfil your aim?”
“You think I cannot leave Yin Yang Hall?”
“Yan Xiu is in my hands, how are you going to leave here?”
“Or maybe, I really shouldn't have shown you mercy.” Fang Zhengzhi clenched the Traceless Sword even more tightly, and his crystallised eyes s.h.i.+ning even more radiantly.
“Ok, if you had killed me earlier, maybe you could really have escaped from Yin Yang Hall. Although, is that really the result that you were looking for?” Dao Xin nodded her head.
“You're talking so much, what are you really trying to say? If you are trying to persuade me to let Dao Hun go, then I suggest you stop wasting your effort.” Fang Zhengzhi opened his mouth.
“Maybe, let's make a deal.” Dao Xin said.
“What deal?”
“I heard you posses the Dao of Yin Yang?”
“Yes!”
“Then you should understand the logic revolving around Yin and Yang. Everything in this world are of equilibrium, there is nothing that does not result in a return. Just like Yin and Yang, when there's Yin there will be Yang, when there's life….. naturally there will be death!” Dao Xin pointed out.
“Your meaning is, use my life, to exchange for Yan Xiu's one?” Fang Zhengzhi smiled revealed a smile on his face upon hearing Dao Xin's words.
“You're right!”
