Chapter 370: We Finally Meet (2/2)

Wu Feng knew these. Hence, he had initially assumed that he would definitely surpass Yan Xiu in the combat examination. Because, during that time, he would have already occupied two territories and possessed two armies of soldiers.

However, in the blink of an eye.

When they met again, he had already become an eliminated scholar. Furthermore, he had almost been assassinated by the demon race in such an unbearable manner.

And when he looked at Yan Xiu?

He was standing on the cliff wall, waving his paper fan slowly. With one strike, he caused the six demons who were initially about to escape to fall onto the ground. How could Wu Feng be happy when met with that superior sense of coldness?

Compared to Wu Feng's dissatisfaction, Chen Feiyu clearly took more initiative.

Before this, he had never understood the reason behind why Fang Zhengzhi shot an arrow towards him. However, when Wu Feng tore off Young Master Li's skin mask, he was completely enlightened.

However…

He wasn't Wu Feng. He didn't understand the Dao of music, hence, he naturally couldn't make himself useful.

However, everything was different now. The six demons had been taken down by Yan Xiu. Hence, if he didn't take his revenge now, he would really not be Chen Feiyu anymore.

Chen Feiyu pounced forwards.

He felt that this was the true opportunity for him to rise to fame. He decided to fight the six of them at one go, then, demonstrate to everyone the power of his Supernatural State. This will make them deeply understand one thing…

Chen Feiyu had reached the Supernatural State!

Fang Zhengzhi didn't seem to have any intention of stopping Chen Feiyu. Instead, he slowly kept the sword in his hand back into his robe, then, waved his hands towards Yan Xiu, who was standing on the mountain wall.

The fate of the six demons naturally didn't need any further elaboration.

They were indeed of the Supernatural State. However, when they were forced out of the wind valley by the combined power of the scholars and landed in the middle of the combined assault of almost a thousand soldiers, they were clearly unable to escape as easily as before.

Most important, Teng Shisheng and the rest also participated in this battle. Because, the warriors of the Southern Mountain Range had to take revenge for fellow Southern Mountain Range warriors.

Chen Feiyu of the Supernatural State, in addition to Teng Shisheng of the Supernatural State, the large group of scholars, five hundred Silver Horned Wolves and over forty thousand soldiers. The outcome of this battle was already predetermined.

Without much further ado, the six demons were taken down. After taking one final stare towards Fang Zhengzhi, the six demons exchanged glances.

They preserved their last possible bit of pride.

Suicide!

Chen Feiyu laughed. Because, he felt that his performance was rather impressive. However, he didn't hear the congratulatory cries from the surrounding scholars.

”What is it now?” Chen Feiyu was somewhat confused. He wanted to ask, is everybody here blind? Don't tell me that you didn't notice my powers are already completely different from the past?

However, in reality, there was really not a single person who praised him.

Or, it could be said that nobody paid too much attention to him.

The reason behind this was very simple. When a group of people surrounded six demons and fought with all their powers, who would be so free as to pay attention to what techniques others were using?

There was only one thing on everybody's minds. That was, what technique I should use!

…

The wind slowly began to blow.

Because, after the bodies of the six demons were moved, the forty over thousand soldiers slowly exitted the wind valley and walked towards a huge fortress rooted to the ground.

That was the Icy Monkey Settlement, one of the Southern Mountain Range's six main settlements.

Gigantic, snow-white rocks filled the scenery, just like the frost on the two cliffs of the wind valley, encompassing a chilliness that troubled people's hearts.

A huge black cloud slowly pressed down towards the Icy Monkey Settlement.

In front of this black cloud, there were two people. Two people who journeyed shoulder to shoulder. One was wearing a leopard skin robe, while the other wore a faint black robe.

Fang Zhengzhi didn't ask Yan Xiu why he came. Because, he knew that once news of his intention to attack the Icy Monkey Settlement was spread, Yan Xiu would definitely come.

Except, he had never imagined that Yan Xiu would come at such a right time.

Time flowed slowly.

The black cloud slowly began to stop.

A dull sound finally came from the main gate of the Icy Monkey Settlement. The massive gate opened gradually. However, after the gate was completely opened, there wasn't much soldiers coming out of it.

Or, it could also be said that…

There simply wasn't any soldiers.

Undoubtedly, this wasn't something very normal. Because, when faced with the force of an army, there were usually two methods. One was defense, while the other was offense.

Why would a defender open the main gate? Since the main gate was opened, that meant that they wished to face the enemy. Hence, under such circumstances, how could there not be a single soldier?

Was this the stratagem of the empty city?

Wu Feng glanced at the completely empty gate, and then glanced towards Fang Zhengzhi who was standing not too far away. Because, his memory of this scene was really too vivid.

Faced with Nangong Hao's empty city stratagem, what would Fang Zhengzhi do?

This was Wu Feng's instinctive thought. Because, he really wanted to know what would Fang Zhengzhi do when he met with a situation similar to that of his own.

However, in reality, when Fang Zhengzhi saw the main gate of the Icy Monkey Settlement open, his expression didn't even change much. Instead, he quietly observed the main gate.

Finally…

The opening sound of the main gate stopped.

Closely following which, a figure slowly appeared at the main gate.

A youth dressed in a white scholarly robe whose expression didn't look too cold. However, it didn't seem too casual either. It was a form of brightness, one that shone as bright as a halo.

Obviously, the figure at the gate was Nangong Hao.

However, when the scholars saw Nangong Hao, their expressions clearly froze for a moment. Because, today, Nangong Hao indeed appeared somewhat strange.

This strangeness didn't originate from the expression on Nangong Hao's face. Instead, it was because there was no horse below Nangong Hao. Instead, he stood quietly on the ground.

Then, Nangong Hao moved.

Step by step, he walked over from the main gate of the Icy Monkey Settlement. His expression appeared extremely calm, as calm as a jade green lake.

However, the expressions of the scholars couldn't remain calm.

Because, they felt that if they were Nangong Hao, they would definitely not be as calm as he was now. At the very least, when faced with almost fifty thousand soldiers, they could never be as calm.

There was obviously nobody behind Nangong Hao.

Not a single person.

However, behind Nangong Hao's back, there was a sword. A sword that was slung horizontally across his body. The hilt of the sword was white. It was a shade of white that was as white as the snow.

The scabbard was also white.

However, compared to the hilt of the sword, the white of the scabbard was even more crystalline. It was a shade of white that was like that of ice. It was an extremely transparent white, and was extremely dazzling.

”We finally meet.” Nangong Hao looked towards Fang Zhengzhi, who stood in front of the army, and then looked at Yan Xiu, who stood shoulder to shoulder beside Fang Zhengzhi, and greeted them calmly.
