Chapter 247: Turn of events

”You're lying! 12 years ago, I was only three years old. Saying that I killed their king is an insult to their king! Or... do you have a guilty conscience?” Fang Zhengzhi's gaze became sharp and icy.
He had expected Shan Jia's response.
It was only reasonable for Shan Jia to respond that way. Shan Jia was actually not the guilty party. However, who cared about that? Fang Zhengzhi was just waiting for that response.
”Aroo!” The one thousand Blue Fire Wolves howled after hearing what Fang Zhengzhi said. This time, their howls were filled with fury.
As beasts who lived in a herd, their intelligence was much greater than those of other beasts. They had quickly come to a decision on who was lying.
”Imagine if i had killed their king, wouldn't I have even less incentive to show his hide and speak out about the incident? Do you really think that these are mindless wolves who will be controlled by you?” Fang Zhengzhi said deliberately as he saw the raging pack.
The eyes of the 1000 Blue Fire Wolves turned red in that instant.
Shan Jia's expression also changed.
He had no idea that the Blue Fire Wolf King was killed. He also did not expect that Fang Zhengzhi would use its hide to frame him.
He felt incredibly wronged.
He felt like the monk who knew that the kid in the lady's womb was not his. However, after the baby was born, a blood test revealed that it was a match to his.
Was there anything more ridiculous than this?
F*ck!”
This is ludicrous!
Shan Jia wanted to explain himself, but he did not know how.
The thousands of soldiers were stunned by this turn of events. All of them looked towards Fang Zhengzhi.
”Did Shan Jia really kill the Blue Fire Wolf King?”
”If that is so, this is a great chance for us!”
The soldiers did not know if Fang Zhengzhi was telling the truth. However, they were inclined to believe him. After all, like what Fang Zhengzhi said, he was only three years old 12 years ago.
Killing the Blue Fire Wolf King at three?
Is that possible?
Of course not.
Fang Zhengzhi ignored the surprise of the soldiers. He continued to motion with his limbs. He wanted to strike whilst the iron was hot.
He would keep going, suffocating Shan Jia until he had gotten what he wanted.
”I still have other evidence, would you like to see it? It has to do with the Tri-horn White Rhinoceros, the Steel Limb Golden Ape, and the Torrential Thunder Lions. Which one would you like to see first?” Fang Zhengzhi continued before Shan Jia could reply.
”That's impossible!” Shan Jia's eyes turned red. He had chased all four of the kings away in four different directions.
His sole intent was to prevent them from interacting with each other.
Even if Fang Zhengzhi could get his hands on the Blue Fire Wolf King hide, how could he possibly have those of the other three?
Shan Jia did not believe it.
However, if Fang Zhengzhi clearly did not have it, why would he announce it so loudly? Is he not afraid that his lies will be torn apart?
Or...
”Not good!”
Shan Jia suddenly remembered something. He subconsciously tried to run, but it was too late. A purple light had hit his body, and there was a ray of black light hidden within it.
That was a lethal strike.
”Sh*t!”
Before he could say anything, a large black sword had already pierced his heart, sending blood splattering everywhere.
Shan Jia's eyes widened as the life slipped from him.
He finally understood what Fang Zhengzhi was trying to do, but it was too late. He could feel the energy exit his body in that instant.
”Oh... I see... ahem...” Shan Jia coughed up a mouthful of blood as he glared at Xing Yuanguo. His eyes were filled with pain and unwillingness. However, there was also a subtle glint of relief, almost as if a load had been taken off his shoulders.
”Shan Jia, aren't you going to say anything before you die?” Xing Yuanguo's eyes glimmered.
It was not difficult for someone as powerful as him to sneak an attack on Shan Jia. Furthermore, Shan Jia was flustered, his concentration fully on Fang Zhengzhi.
Xing Yuanguo would never let an opportunity like that slip by.
”Haha, you want to know the Southern Mountain Range's... attitude towards the Great Xia Dynasty? If you want to know... go... go take a look for your... yourself...” Shan Jia's eyes closed before he could finish.
Even at the point of death, he still did not know why his plan had failed.
He had put in so much effort to set up Cang Ling Mountain and absorb it into The Vast World. He had also made all of the beasts his subordinates.
Each of the 1000 Blue Fire Wolves were at the Divine Seal State. The Steel Limb Golden Ape were incredibly agile, the Tri-horn White Rhinoceros were powerful, and the Torrential Thunder Lions were ferocious...
More importantly, with his training, these beasts could form powerful magical formations. Even if there were many times the number of soldiers, they would still die.
What had gone wrong?
The Blue Fire Wolf King...
How could he have been killed by a three year old kid 12 years ago? Why? All of the villages at the foot of Cang Ling Mountain were all ordinary villagers. No matter how many of them there were, it would be impossible for them to kill a Blue Fire Wolf King!”
”Dong!” Shan Jia's head hit the ground.
”Aroo!”
”Aroo!”
”...”
”Roar!”
”Aroo!”
All of the beasts, from the Blue Fire Wolves to the Torrential Thunder Lions, were in chaos. Each of them howled and roared continuously.
They seemed to be honoring their dead kings, as well as praying after Shan Jia's death.
Those were sounds of sadness and anger.
What would a raging army of beasts do? Xing Yuanguo, Bai Xiang, even every member of the Red Pinion Squad and the Mountain Breaking Army knew.
Fang Zhengzhi did not.
