”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 assured 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 embarrassed by Fang Zhengzhi's actions.
How could they ever hold their heads up high if they associated 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.
”Pass the order, open the gates!” Xing Yuanguo was focused on Fang Zhengzhi as he gave the order.
