...
Research had shown...
The younger the combatants, the more likely unorthodox fighting techniques would appear. They would bite ears, stomp on toes...
It was common for a fight between two five-year-olds to involve hair pulling. However, you would not expect that in a fight between two men in their twenties.
Their preferred method of fighting was a punch to the temples.
When one was even older, they would only strike when the moment was right. They focused on technique and opportunities.
Canyang...
Being an old demon with eons of experience, he would never think that his opponent would resort to such despicable techniques.
As such, he had not thought of defending some of the more sensitive areas.
That being said, being Canyang, he had great hearing and superhuman reflexes.
Fang Zhengzhi's attack would not succeed.
But it was enough to make Canyang break a sweat.
”Rubbish!” Canyang had never expected that Fang Zhengzhi would be capable of attacking an old man's privates.
The two of them were too close.
At this distance, there was no guarantee that he could block Fang Zhengzhi's attack.
Canyang was not going to risk it.
He chose to dodge it. He bent over and leapt upwards.
As he soared into the air...
He realized that there was something wrong...
He felt Fang Zhengzhi's expression change, almost as if Fang Zhengzhi was smiling...
In fact...
Fang Zhengzhi was smiling. This attack was a feint. He had no intention of attacking Canyang's privates.
He clenched his left hand...
The Vast World was now back in his grasp.
That was the true purpose of that attack.
Stealing a treasure back from the hands of a half sage was something worthy of celebration.
Fang Zhengzhi chuckled.
He had a chance now.
The demons, as well as the joint forces, couldn't help but chuckle too.
Because...
What they had seen was unbelievably strange.
That exclaim of 'rubbish!' had spread to their ears. More importantly, Canyang looked as though he had fallen for the trick.
When he leapt into the air, he had left The Vast World behind.
What the hell just happened?!
”That shameless fella! How dare he...”
All of the demon soldiers were furious. Their hero had just been humiliated by an attempted, despicable attack from their greatest enemy.
The soldiers of the joint forces smiled bitterly. They looked at each other, knowing full well that Fang Zhengzhi had no other choice.
That being said, that tactic was a despicable one...
The only question was...
Was Canyang hit?
”Good move! Shameless fella, great move!” Everyone was speechless, except for one person. Ping Yang's voice cut through the air.
Chi Guyan sighed as she saw Ping Yang's excited expression. She decided to limit Ping Yang's interaction with Fang Zhengzhi...
Ping Yang was much too impressionable.
Fang Zhengzhi was a bad influence.
Yun Qingwu's face was flushed as she looked at the interaction between Ping Yang and Chi Guyan. At that moment, many scenes flashed past in her mind.
Then...
For some reason, she felt pain in her chest.
”Despicable!” Yun Qingwu sputtered. Then, she immediately thought of something as she turned to Canyang, ”Master, you...”
She wanted to ask if Canyang was fine...
However, she swallowed her words, realizing that her question would be inappropriate.
”I'm fine!” Canyang could tell that Yun Qingwu was concerned about him. He shook his head but regretted his answer instantly.
That meant that, Fang Zhengzhi's attack...
Had hit!
Even Canyang blushed.
He wanted to explain himself, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.
He couldn't possibly announce to the world that Fang Zhengzhi had missed.
That would be utterly...
Embarrassing!
Fang Zhengzhi could not possibly explain either.
Whether that attack had hit was of no importance.
The important thing was that he had The Vast World in his hand. Right now, he had to figure out how to use it.
”The world in your heart will link with the vast world. It will consume the world!”
Just at that moment, a voice resonated through the air. It was extremely moving, almost like a nightingale's song.
Fang Zhengzhi was stunned.
He was utterly floored.
He had never expected Chi Guyan's voice to be this beautiful. Her voice now was like that of an angel.
Since when...
Was she that refined?
Was she using the power in her heart to activate The Vast World?
Would she die if she had said it any other way?
Fang Zhengzhi had no idea why Chi Guyan had adopted that tone, but he did not hesitate.
Canyang's expression changed.
It changed the moment he heard Chi Guyan's voice.
Canyang was not alone.
Yun Qingwu and all the other demons were equally shocked.
”Hum!”
Just at that moment, a loud hum rang out and a column of silver light shot skyward.
