608 You Are Not Worthy of Dignity (1/2)
Fang Zhengzhi naturally knew what the Heavenly Oasis Saint was thinking about. He was using wealth and the dangers of the outside world to make Fang Zhengzhi succumb to him.
This was a commonly used psychological tactic.
When a person was exposed to the dangers of the outside world, he would feel unsettled. If someone were to offer him a hand into the Shadow Sect who possessed great wealth and power at that exact moment…
Would anyone reject the offer?
That seemed impossible.
However, Fang Zhengzhi rejected it. He had to do so every single day for an entire year and did so without any hesitation every time.
The reason was simple. The conditions were not satisfactory.
In exchange for the wealth and power, Fang Zhengzhi had to stay loyal to the Shadow Sect and deem its goals as his responsibilities, even to the point of dying for the organization.
Naturally, the Shadow Sect could fulfill many of his wishes, such as anything related to wealth and power. More importantly, Wu Yuer might agree to Fang Zhengzhi's proposal.
He would live a comfortable life.
However, this was unacceptable to Fang Zhengzhi.
Wu Yuer might not even accept him. She would merely consider.
Fang Zhengzhi was a man with pride. How could he allow himself to suffer the disgrace of marrying into a more wealthy family? He rejected it without a second thought.
The result was clear.
Fang Zhengzhi would help the Shadow Sect from the shadows and help them achieve the dream of a business empire. He would devise plans that would maximize the benefits on the end of the Shadow Sect.
The Shadow Sect would then become Fang Zhengzhi's greatest aide, providing him with information.
This was also a type of equivalent exchange.
However, what lay beyond the new gate? The Heavenly Oasis Saint would not reveal them no matter what. Furthermore, there was a limit to the amount of information the Shadow Sect could provide.
Putting it simply, if Fang Zhengzhi wanted more money, he could get them. However, he must first show that he was capable of earning them. It was a new form of cooperation.
In Fang Zhengzhi's words, its called a mutually beneficial situation.
He was satisfied with this result.
However, the Heavenly Oasis Saint was not happy with this arrangement. This was especially so after Fang Zhengzhi had continuously shown his capabilities in raking in resources and benefits for the Shadow Sect, allowing him to gain more benefits along the way.
But Fang Zhengzhi was not an easy target as well.
Fang Zhengzhi had had many encounters with such ”low-level” tactics in the past. How could he fall into such a trap?
As what the Heavenly Oasis Saint had said, the Shadow Sect was not the strongest force.
Since there was more to be desired, why would he want to join them?
Furthermore, Fang Zhengzhi loved his current free and unbounded lifestyle. Why would he want to be tied down by the Shadow Sect and even swear his life to an organization?
That was what Fang Zhengzhi thought in the past.
However, those thoughts were slowly changing.
A Dragon Slayer Slash that had been powered up over ten times only managed to deal some minor internal injuries to this woman named Cang Yue. What is the deal with this Ling Yun?
Boom! A rumble could be heard.
The flowing milky way came to a stop and stopped right in front of Ping Yang. The stars glimmered while they stood still in their positions.
Cang Yue's hand stopped.
She was looking at Ping Yang. More specifically, it was the speckle of light in Ping Yang's eyes, the brilliance that shone through the darkness.
As Cang Yue stared at the speck of light, it expanded in size, illuminating the darkness.
”What is going on?”
”It stopped?”
”It finally stopped!”
Cold sweat formed on the foreheads of the soldiers from the Mountain Breaking Army and Yan Cloud Calvary. The moment they saw Cang Yue attacking Fang Zhengzhi, they thought they were going to witness another tragedy in one night.
However, Cang Yue stopped attacking. The expression on her face seemed extremely serious.
Ping Yang's chest heaved as fear overwhelmed her. She bit her lips in apprehension, causing a drop of blood to fall from her lips.
”Scram!” Cang Yue's voice was cold. However, she did not intend to launch another attack.
No one knew why Cang Yue would suddenly stop her assault.
Wasn't she here to kill Ping Yang?
