Fang Zhengzhi wanted him to fight against Xing Tian?!

That was revenge, real revenge!

Nangong Mu hated it but he had no choice. He was surrounded in the golden haze by Fang Zhengzhi’s people.

He could not flee.

If he did not fight, he would die.

“Ah!!!” Nangong Mu roared furiously and his white tree branches of the Tree of God began to attack at Xing Tian furiously. Every tree branch hit Xing Tian like raindrops.

However, would Xing Tian be defeated by Nangong Mu?

Obviously not.

Xing Tian, with a gigantic shield on his left hand and a gigantic ax on his right, said to be the battle god, blocked Nangong Mu’s attack by placing his gigantic shield in front of his chest. He waved his gigantic ax and the tree branches turned into sparks of light immediately.

“This… Nangong Mu will definitely be defeated!” Mu Qingfeng was extremely confused because he did not understand what was the purpose of the plan?

Could it be just to take revenge on Nangong Mu? But that was so unnecessary?

Apart from Mu Qingfeng, Ping Yang was also confused by Fang Zhengzhi’s plan. However, she believed in Fang Zhengzhi and would not blame him even though he did this solely to take revenge on Nangong Mu.

…

Loud booms were heard from the golden haze.

Meanwhile, the Godly Beasts and Demons looked with a chilling gaze as they heard the continuous booms from the haze.

As long as the battle continued, the power of Fang Zhengzhi and the rest would deplete extremely quickly. After the thick golden haze disappeared, they would be able to kill Fang Zhengzhi and the rest.

“I can’t believe this few humans can last so long?”

“That’s right, but unfortunately, they won’t last much longer!”

“Haha…”

The Monster Race and Demon Race were waiting.

Meanwhile, the situation was becoming extremely violent on the battleground.

However, the situation was leaning in one party’s favor. Nangong Mu was struggling to last on but Xing Tian was way too powerful. His gigantic ax struck consecutively and the white Tree of God became smaller and smaller as a result.

It could be predicted that Nangong Mu would die soon.

“This can’t go on. Or else, Nangong Mu may really die!” Mu Qingfeng shook. Fang Zhengzhi’s plan was unthinkable.

Until now, he still did not understand what was the plan meant for.

He was about to attack.

However, Ping Yang blocked Mu Qingfeng directly with her hand.

“Pavilion Master Mu, believe in Fang Zhengzhi.”

“How so?” asked Mu Qingfeng again.

“All’s good as long as you believe.” Ping Yang was determined.

“…” Mu Qingfeng was silent. He believed Fang Zhengzhi but judging from the current situation, he could not find an excuse to continue believing in him.

Boom!

Nangong Mu shook. He could no longer last on and a large amount of blood spurted out like a fountain from the tree branches.

“I can’t believe that the descendant of Emperor Yan was so weak?” Fang Zhengzhi sounded like he was despising Nangong Mu.

As his voice was heard, Xing Tian’s body shook slightly and he paused his motion with the gigantic ax before he struck it again.

Boom!

Nangong Mu looked like he could no longer last on.

The White Tree of God completely turned into sparks of light and disappeared gradually. Meanwhile, he charged out from the white Tree of God in his real form instantly and fled towards where Fang Zhengzhi was at.

He was about to go all out.

Even if he died, he would drag Fang Zhengzhi along.

“Fang Zhengzhi, you don’t deserve to insult my ancestors!” A red light flickered in Nangong Mu’s eyes. He reached the golden haze in a blink of an eye.

Swoosh!

At this moment, a beam of sword radiance struck.

Without any doubts, this strike was made by Fang Zhengzhi. He managed to block Nangong Mu out of the golden haze with this sword and prevented Nangong Mu from entering.

“Emperor Yan is worthless. Even if he had descendants, none of them could change the world, why not let his bloodline end and just leave Emperor Huang’s bloodline from now on!” yelled Fang Zhengzhi.

“You…” Nangong Mu was extremely furious.

He was shaking with rage. His Origin Energy was almost depleted after the battle with Xing Yian. Now he definitely did not have the chance to fight with Fang Zhengzhi.

However, he was unwilling to die like that.

Moreover, he was insulted by Fang Zhengzhi.

However, what could he do?

Fang Zhengzhi was in front of him.

Xing Tian was behind.

The only thing he could do was to wait for the arrival of death, wait for Xing Tian to strike him and turn into a puddle of blood like the other Godly Beasts and demons.

Nangong Mu closed his eyes gradually.

However, for some reason, the moment of death which he had expected did not arrive. Xing Tian did not go to his back nor did he strike him with his gigantic ax.

“What’s going on?” Nangong Mu turned over as he made a guess, ‘Could it be that Xing Tian was afraid of approaching the thick golden haze?’

This thought was negated by him almost instantly.

That was because it did not make sense.

“You are the descendant of Emperor Yan?” A hoarse sound was heard. It was very deep but the enunciation of words could be deciphered.

“What?!”

“Xing Tian spoke? Hold on, he can speak more than the word ‘scram’?”

“…”

Mu Qingfeng, Ping Yang and the rest were evidently stunned.

Apart from them, Nangong Mu also froze on the spot. He looked at Xing Tian and the gigantic ax which he was holding onto.

“That’s right, he is a descendant of Emperor Yan, the only descendant!” Fang Zhengzhi’s voice was heard from the golden haze. He answered Xing Tian before Nangong Mu could.

“How can I believe that?” Xing Tian asked again with a deep voice.

“You should know that Emperor Yan had a seed that was able to grow into a Tree of God. The Tree of God you saw earlier on is formed from that seed,” replied Fang Zhengzhi.

“…” Xing Tian fell silent.

In fact, apart from Xing Tian, Ping Yang, Mu Qingfeng, Monster Emperor Baizhi, Yan Xiu and Chi Guyan all fell silent.

They did not hear wrongly!

Fang Zhengzhi was talking to Xing Tian.

Moreover, they were talking about something very simple. Nangong Mu was the descendant of Emperor Yan.

‘What’s going on?’

Why was Xing Tian so interested in this?

On the other hand, how did Fang Zhengzhi know that Xing Tian would definitely be interested in this? Unless the main point of this plan was Nangong Mu’s identity!

Wait a minute!

Identity!

Xing Tian was the Admiral of Emperor Yan!

In this world, there were not many records regarding Xing Tian. Only “An Ancient Handwritten Letter” had some records about the secrets of the ancient era.

No other records brought up the secrets.

“Brat, why are you so sure that Xing Tian would definitely not kill Nangong Mu? Also, how did you know the name of Changyang Mountain, who on earth are you?” said Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five.

He knew that Xing Tian was once the Admiral under Emperor Yan. However, he also knew that Xing Tian was sabotaged by Emperor Huang and Emperor Yan.

If that was the case…

Why would Xing Tian show mercy to Nangong Mu?

Did Fang Zhengzhi know more than himself?

Impossible!

That was impossible!

How would a pathetic human that was born thousands of years later know something that happened thousands of years ago and a relationship thousands of years ago better than himself?

“Because of one word — loyalty,” replied Fang Zhengzhi casually.

“Loyalty? But Xing Tian was about to betray Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang…” Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five did not understand.

“Who saw him betraying them?” asked Fang Zhengzhi.

“This…” Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five was stunned.

Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five had heard about Xing Tian’s intention to betray from Emperor Huang Xuanyuan. As for the details on the reason behind it and whether it was so he could take the position of the Emperor, he did not know at all.

But Fang Zhengzhi should not know too?

“I wasn’t sure about this initially but ever since you told me how Emperor Huang and Emperor Yan planned to bury Xing Tian’s head under the Changyang Mountain, I thought of another possibility,” said Fang Zhengzhi again.

“What possibility?” asked Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five.

“Since we have confirmed that the Heaven Zen Mountain is the Changyang Mountain of the ancient era, and there must be something under the mountain. Moreover, if Xing Tian can’t die, then can’t we seduce that everything is a plot?”

“What plot?”

“Xing Tian is guarding the secret.”

“Didn’t you mention this earlier on?”

“Yes, since Xing Tian’s existence is only to protect a secret, did he really want to betray Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang? Or rather, even if he really wanted to betray, was he planning to betray Emperor Huang Xuanyuan or Emperor Yan, or both?” asked Fang Zhengzhi again.

“You mean…” Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five’s expression changed.

That was because if Fang Zhengzhi was right, this incident was too shocking that he could not believe it himself.

Xing Tian did not betray!

That meant that Xing Tian was trapped on the Changyang Mountain because of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang!

But why?

Why did they trap their General in the Changyang Mountain?

“Actually, these are all my speculations. I am not certain and that’s why I said I only have 50 percent of confidence. However, now, I think I am right!” Fang Zhengzhi smiled.

Even in this situation, Xing Tian did not kill Nangong Mu. This meant that Xing Tian had never betrayed his master, Emperor Yan.

Of course, there was another possibility.

That would be how although Xing Tian betrayed Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang, he still missed them and did not bear to kill the only descendant of Emperor Yan.

That was possible too.

“Xing Tian, you didn’t betray Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang back then, right?” Instead of explaining to Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five, Fang Zhengzhi asked again as he wanted to confirm his deduction.

“Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang? No, you are wrong, I swore to kill them!” replied Xing Tian.

“Swore to kill them? That’s strange.” Fang Zhengzhi frowned but stop probing further. Instead, he asked, “Tell me, what’s under the Changyang Mountain?”

“Under the… Changyang Mountain? Ah! My head, return me my head!” Xing Tian suddenly went wild when he heard this.

He waved both of his gigantic arms again. Loud booms were heard when he clashed his gigantic shield and gigantic ax together. It sounded like a thunderstorm.

Boom!

Boom!

“…”

The entire world seemed to be vibrating.

The bolts of lightning landed on Xing Tian’s gigantic shield and gigantic ax, producing extremely ferocious lightwaves.

“Oh no, Xing Tian is mad again.” Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five was surprised.

“Nangong Mu, hurry up and stop him. You are the only person who can control Xing Tian now. There must be some secrets under the Changyang Mountain, we can’t let Xing Tian die in the hands of Monster Race and Demon Race.” said Fang Zhengzhi immediately.

All he could do was to let Xing Tian recognize Nangong Mu. However, only Nangong Mu, the descendant of Emperor Yan, could control Xing Tian.

“You say I can control Xing Tian?” Blood trickled down the side of Nangong Mu’s mouth. His eyes were bloodshot and he looked extremely fierce because of his scars.

“That’s right… hold on, Nangong Mu, did you think that I was intentionally harming you earlier on?” Fang Zhengzhi was about to nod his head when he had a bad premonition.

“You mean you weren’t?” Nangong Mu sounded very cold.

“Stop fooling around, Nangong Mu. We are friends, why would I want to kill you? I was only taking a bet that Xing Tian would not kill you because you are the descendant of Emperor Yan.”

“So you threw me on him?” asked Nangong Mu.

“…” Fang Zhengzhi was speechless.

“Hahaha… Fang Zhengzhi, I have to thank you. You are very smart, you actually managed to guess that Xing Tian is controlled by me. Not bad, not bad at all!” Nangong Mu laughed extremely crazily.

“Nangong Mu, this is a special scenario. We are forced to do this. We have to collaborate to fight against the Monster Race and Demon Race!” said Yan Xiu.

“That’s right, Nangong Mu!” Ping Yang nodded immediately.

“Hmm, taking a risk with my life, this is indeed what you guys like to do!” Nangong Mu nodded and turned to look at Xing Tian. “Xing Tian, don’t you want your head? I can get it for you now but you have to help me kill all of them!”

“Head, my head… return me my head…” Xing Tian continued to shout.

“Xing Tian, do you hear me?” Nangong Mu yelled again.

“My head, no, I can’t get my head back, no… no… return me my head. As long as you can find my head, I can do anything for you,” shouted Xing Tian crazily.

“Very good!” Nangong Mu sneered and began to move. He dashed down towards the foot of the Changyang Mountain.

“Oh no!” Fang Zhengzhi’s expression changed instantly

“What’s wrong?” Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five was stunned.

“Xing Tian’s head… can’t be taken out! Quick, stop Nangong Mu now!” As Fang Zhengzhi said that, he leaped down from Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five’s back.

He was extraordinarily fast.

He sprang towards Nangong Mu.

Nangong Mu completely ignored him and chanted continuously, “Water gives wood, wood gives fire, fire gives soil, soil gives gold, gold gives water, open!”

“Boom!” A loud boom was heard before gigantic tree branches emerged from the soil, cracking the ground.
