Chapter 878: Who the Hell Stripped My Clothes Off
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
This happened so suddenly that it was almost weird. After all, Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shanshi, and the rest didn’t even enter the 10-Sided Flaming Demonic Formation.
Who could have backstabbed Monster Emperor Baizhi at this moment?
Nobody could figure it out.
However, Baizhi was indeed flying. Furthermore, they could clearly sense that someone had kicked her.
As for where she was kicked…
It seemed to be her buttock.
That was because there was a faintly visible black footprint on her buttock when she was spinning in the air. It was covered with burnt ash.
“Footprint?”
“Black? Burnt ash?!”
Mu Qingfeng’s and Mo Shanshi’s heart skipped a beat at the same time and they glanced at each other intuitively. They could see the shock in each other’s eyes.
That was because there was only one person who had burnt ash on his foot and could have kicked Monster Emperor Baizhi at this moment.
Boom! A golden radiance shot into the sky from within 10-Sided Flaming Demonic Formation. It had a terrifying intense aura.
Light drove away darkness at this instance and the stars that filled the sky disappeared. The golden radiance had torn a massive opening in the darkness that engulfed the sky.
Sunlight and warmth descended.
Night had turned into day!
This was something that only Baizhi could have pulled off. However, when the golden radiance appeared, daytime returned once again.
“Fang Zhengzhi!”
“He’s alive?! Fang Zhengzhi didn’t die!”
“How is that possible?!”
Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shanshi, Qian Yu, and Yan Yin all opened their eyes wide with surprise because they already saw the slender figure in the golden radiance clearly.
That figure stood quietly in the golden radiance. The ash that had covered his body was blown away by the radiance, revealing his jade-like skin and toned muscles. His body was crystalline and his skin was even shimmering.
“He’s actually alive!”
“He really didn’t die!”
All the Sages and disciples were terrified and stunned when they saw Fang Zhengzhi bathing in the golden light.
He had swallowed the fruit of the Tree of God…
Yet he was still alive?!
‘Is he a monster?’
No one could wrap his head around this because this had never happened before.
In fact, even Yun Qingwu lost her composure when she saw Fang Zhengzhi, not to mention the rest.
That was right!
Even Yun Qingwu couldn’t believe it!
“Didn’t die… Fang Zhengzhi, you didn’t die…” Yun Qingwu rarely looked as surprised as she was at the moment. It was true that she couldn’t remain calm like she always did.
However, for some reason, there wasn’t too much fear in her expression. On the contrary, she looked somewhat excited.
As a woman, Yun Qingwu shouldn’t be staring intently at Fang Zhengzhi at this moment because he wasn’t wearing anything after all.
However, she didn’t avert her gaze.
That was because Fang Zhengzhi’s eyes had completely caught her attention. There wasn’t much radiance in his eyes, but they felt as vast and deep as the ocean to her. They looked calm, but there seemed to be a massive wave that could unleash its fury at any time hidden beneath the calmness.
“The tune wasn’t too bad!” Fang Zhengzhi was also looking at Yun Qingwu, and his lips slowly curled into a smile.
“Ah? What… Tune. Oh, I always play it…” Yun Qingwu replied instinctively but she quickly realized that it was inappropriate and held her tongue. Then, the surprise on her face disappeared and she quickly regained her composure.
“Do you always play it? That’s a pity, you’ve also said that the two of us don’t belong to the same side at the end of the day!” Fang Zhengzhi’s smile grew even brighter. At the meantime, a demonic purple light appeared in his hand.
It was Traceless Sword!
As soon as it had appeared in Fang Zhengzhi’s hand, the calm in his eyes disappeared and it was replaced by an aura that was as insane as a tsunami.
Buzz!
Buzz!
“…”
Ripples of shockwaves surged out of Fang Zhengzhi’s body and crashed into the surroundings like ocean waves. They lifted Yun Qingwu’s white dress and blown up the black cloaks of the Elders of the 10 Devilish Domains, revealing 10 old men with silvered hair.
Each of the elders had a Demon Eye on his forehead. However, they were completely gold instead of sangria.
Their golden Demon Eyes shone brightly and exuded a chilling air. They also represented the fact that the elders were all at Sage State.
Nevertheless, Fang Zhengzhi didn’t seem to care about that. He had been fixated on Yun Qingwu all alone and his smile grew brighter but colder.
He took a step forward.
The golden radiance that shot into the sky suddenly retracted and returned to Fang Zhengzhi like birds returning to their nests. Only the ripples of shockwaves remained.
“There’s a chance. We still have a chance!”
“That’s right. That brat is still alive, us humans aren’t defeated yet!”
“Fang Zhengzhi… I didn’t expect that the fate of mankind in this battle would ultimately depend on this boy. This is truly…”
Although Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi still couldn’t believe what they saw, they saw hope once again.
They couldn’t destroy the 10-Sided Flaming Demonic Formation because they were on the outside. However, Fang Zhengzhi was in the formation.
The formation would be destroyed as long as Fang Zhengzhi killed any of the 10 elders. Then, with the combined force of the five of them, they could definitely turn the tide of the battle.
“Hurry up, Fang Zhengzhi, kill the elders of the Demon race!” Although Yan Yin didn’t have a good impression of Fang Zhengzhi, that didn’t matter anymore. What was important was the fact that only Fang Zhengzhi could change the course of the battle, and Yan Yin had to accept that.
“Kill the elders of the Demon race?” Fang Zhengzhi naturally heard Yan Yin, so he subconsciously glanced at the elders of the Demon race who had their eyes wide opened with astonishment. Then, he looked at Yun Qingwu and her beautiful eyes again.
After that, he heard a wave of tsunami-like cries.
“Fang Zhengzhi!”
“Hurry up and kill them!”
“…”
They obviously came from the Sages and disciples below. The fact that they didn’t escape represented their desires for victory.
How could they not get excited now that Fang Zhengzhi, their beacon of hope, came back to life?
“A lot of people are missing.” Fang Zhengzhi casually glanced at the people below. Although he could obviously tell that a majority of the people were gone, he still sensed the anticipation in the remaining people’s eyes.
‘I knew that I’m always the man at the center of attention.’
Since Fang Zhengzhi was in the limelight, it was impossible for him to not feel good about himself, especially when he clearly felt Yun Qingwu’s intense gaze and the fear in the eyes of the Elders of the 10 Devilish Domains.
‘Alright, seems like it’s time for me to save the world!”
Fang Zhengzhi wasn’t a man with exceptionally high aspirations. However, he wouldn’t mind claiming this huge honor since it was right there for his taking.
However, he felt something wrong just as he was about to move because he sensed a chill at his groin when the mountain breeze blew past.
‘Eh?!’
Fang Zhengzhi looked downward intuitively and saw his glimmering body. He concluded that he was very handsome, but he didn’t know why he was completely naked.
“Who the hell stripped my clothes off!” Even though Fang Zhengzhi was shameless, he still blushed a little as he was filled with embarrassment.
After all, there were several hundred people staring intently at him from below, including even Qian Yu and Chi Guyan.
Bt the way…
There was Yun Qingwu too!
“…” Fang Zhengzhi wanted to curse.
“…” Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shanshi, and Yan Yin glanced at each other and they wanted to curse too. ‘Is this really the time for him to be bothered by that?’
Qian Yu’s lips twitched. She wasn’t the type to reprimand others for no reason. However, she really wanted to pull Fang Zhengzhi’s ear and yell at him, “What happened to your usual shamelessness? Why are you pretending to be embarrassed now?”
That was how Mu Qingfeng, Qian Yu, and the rest felt at the moment.
Meanwhile, the Sages and disciples below turned red. They really wanted to ask…
“Is this fellow really dependable?!”
Roar! Just then, they heard an angry roar in the sky, following which, a massive body appeared in the air and blocked all the light.
Monster Emperor Baizhi was enraged!
This was the first time that Monster Emperor Baizhi was so furious. As the renowned Monster Emperor, the strongest master of the Holy Region, and the Divine Beast Nine-Tailed White Fox, she had never been this humiliated before.
Twice…
The same person had actually kicked her and sent her flying twice!
Such humiliation was more infuriating than someone giving her a tight slap on the face. She was so outraged that her fur stood on end.
Baizhi pounced towards him without any hesitation.
There were a storm and lightning. Her two sharp claws exuded a metallic shine and their powerful aura even changed the weather.
“Fang Zhengzhi, watch out!”
“Litle bastard, get out of its way!”
Both Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi yelled. After all, Fang Zhengzhi carried all their hopes currently so they couldn’t help but be worried.
Monster Emperor Baizhi was too powerful
Furthermore, she was obviously furious and had turned into her monster form completely. In her current state, even the four of them wouldn’t dare to take her head on.
However, Fang Zhengzhi didn’t seem to have heard their reminders. The purple light on his Traceless Sword shone brightly and it didn’t look like he was about to dodge it.
“Die!” He yelled softly.
Then, Fang Zhengzhi flew. Not only did he not try to evade Monster Emperor Baizhi’s attack, but he also charged straight towards her.
“…”
“Brat, no!”
“No? Why not?” Fang Zhengzhi replied Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi with a disdainful expression. He thrust Traceless Sword forward and continued, “Her fox fur is great and perfect for making my clothes!”
“…”
Was there anything more absurd than hearing someone saying that he wanted to make clothes with a Nine-Tailed White Fox’s fur? No one knew the answer. However, both Mu Qingfeng and Mu Qingfeng shut up at this moment.
That was because they felt hopeless once again.
A person could overestimate himself.
However, overestimating himself to such an extent was just being wildly overconfident. These people’s fates did not tend to end well.
Their hope arose, only to be shattered once again.
Boom! They heard a loud bang and saw a dazzling golden radiance at the same time, as if a star had suddenly exploded, or if a massive wave suddenly exploded and turned into a violent tsunami that would swallow the world.
Then, the man and the beast that had collided against each other separated instantly. Amidst the golden radiance, the speed of their separation was extremely fast.
“Is he dead?!”
“No, it doesn’t seem like he died!”
“Was it a draw?!”
“How is that possible?”
“No… It doesn’t seem like a draw, he… He rushed upwards!”
The people’s hearts sank when they saw the two figures that split up. However, soon, they opened their eyes wide with surprise.
That was because one of the figures started charging upwards.
From down below!
It rushed up towards the massive figure at a faster speed along the same path and it was holding a massive lightning-like sword.
Purple light was flowing on the transparent sword. It was a projection, yet it looked real.
“Die!” He yelled softly once again.
It wasn’t too cold, but everyone felt like they were in a dream when they heard it. It was too unbelievable.
‘Is this a dream?’
‘Fang Zhengzhi actually blew Monster Emperor Baizhi away?!’
‘Furthermore, he is chasing after her?’
Slash! They heard a sharp noise and saw a dash of red falling from the sky like rain.
It was a ball of mist of blood that came from an inch above Baizhi’s sharp claw. There was a bone-deep wound.
Aww! Baizhi jolted and howled in pain.
