Chapter 888: A Strange Mistake

Nobody answered Fang Zhengzhi because the sculpture was motionlessly on the ground and did not appear to have any intention of standing up.

Of course, the actual reason was that nobody heard Fang Zhengzhi’s question.

After all, everyone’s train of thoughts had been disrupted and nobody could hear Fang Zhengzhi’s voice.

“Unless I need to change my sword? Soft sword, heavy sword… or immediately go for a wooden sword?” Fang Zhengzhi did not bother about others’ opinions, took a quick glance at his Traceless Sword before shaking his head. “Forget it, I shall not change. Even if I was to be lonely, I would leave it to nature.”

So, what should he do next?

Even the most powerful man who walked out of the Gate of God was stabbed dead by his sword. Doesn’t that mean Yun Qingwu’s plans had failed?

How miserable.

Fang Zhengzhi felt that he was too powerful. With his powers, how could anyone qualify to be his opponent?

As he lifted his head, he subconsciously took a glance at the two Gates of God that were still opened. He wondered if he should close these two useless gates.

Just as he was thinking about it…

A black spot appeared in his line of vision.

It was not big, but it was very black. It looked like a rock that was falling with extremely fast speed. Almost instantaneously, it landed at Monster Emperor Baizhi’s position.

“Eh? Another one?” Fang Zhengzhi was slightly shocked. However, he figured it out very soon. After all, there were two gates, hence it was no surprise for two of the “rocks” to fall out.

An ancient saying went, ‘newborn calves are not afraid of the tiger’. Yet besides this saying, there was another saying that was even more stylish that went, ‘boldness stems from superb skill’

Fang Zhengzhi belonged to the latter.

Since he had already killed one, it would not require much more efforts for him to kill the other.

Fang Zhengzhi was slightly nervous but he was not fearful. After all, he had already experienced success.

So, this time, how should he kill?

Stab him a few times, or straight away go for the head?

“What’s that?”

“Another powerful person arrived?!”

“Two?”

As Fang Zhengzhi was pondering over how he should do the killing to make it more meaningful, the sages and monster kings beneath finally regained their senses.

Of course, their mental strength was obviously weaker than the composed Fang Zhengzhi.

They were not the only ones…

Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shanshi, Qian Yu and Yan Yin’s expressions were rather exaggerated too, turning pale again.

“There’s nothing to fear about!” With a look of despise, Fang Zhengzhi tightened his grip on the Traceless Sword in his hand. He was ready to kill the second powerful man.

Boom!

A giant black rock that looked almost identical to the one previously fell. However, it landed about ten steps beside Fang Zhengzhi instead of in front of him.

Crack!

Lightning flashed and struck the giant black stone. It looked extraordinary and gave off a vibe as though it was split open by lightning.

“The way of appearance seemed to be slightly different?” Fang Zhengzhi was slightly confused but did not take it to heart.

After all, strictly speaking, anyone who fell out from the Gate of God deserves to be the so-called “powerful man”.

Boom!

Unlike the previous one, this giant black rock did not gradually peel open. Instead, it exploded completely when it landed on the ground.

Buzz! A strong vibration of heaven and earth was felt, as though the entire universe was about to break into pieces.

Wait a minute!

Something was amiss!

Looking at this scene, Fang Zhengzhi’s expression changed. The aura exuded was too powerful and gave off a strong sense of vitality, just like the green grass that grew exuberantly.

The aura from this explosion was even more terrifying than the aura from Monster Emperor Baizhi.

“Hahaha… I am back, finally back!” At this moment, laughter could be heard from the location where the giant black rock exploded.

Following that, the shape of a figure could gradually be seen.

Similarly, it was clad in black armor. However, the black armor had an extremely complicated pattern, was not stained with a single speck of dust and a light golden radiance flowed on it.

As compared to the previous sculpture which had a layer of dust, the face of this individual was much more clearer. Black eyes and narrow eyebrows, it gave a natural stern look that radiated from the core, exuding an invisible aura.

Most importantly…

On the forehead of this figure, there was a long golden vertical mark that looked like a closed eye, giving off a noble look.

“Demon!”

“A living demon!”

Almost instantaneously, the same thoughts popped up in everyone’s minds. It was an aura, a demon aura that exuded from the core.

“So this time it’s a living one?” Fang Zhengzhi was stunned for a moment as he stared at the figure that was ten steps away.

What on earth!

Where was the sculpture?

Shouldn’t all the powerful men who came out from the gates be stationary? What does it mean for a living and jumping one to suddenly appear?

Fang Zhengzhi looked at the powerful demons nearby, then looked at the sculpture beneath his legs who did not even breathe at all.

Suddenly, he realized something different.

For example…

The living one in front of him had an armor that looked new as ever, while the dead’s armor looked as if it had been used for countless of years.

Most importantly, the powerful man who had collapsed had a thick layer of dust on his face. Both his face shape and looks were extremely different from the strong demon in front of him.

The most obvious difference was the style.

When the sculpture first appeared, it had a very powerful but extremely different style, but the style was more of charisma than the coldness that the powerful demon exuded.

What was going on?

“It feels so good to… breathe again!” The powerful demon said again. He did not seem to notice what was happening around him but was still immersed in the excitement of “rebirth”.

“Demon Deity!”

“Welcome Demon Deity!”

After hearing the voices, the elders of the demon race who were sent flying regained their senses and knelt on the ground without hesitation.

“Hmm, you must be the ones who woke… Eh? This armor and this face… Sigh, why did ‘Jiang Ji’ die here?” The powerful demon nodded his head and looked at the few elders of the demon race. However, he soon noticed the sculpture that collapsed on the ground and was evidently surprised.

“Jiang Ji?”

“The powerful man who died is called Jiang Ji?”

“His surname is Jiang?!”

After hearing the words by the powerful demon, the sages and disciples of the various sects were not only astonished but also puzzled.

Of course, with the exception of one person.

It was none other than the current head of Nangong family, Nangong Tian.

As compared to the astonishment and puzzlement of others, Nangong Tian was stunned for a second and continuously muttered the words ‘Jiang Ji’.

Afterwards, Nangong Tian knelt to the ground immediately.

“Jiang Ji… My ancestor!!!” Nangong Tian said with in extremely sorrowful tone, looking more miserable than he was when he saw how Nangong Mu was severely injured.

“Ancestor?!”

“Nangong Tian called Jiang Ji his ancestor?!”

“What’s going on? Is Nangong Tian silly… Wait a minute, unless the Jiang Ji which collapsed is not… is not a demon!”

“Not a demon? Then what could he be…”

Before the last sage completed his sentence, he stopped as his face turned extremely pale.

“He is a human!”

“That was a human!”

“Why did a human come out of the Gate of God of the monster race and demon race?”

The crowd exploded in astonishment.

This was extremely strange.

Nobody could figure out why Jiang Ji, a powerful human, was the first to fall from the Gate of God of the monster race and demon race.

That did not make sense at all.

“Yes, this does not make sense…” Fang Zhengzhi took a glance at the powerful demon race nearby, then at ‘Jiang Ji’ who was lying on the ground in front of him. He felt as though he was struck by lightning. His entire body was numb and his feet felt as though they were floating.

So…

I f*cking killed the wrong person?!

…

The breeze was chilly, so chilly that it made Fang Zhengzhi quiver.

He really could not understand why such a ridiculous thing could happen. It did not follow any common sense or logic.

A human who fell from the Gate of God of the monster race and demon race?

Who would believe this!

Anyway, Fang Zhengzhi refused to believe it. After all, it was too ridiculous.

Wait a minute!

Galaxy…

The same galaxy?!

Yun Qingwu’s words suddenly flashed across Fang Zhengzhi’s mind. Humankind, monster race and demon race were all sealed within the same galaxy.

He always had a doubt regarding this statement.

Based on Yun Qingwu’s “story”, when the natural disaster struck, the powerful individuals of the humankind, the monster race and the demon race all worked together with Mother Earth to defend against the natural disaster. Although they succeeded in the end, the powerful individuals of the three races could not make a comeback.

Meanwhile, Mother Earth, after defending against the natural disaster, had depleted so much energy that she was unable to get the powerful individuals of the three races to return. In the end, she could only create the three Gates of God.

This story was faultless.

However, the problem was: since it was in the same galaxy, why did Mother Earth waste her efforts and time constructing three different Gates of God?

Instead, she could just construct one!

After all, based on common sense, the efforts taken to construct three Gates of God was definitely much greater than that taken to construct one.

What was the reason?

Fang Zhengzhi did not understand at the moment. However, he felt that this could be related to what was happening in front of him.

Another possibility would be that Yun Qingwu did not fully understand what happened back then.

Could it be that the natural disaster that struck thousands of year ago…

Was related to some other event?

Fang Zhengzhi was unsure. However, what happened in front of him caused him to have such doubts. After all, it was something that happened thousands of years ago.

Of course, he could not possibly look into the matter now.

That was because things had already taken place.

He killed someone!

He killed an ancestor of the Nangong Nobles…

That was slightly awkward.

However, it was not the time to feel awkward. The powerful demon had already started to approach him step by step. Although he was not moving too fast, every step he took created some disruption in the air.

“Monster race? Nine-Tailed White Fox?” After looking at Monster Emperor Baizhi, the powerful demon gave a sigh and looked at Fang Zhengzhi and Yun Qingwu. “Both of you killed Jiang Ji?”

“Demon Deity Bing, Jiang Ji was killed by Fang Zhengzhi. Yun Qingwu is our current Young Lord. It was her intelligence that enabled us to open the Gate of God to welcome you back!” The elders of the demon race responded quickly.

“Young Lord?” The powerful demon glanced at Yun Qingwu from head to toe and stopped at a distance three steps away from her. “They said that your name is Yun Qingwu?”

“Yes.” Yun Qingwu nodded. She looked calm and was not affected by the fact that the powerful demon was approaching her. Neither did she kneel like the other elders of the demon race.

“Why do you not kneel?” The powerful demon nodded and spoke once again.

“In this world, I am the master. You… are not.” Yun Qingwu firmly glanced at the powerful demon.

“Oh? Interesting. For the demon race, we always abide by the rule where the most powerful gets to take charge. From your words, you seem to be confident that you are more powerful than me?” The powerful demon was not triggered by Yun Qingwu’s words. Instead, he gave a chilling smile.

“No, what I meant was, I have yet to see how powerful you are.”

“Hmm… How do you want to see it?”

“There are five people, standing in front of me, who want to kill me. I have stayed on the spot and held on for about an hour’s time. How long… could you hold on?”
