After that, Meng Tian walked towards the Ling Yun Tower without bothering about the extremely shocked expressions on the eleven disciples’ faces.

“Hold on!” After being shocked, the eleven disciples charged towards Meng Tian once again. Unfortunately, he had already walked far away.

“He’s so fast?!”

“How is he so fast?!”

“He is the Godly State expert, the Godly State expert of the Monster Race and Demon Race!”

The eleven disciples wanted to give chase but could not keep up with the extraordinary speed of Meng Tian. In a blink of an eye, he was already 100 feet away.

...

Fang Zhengzhi felt that he had given enough hints to the disciples of the Ling Yun Tower.

At least, after he kept the swords of the eleven disciples, he had not done anything horrendous to them.

For instance, he did not casually strip off their clothes and dripped wax on them. Instead, like a gentleman, he kept his cool.

However, the eleven disciples of the Ling Yun Tower did not realize that and still insisted on giving chase like a sticky patch that refused to let him off.

He was slightly annoyed.

However, a saying went, you cannot expect anyone to be as intelligent as you.

Fang Zhengzhi was walking very quickly and reached the bottom of the nine-story Ling Yun Tower in a blink of an eye.

In front of the tower were nearly 100 disciples of the Ling Yun Tower waiting with killing intent on their faces.

“Meng Tian, we will spare your life if you remove your face cloth!” A loud and strong voice was heard amongst the disciples.

“Can you be more creative?” Fang Zhengzhi was slightly speechless. He did not understand why the disciples of the Ling Yun Tower were still so arrogant although they were obviously at a disadvantage in terms of power.

Who gave them confidence?

“Die!” Attacking when an agreement could not be made was normal. With the command, the disciples of the Ling Yun Tower began to attack.

They quickly spread in all directions and then moved towards each other, surrounding Fang Zhengzhi in the center.

That was a rather impressive formation.

At least, the choice of position and techniques were very good, especially when the girls wearing dresses moved, it looked like the flowers blossoming.

Fang Zhengzhi was someone who knew how to appreciate beauty, hence he did not act immediately. Instead, he made a pose and waited for the disciples to get into formation.

As for what happened next...

He thought that by right, the powerhouse should appear after he was surrounded.

Therefore, would the first person to walk out of the Ling Yun Tower be the charming Qian Yu whom he had not met in five months, or the beautiful and cute Ping Yang?

Just when Fang Zhengzhi was mentally prepared, a figure appeared slowly from the Ling Yun Tower.

Waist...

Was rather straight.

Chest?

Wait? Why was there no chest?

Could it be that Qian Yu had used a special training method to make a certain part disappear within five months?

“Who on earth are you?!” A furious voice was heard before a shining gold color flashed.

The sun shone on the gold clothes of that figure, causing one to be slightly blinded by the reflection of light.

Wait a minute!

Why was it a guy?

Why were there guys in the Ling Yun Tower?

What the hell!

Just when Fang Zhengzhi felt extremely shocked, the man revealed his face. He was young and rather handsome.

“What... the... Your Majesty?!” Fang Zhengzhi almost cursed because he did not expect Emperor Lin Mubai to be present at the Ling Yun Tower.

What was going on?

Shouldn’t the Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty be overlooking the overall situation in the palace of the Flame Capital City during such time of crisis?

Why did he appear at the Ling Yun Tower?

“I am the Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty. If you are the Sagely Battle God, you should kneel when you see me!” demanded Emperor Lin Mubai after seeing how Fang Zhengzhi kept silent.

“So this is it...” Fang Zhengzhi was starting to understand the situation.

However, the current emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was rather infatuated with the Sagely Battle God. In order to verify his identity, he specially made a trip from the Great Xia to the Ling Yun Tower.

“Your Majesty, shouldn’t you think about the current crisis in the Great Xia Dynasty instead of coming all the way to the Ling Yun Tower?” Fang Zhengzhi asked.

“There is no crisis in the Great Xia Dynasty.” Emperor Lin Mubai frowned because “Meng Tian” clearly did not want to kneel down.

He figured out the situation very quickly. However, despite that, he had to keep his cool.

“Really? Wasn’t the Golden Scale City of the Northern Lands invaded?” Fang Zhengzhi took a look at the disciples nearby and spoke again.

“This is my national issue, who... exactly are you? Or rather, what Monster or what Demon are you?” Emperor Lin Mubai clearly did not intend to continue wasting his time with Fang Zhengzhi.

“My surname is Meng and my name is Tian!” Fang Zhengzhi replied without any hesitation.

“Haha... Why are you impersonating the Sagely Battle God of the Great Xia Dynasty?” Emperor Lin Mubai sneered and placed one of his hand on his waist.

“Do you mind to let me take a look at the ‘Green Dragon Eye’ hidden at your waist?” Fang Zhengzhi saw the movement of Emperor Lin Mubai.

“How... How did you know that I have the Green Dragon Eye?!” Emperor Lin Mubai’s calm expression changed.

Although the Great Xia Dynasty was not a huge secret in the Imperial Halls of the Great Xia Dynasty, not many people knew about it.

Most importantly, the Godly State experts of the Monster Race and Demon Race only descended after the battle at the Heaven Zen Mountain, so judging from the time...

If the “Meng Tian” in front of him was impersonated by a Godly State expert of the Monster Race and Demon Race, he would definitely not know about the Green Dragon Eye.

“Apart from the Green Dragon Eye, I also know much more. For instance, Lady Hua Fei gave birth to a girl named Ping Yang,” said Fang Zhengzhi.

“Haha... I see, in order to make you look more convincing, Yun Qingwu had told you everything.” Emperor Lin Mubai started laughing again.

“So Your Majesty firmly believes that I am fake?” Fang Zhengzhi took a step towards Emperor Lin Mubai as he spoke.

“Stop moving!” This small step caused a huge reaction from the disciples surrounding him.

After that, a patch of dark green light was seen.

Countless of dark green radiance spread from one of the disciples and combined soon after.

Meanwhile, as the radiance spread, there were green leaves that were clear and transparent but as sharp as a knife with hidden killing intent.

“Hold on, hold on... If you kill me now, then aren’t you giving up the chance to fully understand the truth of ‘Meng Tian’?” Fang Zhengzhi tried to convince the crowd around him as he smiled.

“Hold on, don’t kill him yet!” Emperor Lin Mubai raised his hand and narrowed his eyes. “Since you don’t want to die, answer a few of my questions.”

“Thank you for not killing me, Your Majesty, please ask,” Fang Zhengzhi replied.

“Why are you impersonating Meng Tian?” asked Emperor Lin Mubai.

“Impersonating? I am not impersonating, I am Meng Tian. No other Meng Tian is more real than me.” Fang Zhengzhi was saying the truth. If Meng Tian still existed, then he would be the most realistic Meng Tian.

“Do you want to die?” Emperor Lin Mubai said coldly.

“No.” Fang Zhengzhi shook his head.

“Then answer me, why are you impersonating Meng Tian?”

“I am Meng Tian.”

“Looks like you really want to die!”

“No.”

“Then you...” Emperor Lin Mubai was about to speak before he suddenly stopped. He was angered by the repeated questioning. However, he suppressed his anger quickly because of a simple reason.

There were a pair of eyes staring at him from his back.

He fell silent and took a deep breath. If he was unable to get an answer, he should change the question.

“Alright, since you claim to be Meng Tian, then who was the one who appeared on the Ling Xiao Mountain?” Emperor Lin Mubai asked the second question.

“Obviously that one was the fake Meng Tian,” replied Fang Zhengzhi.

“You asked someone to do that, didn’t you?” Emperor Lin Mubai nodded and continued asking.

“No, not for that fake Meng Tian.” Fang Zhengzhi shook his head.

“What about the other fake Meng Tians?” Emperor Lin Mubai’s eyes lit up and he asked again.

“Others... Maybe, or maybe not,” Fang Zhengzhi replied honestly.

“What do you mean?”

“To put it simply, I did arrange for a few people to impersonate me. However, after that arrangement, some other individual was inspired to insert a few more fake Meng Tians. Therefore, now I am also not aware of who are the fake and who are the real Meng Tians.”

“You are not aware too?” Emperor Lin Mubai understood what he meant.

After all, as the Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, he was excellent at comprehending and analyzing one’s words. However, he grew more suspicious after understanding what Fang Zhengzhi meant.

That was because it was really messy.

The self-claimed real “Meng Tian” arranged for a couple of fake Meng Tians, and someone else inserted more fake Meng Tians?

If the ordinary Holy Region was a pot of plain porridge, then the current Holy Region was a pot of porridge that was mixed with vegetables and all types of herbs and mud.

“Alright, I have finished answering your questions, now it’s Ling Yun Tower’s turn to answer my questions.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded and began to speak.

“What do you want to know?” Emperor Lin Mubai frowned and replied.

“Instead of participating in the Human Alliance, why did Ling Yun Tower decide to return to this place? This doesn’t seem to coincide with the Five Sects of the Holy Region’s ideology of “five sects same root”?” Fang Zhengzhi took a look inside the Ling Yun Tower as he asked.

“What same roots are you talking about, the Ling Yun Tower had never wanted to be live on the same root as the other four sects, that was merely a claim made by the other four sects.” A sound was heard from the Ling Yun Tower.

Following that, a figure who was wearing a silvery-white dress walked out of the Ling Yun Tower with her waterfall-like hair swaying around her waist.

Qian Yu!

Qian Yu, who was once trapped under the Icy Pond by Qian Ye for more than ten years after the inner conflicts of the Ling Yun Tower, was unfortunately as arrogant as Qian Ye.

Of course, there was another beautiful figure beside Qian Yu.

Such bright red was not commonly seen in the Ling Yun Tower, or rather, there was only one person who liked the bright red color.

It was none other than Ping Yang.

As compared to five months ago, Ping Yang was much more mature and calm. At least, she stopped pouting.

However, Fang Zhengzhi knew that the nature of an individual was impossible to be changed along with time. She was only pretending to be calm in front of others.

To put it frankly...

She was acting!

Fang Zhengzhi did not have a bad impression of the word ‘acting’. In fact, he liked it a lot as, after all, it required some skills to act.

“Cough cough, Tower Master Qian Yu is right, I actually can’t refute your point. However, since Tower Master Qian Yu feels that you are not living on the same root as the other four sects, why not consider joining my faction instead and live on the same root as me?” Fang Zhengzhi smiled.

“Live on the... same root as you? Haha...” Qian Yu laughed, she was like a lily in the snow, not too beautiful but still retained the grandeur.

“Tower Master Qian Yu, please don’t misunderstand. When I said living on the same root, I didn’t mean to... screw you!” Fang Zhengzhi felt embarrassed when he saw how happy Qian Yu was.

“...”

“...”

The most terrifying thing during a chat was the sudden dead silence. Evidently, there was an awkward dead silence.
