If the sword radiance alone could hurt a G.o.dly State Expert, what would happen if one got struck by this sword?

It was unimaginable!

Qiong Qi, Hong You, and the G.o.dly Experts of the Monster Race and Demon Race all could not believe it. They looked closely at the golden long sword in Fang Zhengzhi's hand.

Soon, the golden radiance disappeared and turned into streams of light which blended into the hit and flowed along the entire sword.

“Could that be…”

“Impossible!”

“How could that be possible?!”

The Monster Race and Demon Race, including Qiong Qi and Hong You, were stunned as they stood rooted to the ground and looked in fear.

That was because they saw how the sword looked like.

A clear pattern was flowing on both sides of the sword blade. One side had plants and looked so real that it made one's heart shudder.

On the other side, there were sun and stars. The sun and stars were engraved on the sword and countless of stars emitted an eye-catching radiance.

As for the hilt…

There were many symbols flowing on it.

One could not tell clearly but all of the monsters and demons knew what was written on the sword. One side was about the skills needed for farming while the other side was about how to conquer the world.

That was because it was the Xuanyuan Sword!

“Xuanyuan Sword?!”

“How is that possible? How can he be holding onto the Xuanyuan Sword?!”

“Could he be…”

“…”

The Monster Race and Demon Race were astonished.

Besides them, Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five also widened his eyes as he was way too familiar with the aura exuded by the sword.

Xuanyuan Sword!

It was really the Xuanyuan Sword!

Could this brat really be…

“That's right, I am the reincarnated Emperor Huang Xuanyuan!” Fang Zhengzhi looked around and raised his Xuanyuan Sword above his head.

“…”

The Monster Race and Demon Race fell silent.

“…”

Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five, Ping Yang, Yan Xiu as well as Mu Qingfeng, also fell silent.

When they saw Fang Zhengzhi raise his Xuanyuan Sword, they had speculated that Fang Zhengzhi was related to Emperor Huang Xuanyuan.

However, that was merely speculation.

Why did he admit it on his own?!

Fang Zhengzhi's voice echoed in the Changyang Mountain. However, the atmosphere around him was extremely strange. The Monster Race and Demon Race, Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five and Ping Yang all gave a strange look.

“I have the Xuanyuan Sword, do you guys still not believe me?” Fang Zhengzhi looked at the Monster Race and Demon Race and raised his Xuanyuan Sword even higher.”

“…” n.o.body spoke.

“I have already said. I am the reincarnated Emperor Huang Xuanyuan, do all of you still not bow down to me? Do all of you want to die?” Fang Zhengzhi said sternly.

“…” The Monster Race and Demon Race exchanged gazes and n.o.body dared to talk or move forward.

Fang Zhengzhi frowned.

What was going on?

Was he not acting like Emperor Huang Xuanyuan?

All of them clearly looked extremely afraid when they saw the Xuanyuan Sword and shouted ‘Xuanyuan Sword' instinctively.

Was that not sufficient to scare them?

They still did not treat him as Emperor Huang Xuanyuan?

Fang Zhengzhi wanted to use this time of their hesitation to prepare and raise his sword higher so everyone could see it more clearly.

The sword he was holding was indeed the Xuanyuan Sword.

However, at this moment, a furious roar ruined his plan.

“Ah… You are Emperor Huang Xuanyuan, why do you want to hurt me, why, kill, I'll kill you!” This voice was very deep but loud.

Then, a gigantic figure ran towards Fang Zhengzhi. He was as fast as a charging horse and reached Fang Zhengzhi in a blink of an eye.

“…” Fang Zhengzhi's mouth twitched.

So, he spent so much effort acting, and instead of persuading the powerful monsters and demons, he ended up persuading the “headless creature”, Xing Tian?

What the f*ck!

He really thought he was the reincarnated Emperor Huang Xuanyuan and came over to interrogate him about why he hurt him and wanted to take revenge?

How naive!

‘How do I f*cking know the reason why Emperor Huang Xuanyuan wanted to hurt you?'

Fang Zhengzhi wanted to protest from extreme dissatisfaction because, by right, the Monster Race and Demon Race should tremble and fall to their knees when he shouted, ‘I am the reincarnated Emperor Huang Xuanyuan'.

Then, they would hail Emperor Huang…

Although he did not know if there was something like hailing the Emperor, there definitely should not be silence.

Of course, he had to attack the rash Xing Tian.

“Xing Tian, how dare you!” Fang Zhengzhi continued to act and did not retreat. He intentionally exuded a golden radiance from his body which merged with the Xuanyuan Sword.

Then, he went up against Xing Tian's gigantic ax.

Boom!

Xing Tian took five steps back.

Fang Zhengzhi also moved back slightly but unlike Xing Tian, he only took one step back.

One step versus five steps!

That was insane!

“Gasp!” The Monster Race and Demon Race, including Qiong Qi and Hong You took a deep breath. Thy did not expect Xing Tian to be the one suffering loss from this battle.

Was it because of the Xuanyuan Sword?

No!

The Xuanyuan Sword was only one of the reasons. The greater reason was that Fang Zhengzhi was really powerful and was able to fight against Xing. Tian

It was too terrifying.

Didn't he just enter the G.o.dly State?!

He managed to fight against Xing Tian, the ancient Battle G.o.d. Moreover, he had the advantage in terms of power during the one versus one battle.

How terrifying was that?

“Attack!”

“Don't let him live!”

“Let's kill him together before his injuries healed completely!”

Qiong Qi and Hong You made their commands. Both of them looked shocked but despite that, all of them looked extremely fierce.

“…” Fang Zhengzhi's eyes twitched.

They collaborated again?!

What on earth was happening?

‘Is the name of Emperor Huang Xuanyuan not useful? Despite knowing that I am the reincarnated Emperor Huang Xuanyuan, they still wanted to kill me?'

Wait a minute.

Talking about Emperor Huang Xuanyuan…

It really seemed to be not useful in front of the Monster Race and Demon Race.

Fang Zhengzhi realized suddenly that in the ancient era, Emperor Huang Xuanyuan represented the humans as he was the leader and representative of the humankind.

In the ancient battle, Emperor Huang Xuanyuan had led the humans to fight against the Monster Race and Demon Race, thereby triggering the Cosmic Disaster. The three races only managed to reach a ceasefire thanks to Mother Earth's leaders.h.i.+p.

Therefore, they really did not have a good relations.h.i.+p. It was a wrong step taken by Fang Zhengzhi, he should not have said he was the reincarnated Emperor Huang Xuanyuan.

He should say that he was…

“Hold on, Xuanyuan Five, who is the leader of the Monster Race and Demon Race?” Fang Zhengzhi took a look at the Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five who had his eyes wide open.

“…” Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five was evidently stunned before he shook his head. “Brat, you should look around you.”

“Hehe,” Fang Zhengzhi laughed. He knew what the Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five was referring to. As Qiong Qi and Hong You collaborated, he was already surrounded by the Monster Race and Demon Race.

Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five had come to Fang Zhengzhi with Mu Qingfeng.

Meanwhile, Ping Yang, Yan Xiu, as well as Monster Emperor Baizhi had made use of the time in between to go beside Fang Zhengzhi.

A battle between the humans and the Monster Race and Demon Race took place.

The only “heresy” was Xing Tian and Nangong Mu who was lying on Xing Tian's shoulders.

Xing Tian's build was huge and he occupied a s.p.a.ce immediately. Meanwhile, the other positions were occupied by Qiong Qi, Tao Wu and Hong You.

They trapped Fang Zhengzhi and the rest from all directions.

“Fang Zhengzhi, what do you want to do?” said Monster Emperor Baizhi. As the Nine-Tailed White Fox, she did not have to get involved in such a battle.

However, she got involved in this.

Based on her agreement with Fang Zhengzhi, she would only help Yan Xiu temporarily and become his temporary “horse”. She did not have to fight all out with the Monster Race and Demon Race.

“Of course, as compared to Monster Emperor Baizhi, Bi Fang was much more “composed” and did not question at all as she had not retreated.

If Ping Yang lived, she would live. If Ping Yang died, she would die.

“What do we do? Bai… Auntie Baizhi, what should I do?” Fang Zhengzhi was somewhat surprised by Monster Emperor Baizhi's question and asked instinctively.

“Did you call me ‘auntie'?” Monster Emperor Baizhi as surprised too. However, they were not on the same line.

“Then should I call you an old wretch?”

“Forget it, call me Auntie.”

“So what should we do, Auntie?” Fang Zhengzhi smiled and asked again.

“I am asking you that question!” said Monster Emperor Baizhi angrily.

“Haha… Alright, since Auntie is asking me, I shall be frank. It's simple, kill whoever who comes and attack!” Fang Zhengzhi sounded calm.

“…” Monster Emperor Baizhi moved her mouth and wanted to say something but swallowed her words.

‘You are good!'

‘You can go ahead and kill!'

There were dozens of G.o.dly Beasts and nearly 200 powerful demons there. No matter how powerful one was, he would have limited strength, right?

Could he really kill everyone?

Just as Monster Emperor Baizhi was thinking about that, a “swoosh” was heard and she discovered, to her horror, Fang Zhengzhi had already dashed out.

He really went towards the Monster Race and Demon Race on his own.

“Attack!” Xing Tian roared loudly and charged towards Fang Zhengzhi again.

At this moment, Nangong Mu who was lying on his shoulder suddenly crawled up and looked as though he was in extreme agony.

“Xing Tian, don't… don't kill him. Don't kill Fang Zhengzhi!” Nangong Mu did not know how he managed to say this sentence but after he said it, he looked as though he was about to collapse. He was covered with perspiration from head to toe, looking as though he had just gone through an exhausting battle.

However, Xing Tian clearly did not bother to listen to Nangong Mu.

“Attack!” Xing Tian's voice was as loud as thunder. He came straight at Fang Zhengzhi and completely disregarded what Nangong Mu said.

He only had one thought in mind.

Kill the reincarnated Emperor Huang Xuanyuan, Fang Zhengzhi!

At this moment, Fang Zhengzhi laughed.

He did not seem to have the intention to retreat at all.

Instead, he went towards Xing Tian.

Then…

Disappeared!

Yes, he disappeared again.

A soldier of the demon race appeared at Fang Zhengzhi's original position and was charging towards Xing Tian's “face” mercilessly.

Then, he was stunned.

Then…

There was no ‘then'.

That was because Xing Tian's ax had already hit his head and sliced his body into half like cutting a watermelon.

“Boom!” Blood gushed out.

Meanwhile, a person wearing blue robe appeared where the soldier of the demon race was at.

It was none other than Fang Zhengzhi!

There was another demon soldier in front of Fang Zhengzhi's “face”.

Like the demon soldier who died, his expression changed from one that was merciless to one that was completely stunned.

The reason was simple…

Fang Zhengzhi had stabbed his forehead. With a flash of golden light, Fang Zhengzhi completely destroyed the mark on his forehead.

“I said earlier on, I will kill whoever who comes to attack me!” Fang Zhengzhi pressed his hand on the head of the demon soldier.

Swoos.h.!.+

The demon soldier fell straight onto the ground. He died with his eyes wide open.

Everything happened too quickly.

He could not react in time at all.

Gasp!

“Is it the s.h.i.+fting forms technique of the Heavenly Rebirth Dao?!”

“The boundary… The boundary of the s.h.i.+fting Forms technique had expanded to cover twenty… twenty feet!”

The Monster Race and Demon Race stared at Fang Zhengzhi blankly and cold sweat trickled down their foreheads.

They had already figured out what Fang Zhengzhi wanted to do.

Xing Tian was on the Monster Race and Demon Race's side?!

That's right!

It may have looked like that.

However, when they went deeper into the details, they realized that Xing Tian, instead of killing Fang Zhengzhi, was being used by Fang Zhengzhi as another “sword”.

One sword was named Xuanyuan.

One sword was named Xing Tian.

After performing the s.h.i.+fting Forms technique, Fang Zhengzhi killed not one, but two demons or monsters. One died under the Xuanyuan Sword and one died under the ax of Xing Tian.

How could they continue…

With this battle?!

It was like catching loaches in the soil, it was extremely slippery.

No!

This was not catching loaches. It was catching snakes. Moreover, it was catching snakes in the muddy water barehanded, one could not even see the shadow of the snake.

“Xing Tian, I am here, come and kill me!” Fang Zhengzhi smiled brightly and signaled to Xing Tian with his fingers.
