That tactic could not be described at all.

'After all, you guys are already the G.o.dly State experts, do you really have to be so “exaggerated”? Can't you take note of the style of experts?'

Of course, Fang Zhengzhi did not know what went on in the G.o.dly Beasts and the demons minds, even if he knew, he would reply, “What f*cking style of experts?”

'Regardless if it's black or white, a cat that could catch mice is a good cat' 1 .

The outcome was the most important.

Fang Zhengzhi did not bother about whether he was using any tactics anymore. He only had one thought in mind, which was to withdraw the Xuanyuan Sword from Chi You.

In order to ensure that the Xuanyuan Sword was not destroyed, he could do anything. If Ping Yang did not care about her reputation as the Princess of the Great Xia Dynasty, why else did Fang Zhengzhi need to care about?

Not only was he stepping on Chi You with his feet, but he was also digging into Chi You's armpit with his free hand.

He was not tickling him…

He was scratching him.

The strength involved was completely different.

He scratched him extremely strongly. He used all his strength and ultimately used his teeth.

However, just as he bit on Chi You's waist, he realized…

It was extremely hard.

With his current capability, he could even bite on a metal. However, he felt like his teeth were breaking apart when he bit Chi You.

“Fang Zhengzhi, I didn't expect you to be so humorous.” Chi You's cold voice was heard before a powerful force surged out from his body.

Boom!

Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five flew.

Two broken dragon teeth flew out from his mouth. It was obvious that his bite on Chi You's arm was useless too.

After that, Chi You's other arm grew rapidly and caught Xuanyuan Five immediately, strangling him on his neck.

“Roar…” Xuanyuan Five struggled with all his might.

However, a group of thick black haze surrounded his body immediately and entered his mouth, causing his eyes to turn blacker.

Fang Zhengzhi had seen this before.

Chi You used the same method to kill Mo Shans.h.i.+. The black haze entered from his mouth and nose before he exploded and died.

“Xuanyuan Five!” Fang Zhengzhi wanted to save him but he was forcefully hit away by the powerful force, even his Xuanyuan Sword was knocked out of his hand.

Besides him, Ping Yang, Chi Guyan and Yan Xiu, as well as everyone who attacked Chi You earlier on was. .h.i.t away by the powerful force. Moreover, the other three arms of Chi You began to swing at Ping Yang, Chi Guyan and Yan Xiu as that happened.

Six arms.

One was holding the Xuanyuan Sword, one was holding onto Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five, three were swung towards Chi Guyan, Yan Xiu and Ping Yang. The last one appeared behind Fang Zhengzhi.

“No!” Fang Zhengzhi's eyes were red. He used all his strength to stop himself in the sky and endured the powerful force.

He was not caught by Chi You.

However, that caused him to breathe heavily and a mouthful of blood went up to his mouth.

However, he did not spit it out as he had no time to do that. He had to stop Chi You.

Trying to stop him with one hand?

That was impossible!

He could dodge with the Heavenly Rebirth Dao.

Fang Zhengzhi dared to fight with Chi You because although he was unable to hurt him, he was able to dodge Chi You's attacks.

However, if Chi Guyan caught Chi Guyan, Ping Yang and Yan Xiu…

That was another story.

“Chi Guyan, fight with me!” Fang Zhengzhi forcefully swallowed the blood in his mouth and shouted while charging towards Chi Guyan and the rest.

“Shameless thief, don't care about us, watch out!” Chi Guyan shouted immediately and anxiously when she saw Fang Zhengzhi running towards her.

“What?!” Fang Zhengzhi was shocked.

However, it was too late. The three arms of Chi You turned around when Fang Zhengzhi charged over.

All three arms went towards Fang Zhengzhi.

They surrounded him from three different directions, in addition to the arm behind him.

Attack from four directions!

“The legendary 'Arms Monster' was probably like that?” Fang Zhengzhi's mind went blank when he saw the arms which were able to change in length.

He could dodge one or two arms.

However, his expression changed completely when he saw the four arms coming from four different directions.

That was because the four arms were too fast.

He was able to dodge with the Heavenly Rebirth Dao. However, when he was surrounded in all directions, how could he dodge?

Downwards?

Chi You was below him.

Upwards!

Fang Zhengzhi had no choice and no time to think. He immediately used his Heavenly Rebirth Dao and flew up.

However, at this moment, a beam of radiance shone from the b.l.o.o.d.y sun in the sky.

It was a scorching hot b.l.o.o.d.y radiance.

Boom! The radiance hit Fang Zhengzhi's chest.

Instantly, he felt as though he was being hit by the sun. It was so hot that his entire body felt as though it was on fire. The powerful force pressed his body down.

'Oh no!'

There were both Chi You and his four arms below him.

Fang Zhengzhi wanted to dodge but the powerful force did not allow him to resist at all.

“Fang Zhengzhi, go and die!” Chi You's voice echoed beside his ears.

After that, he saw the four arms moving towards him and struck his body from four directions. That caused his mind to go blank.

Boom!

Fang Zhengzhi spat out a mouth of blood.

Then, he fell in a straight line.

Plop!

He fell into the boiling hot lava.

“Shameless thief!”

“Zhengzhi!”

“Shameless brat!”

Chi Guyan and Yan Xiu's voice was heard almost at the same time.

However, Fang Zhengzhi could no longer hear them. He could only feel that his body was being burnt and could only see a bright red color in front of him.

Painful, it was really painful.

However, for some reason, Fang Zhengzhi thought that this felt familiar.

It was not his first time in lava. He felt that he had experienced something similar in his dreams before.

“Am I dead?” Fang Zhengzhi looked around. He could no longer feel the existence of his body.

“No, you are not dead yet but you will be soon.” At this moment, he heard a voice.

'Who?'

'Hmm.. Unless it's you?!'

Fang Zhengzhi tried to open his eyes but could only see a patch of red. However, he definitely heard something.

The voice was familiar.

It was the voice of the lady in the white dress he heard in his dreams.

“Do you still remember how I threw you into the lava? Recall that feeling,” the familiar voice echoed beside Fang Zhengzhi's ears.

“Recall… that feeling?” Although Fang Zhengzhi did not know what the lady in the white dress wanted, he had no other choice but to follow.

The feeling in the dream…

The feeling in the lava.

Fang Zhengzhi gradually calmed down. He was embracing the pain of being burnt. Although it was extremely painful, he was able to train himself.

Very quickly, a feeling of warmth rose from his heart.

It grew continuously like a sprout, gradually separating the scorching heat, making him feel as though he was taking a warm bath.

At this moment, the world in front of him changed too.

The bright red disappeared and he saw the ocean instead. There was a pearl floating above the ocean.

It was that pearl?!

The pearl under the pond in the parallel dimension of the Divine Constabulary?!

Fang Zhengzhi had never seen this pearl ever since he took it out of the pond. Yet now, it was floating in front of him.

He would he not be surprised?

“Who on earth are you?” Fang Zhengzhi said as he felt that the pearl was the real look of the lady in the white dress.

“I am not a human,” said the lady.

“Then what are you… Demon, monster, or a ghost?” Chills went down Fang Zhengzhi's back as he said the last word.

“…” The lady in the white dress fell silent.

“Answer me, are you a ghost?” Fang Zhengzhi was slightly anxious.

“No, to be accurate, I am a strand of remnant consciousness,” said the lady in the white dress again.

“Remnant consciousness?”

“Hmm, to put it frankly, I can tell you how to defeat Chi You, however…” The lady in the white dress stopped talking again.

“However what?”

“However you won't be able to learn it.”

“…” Fang Zhengzhi wanted to curse.

So she said that for nothing?

Moreover, that was not the way to destroy someone's confidence, right? How dare she say that Fang Zhengzhi was unable to learnt it? She did not even try teaching him before.

“Don't curse at me because you really won't be able to learn it. However, someone can.” The pearl in front of him disappeared and the lady in the white dress gradually turned into a human figure.

“Who? Chi Guyan?” Fang Zhengzhi thought that only Chi Guyan could do it.

This speculation was not without a reason. That was because he remembered he found the pearl in the Divine Constabulary. Therefore, it could be related to the Divine Constabulary.

“If Chi Guyan can learn it, then I won't bother looking for you. She had entered the parallel dimension of the 'Heavenly Treasure Hall' when she was 20 years old. I definitely had the chance of letting her try this.” The lady in the white dress shook her head.

“It's not Chi Guyan? Then could it be… are you referring to…”

“Yes, Yun Qingwu.” The lady in the white dress nodded. “Only someone who mastered The Art of Becoming Invisible and has the supreme ability to make deductions can master this.”

“…” Fang Zhengzhi fell silent.

However, if they were to talk about The Art of Becoming Invisible and deductions, Yun Qingwu was definitely the best at it.

However, why was it Yun Qingwu?

He did not understand.

“It's alright if you don't understand. You just have to remember to spit out my remnant consciousness into Yun Qingwu's mouth once you have woken up,” said the lady in the white dress again.

“So that's your idea?” Fang Zhengzhi looked quietly at the lady in the white dress.

“Hmm.” The lady in the white dress nodded.

“Why should I believe you?” asked Fang Zhengzhi again.

Although he had interacted with the lady in the white dress many times and she had given him some reminders, it was merely a reminder.

He was unsure of how the lady in the white dress appeared and her ident.i.ty.

Would someone who claimed that she was able to fight against Chi You's “remnant consciousness” exist in this world?

He was unsure.

“How would you believe me?” The lady in the white dress fell silent for a moment before speaking again.

“You should at least tell me your name.” Fang Zhengzhi looked serious as he had to confirm the real ident.i.ty of the lady in the white dress.

“My name?” The lady in the white dress fell silent again.

She looked up slightly into the sky which was a boundless blue. She seemed to be recalling and thinking at the same time.

Fang Zhengzhi did not disturb her. He was waiting.

He had always been bothered by a question, who on earth was the lady in the white dress? Why did she know how to defeat Chi You?

“I can tell you my name. I also can clarify another doubt of yours.” The lady in the white dress finally spoke after a long time.

“Another doubt of mine?” Fang Zhengzhi blinked.

“Don't you always want to know why the Emperor Huang Xuanyuan wasted his energy to go to the galaxy?” The lady in the white dress nodded and asked.

“Was he… trying to save you?”

“He wanted to save me but he did not have enough power. He was unsuccessful despite using all his strength. The only thing he could do is to put my remnant consciousness in the 'Muchen Pearl 2 '.”

“Muchen Pearl?!” Fang Zhengzhi's eyes suddenly widened.

Muchen Pearl, one of the three G.o.dly Pearls?!

The legendary Muchen Pearl which had the blood of the never-dying phoenix. It was left behind by Emperor Huang Xuanyuan after he had pa.s.sed away.

Hold on!

Emperor Huang Xuanyuan pa.s.sed away and left behind a Muchen Pearl?!

This historical record…

Did it mean that Emperor Huang Xuanyuan had once split the sky apart and entered another galaxy, then putting the strand of remnant consciousness of the lady in the white dress into the Muchen Pearl before leaving it behind on earth?

Fang Zhengzhi felt that he had a completely new understanding of the legend. Moreover, this legend was recorded.

That was somewhat ridiculous.

The secret story of the ancient era was really complicated.

“Actually, I don't belong to this world. However, I have a name in this world… they called me Xuan Nv 3 , hmm…'Xuan Nv of the Nine Heavens'.” The lady in the white dress sighed slightly and did not seem to want to talk about her name.
