Chapter 416

"I see, then you can keep your gold mines . I am going to take a nap . " Fang Zhengzhi waved them off and leaned back .

"Fang Zhengzhi!" Princess Shan Yu raged .

γ€€γ€€

"Is there anything else, Princess?"

"Okay, I agree to your terms . Can you tell us the plan now?" Princess Shan Yu's eyes glimmered .

"Your Highness, you can't!"

"You can't give the life source of the Southern Region to such a thief!"

"Your highness!"

All of the generals pleaded when they heard what Princess Shan Yu said .

"Shut up!" Princess Shan Yu bellowed and beamed at Fang Zhengzhi . "Fang Zhengzhi, I promise to give you the 10 biggest gold mines . Are you happy now? Tell us your plan!"

"Okay then, let's sign the paperwork!" Fang Zhengzhi's eyes glimmered when he heard this .

"Get someone to draft the agreement for the gold mines . " Princess Shan Yu turned and ordered one of the generals . "Any other issues?"

γ€€

"None!"

γ€€γ€€

"Then tell us the plan?"

"I will after we sign the deal . "

"Fang Zhengzhi, don't try to push your luck . I have already agreed to your terms . Do you really think that I won't honor my word?" Princess Shan Yu raged .

"Do you dare to swear on your G.o.ds?" Fang Zhengzhi looked at the princess with scorn and shook his head .

Does this chick . . .

Really think that I am stupid?

"You, you . . . Fang Zhengzhi, ask me for anything else and I will definitely give it to you!" Princess Shan Yu's face was flushed .

"Your Highness, did you forget what you just said? You just called me a greedy mercenary . I don't want anything other than the gold mines . " Fang Zhengzhi replied .

He did not really think that he would be able to get those gold mines .

After all, Princess Shan Yu did not rule the Southern Region .

There was still the King and the Crown Prince . Even if Princess Shan Yu agreed to the terms, they may not be fulfilled .

However, he needed Princess Shan Yu to make this decision . That was the only way the had any chance of success .

Of course . . .

If they really became his . . .

γ€€

10 gold mines!

What a windfall that would be .

γ€€

Even if they only gave him a single gold mine, he would be able to live in luxury for many lifetimes .

Men need to be ambitious .

γ€€γ€€

Without ambitions . . .

They would have nothing to work towards . Even if the ambition borders on the impossible . . .

"Fang Zhengzhi, are you not afraid that I will just kill you right now?" Princess Shan Yu's body glowed with red cloud patterns . It was clear that she was losing control over her emotions .

"I am . . . but, are you not afraid?" Fang Zhengzhi replied .

"What?!" Princess Shan Yu bellowed, the red light enveloping her body like an inferno .

Fang Zhengzhi was shocked by this .

All of the generals instinctively took a step back, horror and terror written all over their faces .

The tension in the tent could be cut with a knife .

The red light continued to swirl around Princess Shan Yu .

"Fine, I agree to your terms!"

After a whole 15 minutes, Princess Shan Yu finally spoke . However, this time, her tone was calm .

After she said this, all of the light dissipated instantly .

Fang Zhengzhi did not reply immediately . He pushed an exquisite leather parchment to Princess Shan Yu .

This was the second time Princess Shan Yu had agreed to the terms . But this time, Fang Zhengzhi knew that she had made up her mind .

Princess Shan Yu did not hesitate either . She walked to the table, bent over and signed the agreement .

Then, she took out a green stamp and stamped the agreement . Finally, she bit her finger and dripped a drop of her blood onto the parchment .

After she was done, she pa.s.sed the agreement back to Fang Zhengzhi .

Fang Zhengzhi looked through the agreement . The names and locations of the gold mines were clearly written . Furthermore, the lease was . . .

Freehold!

Fang Zhengzhi's eyelids twitched and he kept the agreement . Then, he waved Princess Shan Yu over .

Princess Shan Yu frowned but decided to lean in .

Fang Zhengzhi could feel the inexplicable aura emanating from Princess Shan Yu's body . He felt as though he was in a furnace .

γ€€γ€€

His heart fluttered .

But he quickly calmed himself down .

He did not announce the plan for fear of spies within the ranks . When facing the Demons, he had to take precautions . The plan can only be heard by the commander .

"Actually, I was just kidding when I asked you to send 80,000 troops to Nan Ling . . . " Fang Zhengzhi whispered .

"You . . . " Princess Shan Yu shuddered . She had no idea if this was because she was angered by what she heard or if it was a reaction to Fang Zhengzhi's breath at her ear .

"I am quite sure that the Demons from the Blood Shadow City have already taken Nan Ling Settlement . As such, the best option now is to send a party of elite soldiers to set up an ambush between Nan Ling and Iron Hill . This will buy us some time . The rest of the army will reinforce the Iron Hill Settlement!"

"Elite soldiers?"

"Yes, the fastest ones! I think that there is no better candidate than your 3000 silver horned wolves!" Fang Zhengzhi added .

"You want me to commit my 3000 silver horned wolves and the 80,000 select soldiers? Then what about the Sagely Mountain City?" Princess Shan Yu whispered .

"I will go!" Fang Zhengzhi replied without hesitation .

"You will go to the Sagely Mountain City?" Princess Shan Yu asked doubtfully .

"Of course . " Fang Zhengzhi nodded . He wasn't trying to be a hero, but he was keenly aware of something else .

γ€€

The Great Xia army would never stay in the Icy Monkey Settlement for long .

They would go out!

As quickly as possible!

γ€€

That was their only option .

As such, the Great Xia army should have already begun marching towards the Sagely Mountain City . Furthermore, they would be fine as long as the Demons from the Blood Shadow City didn't reach the Sagely Mountain City .

γ€€γ€€

He could ensure his own safety and be a hero at the same time .

Fang Zhengzhi was extremely proud of his plan .

γ€€

"I don't like the idea of you going alone!" Princess Shan Yu shook her head instinctively . Then, she realized that what she just said could be easily misunderstood . She quickly added, "I don't like the idea of placing the fate of the Sagely Mountain City, the King, and my Third Brother in your hands!"

"Oh . . . " Fang Zhengzhi nodded, then looked at Princess Shan Yu . . .

γ€€γ€€ . . .

γ€€

The night was ice cold .

The day of fighting had caused the air around the Sagely Mountain City to be filled with the stench of blood .

Bodies lay in piles outside the imperial palace . The blood formed streams and puddles around the bodies .

Cries could be heard throughout the night . They were the cries of the elderly, the children, the wives . . . yet, there were no sounds of soldiers .

The entire capital was deathly silent .

Heavily armored soldiers guarded the walls of the imperial palace . Each of them carried a black spear in their hands .

They were the imperial guard, a group of elite soldiers loyal only to the royal family . Despite the stench of blood and the chilly air, they continued to stand tall .

Their only mission . . .

Guard the palace!

They were to guard this sacred ground, the most important land in all the Southern Region .

Two black figures appeared under the moonlight . Then, they quickly disappeared into the darkness, almost as if they were never there to begin with .

γ€€

"Enter the city!"

"No, no we can't!"

Two voices whispered in the dark .

One voice was from a lady . Her tone was urgent . The second was male, and his tone was equally urgent .

There was no doubt . . .

The voices were from Princess Shan Yu and Fang Zhengzhi .

Princess Shan Yu was worried about the King and her brother . She wanted to enter the city to check on them . However, Fang Zhengzhi was in no hurry to do that .

γ€€γ€€

He was panicking because . . .

γ€€

d.a.m.n it!

Where is the Great Xia army?

He had already stalled for time, choosing to scale the city walls after dark . Yet, he still did not see a single Great Xia soldier .

There was no trace of them!

Fang Zhengzhi's plan was simple . He was sure that the Great Xia would take this opportunity to launch an attack on the Sagely Mountain City .

The plan was simple .

He would have Princess Shan Yu order the Southern Region soldiers to take over the empty Icy Monkey Settlement . Then, they would join forces with the Great Xia and devour the Demons .

But what now?

There wasn't any movement!

γ€€γ€€

The plan . . .

Seemed to be going wrong!
