“You want me to be the “horse” of Yan Xiu? Dream on!” Monster Emperor Baizhi was an arrogant person. She rejected the insulting request straight away.

After all, she was once the Monster Emperor, the most powerful individual in the Holy Region that ruled over the Great Swamp.

How would she possibly become one’s “horse”?

Moreover, she did not want to participate in the battle now. After making a breakthrough, she had only one thing in mind — to take her responsibility as a mother.

“Ask Baizhi to be Yan Xiu’s pet?!”

“...”

“Is that brat crazy?”

The demons and Godly Beasts did not expect Fang Zhengzhi to bring up such a ridiculous deal.

“If you need a Godly Beast to help you, you can ask other Godly Beasts to help you. Why must it be Baizhi?” Qiong Qi frowned.

“Or else, do you want to do it?” Fang Zhengzhi asked.

“How dare you. I am one of the four ancient beasts, how can I be the “horse” for you humans?!” Qiong Qi was furious.

“Na... It’s not that I don’t want to change but it’s because you are unwilling to. As the Nine-Tailed White Fox, Baizhi has an extremely strong sense of premonition and can sense danger before it strikes. This skill is very useful for us. How about this, I only have this term, do you guys agree? If you don’t, then there’s no need for us to continue the discussion!” Fang Zhengzhi had fixed his target on Monster Emperor Baizhi.

“If she is unwilling to, how can I force her?”

“Then it’s the monster race’s business. If I were you, I will use one method.”

“What?”

“Either she is willing to do it or I will beat her up until she is willing to do it. If it’s the latter, I will make use of my Near-Life Dao to put restraints on her to prevent her from resisting.”

“Alright, we will follow your method!” Qiong Qi nodded immediately.

However, when Monster Emperor Baizhi heard their conversation, she shuddered immediately and her face flushed.

“This brat wants to use his Near-Life Dao on me?!” Chills went down Monster Emperor Baizhi’s back. She had seen how Bi Fang fell to Fang Zhengzhi because of the Near-Life Dao.

It was too pathetic.

Once one was controlled by the Near-Life Dao, if one did not make use of one’s power to forcefully break through the restraint, one would most probably end up being restrained for one’s entire life.

“Baizhi, so are you willing to do it yourself, or do you want us to take part in this?” Qiong Qi was very straightforward. After all, as one of the four ancient beasts, he could afford to boss people around.

Disregarding the fact that he was the temporary leader of the Monster Race, he was more powerful than Monster Emperor Baizhi after evolution.

Monster Emperor Baizhi tightened the grip on her claw.

She had broken through the Godly State and accomplished the last evolution stage of the monster race and her ninth tail managed to re-grow. However, she was incomparable to Qiong Qi in terms of skill level.

Moreover, most importantly, she was alone!

“Fang Zhengzhi, if you want to force me to become a pet, I will kill them!” Monster Emperor Baizhi narrowed her eyes and was ready to attack Wu Yuer and the rest.

“Mother!” Yun Qingwu blocked Monster Emperor Baizhi.

“Qingwu, what are you doing? Move aside, unless you want mother to end up being his pet?” Monster Emperor Baizhi had already interacted with Yun Qingwu.

She knew her daughter’s stand.

However, unlike earlier on when she agreed to let Wu Yuer and the others off, she couldn’t agree to become a “horse”.

Yun Qingwu did not reply to Monster Emperor Baizhi.

She turned slowly and looked at Fang Zhengzhi who was at a distance. “Fang Zhengzhi, I just want to ask you something, do you dare to be responsible for my mother’s life?”

“No, I don’t dare, but I can promise you, if your mother wants to die, she will die after me!” Fang Zhengzhi replies straightforwardly and looked extremely stern.

Yum Qingwu stared into Fang Zhengzhi’s eyes and kept quiet for a long time. Then, she finally turned to look at Monster Emperor Baizhi.

“Mother, only Fang Zhengzhi can save the world now.”

“Save the world?” Monster Emperor Baizhi narrowed her eyes.

“Yes, save the world. Mother, you should know what I mean.” Yun Qingwu nodded her head very hard.

“Haha... I understand, of course, I do... my daughter has grown up, not only does she have her own opinion, but she also has a crush on someone.”

“Mother...”

“Rest assured, I am not blaming you. I always believe in your decisions, be it when I first saw you or now. Since you think that this brat can save the world, I will believe that he can save the world.”

“...”

“Alright, Wu Yuer, Yan Qianli, Mo Shanshi, I will hand over my daughter to you. If any mishaps happen, I will definitely kill you!” Monster Emperor Baizhi stared at Wu Yuer and the rest coldly.

“Although I don’t like to be threatened, judging from the special circumstances, I will assure you that we will take good care of Yun Qingwu!” Mo Shanshi raised his head.

“Hmm.” Yan Qianli nodded slightly too.

Wu Yuer did not say anything. She whipped out an object that looked like a mirror and handed it to Yun Qingwu.

“This is the welcome gift from me as a sister, keep it.”

“No thanks.” Yun Qingwu shook her head and rejected the mirror. Then, she added, “If you want a welcome gift, I should be the one giving it to you.”

“You...” Wu Yuer was annoyed.

What the hell?!

As a Sect Leader of the Shadow Sect, it was alright if she was unable to get Chi Guyan, the beloved daughter of the Divine Constabulary of the Northern Lands, under control. However, he was unable to get a demoness under control now?

At this rate, he would lose his reputation in the future!

“You alone... won’t be able to defeat Chi Guyan.” Yun Qingwu mumbled to herself as though she could read Wu Yuer’s mind.

“What do you mean?!” Wu Yuer widened her eyes.

“She had Ping Yang’s back and Ping Yang would listen to her. Your case is different, unless...”

“Unless what?”

“Do you think I can defeat Chi Guyan?”

“You mean...”

“This is my welcome gift as a sister, tell me if you like it.” Instead of replying Wu Yuer, Yun Qingwu whipped out a waistband.

It was a waistband that was white like jade. There were seven gemstones of different colors on the waistband, each glowing with radiance.

Moreover, there were cloud patterns concentrated around the seven gemstones. The light flowed on it like water.

“Seven Treasures Colored Glass Band, it comprises of the changes of seven different Dao. You can attack and defend, as well as turn it into seven different weapons — sword, knife, spear, ax, halberd, rod and whip. Apart from that, you can also turn it into seven beautiful dresses. This is one of the three biggest treasures of the Demon Race, comparable to the Black-Golden Wings on Fang Zhengzhi.” Yun Qingwu especially emphasized on the phrase “beautiful dresses”.

“Gulp.” Wu Yuer swallowed her saliva and her eyes lit up.

Monster Emperor Baizhi began to move. She turned into a nine-colored radiance extremely quickly and appeared in front of Fang Zhengzhi in a blink of an eye.

“Fang Zhengzhi, you have to remember, I’m doing this only for this battle!” Monster Emperor Baizhi bent forward and showed her back to Yan Xiu.

“Hmm, only for this battle.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded.

Yan Xiu did not waste time. He leaped and stood on the back of Monster Emperor Baizhi. As he opened his silver blood fan, a light screen shrouded him and Monster Emperor Baizhi together.

Upon seeing this, the Godly Beasts and Demons began to move back slowly.

The deal had been reached.

They could retreat first.

Fang Zhengzhi allowed the Monster Race and Demon Race to leave without stopping them.

Hong You and Qiong Qi looked at each other.

A cold gaze flashed across both of their eyes.

As long as the Monster Race and Demon Race left the battleground, Fang Zhengzhi and the other humans would be held back by Xing Tian and nothing would be under their control.

Although they sacrificed a Nine-Tailed White Fox, as compared to the final victory, this sacrifice was definitely worth it.

“Fang Zhengzhi, just wait for your death,” thought Hong You before he shouted loudly, “Everyone to retreat and leave the space for them!”

“Roger!” All the demons nodded.

Qiong Qi also roared loudly and all the monsters retreated after hearing his roar.

This caused Xing Tian to relax.

The immense stress he was under disappeared instantly. A fierce murderous aura filled the sky. He waved his ax and his shield in front of him and a cold look flashed in his eyes, which was in front of his chest.

“Scram!” Xing Tian roared and attacked again.

This time, Chi Guyan was the one who stood out to stop him. With a sway of her gigantic tail, she wound her tail around Xing Tian’s arm and blocked his attack.

However, Xing Tian was too powerful.

Although his hand was restrained by Chi Guyan’s snake tail, he did not stop moving his arm. Chi Guyan was flung into the air.

Mu Qingfeng turned even paler.

He would never expect Fang Zhengzhi to agree to the suggestion by the Monster Race and Demon Race, to allow them to retreat and making the humans take over the fight against Xing Tian.

“Shameless brat, what on earth are you doing?” Mu Qingfeng was speechless. At this rate, humankind would perish.

“Pavilion Master Mu, stop talking and get up on Bi Fang to help Ping Yang!” Fang Zhengzhi did not respond to Mu Qingfeng and leaped up to the back of Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five.

“Help Ping Yang?” Mu Qingfeng was slightly stunned but soon regained his senses and leaped onto Bi Fang’s back to join Ping Yang.

“Roar!” Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five roared and breathed out a thick gust of golden haze from his mouth. In a blink of an eye, he shrouded Xing Tian and the other people in the haze.

“Attack!”

“Attack!”

“...”

Roars were heard.

As the roars sounded continuously, the golden haze spread outward and the Monster Race and Demon Race could no longer see what was taking place.

“We can’t see clearly anymore?”

“What is happening inside?”

“Did Xing Tian kill Fang Zhengzhi and the other humans?”

“This brat is extremely cunning but he agreed to our terms. Is he really stupid or does he have other plans?”

The sight of the Monster Race and Demon Race was blocked by the golden haze. They could not see what was happening inside and could only hear the roars.

“Who cares, I don’t believe Fang Zhengzhi and the rest can kill Xing Tian!”

“Even if they manage to kill him, it is worth celebrating!”

“That’s right, no matter who dies, we will benefit from the outcome.”

Although the Monster Race and Demon Race did not understand why they agreed to this term, they could not think of how Fang Zhengzhi and the rest could survive.

If that was the case, what did they have to worry about?

...

In the thick golden haze, Fang Zhengzhi was standing on the top of Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five’s head, Yan Xiu was standing on Monster Emperor Baizhi’s back while Ping Yang and Mu Qingfeng were riding on Bi Fang.

Chi Guyan, on the other hand, had turned into a gigantic white girl with a snake tail, floating in the middle of the sky.

They surrounded Xing Tian from four directions.

“Fang Zhengzhi, do you want to fight to your death with Xing Tian?” Mu Qingfeng was slightly worried when he saw this formation.

He was not afraid of death.

He just thought that it was not worth dying like that.

In order to give the Monster Race and Demon Race a chance in the future, they had to fight with all their might. This did not look like a wise choice.

“I am not stupid,” said Fang Zhengzhi

“Then why are you doing this?” Mu Qingfeng did not understand.

“Listen to my command, surround him but don’t attack.” Fang Zhengzhi did not bother explaining further.

“Surround him but don’t attack?”

“Alright!”

“Roger.”

Chi Guyan, Yan Xiu and the rest followed Fang Zhengzhi’s commands. None of them attacked Xing Tian. However, that did not mean that Xing Tian would not attack them.

Instantly, Xing Tian came right at Fang Zhengzhi.

“How unlucky.” Fang Zhengzhi sighed and fled into the thick golden haze with Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five. Meanwhile, he struck his sword.

Boom! Xing Tian froze on the spot as he got struck by the sword radiance.

After that, Xing Tian strangely did not continue attacking Fang Zhengzhi and Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five. Instead, he turned and went for Yan Xiu and the rest.

“Run!” Fang Zhengzhi’s voice echoed through the golden haze.

“Alright!” Yan Xiu and Monster Emperor Baizhi fled into the thick golden haze after hearing Fang Zhengzhi’s shout. They disappeared instantly in the golden haze.

“...” Mu Qingfeng was stunned.

Of course, he regained his senses quickly as Xing Tian was sprinting towards him after losing track of Yan Xiu.

So, it was his turn to run, right?

Mu Qingfeng was about to run like Yan Xiu, before he heard Fang Zhengzhi’s voice coming from the thick golden haze.

“Pavilion Master Mu, hold on!”

“What? Hold... hold on? Not run?!” Mu Qingfeng could not react. What the f*ck?

‘All of you have fled.’

‘And you want me to hold on over here?!’
