Fang Zhengzhi was actually a little curious about Nine Pinnacles Mountain’s new leader. However, he wasn’t too surprised.
After all, he had killed their Great Elder when he left Nine Pinnacles Mountain. In that case, it was only reasonable that they elected a new leader.
However…
Bai Fei’s lip language left him a little dumbstruck.

Your mother is calling you home to eat?!
Fang Zhengzhi didn’t manage to react to that.


‘Could Nine Pinnacles Mountain’s new leader Bai Fei know my mom?’
‘Who the hell are you?’
‘Wait a minute!’
‘No, it isn’t ‘Your mother is calling you home for dinner’. It’s actually a bunch of random words that sound similar.’
Fang Zhengzhi obviously wasn’t that dumb, so he quickly figured out what was going on after a brief moment.
That was because he realized that Bai Fei’s lips were moving too quickly. It seemed more like he was chanting some sort of special ritual spells rather than saying something.
However, Fang Zhengzhi was a little confused because…
‘Why is Bai Fei chanting spells at me?’
While Fang Zhengzhi was engrossed in his thoughts, he suddenly noticed a flash of light in Bai Fei’s eyes. It was a tiny spot of light, even a little unnoticeable in fact.
However, Fang Zhengzhi’s attention was completely attracted by that spot of light precisely because it was too small and unnoticeable.


Then, he noticed that it seemed to have turned into a shadow. It was an extremely normal view of someone’s back, yet he couldn’t help but keep watching.
It was a strange feeling, just like how you would spend more time looking and focusing on something blurry. A person would unknowingly waste his time to look and think about it.
This was Fang Zhengzhi’s current state of mind because he was so curious about both the spot of light in Bai Fei’s eye and the shadow it had transformed into.
Then…
He felt the world in front of his eyes changing into something new. The surroundings slowly became fuzzy and he was getting dizzy.
Fang Zhengzhi was losing his focus because of this feeling, and he subconsciously tried to clear his head and figure out his surroundings.
However, for some reason, the more he tried to do that, the harder it was to see things clearly, which in turn made him try even harder. His thought process formed a loop without him realizing it.
Fang Zhengzhi didn’t know how long was he stuck in such a state, but he knew that there was a woman standing right in front of him.
A white dress revealed her curvy body, and her long, black hair was hanging around her waist like a waterfall. She also had bright eyes.

It’s you?
Fang Zhengzhi had already seen this woman in white a few times before. She wasn’t a complete stranger, but he didn’t know her well either.



You shouldn’t be here now.
The woman in white said flatly.

I shouldn’t be here? Where… Is this?
Fang Zhengzhi was a little startled, but he quickly realized that something was off.
That was because the woman actually spoke. In fact, this could be considered the first time that she had spoken to him.

You should go back.
He heard her voice again.

Wait, you have to first tell me who you are.


…

Fang Zhengzhi felt like everything was going against his will.
This was because he did not get an answer to his question. As soon as the woman in white said that, his vision became blurred again. The surroundings had reverted back to before where he couldn’t see anything clearly and that gave him a strong desire to see things clearly.
However, a sudden thought interrupted him.
‘No!’


‘This is an illusion!’
When Fang Zhengzhi realized that, the Origin Energy in his body began seething. In order to get out of the illusion, his body needed to ‘explode’.
Of course, it didn’t mean that he literally had to explode. It just meant that his emotional state needed to go through a drastic change.
As his Origin Energy surged, the world before him suddenly became clear. Everything went back to normal and he heard the yelling and shouting again.
He caught Bai Fei’s expression changing slightly, but it didn’t last for very long before disappearing without a trace.

It’s an illusion, not an incantation?!
Although Bai Fei managed to cover up his expression, Fang Zhengzhi was still certain that Bai Fei wasn’t chanting the incantation of a ritual. Rather, it was an incantation to cast a spell that was similar to a spiritual illusion.
‘How dare he cast an illusion on me?’
‘Bai Fei…’
‘Where the hell did this guy come from!’
Fang Zhengzhi became a little mad. He felt that it was time to teach Bai Fei a lesson and give Nine Pinnacles Mountain another push so that they would start getting serious.


However, several Nine Pinnacles Mountain’s elders rushed out from behind Bai Fei before he could start yelling.
Moreover, there were close to 200 disciples that rushed out as well. They had obviously all received clear orders from Bai Fei to attack with their full force while Fang Zhengzhi was trapped in the illusion.

Eh?
Fang Zhengzhi originally thought that Bai Fei wanted to take advantage of him with the illusion. However, it now seemed like Bai Fei had already given out orders before he cast the illusion and didn’t mean to take advantage of him at all.
‘What’s going on?’
Fang Zhengzhi couldn’t wrap his head around this. However, it was his habit to put problems that he couldn’t figure out aside temporarily, and it was no exception this time. Nevertheless, he’d definitely pay Bai Fei back for casting an illusion on him.
Having said that, this was not the best time for revenge.
After all, while the Five Sects of the Holy Region were busy working together against Nangong Nobles, he’d be indirectly helping them and going against the five sects if he suddenly chimed in and attacked Nine Pinnacles Mountain.
Fang Zhengzhi was willful, but that didn’t mean that he was stupid.
He’d definitely take his revenge, however, he needed to change his approach. For example, he could get another party involved so that they could do the dirty work for him.
As the saying went, ‘It’s easy to avoid an open attack but hard to guard against a sneak attack’.
Fang Zhengzhi thought that he could take advantage of his intelligence a little and look for a good opportunity to ‘backstab’ Bai Fei.
Then…
The opportunity seemed to have arrived.
However, it was too sudden and too fast that Fang Zhengzhi could hardly react in time.
That was because the elders and 200 disciples of Nine Pinnacles Mountain didn’t charge towards Nangong Hao. Instead, they stopped in front of Heaven Dao Pavilion and Fu Xi Valley like a tall wall blocking their path.
Fu Xi Valley’s Eight-clawed Silver Dragon Formation was naturally the first to be stopped, and the scene was weird and shocking.
Two elders of Nine Pinnacles Mountain clamped onto the silver dragon from both left and right. They forcefully held the entire silver dragon back with just their solid arms.
Although the two elders were pushed back rapidly and the silver dragon was still advancing, it was obviously only half as fast as before.
Boom! The crashing noises were incessant as the silver hooks that were connected collided against each other. It sounded as if the silver dragon was roaring angrily.
This sudden change left the surrounding disciples dumbfounded.

Nine Pinnacles Mountain stopped Fu Xi Valley?!


What’s going on?!


Those two elders from Nine Pinnacles Mountain are so strong that they could actually stop Fu Xi Valley’s Eight-clawed Silver Dragon Formation?! Are their arms… Forged with metal?

The disciples were confused but they were equally stunned by the two elders’ strength.
On the other hand, Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shanshi, and the rest furrowed their brows because they didn’t understand the intention behind Nine Pinnacles Mountain’s action.
However, at this moment, Bai Fei spoke.

Nangong Hao killed our previous leader, Tian Xing, so he’s our mortal enemy. His life should be ours for the taking!
As compared to his veneer of refinement before, Bai Fei was now exuding an air that seemed like he was unquestionable.

Yours for the taking? You talk big for a little kid. If you aren’t the new leader of Nine Pinnacles Mountain, do you think you could even talk to us?
Mo Shanshi naturally understood what Bai Fei meant very quickly.
However, that was exactly why he was even angrier. After all, Ling Yun Tower was arrogant because of their strength. Hence, he couldn’t tolerate Nine Pinnacles Mountain for doing the same.

Valley Master Mo, are you unhappy with that?
Bai Fei held his hands behind his back and took a step forward as if he wasn’t afraid of Mo Shanshi’s threat.

Yo? Interesting, hahaha… I’ve lived a long time but to be honest, I rarely fought against a junior. Leader Bai, are you picking a fight against me?


You aren’t qualified yet.


Bai Fei, don’t push it too far, you little kid. I’m only willing to lower my position and fight against you because you’re the leader of Nine Pinnacles Mountain!


Is that so? However, I don’t have to accept your offer, right?
Bai Fei smiled and glanced around before continuing,
I’ve said that Nangong Hao’s life is ours for the taking. Anyone who dares to stop us would be Nine Pinnacles Mountain’s enemy!


Bai Fei, how dare you! Do you really think that Fu Xi Valley is afraid of Nine Pinnacles Mountain?
Mo Shanshi was furious when he heard that.
Meanwhile, Mu Qingfeng’s brows knitted together tightly.
Bai Fei’s sudden opposition was obviously out of his expectation because even a fool could understand the current situation.
At such a time, the Five Sects of the Holy Region were fighting internally instead of working together. This seemed unwise and Nine Pinnacles Mountain could end up as the target of criticisms and insults.
However, Bai Fei did that.
In fact, even the elders standing behind did not oppose his orders. Instead, they followed his command wholeheartedly and fought against Fu Xi Valley.
Mu Qingfeng couldn’t figure out what was going on.
If Bai Fei was really such an ‘oblivious’ person, how could he secure the position of Nine Pinnacles Mountain’s leader while the sect was in such a huge mess internally?
Most importantly, even if Bai Fei had really lost his mind temporarily, there were so many elders in Nine Pinnacles Mountain and they couldn’t have lost their minds as well.
‘No!’
‘Something’s wrong!’
Mu Qingfeng felt an extreme sense of crisis instantly. However, before he could even say a word, something strange suddenly happened in the sky.
The Tree of God made of ice suddenly stopped growing. Its thick trunk stood in the sky like a massive heaven-receiving pillar.
Most importantly, there was a dazzling radiance atop the Tree of God. It was red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple.
The seven-colored radiance bloomed in the air and turned into a rainbow. It connected the sky and Heaven Zen Mountain’s peak like a massive rainbow bridge.
It was a beautiful sight.
However, Mu Qingfeng wasn’t in the mood to admire it because he heard an ancient voice as soon as the bridge appeared.
Boom!
It was a thunderous voice.
No one could understand what the voice was saying. However, it was deafening and sounded like it came from an extremely ancient world. Everyone somehow felt like worshipping it.

Oh no, kill Nangong Hao right now!
Mu Qingfeng finally reacted. While they were fighting amongst themselves and hesitating, they had already given Nangong Hao too much time.
After such a long time had passed, Nangong Hao’s plan was definitely well prepared. Although Mu Qingfeng didn’t know what would happen next, he had a strong feeling that it wouldn’t be anything good.

Hahaha… It’s too late, it’s already too late. Us Nangong Nobles could finally take revenge, hahaha…
They heard Nangong Tian’s voice at this moment.
He was stopped by Heaven Dao Pavilion’s Great Elder Yan Yin so he couldn’t help with stopping the crowd that had charged towards Nangong Hao.
However, after seeing this, his anxious expression finally looked a little relieved. It was the relief after seeing the hope of winning.
Boom! Nangong Tian was struck in the chest by someone’s palm and sent flying.
Boom! He crashed into the ground.

You’d die before you can take your revenge!
Yan Yin looked at Nangong Tian with a strong killing intent on his face.

Die? Hahaha… Why would I be afraid of dying? Yan Yin, you’ve underestimated me!
Nangong Tian didn’t seem to be in pain. He still looked excited as if he wasn’t hit at all.
