    When Vige Chief Meng Bai heard Mrs Li’s incessant nagging, he instantly began to frown.


    Usually, he could easily turn a deaf ear to Mrs Li’s words, but today wasn’t quite the same. This pile of animals by right belonged entirely to Fang Zhengzhi himself.


    He had already, with great difficulty, persuaded Fang Zhengzhi to change his mind, if any further changes urred, the conclusion wouldn’t be as simple anymore.


    When the other vigers heard Mrs Li’sints, they also became rather unhappy. Vige Chief Meng Bai deration to distribute the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog to the Fang family was something everybody had already expected and had noints about.


    After all, when Fang Zhengzhi entered the hunting squad, all the prey he hunted belonged to him. These words were announced by the vige chief in front of everybody.


    Furthermore, the Southern Mountain Vige had barely any yield after being in the mountains for such a long time. If it weren’t for Fang Zhengzhi, the other animals wouldn’t have been caught, not even mentioning the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog.


    "Mrs Li, all these hunted prey today actually belongs to Zhengzhi!"


    "Indeed, it is already very kind of Zhengzhi to offer to split these animals with everyone."


    A few of the vigers standing beside Mrs Li quietly began to remind her.


    "Since Mrs Li doesn’t exactly agree with this distribution method, I think I can make some changes!" Fang Zhengzhi stepped out of the crowd at this moment.


    Vige Chief Meng Bai was taken aback, but he didn’t attempt to stop him. Because, Fang Zhengzhi was now qualified to speak in the Southern Mountain Vige.


    The other vigers, seeing that Fang Zhengzhi had spoken, also looked on curiously.


    "Ah, at least Zhengzhi can reason properly. Luckily auntie didn’t take care of you for nothing. Quick, tell everybody, what changes should be made!" Mrs Li was overjoyed when she saw Fang Zhengzhi step out. When she heard the vigers’ discussions, she had also thought of giving up. But now it seemed that Zhengzhi was still a kid after all, how could he actually contend against adults?


    "I think we should distribute the other animals to the rest, then my family and the Li family will share this Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog together. What do you think auntie Li?" Fang Zhengzhi winked a few times at Mrs Li.


    "Sharing the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog among my family and your family?" Mrs Li never imagined that Fang Zhengzhi would actually be so generous. She immediately grinned delightedly, "That makes sense, I agree with this form of distribution!"


    The rest of the vigers also heard what Fang Zhengzhi had said. Their eyes widened. Ipletely don’t understand this. Wasn’t he highly intelligent just now, how did he suddenly be so dumb?


    Qin Xuelian also became quite worried, and wanted to step out to prevent this.


    Unfortunately, she was held back by Fang Houde.


    "Don’t worry!" Even though Fang Houde was simple and down-to-earth, he knew that his son was indeed not stupid. Since Fang Zhengzhi had said these, he definitely had his reasons.


    Even if they really had to share half of the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog with Mrs Li, as long as it was reasonable, Fang Zhengzhi would also approve of it.


    "That means, Auntie Li has agreed to it?" Fang Zhengzhi continued to ask.


    "I agree, of course I agree!" Mrs Li nodded, her head bobbing like a chicken pecking on its feed.


    "Sure! Then let’s invite vige chief and everyone else to bear witness to this moment. Today, the prey over here won’t be distributed to Auntie Li, then, I’ll share a portion of the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog with Auntie Li!" Fang Zhengzhi nodded and looked towards Vige Chief Meng Bai.


    "Ok!" Vige Chief Meng Bai nodded. Since Fang Zhengzhi himself volunteered to distribute the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog, he didn’t bother to unnecessarily involve himself any further.


    The rest of the vigers also began to nod their heads one by one, looking at Fang Zhengzhi with an expression of someone looking at a fool.


    Mrs Li naturally didn’t have any furtherments and instantly epted.


    Then...


    Fang Zhengzhi cleared his throat, and began to speak once again.


    "Then... may I invite Uncle Qingshan, to distribute the tuft of fur on top of the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog’s head to Auntie Li!"


    "Pff!" Ding Qingshan was drinking his water at this moment, and abruptly spat it out.


    The other vigers were also taken aback. When they managed to react, their looks that bore the expression of one looking at a fool instantly shifted onto Mrs Li.


    "A tuft of fur?!"


    "This... Ha ha ha, he distributed a tuft of fur!"


    "This kid Zhengzhi, I already said that he had potential, looks like I wasn’t wrong!"


    The vigers all began tough. Nobody criticised Fang Zhengzhi’s idea. Because, if it were them, they would have done the same. Except...


    This idea, how did he even think of it?


    Mrs Li’s face was ck as night, her thick, muscr arms began to quiver. She finally understood the meaning behind Fang Zhengzhi’s words just now.


    "Fang Zhengzhi!" Mrs Li’s fist tightened furiously. She was defeated by a seven year old kid, moreover, it was a very obvious disy of intellectual defeat. Her anger almost caused blood to spurt out of her mouth.


    She hated, hated herself for her impulsive actions just now. How could she have not stated clearly before, the hog had to be split equally into half? At the very least, receiving one metal tooth was also not too bad either!


    But it was already toote.


    The words had already left her mouth. She wanted to shamelessly go back on her words, start bawling, "Bully!"... But, going back on her words to a seven year old kid , shouting that she was bullied by a seven year old kid?


    No matter how thick her skin was, she really couldn’t bring herself to do it.


    "Hmph!" Mrs Li snorted coldly, forcefully stomped her feet, turned around and dashed into the crowd. In a sh, not even a shadow of her could be seen. She really didn’t have the face to stay here anymore.


    "Mrs Li, this tuft of fur, do you still want it? Looks like she doesn’t want it anymore, just right... make this into an ink brush!" Fang Zhengzhi looked at the rapidly disappearing Mrs Li, stroking the tuft of fur on the Metal-Toothed Thorn Hog as if it was a piece of treasure.


    ...


    Deep into the night, a bird, its body white as snow and its ws sharp as a knife, once again shot out from the Southern Mountain Vige’s Hall of Dao and instantly disappeared into the night sky. Its speed was amazingly fast...


    The morning after, within the Northern Lands Divine Constabry, in a beautiful antique-styled study room, Lolita peered at the illustration in front of her, slightly lost in thought.


    "This formation isn’tplicated, but it blends in knowledge from the Eight Diagrams Tactics... if it was really drawn by that little bastard, then... the previous case of solving the Illustration of All Creation can now be confirmed!"


    Lolita took another look at the illustration. Light shed within her bright pupils.


    "Come!"


    "Missus, what do you need?" A soldier instantly walked in from outside the study and knelt down on one knee.


    "Make preparations. There’s somewhere I want to go."


    "Yes Missus! But... the Lord is now in the capital city, I fear that there are still ten days before he would be able to return. Should we wait for the Lord before setting off?" The soldier instantlyplied with her order, then gingerly asked.


    "Ten days? Ok, I understand!" Lolita nodded. Looking out at the rays of light from the rising sun, the edges of her mouth curved into a slight smile.


    Fang Zhengzhi? Let me see where else you can run to this time little bastard!
