Chapter 134: The Desting Gale Freezes River Yi

    At this moment, even Yan Xiu looked at Fang Zhengzhi and Chi Guyan, his face filled with shock. He really couldn’t understand why would the pride of the Heavens, Chi Guyan, suddenly make such an invitation towards Fang Zhengzhi?


    Sitting together!


    Yan Xiu wasn’t one who valued family backgrounds, but, these two people in front of him...


    One was the daughter of the Northern Desert Divine Constabry, the number one talented girl in the Great Xia Dynasty, the Double Dragon Roll Champion, the future assigned number one marshal of the Great Xia Dynasty.


    How about the other?


    He was just a schr from a faraway vige, who had never even entered a Hall of Dao before.


    These two people, no matter how he looked, shouldn’t be able to interact with one another, right?


    Furthermore, most importantly...


    Not too long ago, Chi Guyan had even sent out a criminal demand order. The usation and harming power in her words didn’t require further guessing, but now...


    Wasn’t the change in attitude too fast?


    Just because Fang Zhengzhi attained the River of Trust Capital double roll champion?


    No matter how he looked, he didn’t seem quite possible.


    "Don’t tell me that between them... there really is a secret that nobody can know about?" For the first time, Yan Xiu seemed to feel that his brain wasn’t useful enough.


    The officials of the Northern Desert five capitals also dropped their jaws. How can a person who was only a double roll champion of a capital examination receive such treatment?


    That seat...


    Other than the master of the Divine Constabry, only people with statuses such as King Duan or the crown prince would be able to sit there, right?


    An ordinary civilian...


    Why?


    ...


    Actually, Fang Zhengzhi also really wanted to ask why. Because, once Chi Guyan’s words left her mouth, he felt the deep implications of Chi Guyan’s words.


    Looking at Chi Guyan’s clear yet bright eyes.


    Too cold at the top?


    This top was really high up!


    As the saying goes, evil stems from not being content, mistakes stem from greed, from only when one knows how to be content can one be truly happy. The meaning was clear. The root of all evils and mistakes was not knowing contentment.


    Chi Guyan’s invitation seemed to be raising him high, and giving him the highest honour and unlimited glory. But, this glory seemed to be approaching dusk.


    Do I have the ability now to sit at that main seat?


    Definitely not.


    Hence, Fang Zhengzhi’s current situation was just as she said. It’s too cold at the top, furthermore, it was a very bone-chilling frost.


    Now, he had also suddenly understood why Chi Guyan would send out the criminal demand order. From the very start, Chi Guyan had intended for him to stand at the top.


    Without that criminal demand order, naturally, the incident of schrs from the five capitals gathering at the River of Trust Capital wouldn’t had happened, and such a difficult capital examination wouldn’t happen.


    But...


    He still attained the River of Trust Capital double roll champion.


    Such an oue naturally wasn’t what Chi Guyan wished to see. Hence, at the great feast, Chi Guyan once again ced him at the top.


    But this time...


    It was really a little too high.


    If I sat down there, I believe the schrs of the entire Great Xia Dynasty would be discontented.


    The final results would be very obvious. In the entire Northern Desert, or even the entire Great Xia Dynasty, people who wanted to sit at this seat to be sessful overnight would challenge Fang Zhengzhi. Then, tell everybody in the world, look, I have defeated Fang Zhengzhi, the person who sat at the main seat at the great feast of the Divine Constabry...


    How domineering, how satisfying.


    As for Fang Zhengzhi? He would undoubtedly be a stepping stone that all the schrs under the world would wish to step upon.


    After the stepping stone had been stepped on over and over again, so many times that it loses its value, it would likely be the time when it was kicked away.


    At that time, whether it was death or disability...


    It was really hard to predict.


    Fang Zhengzhi understood this point. After a moment of shock, Chi Hou and the officials of the five capitals naturally also understood this point. Hence, after thinking about the criminal demand order that Chi Guyan sent out not too long ago, and then thinking about Chi Guyan specially pointing out Fang Zhengzhi at the great feast a moment ago...


    The shock on their faces began to gradually turn into mock and ridicule.


    Lu Yusheng hadn’t understood, but, he had seen its effect. Because, he could already see the bright glow that shed in the eyes of the surrounding schrs.


    That was a cold glow which appeared when a wild beast met its prey.


    At this moment. Yan Xiu also understood. His lips parted slightly. Just as he prepared to stop Fang Zhengzhi, he saw Fang Zhengzhi shaking his head lightly towards him.


    Fang Zhengzhi naturally knew that refusal was an inferior n.


    Not even mentioning that after he rejected, Chi Guyan might even punish him for being "unable to differentiate good from bad", just this action of rejecting alone might not even be possible.


    If he was Chi Guyan.


    Then, definitely, she would invite over, and over, and over again...


    And when that time came, Chi Guyan would naturally be respected for valuing meritocracy. As for himself? Most likely, he would be a criminal condemned by everybody?


    Both ways, he could be killed by everybody.


    The difference was, one was being killed at the top, the other was being killed deep down the valley.


    "Checkmate!"


    Sitting meant death, not sitting also meant death!


    "Young Master Fang, please!" Chi Guyan saw that Fang Zhengzhi didn’t move, and bowed lightly once again. That attitude definitely seemed like a suprememander that thirsted for worthy people.


    When the officials at the feast witnessed this, they each began to nod.


    "The Double Dragon Roll Champion shocks the work, indeed, that is a well-deserved reputation!"


    "Just a double roll champion of a capital examination would receive such treatment, if we could contribute greatly to the Northern battlefield, I really wonder what would we get?"


    "A general would have a tiger daughter. Chi Hou’s teachings are indeed impressive!"


    Nobody paid further attention as to why Fang Zhengzhi would sit on the main seat. Because, they had seen a true general andmander that respected her people.


    Chi Hou at this moment also stood up from his seat and nodded lightly towards Fang Zhengzhi, his face as gentle as the spring breeze.


    Fang Zhengzhi knew that at this moment, he had already taken one step into the door of death. At the great feast of the Divine Constabry, he was just a de of grass that could be crushed by anybody.


    His abilities were too low.


    Time, location, and people...


    He didn’t possess any of them.


    Eight years ago, when he defeated Chi Guyan in his mastern, by dragging time, he had the advantage of time. He also utilised the advantage of location, which was the path below the stage. Furthermore, he ran away unexpectedly.


    Naturally, he could escape even from Heaven.


    But now?


    Without possessing anything, how could he break out of this dead end?


    Fang Zhengzhi looked at Chi Guyan who was only an inch away from him, and felt the faintughter in her bright and clear eyes. He suddenly felt that, perhaps all along, he had never escaped from the palms Chi Guyan’s hands.


    From the moment she sent out the criminal demand order, to the Divine Constabry inviting schrs who made the first-ss roll of the River of Trust Capital examination to the great feast.


    All of these were within Chi Guyan’s control.


    As for him, one step at a time, he walked into the dead end set by Chi Guyan.


    A light gust of wind blew across, lightly blowing up Chi Guyan’s hair. The edges of her dress also billowed in the wind, it was very beautiful and mesmerising, like the most beautiful flower in the wind.


    But, this flower contained thorns that shed with a cold glint.


    Fang Zhengzhi suddenly had an urge.


    An urge to pluck out all of the thorns from this flower.


    One thorn by one thorn, plucking all of them out!


    Just like the clothes she wore on her body.


    Then, leaving one pretty flower of unparalleled beauty, and her blooming, was all controlled by his thoughts.


    One thought, the flower bloomed, another thought, the flower closed.


    Since everything led to death, then what was he to be afraid of?


    Since it was a dead end, why not die to the end?


    The desting gale freezes River Yi, the doomed hero has made his death wish...


    As he thought, Fang Zhengzhi’s eyes suddenly lit up. Then, this light expanded in his eyes at a horrifying speed, just as if he had seen the brightest ray of light in the darkness.


    "I know!"


    Didn’t Chi Guyan want him to feel the cold at the top?


    Then, he would stand even higher, a height so high that even Chi Guyan wouldn’t be able to control.


    Fang Zhengzhi felt that he was betting. He betted that Chi Guyan didn’t want him to die yet. Even though he didn’t have a hundred percent confidence about this, he had at least ny.


    After all, with Chi Guyan’s abilities and status.


    If she really wanted him to die.


    Eight years ago, he would have already been dead. Then, how could he survive till now?


    Wanting him to feel the frost at the top, yet, not wanting him to die immediately. This was definitely the attitude of a hunter.


    It was said: When a sessful hunter catches a fearsome prey for the first time, he wouldn’t immediately kill the prey, and would instead use various methods to incite this prey and analyse its reactions. Because, he needed to understand the habits of such a prey.


    Then, catch even more prey of the same kind.


    No matter how Chi Guyan thought, one point was for sure.


    She didn’t want him to die yet...


    Since that was so, then what was he to be scared of?!


    After being clear about one thing, everything became clear. Fang Zhengzhi looked at Chi Guyan who was an inch away from him, then looked at her eyes which were bright as stars, and the edges of his mouth gradually curved into a smile.


    The smile was very bright, just like the sunny spring after the snow had melted...


    Chi Guyan was very close to Fang Zhengzhi, so close that she could feel Fang Zhengzhi’s breathing. Because, she had to ensure that her words were fully passed into Fang Zhengzhi’s ears.


    Furthermore...


    It mustn’t be heard by a third person.


    Hence, this was the distance that allowed her to achieve this.


    Then, she saw Fang Zhengzhi, who had been carrying a bitter expression the entire time, smile. Furthermore, he smiled very brightly.


    She really didn’t quite understand how could this shameless bastardugh at such a time? Don’t tell me he had already given up struggling?


    Just as she thought, she suddenly felt a warmth on her hand.


    Then, lowering her head to look...


    On her hand, there was another big hand?!


    This hand was very big, but, it wasn’t rough, and there weren’t the calluses of war that her father’s hand had. On the opposite, it even felt warm and smooth.


    Furthermore, she could even feel that when his big hand held onto her small hand, it even seemed to rubbed her hand on purpose.


    That seemed to be stroking...


    "Shameless bastard, how dare you!" Chi Guyan swore inwardly, and instinctively wanted to withdraw her hand. But, that big hand was too strong, and tightly gripped onto her tiny hand.


    Chi Guyan looked at Fang Zhengzhi, and realised that at this moment, he was gritting his teeth. It seemed that her attempted withdrawal just now caused him to expend quite some energy. But, why is he stillughing?
