“It seems like you aren’t going to surrender the Penta-coloured Wonder Flowers.” The woman nodded gently, surprisingly unfazed by Fang Zhengzhi’s words. She simply nced at Fang Zhengzhi emotionlessly as if she was just a bystander.
Fang Zhengzhi smiled. After spending some time in the Holy Region, he had familiarized himself with the principles here.
Integrity of obviously important!
However, blindly upholding one’s integrity was a stupid thing to do.
The woman definitely wasn’t tolerating him because she was the leader of Ling Yun Tower. It was because she was wary of something. However, Fang Zhengzhi wasn’t sure if she was wary of his strength or the Penta-coloured Wonder Flowers.
Before he could be certain... returning the Penta-coloured Wonder Flowers was as na?ve as abandoning his weapon.
“Haha, I’m willing to return it, but I hope that you can invite Yu Er out, so I can ask her about the truthfulness of your answers. If you aren’t lying, I’ll hand over the flowers willingly.” Fang Zhengzhi spoke his mind.
“No.” The woman shook her head without any consideration.
Her stand was clear. Since she had already answered three questions, she was not going to respond to any of Fang Zhengzhi’s questions or demands.
“Nothing bad will happen if she shows herself, unless, there are some unspeakable secrets involved?”
“This is Ling Yun Tower’s private affair.”
“Then I hope you can ept me as a disciple.”
“You want to join Ling Yun Tower?”
“That’s right. Once I find out about the truth, I’ll leave the sect. I don’t really mind doing that.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded.
“Interesting. It appears that the rumors about your shamelessness are true!” The woman was startled to hear Fang Zhengzhi, but she quickly regained herposure.
“That’s just an undeserved reputation, you don’t have to praise me. It’s easy for a person to be too arrogant if he receives too manypliments.” Fang Zhengzhi waved his hand and replied with a helpless expression.
“You aren’t modest at all.”
“You could really consider my decision. You have seen how strong I am, so I could definitely ace any of your tests. Furthermore, there are too many female disciples in Ling Yun Tower. Over time, there would be an imbnce between Yin and Yang. I could help with that by providing a strand of masculinity for Ling Yun Tower.” Fang Zhengzhi continued speaking as he looked at the woman, almost if he was actually going to join Ling Yun Tower.
Imbnce between Yin and Yang?
A strand of masculinity!
Even though Ping Yang was feeling upset, she couldn’t help butugh when she heard Fang Zhengzhi.
“Pfftt!”
Lin Mubai shook his head helplessly. Fang Zhengzhi was probably the only person in the Holy Region capable of saying such a thing.
A person could be shameless. However, Fang Zhengzhi’s level of shamelessness felt unsurpassable.
Of course, Lin Mubai was used to Fang Zhengzhi’s shamelessness, so he wasn’t too surprised.
Furthermore, even though he was shameless, his strength was terrifying.
He was the first of his kind.
“You’re shameless!”
“Ling Yun Tower has always epted female disciples only, and yet he wants to join Ling Yun Tower? Furthermore, how could he say that there’s an imbnce between Yin and Yang at Ling Yun Tower?!”
“I’ve never seen such a shameless person before!”
Ping Yang and Lin Mubai weren’t the only people who were taken aback by Fang Zhengzhi’s suggestion. Even the disciples of Ling Yun Tower who were badly injured couldn’t control their temper anymore.
Even Cang Yue, who knew about Fang Zhengzhi’s personality, was extremely upset.
However, after a couple seconds of speechlessness, the woman didn’t get angry. Instead, she seemed to be considering about Fang Zhengzhi’s suggestion.
“Alright, I’ll do as you said. I will set the test for you. If you could pass it, I’ll allow you to join Ling Yun Tower!”
“...”
“...”
Everyone was stunned, including Ping Yang and Lin Mubai. They had never expected this to happen.
“Join Ling Yun Tower?”
“Is this really the time for that?”
“Could this get more ridiculous?”
These were the thoughts of Ping Yang, Lin Mubai, the disciples of Ling Yun Tower, and even Fang Zhengzhi.
Fang Zhengzhi had just experienced the most awkward moment in the world. He made a joke that the woman couldn’t possibly agree to, but she actually did.
What was he going to do now?
Was he going to p himself and say that he didn’t want to join Ling Yun Tower anymore?
Fang Zhengzhi obviously wouldn’t do that.
After all, he was a man that ‘honored’ his words. He would never go back on his words unless he had no other choices.
“Did I screw up?” Fang Zhengzhi dismissed that possibility. He wasn’t na?ve enough to believe that the leader of Ling Yun Tower would allow him to join the sect and then quit the sect as he wished.
Something smelled fishy!
There was either something wrong, or this was a trap.
Fang Zhengzhi couldn’t read her mind, but he knew that this was a peculiar situation. One wrong move and he would end up on a path of no return.
Under normal circumstances, the fight between him and the leader of Ling Yun Tower should have started a long time ago.
However, this woman had remained calm ever since her appearance. It almost felt like she was doing it deliberately.
She answered his three questions patiently, then she was even calm enough to discuss about the entrance test after he failed to keep his promise.
Fang Zhengzhi didn’t know what was going on, but one thing was for certain. There was something about him that the leader of Ling Yun Tower was wary of.
What was he going to do if he couldn’t figure it out?
Fang Zhengzhi’s solution was simple. He was going to do it!
“As you wish!” Fang Zhenzhi had nothing to lose, so he was going to risk it all in order to obtain what he desired.
“Ok, the test is simple. Since you’ve fought my disciples, you should know that Ling Yun Tower has a unique understanding of Dao. I shall consider it a pass if you could do as they did. If that happens, I’ll tell you everything about Yu Er, is that alright?” Said the woman as she pointed at Ling Yun Tower’s disciples. She seemed to have already known that Fang Zhengzhi would agree to her suggestion
“What if I can’t do it?” Fang Zhengzhi asked.
“Then you would be given the same two options as before.”
“Aren’t you afraid that I would go back on my words?”
“Haha, that depends on whether you are capable of doing that.” The womanughed and pointed towards the sky. A golden radiance appeared on her finger, as if it was the sun. At the same moment, the top three floors of Ling Yun Tower seemed to have been activated by that radiance.
Buzz!
A vast and ancient aura surged out of Ling Yun Tower. A dazzling golden light descended from the sky and engulfed Fang Zhengzhi, Ping Yang, Lin Mubai, and even all the disciples of Ling Yun Tower.
“You might not be aware that Ling Yun Tower is actually a top-tier treasure. Apart from being waterproof and fireproof, you should have gotten a taste of its defensive power already. By the way, it is called “Ling Yun Realm”. You can ask him... About its ability.” Said the woman as she pointed at Lin Mubai casually.
“Ling Yun Realm?! That’s Ling Yun Realm?!” Lin Mubai opened his eyes wide with disbelief as he stared at the golden radiance above his head.
“Didn’t you see it at the Ten Mile Lake outside of me Capital City a dozen years ago?” The woman replied calmly.
“Yes... I’ve seen it... I...” Lin Mubai couldn’t continue his sentence as if he just recalled something terrifying.
“Ling Yun Tower obviously has its own hidden cards in order to survive in the Holy Region.”
“Hidden card? How is this merely a hidden card. I’ve always thought that Ling Yun Realm belonged to Leader Lan...” Lin Mubai smiled bitterly. However, he suddenly eximed, “Impossible, this is impossible. You could kill us easily with the Ling Yun Realm, in that case, why are you wasting your time with us?”
“Unless... this Ling Yun Realm isn’tplete?” Fang Zhengzhi chimed in as he looked up at the golden light.
“Haha, Fang Zhnegzhi, you’re really clever!” The woman suddenlyughed and nced at Fang Zhengzhi again. “That’s right, my Ling Yun Realm isn’tplete. However, it could easily trap you for a dozen days. More importantly, it is more than enough to kill Ping Yang and Lin Mubai.”
“Are you threatening me?” Fang Zhengzhi’s expression turned cold. He never liked to be threatened, especially if it involved his friends.
“I’m not really threatening you. At the very least, you could choose to live or die.” The woman shook her head and continued, “I am giving you a chance to discover the truth, but you have to do it my way. If you are going to give up halfway through, you will have to pay the price. That’s because we are at Ling Yun Tower, and I... I am Ling Yun Tower’s leader, Qian Ye. At Ling Yun Tower, I’m the one who sets the rules!”
Just as she said that, Ling Yun Tower’s gate openedpletely. One by one, the disciples of Ling Yun Tower, all wearing different colored dresses, rushed out through the gate.
They looked like thousands of blossoming flowers!
It was a spectacr sight, but it was also filled with cold, murderous intentions. This was because every disciple was holding a sword as chilly as their expressions.
The golden light hovering above Ling Yun Tower seemed like a gigantic curtain covered the earth. It felt ancient and limitless.
Almost 200 disciples were standing orderly in eight directions, each direction representing a “pole”. The strongest disciples, those wearing red and purple dresses, stood at the front. The disciples in white were behind them, while the those in green were at the back. Their positions were differentiated clearly.
Most importantly, this didn’t seem like a normal octupole! This was because there was a gap in between the eight poles, or rather, the center of the eight formations was empty.
That position... was exactly where the leader of Ling Yun Tower, Qian Ye, was standing at.
“Octupole Formation? No, is it the Nine Stars Formation? Well... That isn’t seem like it...” Fang Zhengzhi was analyzing the formation as quickly as he could.
Ping Yang was on her guard, gripping her zing Qilin Spear tightly. She seemed ready for an all-out battle at any time. Lin Mubai was also tensing up. As an emperor, he naturally had the aura of a ruler.
However, when he stood before Qian Ye, it seemed like Qian Ye was the true ruler.
She felt extremely powerful.
Maybe, just as she had stated, since she was the leader of Ling Yun Tower, she was the one who set the rules here!
“Fang Zhengzhi, the test has begun, and you have topletely synchronize with their ‘Dao’. Of course, you could counter their ‘Dao’ with your own, but that means you have failed the test. In that case, you will have to either surrender the Penta-coloured Wonder Flowers andplete three tasks for Ling Yun Tower, or you’ll have to die... Or Ping Yang and Lin Mubai will have to die!” Qian Ye looked at Fang Zhengzhi and said that calmly as she pointed towards the disciples of Ling Yun Tower.
“That’s impossible! The disciples of Ling Yun Tower are at least at Rebirth State, and each of them would haveprehended more than 10 different Daos. Those in the Sage State would haveprehended more Dao. There are almost 200 disciples here, meaning that they haveprehended over 2,000 Daos in total. There are at least over 1,000 Daos even if we exclude the repeated ones. No one could possibly do that!” Lin Mubai chimed in before Fang Zhengzhi could say a word.
“That’s why I’ve said that he must be able to understand Dao in a unique way just like my disciples if he wants to join Ling Yun Tower. Luck... Will eventually run out!” Qian Ye waved her hand and fixed her gaze on Fang Zhengzhi, waiting for his reply.
