Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Fang Zhengzhi was laughing too. He was laughing with even more confidence and in greater disdain. He was mocking Lin Ji as though she was a fool.

“Why are you laughing?” Lin Ji felt the chills because of Fang Zhengzhi’s glare and stopped smiling.

“I won’t kill you, but…”

“But what?”

“Even if I don’t kill you, it does not mean to others won’t too. For example… Shan Yu?” As Fang Zhengzhi spoke, he turned to look outside the cave. “Queen of the Southern Region, please come in.”

“Why did you call me?” Shan Yu’s voice was heard and she immediately appeared at the entrance of the cave.

Evidently, Shan Yu did not go too far away, or rather, she never left the entrance of the cave because she could not allow the person who killed her father to run away in front of her eyes.

“Do you want to take revenge?” Fang Zhengzhi pointed at Lin Ji.

“Meng Tian, do you think you can force me to oblige using this method? Impossible! If she really killed me, you will never know where the Source of God is!” Lin Ji’s expression changed but became calm again, except for the fury in her eyes.

“Kill her to take revenge for your father. Since the tomb of the previous King of the Southern Region is nearby, you can use Lin Ji’s head to pay respect to him,” Fang Zhengzhi said calmly.

“Senior… but she…” Shan Yu was stunned as she looked at Fang Zhengzhi and Lin Ji.

This does not mean that she did not want to take revenge, but rather it was because she knew the situation better than anyone else as the Queen of the Southern Region. She would have attacked Lin Ji long ago when Fang Zhengzhi infiltrated the Blood Shadow City, but she did not do so because she had to care for the overall situation.

Not only was very certain that Lin Ji was not captured by her, but she also knew that Lin Ji’s practical value was too high.

“You don’t want to take revenge?” Seeing Shan Yu’s hesitation, Fang Zhengzhi asked again.

“I want to, I really want to, I have been constantly thinking about it. Since the moment Lin Ji killed my Father, I really wanted to kill her with my own hands!” Towards the end of her sentence, Shan Yu showed a sense of hatred that was indescribable by words as she clenched her fists till they turned white.

“Then what are you waiting for?”

“But…”

“She has no more value for me,” said Fang Zhengzhi, who knew what Shan Yu was concerned about.

“Thank you, Senior!” Shan Yu’s body bent forward and was about to kneel on the ground.

However, Shan Yu did not kneel down because Fang Zhengzhi had held her hand and supported her body with great force.

At this moment, the three Settlement Chiefs entered the cave with the Demon Lord and looked at both Shan Yu and Fang Zhengzhi before taking a glance at each other and falling to their knees.

“Your Highness, you can finally die in peace!”

“Senior, on behalf of the people of the Southern Region, we thank you…”

“The people of the Southern Region can finally have our wishes granted by being able to kill this Monster lady!”

The three Settlement Chiefs knelt down on the ground quickly with tears welled up in their eyes and did not wait for Fang Zhengzhi to go up to them.

As the saying went, ‘A man does not shed tears unless deeply hurt’. Men in the Southern Region respected the brave individuals. By kneeling in front of Fang Zhengzhi, the three Settlement Chiefs showed that they sincerely admired him.

Of course, they did not know that…

Fang Zhengzhi did not intend to go up to them as after all, Fang Zhengzhi did not have enough arms to support four people at one go.

“Please rise, Settlement Chiefs. Do you all want to play around with this Monster lady before killing her?” Fang Zhengzhi asked after helping Shan Yu up.

“…”

“…”

Even Shan Yu and the Demon Lord was stunned as they widened their eyes.

“Monster lady, do you want to play?” Fang Zhengzhi reminded with a ‘kind intention’ after seeing the stunned expressions of the three Settlement Chiefs.

“Senior, you must be kidding. We only want to kill her to take revenge for Your Highness!” The three Settlement Chiefs looked at each other and replied.

“How boring, up to you then.” Fang Zhengzhi shrugged and stood at the entrance of the cave.

After hearing this, Lin Ji’s face turned pale because she could evidently feel the intense killing intent exuding from the bodies of Shan Yu and the three Settlement Chiefs.

“Meng Tian, you have to consider this carefully. If you don’t make use of the opportunity now to get the Source of God, you will not have the chance to do so when the real Monsters and Demons arrive in a few months’ time!” Lin Ji clearly did not want to die.

“Senior?” Shan Yu bit her lips after hearing Lin Ji’s words and looked at Fang Zhengzhi with a look of query.

However, Fang Zhengzhi looked as calm as usual and acted as though he had not heard what Lin Ji said.

Shan Yu stopped biting her lips and meanwhile, two daggers that were as black as ink appeared in both of her hands.

“Meng Tian!!!” Lin Ji shouted angrily.

Shan Yu did not probe Fang Zhengzhi further and dashed towards Lin Ji directly with red light radiating like fire on her two daggers.

“Shan Yu, how dare you! If you killed me, humankind would have no…”

Clang!

Lin Ji clearly did not finish her sentence because Shan Yu’s daggers had accurately stabbed her body on her left and right chest.

However…

The daggers did not penetrate her body.

That was because the thick black scales had covered Lin Ji’s entire body. With Shan Yu’s power, she could not have hurt Lin Ji at all.

“Hahaha… You want to kill me? What a jo…”

Slash!

Lin Ji’s laughter stopped and her expression froze. A dagger had been inserted into her left chest.

Blood trickled down the dagger and dripped on the floor.

“You… Meng Tian, you…” Lin Ji refused to believe it but a figure stood behind Shan Yu.

Fang Zhengzhi!

That was not the main thing. The main thing was one of Fang Zhengzhi’s foot was pressing on Shan Yu’s dagger!

Lin Ji gradually looked down at the dagger that was inserted in her chest, then at Fang Zhengzhi who was standing behind Shan Yu, her eyes were bloodshot.

She was confident but meanwhile she was mocking at how inferior Fang Zhengzhi’s tactic was.

Trying to frighten her with Shan Yu?

How was that possible?

Lin Ji was absolutely confident that Fang Zhengzhi’s interest in the Source of God was because of such. She was also sure that Fang Zhengzhi would not kill her.

However, why?

Splat! Another soft sound was heard in the cave.

Meanwhile, Shan Yu’s dagger was kicked by Fang Zhengzhi. It penetrated the black scales on Lin Ji’s body and stabbed her chest.

Blood dripped down again.

“The heart is not the fatal spot for Monsters. To kill them, one has to destroy the Monster Pearl.” Fang Zhengzhi said softly and ignored Lin Ji’s expression.

“Yes, Senior!” Shan Yu was about to bow and say thanks when Fang Zhengzhi grabbed onto her with one hand and dragged her to his back.

“Meng Tian, do you really want to kill me?” Lin Ji stared into Fang Zhengzhi’s eyes and tried to get something out of it.

However, she could not get anything out of it because what she saw was calmness.

“Well, this Monster lady is indeed quite powerful. It would be a little difficult if you try to destroy her Monster Pearl using your tactic. How about this, I will seal her powers first and look for the location of her Monster Pearl, then you can kill her easily.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded at Shan Yu and completely ignored Lin Ji.

“Meng Tian, I will kill you!” Lin Ji could no longer hold in any further after she heard Fang Zhengzhi. The scales grew rapidly over her entire body and the spikes that were as sharp as knife appeared all over her, making eye-piercing sounds as they clashed with the chains on her body.

Besides that, Lin Ji’s head changed significantly. Her eyes turned dark green and something horn-like grew from her head.

Swoosh! A tongue that was split into half protruded from her mouth.

“So you are a small snake?” Fang Zhengzhi looked at the tongue in Lin Ji’s mouth and quickly understood her original form. However, that was not important as the only way to deal with a captive who tried to resist was to slap her with full force.

So…

Fang Zhengzhi slapped her.

He slapped her on her head on which a horn was grown.

Bam!

The floor trembled and cracks appeared from beneath her body and spread all the way to the entrance of the cave like a giant spiderweb.

Meanwhile, Lin Ji’s body stiffened and her twisted expression froze completely as though her soul had left her body.

“Kill me? How?” Fang Zhengzhi looked at Lin Ji with despise.

After he spoke, Lin Ji’s body slammed onto the ground and she was drenched in perspiration

This scene shocked the Demon Lord as it was his first time seeing Fang Zhengzhi perform this tactic.

“One slap?! Just one slap?” The Demon Lord clearly remembered the two strikes made by Fang Zhengzhi in the Blood Shadow City using his sword, and he knew that “Meng Tian” was very powerful.

However, he did not expect him to be so powerful.

“The Monster Pearl is in her stomach.” Fang Zhengzhi did not take any extra look at Lin Ji and walked behind Shan Yu.

Meanwhile, the scales and horn on Lin Ji disappeared as she returned to her normal appearance.

“Meng Tian, you… are indeed cruel. However, if you kill me, you would lose your final opportunity, humankind… is destined to disappear from the earth!” Lin Ji breathed heavily and her entire body trembled. She stared at Fang Zhengzhi with an extremely twisted expression.

“Make your move.” Fang Zhengzhi was not moved at all.

“Yes!” Shan Yu nodded. Without hesitation, she withdrew her two targets and stabbed them into Lin Ji’s chest with a speed of the lightning.

“Ah… Meng Tian, I will not let you off until the day of my death!” Lin Ji shouted as blood tricked down the side of her mouth.

Fang Zhengzhi, on the other hand, turned his head to the side casually.

He did not like to see such gory scenes. However, he was slightly speechless after hearing Lin Ji. She will not let him off until the day of her death? How could she not let him off if she had died?

What an irony.

Fang Zhengzhi was also a little desperate.

Did every single person who was about to die like to say the exact same sentence? How boring, why couldn’t they change to a more refreshing line like ‘I would continue to hate you even after I die’?

It seemed like…

It was a little self-contradictory too.

Fang Zhengzhi shook his head. He was not too concerned over such minute details. After all, everyone liked to say it and he could not possibly seal Lin Ji’s mouth up.

Crack! At this moment, a crisp loud sound was heard. Following the sound, a crystal clear Monster Pearl rolled out from Lin Ji’s stomach.

Instantly, a powerful aura shrouded the entire cave and radiated outwards like water ripples.

“This is the Monster Pearl?!”

“The Monster Pearl of a Godly State… What a powerful aura!”

The three Settlement Chiefs of the Southern Region looked at the Monster Pearl with their eyes wideNed. After all, it was their first time seeing a Monster Pearl. Furthermore, it was a Monster Pearl of a Godly State expert.

“No, don’t destroy my Monster Pearl, I don’t want to die yet… I… I will tell you where the Source of God is. Meng Tian, I… I will tell you!” Lin Ji became extremely dispirited the instant her Monster Pearl rolled out of her body. She collapsed on the ground as though she had completely depleted her energy.

“Say, where is the Source of God!” Shan Yu, who was about to stab the Monster Pearl with her dagger, stopped at this instant. She knew how important the information was for Fang Zhengzhi.

“Alright, I will say… I will say… However, you must promise me that you will not kill me. I don’t want to die, I really… don’t want to die…” Lin Ji nodded and had her two hands on the ground. She was drenched in sweat and pleaded.

“No! Lin Ji, you can’t reveal the location!” Demon Lord finally spoke and he threw his body towards Lin Ji.
