Plundering the Heavens

Chapter 321: The Death of Fang Xiaojiu

Boom !

As Fang Xing held up the jade-boned umbrella and instilled it with Qi, a large number of spells began to appear. Defensive formations formed in layers one after another to thoroughly protect the person behind the paper umbrella, but Prince Chu Huangs lance instantly activated and pierced through the surface of that umbrella, tearing steadily through the layers of the formations. A battle lance soaked in the blood and flesh of royalty was simply too powerful, and even Fang Xing whod prepared for it was pushed back by its great force.

In mere moments, no fewer than nine formations had been pierced by this lance, and yet it still didnt stop and continued on through the paper umbrella completely. Fang Xings gaze chilled and his palm closed over the point of the lance as it neared his heart, but by this point the lances power had already been used up.

The Tenra Umbrella. Prince Chu Huangs pupils dilated and he showed a strong hatred before suddenly turning to flee. He hadnt noticed until now that the umbrella in Fang Xings hands was the Ancient tool hed given to his little sister, Chu Ci. Hed pretended to be crazy and launched a surprise attack, yet that umbrella managed to save the brats life. The power of the battle lance was nearly completely gone after that attack, and with that little demon grasping it in such a manner, there was no way for Prince Chu Huang to continue fighting. He instead gathered up his remaining Qi and tried to seize his chance to escape by tearing away the black smog with a golden light and flying out.

Bastard, you think you can escape? Fang Xing growled and started chasing closely behind. The golden crow beneath him was extremely fastmany times faster than hed been in the Qing-Yun Sectand was like a golden cloud as he caused the distance to quickly shrink.

Prince Chu Huang hurriedly fled from the black smog, but before he could breathe in relief, he saw the extremely vicious Fang Xing heading towards him. Youve already caused so much trouble for yourself! How dare you want to kill me; do you want to offend our Chu royal clan as well? he loudly screamed in terror. There was already the hint of a plea to be spared in his voice, but he had always been a proud person and couldnt truly say it directly.

Ive already made myself so many enemies, am I really scared of adding your Chu clan to my list? Fang Xing shouted. I already considered letting you go! You were the one who sought your own death, so how can you fault me for this? As he shouted, the golden crow flew even faster.

I cannot die. How can Ithe princedie here? Prince Chu Huang shouted in anguish, only to have a sudden thought and head towards the ground instead. Fang Xings murderous intent was clear by now, and there was only one person whod be able to save his life.

Chu Ci, help me.. Prince Chu Huang was like a golden ray of light as he drew closer to a group of white-robed Spirit Stage disciples below. The disciples wore clothing of the Snowy Mountain, and inside the black horse carriage was a purple-dressed little girlhis little sister, Chu Ci.

Chu Ci had been speaking with Ying Qiaoqiao, but she raised her face immediately when she heard those cries for help and was extremely surprised to see how defeated her brother looked. Royal Big Brother.

Prince Chu Huang was overjoyed to see Chu Ci and continued rushing forwardin his mind, the only thing that would be able to save his life right now was this burdensome sister of his. Chu Ci, hurry, help me. Hed seen with his own eyes how Chu Ci had been escorted to the innermost depths of the Mysterious Domain by this little demon, and not only was she unharmed, the wounds shed had at the small stone bridge were almost completely cured as well, meaning the little demon had taken good care of her. Furthermore, the little demon had prevented her from being slapped at the Chaotic Stone Valleys entrance, which meant she occupied at least some part of that little demons heart. Hopefully this little demon whod vowed to kill him would spare his life in the end, even if only for the sake of his little sister!

Just as he was about to reach Chu Ci, however, he felt a sense of extreme danger as a golden light and cloud bore down upon him.

Dont dont kill me! Chu Huang could only shout in terror. He desperately tried to turn amidst his yell, but the golden cloud was just too fast and the person on top of it was too vicious. Before Chu Huang was able to turn around, a chill pressed against his back and splurt a golden battle lance pierced straight through his chest, holding him in place a mere ten feet away from Chu Ci.

Prince Chu Huangs gaze began to fade as he turned. His expression was as though crying, yet there was a smile on his face as blood began to fill his nostrils and mouth. How how can you be so ruthless?

Im not used to being merciful! Fang Xing replied with a stern expression. He shook the battle lance and the great power exploded, pulverizing Prince Chu Huang into a bloody mist. As the mist began to scatter, he noticed the dumbstruck look of Chu Ci below as well as the hateful look of Ying Qiaoqiao, causing a bizarre feeling to form in his heart as though it had been roughly stabbed a few times.

Fang Xings mind quickly turned and he decided he should probably do something. After a brief moment of silence, he showed an extremely exaggerated and conceited smile and proclaimed, Haha, you bunch of trash from the Snowy Mountain dare try to fight me? First it was that useless trashed named Fang Xiaojiu, then it was this golden turtle egg of a bastard. How dare you try to provoke me? All of you will need to die.

What the hell are you playing at, Fang Xing? Ye Guyin suddenly shouted from the side. Shed been wounded by Fang Xing and hadnt entered the black smog again, but she was fully aware Fang Xing was also Fang Xiaojiu. Shed been one of the people next to Prince Chu Huang whod encircled Fang Xing, and when Prince Chu Huang asked his questions, shed heard it as well she understood completely Fang Xiaojiu and Fang Xing were one and the same. Hurry and give me back my

Stupid bi*ch, you want to be the third one? Fang Xings gaze was like a bolt of lightning as he looked towards her. His hand clawed at the air and he grabbed ahold of her with an invisible force that quickly brought her into the sky.

Ye Guyin struggled but unexpectedly wasnt able to resist it, and even Hou Guimen beside her didnt have enough time to react. Within mere moments, Fang Xing had brought Ye Guyin close while Hou Guimen chased after them, but once Fang Xing brought her inside the black smog, Hou Guimen ended up ensnared in a gathering of beast spirits and couldnt continue.

Bastard, go for it if you want to kill me! Despite being caught, Ye Guyin was as arrogant as ever; rather than begging for mercy, she actually began to curse instead.

I wont kill you, and I will return your Phoenix-Fear to you, but I will need your help to prove something, Fang Xing calmly said while tossing over her Phoenix-Fear Guqin.

Ye Guyin accepted the instrument in disbelief before sneering. Youre begging me for help?

Fang Xing tilted his head towards her and smiled. Im not begging you, Im helping you. Im sure you also know the enmity between me and the Huangfu clan has been set in stone, and this would assuredly have implications for the Snowy Mountain. If you are smart, you wont let others know who Fang Xiaojiu is. Remember this: Fang Xiaojiu is Fang Xiaojiu, Fang Xing is Fang Xing. Fang Xiaojiu was killed by Fang Xing. As he spoke, his gaze chilled further. Since you were so certain the little demon you saw before was real, dont go back on your words now!

Ye Guyin was surprised but let out a cold laugh. How could a secret like this possibly survive scrutiny?

Whether it can be kept a secret isnt important. This can be considered my compensation to the Snowy Mountain. Fang Xing laughed before continuing, As a reward, once Ive entered the Sword Mound, you can choose a Sword Embryo!

Ye Guyin bit her lip, unable to decide so readily.

We were going to do that anyway! a voice suddenly rose up as someone entered the black smog. The voice belonged to a woman holding a bloodied longsword and wearing snow-white clothingnone other than Xiao Xue. This extremely combative woman had just managed to fight to her satisfaction and was about to leave, only to stop when she saw Ye Guyin being caught. Hou Guimens battle prowess wasnt enough to get through the entanglement of beast spirits, but she on the other hand was able to get rid of them to come here.

The problems you have caused are simply too large, and not even Snowy Mountain can protect you anymore. Given this situation, Fang Xiaojiu is Fang Xiaojiu, the disciple of our Snowy Mountain; Fang Xing is Fang Xing, that infamous little demon of Jambu. This would be the best result! Xiao Xue came closer and softly said, Even if there are some gaps in the story, Im sure our shifus will all find some evidence to prove you two are different people!

That would be best. With that, Fang Xing turned without anything more to say. In the beginning, something like hiding his identity wasnt something he even considered, but the gazes of those two girls had caused him to have such ideas. He didnt know whether it was possible to keep the truth hiddenwhat Ye Guyin said was true, and it wouldnt be difficult for people to realize Fang Xing and Fang Xiaojiu were the same person if they investigated itbut he didnt care about that. What mattered wasnt whether someone might be able to find the connection, but if it was enough to keep those two girls from knowing.

It could be said Fang Xing had his own form of mercy, and this was the fullest extent of it.

Oi. After Fang Xing turned to leave, Xiao Xue smiled. Shidi Fang, you still owe me a battle!

Fang Xing paused in his footsteps and smiled back. It is Fang Xiaojiu that owes you, not me! Then, he dashed back into the depths of the black smog with a laugh and no longer looked back.

Once Fang Xing disappeared into the black smog once more, Fang Xiaojiu was truly dead.
