Representative of Wisdom vs. Scheming Bitch
Fang Yu looked at Zang Ting’s self-righteous expression, the corners of his mouth lifting into a disdainful smirk.
He activated the Flying Thunder God Technique, using the feather marked with v50 as a coordinate, and instantly appeared behind Zang Ting.
He moved so fast that the surrounding air was compressed by his high-speed motion into visible ripples.
Zang Ting sensed the approaching danger, and her expression changed drastically.
She immediately used the Wind-Wind Fruit’s power, turning into a wisp of breeze in an attempt to evade Fang Yu’s attack.
However, Fang Yu had anticipated it.
His eyes remained locked onto Zang Ting’s presence. The feather in his hand glimmered with Armament Haki, and that dense black sheen immediately gave Zang Ting a bad feeling. She could not help but seriously consider the possibility that one person could be both a ninja and a pirate.
Zang Ting increased her power, transforming into a gale and soaring upward.
She tried to use the height to shake Fang Yu off.
"Trying to run? Not that easy." Fang Yu snorted coldly, swung his Ukaku, fired out a feather, and activated the Flying Thunder God Technique again.
His figure flickered continuously through the wind. Seeing that smiling face following her, Zang Ting felt as though her heart were about to leap out of her throat!
To her horror, she discovered that no matter how she changed her form or used the wind to flee, Fang Yu could always follow right behind her like a shadow.
"How is this possible? How can he be so fast? How does he know where I’m going? Can he see through the wind?" Zang Ting muttered, her voice full of confusion.
"Damn it! I can only use this!"
Fang Yu gave Zang Ting no chance to catch her breath. Just as she was about to crush something, he suddenly raised his wrist!
A flash of intense light blinded Zang Ting!
"This! This is my bracelet! Damn it!"
Before Zang Ting could finish roaring, Fang Yu’s flying feather howled through the air and viciously stabbed toward her!
Zang Ting desperately twisted her body, trying to evade the fatal blow.
However, under the dual prediction of Observation Haki and the Sharingan, the feather pierced through her wind body, and blood instantly stained the air red!
"Ah!" Zang Ting screamed as she fell out of the wind and crashed heavily behind Fu Ming.
Her face was as pale as paper, and her eyes were filled with terror and disbelief.
"You… you beast! You… you specifically spent a huge amount with the Main God to exchange for Armament Haki just to kill me?! You really are a beast! There’s something seriously wrong with you! You’re sick! You already killed me once! Why are you still targeting me?! Why? Why?!"
Fang Yu’s Armament Haki made Zang Ting cry outright. She simply could not understand why anyone in the Main God Space would specifically spend points on Armament Haki. Was it purely to deal with Logia Type Devil Fruits? If that was not madness, what was?!
"You’re definitely a stalker fan! This is too cruel! Aaaaaah!"
"This… how is this possible…" Cloned Zhang Jie stared at Fang Yu floating in the air and said in a trembling voice, "He reached this level after only two Horror Films? I only exchanged for A-Rank telekinesis."
Fu Ming watched the scene before him and could not help clicking his tongue in amazement.
He looked up at Fang Yu, surprise flashing through his eyes. "I never expected that after such a short time apart, you would have mastered such powerful strength. You can even fly now. That truly wasn’t easy."
Fang Yu hovered in the air, looking down at Fu Ming and Zang Ting. His voice was calm and icy, like a whisper from hell. "Fu Ming, you spared my life back then. Today, I’ll spare yours too. But remember this: from today onward, your Inner Demon will take on my face. You once looked at me as though I were an ant. Today, I’ll shatter your dream of ants building skyscrapers the way a brat toys with ants!"
"I’ll let you know that cultivating immortality can never compare to cheating! No matter how hard you cultivate for another hundred years, you still won’t be my match!"
Fu Ming’s expression changed slightly, and the small golden sword floating before him suddenly trembled!
Just as Fu Ming was about to prepare for a battle with Fang Yu, Cloned Chu Xuan suddenly spoke. "Withdraw first. Let Robert fight him."
"Why?" Dio Brook pressed.
"It’s simple. Fu Ming’s Dao Heart must have suffered severe damage in the previous few films. If he fights the current Fang Yu, he probably won’t gain much of an advantage. By then, all of us will be sheep waiting to be slaughtered by the white man group."
Chu Xuan stared seriously at Dio Brook’s face. "Even you are no exception. Don’t think white people feel that much closeness toward other white people. From the second you came into contact with yellow people, you were already added to Robert’s kill list."
"Of course, you can argue that I was only copied here recently, that I never spent time with Robert, and that I don’t understand his personality."
Dio Brook immediately lost his temper.
The rest of the Demon Squad looked at one another, while Fu Ming’s face in particular was filled with reluctance.
Ever since his great battle with Meng Yao, it was as if he had been cursed with bad luck. For three consecutive Horror Films, he had struggled hard and gained nothing.
After finally getting an immortal-cultivation film that could increase combat power, "Maoshan Academy," the Main God seemed to have gone insane and turned the boss Golden Corpse into a Golden Flying Zombie. All the NPCs died in the final battle, and only a few seconds before turning into corpses, he, the nearly dead Dio Brook, and Zang Ting returned to the Main God Space.
After several near-death experiences, Fu Ming had long since lost the pride he once possessed as a Golden Core Sword Cultivator.
Now, he was somewhat afraid of death.
This was more or less related to his preparations to advance to the Fourth Order Genetic Lock and overcome his Inner Demon.
To some extent, Meng Yao was also Fu Ming’s Inner Demon. The Parasite Beast Alien Queen incident back then had been the beginning of the collapse of Fu Ming’s supremely confident Dao Heart.
Seeing Fu Ming’s hesitant expression, Main God Fang Yu could not resist mocking him. "Zhang Jie’s copy, Fu Ming isn’t the Fu Ming he used to be. Your uncle is still your uncle!"
Cloned Zhang Jie gritted his teeth in fury, but remembering what Cloned Chu Xuan had said, he suppressed his anger. "We withdraw!"
Seeing the Demon Squad preparing to leave, Fang Yu was just about to pursue them when Zhan Lan’s Mind Chain linked to his mind, and Chu Xuan’s voice appeared in his head. "I negotiated with Red Queen and confirmed that the nuclear bomb stockpile will be cleared tomorrow. Before then, help me preserve this round’s data intact. When the nuclear explosion comes, do not act rashly."
"Do we really have to make this so troublesome? I can kill however many I can kill now, right?"
Chu Xuan’s voice came again. "Thanks to you, we may have to face an immortal-cultivation film in the next Horror Film. Before that, you’d better give me enough time to thoroughly research Ghouls, the T-Virus, and the G-Virus. If you defy the Main God’s will too much, you may be purged as an ‘anomaly.’"
That emotionless voice echoed in Fang Yu’s mind. "What you need to consider now is not points or satisfaction, but how to survive the next film. You’d better not kill anyone. You can no longer afford to."
Fang Yu watched Fu Ming and the others disappear from sight, then spoke to the empty air. "I’m probably the first Reincarnator to have points right in front of me and refuse to earn them."
Chu Xuan’s voice rang out again. "Your enhancements were not actually wrong. Although they were stupid, they at least gave your counterparts in other worlds a good starting ability. The miserable ones aren’t you, but us."
Since Chu Xuan had put it that way, Fang Yu simply laid everything out. "Then tell me your plan. How am I supposed to survive now? Keep myself in the Main God Space and continue providing enhancements for my counterparts in other worlds?"
Chu Xuan fell silent for a moment before speaking. "I plan to research a Ghoul-cleansing vaccine. I also reserved some points. If my estimate is correct, after obtaining the achievement of complete human extinction, the Main God should give us a B-Rank Side Quest."
"I’ll purchase a Resurrection Cross for you and arrange a death that will completely remake you."
"By then, you can ‘Reforge Lotus Body,’ obtain a human body, and avoid the Main God’s malice."
After hearing this, Fang Yu spat into the empty air. "Pah! Stop plotting against me. Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking? If I listen to you, it’ll be just like Madara Uchiha: I leave all the benefits to you and painfully wait for you to revive, then you become Obito and only want to create a world with Rin in it. Maybe Zheng Zha dressed as Kabuto Yakushi will be the one reviving me by then."
Chu Xuan showed no emotional reaction even after his plan was exposed. "If Zheng Zha revives you, that would still be a consequence I planted."
"Fine, fine, you’re smarter. Anyway, once this Horror Film ends, the captain selection window should pop up. After I get the captain reward and reach Genetic Lock Stage 3, my mission will basically be complete. Stop plotting against me. If I die, the Central Continent Team might be able to lower the difficulty, but won’t you have far fewer opportunities to manipulate things too?"
As Fang Yu spoke, he used Flying Thunder God to return to the soft bed at Umbrella Corporation. "Think about it. If the next Horror Film is Shu Mountain, wouldn’t you want to plot against Bai Mei or Xuantian Sect?"
Chu Xuan rarely took the time to carefully consider the possibility Fang Yu had raised.
If it was Fang Yu, who had grown so rapidly, then there really was a chance to pull off an earth-shattering battle of wits!
Using little to win big?
Chu Xuan nodded in satisfaction. "Although I don’t want to admit it, you convinced me."
Fang Yu viciously clenched his teeth. "So you really were plotting against me just now! I’m going to kill you right now! When I get back to the Main God Space, I’ll wipe out your entire base too!"
Chu Xuan shrugged. "You won’t do that."
Fang Yu snorted coldly. "I’ll do it sooner or later." As he spoke, his eyes suddenly shifted. "But if the India Continent Team and Demon Team deliberately come to deliver points, I can’t exactly refuse a fight and watch them kill you all, can I?"
Chu Xuan nodded. "When that happens, I’ll let you act."
"You don’t need to tell me. I have my own judgment."
After cutting off the connection, Fang Yu, who had just been wearing the expression of a gorilla, put on a shrewd look.
He grabbed a pillow, leaned against the headboard, propped his hands behind his neck, and looked into the empty air. He seemed to be talking to himself, yet also seemed to be speaking for a particular person to hear.
"When the captain window pops up, I’ll see whether the next film is on the immortal-cultivation side. If it is, I’m immediately jumping ship to the Heavenly God Team."
"The Main God wants the lives of Hongjun and Pangu from the Central Continent Team. What does that have to do with me, a newly recruited Heavenly God Team member?"
The scorching sun hung high over the training grounds of Chentang Pass.
"Hey, newbie! Play shuttlecock with Young Master for a while!" Nezha said carelessly, excitement gleaming in his eyes. Without waiting for Fang Yu’s answer, he kicked the shuttlecock toward him!
Fang Yu instinctively reached out to catch it, but the shuttlecock was too fast. Like a cannonball, it slammed into his stomach and sent him flying with tremendous force!
When he crashed into a wall, the wall instantly collapsed!
However, that was not the end. Carried by the momentum, his body smashed through two more walls before finally coming to a stop.
Dust immediately rose over the training grounds, while the veteran soldiers hid in the shadows, too frightened to even breathe loudly.
Only after Nezha had played enough and left humming a tune did they cautiously gather around.
"Heavens! This newbie is way too miserable! He hasn’t even seen the battlefield, and he’s already gone west!"
"He’s completely dead! That was too vicious!"
As the veteran soldiers discussed it, they cleared away the ruins and searched for Fang Yu’s body.
But when they saw that Fang Yu was still breathing, everyone’s jaws dropped to the ground in an almost cartoonish fashion!
"Alive! He’s alive?!"
Though Fang Yu was covered in dust, scraped in many places, and had several broken bones, he was somehow still alive. His breathing was steady; he had merely fainted from the pain!
"Who exactly is this kid? He survived after being kicked by the young master’s shuttlecock, with only a few broken bones. That’s unbelievable!" one veteran soldier said in astonishment.
"Yeah! If it were us, we’d have died eight times over! Even the general and his wife couldn’t take a shuttlecock like that!" another veteran agreed.
"Born with divine strength!" The instructor rubbed his shiny bald head. "Quick! Get a doctor! Let him recover properly! This kid will definitely become a pillar of Chentang Pass in the future!"
After an unknown amount of time, New Recruit Fang Yu suddenly opened his eyes!
He looked around in confusion, clutching his throbbing forehead as he processed the fresh memories he had gained after falling unconscious.
"If that kick didn’t turn me stupid, then I should have arrived in the Mythological World of Birth of the Demon Child."
"Cough, cough, cough!"
"This is bad! There can’t be much time left until Boundless Immortal Elder massacres Chentang Pass, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, familiar voices rang out.
Uchiha Yu: "Same old recipe, new packaging, still the same flavor!"
Pirate World Fang Yu: "Brother, it’s your turn to have a hard time this time."
New Recruit Fang Yu swallowed. "With all the accumulation you guys have, I’d rather fight a Superhero. Going straight into battle with mythological figures is basically asking for my life!"
Stephen Fang: "Good news: you became a heavenly soldier."
Bruce Yu: "Bad news: Monkey King is flying over with his staff!"
After being pummeled by several versions of himself, New Recruit Fang Yu suddenly erupted with fierce fighting spirit!
"You all survived when you had nothing. I refuse to believe that, with your accumulated power, I can’t survive!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the clanking sound of armor moving came from outside. Through the crack in the door, New Recruit Fang Yu saw the upright figure of Chentang Pass’s commander-in-chief—Li Jing!
Knock, knock, knock.
The door was knocked upon. New Recruit Fang Yu got out of bed and opened it.
"Oh? You? Your injuries actually…?"
When Li Jing saw Fang Yu, who could get out of bed on his own after only simple bandaging, he was immensely delighted! He stepped forward, grabbed Fang Yu’s shoulders with both hands, and lifted him up. "You’re really fine?"
"Hiss!" Even New Recruit Fang Yu, whose abilities had been synchronized, could barely endure Li Jing’s iron-pincer grip. "General, that hurts like hell."
"Pain is good! Pain is good!" Li Jing happily released Fang Yu, his eyes scanning Fang Yu from head to toe like a talent scout. "If it hurts, that means you’re not a ghost!"
Fang Yu rolled his eyes.
Li Jing sure likes jokes.
I just wonder what he’ll think in the future, when Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li’s pagoda becomes Nezha’s father, while Li Jing, who bears the pagoda, becomes a human-shaped meat rack.
Wait!
No!
This is the world of the animated Nezha! Then what exactly is the plot? Am I going to get captured and refined into a pill or something?!
Stephen Fang: "Don’t be afraid! If you get caught and thrown into the Heavenly Origin Cauldron, steal Yin Shiniang’s inner core and eat it. It’ll boost your cultivation quite a bit."
