âA star?!â
Everyone froze for a moment.
There was actually a star falling from the sky rapidly. Even though it was daytime, they could still sense its dazzling radiance.
âHeâs back!â
âHe really came back?!â
âHe successfully stopped the Cosmic Disaster by himself and came back?!â
They were shocked, excited, and a little skeptical.
However, it was true that Fang Zhengzhi came back. He descended from the sky like a star and eventually landed softly in front of Chi Guyan, Yun Qingwu, and the rest.
âAre all of you waiting for me to come back before you start eating?â Fang Zhengzhi smiled brightly and dusted his clothes.
ââŠâ
There was a moment of silence.
Then, there was a thundering cheer.
Fang Zhengzhi glanced around him while everyone was cheering, and he eventually looked towards Xuanyuan Five, who was sitting on the ground, and said condescendingly, âEh? Who is that ugly bastard? Why havenât I seen him before?â
âDamn brat, Iâm going to kill you!â
ââŠâ
âŠ
One month later.
There were lanterns hanging all around Northern Mountain Village, and every corner of the village was filled with red silk cloth. Fang familyâs tiny courtyard had already been renovated into a massive mansion.
Its red gates were embedded with gold and jade, and the two lions carved out of black jade standing by the gates were extremely lifelike.
This was a mansion that could rival even the royal palace.
Fang Zhengzhi didnât mind the bourgeois appearance because he was an uncultured man to begin with. Therefore, he wanted his mansion to be as extravagant and luxurious as possible. He was extremely close to carving all of the toilet bowls out of jade.
Qin Xuelian and Fang Houde were actually a little worried.
However, when they saw the new emperor, Lin Yun, smiling so brightly, the butterflies in their stomachs disappeared.
âBrat, is it really ok to be so high-profile?â Xuanyuan Five glanced at the mansion gates that were even taller than castle walls and felt a little speechless.
âYou want me to keep a low-profile? Thatâs impossible. By the way, didnât Lin Yun say that he would send me 3000 night pearls? Why arenât they here yet? Is he going back on his words?â Fang Zhengzhi pursed his lips. He turned around and was about to charge towards Lin Yunâs place to question him about it.
âLow⊠Class!â Xuanyuan Five shook his head. Then, he seemed to have suddenly remembered something and uttered, âHey, brat, can you give me 300 of those night pearls?â
âScram!â
ââŠâ
Fang Zhengzhi gave Xuanyuan Five the finger without a second thought.
However, when he was heading towards Lin Yunâs room, he suddenly saw two people standing shoulder to shoulder at the doorway.
It was a man and a woman.
Both of them looked fairly calm.
However, they were holding hands and standing at an obvious spot by the door as if they were waiting for someone.
They were Yan Xiu and Qing Yi.
ââŠâ Fang Zhengzhiâs expression changed a little. He looked at them and coughed softly when he ultimately failed to keep quiet.
The two of them turned back at the same moment.
Qing Yiâs expression obviously changed and she intuitively withdrew her hand.
However, instead of letting go of her hand, Yan Xiu pulled Qing Yi into his arms and walked towards Fang Zhengzhi.
âIâve to return to Western Liang in two days.â Said Yan Xiu.
âSo urgent?â
âYup, Iâve already notified them, and they are preparing for it.â
âPreparing for what?â
âI gave you 10,000 Western Liang war horses as a wedding gift. Since you donât have any use for them, why donât them give them back to me in a few days?â Yan Xiu smiled and said.
âSo, I have to return 10,000 Western Liang war horses after they ate at my place for half a month? Moreover, Iâve to gift you a Sword Attendant whoâs at Sage State? Oh, thatâs right, I have to call her sister-in-law now. Tell me honestly, when did the two of you start going out?â Fang Zhengzhi was stunned.
âIâm older than you, so you have to call Qing Yi âbig sisterâ.â Yan Xiu corrected him.
âNo matter what, I feel like I drew the short straw.â
Rumble!
ââŠâ
At this moment, they heard the thundering sound of galloping hooves coming from beyond the village.
Then, five long lines of people in bright red clothing rushed into the village. They were extremely rowdy, and a festive mood permeated the air.
âThe brides and their parties are finally here!â
âHurry up and check out the brides!â
âHahaha, Zhengzhi is such a lucky man.â
The villagers rushed out immediately, and all of them were smiling brightly.
âLucky? The five of them arenât easy ones to pleaseâŠâ Fang Zhengzhi watched the parties that entered the village one by one, and a bittered look gradually appeared on his face.
The first one that came in was naturally the Northern Lands Divine Constabulary that was escorted by the Iron Feather Guards. Northern Landsâ Marquis Chi was standing at the front of the party, and his smile looked like a blooming peony.
His aura was telling people that he was at the top of the world.
There were four long and parallel lines following close behind.
The party of Great Xia Dynastyâs emperor, Lin Mubai.
The party of Shadow Sect.
The party of Southern Region.
Then, there was the most ridiculous-looking party.
Nine gigantic beasts of different colors, each exuding a dazzling radiance, were flapping their wings and pulling a massive golden carriage in the sky.
There were many enormous figures following behind the golden carriage.
Monster Emperor Baizhi, wearing a snow-white fur dress that highlighted her curves, was standing on the back of a Godly Beast. She glanced around and eventually looked towards Fang Zhengzhi.
âFang Zhengzhi, I only have one request. The first door you enter tonight must be the door of Qingwuâs room!â Monster Emperor Baizhi said that with a cold expression.
âWhy does he have to pick your daughter? Do you really think Ling Yun Tower is for show?â Qian Yu replied unhappily before Fang Zhengzhi managed to say a word.
She rushed out from the brideâs party straightaway.
Her silver dress swayed in the wind, and she looked extremely majestic.
âCan you beat me?â Monster Emperor Baizhi replied in a condescending tone.
âI can.â A voice came out of the carriage at the front. Although it wasnât loud, it suppressed all the other voices in the area.
It was Chi Guyan.
She didnât walk out of her carriage.
However, she shut everyoneâs mouth with a single sentence.
Northern Landsâs Marquis Chi intuitively extended his neck out and glanced around, thinking, âYou guys think youâre good? Great Xia Dynastyâs princess, Young Lord of the Demon Race, Leader of Shadow Sect, and Southern Regionâs king. So what? I only have one daughter, yet all of you have to stay behind me!â
Of course, he didnât dare to say it out loud.
There was nothing but silence.
It was a little awkward.
Fang Zhengzhiâs expression turned even more bitter. It was extremely troublesome to marry five women at once.
Marrying Chi Guyan was a must. Ping Yang wanted to marry him no matter what, so he didnât have a choice. Wu Yuer, on the other hand, kept bothering him. She was going to cry if he didnât marry her, so he had to.
As for Yun Qingwu and King of the Southern Region, Shan Yu, the circumstances were kind of bizarre.
Marrying Yun Qingwu wasnât an unreasonable choice, after all, it was for the sake of world peace. He had to care about Monster Raceâs and Demon Raceâs standing in the world, so he didnât mind.
Shan Yu was a different story.
While they were fighting at Changyang Mountain, Shan Yu actually stayed in Northern Mountain Village and treated Qin Xuelian so well that she got used to calling her âdaughter-in-lawâ.
When he returned to Northern Mountain VillageâŠ
The matter was already out of his control.
âFive of themâŠâ
âOne too many for Mahjong, and two too many for Fight the Landlord. How am I going to play games in the future?â
âIs there a game for five people?â
Fang Zhengzhi actually missed his previous world sometimes as it had everything. Even though this place was luxurious and lavish, it wasnât enough to fill the void in his heart.
âŠ
It was nighttime, and lights filled the village.
The grand wedding finally began.
Qin Xuelian and Fang Houde were sitting on the place of honor, their faces were bright red because they couldnât stop smiling while looking at their five daughters-in-law, who were kneeling on the ground.
âCome on, Yanâer, Yangâer, Yuâer, Qingwu, and Yuâer, get up.â
âYup, you can get up.â Fang Houde was also smiling.
âThank you, father! Thank you, mother!â The five of them stood up simultaneously. Then, they turned towards Fang Zhengzhi and said, âGreetings, hubby!â
âGreetings, my bridesâŠâ Fang Zhengzhi bowed.
The music started.
The ceremony was completed.
This wedding lasted a long time. There were guests from all around the world, filling the entire Fang familyâs residence with laughter and joy.
Finally, night fell.
It was time for a difficult decision.
Fang Zhengzhi came to a road with five different paths. He was conflicted, lost, and full of hesitation. At this moment, he felt like this was more painful than fighting Chi You back then.
Fighting Chi You was a temporary pain.
However, if he made the wrong choice tonight, god knows if he would suffer every night from now on.
âYanâer is great. Qingwu works too. Ping Yang⊠Sheâs fine. Yuâer definitely knows how to please me. Shan Yu⊠Her body is fantastic. So, who should I pick?â
Confliction!
More confliction!
Neverending confliction!
ââŠâ
After feeling conflicted for a full 15 minutesâŠ
He suddenly realized that⊠He actually never had a choice.
He realized that it was an illusion.
He thought that he had a choice, but as it turned out, he actually didnât.
âAlright, since I donât have a choice, I donât have to be conflicted about this.â Fang Zhengzhi followed the path at the center and soon arrived at a room.
There were red candles burning inside the room.
The candlesâ radiance even decorated the moonlight with a joyous mood.
âYanâer, IâŠâ Fang Zhengzhi opened the door softly and walked into the room. However, his eyes became wide open before he even finished his sentence.
That was because there were actually five people in Chi Guyanâs room.
They were sitting in a row.
Their heads were all covered with red veils.
âI knew it. Sister Yan, youâre great. You easily guessed that the shameless brat would be coming to your room.â Ping Yang uttered.
âYup, sister Yan is great!â Wu Yuer immediately nodded.
âSister Yan shall be our head!â Shan Yu also joined in.
Yun Qingwu didnât say anything, but she nodded and gave her silent approval.
âHe wonât dare to go anywhere else!â Chi Guyan raised the veil on her head at this moment and stared at Fang Zhengzhi with her dazzling eyes.
âHahaâŠâ Fang Zhengzhi smiled as brightly as the sun and said, âAre the five of you going to⊠Do it⊠Do it together?â
âWhy? Canât you handle us?â
âI can. I definitely can!â
âThen what are we waiting for?â
âHahaha⊠My wives, Iâm coming!â Fang Zhengzhi was overjoyed. He finally understood that all the confliction and choices werenât important.
As long as Chi Guyan was here, she would arrange everything for him accordingly.
âKnock knock knock!â Just as he was about to pounce onto them, someone suddenly knocked on the door urgently. The impact almost broke the door.
âWhoâs there?!â Fang Zhengzhi was pissed off.
âItâs ok to disturb us playfully!â
âBut you canât tear the door down!â
âMy lord, thereâs a big problem! An intruder barged in and we couldnât stop him!â It was obviously a Divine Constabularyâs soldier that was in charge of maintaining safety at the wedding.
âCouldnât stop him? Thereâs someone that can forcefully barge into my mansion?â Fang Zhengzhi was actually a little astonished.
At this moment, there were close to a hundred Godly Beasts and Gods of the Demon Race in his mansion. Qian Yu, Monster Emperor Baizhi, and the others also hadnât made their leave yet.
Who could possibly intrude the mansion?!
âYes. That man is really powerful. He immobilized Divine Lord just by raising his hand. It happened to Lord Qian Yu and the Monster Emperor too⊠All of them wereâŠâ
âWhat the hell? Did another bastard come back to life again?â Although Fang Zhengzhi was pissed off, he wasnât going to look down on that man.
âEven Monster Emperor Baizhi couldnât stop himâŠâ
âWho could it possibly be?â
Boom! At this moment, he heard a bang outside his room.
Fang Zhengzhi didnât hesitate anymore.
âLadies, wait for me. Iâm leaving for a while, but Iâll be right back.â Fang Zhengzhi opened the door and exited the room right after he said that.
âA single second on the night of a wedding is worth a thousand dollars.â
âHow dare you disturb me tonightâŠâ
âIâm going to kill you!â
As soon as he walked out of the room, Fang Zhengzhi saw a man in a turquoise long robe bathing in the moonlight. He was slim and tall.
It was a young man.
He was about 20 years old, and his lips curled into a faint smile.
âI calculated the time and figured that you would be in the midst of enjoying your wedding night, so here I am. You wonât mind, would you?â The young man said that with a smile.
âInteresting.â Fang Zhengzhi smiled.
âBastard, you are clearly here for trouble, arenât you?â
âAre you a little pissed off?â The young man continued.
âYup.â Fang Zhengzhi clenched his fists.
âDo you want a fight?â He nodded as if he was oblivious to Fang Zhengzhiâs anger.
âSure, but I donât want to destroy the plants in my mansion. Can you fly to the sky?â This was the first time Fang Zhengzhi met such a cocky fellow.
âThe sky? Of course, thatâs where I live, â the young man nodded, and he mumbled to himself, âWhen did the moon appear? I toast to heaven and asked, wondering what date is it in the palace above the sky. Song Dynasty, Su Shi*. Oh, thatâs right, this poem made into a song before. Do you like Wang Fei**?â
ââŠâ Fang Zhengzhi froze.
âSong Dynasty, Su Shi!â
âWang Fei!â
âSuch familiar names!â
This was the second time he heard something like this. The first time was when Xuan Nv of the Nine Heavens talked to him, but he didnât get an answer back then.
âWho are you?â
âMy name is Lin Yi.â The young man didnât lie.
âWhere did youâŠâ
âYou can stop guessing. I came from the same place as you, and I can tell you that I am the one who created this world.â
âYou created it?â Fang Zhengzhi would never believe bullshit like this two months ago. However, at this moment, he was convinced.
âA person that came from the same place as me.â
âCreated this world!â
âThatâs why this world contains the Four Books and Five Classics, as well as all sorts of famous ancient sayingsâŠâ
âHowever, all of them were summed up into one.â
âThe âLaw of Daoâ!â
âDo you want to follow my lead, create a world, rise above the Six Rebirth Dao, and attain eternal life?â Lin Yi found a place and sat down. Then, he created a stone table, two cups, and a white-jade bottle that was full of delicious alcohol just by sticking his hand out.
âI can attain eternal life just by creating a world?â Fang Zhengzhiâs eyes lit up. Then, he sat down and grabbed one of the cups.
Lin Yi didnât stop him.
After Fang Zhengzhi finished his drink, Lin Yi refilled his cup.
âBut I donât want to be like you.â After finishing another cup, Fang Zhengzhi paused for a moment and shook his head slowly.
âOh? Donât you want eternal life? With your current power, it isnât very difficult to create a world. You understand the essence of the formation of a world, and you possess the ability to create all matters. Given tens of millions of years, youâd definitely be able to create a world that belongs to you.â Lin Yi was a little surprised.
âItâs too troublesome.â Fang Zhengzhi shook his head again.
âTroublesome?â
âYeah, donât you think that itâs troublesome? It takes time for a rock to turn into a mountain and a tree into a forest. Why would I waste my time on something so boring and troublesome? Moreover, I might end up just like you, creating a world that is incomplete and wasting all of my time in the process.â
âIt seems like you have a deep understanding of this. However, you canât live forever without your own world.â
âWell⊠You donât have to create one.â
âOh? What are you thinking of?â Lin Yi wasnât surprised to hear him this time. Instead, he was looking at Fang Zhengzhi with a smile and an interested expression.
âI could rob one.â Fang Zhengzhiâs answer was simple and straightforward.
âHahaha..â Lin Yi laughed unrestrainedly. Then, he grabbed the cup in front of him, emptied the drink in one breath, and asked, âWhich one?â
âIs there another possible option?â
âIt wonât be easy to rob that world.â
âHow difficult is it?â
âI will tell you that Iâve thought of the same idea before, but Tai Bai wouldnât agree to it no matter what. He said something along the lines of âWhy do we have to torment each other even though we share the same rootsâ. After that, I tried it once personally and it ended⊠Er, thatâs roughly what had happened.â Lin Yi smiled and didnât continue his story.
âWhoâs Tai Bai?â
âA senior.â Lin Yi explained.
âOh. What if the two of us work together?â Fang Zhengzhi didnât ask another question.
âHeheâŠâ Lin Yi rubbed his hands together, and his eyes lit up as he said, âWeâll have to be well-prepared in that case. When do you plan to do it? I can lead the way. Actually, we could do it now since I have already made the necessary preparations before I came here.â
âThe tenth of July.â
âWhy must it be on the tenth of July?â
âBecause that dayâs weather is good.â Fang Zhengzhi didnât explain further. He simply glanced at the moon in the sky and uttered, âEarth, huh? Hehe⊠Iâm coming!â
