Gate of God

As Fang Zhengzhi said, Zheng was extremely confident with his speed. Moreover, there were almost a hundred Godly Beasts behind his back.

Zheng believed that if Fang Zhengzhi attacked him now, the Godly Beasts behind him would definitely not leave him in the lurch. They would swarm up and kill Fang Zhengzhi and the rest.

With some assurance, Zheng calmed down, bent his rear limbs and leaped in front of Fang Zhengzhi at the speed of lightning.

It was a display of his skills.

Actually, it was also a sign of warning to tell Fang Zhengzhi that his speed was very fast as well and if Fang Zhengzhi dares to attack, he would have to bear the consequences himself.

“Alright, how do you want to strike the deal?” Zheng stopped five feet away from Fang Zhengzhi and asked cautiously.

“Very simple, leave the territory that I have marked out and I will not kill any of you.” Fang Zhengzhi did not have the intent to attend and said in a gentleman manner.

However, what he said caused Zheng to be stunned.

Leave the territory?

How was that a negotiation?

If the Godly Beasts were willing to leave the territory, what negotiation do they still have to make? They could just leave!

“Human, are you kidding me?” Zheng was unhappy and looked at Fang Zhengzhi with a cold look, looking like he was trying very hard to hold in his anger.

“No, my term is to take half of the territory. You can bring up other terms if you have. This is a negotiation, it involves both parties.” Fang Zhengzhi smiled.

“Hmph, you want half of the territory, impossible! There’s nothing to discuss, let’s just do it with our capability!” Zheng stopped dragging on with Fang Zhengzhi as he realized that an intense fragrance had spread out from the other half of the territory.

He could predict that the fruit was about to appear very soon.

“Alright, since you said this… then we shall follow behind you…” Fang Zhengzhi shrugged and gave off a nonchalant look.

“You…” Zheng finally understood Fang Zhengzhi’s intent.

He wanted to follow behind Zheng. That was clearly a threat and what he targeted was extremely obvious.

Once Fang Zhengzhi and the rest did that…

How could he continue? There were a bunch of “bandits” around him, he doubted he could even get hold of a flower petal.

“So, can we start the negotiation?” Fang Zhengzhi’s smile was getting increasingly vibrant.

“What exactly do you want? Half of this territory is impossible and I can’t make the decision. Even if I am willing to leave, the other Godly Beasts will not!” Zheng was furious.

“Then let’s talk about something in which you can make the decision…”

“What?”

Swoosh!

An invisible shroud shrouded around Zheng, Fang Zhengzhi and the rest. Instantly, Zheng’s expression changed and was about to turn and escape.

“Rest assured, it’s only the shroud to block out the noise. I have already said that I am a gentleman.” Fang Zhengzhi stretched out one of his hand to signal that Zheng did not need to worry.

“Shroud to block out noise?” Zheng touched the shroud with his front claw and seeing how it penetrated the shroud, he finally calmed down.

“Now, let’s talk about the official terms, how can you be persuaded to give half of the territory to us?”

“Impossible!” Zheng rejected without hesitation.

“Don’t reject so quickly, think about it, if you agree to my term, we can help you obtain a fruit, how about that?”

“Trying to trick me? I won’t fall for it!”

“Believe it or not, it’s your business. To do it or not, it’s our business. Now that the fruit is about to appear, are you willing to give up on this opportunity?”

“This…” Zheng hesitated.

He knew that with his powers, he definitely did not stand an absolute advantage amongst the Godly Beasts as he was not as powerful as the three beasts and the twelve warlocks.

The only way he could get the fruit was by luck.

However, there would definitely be a smell before the fruit appeared. With that in mind, it would be almost impossible for him to get the fruit based on luck.

However, if Fang Zhengzhi and the rest helped him…

The outcome would be completely different.

Zheng had witnessed the capability of Fang Zhengzhi and the rest. They had killed Zhu Yan, Bai Ze and tamed Bi Fang, and definitely had the capability to fight with the three beasts and twelve warlocks.

Would something so good happen to him?

Zheng did not believe it.

He felt that there must be something fishy as he was aware of the idea that for two parties to collaborate, they had to have a common interest.

“Hmph, I won’t believe you, we don’t have any common interests, why would I believe you?” Zheng snorted coldly and chose to not believe Fang Zhengzhi.

“We do have common interests, but it is up to you… to work with me,” Fang Zhengzhi continued without feeling surprised.

“What common interest?”

“Of course it is to give you a fruit in exchange of half of the territory. Isn’t that common sense?”

“Haha…” Zheng laughed and looked at Fang Zhengzhi suspiciously. “Fang Zhengzhi, are you naive enough to believe that all the Godly Beasts will listen to me?”

“You mean they don’t?” Fang Zhengzhi was slightly surprised.

“Nonsense!” Zheng shouted.

“Oh, if that’s so, then we only have one way out.”

“What?”

“We will help you get the fruit and once your power increase, we can take control of them together, so the Godly Beasts have to listen to you!”

“Hmm?!” Zheng’s expression looked strange.

This deal was so good that it was better than getting free food falling from the sky.

Help him get the fruit first?

Zheng was overwhelmed with excitement. Although he did not really believe what Fang Zhengzhi said, he could not refuse his offer because of the good deal.

After all, he had an opportunity.

Once he missed the opportunity, he would not be able to get it in the future.

This was comparable to someone who was extremely poor. When he saw a gold mine in front of him, even if he felt that something was amiss, he would not be able to resist the temptation to go towards it.

Zheng was struggling internally.

“If you are still willing to accept this deal, then we will have no choice but to fight. Don’t need to bargain with me, I only want half of the territory, if you help me with this, I will help you get a fruit.” Fang Zhengzhi shook his head in disappointment when he saw Zheng keep silent.

“Fine!” Zheng shouted.

“Oh?” Fang Zhengzhi was surprised.

“If you are really able to help me get a fruit, I will help you get half of this territory. However, I can only say that I will try my best, no promises.” Zheng clenched his teeth. Then, he added to prevent Fang Zhengzhi from going against his promise, “You have to understand after you get half of this territory, you will get way more than only one fruit. You guys are still the beneficiary at the end of the day.”

“Hahaha, of course, so is it a deal?” Fang Zhengzhi laughed loudly.

“Deal!” Zheng said in affirmation.

“Since we have reached an agreement, should you show some sincerity?” Fang Zhengzhi stretched out his hand to Zheng.

“Sincerity? What sincerity?” Zheng stared at Fang Zhengzhi’s hand and wanted to take a step forward but soon stopped.

Being cautious was important.

Although Fang Zhengzhi made it sound very good, Zheng did not believe him.

Not only did Zheng not believe him, but he also had his own plan, which was to wait for Fang Zhengzhi and the rest to help him get his fruit before betraying them.

“The plan, the plan which will help us get half of the territory, don’t tell me you don’t have one?” Fang Zhengzhi withdrew his hand but did not look angry.

“You mentioned plan… yes, of course, I have it!” Zheng froze before he nodded vigorously.

“Then share a little?” said Fang Zhengzhi.

“Hmm…” Zheng did not have any plans but he needed to make up one because he wanted to make use of Fang Zhengzhi and the rest’s combined powers. “I know, I will go forward to strike a deal with them, I will say that you want half of this half of the territory. I think they can accept this deal.”

“You mean, instead of half, I get a quarter?”

“Don’t panic, you can take a quarter of this territory first then help us get our fruit. Once I have gotten the fruit, I can help you frighten them!”

“Are you lying?”

“No way!” Zheng slapped his chest and said.

“Then tell me something else.”

“What?”

“Who will be the first Godly Beast you will go against after you successfully get the fruit?”

“This…” Zheng did not understand the intention of this question but he still turned around and looked at the big group of Godly Beasts with a cold look. “Kun Peng, he is so powerful that he can fight against the three beasts. He is also good at flying and this makes it extremely difficult to catch him. Only he travels at about the same speed as me. If I sprang a sneak attack at him on the ground, and with your help, I am 90 percent confident that I can kill him!”

“Hmm, not bad, then, who will you go against after that?” Fang Zhengzhi nodded.

“After that will be Hei Kan. He is very powerful and stubborn. If he don’t die, it will be difficult for all of you to get half of the territory. Therefore, we have to kill him so the other Godly Beasts will not dare to resist,” Zheng said coldly.

“That’s great, I didn’t choose the wrong working partner. Let’s start our collaboration happily.” Fang Zhengzhi smiled in satisfaction and stretched out his right hand.

“Hahaha… Let’s cooperate happily.” Zheng smiled again.

This time, he did not stop in his steps but took a big step to Fang Zhengzhi and stretched out a right claw before shaking Fang Zhengzhi’s hand.

Zheng was very happy.

They said that humans were cunning, however, the guy in front of him was a fool, so what if he was powerful? Did Fang Zhengzhi think that he would help him after he got the fruit?

What a joke!

Just as Zheng was thinking about this, he realized a powerful force coming from the hand he was holding. It felt like a metal that restraint his front right claw.

This caused Zheng’s expression to change…

‘Oh no!’

‘This is a trap!’

Zheng did not understand why such a turn of event would happen. He also did not know why Fang Zhengzhi went against his words.

However, the powerful sense of crisis sent chills down his back.

Then, he saw the people around Fang Zhengzhi, such as Chi Guyan, Yan Xiu and Bi Fang move.

Four humans and one beasts surrounded Zheng from north, south, east and west.

“You… Fang Zhengzhi, what do you want?!” Zheng was shocked and furious. He completely did not know what was happening. He wanted to run but he could not because his front claw was stuck.

“Yan Xiu, do you want a pet to play with too?” Fang Zhengzhi smiled extremely brightly and stopped looking at Zheng.

“Pet?! You… Don’t you think you will anger the rest? Even if the sound is blocked, the Godly Beasts would not leave me in the lurch!” Zheng was afraid.

However, he had his trump card. There were almost a hundred of Godly Beasts behind him. He did not believe that Fang Zhengzhi would dare to make him a pet at this moment.

However, what surprised Zheng was…

Yan Xiu shook his head after taking a look at Zheng and said, “No, this one is too stupid.”

“Too stupid.”

“… Stupid.”

Yan Xiu’s voice echoed in the air and reached the other side of the mountain before bouncing back, resonating near Zheng’s ears.

Zheng’s expression changed.

He turned to his back. The sound shield had disappeared and all the Godly Beasts were staring coldly at him.

Why did the sound shield disappear…

When did that happen?!

“The sound shield disappeared when you said the plan!” Ping Yang touched Bi Fang’s head and smiled cunningly.

“What?! When… when…” Zheng turned pale.

He thought he was extremely cautious but just as he was extremely excited and thought he had everything planned out, he realized that he was walking into the trap.

“Kill me first? Spring a sneak attack? Zheng… not bad at all!” A sharp voice was heard from the crowd of Godly Beasts.

It was a gigantic Roc Bird with golden feathers. His wings, when extended, could block the entire sky.

Kun Peng!

The most powerful of the Godly Beasts who was extremely fast. He was almost as fast as the four ancient beasts and his skills were comparable to Golden Dragon Xuanyuan Five.

After Kun Peng’s sentence, another Godly Beast stood out.

It was a gigantic beast with silver fur, blue prints and a built of a ferocious tiger. He stared at Zheng silently with his two blue eyes.

“I, Hei Kan, trusted you so much and treated you like a brother, but you wanted to kill me after Kun Peng?” Hei Kan raised his head and looked extremely ferocious.
