Chapter 930: Sacrifice for the Bigger Picture
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
What a pity that Lin Ji was too greedy.
If she had not intentionally told Shan Yu about the location of the Source of G.o.d, Fang Zhengzhi would have not noticed the loophole in her plan.
Fang Zhengzhi quickly regained his senses and retreated his hand and kept the Monster Pearl quickly.
“Young Master Fang, you can’t leave her in the lurch!” The eyes of the three Settlement Chiefs were bloodshot when they saw this.
“Nonsense! I have said that as long as I am here, I will definitely not allow Shan Yu to die. However, this Monster Pearl cannot save her.” Fang Zhengzhi carefully laid Shan Yu on the ground and walked towards Lin Ji’s body.
“Cannot save her? However, didn’t Young Master Fang say that the Monster Pearl is used to heal injuries?” The three Settlement Chiefs looked at each other in confusion.
However, they did not probe further because it was Fang Zhengzhi, and not the so-called “Meng Tian”, who was standing in front of them.
Although the felt that Fang Zhengzhi was extremely shameless, they knew that if he was Fang Zhengzhi, he would definitely save Shan Yu.
“The Monster Pearl can indeed heal injuries, but Shan Yu is unable to take this Monster Pearl and she will definitely die because of internal explosion.
“Oh I see… So what do we do now?” The three Settlement Chiefs understood as they were familiar with the relevant knowledge.
The body is the primary factor for cultivation.
Like a water tank, if the tank was too small, it could not hold too much water and would break apart if too much water was forced into it.
Fang Zhengzhi did not answer the three Settlement Chiefs. Instead, he was looking for something on Lin Ji’s body and quickly found a red object.
“What’s this?!”
“Could it be the…”
The three Settlement Chiefs widened their eyes when they saw what Fang Zhengzhi was holding.
“Hmm, the gallbladder of the snake.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded his head lightly. Although he did not study medicine, he knew how to neutralize snake toxins.
The three Settlement Chiefs understood what Fang Zhengzhi was doing.
After all, they had the experience from living under harsh conditions in the Southern Region.
Fang Zhengzhi held the snake gallbladder carefully in his hands and rushed to Shan Yu. However, instead of feeding her the gallbladder, he kissed her neck.
“Don’t do that, Young Master Fang, it is too dangerous!”
“Yes, if you need to do that, let us do it instead!”
“Young Master Fang!”
The three Settlement Chiefs instantly understood what Fang Zhengzhi wanted to do. They wanted to stop him but it was too late.
Spat! Fang Zhengzhi spat out the poison that he had sucked into his mouth. The thick purple fluid made sizzling sounds when spat on the ground.
“Leave the cave and guard outside. Don’t let anyone in.” Fang Zhengzhi said after spitting out the poison.
In reality, he was not trying to act like the hero. In fact, he had to do it because the toxin was too poisonous for the three Settlement Chiefs to handle.
“Young Master Fang!”
“Get out!”
“Alright, then we shall leave Your Highness to Young Master Fang!” The three Settlement Chiefs nodded and left quickly although they were unwilling to do so.
Fang Zhengzhi did not stop and continued to suck out the poison from Shan Yu’s neck before spitting them on the floor.
This method was the oldest and most dangerous method.
That was because the snake toxin could enter Fang Zhengzhi’s body if he was not careful, causing him to be intoxicated too. However, he had no time to worry about that.
After a long while, the color of the purple poisonous blood on the floor became fainter and turned into a bright red color while Fang Zhengzhi was drenched with perspiration.
Lin Ji, the G.o.dly State expert!
The intensity of the toxin she had injected was definitely extremely high.
The taste of the toxin could not be described by normal words. It made a burning sensation in his mouth and had a mixture of numbness, sourness, bitterness…
After he finished sucking out all the poisonous blood, Fang Zhengzhi finally held up the snake gallbladder and wanted to open Shan Yu’s purple lips with his other hand.
However, Shan Yu had lost her consciousness and her lips were extremely tight. It was impossible to open them.
How could he feed her the gallbladder if she could not open her mouth?
Fang Zhengzhi frowned. He took a look at the gallbladder in his hand and then at Shan Yu. Taking a deep breath, he bit open the gallbladder with his teeth.
Instantly, a hot fluid flowed into his mouth. He widened his eyes immediately and his entire body trembled.
Bitter…
It was too f*cking bitter!
If the snake toxin he had sucked earlier on was the most bitter thing he had ever tasted, the gallbladder juice was so bitter that he could no longer describe it with any words.
However, did he have a choice?
No!
Therefore, he bowed forward again. He fed Shan Yu the gallbladder juice with his own mouth.
“Mmm, mmm…” Shan Yu made uncomfortable sounds as the gallbladder juice flowed into her mouth and she began to resist.
However, Fang Zhengzhi definitely would not let her break free!
He pressed his body down on Shan Yu completely. It was warm but it felt more like riding on a wild horse’s back.
“Mmm!!!” A painful scream was heard and the “wild horse” began to run with both her arms and legs. She kicked and scratched and moved her sllm and long legs as though she wanted to knee something.
Fang Zhengzhi was not experienced in this but he knew that the private part of a man could not be hit. Therefore, he could only close his legs tight.
There was an old saying that went, “Live happily in pain!”
Fang Zhengzhi did not understand what this meant as after all, he was still a “innocent child”. However, he knew that if he allowed Shan Yu to break free, all his past efforts would have gone to waste.
“Looks like I have to be more violent!” Fang Zhengzhi did not like violence but he was forced to release the “wildness” in himself.
As the saying went, ‘adopt measures appropriate to the actual situation’, in emergency situations, he also began to use both his arms and legs and pressed himself on Shan Yu’s body.
After the storm…
You see the rainbow.
Fang Zhengzhi did not know how long it took for him to finish feeding Shan Yu the gallbladder juice with his body pressing on Shan Yu’s body, but he saw a beam of sunlight s.h.i.+ne into the cave when he was done.
“What the f*ck…” Fang Zhengzhi wanted to curse but he realized that he could not talk as his entire mouth was numb.
He was completely drenched and his sweat had formed a puddle on the ground.
Indeed…
No ordinary person could ride a wild horse!
Giving a sigh, Fang Zhengzhi bit the flesh of the gallbladder into pieces and fed them in small portions to Shan Yu.
Meanwhile, outside the cave, the three Settlement Chiefs looked at each other with their faces red and was speechless after the noises stopped.
“Yan Ya, do you think Young Master Fang had done… that to Your Highness?” One of the Settlement Chiefs said as he saw Yan Ya’s confused expression.
“Young Master Fang is not someone like that!” Yan Ya shook his head.
“However, I heard that Young Master Fang had some understanding about the Dao of Yin Yang. Could it be possible that… he had no choice but to do that to Your Highness in order to save her?”
“This…” Yan Ya’s expression changed slightly as he heard this.
“I think that it may not be a bad thing if Young Master Fang did that to Your Highness,” said another Settlement Chief.
“What do you mean?”
“All of us know the feelings that Your Highness had towards Young Master Fang. Furthermore, the previous King had also gave his blessings to the two of them, am I right?”
“Yes, you are right. The previous King indeed had that intention. However, Young Master Fang had sneaked onto Your Highness’ bed that night…”
“He was framed by the Crown Prince of Great Xia!”
“I see, so if Young Master Fang had done that with Your Highness in order to save her, it could actually be something good!”
“Of course it is!”
“…”
“What? I don’t think it is good at all!” While the three Settlement Chiefs were in the midst of discussion, a m.u.f.fled sound came from the cave.
Following that, Fang Zhengzhi who was drenched in sweat walked out of the cave. He had already taken off his s.h.i.+rt and held the dripping s.h.i.+rt in his hand.
The three Settlement Chiefs took a quick glance at each other and immediately understood what had happened.
“Young Master Fang, do you need us to do anything for you?”
“Get a bucket of water, I want to take a shower.” Fang Zhengzhi shook his head as he looked at the sweat on his body. He found a place to sit and said again, “Hold on, get two buckets of water instead. Shan Yu needs to shower too.”
“Alright, please wait as I go and get the water.” One of the Settlement Chiefs nodded and ran towards the lake nearby.
Meanwhile, Yan Ya exchanged glances with the other Settlement Chief with an odd expression. They wanted to say something but held back their words.
Fang Zhengzhi was slightly confused by their expressions but he was too tired to ask.
However, he quickly understood why they had such an odd expression.
That was because he suddenly realized that everyone present were guys when the two buckets of water were placed in front of him.
“Thank you, Young Master Fang!”
“We have to trouble Young Master Fang to help Your Highness take a shower. On behalf of the residents of the Southern Region, thank you!”
“Hmm, rest a.s.sured, Young Master Fang, we will guard outside and make sure n.o.body disturbs your shower!”
The three Settlement Chiefs began talking as Fang Zhengzhi stared at the two buckets of water.
“…” Fang Zhengzhi’s lips moved. He looked at the two buckets of water then at the three Settlement Chiefs standing in front of him and said, “You want me to help Shan Yu shower?”
“Yes!” The three Settlement Chiefs nodded.
“But I am still a child!”
“Child?” The three Settlement Chiefs immediately understood what he meant. However, they knew what Fang Zhengzhi implied after seeing his facial expression. “Young Master Fang, don’t tell me you expect us to do it instead? We definitely cannot do such a thing to Your Highness!”
“So, I am the only one who can do it?”
“Yes, of course.”
“Will Shan Yu kill me if she finds out after she wakes up?”
“Young Master Fang, please rest a.s.sured, Your Highness will definitely not hurt you. We can explain to her and after all, you are much more powerful than Your Highness.”
“That’s right.”
“In order to save Your Highness, Young Master Fang had sacrificed. The entire Southern Region population would be eternally grateful to you!” The three Settlement Chiefs fell to their knees after they spoke.
“Alright, it looks like I have to make this sacrifice.” Fang Zhengzhi was in a dilemma but he knew some things had to be done regardless.
Sacrifice…
It was inevitable for a man.
“Shameless!” After hearing what Fang Zhengzhi said and seeing his expression, the Demon Lord turned his head towards the side and scolded.
“How dare you scold Young Master Fang?”
“Beat him up!”
“How righteous is Young Master Fang to sacrifice himself for the bigger picture. How is he shameless?!”
The three Settlement Chiefs were evidently afraid that Fang Zhengzhi would misunderstand. Therefore, after the Demon Lord scoled him, they stood up immediately.
Boom! After a round of beating, there were more blood prints on the Demon Lord’s face and his face was heavily bruised.
How could the Demon Lord be punched on the face by three Settlement Chiefs of the Southern Region? Furthermore, he was unable to resist at all!
“I will never let you bunch of barbarians off!” The Demon Lord shouted with anger.
However, Fang Zhengzhi did not bother about what had happened and had already brought the two buckets of water into the cave when the three Settlement Chiefs were busy beating the Demon Lord up.
When he entered the cave, Shan Yu took a look at the completely drenched Shan Yu who was lying in the gra.s.s.
So…
Here comes the question.
“Do I shower first, or should I help Shan Yu shower first, or do we shower together?” Fang Zhengzhi was in a difficult situation.
