Gate of God Chapter 239: Overtake

Chapter 239: Overtake

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

Fang Zhengzhi was shocked by this.

The Dao of all Creation was extremely cryptic and embodied the constant changes in the world. However, there were still rules that governed it. For example, for one to ride the wind, one had to go in the direction of the winds.

One could not simply fly in a desired direction.

That was simply ridiculous.

All this while, Fang Zhengzhi had thought that he was already quite powerful. He had topped both the County and Provincial Examinations easily.

He also topped the theory portion of the imperial examinations.

After seeing Xing Qingsui’s and Nangong Mu’s abilities in the combat examination, he knew that it would be difficult to top the combat examinations.

Even so, he had confidence to rank in the top three.

With such a smooth sailing journey, it was inevitable that he would be a little arrogant. However, after seeing Chi Guyan’s strange powers…

He finally understood why all of the officials in the Divine Constabulary and the capital were in disbelief when he said that he would defeat Chi Guyan in two years.

The top ranked individual on two dragon rolls.

Just a year ago, Chi Guyan had attained the pinnacle of the Heavenly Reflection State at 13, surpassing all the other talents under 18.

There were no less than 15 pinnacle Heavenly Reflection cultivators on the Rising Dragon Roll.

They were all in the same cultivation state, but their abilities were vastly different.

Furthermore, this was a year ago. Over the past year, Chi Guyan had not involved herself in the affairs of the world. She had focused on cultivating all this time. How powerful was she now?

No one knew.

He was slightly exasperated and heartbroken.

However, Fang Zhengzhi would not give up so easily. A battle did not depend solely on abilities. Plan, strategy, technique, all played an important role.

For example, if he could not beat her with just his hands, he would use his feet, or secret weapons, powder, etc. He could use them at the most critical moments. If all else fails…

He could use his teeth!

This was scientifically proven. In his previous world, one of the fighting champions had used this method to great effect. Imagine this, two people are fighting when all of a sudden, one of them opens his mouth wide. This would surprise his opponent and render him unable to defend in time.

In actual fact, Fang Zhengzhi wanted to ask Chi Guyan how she did it. But, he had to keep up first…

Follow closely.

Chi Guyan was already through the main door of the camp. She was already about to disappear.

Fang Zhengzhi charged towards the camp like an agile leopard. Even though he was nowhere near as quick as Chi Guyan, he did not lag far behind.

Furthermore, Chi Guyan had to despatch the sentries as she went along. This slowed her down and gave Fang Zhengzhi a chance to catch up.

Before long.

He saw Chi Guyan once again.

Chi Guyan rushing through an army camp was the soldiers’ worst nightmare. Before they could react, they were suppressed by her.

In the moment Chi Guyan passed them, they froze in their positions, just like what happened with the two guards at the main gate.

“Dead? Or suppressed?”

Fang Zhengzhi did not take a close look. His main objective was to follow closely behind Chi Guyan.

“Quickly! Just a little quicker!” Fang Zhengzhi muttered encouragement to himself. He controlled the wind under his feet and swept through the camp.

He was close!

Fang Zhengzhi could see that he was closing in on Chi Guyan. His lips twitched in disdain. She isn’t that fast after all…

Of course, Fang Zhengzhi did not have to go through the hassle of despatching all those soldiers. He completely ignored that fact at this point.

“What if I overtake her? She would be so embarrassed…” Just as Fang Zhengzhi was thinking about that, he smirked, “Just before I overtake her, I should smile and pat her on the shoulder. Then, I should give her a friendly greeting! That would drive the point home!”

He began to think of Chi Guyan’s reaction, making him smile even more radiantly than before.

“I will make sure you will be… embarrassed!”

He was getting close…

He was getting really close!

Fang Zhengzhi was so close to Chi Guyan that he could smell the fragrance she wore. His eyes glowed, almost like a wolf who had spotted its prey.

“Okay, let’s start with a greeting!”

Fang Zhengzhi extended his hand and reached for Chi Guyan’s shoulder.

“Haish, why are you so slow? I’ll be on my way… f*ck… me!” Before Fang Zhengzhi could finish, he felt himself crash against her.

He finally reached her!

Fang Zhengzhi never expected that to happen, neither did he expect Chi Guyan to stop all of a sudden.

But it happened.

Chi Guyan had stopped all of a sudden. She had stopped with no warning or greeting.

She was speeding away one moment, and completely stationary the next.

She looked like she was floating away elegantly one moment, and then it was almost as if time froze.

Fang Zhengzhi was definitely not as elegant.

He had calculated Chi Guyan’s speed. He knew that he did not have to slow down when approaching her.

Even if he went at full speed, he would require at least three seconds before he could slowly overtake Chi Guyan.

What was even more shocking was that the moment Chi Guyan stopped, her aura seemed to completely vanish.

If Chi Guyan was like an unsheathed sword previously, then she was like a bamboo shoot in the forest when she stopped.

Fang Zhengzhi crashed right into her, pushing her into the ground.

She did not even resist.

He felt like he was lying on a soft sponge. She was soft and warm, but Fang Zhengzhi could not enjoy it. Chi Guyan turned around and stared at him.

Her eyes continued to glimmer like stars in the sky, her gaze stilled filled with her congenital arrogance.

But this was not the most important point.

There was a trickle of red by Chi Guyan’s mouth, and it stood out from her pale complexion. It was like a rose petal in a bed of snow.

“She’s injured?!”

Fang Zhengzhi could not believe that Chi Guyan was injured. Did she injure herself? Or was it from the fall I caused?

This did not seem quite possible. No matter how fast or powerful he was, Chi Guyan’s abilities should have been sufficient to prevent her from getting injured.

In the end…

Before Fang Zhengzhi could come to a conclusion, he heard Chi Guyan’s voice.

“What are you doing here?”

The question was quite queer. Fang Zhengzhi was certain that Chi Guyan did not direct the question to him, but, who was she directing it to?

He subconsciously raised his head.

He suddenly realized that there was someone in front of Chi Guyan.

This person was dressed in ordinary armor and wore the helmet of a Great Xia Dynasty soldier. This person did not look any different from any other soldier.

However, this person had crystal clear eyes.

Eyes as clear and pure as water.

Fang Zhengzhi recognized these eyes. He had only seen one person in the Great Xia Dynasty with such clear eyes.

That person was Ping Yang.

“Sister Yan!” The crisp voice rang out, confirming Fang Zhengzhi’s suspicions. However, it also piqued his curiosity.

Ping Yang?!

“What are you doing here?” Fang Zhengzhi repeated Chi Guyan’s question.

What would a princess of the Great Xia Dynasty be doing in an ordinary army camp in Cang Ling Mountain?

There was nothing more surprising than this.

Fang Zhengzhi could not think of something more unbelievable.

Why would Ping Yang, who was supposed to be in the capital, appear in the Northern Territories? Furthermore, why would she be in an army camp, and one that they were passing through?

The probability of this happening was so incredibly slim it was almost negligible.

“Oh? It is you? The shameless one?! Oh my god… why are you lying on Sister Yan, get up!” Ping Yang’s voice rang out again in displeasure.

Fang Zhengzhi could hear what Ping Yang was driving at.

Indeed.

Even though what Ping Yang said was simple, it revealed that she had expected to see Chi Guyan here.

How did Ping Yang know that he and Chi Guyan would be on Cang Ling Mountain today?

That was impossible.

This was a last minute decision. How could Ping Yang possibly have known about it? How could she have planned to be here beforehand?

Fang Zhengzhi wanted to ask why.

But now was clearly not the right time. They were still in an army camp.

Furthermore…

This was an army camp on high alert.

If Chi Guyan had continued on at her speed, she could have shut each soldier up before they had the chance to speak.

However, Chi Guyan was squashed underneath Fang Zhengzhi.

The result was well within expectations.

“We’re under attack!”

“Someone has sneaked up the mountain, lock the gates!”

“If you see the intruder, kill him!”

Voices rang out from all around them. In an instant, the entire camp sprang to life as soldiers rushed out from their tents.

“Outrageous!” Ping Yang looked on haughtily, her arms akimbo.

At this point, Fang Zhengzhi felt a powerful wave of force from beneath him. Then, his body was carried by this wave of force.

“Let’s go!”

Chi Guyan carried Fang Zhengzhi as she left. Surprisingly, she did not blame Fang Zhengzhi, instead, she carried him and Ping Yang and rushed out of the army camp.

Fang Zhengzhi began to get a little suspicious.

Why would a small army camp make Chi Guyan so nervous?
