“Keep!”

“Keep again!”

“KEEP!”

As Fang Zhengzhi shouted helplessly again and again, all the nine worlds in the Great Formation of Nine Cataclysms finally entered the black metal box.

Fang Zhengzhi felt that everything had happened too quickly for him to be ready.

When the Great Formation of Nine Cataclysms was finally broken, the real Ninth Heaven appeared so quickly before him that he went slack-jawed.

The blessed rain fell from the sky and splashed onto the ground paved with white rocks, where nine white pillars stood erected.

Most importantly...there was an altar-like platform at the center of the nine pillars. A flight of stairs extended from the platform to his feet.

“Is this the real Ninth Heaven?” Fang Zhengzhi looked up and enjoyed the refreshing rain, as if he had finally seen the sun after experiencing endless darkness.

Chi Guyan didn’t say a thing, she only stared intently at the center of the altar.

“Is there another treasure?” Fang Zhengzhi’s attention was attracted by the radiance on the altar, and he walked up the stairs subconsciously.

Instead of stopping Fang Zhengzhi, Chi Guyan followed him up the stairs.

Fang Zhengzhi soon found out where the light was coming from.

It was a circular stone table with a carving of a meticulous painting of a woman wearing a long dress.

However, Fang Zhengzhi wasn’t too interested in the carving, he was focusing on a ‘weird’ jewel that was placed at the center of the stone table.

The jewel was ‘weird’, because it didn’t look like an ordinary jewel. Instead of being round or squarish, it was shaped like a drop of water.

Moreover, it was suspended in the air.

However, this drop of water was certainly a jewel, because there was a golden glow on its surface. There even seemed to be something flowing inside the drop of water. It appeared to be a painting, but it was too blurry to be seen clearly.

There was a simple solution to this problem...”Take it home to study it properly, and I might make a fortune out of it.”

This was Fang Zhengzhi’s idea, in fact, he was already going to do that. However, he felt that he needed to be more cautious before attempting to take the jewel.

He had read enough stories to know treasures were normally guarded by powerful beasts, but given the current situation, that wasn’t possible.

In that case, there should be traps laying around.

Hence, he believed that he should discuss this with Chi Guyan before doing anything. After all, she had always been more knowledgeable than him.

Furthermore, finders keepers.

“Do you want it?” Fang Zhengzhi asked.

“Do you?” Chi Guyan replied with a question.

“...” Fang Zhengzhi’s lips twitched. Gazing at her pretty face, Fang Zhengzhi’s mind drifted off to somewhere else.

On top of a big bed, a guy asked, “Do you want it?”, and the girl replied, “Do you?”

Fang Zhengzhi shook his head and quickly discarded such unhealthy thoughts. Putting on a serious expression, he said, “I think that this jewel is the reward for reaching the Ninth Heaven. What do you think?”

“Maybe.” Chi Guyan didn’t nod or shake her head, and she obviously wasn’t going to move. She just stood beside Fang Zhengzhi quietly.

“Should I take it first?” I’ll try to split it into two after we get out of the Divine Rain Pond, and we’ll split it evenly?” Fang Zhengzhi suggested.

“It’s ok. You can have it.” Chi Guyan clearly wasn’t going to fight him over the jewel.

“Finders keepers, we’ll each take half!” Fang Zhengzhi spoke his mind.

He might be shameless, but he only did that to his enemies. Fang Zhengzhi never liked to take advantage of his friends.

“There isn’t much time left before the Divine Rain Pond closes. I want to ask you a few questions before that happens!” Chi Guyan didn’t continue arguing with Fang Zhengzhi about the jewel. She raised her head slightly and looked as she was deep in her thoughts.

“Oh? Go ahead!” Fang Zhengzhi agreed generously.

“Between you and I, who do you think have won the bet?” Chi Guyan said while staring at him seriously.

“Well...My name was announced first, right?” Fang Zhengzhi didn’t expect her to ask about this.

As generous as he was, he still had to stand by his principles. Since his name was announced first, he was obviously the winner. This was scientifically proven.

“Do you really want to leave Heaven Dao Pavilion?’ Chi Guyan seemed to have expected his answer. Instead of arguing about who the winner was, she changed the topic and asked another question.

“Of course!” Fang Zhengzhi didn’t know what she was trying to say, but he had thought about this question carefully, so he answered without any hesitation.

“Where are you going after leaving Heaven Dao Pavilion?” She asked again.

“The Holy Region is so big, so I want to travel around before making my decision.” Fang Zhengzhi replied.

“That’s right, the Holy Region is very big. Yin Yang Hall’s Wan Lei died at our hands, Nine Pinnacles Mountain Leader Tian Xing’s disappearance also had something to do with us. Although there are no grudges between us and Fu Xi Valley, Gu Yuan must have spread your story to the entire Fu Xi Valley. As for Ling Yun Tower...” Chi Guyan stopped speaking at this moment.

“I didn’t expect to offend all the five sects of Holy Region right after I got here. If I knew it, I’d have kept a low profile. Now I really don’t have anywhere to go to, haha...” Just as Chi Guyan said, given the current situation, there was no place in the Holy Region for him.

“Shameless thief, we’ve known each other for 10 years already, right?” Chi Guyan’s tone changed.

“Yeah, it’s been 10 years.” Fang Zhengzhi nodded. 10 years had passed since he kicked Chi Guyan into the river during their first encounter.

“To be honest, if you have more time to spare, even if it’s just another year, I wouldn’t stop you from leaving Heaven Dao Pavilion, and I wouldn’t have competed against you in the Ninth Heaven.” Chi Guyan continued.

“I know that.”

Just as she said, it had been 10 years, so they knew well about each other. If she had another choice, she wouldn’t have swallowed her pride.

Given her pride, she’d never have set him up even before they entered the Divine Rain Pond! The arrogant Chi Guyan would never mislead Fang Zhengzhi on the Eighth Heaven and even attempt to strike him with a sneak attack!

However...Chi Guyan did all of that!

The only explanation was that she was determined to win the bet even if she had to swallow her pride.

“You have less than three months left. There might even be people coming after you if you leave Heaven Dao Pavilion. Have you really made up your mind?’ Chi Guyan asked again after a brief silence.

“Yeah, I’ve made up my mind!” Fang Zhengzhi was determined.

“Is it simply because of your pride as a man? If that’s the case, I’m willing to concede defeat and become your bed warmer. I’ll do my duty as your servant and go out to look for the resources you need. All you need to do is train peacefully in Heaven Dao Pavilion. That...”

“This isn’t because of my pride. I have always made the same choice between my life and my pride. If I couldn’t win a fight, I’d definitely run away. However, this time, it’s different!”

“What’s different about it?”

“You, because the one risking her life is you. I can be shameless when it comes to others, but I’m not shameless enough to watch you risk your life for me, while I hide in Heaven Dao Pavilion like a coward!”

“...” Chi Guyan gone silent. She stared at Fang Zhengzhi quietly with an unknown expression.

“Relax, I’ve benefitted greatly from my time at the Heaven Dao Pavilion. I also remembered the positions of some of the best treasures in the Holy Region. Furthermore, I’ve discovered new ways to improve my strength after experiencing the Nine Heavens. There’s still hope for me to break through in three months!” Fang Zhengzhi continued.

“I got it. Shameless thief, you’ve actually won the bet by breaking the Great Formation of Nine Cataclysms, because it meant that you’ve passed the Ninth Heaven. Leave the rest to me and leave!” Chi Guyan finally nodded.

“The rest?” Fang Zhengzhi looked puzzled.

“Do you really think you can take the nine Heaven Dao Sage Tablets and the ‘Spiritual Jade’ away so easily? After leaving the Divine Rain Pond, I’d inform my master right away that you threatened me with the bet so that I can’t attack you, and you took the nine Heaven Dao Sage Tablets away while I wasn’t watching. I’m thinking...Since you aren’t returning to Heaven Dao Pavilion anymore, it’s ok if they come after you, right?” As Chi Guyan ended her sentence, she was no longer looking worried like before. She blinked at Fang Zhengzhi as her lips curled into a smug smile.
