After saying that, Murong Zhen pulled out a dagger and decisively stabbed it into his own heart.

'Clang!' The dagger fell to the ground, and the Queen was so angry that her eyes turned red.

She was reluctant to part with Murong Zhen, not only because she was reluctant to part with this strategist, but also because...

However, given Murong Zhen's intelligence, he likely already knew that I wouldn't let him die!

The conflicting feelings enraged the Empress Dowager!

"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you this once. I promise you, I won't swallow this immortal right away!"

The Empress pointed at Murong Zhen and began to curse, but Murong Zhen just listened with pursed lips. In the end, she had no choice but to stomp her foot and say, "You said the thug in the suit would come? Fine, I'll spare this immortal's life and wait for Fang Zong to come! I'm going to use the Nine Old Man's Withering and Flourishing Divine Power to defeat Fang Zong in front of you. I want you to know that I am the true ruler of the world!"

"The Empress Dowager is wise." Murong Zhen clasped his hands in a gesture of respect.

He glanced at Zeng Rou, who was still unconscious, out of the corner of his eye, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as we don't eat it now, and don't kill it immediately, that's fine.

If this deity were killed, and Fang Zong were to arrive, there would be no turning back. But since the goddess is still alive, Fang Zong will not truly kill her.

Fang Zong raises ghosts, while Xiao Hou raises people.

Before eliminating the ghostly forces like the Yinshan Ghost King, the Empress only mentioned defeating Fang Zong, not killing him.

Similarly, Fang Zong didn't want to kill the Empress Dowager for the time being...

As darkness fell, the dark clouds in the east moved toward this side with the night wind.

Not long after, a light rain began to fall, and at the end of the road in the distance, two figures, one human and one cat, slowly appeared.

"Isn't it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar? Murong Zhen greets you with courtesy." On the top floor of the unfinished building, Murong Zhen cupped his hands in greeting to Fang Zong.

Fang Zong narrowed his eyes, smiled, and said directly, "Speak."

"Alright, you're still letting me speak, that's giving me plenty of face."

Murong Zhen had a very accurate understanding of his own abilities. He knew he was sharp-tongued, and Fang Zong also knew he was sharp-tongued. For Fang Zong to get him to speak was a huge favor to him.

He helped Zeng Rou up and said to Fang Zong, "First of all, we didn't arrest this goddess; someone framed her."

Fang Zong: "And then?"

“We should have presented it with both hands, and it should have been intact, but I have long admired you, Brother Zong, and would like to have a friendly exchange with you.”

Fang Zong chuckled: "This wasn't your idea, was it?"

Logically speaking, Murong Zhen wouldn't be so foolish as to want to test his own strength.

Given Murong Zhen's personality, he would never do anything like testing someone unless he was 70% sure. He also didn't think that Murong Zhen would look down on him, who was called the 'ghost nemesis' by the ghosts.

"Yes, it wasn't Strategist Murong's idea, but mine. So what?"

Suddenly, a large, beautiful face appeared in the sky.

The giant face was a hundred meters in diameter, and it looked to be about the same size as Thanos. However, Fang Zong would not underestimate the Queen of the Owls, because in the valley last time, the Queen of the Owls was already able to use mist to conjure up a giant human face.

There weren't that many powerful individuals back then; one can only say that the Empress was exceptionally gifted.

When the Queen of the Hedgehog was alive, she was worthless and had no background, but she was very talented. She was a genius among the living, and she was a genius among the ghosts.

"Not good at all, I'm giving you credit!"

Fang Zong suddenly charged forward, his figure like a fierce tiger, bursting into action.

He charged straight at the giant face that materialized high in the sky, ignoring the densely packed demonic corpses appearing on every floor of the unfinished building. He aimed to capture the leader first and punched the Queen's magical miniature world.

"Meow, you can't steal your human's treats!"

Tiger Overlord jumped off Fang Zong's shoulder in mid-air, his mouth suddenly widening, and with a roar, he swallowed more than a dozen demon corpses.

Then squat in mid-air and chew slowly.

"Good timing!"

The Empress Dowager didn't care about the dozen or so demon corpses at the Technique level. She focused her mind and used her supernatural power to create a small world, which directly swept Fang Zong into it.

She said she didn't care about Fang Zong, but she knew about the nationwide projection call and didn't underestimate him, so she went all out!

"The Nine Elders have changed their fortunes! Fang Zong, you'd better become an old man first!"

The Queen knew she couldn't touch Fang Zong's body. Even now, the ghosts all know they absolutely cannot be caught by Fang Zong, or they will suffer terribly.

However, that was when we were at the level of magic or below. Now that we have achieved supernatural powers, who would still fight in close combat?

She laughed heartily, extremely pleased with herself.
