Chapter 474 - 458: The Final Battle with Ying Cheng’en (3/3)
When Fang Heqing spoke like that, Zhou Heng understood; it turned out this fellow had long since allied himself with Ying Cheng’en.
It made sense, after all. A strategic talent like him was truly invaluable to an ambitious overlord like Ying Cheng’en who aspired to carve out a vast empire! Because, no matter how much military genius Ying Cheng’en possessed, this was ultimately a world where personal strength reigned supreme.
As the leader, Ying Cheng’en had to have the strongest cultivation level, which meant he was destined to spend most of his time on cultivation and not have much time to deal with the affairs of Heaven’s Grace Sect.
Fang Heqing was undoubtedly the best substitute.
In this case, this guy must have been living quite comfortably.
Zhou Heng’s gaze swept across and he couldn’t help but be slightly startled as he said, "Brother Fang, you haven’t received the Bloodline Power of the Ying Family?"
Fang Heqing smiled and replied, "When I first joined Heaven’s Grace Sect, Ying Cheng’en did not have the ability to bestow Bloodline Power on others, and by the time he had that ability, I had already heard about the grudges between Brother Zhou and Ying Cheng’en, so I politely declined the gracious offer from Ying Cheng’en to endow me with Bloodline Power."
Zhou Heng thought to himself that if you had agreed, you might have been devoured by Ying Cheng’en by now! However, Fang Heqing was a strategic talent, and Ying Cheng’en probably wasn’t foolish enough to "eat" someone who could truly share his worries and solve his problems.
But then again, Ying Cheng’en likely didn’t know that the collapse of Xuanqian Star was imminent. What’s the use of establishing such a grand foundation here when the day of the continent’s demise arrives, and any grand ambition would turn to smoke.
In that case, Fang Heqing’s position wasn’t that important after all, because Ying Cheng’en couldn’t take his army into the Immortal Realm!
