Fang Yun had deliberately mentioned Ao Wushan with another meaning in mind. If he encountered truly grave danger, he could escape. If they stayed together, he could save Yun Yangzhao, but not his Mountain Island. Thus, if Yun Yangzhao did not mind losing his Mountain Island, Fang Yun was willing to join forces with him.
Yun Yangzhao was experienced and understood Fang Yun's meaning immediately. Besides, he was a Fourth Realm Great Scholar himself. Unless his luck was exceptionally bad, he would certainly encounter no problems in the early stages. From what they could see, Mountain Islands were central to this opening of the Divine Gift Mountains and Seas. Abandoning one would be too great a loss.
Fang Yun continued, "I considered joining forces earlier, too. Each opening of the Divine Gift Mountains and Seas lasts longer than the previous one. This time, it will remain open for at least a month, and perhaps as long as two. In about twenty days, I will find a way to unite the other races against the Demon Barbarians."
Yun Yangzhao considered this, then nodded. "All right. I will keep contacting members of the Human Race and the Star Demon Barbarians to prepare for later. But what do you think of this blue peak?"
Fang Yun glanced at the blue peak, which had already closed up, and said calmly, "With treasure before us, how could we not take it? That Chāngchi is hardly weak, but under the influence of the Burial Saint Valley, its strength has fallen from its peak. To me, it is merely a slightly troublesome opponent."
Yun Yangzhao thought for a moment and said, "I cannot fight that fiend, but while you battle it, I will stay behind you to prevent Crocodile Choker King or any other enemies from intervening."
