Chapter 940: Correct The Mistake Immediately!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
At 9 o'clock at night, a science education program, which should be serious, ended in such a funny way.
All the audiences around Huaxia gave favorable comments to this program, for this live broadcast was even funnier than variety shows. Countless audiences were amused by the combination of Xu Que and Buttface. This combination became so popular in Huaxia overnight. This program also became a hot topic.
Many airline companies had agreed to issue VIP cards to Buttface and even arrange first-class passage for him. However, he changed his mind when he arrived at the airport. He drove away with an empty plane and flew it directly to Huaxia from the R Nation.
A lot of people were scared by his actions. Before people could work out a solution, Buttface had driven the plane to Capital City in Huaxia and crashed in the interview booth where Xu Que was. At the end of the program, Buttface was lying on the ground unconscious with his tongue out of his mouth. When Xu Que dragged his tail, everyone was amused. Buttface's expression became the source material of various Emoji packages.
Luckily, Xu Que chose to keep a low profile for several days after this. The world also calmed down.
One day, Xu Que, who was staying in a hotel, couldn't help but smile as he looked at the interface of the System. His Acting Tough Points had been rocketing up since his return to Earth. He was quite smart to mute the System, or he would be driven mad by the System's warning tone.
Generally speaking, he had really earned a lot at this time.
Before this, he only had around 1 million Acting Tough Points. Now, the value had exceeded 2.3 million.
In other words, he had earned altogether 1.3 million Acting Tough Points in less than 20 days on Earth!
Unfortunately, the three times award effect of the Mutant Counterfeit Cigarettes was only available in the World of Cultivators and ceased to be in effect on Earth. Otherwise, he could have earned nearly 4 million Acting Tough Points this time.
It was quite strange that the rate of growth of his Acting Tough Points slowed down when the total value reached 2.3 million. The growth had almost stopped today. It seemed he had encountered a bottleneck.
"System, are you going to force me to upgrade again? Why is the growth of my Acting Tough Points stopped suddenly?" Xu Que asked the System in the hotel.
The System replied briefly that the Acting Tough Points he could earn on Earth had reached their upper limit.
After all, this was a world of ordinary people. What he could do to act tough was quite limited. Because of the well-developed network, he would become famous whenever he made a big noise. Therefore, his Acting Tough Points increased rapidly. But the value had reached its upper limit.
After pondering for a while, Xu Que said, changing his expression, "Does this mean the Acting Tough Points I could earn in each world are limited? And I couldn't get more when the upper limit is reached, right?"
The System replied, "Theoretically, yes! However, when new lives in this world have developed their cognition abilities, the Acting Tough Points will still be awarded to the Host accordingly!"
Damn!
Xu Que didn't know how to describe his current feeling.
According to the reply of the System, when the newly born infants on Earth grew up, he could earn more Acting Tough Points.
I really have no time for that!
"Forget it! Since I can earn no more Acting Tough Points, I should prepare to go back to the World of Cultivators after solving the remaining issues!" Xu Que made up his mind immediately. Anyway, it was quite boring to be invincible on Earth. The entire world knew he was powerful. Therefore, nobody would be startled if he made any big noise again. Maybe this was the reason the System determined his Acting Tough Points had reached their upper limit.
Whoosh!
Xu Que waved his hand on the couch. Xu Feifei's laptop appeared in his hand the next moment. Then he opened the world map.
He started to prepare the following plan and schedule. He would go to the rest of the Spell Cores to get the heritage. Then he would go to all places of historic interest and scenic beauty to check whether he could get any windfalls.
"Wait! Right! I almost forgot I still have some ants to wipe out. I won't let you go easily!"
Suddenly, an idea occurred to Xu Que, who sat up on the couch with a smile immediately.
He took out his phone and made a phone call.
…
That night, the M Nation took action and banished all members of the Xia Family and forbade them to go back to the M Nation again in future. The Xia Family was in terror and despair. Actually, when they knew the three powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe were killed by Xu Que, they realized their family was doomed.
In these days, the M Nation kept wiping out the rest of the branches of the Rothschild Family. The Xia Family thought a big shot like Xu Que had forgotten them. They never expected they would be banished by the M Nation. All members of this family were sent back to Huaxia.
Before landing in Huaxia, all members of the Xia Family, including Xia Luoqing's grandpa, parents, and Xia Yunhai were quite serious.
"Grandpa, this is all my fault! Let me face Xu Que alone. No matter what he will do to me, I hope he won't vent his fury on the Xia Family! Now I know the Xia Family has done enough for me!" Xia Luoqing said in a beaten voice.
This time he didn't pretend. They had escaped to the M Nation from Huaxia and taken shelter with the Rothschild Family. Then they saw Xu Que kill the three angels with their own eyes. At last, the Rothschild Family was wiped out, and they were driven back to Huaxia. Now, he had realized he and his family were just ants for Xu Que.
He knew he would definitely be killed. Also, if he didn't step up, the entire Xia Family would also be eliminated, including his grandpa and his parents. Therefore, he couldn't believe he was willing to undertake all the responsibilities alone!
"My son,…" Xia Luoqing's mother cried out, "is there really nobody who could defeat Xu Que?"
His father, who was sitting beside them, said nothing as he shook his head. It seemed he had grown old overnight.
His grandpa sighed, "How wonderful if you could have understood it earlier!"
"People have to experience tribulation before knowing previous stupid things! The most serious things that happened before were just trifles when I review them now. Before this, I thought I was powerful and could do anything. Now, I know, we are nothing even without being reminded by Xu Que. It is a pity that I know all of this too late!" Xia Luoqing said with a self-deprecating smile.
Boom!
Suddenly, the plane trembled abruptly. Along with a flash of lightning, a figure appeared in the cabin from nowhere.
People looked up and were shocked by what they saw immediately. They didn't expect that the one who appeared in the cabin would be Xu Que!
"Heh-heh, it is not too late for you to understand this!" Xu Que said with a faint smile as he looked at Xia Luoqing.
Xia Luoqing was as pale as a ghost. Actually, he had almost forgotten Xu Que's appearance. After watching his majestic movements on TV and the efficient killing of the angels, Xia Luoqing wouldn't forget Xu Que's appearance anymore.
"Xu Que!" Xia Luoqing said as he stood up with difficulty, "I know I did wrong to you. I don't expect I could get your forgiveness. But could you please just kill me and let the rest of my family go?"
"What? Are you still in the position to negotiate with me?" Xu Que snorted immediately.
"I am not negotiating with you. I am begging you!" After saying that, Xia Luoqing knelt down directly and looked at Xu Que sturdily.
"Alas!" Xu Que sighed as he shook his head. "In fact, now I am powerful enough and don't want to haggle with you. Also, I've sensed your sincere repentance!"
Xia Luoqing said with a wry smile, "Life is just like this. However, the precondition of repentance is the remorse. There is no regret medicine in this world. It is too late!"
"It is not too late!" Xu Que replied with a faint smile. "My question is if I let you and the Xia Family go, will you continue to do evil in future?"
His words quieted the entire cabin down. Everyone looked at Xu Que in a daze.
Xia Luoqing's grandpa stood up totteringly.
Xia Luoqing's parents looked at Xu Que in disbelief.
Xia Luoqing and Xia Yunhai also looked at Xu Que with pleasant surprise in their eyes.
"No, we won't! If you let us go, the Xia Family will never do evil in future, or all of us will be struck by lightning!" Xia Luoqing promised immediately.
"Good! To be able to correct a mistake is the greatest virtue!" Xu Que nodded his head with a smile.
Before the members of the Xia Family had time to be happy, Xu Que said with a sarcastic smile, "But it is none of my business whether you will do evil in the future or not! Do you really think I could let you go? Do you really think I am a merciful god? I don't want to be a damn good person! Tit for tat is the principle of the Exploding Heavens Faction!"
After saying that, he raised his hand abruptly. A strand of violent green flame appeared in his palm.
Boom!
He waved his hand. The magnificent Molten Green Lotus gushed toward all members of the Xia Family like a serpent.
When Xu Que flew toward the horizon, the plane behind him, which was loaded with all members of the Xia Family, exploded into scraps and fell down in flames.
When the plane's captain and air hostesses landed on the ground safely, they shook all over and stared at the devil-like figure, which was flying away by stepping on lightning, in a daze.
Chapter 941: Control the Spell Cores

That night, Xu Que went back to the hotel in a leisurely manner as if nothing had happened.
Elimination of the Xia Family had been something he had had to do!
Tit for tat had always been his principle. Even if his enemy really wanted to correct their mistakes, he still wouldn't forgive them. People had to pay for the mistakes they had made.
Moreover, he had given an opportunity to the Xia Family. If they would hand over Xia Luoqing according to his request, he wouldn't wipe out the entire Xia Family.
However, the Xia Family chose to cooperate with the Rothschild Family by leading the three powerhouses of the Heavenly Human Tribe to Earth. Apparently, they were going to try to kill Xu Que for the second time.
According to Xu Que's style, he would never let these people go.
Tolerance would never appear in Xu Que's dictionary.
His motto was just two sentences – I won't offend those who don't offend me first. Those who offend me will be killed by me!
Therefore, in his mind, he was neither a good person nor a bad person. He was simply Xu Que, who was the unparalleled most handsome man in the world.
…
The next day, the Xia Family's elimination was mentioned in the newspaper, and the story claimed that the reason was an ordinary plane crash, and thus it was ignored by many people.
…
Xu Que woke up Buttface. Then he set out for the places of historical interest and scenic beauty together with Jiang Hongyan, Xu Feifei, and Buttface.
Their first destination was the Pyramids of Egypt. This was a place full of mysterious and controversial stories. Nobody expected that a restrictive spell had been placed under this place, which had been intact for the past 10,000 years.
When Buttface arrived at this place, he disdained the Sphinx and said arrogantly, "Little brat, push over this thing and replace it with my statue!"
Xu Que knocked on Buttface's forehead with his fist… Then he stepped onto the Pyramid and lifted the restrictive spell with the assistance of the System. Several days later, Xu Que managed to gain control over the spell core of the second restrictive spell on Earth.
However, this time he didn't get any runes. Maybe because nothing was left there, or because Xu Que was the wrong bloodline, he didn't know the exact reason for that. He shook his head and said he didn't want to waste his time on it. They left for the next Spell Core directly.
Buttface didn't want to leave and insisted on building a statue of himself. At last, Xu Que stared at him ferociously, which terrified him. Before their departure, Buttface carved Buttface of the Exploding Heavens Faction visited this place on the Pyramid!
Because of this, he was punished by Xu Que's fists again!
Howl! "Stop beating me! I know what I should do!" Buttface ran back to the Pyramid and carved Xu Que of the Exploding Heavens Faction visited this place!
"Crap!" Xu Que was so annoyed that he couldn't help but beat Buttface up on the way.
Their second destination was Stonehenge in England.
Several days later, Xu Que gained control over this Spell Core again. However, he didn't find any windfall.
In this way, Xu Que traveled around for the next month:
The Underwater Ruins in the R Nation;
Baalbek in Lebanon;
Machu Picchu in Peru;
Chichen Itza in Mexico.
All Spell Cores of the restrictive spells hidden in the famous places on Earth were obtained and controlled by Xu Que. Although he didn't get any windfalls, he had gained control over the restrictive spells of Earth completely. From this moment, he had become the real controller of Earth.
Also, after finishing this trip, Xu Que realized that these extraordinary Spell Cores were not all set up by one person, but by several big shots.
It was highly possible that one of the Patriarchs of the Heavenly Human Tribe used to stay on Easter Island, where he had set up Spell Cores together with others.
What happened in those years? Why did those big shots choose to set up such powerful spells together? Xu Que asked himself.
Jiang Hongyan said in a low voice, "I think we could find some records in the ruins of some ancient sects!"
"Right!" Xu Que nodded his head.
It was something he was just about to do. He planned to go to Mount Kunlun, which was full of myths and legends.
"Let's go to Mount. Kunlun. Then we will leave this world, no matter whether we find a windfall there or not!" Xu Que said.
Buttface said, "Why do we have to leave in such a hurry? I haven't had enough fun yet. I haven't had enough time to enjoy all these delicacies! How can I leave now?"
"It is quite boring to stay in this world. Moreover, the Four Great Continents are in danger. We will have plenty of opportunities to come back to this world in the future!" Xu Que said, shaking his head.
He had accumulated enough Acting Tough Points to upgrade the System to Version 10.0. At that time, he could purchase many Space-Breaking Spells from the System, which could help him to go back to Earth at any time.
Therefore, he decided to go back to the Four Great Continents and defeat the Emperor first. Then he could start to enjoy his life.
"The problem is we can't go back easily! We don't know whether there is a Void Interface Point in this world. Anyway, we can't go back by following the way we came here!" Buttface said.
Xu Que nodded his head slightly. He needed to find a Void Interface Point before he could go back to the Four Great Continents by using a Space- Breaking Spell.
However, the runes obtained by Jiang Hongyan in the ruins of the ancient sect in the mountain at the rear part of the Capital University mentioned that a lot of sects used to leave this world. Although the way to leave this world was not mentioned, the runes said they had to go through a door to a broader world.
Xu Que guessed that door would be a Void Interface Point. And it was not very difficult to find it. Anyway, Earth was a small planet. After leaving Mount Kunlun, they would find it somewhere.
"Let's go to the No. One Sacred Mountain!"
After saying that, Xu Que dashed toward Mount Kunlun together with his teammates.
…
Mount Kunlun, which was also known as the Void of Kunlun, was the No. One sacred mountain and leader of all mountains of Huaxia. It was so mythical.
From ancient times, this mountain had been named by the ancient people as the Ancestor of the Dragon Veins. In some ancient mythologies, the Queen Mother of the West, who had a head of a human being and a body of a leopard and was served by two green birds, was living on Mount Kunlun. She worked together with the Emperor of the East in the management of meetings and guiding the female and male cultivators, respectively.
Xu Que thought he was a decent person and had no interest in a woman with a leopard's body. He just wanted to check whether the mythologies were true and find all possible opportunities and wealth.
However, when they landed on Mount Kunlun, they were amazed by the majestic mountains covered by white snow.
"I didn't expect such a big barrier spell could be hidden in these mountains!" Jiang Hongyan said in surprise.
…
Apparently, what surprised them was not this majestic mountain but an enormous spell that surrounded the mountain peak.
They couldn't sense any Spiritual Qi fluctuation in this spell, which isolated the mountain peak completely. Ordinary people could never sense its existence. Xu Que and his teammates wouldn't have found this spell if they hadn't come to this place for a different reason.
After looking at this spell for a while, Xu Que said in puzzlement, "This spell is isolated from the outside world. All Spiritual Qi is blocked by it, and it hasn't been opened for at least 10,000 years. Maybe cultivators are still living in it! Even the Queen Mother of the West may be in this spell…."
Chapter 942: The Illusory Spell Of Mount Kunlun
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Xu Que was surprised, for he hadn't expected such an enormous spell would exist on Mount Kunlun.
The spell was quiet and well-hidden, and hadn't been opened for more than 10,000 years. For such a long time, it had been completely isolated from the outside world.
It was hard to imagine that, if a World of Cultivators really existed in this spell, how would the cultivators survive? Was their life like that of the Heavenly Human Tribe?
"Little brat, don't overthink it. Just open the spell, and I will go inside to find opportunities and wealth!" Buttface said excitedly. Apparently, he believed something good was hidden in this spell, which aroused his interest.
"If the Queen Mother of the West is in there, I'm afraid you will be punished by her if you dare to enter!" Xu Que stepped forward and said with a faint smile.
Although he was kidding, because he really didn't believe the Queen Mother of the West could be in this spell, he was still a little bit vigilant.
Such a large spell had been placed here. Maybe they would encounter some old monsters in it. Anyway, caution is the parent of safety!
He summoned the System in his mind, "System, open this spell, and prepare the King of Tough-Acting Fist who needs 50,000 Acting Tough Points in case of any danger!"
Ding! "This spell is in a state of disrepair after its long history. To open it will only cost 100 Acting Tough Points. Is the Host going to open it?"
"Yes!"
Xu Que stared at the spell with eyes squinted.
Instantly, mysterious forces gushed into the spell from his body.
Rumble!
The next moment, the entire spell trembled a bit. A gap appeared abruptly. A gust of ancient chilly wind gushed out from the gap violently. A rotten smell could be sensed in the air.
"What?" Xu Que frowned immediately.
He checked the entire spell with his Soul Strength but didn't find any trace of life in it. The spell was just lifeless.
"It seems the Good Fortune Jade Disk is responsive to this spell!" Jiang Hongyan said suddenly as she raised her hand. Then the round jade appeared in her palm. A faint yellow halo appeared on the crystal jade, which was surrounded by many flowing runes.
"It is guiding us!" Jiang Hongyan said, as she looked at Xu Que in surprise.
In this area, only she could sense and control this round jade, which was a Celestial Artifact. Therefore, only she could understand the jade's guidance.
Xu Que replied with a smile, "It seems this thing is really related to Mount Kunlun! Let's go inside and have a look!"
Then he stepped into the spell first.
Buttface shouted seriously, "Little brat, don't be rash! What if the Queen Mother of the West is really in it? When I was in the R Nation, I was told a snake monster with eight heads used to exist in this world many years ago. And its name was…the Serpent Oishi!
"Nonsense! Its name was the Serpent Orochi!" Xu Que turned around and punched Buttface's forehead with his fist.
However, this time Buttface didn't howl. On the contrary, he was staring at something behind Xu Que with wide eyes.
"What are you looking at? Why are you so terrified?" Xu Que asked dubiously.
Buttface was dumbfounded, "Be…behind you, holy crap, so many treasure items! Ah! There are also a lot of peaches here! Is this a peach garden?"
Howl! Buttface rushed into the spell after finishing his exclamation.
Xu Que, Jiang Hongyan, and Xu Feifei were surprised and turned around immediately.
They saw nothing in the spell except for an ordinary hill. Because it was isolated from the outside world, there was no snow and ice but a lake in this place. It was quite creepy that they couldn't find Buttface in such a small place!
"What? How could he disappear in such a short time?" Xu Que frowned slightly as he turned to Jiang Hongyan. However, he was stunned at this moment.
Not only had Buttface disappeared, now Jiang Hongyan and Xu Feifei who were standing together right near him also vanished.
"Damn! This is unacceptable!"
Xu Que looked around with wide eyes and started to search this area with his Soul Strength again.
He didn't find any life-forms in this area except for himself.
"Crap! Are you going to play illusions with me? Who did this? Step out!" Xu Que shouted angrily.
Drip!
At this time, he heard a clear sound of water from the lake in front of him as if a drop of water fell into the lake and created many ripples.
Xu Que frowned again as he looked at the lake.
Where did that water drop come from? Is it raining?
He couldn't help but look up. He was totally surprised by what he saw.
One moment ago, there had been nothing in this spell. Now, a fairylike woman in a white gauze dress was washing her hair, half-kneeling beside the lake.
Water was dripping down into the lake from her shiny black long hair.
"Amitabha, lady almsgiver, please don't mess with me!" Xu Que said immediately.
The woman in the white dress looked at Xu Que with her beautiful eyes. Then she said in a low voice with a gentle smile, "My lord, this place is isolated from the outside world. How did you enter this place?"
"Ah! Actually, I am the King of Hell. I know your life is about to end. So, I come here to reap your life!" Xu Que replied with a faint smile.
Snigger!
Hearing that, the woman in the white dress sniggered as well as she covered her mouth, "My lord, you are so humorous! The Messengers from Hell are responsible for reaping lives. How could the King of Hell do that?" Moreover…."
After saying that, the woman looked up and fixed her eyes on Xu Que as she said seductively, "It is said that the King of Hell is quite ugly. How could he be so handsome like you, my lord?"
"As you said, it is just hearsay. Also, I am here to talk about business with you. I have a Book of Death and Life in my hands. If you transfer money to me, I will cross out your name in it! What say you?" Xu Que said with a smile as he stepped into the spell.
The woman in the white dress was stunned a bit. Apparently, she didn't expect Xu Que would become a swindler in such a short time.
"OK, you are a cultivator and you are beautiful, so I won't punish you. You should remove this illusory spell immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me if my blade is ruthless!" Xu Que said as he took out a really big knife.
The woman in the white dress said with a cold smile, "Are you going to threaten me after breaking into my place?"
Whoosh!
After finishing her words, she became a plume of smoke and disappeared on the spot.
Xu Que squinted his eyes after her, as he was about to attack with a smile.
Boom!
A dull sound came from behind abruptly as if an avalanche had occurred.
Xu Que turned around and was surprised by what he saw.
A wriggling serpent came out from the stone wall and was staring at Xu Que ferociously as it kept sticking out its tongue.
"Holy crap, is this your real body? It turns out you are a female serpent!" Xu Que cursed, widening his eyes, "You are so ugly. Today I will kill this monster by enforcing justice on behalf of the Heavens!"
After saying that, Xu Que jumped up into the sky by stepping on lightning. The big knife in his hand had been turned into a sharp sword. Then he thrust the sword at the serpent directly.
Growl!
The big serpent roared suddenly, which even made the mountains around this area tremble.
Rumble!
Along with a big bang, the stone wall collapsed. Several large serpents appeared.
"What?" Xu Que was surprised. So, he shouted hurriedly, "Lady, which one is you? I can spare your life because you are beautiful!"
…
Chapter 943: I'm The Master Of Kunlun!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Howl! The snakes immediately erupted into furious howls, sticking their forked tongues out as they charged at Xu Que.
"Eh, what?" Xu Que was shocked. "That can't be right! Do you have heads but not a tail? Let me count, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5! Crap, eight snake heads?"
"Foolish human, I'm a Nine-Headed Snake!" The heads bellowed in unison.
Xu Que's eyes got wide. After all that trouble, there's a monster like this hidden here? Its cultivation stage was not too low either, around the fourth or fifth level of the Great Vehicle Stage.
"Nine-headed Snake, where's your ninth head?" Xu Que sneered and waved his hand. A black flame suddenly burst from his palm.
Boom!
A ravaging, fiery aura instantly consumed the arena.
The eight heads halted suddenly and looked warily at Xu Que, "You…what's with that flame?"
:Why the hell would you care about my flame? I'm the one asking questions here. Are you deaf or blind?" Xu Que roared and raised his hand, pretending that he was about to hurl the flame.
Shocked, the eight snake heads quickly answered, "Revered Immortal, I…my ninth head was severed when they sealed me back then!"
"How long ago was back then, and who did you say severed your head?" Xu Que glared.
"This…was about 8,000 or 9,000 years ago. I was asleep for too long and cannot recall how many years have passed. However, the one who sealed me and cut off my head was the master of this area!" The snake heads replied with respect.
Intelligent and quick-witted, it knew that the flames in Xu Que's hands were not something to be trifled with. It was so wary of the fire that it lost all desire to go up against Xu Que.
"Hmph, then where did they go? I thought that I had met a beautiful snake lady, but it was, in fact, a snake man! How could you be so disgusting as to transform into a woman? Can't you transform into anything else?" Xu Que got angrier as he scolded.
The eight snake heads cringed a little and answered with a trembling voice, "O, Revered Immortal, I…I've never transformed into a woman to deceive you! The one you saw just now was the Master of this area!"
"Eh?" Xu Que's expression was now aghast when he heard that. He stepped onto lightning and bolted forward.
Boom!
The next moment, the position where he had been standing earlier was blown up.
Shortly after, a white-clad woman appeared. Long, black hair flowed down her back as she looked at Xu Que. She chuckled softly. "That's weird. So many years have passed, and this realm could produce a young man of such cultivation caliber?"
"Hmph, how dare a demoness like you sneak an attack from behind? Aren't you embarrassed?" Xu Que scoffed, his sword pointing at the white-clad woman.
The white-clad lady sneered, "How dare you call me a demoness?"
"So what if I call you a demoness? Did you truly see me as a pushover?" Xu Que raised his wrists and balled his hand into a fist. He punched out with great force!
Bam!
The fist instantly distorted and hollowed the void. A huge, golden fist came into shape out of thin air. With crushing energy, it slammed down toward the white-clad lady! It was a King of Tough-Acting Fist worth 50,000 points; he used a sure-kill move from the get-go. It was evident that Xu Que had no intention of wasting his breath with the woman. Even if he could not kill her, he would need to injure her gravely.
"Hmm?" The white-clad woman flinched the moment she saw the golden fist. With a light tap of her toe, she floated off the surface. However, no matter how fast her moves were, she was unable to escape the coverage of the fist. The moment right after she swept up, the shadow of the fist caught her up and tore her apart with its overwhelming force. The woman disintegrated into a puff of white smoke and disappeared.
"Not dead yet?" Xu Que frowned.
He knew that because the System had not issued a reward notification. Therefore, he was very sure that he had not killed that lady with his Tough-Acting Fist. The woman's skills were too eerie and phantomlike. She could dissolve into a puff of white smoke every time and disappear without a sound nor trace, more powerful than using an Escape Emblem.
"Young man, which sect or faction do you hail from?" The woman's voice rang suddenly.
Xu Que turned around, only to see the lady appearing by the lake. Not only was she unscathed, but she also looked at Xu Que with a tender gaze.
"Ha, ha, I hail from the Exploding Heavens Faction!" Xu Que laughed pridefully, his fist pumping, ready for a few more strikes of the King of Tough-Acting Fist.
The white-clad woman sensed his plan. She smiled slightly, "Young man, stop attacking me. You have passed the trial. I will allow you to step into this area!"
"Ha, ha, why should I stop attacking just because you said so? Who do you think you are?" Xu Que smiled coldly as he stepped onto a lightning bolt and darted forward at high speed. Since she's so good at dodging, it's time to try some close-range combat!
The white-clad woman was unaffected. She shook her head, "I am but a Shadow Replica. You can't kill me!"
Bam!
Xu Que's fist landed the moment she finished her words. However, the moment it landed, the white-clad woman dissolved into a cloud of white smoke and drifted into the distance. She dodged the blow once again with ease.
"A Shadow Replica?" Xu Que frowned. If even a Shadow Replica was this strong, how powerful would the real deal be?
"Who in the world are you?" Xu Que asked in a low voice.
The white-clad woman smiled. "I am the master of this area, the Master of Kunlun!"
"The Master of Kunlun? You're the Queen Mother of the West?" Xu Que asked, confused.
The white-clad woman remained smiling as she shook her head, "The Queen Mother of the West was but a myth. Many years ago, I created this area and opened the door leading to the Road of Heavenly Attainment. Therefore, I am the master of this area. Anyone who reaches here would require my permission to enter. Those who defy this rule would be executed without mercy!"
"The Road of Heavenly Attainment?" asked Xu Que, slightly taken aback. How was it different from the Road of Heavenly Ascension?
"Young man. This place was sealed off for millions of years, but you are one who made it in and passed my trial. You are now qualified to enter the Road of Heavenly Attainment." The white-clad woman smiled.
Xu Que, however, darkened."So I passed the trial. What about my friends? Where have you taken them?"
The white-clad woman shook her head slightly. "Rest assured. So long as one of you passes the trial, I'll let all of you enter! However, before that, I have some questions for you."
When Xu Que heard that, he agreed at once, "All right! Since you're this beautiful, ask away!"
"Thank you!" The white-clad woman looked tenderly at Xu Que and smiled. She shifted her gaze toward the spell entrance and sighed, "While I am the master of this area, I am, after all, a mere Shadow Replica, seal-bound to guard the door. I am unable to leave for eternity. I want to ask if…."
Plop! A low thud could be head before she managed to finish. The white-clad lady stiffened, her eyes filled with astonishment and shock. She slowly closed her eyes and collapsed limply.
It was only then that a small golden man appeared behind her. The man with a long black rod in his hands was none other than the Little Gold Clone hidden within Xu Que's brows.
"Hmph, how naive! Did you genuinely believe that I wouldn't dare to hit you just because you're somewhat pretty? Trying to make a sneak attack on me? You're too inexperienced!" Xu Que sneered as he retook his Little Golden Clone. He then strolled toward the white-clad lady.
The eight-headed snake was beyond stunned. It could not believe its eyes and could feel nothing but horror in its heart. He…he could play it that way?
"What Master of Kunlun, what trial? Why don't you try me, huh? I'll strip you naked and throw you outside, freezing you to death!" Xu Que scoffed menacingly as he approached the white-clad woman.
The eight-headed snake lit up at once when he heard Xu Que. Its eight heads nodded all at once as he chirped excitedly, "That's awesome! Awesome!"

"Awesome, my foot! Where did a giant snake like you come from? Don't tell me that you're the Serpent Orochi from R Nation?" Xu Que turned around and glared at the eight-headed snake.
The eight-headed giant snake stopped for a second before shaking its eight heads, "No, I am the Nine-Headed Snake, or as some would call me, the Nine-Headed Berserk Dragon. I have been here ever since I lost a head. Maybe that's why the legends have gotten passed down wrong."
"You? The Nine-Headed Berserk Dragon? Hear this. My mount's an Ancient Magic Dragon!" Xu Que laughed coldly.
The eight-headed snake was shocked. An Ancient Magic Dragon as his mount? Was this fellow this powerful?
"I advise you to stay put and don't move. Otherwise, you might find yourself dropping a few more heads. Don't blame me if you find yourself looking like the kid with only three strands of hair in Wanderings of San Mao!" Xu Que chuckled as he lightly tapped the blade of the sword in his hand.
Thunk!
The eight-headed snake trembled with the metallic vibrato. It quickly replied, "Rest assured, Revered Immortal. I will not move an inch!"
Xu Que finally nodded his head. He put on a pompous act and spoke like an old but arrogant man, "Eh, not too bad of a performance. Now tell me where my friends are and let them out now."
"Revered Immortal, this…I'm not sure either! Such a peculiar place this is, and I was not the one who laid down this illusory spell. Everything was under the control of that Master!" said the eight-headed snake who seemed to be in a fix. It stared wistfully at the white-clad lady lying on the ground.
"You mean her? She controls nothing! I'm telling you that I'm now the one in charge!" Xu Que snorted and waved his hand. An overwhelming Taoist Connotation gushed out of his hands and suddenly attacked the white-clad woman.
Swoosh!
The next moment, the Taoist Connotation transformed into shackles and tied the white-clad woman up. Those shackles restricted the circulation of True Core Strength within her.
Tsk! The eight-headed snake stuck out its forked tongue and drew a sharp intake of breath, shocked, "Revered Immortal, I didn't know that you liked this sort of bondage!"
"Bondage, your ass! Why do you seem so weird? One look and I know you're an indecent snake. Are you sure that you're not from the R Nation?" Xu Que questioned. ( Boxno vel. co m )
The eight-headed snake quickly replied, "Revered Immortal, I'm genuinely not from the R Nation! My previous territory was on an island called the Ying Continent. It was also called Fuso!"
"Don't play word games with me! That's freaking R Nation!" shouted an angry Xu Que.
The name of Ancient R Nation was called Dongying. According to legend, it was given the name Fuso as people had mistakenly believed that the Sun Tree grew on that island. Others told the story of the R Nation being the Immortal Island of Penglai, although it remained a rumor.
"Ah? My Fuso became the R Nation? Who…who changed its name? How dare they!" The furious eight-headed snake was stunned.
Xu Que looked at him with no words, then shook his head. It seems like this fellow was trapped for too long. It knew nothing about the outside world.
"Come on, let's talk about the serious stuff! What is the background of this woman, and where is her real body? If I'm not wrong, this place should be an ancient site of a Sect. Where have the people gone?" Xu Que walked toward the eight-headed snake and asked while patting its heads.
The eight-headed snake shivered. "Revered Immortal, please, you have to uphold justice for me! This place once belonged to the Kunlun Celestial Sect, and that woman was the Master of Kunlun, in charge of the entire sect. An Elder of Kunlun ambushed me and made me the Mountain Guardian Beast. As tough-minded as I am, it's only natural that I fought back and defied him till the end! And so he locked me up ever since until something big happened."
"Tell me about it." Xu Que raised his eyebrows. He guessed that the snake might reveal the reason for the mass migration of sects back then.
However, the eight-headed snake merely shook its head and answered, "I don't know what happened either. The only thing I know was that the Master of this area opened the gate to the so-called Road of Heavenly Attainment. Many sects uprooted themselves and migrated there. However, right before they left, the Master of Kunlun laid down a spell to seal this place, leaving nothing but a Shadow Replica to guard the gate. They promised to release me after 5 million years, but now, only 1million darned years have passed."
"…." Xu Que frowned as he listened. He had wanted to gather some information from the snake, but that fellow was unexpectedly ignorant about what had happened. However, there was still one part that caught Xu Que's attention.
The Master of Kunlun opened a gate toward the Road of Heavenly Attainment. In other words….
"Could the Void Interface Point be found in Kunlun Mountain" Xu Que's eyes lit up as he looked around. The white-clad woman lying on the floor's eyes snapped open. Surprised, she examined the Taoist Connotation that bound her before raising her head to glare at Xu Que angry and horrified, "Bastard! You attacked me from behind!"
" Don't call me that so quickly." Xu Que teased.
Deep down, however, he was very shocked. This black rod of his came straight from the System inventory. Even Buttface went out cold for days when he got hit, but this woman woke up so quickly after suffering a blow. Most important, she's just a Shadow Replica! How powerful would the real her be?
"Who are you exactly?" The white-clad woman and pressed Xu Que for an answer. Her expression was icy, and it was evident that she was furious.
Xu Que continued to scan his surroundings while smiling mildly at that woman, "Who am I? I'm afraid that you're not yet qualified to know! The only thing I can disclose is that the moment I was born, I could stand right away. I pointed one finger at the sky and another finger at the ground, shouting 'I alone am honored in heaven and on earth!' As for the rest, feel free to make a guess."
The white-clad woman was stunned at Xu Que"s words.He could stand up straight the moment he was born, pointing one finger at the sky and another finger at the ground while shouting 'I alone am honored in heaven and on earth'?
Was he the reincarnation of some Supreme Existence?
"The Revered Immortal is awesome!" Screamed the snake all of a sudden.
What the hell?
Xu Que jumped in surprise and glared at the snake, "What the heck was that? Weren't you imprisoned for tens of thousands of years? Where did you learn the word awesome?"
The eight-headed snake smiled shyly, "A group of mortals once traveled to somewhere nearby. When one of them, a good-looking guy, reached the mountain peak, the group behind him began to yell that 'The Lord of Commoners is awesome!' So I reckoned that 'awesome' must be some sort of praise!"
"You're quite clever, aren't you? Better than Buttface!" Xu Que's eyes lit up and he made a thoughtful smile. Then he turned to the white-clad woman and shook his head, "The Master of Kunlun, eh? From now on, we, the Exploding Heavens Faction, will take over as owners of this area! I'll give you three breaths worth of time. Return my friends immediately or else I'll strip you naked and throw you out!"
"You're throwing me out?" The white-clad woman ignored Xu Que's threat to strip her. Instead, she thought that his last sentence was ridiculous. She shook her head, sarcastically, "This place was born out of my illusory spell. I am the spell, and the spell is I. How could you possibly throw me out? Let me put it this way. If you can bring me out of the formation, I would gladly let you strip me naked."
"Yo-ho? It seems like you genuinely believe that I won't be able to break your spell?" Xu Que asked amusedly.
While the illusory spell is potent and the System could not help him due to level restrictions, he has a lot of ways to break the spell.
"You…you have a way?" asked the surprised woman, who then quickly shook her head. "Impossible. This spell formation was laid down by my true body. No one except for the Master of Kunlun could break this spell. Why don't you answer my question instead? If you promise to answer earnestly, I would consider releasing your friends."
Xu Que smirked. "What do you want to know?"
"Who are you, and where are you from? Answer me, truthfully, or I will never open the illusory spell."
"So what if I tell you the truth? One true name I'd never change, behold the Exploding Heavens Faction's Sun Honglei! Pretty Sun is my nickname, though all prefer to call me Hunk Leilei!" Xu Que sneered, then suddenly shot his gaze at the white-clad woman. He bellowed, "Look into my eyes!"
The moment Xu Que's voice fell, strands of golden flame emerged from his eyes and engulfed his eyeballs, overflowing with energy.
The white-clad woman felt like someone had suddenly gripped her soul; a loud thud could be felt in her mind, and she stood rooted to the ground, unable to tear her gaze away from the golden flames in Xu Que's eyes. In that instant, it was as if someone had thrown her into an all-engulfing sea of fire!
Chapter 945: You Can't!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Look into my eyes!" Xu Que yelled again, and the golden brilliance in his eyes flared. It was as if an endless sea of golden flames engulfed the entirety of the white-clad woman, unstoppable and all-devouring. In the end, the white-clad woman froze in place with no life in her eyes.
"It's an illusion…no, an Orbs Spell!" The eight-headed snake shivered in fear, drenched in cold sweat. It was lucky that it did not offend this demon, it thought.
The Orbs Spell has existed since ancient times. It is a mysterious and powerful spell that could drag a person into an imaginary realm without laying down any formation, so long as the caster had a strong enough True Core Strength and Taoist Connotation.
Xu Que became the successor of the Pupils of the Fire Eyes when he left the Five Elements Mountain. He couldn't practice it back then, but he had coincidentally obtained a rune under Tai Shan. The rune completed the legacy and allowed Xu Que to inherit one of the Five Elements Heavenly Pupils—the Pupils of the Fire Eyes—without the restraints on his Taoist Connotation. With a flicker of his mind, he could immediately construct an illusory realm of fire and pull anyone into it.
Right now, while the white-clad woman seemed unharmed standing where she was, her consciousness was actually in the midst of an unforgiving sea of flames. The golden fire shone like liquid gold, and the glare of the flames was more piercing than the sun's rays. No one could stare at it directly. The body formed from the white-clad woman's consciousness stood upright amid the sea of fire. All of her clothes were burned off the moment she entered the realm, and her soul was being punished and destroyed by the flames. It was as if someone had captured her soul and put her through a sacrificial refinement trial.
"Ah…!" She screamed in agony. Her long hair was tied into a ponytail as she stood in the flames like a female demoness sealed into suffering. However, she was unable to break free. The shackles formed from Xu Que's Taoist Connotation imprisoned not only her True Core Strength but also her very soul. There was nowhere to run.
Boom! ( Boxno vel. co m )
Suddenly, she heard a low thud from the inside. To her, it was like heavenly thunder had broken out within her body. The white-clad woman, however, felt a relaxing wave of soothing bliss wash over all of her. Her body lightened at once. It was as if someone had lifted a heavy burden off her shoulders.
"This is…." Her heart throbbed vigorously as astonishment and disbelief filled her face.
…..
At the same time, outside the illusory realm, at the peak of Kunlun Mountain, the body of the white-clad woman slightly swayed as blood spilled from the corners of her mouth. Stone walls began to dissolve gradually. The cave born out of the illusory spell is slowly dissipating. The formation is falling apart.
"The formation is about to be gone?" The astounded eight-headed snake was shocked. Exhilaration filled its eyes. Being suppressed for a little more than 10,000 year had made him weak with loneliness and solitude. Although asleep for most of the time, how could it possibly survive the remaining 4.9 million years? Now that the spell was about to disintegrate, it meant that it was about to be free.
"Breaking an illusory spell with another illusory spell—I am the only one in the whole world that could think of such a genius idea!" Xu Que laughed.
The white-clad woman had mentioned that the illusory spell was built based on herself, a Shadow Replica. Therefore, Xu Que made use of the Orbs Spell and pulled her into the Illusory Spell of Flames. It equated to pulling the entire illusory spell into his own illusory spell, forcefully destroying it from within. What he was doing was just being the big fish that swallowed a smaller fish. It was either he ruptured his stomach and dies or he digests the other party whole.
However, forXu Que, he didn't need to worry about dying from overeating. The power of the Orbs Spell was so unimaginably vast that breaking an old illusory spell was a piece of cake.
Boom!
At last, the entire spell crashed down as all of the stone walls fell away like melted snow. Everything reverted back to their original appearances. The protruding mountain peak was still the same mountain peak; however, the ruins of ancient buildings could now be seen. They stretched for miles and miles, suggesting just how big the Kunlun Celestial Sect once was.
"All hail the Revered Immortal!" The eight-headed snake let out a long wail as tears rolled down its cheeks. How could it not be? After being suppressed for 10,000 years, it has finally gotten rid of the seal and regained its freedom.
"Argh, who? Who did this? Where's my Flat Peach?' Buttface suddenly appeared. He held a pawful of snow that he had nibbled more than halfway through. Traces of snow could be found on the corners of his mouth, suggesting that he had taken snow as a flat peach after falling for the illusory spell. Now that the spell had vanished, Buttface was furious as he thought that someone had stolen his flat peach. Thundering with anger, he looked all around with raging eyes, as if trying to stare the perpetrator to death.
Across from Buttface, Xu Feifei sat on the ground as Jiang Hongyan protected her with the Good Fortune Jade Disk. It resisted the illusory realm and ensured the safety of both of them. Now that the spell was demolished, they could finally see Buttface and Xu Que again. They both heaved sighs of relief and quickly ran in their direction.
"What's this all about?" Jiang Hongyan asked.
Xu Que smiled and shook his head. "It was nothing. We just got trapped in an illusory spell. A blessing in disguise, though! We obtained a nine-headed snake with one head severed. We could bring it back and make it into our Mountain Guardian Beast!"
A snake?
Jiang Hongyan and the others all paused at Xu Que's words, including Buttface. They all turned toward the eight-headed snake. The eight-headed snake was stunned too. It looked at Xu Que, flustered, almost hoping that it had heard him wrong. "O…O Revered Immortal, p…please don't do that! I finally broke free of the seal. Why would you also want to capture me and make me your Mountain Guardian Beast? I know not a darn thing about how to guard a mountain!"
"Why are you so uptight? I'm doing this for your own good! What future do you have staying here? Come with me to the World of Cultivation. Over there, there is an abundance of Spiritual Qi. Cultivate for a couple of years, and you will transform into a nine-headed dragon and step into the Celestial Stage! By then, the meat quality would be fresh, bouncy, and juicy, one bite and the whole mouth would be filled with…cough, cough, don't misunderstand. I'm not talking about you!"
Xu Que laughed when he saw the eight-headed snake sweating buckets of cold sweat out of sheer terror. Helplessness filled the face of the snake as it whimpered, "Revered Immortal…I…I don't wanna go…."
"You're not going? Sigh. "All right then. I had wanted to give you a gift of enlightenment, seeing that you're quite clever. Since it's not what you wanted, I won't force you to accept it." Xu Que waved his hand.
The eight-headed snake immediately heaved a sigh of relief. It replied gratefully, "Thank you, Revered Immortal, for your kindness!"
"It's okay! No need to be this polite!" Xu Que waved his hand again and looked toward Buttface. He shouted, "Buttface, Buttface, why are you just standing there, stunned? Come see your relative! Don't be shy! Come over quick and bring the pot. We will have snake stew tonight!"
"Are you serious? Snake stew sounds delicious!" Buttface's eyes immediately lit up with glee and surprise. When it turned to the eight-headed snake, it scanned it from head to toe as if contemplating about how he should enjoy a plate of delicacy, and he could not help but drool. The eight-headed snake was, however, scared out of its wits. Once the tyrant of Earth, it once had a majestic and awe-inspiring existence. Who would have thought that when it re-entered the world 10,000 years later, he would become food for others!
Snake stew!
Snake your ass!
"Revered Immortal, please, quit playing with me. I will go! I will just go to the World of Cultivation, all right?" cried the snake, looking devastated.
"Huh? Do you mean you changed your mind? Don't push yourself, the thing I hate most in the world is to force people into doing things! If you really don't wish to go, I won't stop you!" Xu Que said caringly.
The eight-headed snake answered determinedly, "It is not forced, not forced at all!"
"Umph, okay then! Buttface, put away the pot. We will be drinking northwest wind tonight instead!"
"Northwest wind? Don't do that to me! I wanna eat snake stew, snake stew!" Buttface was hurt. He dropped to the ground and began to rub its body on the ground furiously, throwing a tantrum like a very spoiled child.
Bam!
Without a word, Xu Que went up and kicked Buttface, who quieted down at once.
Swoosh!
Almost at the same time, a white silhouette walked down slowly from the mountaintop. It was the white-clad woman, the Shadow Replica of the Master of Kunlun. With hair all the way to her waist, her ethereal face seemed pale and drained of blood. However, she could hardly contain the happiness on her face.
Her True Core Strength was still locked by Xu Que's Taoist Connotation, and so she could only walk down toward them. She looked toward Xu Que and said, "Thank you, young master! I could never repay you for your great benevolence. If you think that I am still of some worth, I am willing to be your servant for ten years! I'm entirely yours for these ten years!"
"You can't!" Xu Feifei and Buttface immediately exclaimed in unison.
Chapter 946: Plea!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"What?"
Xu Que opened his eyes very wide.
No?
Why not?
Why do you say no to this?
This beautiful girl decided to follow me because of my handsome face. Why can't she serve me?
Also, Xu Feifei could say no to this. Why does Buttface mess with me? It's none of your business!
Xu Que stared at Buttface.
( Boxno vel. co m ) Buttface said proudly, "As the deputy sect leader of the Exploding Heavens Faction, I should also enjoy this treatment. She shall also serve me!"
"Nonsense! Nobody acknowledges your position as the deputy sect leader!" Xu Que tried to punch Buttface.
Buttface escaped and shouted accusingly, Howl! "Little brat, you are too greedy! You don't agree to share her services because you have designs on her!"
Puff! "I am blaming your outdated sense of hierarchy! We are in a modern society. How dare you ask her to be your maidservant!"
Xu Que scolded seriously, "Look at her, such a beautiful girl has been trapped in this spell for 10,000 years. Now, she has just been delivered from oppression. Do you really have the heart to treat her as a maidservant? How could you be so ruthless, relentless, and unreasonable?"
"Holy crap! I am not ruthless, relentless, and unreasonable at all! She said she would serve as a maidservant!"
"How could you say you are not ruthless, relentless, and unreasonable?" Xu Que asked.
"Humph! No matter how ruthless, relentless, and unreasonable I am, I couldn��t be more ruthless, relentless, and unreasonable than you!"
"What? Am I more ruthless than you? Am I more relentless than you? Am I more unreasonable than you? You must be kidding! You are a dog who is the most ruthless, relentless, and unreasonable thing I've ever met!"
Puff! "I could never be more ruthless, relentless, and unreasonable than you!"
The two of them continued to attack each other verbally.
Jiang Hongyan, who had already gotten used to their antics, stood beside them calmly with a faint smile.
Xu Feifei was shocked. She knew Xu Que's style. However, she didn't expect a dog could also be so shameless.
At this time, Xu Que said with a cold smile, "Heh-heh! Good! Since you said I am ruthless, relentless, and unreasonable, let me show you my ruthless, relentless, and unreasonable actions! Just wait!"
Then he turned to the Eight-headed Serpent and shouted loudly, "Eight-headed Serpent, bring me a pot. I want to enjoy dog meat hotpot tonight!"
"Are you going to eat dog meat?" The Eight-headed Serpent was stunned. Then, he said perplexedly after looking at Buttface, "No, my lord! I've met a lot of hikers in the mountains. All of them advocate animal protection. And dogs are good friends of human beings!"
"Damn! Screw you!" Buttface was annoyed immediately. He started to bark at the Eight-headed Serpent like an angry dog, "I am a wolf! Crap! I either kill this snake today or I will change my family name!"
"Ah?" The Eight-headed Serpent was puzzled by Buttface's reply. He turned to Xu Que and said hurriedly, "My lord, is it too late for me to bring the pot for you?"
Growl! Buttface roared majestically as he dashed toward the Eight-headed Serpent, "Just die! Eat my Invincible Mustard Palm!"
Swish!
Buttface waved his paw abruptly. Then a pile of green mustard was thrown out toward the Eight-headed Serpent. After that, he turned around and escaped directly. This was his signature move, which was so sordid.
The Eight-headed Serpent was still in a daze. The mustard was as nothing in front of his eight giant heads. All the mustard landed on the neck of one of the eight heads and didn't cause any damage.
The scene was quite embarrassing.
"What? How could this be?" Buttface, who was standing at a distance, said in surprise. "When I ate this, I was almost killed by it. How could you be immune to it?"
The Eight-headed Serpent said in puzzlement, "I…I didn't eat it! It landed on my neck!"
Xu Que covered his forehead with his hand, and said, "Buttface, could you stop fooling around? I could let you go today. But you shall never say you are from the Exploding Heavens Faction in the future, OK?"
"Crap!" Buttface waved his paw angrily. "Forget it! Since the Heavens don't want me to kill this snake today, I will let it go temporarily!"
…
Xu Que shook his head and ignored Buttface. Then he turned to the woman in the white dress and said, "You don't need to serve me. It's not who I am! If you really want to thank me, just tell me what has happened in this place in the past."
"My lord, I…" The woman in white dress was perplexed.
"Never mind. You don't have to tell me!" Xu Que said. Actually, he was not all that interested in the things that had happened in this spell all those years ago. Anyway, he was about to leave Earth as long as he could find a Void Interface Point.
The woman in the white dress explained hurriedly, "My lord, it's not like what you think. Those memories have been sealed by my real body. The only memory I have now is to guard this place!"
"OK, you can continue your duty. I have to leave now and I could come back at any time. Please don't make trouble in the outside world, or you will have to face some consequences!" After saying that, Xu Que was about to step into the ruins of the celestial sect in Mount Kunlun.
The woman in the white dress said quickly, "Wait, my lord, I have a request. Could you take me with you? The Illusory Spell has disappeared. If I stay here, I will perish soon!"
"Oh?" Xu Que stopped as if an idea had occurred to him. Then he said thoughtfully, "Won't you perish if we take you to the World of Cultivators?"
"No, I…I want to enter the Good Fortune Jade Disk of that lady. I could only survive in this way. And I could even remold my body and get out of this control of my real body!" The woman in the white dress said as she looked at Jiang Hongyan with a plea in her eyes.
Xu Que smiled for he had figured out something was wrong from the very beginning. This woman said she would show her gratitude by serving him for ten years, which was quite weird. Now he knew her real purpose was to get close to them and get approval from Jiang Hongyan so that she could enter the Good Fortune Jade Disk and remold her body!
"Now the Illusory Spell has disappeared. Although I've regained freedom, I won't last long in this world! I am willing to open my soul. The lady could place a Soul Seed in my soul. In this way, I could never do anything which is harmful to you!" The woman in the white dress entreated.
She was a part of the Illusory Spell. If the Illusory Spell disappeared, she wouldn't survive. That was also the reason why Xu Que had asked her to stay on Earth.
However, she recognized the Good Fortune Jade Disk in Jiang Hongyan's hand. She knew it was her hope to survive and even get out of control of her real body.
Chapter 947: What Are You Doing?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"That won't be necessary. You can remold your body in the jade disk!" At this time, Jiang Hongyan suddenly spoke with a smile. It seemed she wasn't worried that this woman in the white dress would do something which was harmful to them.
"No!" Xu Que rejected this idea and shook his head. "Even if you want to help her, you should place the Soul Seed in her soul!"
Jiang Hongyan didn't want to place the Soul Seed because she was confident that the woman in the white dress was not able to influence her, and she didn't want to control someone in this way.
Xu Que, who had wandered through the World of Cultivators for so many years, knew clearly the meaning of "never show the bottom of your purse". He wouldn't allow a replica of the owner of Mount Kunlun to enter the Celestial Artifact that was related to the fate of Jiang Hongyan.
"My lord, I am willing to do this to show my sincerity!" The woman in the white dress turned to Xu Que decisively. The area between her eyebrows was quite bright, which meant she had opened her soul without hesitation.
Without any hesitation, Xu Que placed a Soul Seed that contained his Taoist Connotation into her soul.
Whoosh!
When the Soul Seed was placed in her soul, the light between her eyebrows of the woman in the white dress dimmed. Then she said gratefully, "Thank you for your kind help, my lord!"
"That won't be necessary. You are quite powerful. I will spare your life today, and you might be able to help me in the future!" Xu Que said, waving his hand.
After placing the Soul Seed into her soul, Xu Que could know her memories clearly. The woman didn't lie to him. And he also got the whereabouts of the Void Interface Point, which saved a lot of time for him.
However, he found a powerful seal in the woman's soul, which locked up most of her memories. More important, this seal was quite extraordinary. Even when Xu Que tried to impact it with his Soul Seed, the seal was still unbreakable. He had to give up temporarily. He decided to get a solution from the System when they went back to the World of Cultivators.
"It's OK now!" Xu Que looked at Jiang Hongyan.
Jiang Hongyan nodded her head with a faint smile. Then she waved her hand and the Good Fortune Jade Disk appeared in front of her.
"Thank you, my lady!" The woman in the white dress said gratefully. Then she turned herself into a cloud of smoke, which flew into the jade disk.
"OK, let's prepare to leave!" Xu Que said as he looked at the ruins in front of him. According to the memory of the woman in the white dress, the Void Interface Point was just under those ruins.
If they used the Space-Breaking Spell at this point, they could go back to the World of Cultivators.
"Oh, right, Eight-headed Serpent, you should change your appearance!" Xu Que turned to the Eight-headed Serpent suddenly.
"Ah?" The Eight-headed Serpent was stunned a bit. Then he said with a wry smile, "My lord, I…haven't acquired any magic arts of transformation!"
"The transformation arts are useless. You have eight heads and your body is too big. This would be out of the protection range of the Space-Breaking Spell. You need to hide yourself in a small thing!" Xu Que said.
All his Beast Soul Bags were full of Heaven-Devouring Demonic Mosquitoes. He didn't have additional space for the Eight-headed Serpent. He had to find a solution now or he couldn't take this big snake to the World of Cultivators.
After pondering it for a while, Xu Que summoned the System and entered the System store.
"System, I want to purchase a hollow pet without soul!" Xu Que murmured.
After the auto-filtering, the System provided a lot of animals to Xu Que for his selection.
Xu Que fixed his eyes on the cheapest option – a toy poodle!
"OK, I will choose this one, and its name will be Teddy Heavenscrewer!" Xu Que smiled. Then he purchased the toy poodle with just 1 Acting Tough Point.
Seeing that, people in the area were shocked. They didn't expect Xu Que could create a toy poodle just by waving his hand.
The Eight-headed Serpent was dumbfounded. He said in surprise, "My…lord, do you really want me to enter its body? It…is too small!"
"Heh-heh, is it too small for you? Although its body is small, it harbors the ambition to destroy the Heavens and the Earth! Come on, if you don't want to become snake soup, just go into its body!" Xu Que said with a smile.
"OK…OK!" The Eight-headed Serpent was unwilling. However, he had to obey Xu Que's order. Therefore, he turned himself into a strand of light and dashed into the toy poodle.
Whoosh!
The next moment, the toy poodle stood up and looked around with his big eyes. When he saw Xu Que, he said, "My lord, I've controlled its body!"
"Great! Come here, Buttface, he will stand on your back to save space for us. I'm afraid the protection power of the Space-Breaking Spell is not big enough!" Xu Que said.
Buttface, who didn't like this arrangement at all, said, "Damn! Why do you want him to stand on my back? No way! Why couldn't I stand on his back?"
"It is impossible for you to stand on his back! You know you are much bigger than him!" Xu Que said, rolling his eyes.
He made this arrangement for safety reasons. After all, this time they would go together with Xu Feifei. If the protection range of the Space-Breaking Spell was not big enough, the tearing force of the Void would tear them into pieces.
"I don't care! I will never allow him to stand on my back for this is a big no-no for me!" Buttface rejected the idea resolutely.
If the toy poodle stood on his back, he would become the personal mount of the toy poodle, which would disgrace him!
"What the hell? You can think about it from another angle! He could stand on your back and do massage for you! Or you could ask him to open his soul, so that you could place your Soul Seed in. When we reach the World of Cultivators, you could ask him to restore his real body. And he will become your personal mount, which will shock numerous people!" Xu Que attempted to persuade him.
Hearing that, Buttface was tempted. Especially when he knew he could ride an Eight-headed Serpent in the World of Cultivators, he lit up his eyes excitedly. "OK! I will accept it temporarily. However, he must do massage for me on my back!" Buttface said.
The Eight-headed Serpent, which had entered the body of the toy poodle, couldn't say no at this time. He knew his current status clearly. Even the replica of the owner of Mount Kunlun had to accept a Soul Seed. It was impossible for him to avoid this!
As for the one who would place a Soul Seed into his soul, he didn't care at all. Anyway, the result would be the same.
"Come on, little toy poodle, open your soul and I will place a Soul Seed in it!" Buttface walked up to the toy poodle and said proudly.
The Eight-headed Serpent could do nothing but agree. Then he opened the soul between his eyebrows.
"Heh-heh, here I come!" Buttface placed a Soul Seed in with a strange smile. A moment later, the area between the toy poodle's eyebrows dimmed.
Buttface opened his eyes and said, patting his head overbearingly, "Come here and do it by yourself!"
The Eight-headed Serpent twitched his lips and he jumped on Buttface's head. After that, he started to do massage for Buttface with his little paws.
Xu Que nodded his head satisfactorily and said with a smile, "Good, just keep this formation. Let's go to the Void Interface Point first!" Then he stepped into the building ruins.
At this time, the Eight-headed Serpent felt something weird. When he entered the body of the toy poodle, he felt he couldn't control it completely and its lower body always wanted to do something recklessly.
"What happened?" The Eight-headed Serpent said in surprise.
"What's wrong? What are you talking about? Don't you like doing massage for me? Damn! I didn't bring my hair lotion here, or I would ask you to wash my hair!" Buttface shouted immediately.
"No…nothing!" The Eight-headed Serpent replied hurriedly. However, he was more and more shocked in his mind. Unconsciously, the toy poodle had started to move its body on Buttface's head. Its little body kept moving vertically and its movement was becoming faster and faster.
Howl! "What are you doing? What are you using to poke my head?" Buttface asked immediately.
The Eight-headed Serpent replied hurriedly, "No…nothing, I am trying to make some hair lotion for you!"

Two dogs of very different sizes set off in such a weird way.
Buttface was enjoying the massage. The toy poodle kept twitching its body on Buttface's head.
"Good!"
"Nicely done!"
"Yes, yes, yes, that's the spot!"
"It's so comfortable!"
( Boxno vel. co m ) Howl! "Harder! You are feeble because you are hungry, right?"
Buttface shouted all the way.
Xu Que, who couldn't watch anymore, laughed wildly in his heart. However, his expression was still quite calm. People with discerning eyes knew what this toy poodle was doing. Only stupid Buttface thought the toy poodle was doing massage for him.
Boom!
At last, Xu Que arrived at the building ruins of the celestial sect in Mount Kunlun. He smashed several rocks with his fist and found the secret tunnel that led to an underground area. This place, which had been abandoned for over 10,000 years, was quite shabby.
Many restrictive spells and spell Arrays were not functional at all. The runes had almost been worn down by the wear and tear and weather.
Xu Que and his teammates walked along the tunnel safely without encountering any danger. At last, they stopped in front of a giant bronze door at the end of the secret tunnel.
"Holy crap! I didn't expect such a big door could be hidden here!" Buttface shouted.
The door had two door parts. The height of the door was about 100 yards and the width was dozens of yards. It was so big that it was almost as magnificent as the tall buildings in the outside world.
A lot of vivid patterns were carved into the door, including many divine and ferocious beasts like dragons, phoenixes, and toads.
"Interesting! This is really a Void Interface Point, which is even bigger than the one in the Heavenly Human Tribe's Holy Ground!" Xu Que said in a low voice as he squinted his eyes.
According to his feelings as well as the detection of the System, he was sure this was a Void Interface Point. It was so big that it was almost ten times bigger than the one in the Holy Ground of the Heavenly Human Tribe. It was hard to imagine that such a place could exist on Earth. If the door was opened from the other side, various creatures might gush into this world.
"There is still a long road ahead!" Xu Que exclaimed, by shaking his head. He was anticipating the way in front of him.
"Right! Right!"
Buttface also started to exclaim, imitating Xu Que. Then he started to sing affectionately, "Little by little, the feelings were forgotten! Little by little, I was ignored! How could you have the heart to see my haggard face…."
Bang!
Xu Que slapped Buttface directly.
"Why do you wail like a ghost? Do you really think you are Jacky Cheung? As someone who is tone deaf, how dare you sing love songs?"
Howl! "I've just learned this song! Why can't I sing it?" Buttface asked in a recalcitrant manner.
Xu Que rolled his eyes, "Just stop it! Just get yourself prepared. We are going to leave here!"
After saying that, he summoned the System and was about to leave with the Space-Breaking Spell.
"Wait!" At this time, Xu Feifei said nervously, "Brother, will we just leave like this?"
"Sure! What? Aren't you willing to leave? Don't worry, we will come back in the future!" Xu Que said with a smile as he nodded his head. He could understand Xu Feifei's feelings.
He was eager to go back. But for Xu Feifei, it was different. After all, she had lived on Earth for so long a time. This was the first time for her to go to the World of Cultivators, which was even more distant than the Moon. She would definitely be uneasy and unwilling to leave.
"Oh, when…could we come back?" Xu Feifei said.
Xu Que was stunned a bit and said with a wry smile, "I don't know. Maybe five years, ten years, or even 100 years!"
"100 years?" Xu Feifei eyes opened wide immediately.
"Right! 100 years are long for life on Earth. However, in the World of Cultivators, it is just a blink of an eye. Many cultivators have lived for several thousand years. Even I also have a life expectancy of over 10,000 years!" Xu Que said with a smile.
At the very beginning, he could only live several hundred years. After absorbing the life span of cultivators of the Heavenly Human Tribe, he had become the god of longevity.
"Everything will be changed after 100 years. When we come back, the Earth will be so strange to us!" Xu Feifei, who didn't want to leave in this way, looked up and said, "Brother, I…want to meet my friends for the last time and say goodbye to them!"
"Hmm, no problem! Actually, you reminded me that I should also say goodbye to Cai and the rest of my friends!" Xu Que touched his jaw as he nodded his head. This time his friends like Cai and Zeng Darong had helped him a lot. Since he was about to leave, he should say goodbye to them officially.
"Hongyan, could you take Feifei to meet her friends? I will have dinner with my friends like Cai. Let's meet here tomorrow!" Xu Que made up his mind immediately.
Buttface shouted immediately, Howl! "No, I also want to go!"
"Do you also have friends?" Xu Que asked dubiously.
"Crap! Why can't I have friends? When I ruled the R Nation, I had a lot of brothers and sisters and countless female wolves who adored me. If they queue up, the line could circle the Earth ten times!" Buttface said proudly.
Puff! Xu Que laughed immediately. He said, shaking his head, "OK, you can go if you want to. But you should come back to this place tomorrow, or I will catch you personally and you will be beaten up ten times!"
"Crap,little brat, don't cross the line!" Buttface was annoyed. He said angrily, "What about five times?"
"No, this is non-negotiable!" Xu Que waved his hand and said as he looked at Xu Feifei and Jiang Hongyan with a smile, "Just go and say goodbye to your friends. After that, we will leave here!"
"OK!" Xu Feifei nodded her head.
Then, when they reached the ground surface, all of them jumped up into the sky and dashed toward different directions.
Most of Xu Feifei's friends were living in foreign countries. Therefore, she went to the M Nation with Jiang Hongyan first.
Only a few people could be treated as friends by Xu Que, including Cai, Zeng Darong, and several others. Therefore, he called Zeng Darong directly and asked them to have dinner with him in Linshen City. After all, Linshen City was the place where Xu Que grew up. He still had some feelings and emotions about it.
Whoosh!
He jumped into the sky and dashed toward his destination stepping on lightning. In a short while, he had reached Linshen City from Mount Kunlun.
"Holy crap! It's Xu Que!"
"Brother Que is back!"
"Come on, let's welcome Brother Que!"
Xu Que's appearance attracted many onlookers and caused an uproar in the city. Now, Xu Que was more famous than all other celebrities, even those big shots in the government.
However, he didn't stop but said with an aloof smile, "Guys, I am here to have dinner with my friends! Please don't bother us!" After saying that, he stepped into the restaurant.
Cai knew Xu Que was coming, so he booked the entire restaurant. Now the foods and wine had been prepared. He was waiting for Xu Que alone in the restaurant. When he heard the noise in the street, he knew Xu Que had arrived. So he ran to the entrance to meet Xu Que.
"Xu! Holy crap! Little brat, you are so famous now. If you make a movie, the box office will definitely rank it number 1 in the world!" Cai laughed when he saw Xu Que.
Xu Que waved his hand, "If these things hadn't happened, I would absolutely become a movie maker! But it is not necessary now!"
If the Acting Tough Points he could earn on Earth didn't reach the upper limit, he would definitely make a movie to earn more Acting Tough Points. Now, it was unnecessary apparently.
"OK, OK, I know you are a big shot who is quite busy! Come on, let's drink. Later, someone else will also come here!" Cai said with a wicked smile.
"Someone else? I remember I only invited you, Zeng Darong, Wang Jin, and Su Xiaoliang!" Xu Que said with a smile.
Cai shook his head, "Why do you act dumb? We don't know when you will come back this time. I needed to tell your ex-girlfriend!"
"Ex-girlfriend?" Xu Que was surprised. Then he said with a wry smile, "You mean Lin Yuxi?"
"Of course! Don't tell me you have more than one ex-girlfriend!" Cai rolled his eyes. "I knew you've broken up. But I think you should say goodbye to her! By the way, she complained to me that she requested to add you as her friend in WeChat after getting a new mobile phone number. But you haven't accepted her request yet. Just approve it, maybe you could keep in touch with her in the future!"
"Eh! It is hard to say. Last time it was purely accidental that I got in touch with you in the World of Cultivators!" Xu Que said with an embarrassing smile as he took out his mobile phone.
After returning to Earth, he seldom used this mobile phone. He only used it to make phone calls. When he logged into his WeChat account, he found a lot of people wanted to add him as a friend.
Xu Que recognized Lin Yuxi's head portrait. He pressed the Accept button immediately. Then he clicked her WeChat Moments subconsciously.
He only saw a blank space.
"Damn! I guess she has blocked me!" Xu Que smiled.
Hearing that, Cai came closer and looked at Xu Que's mobile phone. Then he said with a smile, "Hah-hah-hah, this is so embarrassing!"
"Alas!" Xu Que sighed and said, "These things are still here, but men are no more the same! Once, I could even enter her body. Now, I can't even visit her WeChat Moments!"
Puff!
Cai spat the wine out of his mouth on the spot!
Patter!
At the same time, the sound of something falling to the ground came from the entrance.
Xu Que and Cai turned around and saw Lin Yuxi at the entrance. Her face was red and her handbag had fallen to the ground. She said in a shy and angry manner, "I…got a new phone number! I've just registered a new WeChat account. I haven't posted anything in my WeChat Moments and I didn't block you!"
…
Chapter 949: Leaving Earth!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"…"
Xu Que was stunned. Looking at Lin Yuxi who was standing at the door, his lips twitched slightly.
This…is so embarrassing!
How heedless I am! I didn't notice that Lin Yuxi had arrived!
Puff!
"Ha, ha, ha!" Sitting beside him, Cai couldn't help but laugh wildly and even spit out the wine in his mouth.
"Why are you laughing at me? I didn't expect you would set me up!" Xu Que stared at Cai, embarrassed.
Cai covered his stomach with his hands and kept on laughing, "No, it has nothing to do with me! I…ha, ha, I've also just seen her now! I didn't even have time to remind you. You said the words yourself! What could I do? I am also in despair! Ha, ha, ha!"
( Boxno vel. co m ) "Ahem, that's enough! Stop laughing!" Xu Que patted Cai's shoulder and turned to Lin Yuxi.
Lin Yuxi's face had turned red. Although she had broken up with Xu Que a long time ago and thought she had forgotten him, when she saw him on the TV screen, she was attracted to him again. But she never mentioned this to others and also buried these feelings in her heart. Because now Xu Que and she were people from different worlds. They could never restart their relationship again!
Therefore, she had come here to say good-bye to Xu Que, as well as to the feeling which was deeply buried in her heart. She never expected they would meet in such an embarrassing situation.
In those years, I could even enter her body. Now, I can't even visit her WeChat Moments! This guy is as shameless as he was before!
"Hey, Miss Lin is here! Come in and sit down. Don't be a stranger!" At this time, Xu Que's face was filled with smile again. He greeted Lin Yuxi warmly and pretended nothing had happened just now. He was quite shameless. However, Lin Yuxi couldn't be as shameless as he was. Her face was still red. She nodded her head and stepped in, taking her handbag.
Xu Que raised his glass and said decidedly, "Miss Lin, this glass of wine is for our lost youth and everything that happened before!" He did this to defuse the awkward situation and tell Lin Yuxi that he didn't hold a grudge over the things that had happened before.
Lin Yuxi was stunned a bit. Then she nodded her head and picked up a glass of wine with a smile, "OK, for us!"
Clink! After clinking their glasses, they drank up the wine and smiled at each other.
"Damn! You don't want to drink with me, right?" Cai also tried to defuse the awkward situation.
"Ah, ah! Cai, it seems you are going to get plastered tonight, right? Come on! Let's have a good drink!" Xu Que picked up the wine bottle and filled his glass.
Cai waved his hand hurriedly, "No, no, no! I admit defeat! OK? The dinner hasn't started yet. The dishes haven't been served! I need to eat some food first!"
"OK! Ask them to serve food now. I guess Zeng Darong, Su Xiaoliang, and Wang Jin will be here soon!" Xu Que said with a smile.
Then the three of them started to talk and laugh merrily. Most of the time, Cai was telling some interesting stories that happened during his film shooting. Also, he revealed some celebrity scandals.
Xu Que knew almost nothing about celebrities on Earth. However, Lin Yuxi was listening intently. She was shocked by these scandals.
"No way! I didn't expect he could be a person like that! He never acts like that normally." The scandal about a certain male celebrity shocked Lin Yuxi.
Cai said with a smile, "Alas! Entertainment circles are quite complicated. Almost all celebrities show up with masks. Therefore, don't be surprised by their scandals. Anyway, nobody is perfect!"
"I don't agree with you!" Xu Que raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Actually, in entertainment, I only admire one person – Zhang Ye!"
Puff! Cai laughed immediately, "Face-slapping Zhang is exceptional! He is just like you!"
"Crap! Why did you say that? I am much coyer than Zhang Ye!" Xu Que said shamelessly.
Cai and Lin Yuxi said nothing but smiled.
In a short while, Zeng Darong, Su Xiaoliang, and Wang Jin arrived.
Now six people were gathered in the room, which became more bustling. They ate and drank as they chatted. As they drank more and more wine, their conversation became more and more ardent.
At last, Zeng Darong mentioned the relationship between Xu Que and Lin Yuxi again. He said drunkenly, "I mean we really envied the two of you in our university days! So, just drink up this glass of wine!"
"Right! Ha, ha, Miss Lin, I still remember the scene where Xu Que expressed his love to you in front of your dormitory building. It was so funny!" Su Xiaoliang said with a drunken smile.
Wang Jin said excitedly, "Exactly! Ha, ha! Normally, people will place candles in a heart shape and send flowers when they express love. However, Xu Que didn't want to follow this tradition. He rented several loudspeakers and placed them in a heart shape. Then, he started to shout through them!"
Cai was interested immediately. He asked curiously, "What did he shout?"
Wang Jin replied with a smile, "Ha, ha, he shouted 'Lin Yuxi, come out, I like you! If you refuse to be my girlfriend, I will dance Public Square Dancing in front of your dormitory building every night!'"
Puff! Cai was amused immediately.
Xu Que shook his head with a faint smile. I really miss the days when I was frivolously young!
Tears welled up in Lin Yux's eyes. When Wang Jin described that scene, Xu Que's immature but handsome face showed up in her mind clearly as if it had just happened.
"What happened afterwards? Did they establish their relationship then?" Cai asked again at this time.
However, before Zeng Darong had time to say something, Lin Yuxi replied. She shook her head and said with a yearning smile, "No! Actually, I was totally annoyed by him. Normally, wooing should be romantic. This guy acted shamelessly and tried to make a fool of me. Therefore, I came out and said if he could dance the Public Square Dancing all night, I would agree to be his girlfriend!"
Cai turned to Xu Que and asked, "Hell, did you really do that?"
"No, as a handsome top student, I didn't know how to dance the Public Square Dancing!" Xu Que couldn't help but smile wryly.
Lin Yuxi grinned, "He was dumbfounded. Then, all the girls ran out of the dormitory building and asked him to dance. I didn't expect he would be so shameless!"
"Oh? What shameless thing did he do?" Cai asked curiously.
"He said, 'Lin Yuxi, I am so handsome! Are you really going to ask me to dance in front of so many people? Here, please go with me, and I'll only dance for you!'"
After saying that, Lin Yuxi shook her head and said with a smile, "Everyone in the dormitory building started to boo him. And I refused him! He was punished by the university because he placed loudspeakers in front of the dormitory building. Then he spent one month learning the Public Square Dancing!"
Maybe she had drunk too much wine! Maybe she was really drunk! Maybe she couldn't suppress the feelings in her mind anymore!
When she remembered this scene, she couldn't control her tears anymore. She wept drunkenly, "After learning the dance, he came back with the loudspeakers. Then he danced for over one hour in front of my dormitory building. At last, he was caught by the university's guards. And he even received disciplinary action from the university for that!"
After saying that, she couldn't keep from crying. She said as she looked at Xu Que, "Xu Que, you idiot, do you know I was totally scared at that time! Many people said you were about to be expelled by the university! But I really liked you at that time. If you were expelled, what should I do…."
"After that, Xia Luoqing framed you for having affairs with other girls. I was so annoyed that I believed those false stories. Then I broke up with you on the phone! I know I was outrageous at that time for I didn't give you a chance to explain!"
"When I started to regret it and tried to call you, I got the news that you had had a car accident!"
"Xu Que, I'm sorry…."
She wept and uttered all the words which had been hidden in her heart for so many years.
Zeng Darong, Su Xiaoliang, Wang Jin, and Cai sobered up immediately. They looked at Xu Que speechlessly.
Xu Que, who was stunned, said, shaking his head, "Yuxi, you are plastered. I didn't blame you for the things that happened in those years. You are not the mastermind of those things! Cai, ask the hotel to arrange a room, so that she could have a rest in it!"
"OK, OK, I'm on it!" Cai was stunned a bit. Then he came to himself and walked out of the room immediately.
After making eye contact, Zeng Darong, Su Xiaoliang, and Wang Jin stood up and said, "We'll go to the bathroom!"
The three of them left the room. Then only Xu Que and Lin Yuxi were left in the room.
Lin Yuxi said drunkenly, "I…I am not plastered! You didn't blame me because…I no longer live in your heart. I am so regretful! I…."
"Yuxi!" Xu Que interrupted her abruptly, "What's done is done! Just let it go! Actually, I also miss those good old days. Because we have regrets, so those days were good and should be cherished! But we can't make up those regrets now!"
Xu Que sighed after saying that.
The Space-Breaking Spell could only take several persons away. Therefore, he couldn't risk taking Lin Yuxi to the World of Cultivators. Since he couldn't take her away, it was not necessary to influence her life in the future. As he said, what was done was done! Just let it go!
"Have a good rest! Tomorrow, please live happily ever after!" After saying that, Xu Que touched Lin Yuxi's forehead gently. She looked at Xu Que drunkenly with her eyes full of tears. It seemed she had a lot to tell Xu Que. At last, she closed her eyes gradually and fell asleep quietly in Xu Que's arms.
Xu Que took a deep breath and shook his head. Then he held Lin Yuxi in his arms and took her to the room arranged for her. He tucked her in bed. After that, he turned around and left.
That night, Xu Que said good-bye to Cai and the rest of his friends. He left them some elixirs to keep them from illnesses and elongate their life spans. He also left some elixirs for Lin Yuxi.
"Farewell, my friends!"
At last, Xu Que disappeared, leaving his friends with wistful eyes. They knew clearly that Xu Que would never come back in the future.
Even if he could come back, they would have grown old….
…
The next day, the sun rose, and the sunlight streaked into the room through the window. Lin Yuxi opened her eyes slowly and stared at the ceiling in a daze. After a while, she sat up abruptly and looked out of the window.
"At that time, you won my heart by taking the risk of being expelled by the university! I didn't cherish you and pushed you away because of some ridiculous fake evidence!" Lin Yuxi murmured in a low voice with a strand of self-mockery on her face.
After that, her eyes became more and more determined. Then she said in a low voice, "Now…it is my turn to win you back at all costs. No matter how far you are away from me, I'll find you! Even if I can't find you, I'll wait for you!"
…
At this time, Xu Que had arrived at the summit of Mount Kunlun.
He saw the sun come up and light up the dark horizon. He felt that the things that had happened in the past and attachment to this world had also been wiped out by the sunlight! Xu Que knew it clearly. Maybe Earth was a good place! However, he didn't belong to this world after all!
His future wouldn't end in the World of Cultivators. Further journey into the unknown was waiting for him. His pursuit of cultivation, immortality, and Acting Tough would never stop! Because eternity could only be realized by relentless pursuit.
Unknowingly, Xu Que had been standing at the summit of the mountain for several hours. The Sun was already very high. Jiang Hongyan and Xu Feifei had returned. Singularly, Buttface also came back on time.
Howl! "I've collected recipes of many delicacies! This time I will become world famous!" Buttface shouted excitedly. Apparently, instead of meeting his so-called friends, he had spent his time collecting all kinds of food recipes.
The toy poodle was still twitching his body on Buttface's head.
Puff! "Eight-headed Serpent, you can stop now for you've done enough!" Xu Que, who couldn't watch it anymore, said with a smile.
Buttface said, widening his eyes immediately, "It is far from enough! He can't stop unless I ask him to stop! Anyway, serpent, you are quite sensible! You haven't stopped the massage since yesterday. You really have good physical strength! I appreciate your efforts. Come on, please continue! Harder! Oh yeah! That's it!"
"OK…OK! No…problem!" The toy poodle said excitedly.
"Alas! What a fatal attraction!" Xu Que exclaimed.
Jiang Hongyan shook her head and didn't know what to say.
Xu Feifei's face was very red. She stared at Xu Que, which meant to say this was all caused by you! Xu Que ignored it directly. He didn't debunk what the toy poodle was doing. He waved his hand and led his team into the place under the ruins of the Celestial sect in Mount Kunlun.
In front of the Bronze Door, all of them were fully prepared.
Xu Feifei's face was full of attachment, anxiety, and expectation.
Jiang Hongyan was so graceful, elegant, and calm as always.
Buttface was smiling inattentively as he fantasied he could show off his culinary arts with these recipes in the World of Cultivators!
The toy poodle was…still moving relentlessly.
Xu Que was smiling sturdily. This time he would be powerful enough to confront the Emperor! As long as he could improve the proficiency of the Gautama Buddha Seal with more Skill Essences, he could defeat the Emperor with one move!
"System, let's begin!"
Xu Que stared at the bronze door as he summoned the System in his mind!
Rumble!
An invisible force gushed out from Xu Que's body abruptly, which opened the bronze door a bit. It was pitch-dark in the crack of the door. The glacial wind gushed out together with the magnificent killing aura!
"This aura is so weird! Where does it come from?" Xu Que frowned slightly as he stared at the crack of the bronze door curiously.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see it clearly. What he saw was only the darkness which was even darker than the void!
Whoosh!
Just at this moment, a strand of dazzling light appeared on Xu Que's body. The light was turned to many powerful runes, which covered Jiang Hongyan, Xu Feife, and Buttface beside him completely.
The next moment, a gap appeared in the crack of the bronze door, which devoured Xu Que and his team like a whirlpool!
Bang!
At last, the bronze door was closed heavily!
Xu Que and his team disappeared!
Dead silence came back to this place again!
