Chapter 1150: I Am Quite Interested

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Bai Zhantang of the Exploding Heavens Faction?

The young cultivators were stunned. Making eye contact, they shook their heads for they had never heard of such a sect before.

The girl in the red robe said with a smile, "Silly boy, don't you know only those who are from a famous sect can give a self-introduction? Nobody has heard of your Exploding Heavens Faction. So your self-introduction is useless! Moreover, although that guy's skill was quite poor, he was an experienced thief from the Steal Sect!! I'm afraid some of your properties may have been stolen by him!"

Xu Que looked at these young cultivators with a smile. All of them were well-dressed, which meant they were from rich sects or families. The girl in the red robe was quite beautiful and her skin was very tender. Vitality and cunning could be seen in her face. Apparently, she was a smart girl.

It seemed as if these young cultivators were led by the girl in the red robe. They kept looking at her as if they were checking her expressions and reactions, so that they could say something to please her.

"You haven't heard of the Exploding Heavens Faction! You are so ignorant and ill-informed! I guess you are just a bunch of frogs sitting in a well called the Zhen Yuan Celestial Realm!" Xu Que said, shaking his head mysteriously.

The girl in the red robe was not annoyed by Xu Que's words. On the contrary, she was interested. "Hah-hah, you are quite interesting! Does it mean you are from another Celestial Realm? Silly boy, only cultivators from the Earth Celestial Stage can travel across the Celestial Realms!"

"Ts, tsk, tsk! That's why I called you a bunch of frogs! Ordinary cultivators are not able to travel across the Celestial Realms! But it doesn't mean I can't do it!" Xu Que continued to bluff as he looked around. It seemed he was no longer interested in these young cultivators and wanted to go somewhere else!

Snigger! "You are really good at bluffing!" The girl in the red robe said with a smile as she waved her little hands, "OK, no more joking! You'd better take back what you've lost. You can go with us to ask for your lost properties back!"

"I lost nothing! I even got something from him… Hey, it's none of your business whether I've lost something or not! Why do you want to help me to get my lost properties back?" Xu Que looked at the girl in the red robe suspiciously for nobody would be so kind-hearted nowadays. Also, he didn't lose anything just now. Xu Que had detected the guy's attempt to bump into him right away. And Xu Que's belongings were kept in the System package. How could that guy steal anything from him? Moreover, according to Xu Que's style, he would definitely respond if anyone tried to steal from him. So he had taken that opportunity to steal the guy's Storage Rings! However, his movement was not detected by the thief or these young cultivators led by the girl in the red robe.

Xu Que figured his chance to act tough had come. These young cultivators would definitely be shocked when he took out the Storage Rings. However, before he decided how to take out the Storage Rings, the girl in the red robe said, "We mean no harm! Actually, a friend of mine was also stolen by the Steal Sect! So we have kept following the members of the Steal Sect. I didn't expect that you would also be robbed by them before we found their lair. You are cute and silly, so we decided to take you with us, so that you could get your lost properties back!"

"What? You are going to make trouble…" Puff! "No, you are going to destroy the thieves' lair, right? Great! I am quite interested! Frankly speaking, I lost something indeed. Let's go and follow them!" Xu Que said, nodding his head.

He was so bored that he decided to hang around this city. Then, suddenly, someone told him they would take him to make some trouble. How could he miss this opportunity?

"Oh? Don't you need to check what you have lost?" The girl in the red robe said in surprise. It seemed she was shocked by Xu Que's quick change in reaction. The rest of the young cultivators also frowned as they looked at Xu Que because they got a feeling that this guy was not going to destroy the thieves' lair but have fun.

"I know what I've lost! Just now I didn't admit it because I felt embarrassed! OK, ignore these details! Let's go, or we will miss him!" Xu Que urged them eagerly.

The girl in the red robe agreed. "OK! Let's just follow him! The Steal Sect is becoming more and more outrageous! I didn't expect they would have the balls to steal from us!" They started to walk toward the end of the street, following the thief's aura.

On their way, Xu Que acquired more information about the Steal Sect from the young cultivators. The Steal Sect could be deemed the largest sect in the entire Zhenyuan Celestial Realm. They had a lot of members, who could be found in every inhabitable corner of this continent! However, the Steal Sect had too many members, which increased the difficulty in managing them. Therefore, they set up a branch in each ancient city. The head was responsible for collecting the stolen goods, which could be disposed of through special channels.

Also, the Steal Sect had an unwritten law that they shouldn't steal from those who had distinguished identities. Therefore, they would only lay hands on the poor to avoid all possible troubles. They seldom stole properties from the rich unless they were paid a large sum to do so. They kept moving their branches throughout different cities. So the girl in the red robe and the rest of the young cultivators had to follow that thief to find their branch, so that they could punish its leader.

After finding out all that information, Xu Que got a feeling that the Steal Sect was quite interesting. Its organization was just like that of the Beggars' Sect. However, they were not chivalrous at all for they only targeted the poor.

"Our high morality wouldn't tolerate such a vile sect! We must get rid of it for the people!" Xu Que shouted justly and severely.

The girl in the red robe said, waving her hands, "No, we only need to punish them this time for we have to obey the rules. So don't do anything stupid, silly boy. Otherwise, I can't protect you if you make big trouble!"

"What? How could you be so cowardly?" Xu Que tried to dare her to get her to be braver.

The girl in the red robe didn't buy it at all. She said as she looked at Xu Que with a smile, "Anyway, I won't do that! If you really provoke the Steal Sect, I'm afraid… Heh, heh, no more talking, the thief has arrived at their branch!" After saying that, she dashed forward with a naughty smile.

Xu Que found they had arrived at a remote alley, which was quiet and full of chilly winds. The young cultivators ignored the gusts of freezing air. Led by the girl in the red robe, they walked with a swagger toward an old house at the end of the alley..

A shabbily dressed old man with white hair was sitting outside the old house. It seemed he was doorkeeper of that house. When the young cultivators arrived outside the door, the old man said calmly, "Young guys, you are going the wrong way!"

"Humph! The Steal Sect always obey your rules. But your members in Baihui City violated your rules by stealing my friend! I won't leave the matter at that! Ask your leader to see me here! Tell him we are from the Litian Academy!" The girl in the red robe said coldly.

Hearing that, the old man changed his expression as he looked up at the girl in surprise, "Li…Litian Academy?"

Whoosh!

The next moment, he stood up instantly and said with a respectful smile, "My dear scholars, I guess there has been a misunderstanding here! The Steal Sect will repay anything you've lost ten times over and will make apologies to you!"

"Humph! One of my Storage Rings was stolen! Inside that Storage Ring, there were more than 100 Middle-grade Spiritual Crystals! Can you afford to repay me the Spiritual Crystals ten times over?" A young man beside the girl in the red robe said angrily.

The smile was frozen on the face of the old man. Over 100 Middle-grade Spiritual Crystals meant ten High-grade Spiritual Crystals. If they agreed to repay him for ten times of what he was stolen, they had to offer him over 100 High-grade Spiritual Crystals!

"Eh…please calm down! I will inform our leader and ask him to deal with this issue immediately. I believe he will give you a satisfactory reply!" The old man said with a wry smile.

According to the rules, if a thief stole something inappropriately, the Steal Sect had to repay ten times of what was stolen. This time, the compensation was over 100 High-grade Spiritual Crystals, which couldn't be decided by a small potato like him but the branch leader!

"Wait! Your member also stole things from another friend of mine!" The girl in the red robe stopped the old man who was walking into the house. Then she turned to Xu Que and said, "OK, tell him what you have lost!"

"Humph!" Xu Que said angrily, imitating the young man who had spoken just now. "Your thief stole more than 9,000 Inferior Celestial Artifacts from me!"

Chapter 1151: Call Me Elder Sister!

Puff!!

A young cultivator couldn't help but spit water out of his mouth.

The rest of the young cultivators, the girl in the red robe, and the old man were also shocked by Xu Que's words. All of them stared at Xu Que with wide eyes.

Over 9,000 Inferior Celestial Artifacts?

Has he lost his mind? You can't extort anyone in this way!

Over 9,000 Inferior Celestial Artifacts! How could the Steal Sect repay you? It is impossible for them to have so many Celestial Artifacts, let alone to repay you ten times over!

"Silly boy, what are you talking about?" The girl in the red robe stared at Xu Que. Then she turned to the old man and said, "My friend is too angry now. Please ignore his words. Just ask the one who stole from us before to meet us here. He knows what he has stolen!"

"OK! Please hold on for a moment! I will ask our leader to meet you immediately!" The old man thought Xu Que was kidding. He walked into the old house.

Then the girl in the red robe turned to Xu Que and said, shaking her head, "Silly boy, you are really joking! How could you say over 9,000 Inferior Celestial Artifacts were stolen? You can't extort them in this way!"

"Wait! Let me clarify something first! Stop calling me silly boy, my silly younger sister, OK? I am planning to make big trouble here! Just don't get involved!" Xu Que said with a thoughtful smile.

This Steal Sect hadn't attracted his interest before. When he found out that this sect didn't dare to provoke the rich and only targeted the poor, Xu Que was annoyed because he didn't like those who only bullied the kind and weak people. Normally, Xu Que was not such a chivalrous person who would get rid of evilness for the people. The only reason for him to punish the Steal Sect was that the Steal Sect had dared to target him. Apparently, he was a weak person to the Steal Sect!

Xu Que was quite unhappy when he was looked down upon by Feng Lanwu and her maidservant. So he had decided to take a break in this place. But he didn't expect that he would be chosen as a target by the Steal Sect, which totally annoyed him.

This is totally outrageous! They have some nerve!

Could I accept it? Never!

So he decided to get together with these young cultivators and make a lot of trouble to let the Steal Sect know that he was not weak and nobody could afford to offend him easily!

"Hey, silly boy, what did you call me just now? How dare you call me silly younger sister? Don't you know I can beat you up for being too rude!" At this time, the girl in the red robe scolded Xu Que since she was a senior to him.

The rest of the young cultivators also looked at Xu Que in surprise. Apparently, what Xu Que had said had shocked them. Seeing their reaction, Xu Que figured out that the girl's identity must be extraordinary. However, he ignored it directly and said proudly, "You want to beat me up? Heh, heh, I didn't expect a little girl like you also likes bluffing. You've just reached the Initial Stage of the Human Celestial Stage. I am sure I can defeat all of you instantly!"

This time, what he said was true. When his wounds healed, he got a clear feeling that his strength had been enhanced remarkably. Now, he was only a step away from the Medium Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage. After a short secluded cultivation, he would definitely realize a breakthrough! Therefore, he was much more powerful than before. The girl in the red robe and the rest of the young cultivators couldn't rival him at all.

Snigger! "Silly boy, if you continue to act rudely like this, as your elder sister, I will really beat you up!" The girl in the red robe said with a smile. She even tried to pinch Xu Que's face with her hand.

"Hey! Hey! What are you doing? Stay away from me! You can't pinch my handsome face!" Xu Que shouted as he widened his eyes. Then, he stepped back to dodge the girl's hand.

The girl in the red robe frowned immediately, "Boo! You are so mean! I won't beat you up! Why are you so nervous? According to your bone age, I guess you are less than 100 years old! You are quite gifted to reach the Half-Celestial Stage at such a young age! How about this? In future, you will be my younger brother and call me elder sister! I'll protect you!"

Immediately, the young cultivators beside her changed their expressions and looked at Xu Que in an admiring and even envious way!

"What? You want to be my elder sister? Stop your daydreaming! You could only be my younger sister! Call me elder brother and I'll protect you in the future!" Xu Que said, shaking his head.

He knew this girl's identity was quite extraordinary. But he was not a nobody. If the mighty leader of the Exploding Heavens Faction had to seek shelter from a little girl, how could he maintain a foothold in this world? This was an unshakable bottom line!

"Silly boy, you are really cocky! Forget it, I won't force you to accept it if you don't want it, my younger brother!" The girl in the red robe said as she patted Xu Que's shoulders with generosity.

Xu Que said, "Then, thank you! My younger sister!"

"My younger brother, you should call me elder sister!" The girl in the red robe corrected.

"My younger sister, you should call me elder brother!" Xu Que said, shaking his head.

The girl in the red robe widened her eyes stubbornly, "My younger brother!"

Xu Que retorted overbearingly, "My younger sister!"

"My younger brother!"

"My younger sister!"

"My younger brother!"

"My younger sister!"

…..

They started to debate in such a naive way. The rest of the young cultivators were shocked by their conversation. They were surprised by Xu Que's boldness and also admired him because the girl in the red robe chose to forgive him after being treated rudely by him several times.

Squeak!

Just at this time, the door of the old house opened. Three figures walked out and interrupted the debate between Xu Que and the girl.

Turning around, they saw a shifty-eyed emaciated man and a graceful middle-aged man beside the white-haired old man they had seen before.

Xu Que recognized that the shifty-eyed man was the one who had bumped into him on the street. Apparently, the middle-aged man must be the leader of the Steal Sect's branch in this city.

"It is our great honor to have you here, my dear scholars. Who is your Master in the Litian Academy, please?" The middle-aged man asked the girl in the red robe with a smile. Although he was quite polite, he was not intimidated by these young cultivators.

As the leader of the thieves in this city, he tried to maintain his gravity. Although his branch could not rival the Litian Academy, it was impossible for him to be intimidated by several young scholars. However, he was dumbfounded the next moment.

The girl in the red robe said casually, "My father is Qin Xiangtian!"

"Wh…at? Dean…Qin? Is your father Dean Qin of the Litian Academy?"

The middle-aged man changed his expression abruptly. Then he said in shock, "So, you are…Qin Susu who ranks tenth on the Heavenly Tripod List, right?"

The girl in the red robe said with a faint smile, "Right! I am Qin Susu!"

Chapter 1152: The Steal Sage of the Exploding Heavens Faction

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Gasp!

Instantly, the middle-aged man and the white-haired old man gasped in terror. The emaciated thief turned pale and started to tremble all over!

The Litian Academy was one of the top three academies in the Zhenyuan Celestial Realm! Countless Elders and even leaders of big sects had graduated from this academy, which played a decisive role in this world!

Now, the daughter of Qin Xiangtian, the current dean of this academy, was standing in front of them! More important, Qin Susu was ranked tenth on the Human List of the Heavenly Tripod List, which was the most authoritative ranking list for the strength of cultivators in the entire World of Near Celestials! Any powerful cultivator whose bone age was lower than 2,000 years could be listed in this ranking list, no matter whether this cultivator was from the Heaven Continent, the Earth Continent, or the Xuanhuang Continent!

The ranking list for cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage was the Human List of the Heavenly Tripod List. Qin Susu ranked tenth on this list, which meant her strength was really remarkable! Therefore, she could shock the middle-aged man with her identity as the tenth on the Human List of the Heavenly Tripod List, as well as the fact that she was also the daughter of Qin Xiangtian!

Bang!

Suddenly, the middle-aged man slapped the back of the emaciated man with his hand heavily. Along with a dull sound, the emaciated man went down on his knees with a pale face. Before the middle-aged man said something, he shouted in terror, "Ms. Qin, please forgive me! I am as blind as a bat! I was wrong to steal from your friends! Please spare my life, Ms. Qin!"

"Spare your life? I didn't say I would kill you!" Qin Susu said with a smile.

Hearing that, the emaciated man kowtowed and he shouted, "Thank you, Ms. Qin! Thank you, Ms. Qin!"

"Ms. Qin, this is a misunderstanding! Please show your mercy and forgive us! In future, we will follow the rules strictly! We will make a compensation to your friends for ten times what their stolen properties were worth!" The middle-aged man said earnestly.

Hearing that, Qin Susu said, nodding her head, "Since you have made an apology in such a sincere way, I won't blame you any further. I will forgive you. As for the compensation to my friends, you should do it according to the rules!"

"OK! OK! Thank you very much for your magnanimity, Ms. Qin!" The middle-aged man let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile.

Then he kicked the emaciated man who was kneeling on the ground and said seriously, "What are you waiting for? You should make a compensation to Ms. Qin's friends for ten times the amount of the things stolen by you!"

"As you wish!" The emaciated man replied immediately. Then he started to search for something on his body. Members of the Steal Sect always kept their Storage Rings in their belts or other hidden places. They wouldn't wear the Storage Rings on their hands because the Storage Rings would glow and attract the attention of others when things were placed into them.

However, after searching in his belt for a while, his expression changed and he started to tremble. Then he looked up at the middle-aged man and said helplessly, "Leader, I can't find my…Storage Rings!"

"What?" The middle-aged man was shocked by his words.

"I always keep my Storage Rings in this place. They were there when I stole from that young master!" The emaciated man said as he pointed at a young man beside Qin Susu.

"Did you still have your Storage Rings when you stole from him?" The middle-aged man said, pointing at Xu Que.

The emaciated man said, putting on a long face, "I failed to steal anything from him! It seemed…this young master had nothing on his body! So, I decided to return… Wait! No, the feeling at that time was quite familiar!"

Suddenly, the emaciated man remembered that he decided to leave when he found nothing on Xu Que's body. Then, when he was about to leave, he got a vague feeling that an indistinct Soul Strength had swept away on his body. However, he ignored that for he thought Xu Que had tried to check his cultivation stage. Now, when he recalled that scene, he found Xu Que's action was quite similar to the magic arts of the Steal Sect.

"It's…you!" As he thought of this, the emaciated man looked at Xu Que in shock. As an experienced thief, he was basically sure that when he tried to steal something from Xu Que, all his Storage Rings were stolen by Xu Que silently.

"Me? What's wrong with me? Oh, you lost your Storage Rings and have forgotten what you stole from me, right? It's OK! You stole more than 9,000 Inferior Celestial Artifacts from me! You don't need to compensate me for ten times that! Five times are OK for me!" Xu Que said affectedly.

"More than 9,000 Inferior Celestial Artifacts?" The middle-aged man was shocked and looked at Xu Que with puzzlement. Then he turned to Qin Susu. Apparently, he didn't take Xu Que's words seriously but was curious about Xu Que's purpose of bluffing.

"Leader!" At this time, the emaciated man stood up and said in a low voice seriously, "This guy is a peer and he is damn good!"

"What?" Hearing that, the middle-aged man's eyes got wide instantly. He knew his underling wouldn't dare to fool him. So, what the emaciated man said must be true!

"My Storage Rings were stolen by him!" The emaciated man added.

The middle-aged man was totally confused. One of his underlings had violated the rules by stealing things from Qin Susu's friend. However, the thief's Storage Rings were then stolen by another friend of Qin Susu. Now, Qin Susu had come here to send a punitive expedition against him. Does it mean she is trying to extort me?

"Wait! What did you say? My younger brother stole your Storage Rings?" Qin Susu asked as she looked at that emaciated man in surprise.

The emaciated man said obsequiously, "Ms. Qin, I swear with the Inner Demons that I will die miserably if I told a lie to you!"

Swish!

All at once, everyone fixed their eyes on Xu Que.

Anyone who swore with the Inner Demons would never tell a lie. It meant this thief's Storage Rings had really been stolen by Xu Que!

"My younger brother!" Qin Susu looked at Xu Que thoughtfully.

"What? My younger sister, I've told you that! I lost nothing and even gained something! You just didn't believe what I said!" Xu Que shrugged as he answered fearlessly.

Then he took out the thief's Storage Rings and played with them. Apparently, he was showing off.

"Then, why did you say you lost something after that? It turns out you are a liar! No, you are not only a liar, but also a thief who knows the magic arts of the Steal Sect!!" Qin Susu's expression was no longer that mild. Her tone was even colder than before. After all, she had thought Xu Que was just a silly boy who always uttered funny words before that. So, she had asked him to be her younger brother for fun. Now, she realized she had made a mistake. This guy was so cunning and even dared to tease her!

"Hey! My younger sister, why are you so angry? Calm down! I've told you that I am Bai Zhantang of the Exploding Heavens Faction. You haven't heard of my name because you are ignorant!" Xu Que said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Qin Susu asked seriously.

Xu Que replied with a smile, "All well-informed people know Bai Zhantang of the Exploding Heavens Faction has a nickname—the Steal Sage!"

Boom!

The next moment, a magnificent Celestial Core Power gushed out from Xu Que's body, which filled the area with violent winds.

Qin Susu and the others in this area had to resist the violent winds with their Celestial Core Power. However, they saw a figure flying in front of them and disappearing at the exit of the alley.

Then Xu Que's voice could be heard from afar, "Remember! I will only teach you a lesson this time. In future, you shall be more careful and don't offend me!" After that, the violent winds disappeared. People found Xu Que had gone. They were not even able to sense his aura.

"A lesson? What does that mean?" Qin Susu said with puzzlement.

"Wait!"

At this moment, the middle-aged man, who had just tried to search for his Storage Ring in his clothes, changed his expression abruptly. Then he yelled angrily, "He stole my Storage Ring, where all the stolen properties of the Steal Sect's branch in Baihui City for the last 800 years are kept!"

Chapter 1153: Their Hobbies Are Really Weird!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Wh…at?"

All the people in the area shouted in surprise. Their eyes and mouths were wide open with shock. The next moment, they started to search for their Storage Rings. Soon all of them were completely dumbfounded.

Storage Rings? All my Storage Rings are gone!

All the Storage Rings of the middle-aged man, the white-haired old man, Qin Susu, and the rest of the young cultivators had disappeared.

"Holy sh*t!"

"This guy is outrageous! How could he even steal from us?"

"D*mn! We haven't done anything to offend him!"

"What a despicable thief!"

The young cultivators started to curse loudly. They never expected that they could be robbed by Xu Que! When they decided to take Xu Que with them to get back his stolen properties, they didn't expect that they could be robbed by Xu Que!

"Leader…I found a note…here!" With a note in hand, the emaciated man who was kneeling on the ground said in a shaky voice.

The middle-aged man grabbed the note and read it aloud: The Exploding Heavens Faction robs the rich and assists the poor! Bai Zhantang enforces justice on behalf of Heaven! –Steal Sage of the Exploding Heavens Faction

Swash!

After reading that, the middle-aged man tore the note into pieces as he trembled with anger. Then he said, clenching his teeth angrily, "Bastard!"

As the leader of the Steal Sect's branch, his steal skill was extraordinary. However, he had been robbed by a young man. This was definitely a burning shame!

More important, some precious stolen items that they hadn't dared to sell for around 1,000 years were kept in that ring, including some items ordered by their customers! Now all these items had been stolen. How could he stay calm?

"Ms. Qin, you should give us an explanation for this issue. You can't bully us even if you are Dean Qin's daughter!" The middle-aged man looked at Qin Susu and tried to get an explanation. After all, Xu Que had been brought here by Qin Susu, so she should be responsible for what had occurred.

However, Qin Susu's face was full of chilliness. The kind and mild smile had long disappeared. She stared at the middle-aged man coldly. Seeing that, the middle-aged man was intimidated and took a step back and even lowered his head.

At this time, Qin Susu said coldly, "Think with your brain! He even stole our properties! Do you still think he is with us? If your member didn't break the rule by stealing from him first, he wouldn't have sought revenge against you! Now, you've just reaped the fruits of your actions! Why do you need an explanation from me?"

After saying that, Qin Susu looked at the exit of the alley with squinted eyes. Then she said with a smile, "Interesting! I didn't expect my younger brother would be a thief! How could he do that to me? Humph! I'll punish you severely!"

…..

At the same time, Xu Que had left the alley with a lot of booty. In fact, he didn't expect he would get something this good from these people. He was just trying to vent his anger. As for Qin Susu and the rest of the young cultivators, he just wanted to make fun of them. He would return their properties to them if he met them in the future.

However, when Xu Que erased the middle-aged man���s aura on his Storage Ring, he was shocked by what he found in it. This Storage Ring was just like a big treasure house. Over 10,000 resplendent Spirit Stones were kept in it. Xu Que knew they were called the Spiritual Crystals in the World of Near Celestials, which were much more precious than Spirit Stones. According to their quality and the rich degree of the Spiritual Qi, these would be High-grade Spiritual Crystals!

Of course, what really shocked Xu Que were the ten Inferior Celestial Artifacts in the Storage Ring.

It seems the Steal Sect is quite wealthy! A small leader at the Later Stage of the Human Celestial Stage has ten Inferior Celestial Artifacts! He is almost as wealthy as me! Xu Que smiled with satisfaction.

He stole from Qin Susu because she tried to make fun of him and he would return the stolen items. He stole from the middle-aged man to punish him. So, he would never return the stolen items to him at all. Xu Que was so delighted to see the Inferior Celestial Artifacts, which were totally unexpected!

"Wait! Some of these Inferior Celestial Artifacts were ordered by some people!" Xu Que was surprised for he found two Inferior Celestial Artifacts were marked by the middle-aged man with his Soul Strength, including one sword which was marked as "ordered by Young Master Feng of the Ling Family" and a moon blade which was marked as "ordered by Elder Feng"!

Heh, heh, the orders are useless for all these items are mine now! Hmmm, it seems this sword is pretty good and could rival that broken sword. I think the Sword Spirit could move to a new place! Xu Que said to himself.

Then he wiped off all the marks on those two Inferior Celestial Artifacts and put everything he obtained into the System package.

What?

When Xu Que put all the Spiritual Crystals and Inferior Celestial Artifacts into his package, he found some strange boxes in the corner of the Storage Ring. He could even sense a strand of faint fragrance from them! All those boxes were also marked, such as "order by Master of the Ling Family", "ordered by Elder Feng", or "ordered by Su Yannan", etc.

Although Xu Que didn't know these people, he knew that people who would order something from the Steal Sect must have extraordinary identities.

Even those Inferior Celestial Artifacts are not packed in such an exquisite way! Could it be that…something more precious is kept in these boxes? Xu Que's eyes lit up immediately.

Whoosh!

The next moment, he started to check those boxes with his Soul Strength. He destroyed the restrictive seals on the boxes rapidly. When they were opened, he saw all kinds of colorful clothes in them.

What? What the h*ll is that? Xu Que was stunned by what he saw.

When he checked the items carefully, he was totally confused. Because he found all kinds of colorful women's underwear in those boxes. Even worse, he also found tags on the underwear, such as "underwear of the eldest daughter of the Lin Family", "underwear of the third daughter of the Su Family", and "underpants of Widow Zhang who lives on the north street"…

He also found several empty boxes that were tagged as "underpants of Qin Susu ordered by Elder Feng, out of stock" and "new underpants of Widow Zhang ordered by Su Yannan, out of stock"…

D&mn! Their hobbies are really weird! The Steal Sect is too vile! How could they steal these things… Xu Que sighed and he shook his head with embarrassment. He decided to throw these things away. When he looked at the names on the boxes, as well as those who placed the orders, Xu Que stopped. Then his eyes crinkled up and his face was filled with a smile.

Throw away?

Why should I do that?

This is a d*mn good opportunity to make trouble!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is so interesting! Before doing that, I need to enhance my strength first…" Xu Que said, touching his chin thoughtfully.

"Interesting? My younger brother, why don't you share your interesting things with your elder sister?" Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind him.

"Holy sh*t!" Xu Que was shocked.

This must be Qin Susu!

But when did she get here? He had failed to sense her even when she was so close to him!

This girl's strength is extraordinary!

…..

Chapter 1154: I Am Full of Good Intentions

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Humph! Little brat, I helped you with good intentions. How dare you cheat me and even steal our Storage Rings?" Qin Susu landed on the ground and shouted, as she looked at Xu Que angrily.

When Xu Que understood that Qin Susu didn't want to attack him, he curbed the impulse to run away with his Firestorm Wheels. Then he said with a smile, "My sister, you misunderstood me! I also did that out of good intentions!"

"Good intentions? Heh, heh, how can you be so shameless after stealing our property? OK, just tell me what your good intentions were! If you can convince me, I, your elder sister, might let you go!" Qin Susu said with a cold smile.

"Alas!" Xu Que sighed and shook his head. Then he said earnestly, placing his hands behind his back, "Please don't always describe my actions with the word steal. OK? I didn't steal, I took! How could a handsome man steal things? If I hadn't taken your Storage Rings, the Steal Sect would definitely have stolen them. And you would lose them forever! Now I am keeping them for you. And I will give them back to you. They are safe and sound!"

After saying that, Xu Que waved his hand to throw those Storage Rings back to Qin Susu like strands of light.

Qin Susu received the Storage Rings and said thoughtfully, "So, we should thank you for what you did, right?"

"That won't be necessary. We should take care of each other. It is really not necessary to mention it. I still have something urgent to handle! Farewell!"

Xu Que was about to leave. He got a feeling that Qin Susu was unreasonably powerful. Although she was just at the Initial Stage of the Human Celestial Stage, he felt he was standing in front of a cultivator at the Earth Celestial Stage. If he had to fight her, he was not sure whether he could win.

"My younger brother, do you really think you can convince your elder sister with your absurd deception?" Qin Susu said with a smile as she waved her hand. A strand of red light gushed out from her fingers and dashed toward Xu Que rapidly.

"Holy sh*t! My sister, I've returned the Storage Rings to you. Are you sure you want to have a fight with me?" Xu Que raised his eyebrows. Then he dodged the attack of the red light by stepping on lightning.

Qin Susu said in surprise, "Wow! You are quite powerful! I didn't expect a cultivator at the Initial Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage could dodge the attack of my Red Dust Shackle!" Normally, she wouldn't be surprised if a cultivator at the Initial Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage could dodge her attack. However, Xu Que had dodged the attack quite easily. Only cultivators on the Heavenly Tripod List could dodge her attacks that easily!

"Are you one of those anonymous guys on the Heavenly Tripod List?" Qin Susu asked seriously.

When Xu Que stole those Storage Rings in front of her, she started to doubt what he knew about him. Now, she was more convinced than ever that Xu Que was quite powerful and was definitely qualified to enter the Heavenly Tripod List. However, she knew almost all the sovereigns who had publicized their names on the Heavenly Tripod List. Some powerhouses didn't want to reveal their names. So they were called the mysterious powerhouses on the Heavenly Tripod List. Nobody had seen them before. Qin Susu wondered whether Xu Que was one of them.

"The Heavenly Tripod List? I haven't heard of it before! I only know the Exploding Heavens Faction, and I rank number one in it!" Xu Que said with a smile.

"Boo! You are so petty! I don't understand why you want to hide it!" Qin Susu said, shaking her head for she was sure Xu Que was one of those mysterious sovereigns on the Heavenly Tripod List.

"My sister, you really have thought too much about it! I don't want to waste my time here for I really have something to handle! So, farewell, and see you next time!" Xu Que didn't want to explain. So he waved his hand and jumped up into the sky by stepping on lightning. The next moment, he disappeared on the horizon.

Qin Susu, who had planned to punish him, hesitated for a minute. Then she said with a faint smile, "Heh! He is one of the mysterious sovereigns on the Heavenly Tripod List! It seems I have made the right decision to accept him as my brother! I will let him go this time for I have to deal with the issues of the Equipment Refining Convention! I will ask the Equipment Refining Sect to send more Equipment Forging Grandmasters to our Litian Academy!"

After saying that, Qin Susu turned around and left.

…..

One hour later, Xu Que hid himself in a small hostel in the southern part of Baihui City after flying around the city many times. After checking his body carefully, he didn't find any marks left by others. So, he let out a sigh of relief.

Apparently, Qin Susu found him because of the soul mark of Qin Susu on her Storage Ring. Xu Que had returned the Storage Rings to her. It should be impossible for her to find this place.

"No wonder this is the Earth Continent. There are too many powerful people here! Qin Susu, who is just at the Initial Stage of the Human Celestial Stage, is so powerful! If I can't enhance my strength, I won't have any carefree days in this place!" Xu Que murmured as he shook his head. Then he took out several small Spell Disks from the System package.

Whoosh!

He waved his hand to set up spells in this room to isolate his aura. Meanwhile, a strong defensive spell Array was also set up in this small room. Although this defensive spell Array could be broken by powerhouses, he would be startled when anyone attacked it. That would be enough for him!

"The Medium Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage! OK, let me realize a breakthrough!" Xu Que said with a smile as he took out more than 100 High-grade Spiritual Crystals. Then, he set up a small Soul Gathering Array with those Spiritual Crystals on the ground. After that, he sat down on the ground with his legs crossed as he made a hand seal and placed it in front of his Dantian. After taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes and entered the state of secluded cultivation.

Although this breakthrough would happen in only a matter of time for him, he still needed a lot of Spiritual Qi during this period. In order to avoid startling his enemies, he had to reduce the consumption of the Spiritual Qi between the Heaven and Earth. So he chose to use the Spiritual Qi in the Spiritual Crystals. Apparently, it was quite lavish. Normally, people wouldn't do that. However, Xu Que didn't care at all. Even though he only had several hundred Spiritual Crystals left, he would use them for his secluded cultivation without hesitation. He also had more than 10,000 stolen High-grade Spiritual Crystals. After all, the Spiritual Crystal, which was a symbol of wealth in this place, was nothing for him if he could attain it through robbery easily.

Normally, cultivators didn't dare to offend big sects. But he was not an ordinary cultivator. No sect could intimidate him and he would offend anyone without hesitation.

Boom!

When Xu Que gave a play of the Ancient Five Elemental Arts, the Celestial Core Power in his body started to flow rapidly. His hair pores were widely opened to absorb the Spiritual Qi. The High-grade Spiritual Crystals started to move along the spell formation and give off magnificent Spiritual Qi, which flooded into his hair pores and Meridians.

This absorption speed was horrible, which was the result of his Celestial spiritual roots and Ancient Five Elemental Arts. The path he had chosen and his Taoist Connotation were different from other people from the very beginning.

Boom-boom-boom!

At this moment, a lot of dull sounds roared out from Xu Que's body as if they were divine thunder. His momentum was also rocketing at this moment. This situation continued for a long time.

Two hours!

Four hours!

One day!

Two days!

Three days!

…..

Six days later, Xu Que opened his eyes abruptly. His eyes were bright and deep in this pitch-dark night! "I've reached the Medium Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage!" Xu Que said with a smile as he stood up from the ground.

At this time, he found that over half of the Spiritual Crystals on the ground had been ruined. The rest were cracked and he would barely sense Spiritual Qi in them.

Luckily, I was fully prepared, or I would have run out of Spiritual Qi during the breakthrough! Xu Que thought to himself as he wiped off the ashes of the ruined Spiritual Crystals. Then, he took out the damaged broken sword and the sword he stole from the leader of the Steal Sect from the System package.

"Sword Spirit, come forth, I prepared a new sword for you!" Xu Que shouted at the damaged broken sword.

Whoosh!

The broken sword trembled a bit. Then the Sword Spirit, covered in black fog, appeared.

After checking the sword in Xu Que's hand, the Sword Spirit said, shaking its head disdainfully, "Another Inferior Celestial Artifact? This sword is a piece of junk!"

"So, do you need it or not? It is quite difficult to find a good Celestial Artifact now! I risked my life to get this sword! You should at least feel grateful to me!" Xu Que said.

Hearing that, the Sword Spirit said, nodding its head, "OK! Your cultivation stage is still low! I don't want to make you feel embarrassed! However, this place is full of powerhouses! You'd better find me a sword that is a Low-grade or Middle-grade Celestial Artifact. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for you to defeat those cultivators at the Earth Celestial Stage!" After saying that, the Sword Spirit turned itself into a cloud of black smoke and gushed into the sword directly!

Xu Que put away the sword and sold the broken sword to the System for 100,000 points of Equipment Refining Essence. Although the quality of the broken sword was pretty good, it was seriously damaged, but it did bring him more than 100,000 points of Equipment Refining Essence.

"It seems I need to get a Low-grade Celestial Artifact sword! Otherwise, I will have trouble when I meet the leader of the Steal Sect's branch in this city!"

After thinking about the Sword Spirit's words for a while, Xu Que canceled the spell Arrays in his room and walked out of the door. He decided to hang around in the city, so that he could extort…no, borrow some Celestial Artifacts from his enemies!

…..

Chapter 1155: Merciless Killing

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The hostel Xu Que was living in was at the edge of the bustling southern part of the city.

To his surprise, he had performed the secluded cultivation for six days. He thought the Steal Sect would be searching for him crazily. However, nothing happened during this period.

When he stepped out of the hostel and stood in the street, nobody gave him a second glance. Also, he didn't sense any people of the Steal Sect in this area.

What? Does it mean Qin Susu handled them for me? Hmm, I don't think so! She is not a fool and would never do something like this! Xu Que murmured to himself..

He had met Qin Susu by chance. She would never help him by offending the Steal Sect. After all, the Steal Sect had lost ten Inferior Celestial Artifacts and much private information related to many people in their Storage Ring. So, the Steal Sect would never make concessions to avoid conflicts with Qin Susu.

Furthermore, Qin Susu wouldn't help him even if she really admired him. Admiration was based on strength. If he was not able to solve the troubles created by himself, he would just be a stupid troublemaker! In this way, how could Qin Susu admire him? Therefore, it was impossible for Qin Susu to help him.

So, Xu Que guessed the Steal Sect was planning something big. Or, it was possible that they were taking some remedial measures before punishing Xu Que.

"Heh, heh, I don't care what you are planning! I won't be intimidated by you!" Xu Que said with a smile as he walked toward the bustling streets. He tried to check the identity and the addresses of those who ordered women's underwear, so that he could extort them in future.

"Hey, my fellow cultivator Bai, long time, no see! Let's have tea together!" A young man walked up and greeted Xu Que warmly at this time.

Xu Que, who was surprised, frowned immediately. He didn't know this person and had never met him before!

"What?"

The next moment, Xu Que squinted his eyes in concentration for he had sensed many people were approaching him from different directions as this young man was walking toward him.

More important, he sensed he was facing more than ten people who were at the Initial Stage and the Medium Stage of the Human Celestial Stage. Now, he had become their target and been surrounded by them.

Heh! I've just realized my breakthrough! I didn't expect someone could offer me an opportunity to act tough now! Xu Que was quite happy to see this scene.

He would have turned around and escaped if he had had to confront more than ten cultivators at the authentic Human Celestial Stage six days ago when he hadn't reached the Medium Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage and moved the Sword Spirit to the new Sword. Although he could have killed them with a Six-color Fiery Lotus, he could also have been wounded. Then he could still have been killed by other members of the Steal Sect.

Now, though he had reached the Medium Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage, which meant his strength had been enhanced remarkably. Also, he could get assistance from the Sword Spirit again. So he could kill cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage with one blow! Therefore, he was quite calm at this time. He said as he looked at that young man with a smile, "Hey, my fellow cultivator Wang, long time, no see! I don't want to drink tea! Let's drink some wine directly!"

"Eh…hah, hah, hah, OK, I almost forgot you like drinking wine! Let's go!" The young man was surprised by Xu Que's cooperative attitude.

"Sorry, I forgot you always ask me to call you Wang Ba because we are close friends, right? Please forgive me, Brother Wang Ba!" Xu Que said as if he suddenly remembered something.

Snigger! Some people on the street couldn't help but snigger when they heard this conversation.

Wang Ba? Who the h*ll could use that as a name? "….." A smile was frozen on the face of the young man. Then anger flashed in his eyes.

His family name was not Wang at all. He just tried to fool Xu Que by pretending he knew him. But he didn't expect to be ridiculed by Xu Que!

"Brother Wang Ba, what are you waiting for? I know a place that sells pretty good wine. Let's go!" Xu Que shouted at the young man with a smile at this time.

The young man replied with a false smile, "My fellow cultivator Bai, my family makes good wine, which is much better than that sold in the shops. Let's drink at my home!"

"Ah? Your family?" Xu Que's expression changed, and he said in surprise, "Brother Wang Ba, I remember all your family members have died! Your family was slaughtered! Even your ancestors were dug out of their graves to feed to the dogs! You don't have a family at all!"

"B*stard! All your family members were slaughtered!" The young man could not help but shout angrily as he tried to grab Xu Que.

Xu Que stepped back with a smile. Then he shouted seriously, "It turns out you are not Brother Wang Ba! D*mn! Who the h*ll are you? Why do you try to fool me by pretending you are Wang Ba?"

"My fellow apprentices, let's capture him together!" The young man shouted at this time.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

The next moment, more than ten cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage dashed toward Xu Que with magnificent kill intent.

Seeing that, onlookers stepped back to avoid being implicated in the combat. The bustling street became quiet immediately. More than ten cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage surrounded Xu Que and stared at him coldly.

When the onlookers felt they were far enough from the fight, they didn't walk away but chose to continue to enjoy the show as they talked about it.

"D*mn! Why are so many people trying to kill a young cultivator at the Half-Celestial Stage?"

"I remember fighting is strictly prohibited in Baihui City!"

"Unless the conflict is solved on the Life and Death Ring, anyone who dares to fight in the city will be killed immediately!"

"Are you insane? Apparently, these people are not ordinary cultivators! I bet they have bribed the competent authorities. Otherwise, they would never do it in broad daylight!"

"Hey! I know one of them. It seems they are from the Steal Sect!"

"The Steal Sect? What did that guy do? How could he be hunted down by the Steal Sect?"

"I don't care! This guy is quite handsome! I bet he is not a good guy! His death will be good news for me!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! A cultivator is attacked by more than ten cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage! How can he survive?"

The onlookers just wanted to enjoy the show and didn't care about what happened.

At this time, Xu Que was very calm. He looked at the cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage and said, shaking his head, "I was curious whether you were planning something big. It turns out your plan is quite simple. Just send a lot of people to kill me! This is so boring!"

"Humph! A cultivator at the Half-Celestial Stage dares to offend the Steal Sect! You are seeking death!"

"If you are clever enough, just go with us. If you dare to say something inappropriate, we will shut you up immediately!" The young man said as he looked at Xu Que coldly.

"Something inappropriate?" Xu Que said with a smile, "What do you mean? Oh, I remember, you mean those belly…"

"Shut up!" The young man shouted angrily to interrupt Xu Que, "You are seeking death! Kill him!"

Swish!

Instantly, more than ten cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage dashed forward and tried to kill Xu Que with all kinds of magic arts.

"Alas! Boring! I have to kill without any Experience Points again!" Xu Que sighed helplessly. Since the function of gaining experience through killing had been canceled, he always felt he suffered loss when he killed someone! Although he uttered those words, his counterattack was launched without any hesitation.

Boom!

The noise of his Firestorm Wheels echoed throughout this area. Xu Que had jumped up into the sky by stepping on the Firestorm Wheels.

Swish!

The next moment, he took out his sword. The powerful momentum of the Sword Spirit shocked the entire area.

Gasp!

Numerous onlookers gasped and opened their eyes wide.

"Two Celestial Artifacts?"

"How could a young cultivator at the Half-Celestial Stage have two Celestial Artifacts?"

"My God! Where does this guy come from?"

Many people exclaimed in surprise.

A cultivator at the Half-Celestial Stage could control two Celestial Artifacts smoothly. All the onlookers were shocked.

Xu Que ignored their reactions directly. He stomped on the Firestorm Wheels and became a phantom immediately.

Boom!

Along with a big bang, he disappeared under the eyes of the onlookers.

Swish!

Swash! After that, a strand of chilly light descended from the sky. Two cultivators of the Steal Sect who were standing together were cut in half before they realized what was happening. Their blood started to spill in the sky.

Instantly, all the onlookers became speechless. It seemed the air had solidified in this area, which was as quiet as a grave!

Everyone was dumbfounded and stunned on the spot!

Chapter 1156: Go Ahead and Try It!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"How…could this be?"

"He killed two cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage with one blow?"

"Holy sh*t!"

"This is totally impossible!"

At this moment, all the onlookers shouted in disbelief with their mouths wide open. They had thought that Xu Que would definitely be killed. None of them expected he could kill two cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage with a sword, which was an Inferior Celestial Artifact, by stepping on a low-grade flying Celestial Artifact. Even normal cultivators at the Earth Celestial Stage couldn't be as fast as he was.

The rest of the cultivators of the Steal Sect changed their expressions and stopped their attack. For the moment, none of them dared to come closer. Before coming to this place, the leader of the Steal Sect's branch had told them that Xu Que was not an ordinary cultivator at the Half-Celestial Stage. He had already managed to run away after stealing in front of so many people.

Therefore, they sent ten cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage to ensure the accomplishment of this task. They thought they could finish this job smoothly. But they never expected this guy would be so powerful!

At the same time, Xu Que appeared in the sky. He wiped off the blood on his sword as he looked at the rest of the cultivators of the Steal Sect. Then, in front of so many eyes, he shouted majestically, "As the invincible Act-Tough Saint, I have finished my merciless killing! Now, I have just one question—anyone else?"

Boom!

His deafening voice made everyone in the area widen their eyes. The cultivators of the Steal Sect were totally annoyed and eager to rush up and beat Xu Que up!

D*mn! He is so arrogant!

He has just killed two of us. How could he have the nerve to say he is invincible?

He even challenged all of us by asking "anyone else"!

Humph! This is so annoying!

How could a cultivator at the Medium Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage be so arrogant?

Many onlookers were also annoyed by Xu Que's manner. The young cultivator, who was leading the cultivators of the Steal Sect, shouted with darkened face, "Let's attack him together! As a cultivator at the Half-Celestial Stage, he can't use two Celestial Artifacts for very long!"

"Attack!" All of them shouted and ran toward Xu Que with their magic arts again.

The young cultivator's words inspired them. To use two Celestial Artifacts at the same time was highly exhausting and would be quite difficult for cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage like them, let alone cultivators at the Half-Celestial Stage. So they firmly believed that Xu Que would run out of his Celestial Core Power soon if they continued to attack him.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it seems I am too merciful! And I can���t intimidate you by just killing two of you!" Seeing that, Xu Que shook his head with a smile. But his smile disappeared soon. The next moment, cold light started to flash in his eyes. He shouted coldly, "You know nothing about my strength!"

Boom!

Xu Que's Firestorm Wheels made a deafening big bang. Then he jumped up into the sky and disappeared like a phantom!

Swish!

Swish!

Swish!

The next moment, the sky and the entire street were lit up by a dazzling sword beam. Xu Que played the Six Corporeal Forms with the sword strengthened by the Sword Spirit. Each blow was lethal. All the cultivators of the Steal Sect were covered by the thickly dotted sword shadows and had nowhere to run. Anyone who was cut by the sword which was strengthened by the Sword Spirit would be killed instantly.

Boom!

At last, Xu Que reappeared in the sky when his Firestorm Wheels stopped making any noise. All the cultivators of the Steal Sect fell to the ground in small pieces. The entire street was drenched in their blood. The entire area was dropped into a dead silence instantly. All the onlookers were dumbfounded.

When Xu Que killed two cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage with one blow, the onlookers were shocked. When they saw this scene, their minds went blank as if a divine thunder had exploded in their mind.

He was the only cultivator at the Half-Celestial Stage in this world who could do that! It would even have been quite difficult for sovereigns on the Heavenly Tripod List!

"I bet…this guy is definitely listed on the Heavenly Tripod List! And his rank is not low!" A girl in a red robe murmured in the crowds. She was Qin Susu! She was there when Xu Que was surrounded. At the beginning, Qin Susu was considering whether she should save Xu Que. Now she realized Xu Que's strength had gone beyond her imagination. His sword art would stun the world!

An old man in a red robe, who was standing beside Qin Susu, also said seriously, ���It is said that the Human List is the lowest threshold of the Heavenly Tripod List. The Half-List for cultivators at the Half-Celestial Stage has never been recognized yet. Now, it seems this is just hearsay!"

"Great-great-Grandpa, I think he must at least be in the top five of the Half-List!" Qin Susu said in a low voice. Then she frowned and shook her head, "But there is no mysterious sovereign among the top five of the Half-List!"

"Anyway, after this fight, this guy's name will be known throughout the world! This year, the Equipment Refining Convention will be held in Baihui City! Countless big shots will come to this place. We will get information about this guy soon!"

An old man in a white robe exclaimed, "Sword shadow covers the south streets; sword beam lit up Baihui City! This guy will have a bright future, for every oak has been an acorn!"

Sword shadow covers the south streets; sword beam lit up Baihui City! Qin Susu couldn't help but repeat that in her mind. Then she remembered she was teased by Xu Que before. So she said angrily, "Great-Grandpa, don't you know he had to run away from me! He called me elder sister."

"Called you elder sister?" The old man in the white robe was stunned a bit. Then he said as he looked at Qin Susu with a smile, "I'm afraid that is not enough! This young man will make great accomplishments in the future! Susu, you are not a little girl anymore. Your parents are planning to…"

"If you continue to say anymore, I will pull your beard apart!" Qin Susu said.

Hearing that, the old man in the white robe covered his beard hurriedly.

…..

At the same time, Xu Que had landed on the ground. He waved his hand to take away the Storage Rings of the cultivators of the Steal Sect. However, these cultivators were already quite poor. They only had about 100 Middle-grade Spiritual Crystals and some ordinary magic artifacts, which Xu Que sold to the System to get 10,000 Equipment Refining Essences.

"This is so boring! Is anyone else from the Steal Sect still here? Go back and tell your leader that you will land yourself in serious trouble if you continue to offend the Exploding Heavens Faction! Don't force me to kill more people! I mean it!" Xu Que talked tough in front of all the onlookers. Then he turned around and was about to leave.

"Stop!" Suddenly, a shout rang out from the crowd. Then Xu Que heard a commotion in the crowds. Ten guards in silver armor walked up and surrounded Xu Que. They were led by a guard at the Late Stage of the Human Celestial Stage. This guard said as he looked at Xu Que seriously, "Without permission, fighting is strictly prohibited in Baihui City. You've committed a serious crime by killing people in the street! Now, I order you to come with us and wait for the disposal of the City Governor!"

"Fighting is prohibited?" Xu Que, who was amused, said with a smile, "Why didn't you stop them when they tried to kill me?"

He had seen those guards were in this area when the cultivators of the Steal Sect attacked him. But those guards did nothing. Now when he killed all those cultivators, these guards rushed up to arrest him. Apparently, they targeted Xu Que deliberately.

"Just now we were patrolling other areas and didn't know what had happened here. Now the fact is you've killed people here. I don't care who started this fight first, you are guilty!" The leading guard shouted overbearingly.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, all load on the willing horse! Now, you are bullying me! It seems…I have to kill people again!" Seeing that, Xu Que didn't want to waste his words. He said with a cold smile as he waved the sword in his hand.

"B*stard! What are you going to do?" The leading guard shouted severely, "Don't get cocky because of your strength. Baihui City is ruled by Lord Ling who is the City Governor. You are powerful, but you are just at the Half-Celestial Stage. Lord Ling can kill you easily!"

"Really?" Xu Que said with a cold smile as he flipped his sword edge with his finger, "I will only say this once! If you dare to stop me or attack me, even if your Lord Zeng is here, I will also…"

Xu Que paused a bit. Then, his momentum was enhanced rapidly like an erupting volcano. The next moment, he shouted loudly, "…slaughter Baihui City! If you don't believe me, go ahead and try it!"

…..

Chapter 1157: Strange Rules

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Boom!

Xu Que's sonorous voice echoed in the area like the sound of a large bell.

The guards of Baihui City were intimidated immediately. None of them dared to come closer. Even the arrogant leading guard was terrified by Xu Que. He just stood there and didn't know what to say or do. Xu Que's words had totally surprised him. Xu Que's strength had impressed everyone here. If he didn't get the order from the City Governor, he wouldn't dare to arrest Xu Que.

He didn't expect Xu Que that wouldn't show his due respect to the City Governor. He even announced he would slaughter Baihui City in front of so many people, which intimidated all the people here.

"This guy…is too horrible!"

"How dare he say he will slaughter Baihui City?"

"I don't know why I have a feeling that he could really do that!"

"Where does this guy come from?"

All at once, many onlookers started to talk about Xu Que in a low voice.

"Enough!" Just at this time, a sonorous voice could be heard from the crowd. Then a man with red hair walked up. He was quite young and handsome. His chiseled face and red hair made him look charming.

"Young Master Ling!"

The guards greeted him immediately.

The onlookers were also surprised, "Ling Feng? Why is the son of the City Governor here?"

"I think I've figured out what has happened! I'm afraid this street fight is related to Ling Feng!"

"That's why he is here! The Equipment Refining Convention will be held in Baihui City. Lord Ling, the City Governor, will have no time to care about small issues. I'm afraid these guards were sent by Ling Feng!"

Many cultivators who had stayed in Baihui City for many years knew Ling Feng's style very well. So they figured out the reason behind this issue immediately. Actually, their speculation was right. Thanks to the relationship with Ling Feng, the Steal Sect had dared to kill Xu Que in broad daylight by ignoring the rules of the city. However, the result surprised all of them. Ten cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage were killed by Xu Que instantly. So Ling Feng decided to arrest Xu Que according to the rules of the city. But he didn't expect Xu Que would utter those tough words arrogantly, which even intimidated the guards. He had no choice but to handle it himself.

"Ling Feng?" Xu Que was surprised when he heard the talk of the onlookers. When he saw the red-haired young man in front of him, he was amused immediately. He could remember clearly that the underwear ordered by this Young Master Ling Feng were kept in the Storage Ring of the Steal Sect. Even the sword he used now, which was an Inferior Celestial Artifact, was ordered by Ling Feng! Now, it turned out that this Ling Feng had tried to arrest him deliberately.

However, Xu Que didn't expect the son of the City Governor would be on his extortion list!

"So, you are the Young Master Ling Feng! I've heard so much about you!" Xu Que said as he looked at Ling Feng with a thoughtful smile.

Of course, Ling Feng knew why Xu Que looked at him in this way. So he said seriously, "You'd better mind your words! I can forgive you about this. However, you should return me the sword and that box first!"

"Wow! Young Master Ling Feng, it seems you still have no idea about your current situation! Let me warn you! You'd better mind your words!" Xu Que said with an arrogant smile.

Ling Feng's face darkened and he clenched his teeth but said nothing. His reaction puzzled all the onlookers. According to the arrogant style of this young master, how could he be so humble?

The point was this young master was not a good-for-nothing! He ranked 66th on the Human List of the Heavenly Tripod List. Nobody dared to underestimate his strength, which was the foundation of his arrogant style. How could he keep calm at this moment?

"What do you want?" After keeping silent for a while, Ling Feng asked seriously.

"I don't want anything! Just stay out of my way and don't bother me! Or I will definitely suit the action to the words I uttered just now!" Xu Que said, shaking his head with a cold smile.

Now he was powerful enough to challenge cultivators at the Earth Celestial Stage. Even he couldn't defeat them, but he could escape safely after bombarding Baihui City with the Six-color Fiery Lotus.

"Don't cross the line! You can't go without handing in those things!" Ling Feng shook his head resolutely.

Although Xu Que was very powerful, he couldn't let Xu Que go in this way. That box was related to his reputation. Once Xu Que disclosed it to the public, he would lose all standing and reputation and even his father would be implicated by him.

"Hah, hah, it's easy! Just trade them for some Celestial Artifacts!" Xu Que said with a smile.

Those underpants were useless for him. So he decided to trade them for something useful!

"I don't have any Celestial Artifact! Otherwise…I wouldn't have ordered the sword in your hand!" Ling Feng said seriously, "But I will give you an opportunity to have a fair fight with me!"

"What?

You want to have a fair fight with me?"

Xu Que was quite happy to hear that. But he said, shaking his head, "First, you are not qualified to give me an opportunity. Second, why should I have a fair fight with you?"

"You don't dare, right?"Ling Feng replied directly.

Xu Que was annoyed. "D*mn! How dare you defy me? I know you are trying to goad me! And I will take your bait!"

"OK, I will give you an opportunity to have a fair fight with me! How should we fight?"

Xu Que shouted immediately, "Let's solve it on the Life and Death Ring!"

Ling Feng said as he pointed at the downtown of the city, "The Life and Death Ring has three rules! First, people on that platform will fight to the death, and nobody is allowed to intervene! Second, use of Celestial Artifacts is not allowed! Third, people on that platform could only use the magic arts chosen by the Life and Death Pavilion!"

"This is your so-called fair fight, right?" Xu Que raised his eyebrows and said with a cold smile. Apparently, Ling Feng was trying to stop him from using his Celestial Artifacts.

"Don't worry! I will have my cultivation stage changed and only fight you at the Medium Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage!" Ling Feng said calmly.

His words confused Xu Que. Is this red-haired guy really going to have a fair fight with me? However, the rules of theLife and Death Ring are quite weird! The third rule is so weird that only the magic arts chosen by the Life and Death Pavilion can be used during the fight!

"My younger brother, my proposal is don't agree with that! Otherwise, you will absolutely be killed!" A familiar voice came into Xu Que's ears at this time. Xu Que, who was surprised, turned around and saw Qin Susu was standing in the crowds with a smile.

"Why now? Do you think I can't defeat him?"

Xu Que asked, sending her a message.

"Nonsense! I know you could only kill cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage when you use those two Celestial Artifacts! Without them and your magic arts, it will be extremely difficult for you to defeat him no matter how gifted you are! Because Ling Feng's advantage is his physique, which has been toughened, and is more powerful than most cultivators!" Qin Susu explained by sending a message.

She didn't underestimate Xu Que's strength, because he could control two Celestial Artifacts at the same time. However, the rules of the Life and Death Ring were special. Those who had a powerful physique would have a great advantage. So, she reminded Xu Que because she thought his odds were very low!

His physique was toughened before? Hearing that, Xu Que's eyes lit up.

His physique was more powerful than most people's. Before rising immortally to the World of Near Celestial, his God of Hell's Compulsion was further enhanced. After being tortured by the winds in the Void several times, his physique got very tough. Now he could withstand the attack of cultivators at full power! At the thought of this, he ignored Qin Susu.

Then he turned to Ling Feng and asked with a smile, "What is the bet?"

"If I win, you return the Celestial Artifact and the box to me! If I lose, I will make an apology to you personally!�� Ling Feng replied.

Puff!

Xu Que said disdainfully, "An apology for my Celestial Artifact? Stop your daydreaming!"

"Then, what do you want?" Ling Feng asked.

"It's simple! If you lose, you should make an apology to me and allow me to go to the mansion of the City Governor freely. Don't worry, I just want to have a look to satisfy my curiosity. I won't take a needle or a piece of thread from it!" Xu Que promised, patting his chest.

Ling Feng looked at Xu Que suspiciously. He thought Xu Que would never win in the fight. So he said, nodding his head, "OK!"

"Great! Then, it is a deal!" Xu Que smiled with satisfaction.

Then they jumped into the sky and dashed toward the Life and Death Ring in the downtown area of the city. Seeing that, the onlookers decided to enjoy the show by following them.

The Life and Death Ring had been set up for many years. Almost nobody dared to use it for its weird rules went against most people.

More important, many people knew Ling Feng spent a lot of time toughening his physique. Even though his Cultivation Stage was lowered to the Medium Stage of the Hal-Celestial Stage, his physique wouldn't be weakened a bit. However, they were also impressed by Xu Que's strength. So the onlookers were quite curious about the result of the fight and wanted to enjoy the show.

Qin Susu and the old man in the white robe couldn't help but shake their heads when they saw Xu Que and Ling Feng.

"This young man is too reckless!"

"Humph! I reminded him out of good intentions. But he ignored my suggestion. After signing the contract of using the Life and Death Ring, even if he could survive this time, he will be teleported to this platform when Ling Feng wants to have a fight with him again if he chooses to stay in Baihui City in the future!"

"Forget it, Susu. Let's also go there and have a look. This guy is quite gifted and handsome! It is really a pity for him to die here. I think I can save him this time, so that he could owe us, which could be helpful for us in the future!"

"Grandpa, I really don't think your excuses could hold water! If you dare to introduce him to my parents, I swear I will pick out all your beard and hair!"

"Nonsense! I am not that kind of person!"

Chapter 1158: The Exploding Heavens Faction Is Awesome

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"At this moment, in the downtown of Baihui City, Xu Que and Ling Feng were standing in front of a round stone platform the diameter of which was about 100 yards. This platform had thickly dotted spell formations on its edges. The one who dropped off of the stone platform would be deemed the loser of the fight.

"My fellow cultivator, let me tell you something first. When we go up to the top of this platform, a Life and Death Pavilion will appear, where magic arts can drop out randomly. Then we will have one hour to acquire the magic art we want. One hour later, the Life and Death Pavilion will disappear, which means the fight between us will begin!"

At this time, Ling Feng introduced the rules of the Life and Death Ring to Xu Que. It seemed as if he was trying to let Xu Que know that the fight between them was absolutely fair.

"Also, if either of us uses the magic arts we've acquired before, the spell Array on the Life and Death Ring will be activated, which is as powerful as the attack of a cultivator at the Heaven Celestial Stage with full power!" Ling Feng added something at last.

Xu Que said with a smile, "Anything else?

"Once we step onto this platform and carve our names in it, if both of us are in this city in the future, either of us could challenge the other one at any time. No matter where the other one is, he will be teleported to the Life and Death Ring immediately!" Ling Feng said calmly after a short hesitation.

"Anything else?" Xu Que repeated.

Ling Feng frowned and said, shaking his head, "No! Actually, I don't know where you come from. However, you can find the Life and Death Ring in almost all big ancient cities in this world. The rank in the Heavenly Tripod List is based on the result of the fights held in these platforms. According to your strength, I'm sure you are on the Heavenly Tripod List and should know the rules of the Life and Death Ring, unless you've just risen immortally to the World of Near Celestials!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, anything else?" Xu Que asked once more.

Ling Feng, who couldn't suppress his irritation, said angrily, "What do you mean?"

"Are you insane? I don't need your explanations and introductions! The onlookers might think you are bluffing! I mean, have you finished spouting your useless nonsense? If so, we can fight now!" Xu Que shouted wickedly.

"Humph!" Ling Feng snorted as he jumped up onto the top of the stone platform.

Then, a faint halo appeared on the platform. From the halo, people could see some words—Ling Feng from Baihui City. Apparently, this was not the first time for him to fight in the Life and Death Ring.

Xu Que smiled a bit. Then he also jumped up onto the platform.

Whoosh!

When he landed on the platform, a blank halo appeared in front of him. Seeing that, all the onlookers were stunned, including Ling Feng.

"No name?"

"Holy sh*t! This guy hasn't fought in the Life and Death Ring before!"

"Indeed, this is the first time for him! Otherwise, his name would appear in the halo!"

"Those mysterious cultivators on the Heavenly Tripod List don't want to reveal their names. But they use some special symbols to replace their name. This guy has nothing in the halo, which means this is definitely the first time for him to step into the Life and Death Ring!"

"D*mn! No wonder he dares to challenge Ling Feng, because he is a fearless and ignorant person!"

Many people were discussing this in surprise.

Qin Susu and the old man in the white robe, who were also standing in the crowds, were surprised by this scene.

"As expected, he is not one of the mysterious sovereigns on the Heavenly Tripod List. Otherwise, he is definitely powerful enough to enter the top five of the Half-List!" Qin Susu said seriously.

"It seems I didn't back the wrong horse! I guess this guy has just risen immortally. His talents and strength are extraordinary! He is the perfect candidate!" The old man in the white robe said delightedly as if he had found something precious.

"Grandpa, this is my last warning! Don't get any naughty ideas!" Qin Susu, who sensed something was wrong, warned again.

…..

At the same time, Xu Que was looking at the blank halo in front of him. Then he started to write something in it with his Celestial Core Power.

"The Exploding Heavens Faction is awesome?" Seeing that, the onlookers were totally confused.

"Is The Exploding Heavens Faction is awesome a name?"

"How could someone use awesome in his name?"

"And what the hell is this Exploding Heavens Faction?

I've never heard of it!"

Many people were talking in surprise.

"Is your name The Exploding Heavens Faction is awesome?"

In the Life and Death Ring, Ling Feng also asked as he looked at Xu Que with puzzlement, and said, "I remember your name is Bai Zhantang, right?"

"It's none of your business! Now my name is The Exploding Heavens Faction Is Awesome!" Xu Que said proudly.

Ling Feng snorted. "I don't care what your name is! I just hope you will honor your words when you lose later!"

"Heh, heh. Me? Lose? Sorry, the Exploding Heavens Faction has never lost before!" Xu Que said with a cold smile.

Boom!

Just at this time, a dull sound came from the Life and Death Ring. Then the Void was distorted to open a big door. Nobody knew what was hiding behind that door.

Swish!

Suddenly, an air-rending sound rang out. Dozens of lights flew out from the door and started to fly around Xu Que and Ling Feng rapidly. Ling Feng squinted his eyes slightly. Then he grabbed one strand of light with his hand.

Patter!

That light was stopped and became a jade slip in his hand. Then the onlookers saw the words on it —The Amethyst Blaze Lightsaber Sword Art!

Wow! The onlookers exclaimed, "It is a sword art! It seems Ling Feng has a great chance to win this time!"

"The Life and Death Pavilion always throws out strange but lousy magic arts. Only those blade or sword arts are effective in a fight!"

"Ha, hah, it is hard to estimate the result if both of them get a sword art. After all, the sword arts can be divided on different levels!"

"I guess the sword art obtained by Ling Feng is pretty good! Now let's see what that 'The Exploding Heavens Faction Is Awesome' could get!"

People started to look at Xu Que.

Xu Que was also staring at those lights flying around. When he found it was impossible to see them clearly, he didn't want to waste his time. So he asked the System to activate the Lucky Aura for him!

Whoosh!

The next moment, he waved his hand and grabbed a strand of light.

Patter! The light became a jade slip and fell into his hand. Then he saw the words on it—The Drunken Immortal Fist!

Seeing that, the onlookers were puzzled.

"A fist art?"

"Alas! This guy is doomed!"

"A fist art can never defeat a sword art!"

"But the name of this fist art is quite weird for there is an Immortal in it!"

"So what? Do you mean any magic art with an immortal in the name is powerful?"

"Exactly! If the immortal is deleted, it will become the drunken fist! Hah, hah, how hilarious! How could a man fight when he is drunk?"

Many people laughed as they looked at Xu Que with sympathy, thinking he was really unlucky.

Ling Feng said as he looked at Xu Que coldly, "This is the will of Heaven! You still have time to admit defeat. Otherwise, you will end up in a bad way later!"

"Holy sh*t!" Hearing that, Xu Que was annoyed. "I dare you to say that again!"

Ling Feng didn't want to annoy Xu Que for he was worried Xu Que would eat his words when he was defeated in the fight later. So he tried to convince Xu Que to give up. He didn't expect Xu Que to get so upset.

The onlookers were also embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

Ling Feng let out a sigh. "I don't want to waste my words on you!" After saying that, he started to acquire the magic art in his jade slip.

According to the rules, they had one hour to acquire the magic art they had obtained. After that, the Life and Death Ring would be activated officially and would no longer restrict their Celestial Core Power. Before stepping onto the platform, Ling Feng had lowered his Cultivation Stage to the Medium Stage of the Half-Celestial Stage. After obtaining his magic art, he didn't want to waste his time on Xu Que. The more he could acquire in one hour, the higher the possibility he could win in the upcoming fight!

"Humph! How despicable you are! How dare you insult me?" Xu Que shouted again. However, it seemed he didn't want to acquire the jade slip in his hand immediately. In fact, when he obtained the jade slip, he had asked the System to acquire it. He didn't need to acquire it himself. Now, the Drunken Immortal Fist had been stored in his memory! However, this Drunken Immortal Fist was more or less similar with the Drunken Fist he knew. The more drunk he was, the more powerful this fist art would be. It seemed there was no upper limit for the power of the Drunken Immortal Fist! If he could keep conscious, the more drunken he was, the more powerful this fist art would be!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it seems I need to make some preparations first!" Xu Que laughed as he activated the System. "System, what do you have in the store? I need some hard liquor!"

"Wow, it seems this Ten-Millennium Monkey Liquor is pretty good! I will buy several cases!"

"The Ten-Millennium Maotai? After so long a time, is it still drinkable? Forget it! I will buy ten cases!"

…..

Chapter 1159: Renowned in the World of Near Celestials

At this time, in the Life and Death Ring, Ling Feng, who was sitting on the ground with his legs crossed, placed the jade slip on the front of his forehead to acquire the sword art in it attentively.

Xu Que threw away the jade slip and started to place many liquor cases on the platform from his System package.

Seeing that, the onlookers were totally dumbfounded.

"What is he going to do?"

"Has he lost his mind?

Why is he moving those cases instead of acquiring his fist art?"

"Don't tell me he has admitted defeat!"

"Alas! I would do that for a fist art could never rival a sword art!"

"Right!"

"Wait! Do you smell something?"

"Liquor?"

Gasp! "Where does this pure liquor fragrance come from?"

"Holy sh*t! Look! All those cases he took out are liquor!"

"My God! Is he really going to drink liquor on the platform?"

"Does it mean it is related to his fist art? I guess he needs to get drunk before using that fist art!"

"No way! This guy hasn't acquired the fist art from the jade slip yet! How could he start to drink liquor now?"

Many people exclaimed in surprise.

Qin Susu was also puzzled, "What the h*ll is this guy going to do?"

"Hey, my dear granddaughter, why are you so nervous about him? Does it mean you've changed your mind?" The old man in the white robe lit up his eyes.

Qin Susu widened her eyes, "Grandpa, do you still want to keep your beard?"

"Of course!" The old man in the white robe stepped back as he covered his beard hurriedly.

….

At this moment, Xu Que had started to drink liquor in front of the onlookers of the Life and Death Ring. With the help of the God of Hell's Compulsion, his drinking capacity was larger than most people's even though he didn't drink liquor every day! He felt nothing after drinking two bottles of Ten-Millennium Monkey Liquor. After drinking two bottles of Ten-Millennium Maotai, he started to feel a little dizziness.

"Tsk, tsk, this is the right feeling!"

Xu Que was quite happy for he felt that if he used the Drunken Immortal Fist now, it would be more powerful than if he didn't drink any liquor. He could sense a special power in his body, which could erupt at any time. At the same time, a small window appeared in the System's interface—"Current drunkenness: Level 2″.

"I see! It turns out drunkenness is accumulated in this way!"

Xu Que was quite happy to see that. So he picked up another bottle of Ten-Millennium Maotai and started to pour it into his mouth.

Gurgle-gurgle-gurgle!

Gurgle-gurgle-gurgle!

One bottle!

Two bottles!

Three bottles…

When he had drunk all those Ten-Millennium Maotais, his face was totally red and he could barely stand.

The drunkenness recorded in the System had reached level 11!

"What? Why are so many ones in front of me?

I guess I see four ones here!

No way! I must be dazzled! Now, the drunkenness is only level 1! I need to reach level 100!"

Xu Que murmured drunkenly. Then he looked at the onlookers and shouted, "Liquor! Who has liquor?"

The onlookers were dumbfounded and didn't know what to do.

This guy got so drunk in less than one hour. All the onlookers had figured out the result of this fight!

"Liquor! Let's enjoy while we still can! Hah, hah, hah! Let me drink another bottle! What? Where is my liquor? Why is my liquor still unserved?" Xu Que was still looking for more liquor although he was already drunk.

"I have liquor! Here you are!" Suddenly, someone shouted from the crowd and threw several bottles to Xu Que.

Xu Que received those bottles immediately. Then he removed the lids and started to drink without any hesitation.

Gulp!

Gulp!

Ding! "Warning! Fake liquor is detected! Is the Host going to activate the Automatic Recovery Function?"

The System's warning tone came in.

However, Xu Que was so drunk at this time that he almost forgot everything. He ignored the System's warning and continued to pour liquor into his mouth.

Gurgle-gurgle-gurgle!

Bang!

When Xu Que had drunk up all the fake liquors, all the bottles in his arms fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

"Eh…wait! How many zeros do I have here?" Xu Que burped and continued to count the level of drunkenness in front of him. Then he found a lot of zeros. It was quite difficult for him to see clearly. In fact, his drunkenness had reached level 100!

This was a horrible figure. Once he used the fist art, it would be extremely destructive!

Luckily, Xu Que's physique was tough. Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to withstand such a high drunkenness level. However, the last bit of sense had disappeared from his mind. Now, he was just playing the drunkard because of his excited brain cells!

Boom!

At the same time, Ling Feng, who was in cultivation, opened his eyes.

One hour had passed.

I've mastered it! This sword art is more powerful than I expected! I will definitely win this fight!

A confident smile appeared on Ling Feng's face. However, he was surprised the next moment, "What is this smell? Why is the smell of liquor so strong here?"

After saying that, he frowned at Xu Que who was not far away with a lot of empty liquor bottles on the ground.

"My fellow cultivator, did you spend the last hour drinking liquor here?" He asked seriously.

"Eh? Who is that? Who is talking to me? Do you have liquor?"

Xu Que turned around abruptly and almost fell to the ground. His legs barely kept his balance.

"Humph! One hour has passed. I've given you an opportunity to have a fair fight with me! If you don't respect it, don't blame my cruelty!" Seeing him, Ling Feng was quite delighted. Ling Feng knew Xu Que had lost control of his mind. In this state, he would definitely be killed. If Ling Feng could kill Xu Que, he would obtain the Celestial Artifact and keep that secret from disclosure!

"Hah, hah! This is the will of Heaven! B*stard, just die!" Ling Feng said with his trademark arrogant laughter. After that, he took out a sword that was a magic artifact. Then he waved the sword to turn it into a strand of purple light, which dashed toward Xu Que abruptly.

Seeing that, all the onlookers couldn't help but shake their heads.

"I didn't expect this guy would be killed in this way!"

"I thought he was powerful enough to escape even if he couldn't win this fight. I didn't expect he would try to seek death by drinking so much liquor!"

The old man in the white robe and Qin Susu also shook their heads helplessly.

"Alas! I think I should save him, so that he could owe us this time!" The old man in the white robe said as he was about to walk up and stop Ling Feng. He believed he was senior enough to stop Ling Feng from killing Xu Que.

However, before the old man could say anything, Xu Que, who was staggering, opened his eyes wide and looked at the purple light in front of him.

"Zi Xia? Zi Xia, is that you?" Xu Que shouted in surprise. Then he lurched forward and appeared in front of Ling Feng, who was dashing forward rapidly.

Clang!

Along with a crisp sound of metal, the sword art used by Ling Feng was interrupted.

The whole area was dead silent. Ling Feng was stunned. Nobody saw what had happened. Xu Que, who was not far away one second ago, appeared in front of Ling Feng. He even held Ling Feng's sword blade with his hand without getting cut!

"Where is Zi Xia? D*mn! Where is Zi Xia? F*ck! Where did you hide my Zi Xia?"

After holding the sword blade, Xu Que interrupted the sword art. The purple light disappeared. He was annoyed and started to vent his anger on Ling Feng.

"I…I…" Ling Feng was totally shocked and terrified at this moment.

He couldn't figure out how Xu Que had interrupted his sword art. What the h*ll happened?

"D*mn! B*stard! Give me Zi Xia!" Xu Que raised his fist as he looked at Ling Feng angrily. Then he started to punch Ling Feng's face.

"Oh, no!"

Ling Feng's expression changed immediately. He dropped the sword in his hand and stepped back.

Another dumbfounding scene occurred. Xu Que's staggering body disappeared on the spot. The next moment, he appeared in front of Ling Feng again. Then his fist landed on Ling Feng's face heavily.

Bang!

With a dull sound, Ling Feng was blown out directly.

"Zi Xia, give me Zi Xia!" Xu Que, who was babbling, appeared in front of Ling Feng again. He continued to punch Ling Feng with his fists.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Instantly, the fight in the Life and Death Ring became a one-sided punching show.

All onlookers were dumbfounded for Ling Feng didn't get any chance to fight back. He was just flying back and forth on the platform. Whenever he was blown off and was about to land on the ground, Xu Que reappeared in front of him to continue the show.

Bang!

At last, Ling Feng was knocked out of the Life and Death Ring unconscious. His head was swollen like a pig's head. Half of his red hair had disappeared. The scene was quite horrible!

The entire area was dead silent . All the onlookers were terrorized. None of them expected the fight would end in this way.

It surprised the old man in the white robe. It also surprised Qin Susu.

Flop!

At this time, Xu Que, who was standing on the platform, fell to the ground and fell asleep after murmuring "Zi Xia" again.

Whoosh!

Almost at the same time, a halo with a line of words appeared on the Life and Death Ring—The Exploding Heavens Faction Is Awesome, win!

Boom!

Then a glowing list appeared in the sky above Baihui City!

The Heavenly Tripod List (Half-Celestial Stage):

No.1: Li Xiaoran

No. 2: Ye Guhen

No. 3: Yun Baichuan

No. 4: The Exploding Heavens Faction Is Awesome;

…..

The newly updated Half-List of the Heavenly Tripod List was publicized in this world. The list appeared in all the ancient cities in the Zhen Yuan Celestial Realm, even in the Earth Continent, the Heaven Continent, and the Xuanhuang Continent—the entire World of Near Celestials!

At this moment, The Exploding Heavens Faction Is Awesome was renowned in the World of Near Celestials!
