Chapter 1330: Come Out for Me
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The Heaven Palace Academy's courtyard was located in the middle of a group of mountains, floating atop the clouds.
As far as the eye could see, it seemed like an auspicious land surrounded by countless mountains, and these mountains resembled stars clustered around the moon and looking up at it. However, the ancestral tomb's mountain was an exception, as it was unusually high. This mountain wasn't beneath the Heaven Palace Academy like the others. It seemed as if the academy leaned against it.
Xu Que's group left the ancestral tomb and soared up into the sky. They flew toward the Heaven Palace Academy up in the clouds.
The Heaven Palace Academy was faintly discernible among the clouds and mist, and many archaic buildings could be seen there, as well as all the Heaven Palace Academy's disciples who wore white clothes. Those disciples steered their magical weapons and flew through the air with their clothes fluttering in the wind. They seemed like true celestials!
The arrival of Xu Que's group attracted the attention of the disciples guarding the mountain.
"Stop, this is a strategic location of the Heaven Palace Academy's back mountain. Stop quickly," someone shouted sharply.
"Why the h*ll should we stop? Open your eyes wide and have a clear look at us. The Heaven Palace Academy's Deputy Dean, Xu Que's father, has arrived, so why don't you ask all the disciples to assemble here and greet him?" Buttface put both his paws on his waist and shouted imposingly. His sonorous voice reverberated everywhere!
The Heaven Palace Academy's disciples in the vicinity were taken aback for a moment, before a raucous noise arose among them.
"F*ck! That dog has come once again."
"There is Xu Que's father, they have all come over."
"Ha, ha, the underworld has no gate, yet you have still intruded into it. Our Heaven Palace Academy has put out an arrest warrant for you, yet you still dared to walk right into our trap. Why don't you quickly surrender?"
Many people came out of the Heaven Palace Academy and shouted at Xu Que's group that was still up in the air. They were ready to attack at any moment!
According to Xu Que's former conduct, if he faced such a situation he would first fight to put those people down, before revealing his status to show off.
But since a large number of the Heaven Palace Academy's members revealed their hostility to Xu Que, Xu Que could clearly detect that the two souls in the Firestorm Wheels had started getting restless, and they really wanted to rush out to fight. Xu Que was scared by this situation!
"Stop, stop, stop! D*mn it! Two ancestors, please don't come out! I have only a little amount of Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines, and it isn't enough for you to play around as you want."
Xu Que quickly used a Magic Art to seal the Firestorm Wheels. Even though Xu Que was aware that such a Magic Art was useless against the two souls, it could still stall them for a moment. So in that moment he quickly took out the badge given to him by Li Qinghe and raised it high.
"You are so presumptuous! I am the Heaven Palace Academy's new Deputy Dean. You have already seen my Dean Badge, so why don't you quickly kneel down," Xu Que shouted in a deep voice, while a great imposing manner emanated from him, and swept the surroundings. It rivaled the Heavenly Might's descent!
Upon witnessing such a badge, the large crowd of the Heaven Palace Academy's disciples was dumbfounded, and they found this matter hard to believe.
"Deputy Dean's badge?"
"Oh, my God, is it genuine?"
"The Dean's personal imprint is on it, and its aura is compatible with this old man. It's obvious that it's the Dean who issued it. No one could falsify such a matter."
"What…what is happening?"
"Didn't we put out an arrest order for him previously? Why did he become our Deputy Dean in such a short while?"
All the disciples wore startled looks and regarded each other with dismay. They were dumbfounded and couldn't make sense of the current situation.
But they restrained their killing intent, and that was why the two souls in the Firestorm Wheels calmed down once again.
At this moment, Xu Que heaved a sigh of relief and spoke coldly, "You should listen to me clearly. From this day onward, I am the Deputy Dean. Once Dean Lin comes back, he will surely explain everything clearly to you. But if someone doesn't believe it and disrespects his superior, he will be killed."
Xu Que's voice reverberated everywhere and fell upon everyone's ears. It was as deafening as the rumble of divine thunder.
The numerous Heaven Palace Academy disciples all wore startled looks.
COUGH! COUGH! "Elder…Deputy Dean Xu? According to the Heaven Palace Academy's rules, if someone disrespects his superiors, he would just have to suffer ten strikes of a Lightning Rod and sit in meditation while facing the wall for two years. His crime isn't so grave that he deserves capital punishment," a disciple shouted.
"Presumptuous! You still dare to talk back?"
Xu Que's eyes swept the region and looked at that disciple. He said in a deep voice, "From this day onward, the academy's rules are changed. If one disrespects his superiors, he will be killed. You already disrespected me a while ago, but since I have just assumed the Deputy Dean position, I will give you another chance. But next time, you will be punished severely."
"Understood!" Upon hearing Xu Que's words, the disciple's face turned pale, and he quickly knelt on the ground.
When the other people witnessed this, they frowned, but some of them still knelt down and saluted Xu Que.
At this moment, everyone believed clearly that Xu Que's status as Deputy Dean was genuine. After all, no one could counterfeit the badge because it had the Dean's newly carved imprint that was compatible with Xu Que's aura. This demonstrated that the Dean had issued the badge, because if he hadn't, the imprint wouldn't be compatible with Xu Que's aura.
Such factors were enough to demonstrate that Xu Que's status as Deputy Dean was genuine, and no one here dared to question him.
But there were still a group of young disciples who stood expressionlessly, before they turned around slowly and left.
It could be easily discerned that those people were prideful, and they were surely some great factions' descendants. They wouldn't easily kneel to other people. This was especially the case since Xu Que, through the use of the Disguise Puppet, had the appearance of a sickly old man at the Half-Celestial Stage, even though Xu Que's true cultivation level had reached the Earth Celestial Medium Stage.
This was also the reason why many Heaven Palace Academy disciples were confused. Many thoughts and questions were going through their heads. "What was going on with the Dean? Why had he suddenly assigned another Deputy Dean, and why to a criminal wanted by the Heaven Palace Academy?"
"Didn't it seem as if they had just insulted and disgraced themselves?"
"Hold on, this matter is too fishy. Could it be that Elder Xu is really a Celestial King?" Someone spoke with surprise.
After all, rumors had spread that Xu Que's father was a Celestial King or some such being at a higher stage, while Elder Xu had stated that he had destroyed the Heaven Palace Sect. However, once the Heaven Palace Academy had exposed Xu Que's lies, the crowd suspected that probably all the information about his power was also fake.
Now this old man had currently become the Heaven Palace Academy's Deputy Dean, and the Heaven Palace Academy disciples realized that something was weird about this affair. This was why they had become more solemn and serious!
It seemed from the current situation that this old man was likely a Celestial King, or a being at a higher stage. If this hadn't been the case, the Dean wouldn't have invited him to assume the Deputy Dean position. Moreover, this old man had suddenly emerged from the back mountain.
"What are you looking at? D*mn! In the past, I have said that I would come back one day. Now, I have come back, and some people will suffer a miserable fate."
At this moment, Buttface glared at the numerous disciples and sneered coldly.
Duan Jiude's eyes flickered with a cold glint, and he said in a deep voice, "I will state several names, and everyone mentioned by me had better come to see me today, or else… He, he, the consequences will be dreadful"
After Duan Jiude spoke, he uttered several strange names.
Xu Que was taken aback. Buttface and Duan Jiude seldom acted in this manner, and it seemed as if they had indeed been bullied too much by the Heaven Palace Academy despite Jiang Hongyan's protection. It seemed as if they didn't have Jiang Hongyan, those two guys would have suffered an even more miserable fate.
"I also have to point out some names. Bao Jiang, Zhang Liyun, Li Huan. Come over here. If you don't do so, I will destroy even your homes," Buttface roared loudly to give vent to his anger.
At this moment, the disciples all descended into silence. Some of them wore expressionless looks because this affair wasn't related to them, and some of them looked frightened and restless, while there were still others who took joy in their comrades' misfortunes.
F*ck!
Xu Que was even more startled, and he spoke with surprise, "Buttface, how did they bully you in the past? Why are you so angry?"
"Humph, when I mention this matter, I can't help but get angry and have the desire to kill people. F*ck! Do you know how outrageous they were?"
Buttface wore an angry look and pointed at the people below him as he spoke, "They have bullied an honest and good person."

"….." Xu Que, Mo Junchen, and Liu Jingning were totally embarrassed by Buttface and Duan Jiude's words, and they were thinking to themselves, "Did they bully honest men? How could Buttface have the nerve to say that? Maybe he misunderstood the meaning of honest men! How could Buttface and Duan Jiude even be considered as being honest? Buttface is not even a man!"
"Don't misunderstand me! I said they bullied someone who was a new friend of Mr. Duan and me. This guy was very nice, honest, and thoughtful! And this honest man was killed when he was providing cover for me and Mr. Duan Jiude!" After saying that, Buttface said as he clenched his teeth angrily, "At that time, I gave my word to him that I would come back to avenge him!"
"Mr. Buttface, what you just said is incorrect! At that time, you said you would come back with reinforcements to save him when you were about to run away!" Duan Jiude reminded Buttface.
Hearing this, Buttface said, waving his paw, "Don't dwell on these small details. Anyway, I've come back with reinforcements now!"
TSK! TSK! TSK! Xu Que couldn't stop shaking his head after hearing this story, as he thought to himself, "Who was this pathetic honest man? No, I'm afraid he was not an honest man but a fool! I bet he didn't expect to lose his life when he tried to protect Buttface and Duan Jiude! He was way too honest!"
"It was quite urgent at that time. If that young friend hadn't helped us, I think Buttface would have died. And I am also quite sure that I would definitely have been killed!" Duan Jiude said seriously at this time.
Xu Que nodded his head and stopped asking questions. According to the reactions of Buttface and Duan Jiude, they were quite angry and really wanted to do something to make up for that man.
Xu Que sighed as he glanced at the apprentices of the Heaven Palace Academy, "This is really unexpected! I didn't think that some apprentices of our academy would be so lunatic that they could even kill their fellow apprentices! I hope those who were called out just now could step out consciously. Don't do anything stupid!"
However, these apprentices just stared at each other, and nobody stepped out.
Some of those who had been called by Buttface and Duan Jiude were here. But they remained indifferent and just stood there with their hands crossed in front of their chests calmly.
"F*ck! How dare you disobey the order of the Deputy Dean? Are you going to rebel?" Buttface shouted angrily.
Then he turned around and said to Xu Que, as he pointed at three apprentices, "Little…ahem, Xu Que's father, that's the three of them! Those who were called out by Duan Jiude are just minions! The three of them are the masterminds!"
Xu Que fixed his eyes on those who were being pointed at by Buttface's paw. He found those three people were looking at him thoughtfully. It seemed they were not afraid of Xu Que at all.
At this time, someone sent a silent message to Xu Que. "Deputy Dean, you don't understand the situation because you have just come to our academy. Bao Jian, Zhang Liyun ,and Lin Huan have extraordinary backgrounds! They are from different Celestial Realms. Their family or sect has entered the top ten in their Celestial Realms respectively. So I suggest you play down this issue!" That was the end of the message.
Xu Que discovered the one who had sent the message. It was a woman who was over 30 years old, or even older. She had reached the medium stage of the Heaven Celestial Stage. Her robe was also different than the robes of ordinary apprentices, which meant she could be a teacher or a member of staff in the academy.
She reminded Xu Que of what was what by sending the message because she was worried that the Deputy Dean and the Heaven Palace Academy were unable to back down with good grace if this issue became significant.
After all, it was just a small issue. Buttface and Duan Jiude were not wounded. After negotiating with the three families, they could ask the three sovereigns to make an apology and some amends. Nobody wanted to see big trouble caused by this small issue.
Although the Heaven Palace Academy was quite large, it was not the most powerful sect in this world and it wasn't able to crush all the rest of the sects. So it didn't want to make enemies too easily.
However, the woman misjudged the situation. If she hadn't reminded Xu Que, Xu Que would have punished those three people by leaving them to Buttface and Duan Jiude.
After being reminded by the woman, Xu Que made up his mind to make a big noise about this issue. Why did he agree to act as the Deputy Dean of the Heaven Palace Academy? The answer was that he wanted to make trouble at his will! And this was a perfect opportunity to do it!
Immediately, Xu Que said, as he glanced seriously at those three sovereigns, "Bao Jian, Zhang Liyun, and Lin Huan, you refused to correct your mistake and you ignored my order! Great! I want to see your parents!"
"See their parents?" Hearing this, the rest of the people in this area were stunned and had the same thought. The woman who had reminded Xu Que through the silent message was also shocked by what she had heard. Bao Jian, Zhang Liyun, and Lin Huan were also slightly surprised. Then they started to look at Xu Que sarcastically.
"Deputy Dean, are you sure you want to see our parents?"
"Hah! Hah! I suggest you should get some suggestions from the Dean first. If people of our families really come here, I'm afraid you will have to quit your job!"
"I planned to show you some respect. Since you don't want it, just don't blame our rudeness!"
The three of them sneered arrogantly at this time. They had heard that Xu Que's father might be someone who was more powerful than a Celestial King. Now, however, they were sure that this possibility was very low.
If Xu Que's father was really that powerful, how could he just be the Deputy Dean of the Heaven Palace Academy? He would be powerful enough to rule the Heaven Palace Academy and even the entire Ziwei Celestial Realm!
So, they thought they had figured out the truth. The old man, who might be very powerful, couldn't be as powerful as the Dean. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to act as the Deputy Dean! Therefore, their families didn't need to be afraid of him. Also, they firmly believed that the Heaven Palace Academy would never become an enemy of their families just for this small issue. Nobody could make such a stupid decision!
Many apprentices in this area also had the same idea. Someone shook his head secretly because the new Deputy Dean would end up being humiliated. Someone sneered and was planning to laugh at Xu Que.
Nobody believed this issue could cause big trouble. After all, this new Deputy Dean had no right to make decisions for the Heaven Palace Academy. They knew the new Deputy Dean was trying to build his authority. However, he had found the wrong objects.
The correct way would be to punish the minions mentioned by Duan Jiude. Bao Jian, Zhang Liyun, and Lin Huan, who had extraordinary backgrounds, should be punished mildly.
"Damn! Mr. Duan, don't stop me! I will kill them personally!" Buttface was totally annoyed by those three sovereigns.
"Mr. Buttface, don't do anything reckless! And I am not stopping you now!" Duan Jiude said as he lifted his arms.
Then Buttface and Duan Jiude turned to Xu Que. They needed an indication from Xu Que about whether they should make a big noise now. However, Xu Que was doing his best to suppress the Firestorm Wheels with his Soul Strength at this time.
When those three people provoked Xu Que, the two souls in the Firestorm Wheels tried to rush out. Xu Que knew clearly that his knife…oh, no, his father-in-law and mother-in-law were thirsty for blood at this moment!
He was pondering to himself, "Should I release these two souls to kill three sovereigns at the summit of the Earth Celestial Stage at the cost of the fast depletion of their energy? No, the cost efficiency is too low!"
Now, Xu Que could kill three cultivators at the summit of the Earth Celestial Stage easily. Therefore, he would never let the souls of the two big shots waste their energy for nothing. After all, the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines he had now were only enough to give these two souls one opportunity to attack his enemy!
"Damn! I can't suppress them anymore!" Apparently, Xu Que was not powerful enough to suppress the two souls. So he cursed to himself because he had been totally annoyed by the three sovereigns. "Holy sh*t! I would have forgiven you if you had admitted your mistakes and allowed Buttface and Duan Jiude to punish you. Now, you choose to act tough in front of the Act-Tough Saint! Don't blame my cruelty!"
"Guardian Mo!" Xu Que shouted seriously.
"Yes, sir!" Mo Junchen, who was prepared, stepped out immediately.
Xu Que lifted his hand and pointed at the three sovereigns as he said coldly, "Kill them all. Also, ask someone to send a message to their families immediately and tell them the Heaven Palace Academy declares war on the Bao Family, the Zhang Family, and the Lin Family. If they are not cowards, they should come here to confront me! Those with cold feet are dogs!"
Chapter 1332: I'm Not a Man to Equivocate

Hearing this, all the apprentices of the Heaven Palace Academy were shocked, and the whole area broke out into an immediate uproar. No one could believe what they had heard and they were all thinking the same thing, "Declare war?
In such a casual way? Isn't it very hasty to declare war on three families at the same time over such a small issue?"
Bao Jian, Zhang Liyun, and Lin Huan were stunned as they stood glued to their spots. They were looking at Xu Que with puzzlement and curiosity as if they were looking at a crazy old man.
WHOOSH! A figure dashed out from Xu Que's side.
Mo Junchen had launched his attack. When Xu Que gave his order, Mo Junchen attacked without any hesitation. Since he had made up his mind to follow the shameless combination of Xu Que, Duan Jiude, and Buttface, he was prepared to do anything for them. Mo Junchen knew clearly that he needed to do anything he was asked, no matter what the consequences would be. Anyway, he was not the one who would clean up the mess at the end!
BOOM! A powerful pressure descended on the three sovereigns.
Mo Junchen had reached the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage. Also, he had obtained the first-rate Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique, which meant he was much more powerful than other cultivators who were at the same stage. Therefore, it was quite easy for him to defeat three sovereigns at the summit of the Earth Celestial Stage.
"No!"
"Wait! Deputy Dean, we haven't finished speaking yet!"
"Please stop the attack, which is totally unnecessary!"
The three of them shouted in terror at the same time. They had realized this Guardian Mo was really about to kill them at this time.
They were arrogant because of who their families were. However, none of these people were in the Heaven Palace Academy right now. Nobody could protect them at this moment. How could they keep calm?
"Deputy Dean, please calm down, and don't do anything reckless!" The woman who had sent Xu Que a silent message before sent him another message. She was feeling extremely nervous.
She knew Xu Que wanted to build his authority now. But once these three sovereigns had been killed, their families would definitely avenge them, which meant the Heaven Palace Academy would have created new enemies without any cause. It was completely unnecessary!
"Kill them!" Xu Que ignored all the noises coming from the three men and the woman's message and just replied with a resolute shout.
Without any hesitation, Mo Junchen attacked them with his magic arts. His arms were wrapped in dazzling flames, and he started to punch the three sovereigns.
Physical Cultivators were good at combining their magic arts with the strength of their physiques. In this way, their attacks could be horribly lethal!
Seeing this, the three sovereigns turned pale as they turned around and tried to escape. However, they were soon caught by the fists which were wrapped with dazzling flames.
PUFF!
Bao Jian spat serious amounts of blood. Then he pressed his storage ring by clenching his teeth. The next moment, a dazzling light shield appeared and put his body under its protection. He also took this opportunity to run away.
Dazzling light also appeared on Zhang Liyun's body. A low-grade Celestial Artifact appeared under his feet, which also helped him to dodge the attack.
Lin Huan was too slow to take any protective measures. His body was demolished by Mo Junchen's fists and exploded into a cloud of blood mist that dissipated in the wind. Lin Huan's body was ruined. But his soul was still alive and tried to escape by flying up into the sky. However, Mo Junchen, who was fully prepared, waved his palm directly. Then the magnificent Soul Strength of a cultivator at the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage gushed out and captured the soul of Lin Huan. BANG! Mo Junchen crushed the soul into ashes with his Soul Strength.
All at once, the entire area was shocked into a dead silence.
All the people were dumbfounded. They had no idea Xu Que's underling would be so powerful that he managed to wound Bao Jian and Zhang Liyun seriously and eliminate Lin Huan together with his soul within several seconds. How ruthless this guy was!
GASP! Many people gasped as they looked at the frail old man who was standing in the sky.
Their thoughts were all pretty much the same: "This new Deputy Dean is really a lunatic! We know you want to build your authority. But you don't need to do it in such a cruel way! Are you really going to start a war between the Heaven Palace Academy and these three families?"
Many apprentices were trembling. Some people considered themselves lucky that they hadn't stepped up to ridicule Xu Que earlier. Otherwise, they would also have become corpses!
The teachers and the other management staff of the Heaven Palace Academy were also totally shocked. Although they didn't belong to the Li Family faction, they had a sense of belonging to the Heaven Palace Academy and treated it as their family. Also, they were used to the friendly relationships between the Heaven Palace Academy and the rest of the sects in their world.
Now, this new Deputy Dean, who was so ruthless and cruel, ignored the families behind these three sovereigns and even declared war on them directly!
Something serious was going to happen!
Peaceful life in the Heaven Palace Academy was going to be ruined.
"Deputy Dean, Deputy Dean! Please spare our lives!"
"We know we were wrong! We shouldn't have disrespected you just now! Please spare our lives!"
Bao Jian and Zhang Liyun, who had just escaped death, dropped on their knees and asked for mercy by kowtowing crazily. They knew clearly that they were not able to get away from Mo Junchen. The strength gap between them and a cultivator at the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage was too large, and it couldn't be filled by the low-grade Celestial Artifacts in their hands. The two of them were in a panic. They had to concede and ask for mercy. When they could get back to their families, they could seek revenge against Xu Que in the future!
"Heh! Now you know you were wrong, right? I offered you an opportunity just now. Unfortunately, you killed your fellow apprentices and disrespected me and even wasted the opportunity I offered you. Above all, you are so ugly! How could you have the nerve to live in this world?" Xu Que scolded seriously. When he said "you are so ugly" his voice got very loud.
The rest of the people in this place were surprised. Bao Jian and Zhang Liyun were even more puzzled. They stared at each other with embarrassment. We are not ugly at all!
"Deputy Dean, we can explain about that fellow apprentice. He is not dead but seriously wounded. He is healing in the clinic of the South Building!" Bao Jian said hurriedly at this time.
Buttface shouted in surprise, "What did you say? Song Dabao is not dead?"
"No, he helped you to escape. We knew we couldn't kill our fellow apprentice. So, we just beat him up to vent our anger. But we didn't kill him…" Bao Jian said in a hurry.
"F*ck! You didn't kill him. But he is still healing in the clinic after so many years! How serious were his wounds!" Buttface shouted angrily.
"Hey! Mr. Buttface, forget it! Since Song Dabao is not dead, let's just vent our anger by beating them up!" Duan Jiude suggested.
Hearing this, Bao Jian and Zhang Liyun let out sighs of relief. It was okay to be beaten up as long as they could stay alive. No matter how serious their wounds were, they could recover soon with numerous elixirs when they could go back to their families! They felt an enormous sense of relief. Unlike Song Dabao, who had nothing and no one to support him, Bao Jian and Zhang Liyun were much more powerful and wealthier.
The other people in this place also put their hearts at rest. When they looked at Xu Que, their hearts were full of terror because they had been intimidated by this old man's horrible measures.
First, he had killed Lin Huan mercilessly. Then he gave a hint to Buttface and Duan Jiude, so that they could make a concession with the excuse that Song Dabao was still alive! In this way, they could stand down gracefully. Also, the Heaven Palace Academy could avoid making a lot more enemies.
The relationship with the Lin Family had been totally ruined. However, if the sovereigns of the Bao Family and the Zhang Family were not killed, they could avoid worsening these relationships through negotiations. Also, if the Bao Family and the Zhang Family were not enemies of the Heaven Palace Academy, the Lin Family wouldn't dare to stand against the Heaven Palace Academy alone! This method could satisfy both sides! After all, the Deputy Dean could build his authority. Also, the Heaven Palace Academy could avoid becoming an enemy of the three families at the same time. Many people looked at Xu Que with admiration because they were impressed by his smart methods!
"Guardian Mo!" Xu Que shouted suddenly at this time. He frowned slightly and said as he stared at Mo Junchen with wide eyes, "What are you waiting for? Just kill these two people immediately!"
"What?" was the thought of all the people in this place. They were totally shocked and puzzled after hearing Xu Que's words.
"Why are you still going to kill them?"
"The result will be a lot better if you spare their lives! Why do you want to do that?"
"If you insist on killing them, your smart methods will become a foolish choice!"
"I'm not a man to equivocate!" Xu Que said coldly as he glanced at Bao Jian and Zhang Liyun. "A real man never goes back on his word! I said I would kill all your family members, and I will definitely redeem my promise!"
Chapter 1333: Guardian Mo, Attack!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
BOOM!
The attack was extremely quick and lethal without any hesitation!
Mo Junchen's overbearing attack was so magnificent that everyone else in the area was shocked by his tempestuous Soul Strength, which gushed out rapidly.
Mo Junchen gave a full play of the strength of a cultivator at the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage! After combining his powerful physique with his magic arts, his attack was very horrible. The next moment, his body was flying forward rapidly like a strand of light and his fists, which seemed like giant asteroids, had locked on their targets.
Bao Jian and Zhang Liyun had reached the summit of the Earth Celestial Stage. However, in front of a powerhouse at the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage who had obtained the first-rate Hell King's Prison Suppression Physique, they were as weak as two kids. Moreover, they had already been seriously wounded and were not able to dodge the attack at all!
BANG!
Along with a big bang, Bao Jian and Zhang Liyun were turned into two clouds of blood mist by Mo Junchen's attack. Even their souls were crushed in the wind!
Mo Junchen knew clearly that Xu Que had made up his mind to kill Bao Jian, Zhang Liyun, and Lin Huan who had offended Buttface and Duan Jiude previously. At this time, they even dared to show their arrogance in front of Xu Que!
So they had to be killed rapidly. Otherwise, they would try to screw with Xu Que again, which could annoy the two souls in the Firestorm Wheels. If Xu Que failed to stop the souls from rushing out, he could suffer a great loss!
After all, 200 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines were only enough for one attack of the two souls!
Therefore, Mo Junchen had killed Bao Jian and Zhang Liyun without any hesitation.
Now, the entire area close to the mountain behind the Heaven Palace Academy was in a dead silence!
All the people were staring at the three puddles of blood in a daze and couldn't believe what they saw.
Some teachers and management personnel of the Heaven Palace Academy who witnessed this were totally shocked.
These people, whose bodies had turned stiff with terror, looked up at this frail old man in the sky. The only phrase in their minds was "What a lunatic! What a crazy old man!"
"Have you sent someone to prepare the written challenge letter I mentioned just now? Just deliver my words to the Bao Family, the Zhang Family, and the Lin Family that if they want to seek revenge, they should come to see me. Although I am the Deputy Dean of the Heaven Palace Academy, I will fight these three families alone. I won't use the strength of the Heaven Palace Academy. Remember, I will kill anyone from the academy who dares to help me at that time!" Xu Que shouted in a loud voice that echoed all around.
Then, in front of the dumbfounded eyes of everyone, Xu Que flew away together with Buttface, Duan Jiude, Mo Junchen, and Liu Jingning. They left for the upper level of the Heaven Palace Academy where the elite apprentices of the sect performed their secluded cultivation. This was where Jiang Hongyan could be found.
As soon as they had left, all the people who had witnessed these events descended into an uproar, talking about what had happened just now.
"My God!"
"I thought this old man who has just become the Deputy Dean was powerless and easily bullied. I didn't expect he would be so ruthless!"
"It turns out that this old man is the most horrible guy in our academy!"
"H*ll! No! I think our peaceful life is ruined. The Heaven Palace Academy will become an inferno in future!"
"Your peaceful life is ruined. I guess my life is endangered! When they were about to leave here, I noticed Buttface was winking at me. When we were hunting down Buttface and Duan Jiude, I used to touch Buttface's butt! I guess he is holding a grudge against me!"
"You are a fool! As the old saying goes, you should never touch the butt of a dog! Why did you do that?"
"I didn't know this dog had such a powerful backer!"
"Alas! I'm afraid the rising wind forebodes the coming storm! He will get the whole academy in an uproar very soon!"
Many apprentices and teachers of the Heaven Palace Academy were talking about Xu Que at this moment.
Some of them were anxious. Some of them were worried, and some of them were filled with complicated feelings.
A lot of people were not used to the arrival of this new Deputy Dean who brought them great anxiety!
…..
At the same time, Xu Que and his teammates had arrived at the upper level of the Heaven Palace Academy.
The main part of the Heaven Palace Academy was on the basic level where ordinary apprentices lived and performed their cultivation. The upper level of this academy was composed of countless big and small mountains that were floating above the basic level.
At first glance, these mountains were just like many asteroids that were flying around the basic level of the Heaven Palace Academy!
Each elite apprentice had a small mountain as their abode. However, there were so many mountains here that it was very difficult to find Jiang Hongyan.
Luckily, Buttface and Duan Jiude, who had stayed in this place for some time, knew the way very well. When they entered this area, Buttface and Duan Jiude started to run in one direction. What Xu Que needed to do was just to follow them together with Mo Junchen and Liu Jingning.
However, they were soon stopped by some figures who appeared in front of them.
These figures were old men in gray robes. All of them had reached the level of the Taiyi Disbanded Celestial. Even though they didn't show their strength deliberately, their momentum was even more powerful than that of Mo Junchen!
Although Mo Junchen's next Cultivation Stage was the Taiyi Disbanded Celestial, the strength gap between the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage and the Taiyi Disbanded Celestial was still enormous!
"This is the site for cultivation. Without good cause, no trespassing is allowed!" One old man said as he looked at Xu Que and his teammates calmly.
Buttface shouted at the old man as he pointed his paw at Xu Que, "This is the new Deputy Dean of the Heaven Palace Academy. He is here to check the cultivation of the apprentices in this place. Just make way!"
The old man glanced at Xu Que and said, bowing to Xu Que, "Greet you, Deputy Dean!"
Apparently, they had witnessed what had happened on the basic level just now. So they were not surprised by Xu Que's new identity as the Deputy Dean at all.
Also, they didn't stop what had happened just now. After all, they were not qualified to stop Xu Que who had become the Deputy Dean. Also, they were not willing to do that.
But they stopped Xu Que and his teammates in this place because they were entitled to do that. Anyone who wanted to go into this place must be approved by them. Otherwise, random trespassing would interrupt the cultivation of the apprentices who might then even be possessed by their inner demon!
"They are the deacons in this place. Their boss has even reached the level of the Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven. All of them are in the faction of the Deputy Dean Li Qingshan who had good relations with the Sage Sect. So, we can't afford to offend them!" Duan Jiude reminded Xu Que in a low voice at this time.
Xu Que raised his eyebrows immediately as he was thinking, "We can't afford to offend them? That's impossible! Now, I can offend anyone on the Heaven Continent!"
"Step aside! I want to see my daughter-in-law!" Xu Que said as he stared at the old men seriously.
The old men ignored his words and said indifferently, "Deputy Dean, you have to obey the rules here. We should inform Jiang Hongyan about your arrival first. However, Jiang Hongyan is in a key stage of her cultivation. I don't think this is a good time to bother her. So, please could you come here later!"
"What?"
Xu Que asked as chilly light flashed in his eyes.
"Does this mean Jiang Hongyan is under house arrest now?"
"Humph!" Xu Que sneered, "Are you sure you want to talk about rules with me? The rules are compiled by people who are powerful! So…I will change the rules in this place!"
After saying that, Xu Que waved his hand and shouted seriously, "Guardian Mo! Attack! Just kill them all!"
Mo Junchen, "???"
Do you want me to attack five powerhouses alone? Do you want me to kill five Taiyi Disbanded Celestials alone?
Chapter 1334: You Are Totally Useless!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"How can I kill them?"
Mo Junchen asked as he looked at Xu Que and spread his hands with embarrassment.
When Mo Junchen was asked to kill three sovereigns at the summit of the Earth Celestial Stage, he did it without hesitation because he could defeat them easily.
However, now he was not able to defeat even one Taiyi Disbanded Celestial, let alone kill five Taiyi Disbanded Celestials all at once!
"I am not able to defeat them!" Mo Junchen said and didn't move a bit.
Mo Junchen believed he would be killed instantly if he dared to move at this moment. When the Taiyi Disbanded Celestials decided to attack him, he would be crushed like the three sovereigns at the Earth Celestial Stage who were killed by him just now.
Then, Xu Que, Buttface, and Duan Jiude started to look at Mo Junchen disdainfully.
"Heh! What a guardian!"
The three of them shook their heads at the same time.
Mo Junchen was so annoyed he even wanted to spit blood. "Why is my life as a guardian so hard? Why did I choose these guys as my teammates?"
"You are totally useless!" Buttface ridiculed Mo Junchen.
"You are so incompetent!" Duan Jiude also said, shaking his head.
"Sh*t!" Mo Junchen couldn't stand it anymore and cursed, imitating the tone of Buttface, "You can teach me how to kill them now!"
"Of course!" Buttface and Duan Jiude shouted majestically as if death was nothing for them.
However, their reaction totally puzzled Mo Junchen who believed it was unreasonable and unusual!
"How could Buttface and Duan Jiude be so valiant?"
"I don't think they are the real Buttface and Duan Jiude!"
"Wait! Could it be that…"
Mo Junchen came to himself and figured something out suddenly. Then his eyes got wide, and he really wanted to spit blood this time.
"Oh, no!" Almost at the same time, those Taiyi Disbanded Celestials also figured out that something was wrong. They changed their expressions and rushed away like five strands of light.
WHOOSH!
The next moment, Xu Que, Buttface, Duan Jiude, and Liu Jingning became blurry and then disappeared on the spot.
"Illusions!"
"They used the trick of illusions again!"
Mo Junchen tried to weep, but failed to shed a tear. "Why do they always leave me behind?"
He was quite embarrassed and speechless. But his cultivation stage was the highest among them, and it seemed he was the most powerful one. So, he had attracted the most attention of those Taiyi Disbanded Celestials.
So Xu Que, Buttface, and Duan Jiude could set up an illusory Array secretly to fool those Taiyi Disbanded Celestials and even Duan Jiude!
"Heh! Heh! They have been misguided by us!" At this moment, Buttface's voice could be heard.
"As I said, if we are understrengthed, we must outsmart them!" Duan Jiude's voice also came in.
"Bullsh*t! What did you do just now? It is the result of my wisdom!" Xu Que's disdainful voice also rang out at this time.
Mo Junchen was stunned a bit. Then he found that Xu Que, Buttface, Duan Jiude, and Liu Jingning had reappeared in front of him.
Now he was totally dumbfounded. What the h*ll is going on?
"Guardian Mo, nicely done! Your cooperation just now was perfect!" Xu Que walked up and complimented Mo Junchen as he patted Mo Junchen's shoulder.
"My cooperation?"
Mo Junchen, whose eyes were wide, was puzzled by Xu Que's compliments.
"That's enough! Let's get down to business now. Otherwise, when they realize they were fooled, we will have to confront them again!" Liu Jingning reminded them at this time.
"Let's go!" Xu Que waved his hand and dashed forward directly without giving an explanation to Mo Junchen.
Just now, Xu Que had planned to kill those Taiyi Disbanded Celestials by releasing the souls of Guan Chuchu and Xuanyuan Qishang. When he realized he had to deal with the trouble of those three big families, he changed his plans. After all, the cost of killing those Taiyi Disbanded Celestials with the two souls was too high for him.
Moreover, he just wanted to see Jiang Hongyan and didn't want to make a big noise in the Heaven Palace Academy.
So, he set up an illusory Array together with Buttface and Duan Jiude and tried to fool those Taiyi Disbanded Celestials with it. But they didn't take this opportunity to find Jiang Hongyan, because they knew clearly that they were not fast enough to run away from those Taiyi Disbanded Celestials.
So, they hid themselves. When those old men sensed the illusory Array and started to chase them, they would go around from the rear, which was safe and cost-efficient.
"Hey! Something is wrong! It seems this place has been changed!"
On the way, Buttface frowned and pointed at several small mountains floating in the sky and he said, shaking his head, "When I came here before, there were at least 30 mountains here. Now, only these mountains are left!"
"Oh, no! I guess they have changed the layout of the abodes!" Duan Jiude said in surprise.
If Buttface and Duan Jiude led the way for them, it was not difficult to find Jiang Hongyan in these thickly dotted mountains!
However, if the layout of the mountains had been changed, it was going to be extremely difficult. Each abode had been sealed by a powerful shielding Array to avoid the apprentices who were performing secluded cultivation from being bothered. And it was impossible for sense their aura from outside. In this way, it was going to be extremely hard to find Jiang Hongyan in a short time.
"No! Hongyan should be here. When they found the illusory Array, they just ran toward this place directly, which means Jiang Hongyan is near here!" Xu Que said seriously.
The current situation was quite unexpected for him. He thought it would be quite easy to meet Jiang Hongyan as the Deputy Dean of the academy. He didn't expect those old deacons would be so stubborn, which gave him a bad feeling about this issue.
"Hey! What you said is right! Let's just follow them. But they are still rushing forward now. I remember Jiang Hongyan's abode shouldn't be so far away. And I'm afraid they will arrive at the abode of the Sage Sect's Divine Being of Taoist Fetus soon!"
Buttface said with puzzlement. Then, he shouted in surprise, "Holy sh*t! Don't tell me they have placed the abodes of Jiang Hongyan and that Divine Being of Taoist Fetus in the same place!"
BOOM!
Instantly, a cloud of horrible killing intent gushed out from Xu Que's body. He was looking forward with his eyes, which were full of chilly lights.
"Holy sh*t! Little brat, you will reveal our position in this way!" Seeing this, Duan Jiude shouted immediately.
They could come to this place without being detected because they had concealed their auras perfectly. Now Xu Que had released his killing intent, which meant he had told his position to his enemies.
"Heh! I just wanted to reveal my position to them, so that they would come here soon. Otherwise…how could I kill them?" Xu Que sneered and his killing intent was even more obvious and horrible now.
Standing beside Xu Que, Mo Junchen was shocked because he had never seen this before.
Buttface, Duan Jiude, and Liu Jingning, who had seen it many times before, were not surprised at all. Xu Que used to exterminate many families and his ruthless measures had totally terrified the Four Great Continents!
These days, Xu Que was not that arrogant anymore. Now, however, when he heard that Jiang Hongyan's abode had been placed beside the abode of that Divine Being of Taoist Fetus, he was totally furious again.
Apparently, Buttface, Duan Jiude, and Liu Jingning believed Xu Que would wipe out the Heaven Palace Academy and the Sage Sect by releasing the two souls without any hesitation if they dared to force Jiang Hongyan to marry that Divine Being of Taoist Fetus.
After all, Xu Que had never been a good boy!
After all, Xu Que's nickname "Big Devil" was not groundless!
After all, this guy was the King of Jealousy of the Exploding Heavens Faction!
Chapter 1335: I Can Really Act Willfully!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Deputy Dean, what do you mean by doing that?"
An old man's voice could be heard from not far away.
The Deacons at the level of the Taiyi Disbanded Celestial had returned by following Xu Que's killing intent. Now they were staring at Xu Que indifferently.
In front of these emboldened Deacons, the arrogance of Bao Jian, Zhang Liyun, and Lin Huan were as nothing.
They didn't believe Xu Que had the courage to attack them. Also, they didn't believe Xu Que's strength was strong enough to attack them.
Even if Xu Que was powerful enough to attack them, these Taiyi Disbanded Celestials were not afraid of him at all. After all, their boss, the Grand Deacon at the level of the Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, who was only a minor cultivation stage away from the current Dean, was also performing cultivation in this place!
Moreover, all of them were trusted subordinates of Li Qingshan, who was also the Deputy Dean of this academy. Together with the support of the Sage Sect, they were quite confident that their strength and backer were much more powerful than those of Xu Que.
"I will only ask you once! Where is Jiang Hongyan?" Xu Que asked as he stared at the old men seriously.
One old man said coldly, "Deputy Dean, please mind your manners. In this place, you cannot act willfully even if you are the Deputy Dean of this academy! You have to obey the rules here. So please leave here immediately, and your understanding will be appreciated!"
"What a load of claptrap!"
Xu Que shook his head and took out the Firestorm Wheels from the System package.
"Since you ignored my request, don't blame my cruelty. Anyway, this is not the first time for me do this. When I could earn experience points by killing others before, I did it many times. Now, I can't earn any experience points through it. But it can't stop me from killing all of you!"
"Heh! Deputy Dean, why do you put on airs in front of several Deacons when you have just taken office?"
Just at this time, a sneering comment could be heard.
A white-haired old woman walked out from the mountains in front of them with her hands behind her back.
She was walking in the air as if she was walking on flat ground. Although her movement was quite slow, she could cover several hundred yards with one step!
"She is a Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven!"
Mo Junchen identified this old woman's cultivation stage seriously.
"Deputy Dean, I am the Grand Deacon of the Heaven Palace Academy. And I am responsible for this place. Please forgive my ignorant subordinates who might have offended you! Moreover, I don't think they have done anything wrong!" The old woman said as she was walking toward Xu Que with a foxy smile on her wrinkled face.
"Heh! I just want to see my daughter-in-law! Are you still going to stop me from doing that?" Xu Que also smiled delightedly.
Maybe it was not cost-efficient to kill several Taiyi Disbanded Celestials with the two souls. But it would be quite profitable to kill a Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven!
"I'm afraid what you have said just now is incorrect! As far as I know, Jiang Hongyan hasn't gotten married yet. How could she be your daughter-in-law? Also, she is performing secluded cultivation now. I don't think it is a good time to bother her. According to the rules, we have every reason to stop you from seeing her!" The old woman replied with a sly smile as she continued to walk toward Xu Que.
Her momentum became increasingly stronger gradually. Apparently, she was trying to intimidate Xu Que with that.
Xu Que was smiling because the Firestorm Wheels had started to tremble violently.
"What if I still want to see her?" He asked with a smile.
FLOP!
The old woman stopped walking, and her foxy smile disappeared. Then she replied expressionlessly, "According to the rules of the Heaven Palace Academy, anyone who violates the rules by trespassing in this place will be killed!"
After saying that, the old woman said as she looked at Xu Que sarcastically, "Although I don't know how you got the position of Deputy Dean, I believe the hearsay about you is quite ridiculous! Your actual cultivation stage can never reach or exceed the Celestial King! So, I suggest you leave well enough alone and don't cross the line. It is not your turn to rule the Heaven Palace Academy where you can't act willfully!"
"Heh! What you said is correct! I haven't reached or exceeded the level of the Celestial King! But you've made a terrible mistake, which is…"
Xu Que squinted his eyes as he said, word by word, with a smile, "Now, I can really act willfully!"
BOOM!
The next moment, Xu Que canceled the seal on the Firestorm Wheels and released those two souls who were already so furious.
Two horrible momentums gushed out and terrified everyone in this area instantly.
The old woman and the Deacons at the level of the Taiyi Disbanded Celestial were stunned and changed their expressions abruptly. Then their eye pupils were constricted dramatically.
"The summit…of the Celestial Prime?"
"How could this be?"
The old woman shouted in surprise because she didn't believe what she saw.
The higher cultivators' cultivation stage was, the better they could understand the horrible strength of those who were at higher stages. Even though the old woman had become a Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, which was only a step away from the summit of the Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, which was the highest cultivation stage on the Heaven Continent, she still knew her limitations!
The strength of cultivators who were more powerful than her was unimaginable for her!
Even a Celestial King could be invincible on the Heaven Continent, let alone two cultivators at the summit of the Celestial Prime!
This was so horrible. It turned out that this guy had obtained the position of the Deputy Dean with these two souls!
"Wait! Deputy Dean, this is a misunderstanding!" The old woman couldn't keep calm anymore and started to shout at Xu Que in terror.
She was totally terrified. In front of the Celestial Primes, a Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven like her was just like an ant who was not even qualified to struggle for her life!
"Heh! It is too late! Just kill all of them!" Xu Que sneered as he pointed at the old woman and the Deacons.
The two souls had sensed the killing intent of the old woman and the Deacons. So it was too late even if they chose to give in at this time.
"No! Deputy Dean, I was wrong! From now on, I will serve you with my loyalty! Please spare my life!" The old woman shouted in a hurry.
The Deacons at the level of the Taiyi Disbanded Celestial had dropped on their knees to beg for mercy from Xu Que and those two souls.
Xu Que looked at them indifferently as he shook his head. A moment ago, this old woman and the Deacons were so arrogant and rampant. The comparison was so ridiculous and ironic!
"Heh! I think…this is the right of being strong? It is much more useful than your load of claptrap!" Xu Que said with a faint smile, but his killing intent was still very strong.
He even ignored the old woman's allegiance.
Xu Que was always straightforward when he dealt with things like this. If he was strong enough to kill his opponents, he would do it directly and would never consider the possibility of accepting the allegiance of his opponents.
It was quite simple. If you did something against me and made me unhappy, I will just kill you. And I won't consider your allegiance at all! Heh! Heh! Sorry, because you are not qualified to serve the Act-Tough Saint who disdains your allegiance!
"Kill them!" Xu Que shouted again.
White fog appeared on the two souls, which were dissipating quickly. Xuanyuan Qishang's soul, which was wrapped by killing intent, kept murmuring, "How dare you do harm to my child? Just die!"
He didn't care about the quick dissipation of his soul because he didn't know what was happening to his soul now. He fixed his eyes on the old woman and her underlings. For him, these people were just like some ants. He was not in a hurry to kill them immediately!
Seeing this, the old woman and the Deacons were quite puzzled. But the fear in their hearts was still lingering. When they saw Xu Que had made up his mind to kill them, their reason had been totally blown away by their fear.
"No!" The old woman shouted in a hurry, "I've served the Heaven Palace Academy for so many years! You can't kill me because the Li Family won't let you do it!"
"Humph! The Li Family couldn't make decisions for me! Just kill them!" Xu Que yelled as he stepped forward.
The two souls were not in a hurry to kill them. But Xu Que was quite anxious at this moment. He worried that the old woman and her underlings would survive when the two souls dissipated. So he stepped forward to exert more pressure on the old woman and her underlings. If they could release more grievances or killing intent, the soul of Xuanyuan Qishang would be completely annoyed!
"No…"
Xu Que's action was effective. When he stepped forward, the old woman and her underlings, who knew their life would be ended soon, started to shout in despair.
Almost at the same time, the two souls also moved.
Xuanyuan Qishang's soul rushed up and stood in front of Xu Que.
Guan Chuchu's soul also stepped forward. Then she waved her hands to embrace Xu Que in her arms again.
All of a sudden, it seemed the air in this area became still. The situation was so weird and embarrassing.
The old woman and those Deacons were dumbfounded by what they saw. One moment ago, they thought they would be killed instantly. Now, they saw this funny scene.
The Deputy Dean, who had urged the two souls to kill them just now, was being hugged in the arms of a woman like a small kid. Wow! This scene…is so humiliating for this frail old man!
"It seems the souls of the two Celestial Primes are dissipating!" A Deacon came to himself and figured out something was wrong with these two souls at this time.
According to their speed of dissipation, maybe the two souls would disappear in a short while!
"What? Are they…souls without intelligence?" The old woman also figured out this fact. She was shocked a bit. Then a grim smile appeared on her face.
"Heh! Heh! Deputy Dean, it seems these two souls will…"
WHOOSH!
The old woman was interrupted before she could finish her words. Her grim smile was frozen on her lifeless face!
Xuanyuan Qishang's soul and Guan Chuchu's soul, who was hugging Xu Que, rushed forward and stopped in front of the old woman and those Deacons in the blink of an eye!
SWISH!
A strand of chilly light appeared in this place.
Several heads with frightened expressions fell down through the air together with their headless bodies. Their souls had also been eliminated before they could escape from their bodies!
The strength of the Celestial Primes was so horrible!
Chapter 1336: I've Found Her!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
WHOOSH!
Xu Que waved his hand to release his Soul Strength. Then it pushed the two souls back into the Firestorm Wheels.
The two souls' dissipation slowed down as soon as they calmed down.
FLOP! FLOP! FLOP!
At the same time, several heavy things dropped on the ground on the first level of the Heaven Palace Academy, making a weird noise.
Although the sound was quite faint when it was heard by Xu Que and his teammates on the upper level, it still reverberated enough for them to notice it.
The heads and bodies of the old woman and the Deacons fell to the ground and broke into pieces. Many apprentices who were on the first level heard the noise much more loudly and came over to check it out.
Suddenly, the first level dropped into dead silence.
All the apprentices were totally shocked. They looked up at Xu Que, who was standing in the air, and looked down at the corpses on the ground. They were completely dumbfounded.
"Is…this the Grand Deacon?"
"Is she dead?"
"My God! How…could this be possible? The Grand Deacon, who has reached the level of the Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, was one of the top three cultivators in our academy! How could she be…?"
"Was she killed by the new Deputy Dean?"
Someone asked a meaningless question. Once again, they all couldn't help but look up at Xu Que who was standing in the sky.
At this moment, Xu Que was standing in the sky with his hands behind his back like a secluded expert.
GASP!
All the onlookers couldn't help but gasp at this moment.
All the apprentices and teachers of the academy were shocked and couldn't believe what they were seeing.
In the past, they had doubted Xu Que's strength. They didn't believe that Xu Que could reach or exceed the level of a Celestial King. Otherwise, how could he be willing to just act as a Deputy Dean? A Celestial King could rule the Heaven Palace Academy and even the entire Heaven Continent easily!
Now, they were dumbfounded again. This guy had killed a Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven! Nobody could doubt his identity as a Celestial King anymore.
The vitality of a Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven was extremely powerful. Even Dean Li Qinghe, who was one stage higher than Grand Deacon, was not able to kill her instantly. The fight between them would last for several days and nights. And he was not able to stop the Grand Deacon from escaping if she decided to do that.
Those who could kill a Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven must be much more powerful and should at least have reached or even exceeded the level of Celestial King!
No wonder!
No wonder he could declare war against the three families. And he even declared that he would handle the three families alone! Obviously, he was confident that he could do that!
They became more and more fearful and worried as they thought about all the ramifications of this issue.
As the old saying goes, a new broom sweeps everything clean! First, Xu Que killed Bao Jian, Zhang Liyun, and Lin Huan. Then he swept away the Grand Deacon and several Deacons of the Heaven Palace Academy. Who would be his next target?
Many people knew the answer in their hearts. According to the logic that he had followed so far, they figured that his next target would be the Sage Sect!
They were quite clear that Jiang Hongyan had always said that Xu Que was her cultivation companion. However, the Sage Sect and the Heaven Palace Academy still wanted to force her to marry the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus. Now Xu Que's father, who was so powerful, had arrived. It was highly possible that his next target would be the Sage Sect.
"I had heard that the Grand Deacon changed the layout of all the abodes on the upper level. It seems she placed Jiang Hongyan's abode in a place very close to the abode of the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus. I guess the academy was trying to create more opportunities for them to be together. Now, I guess it is highly possible that that was the reason for the new Deputy Dean to kill the Grand Deacon!"
"Holy sh*t! Just because of this? As far as I know, Jiang Hongyan is performing secluded cultivation. Even if her abode was placed in a new place, it was impossible for the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus to get close to her. The Grand Deacon was killed mistakenly!"
"Nonsense! I feel good about her death. That old woman was not honest at all. The Deputy Dean has eliminated a pest in our academy!"
"I've also heard that. The Grand Deacon was very close to the Sage Sect. Although the relationship between our academy and the Sage Sect is quite good, the Grand Deacon was just too close to them. I always got a feeling that she was a spy of the Sage Sect!"
PUFF! "Describing her as a spy is exaggerated. I think the Grand Deacon was trying to make up to both sides!"
"You know nothing! I used to see her dropping on her knees in front of that Divine Being of Taoist Fetus. Then she did something shameless!"
"Holy sh*t! Buddy, you can't talk nonsense like this! How could that Divine Being of Taoist Fetus do that with the Grand Deacon, who was an old woman?"
"Of course! I even saw the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus smiling at that time!"
"Wow! That's so horrible?"
"Horrible? It was certainly horrible! When the Grand Deacon knelt down in front of the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus, she kowtowed to him and even called him the young master! Isn't that horrible? The Grand Deacon must be from the Sage Sect!"
"D*mn! You call this horrible?"
"Sh*t! You have been telling us stories!"
People were talking about this issue nonstop. The identity of the Grand Deacon became their number one topic.
Many people in the academy knew some secrets. But they didn't talk about the secrets because of their low status.
Now the Grand Deacon had been killed. Some bold people started to talk about the secrets they knew about her.
However, the Grand Deacon was dead now, and it was quite difficult to verify whether those secrets about her were true or not.
Xu Que was not interested in her secrets at all. While these people were gossiping, he had earned more than 100,000 Acting Tough Points. Now, he was flying contentedly together with Buttface, Duan Jiude, Mo Junchen, and Liu Jingning toward their next target, which was the abode of Jiang Hongyan.
There were so many abodes on the upper level of the academy. Without effective guidance, it was quite difficult for them to find Jiang Hongyan among all the abodes that had been sealed.
However, according to the direction that the Deacons tried to chase them away from just now, Xu Que was basically sure that Jiang Hongyan was near here. He believed they could find her.
They split up and started to search for the abode of Jiang Hongyan.
On his way, Xu Que checked the System interface and found something new in the package. They were the storage rings of the Grand Deacon and the other Deacons. These rings had been opened by the System and their contents sorted automatically.
"What?"
Xu Que glanced at the items. He was shocked by what he saw.
Normally, when he killed his enemies, the System would collect their storage rings. However, Xu Que had little interest in the belongings of his enemies. Maybe the Spirit Stones and pills would be useful for him. All the rest of the things would be totally useless.
However, now, taking a quick glance, he found a precious item in the booty. It was an old and damaged Guqin.
After evaluation, the System told him this Guqin was just an Inferior Celestial Artifact. All the strings of the Guqin were gone and only its wooden body was left. Although it was a damaged item, it was still an Inferior Celestial Artifact!
Apparently, if it had been complete, it would be far more precious. It was still repairable. As for the level of this item after being repaired, Xu Que only found some question marks in the System interface!
Xu Que knew the upper limit of this Guqin would be very high, which couldn't even be evaluated by the System at this moment.
"This is quite interesting! It seems I've found something precious! I'm afraid this Guqin will be enhanced remarkably as long as I can find appropriate strings for it!" Xu Que smiled to himself.
"If I could repair this Guqin, I would play the main theme of Tokyo Hot before starting a fight with my enemies. Then I will defeat my enemies with the music of this Guqin! This is so desirable!"
"Little brat, come here, I've found her!"
At this time, Buttface's coarse voice could be heard from not far away. He was standing in front of a small mountain as he waved his paw at Xu Que.
Chapter 1337: Just Blow Up the Neighboring Abode!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Have you found her?"
Xu Que was delighted. He closed the System interface and lost interest in the damaged old Guqin instantly.
For him, nothing was more important than seeing Jiang Hongyan again.
"Wait, little brat, don't startle her!"
Buttface shouted as he waved his paw toward Xu Que.
Xu Que was stunned. He stopped and asked, frowning, "What do you mean?"
Buttface pointed at some shiny words written on the front of her abode, which had been left by Jiang Hongyan.
She was reminding people from the Heaven Palace Academy that her cultivation breakthrough had entered a critical phase. And she would need three years to perform secluded cultivation. During this period, she didn't want to be bothered by anyone.
Before this, Xu Que had thought that Jiang Hongyan was trying to avoid the forced marriage the Sage Sect was pushing on her by performing secluded cultivation. However, when he saw those words, he realized that Jiang Hongyan was really performing secluded cultivation, so that she could realize a breakthrough in three years.
TSK! TSK! TSK! "Little Queque, it seems as if you wronged some people. Those Deacons weren't lying to you!" Liu Jingning, smiling, made fun of Xu Que.
"Heh! Good guys? Little devil, you should look at the restrictive spells outside Hongyan's abode!" Xu Que sneered as flames surged in his eyes.
Liu Jingning was surprised by Xu Que's words. Then she turned and examined the rest of the mountains in this area and she saw that they were covered by thickly dotted, dazzling restrictive spells.
Normally, it was quite ordinary to set up restrictive spells outside abodes to prevent the trespassing of outsiders. Even if the restrictive spells failed to prevent outsiders from going into the abode, they could still earn some time for the one in the abode to stop secluded cultivation. In this way, they could avoid being bothered during their secluded cultivation, which might result in the possession of their body by their inner demons.
However, the restrictive spell outside the abode of Jiang Hongyan was quite simple. It seemed as if this dazzling restrictive spell was connected to the restrictive spell of a neighboring abode. In this way, the two abodes were under the protection of a set of restrictive spells that could coordinate with each other.
"Is this…the Mandarin Duck Marriage Array?" Mo Junchen shouted in surprise because he recognized this Array.
"Holy sh*t! It is indeed this Array!"
"D*mn! The Heaven Palace Academy and the Sage Sect are too shameless! How could they create a marriage in such a forcible way?" Duan Jiude and Buttface were also shocked. Then both of them cursed angrily.
The Mandarin Duck Marriage Array could create a connection in the destiny of two cultivators.
It was quite mysterious. The destiny, which was invisible and untouchable, could create all kinds of opportunities to connect two unconnected people. This Array was quite like the Red Rope of Marriage that had been obtained by Xu Que from the System.
Apparently, the Heaven Palace Academy and the Sage Sect had figured out that Jiang Hongyan didn't want to marry the Sage Sect's Divine Being of Taoist Fetus, and they were not able to force her to accept this marriage. Therefore, they set up this Array secretly when Jiang Hongyan was performing secluded cultivation, so that Jiang Hongyan's destiny could be connected to the destiny of the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus. When she finished her secluded cultivation, the effect of this Array would be revealed.
Xu Que had also done such a thing before. He had tied the Red Rope of Marriage on Zixia Fairy, which really created opportunities for him later.
However, Xu Que wasn't worried that this Array would influence Jiang Hongyan. He had gone through fire and brimstone, wind and rain, together with Jiang Hongyan. According to his understanding of Jiang Hongyan, the relationship between them couldn't be ruined by a marriage Array this easily.
But Xu Que was still very angry about these restrictive spells.
For him, the Heaven Palace Academy and the Sage Sect were not only shameless but arrogant. They insisted on doing these things when they knew Jiang Hongyan had a cultivation companion clearly, which meant they looked down upon the Act-Tough Saint!
They are undermining our relationship by trying to create a home wrecker. How despicable they are!
"Buttface, Guardian Mo, just blow up the neighboring abode. If that Divine Being of Taoist Fetus is in it, grab him out!"
Xu Que said as he looked at Mo Junchen and Buttface.
"I am responsible for blowing up this abode. And I will leave the trifle of capturing the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus to Guardian Mo!" Buttface dashed out and started to punch on the door of the neighboring abode with his paws right away.
Xu Que took out the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines and refined them into liquid. Then he gave it to the two souls in his Firestorm Wheels in order to help with their recovery.
He needed a safeguard to protect himself from the possible powerful cultivators in the abode of the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus.
After all, this guy was the Holy Son and the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus of the Sage Sect. If he was performing secluded cultivation in this abode, the Sage Sect would definitely have arranged powerful guardians to protect him.
Therefore, better safe than sorry. If the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus was really in this abode, Xu Que would kill him with the two souls without any hesitation.
BOOM!
Buttface was punching the abode strenuously and making a lot of noise.
However, the abode was unexpectedly strong. It seemed as if Buttface was not going to be able to destroy it in a short time. Seeing this, Mo Junchen also joined Buttface and started to attack that abode with him.
Xu Que continued to refine the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. Although he had killed those Deacons with the help of the two souls, the fight had also caused a great consumption in the energy of the two souls. They looked as if they were about to disappear soon. Too much time had been wasted before the attack of the two souls. Although Xu Que had earned a lot of Acting Tough Points, he felt as if he had still suffered a loss because of the dissipation of the two souls. And it was turning out to be very difficult for him to obtain the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines.
Xu Que had learned a lot from this fight. The two souls wouldn't attack immediately if his opponents had no killing intent or were intimidated when they saw the two souls. When Xu Que forced his opponents to show some killing intent, the two souls had suffered too much dissipation.
So, when Xu Que confronted powerful opponents in the future, he had to take the risk of his opponents deciding on their own that they wanted to kill Xu Que. In this way, he could release the two souls when his opponents were about to attack.
After all, Xu Que was not sure he could get enough Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines for the recovery of the two souls. He had refined 100 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines, but the two souls had not fully recovered yet!
They almost dissipated completely after being released. And their dissipation could only be slowed when they were sent back into the Firestorm Wheels. Xu Que had to help them recover with the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. Then he had to maintain their status with the liquid of the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines.
Luckily, Xu Que still had some Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines left. The two souls had fully recovered when he had refined 150 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. Now, Xu Que had refined the last 30 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines into liquid. He wrapped the Firestorm Wheels with the liquid, so that he could maintain the existence of the two souls.
The Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines were just like the point cards of online games, which could be run out slowly as time went by. Once all the point cards had been used up, the player was not able to log in to the game.
"D*mn! It seems I have to collect some Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines when this issue has been resolved. Otherwise, I'm afraid I will lose these two souls soon!" Xu Que clenched his teeth, because he felt great pressure.
However, no matter how great the pressure, the two souls had been fully recovered now, which meant he could use them to kill his opponents again.
Now, Xu Que needed to find out whether the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus was in this abode or not. If he was in the abode, Xu Que would kill him without hesitation, even if he was under the protection of his guardians.
How could pathetic ants like you cast greedy eyes on my woman?
You are the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus! But who cares?
Because I have the Holy Physique!

BOOM!
With a big bang, the door of the abode was open at last!
Buttface ran away from any possible dangers without hesitation. His speed was so fast that the others were impressed.
Mo Junchen was surprised by Buttface's sudden move. He thought Buttface had been frightened away by powerful enemies. So he also stepped back as he prepared to defend himself with magic arts.
All of a sudden, Buttface, who was still running, figured out what the situation was in the abode. So he stopped abruptly. HOWL! He shouted at Mo, "Guardian Mo, why are you stepping back? There is nothing in that abode. Don't be afraid!"
"….." Mo Junchen also stopped and murmured to himself, "Why did you run so fast when you knew there was nothing in it?"
"That's enough! Let's go into this abode and check it out. I believe there are many dirty things in it. We have to clean it up. Then we will blow up this abode. After all, this place is so ugly that it could defame the entire Heaven Palace Academy!" At this time, Xu Que walked up and looked at the things inside the abode. Then he shook his head disdainfully.
Duan Jiude also walked up and said with puzzlement, "Holy sh*t! Little brat, since when are you so demanding? Look at the luxurious renovation and these precious items! Why did you say this place is dirty?"
Apparently, what Duan Jiude said was correct. The abode was luxuriously renovated. Thousands of precious pill bottles were placed on a large wooden shelf on the wall.
A lot of magic weapons and armors were fixed to the other wall of the abode.
A table and chairs were placed in the center of the abode, and there were also a bed and a futon that were used for cultivation. There were also magic artifacts made with some special techniques. What a superb collection of precious items!
"Heh! Duan Jiude, your cultivation stage is too low. You can't see everyth When you feel and treat them with your heart sincerely, you will find things that seem good are actually dirty. All right! Since I am here today, let me take all these things, although I don't really want them at all!" Xu Que said as he stepped into the abode.
Almost at the same time, he waved his hand. All the pills and magic artifacts in the abode were swept away immediately.
"Holy sh*t! Damn! Little brat, why are you so greedy? Why did you take away all these precious items? You should at least have left something for me!" Duan Jiude said with a long face as he ran into the abode rapidly.
WHOOSH!
Suddenly, a black figure rushed into the abode with Duan Jiude. It was Buttface!
The next moment, Buttface opened the storage package in his belly.
BOOM!
The bed, table, chairs, and all the rest of the furniture were absorbed into Buttface's package instantly.
Now the big abode was completely empty. Not even a speck of dust could be found in this place.
"Sh*t!" Duan Jiude cursed regretfully because he had forgotten just how despicable Xu Que and Buttface could be!
He had failed to obtain any precious items from this abode! How could he stay calm?
Standing beside them, Mo Junchen was dumbfounded and once again had the feeling that his outlook on life, values, and the world had changed again.
Xu Que and Buttface had divided the plunder rapidly and left no time for Mo Junchen to react. In such a short time, the luxuriously renovated abode had become an empty cave!
Their skillful technique revealed the fact that they had done this kind of thing many times before.
"Heh! Heh! Mr. Duan, you should work harder in the future!" Buttface teased as he looked at Duan Jiude proudly.
Duan Jiude sighed, "As expected, I am always a little bit slower than you!"
"It's okay! Just work harder in the future!" Buttface consoled him by patting his shoulder.
"Okay! Mr. Buttface, let's drive each other to do better!" Duan Jiude replied, nodding his head.
Seeing this harmonious scene, Mo Junchen couldn't help but laugh to himself.
"Work harder?"
"Drive each other to do better?"
"How could they use these inspirational words when they were talking about dividing plunder?"
"OK! Stop wasting time here. Just blow up this abode. It is so f*cking ugly. Ouch! My eyes! Just blow it up or my eyes will be wounded!" Xu Que shouted as he covered his eyes.
"No problem! Let me handle this!" Buttface was quite interested in things like this. He took out a large barrel of oil and poured it into the abode.
Duan Jiude also took out many explosive spells and attached all of these spells to the walls and even the door of the abode!
After finishing the preparation, Xu Que covered the abode with the Divine Aperture��s Shell to isolate the noise. Then he threw a strand of mystical fire into the abode.
The next moment, all of them jumped up into the sky. Then, with a deafening explosion, the abode was ruined.
Fortunately, Xu Que had isolated the noise to avoid startling Jiang Hongyan.
After the explosion, the abode had been turned into a heap of rubble. Half of the small mountain had disappeared and the rest of the mountain was cracking slowly!
Buttface shouted as he waved his paws, "Cool!"
Duan Jiude, "So cool!"
Xu Que, "So d*mn cool!"
Xu Que was quite satisfied. He really wanted to know the reaction of that Divine Being of Taoist Fetus of the Sage Sect when he saw this scene.
Unfortunately, the Diving Being of Taoist Fetus was not here. Maybe he was not even in the Heaven Palace Academy at all.
After all, Xu Que hadn't sensed his aura.
As a cultivator who had toughened his physique, Xu Que believed the aura of the Divine Being of Taoist Fetus must be different from that of ordinary cultivators.
"Little brat, what are you going to do now? According to my calculations, Hongyan will be finished with her secluded cultivation in two months. Should we stay here and wait for her?" Liu Jingning asked as she looked at Xu Que with a smile.
"She will finish her secluded cultivation in two months?" Xu Que was stunned by her words. Then he remembered that Jiang Hongyan and the others had arrived at the Heaven Continent five to six years ahead of him. Buttface had mentioned that Jiang Hongyan had been performing secluded cultivation for several years. Now, even Liu Jingning knew that Jiang Hongyan would finish her secluded cultivation in two months. Xu Que was quite glad to hear that.
"Actually, I want to stay here to wait for her. But I'm afraid the two souls can't last that long." Xu Que shook his head and was worried as he thought of the two souls in the Firestorm Wheels.
He could take them back to the ancestral grave of the Heaven Palace Academy. In this way, he wouldn't need to worry about the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines anymore.
However, if he really sent these two souls back into the grave, how could he defeat the people from the three families if they really decided to avenge their sovereigns? At that time, even if he could go back to the ancestral grave and retrieve the two souls, he wouldn't have enough Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines to help them recover for an attack.
"Little brat, I have a bold idea!" Buttface said as he looked at Xu Que with a weird smile.
BANG!
Duan Jiude also shouted, "Holy sh*t! I also have a bold idea!"
"Oh? Does it mean…could it be that…" Xu Que's eyes lit up as he looked at Duan Jiude and Buttface.
"Right! That is exactly what we are thinking now!" Buttface and Duan Jiude nodded their heads at the same time.
"Isn't it a bad idea?" Xu Que asked with a smile and it seemed as if he didn't care about that so-called bad idea at all.
"Bullsh*t!" Buttface shouted loudly, "There are three scenic spots you must visit in the Exploding Heavens Faction! The ancestral grave! The treasure house!"
"The ancestral grave? The treasure house?"
"You only mentioned two of them. What is the third one?" Liu Jingning asked with puzzlement.
"The third one is a place that is only accessible to me!" Xu Que said as he looked at Liu Jingning.
Liu Jingning was surprised by his reply, "What is this place?"
Xu Que replied with a smile, "Your heart!"
Chapter 1339: It's Just for Fun!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Buttface believed the happiest moment in his life was enjoying Smelly Tofu for the first time!
And this present moment would be the most joyful moment in his life!
Xu Que and his teammates were standing outside the Heaven Palace Academy's treasure house with delighted and eager smiles on their faces.
With the Deputy Dean's Token of Passing, Xu Que could go to all the places in the Heaven Palace Academy freely. This treasure house, which was protected by the most powerful restrictive spells, was exceptional.
Buttface and Duan Jiude had tried their best to get into this place. But all their efforts had failed. Thanks to Xu Que's token, they could get into this place easily. How could they stay calm?
"I am going to succeed in the place where I previously failed! Today, this place will absolutely be emptied by me!" Buttface shouted, raising his paws to get rid of the frustration he had felt.
"Oh, yes! I totally agree with you!" Duan Jiude also shouted.
Xu Que rolled his eyes and said with embarrassment, "Don't be so despicable! We should stick to our bottom line! According to the rules of the Exploding Heavens Faction, we shall just have a look in this place, and we won't touch even a needle or a piece of thread! Understand?"
Hearing this, Mo Junchen was shocked as he thought, "Do members of the Exploding Heavens Faction really have this bottom line?
"They won't even touch a needle or a piece of thread! And they will only have a look in this treasure house! Could it be possible?"
After a short while, his doubts were blown away when Buttface said as he made funny faces, "We got you! We will take away everything except a needle and a piece of thread!"
"Right!" Xu Que nodded his head satisfactorily. Principle and bottom line are always important for an organization!
Mo Junchen almost spat blood after hearing that. It turned out that they would only leave a needle and a piece of thread in this place!
"Little brat, just open the door! I've run out of patience!" Buttface urged.
Hearing this, Xu Que smiled and placed the token on the door of the treasure house!
BOOM!
Along with a big bang, the last restrictive spells on the door were canceled. The massive door opened slowly, creating a huge noise.
However, this place was full of all kinds of restrictive spells. The apprentices of the academy didn't have many reasons to approach this area. So nobody was startled by the noise they were making.
When the door was opened, a cloud of magnificent Celestial and Spiritual Qi gushed into their faces, which was very refreshing.
Apparently, numerous precious elixirs were kept in the treasure house.
All of them were shocked when they saw the inner structure of the treasure house.
Like a tower or a famous museum, this treasure house had more than ten floors. There was a wooden spiral staircase at the center. Countless pills, elixirs, and magic art books were placed on the four walls. On the topmost floor, they saw many magic artifacts and even Celestial Artifacts!
"Hah! Hah! They are all mine!" Buttface laughed and was about to rush into the treasure house.
Xu Que's expression got crafty and he pressed Buttface to the ground. Then he looked into the treasure house carefully.
Under the wooden staircase, there was an old man sitting.
The old man had his eyes closed as if he was taking a rest. His aura was concealed. However, Xu Que felt upset when he saw this old man.
Obviously, this was another extremely powerful cultivator!
"What?"
At this time, the old man, who seemed to have just woken up, opened his eyes and said in surprise as he looked at Xu Que and his teammates, "Why are so many people here? Does it mean the academy is holding a contest? Okay! Just show me the personal instructions of the Dean!"
"Personal instructions? What are you talking about? Old man, look at the man who is standing beside me! He is the new Deputy Dean of the academy!" Buttface opened his eyes wide and shouted at the old man as he pointed at Xu Que.
Buttface was also surprised by the old man, because he had fixed his eyes on the precious items in the treasure house and didn't expect anyone was staying here.
"The new Deputy Dean?" The old man frowned and said as he looked at Xu Que, shaking his head, "The Deputy Dean has the right to come into this place. You can read all the magic art books here. But you are not allowed to take away anything from this place unless you can show me the personal instructions of the Dean!"
After saying that, the old man closed his eyes and continued to have his rest.
Apparently, the old man thought Xu Que and his teammates had come here to read the magic art books. So he didn't think too much about them and ignored them after explaining the rules of the treasure house to them.
Hearing this, Xu Que and his teammates were quite disappointed.
It turned out that they could only take away the things in the treasure house with the personal instructions of the Dean!
D*mn! We are in a lot of trouble now!
"Little brat, what should we do now?" Buttface asked by sending a message to Xu Que. Actually, he tried to ask whether Xu Que would plunder this place by releasing the two souls!
"Let's check those magic art books first!"
Xu Que said as he shook his head after a short hesitation.
He was also thinking about this issue and frowning. If he released the two souls, he was quite sure he could empty this place. However, once he released the souls, he would have to recover them with the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. Otherwise, the two souls would disappear forever.
Before releasing the souls, he had to check whether he could find the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines or other elixirs with similar effects in this treasure house!
If the loot would be enough to recover the consumption of the two souls, this treasure house was worth plundering as long as the two souls could deter that old man.
Xu Que and his teammates started to walk around the treasure house.
Xu Que found countless magic arts and elixirs. But he couldn't find any Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. He found some elixirs with similar effects, but the quantities were very low.
It didn't mean the Heaven Palace Academy was not wealthy. Some elixirs in this treasure house were much more precious than the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. But Xu Que didn't need those elixirs at this moment.
"D*mn! I have failed to find even one Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vine here!" Buttface cursed ruefully after checking this place carefully several times.
"It is the special elixir of the Divine Farmer Clan! It is quite difficult for the rest of the sects to obtain this elixir. And that's why it is so precious!" Liu Jingning said, shaking her head. She hadn't realized that not one Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vine could be found in the Heaven Palace Academy!
In comparison, those guardians from the Divine Farmer Clan had given 200 Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines to Xu Que, which meant that they were really sincere and the cost had not been too high for them.
"Little brat, what should we do now? Will we just give up?" Buttface asked reluctantly as he looked at Xu Que.
He couldn't stand that he was not able to take anything when there were so many precious items!
"I have an idea!"
Duan Jiude said in a low voice with a smile. "We can go back to the Divine Farmer Clan first! Then we will return… Heh! Heh! Heh!"
"No, this is too troublesome. When Li Qingshan, Li Qinghe, and their underlings come back, it will be quite difficult for us to plunder this place!" Buttface said, shaking his head.
An idea occurred to Xu Que. He said, frowning, "What Duan Jiude said is correct! We should go to the Divine Farmer Clan first, because we can't plunder the treasure house of the Heaven Palace Academy now!"
"Why?" Buttface was surprised by Xu Que's words.
"Don't forget Hongyan is still performing secluded cultivation here. If we offend the Heaven Palace Academy, we can't ensure the safety of Hongyan even if we have the assistance of the two souls! We should play for time by going to the Divine Farmer Clan first. When we come back, Hongyan will have finished her secluded cultivation. At that time, we will plunder the treasure house and leave together with Hongyan! Isn't that a perfect plan?" Xu Que said with a smile.
Hearing this, Buttface said by nodding his head, "Okay! I will leave the precious items here temporarily. But, little brat, don't try to take exclusive possession of these items. You should learn to share with us!"
"Calm down! Actually, these items are useless for me. If I really decide to plunder them, it will be just for fun!" Xu Que said with a faint smile.
Buttface and Duan Jiude smiled after hearing this. Heh! This guy is acting tough again!
