Chapter 1430: A Big Wave of Matters!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Brother Xu, why not listen to my sister. Let's go to the backyard for a while and wait for the Drug God to leave, then we…" Ji Wuyun looked at Xu Que hesitatingly and asked him in a low voice.
After all, in the beginning, he didn't know that his family was going to invite the Drug God. Now, with things as they were, if Xu Que and his party left and bumped into the Divine Farmer Clan, a battle would be unavoidable.
If the two sides fought, Ji Wuyun would be put into a tough situation. He'd made a promise to Xu Que, so he had to help him, but his identity was as a proud son of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect. If he got involved, it could easily implicate the entire Ji Family.
Therefore, the person in the most difficult situation was undoubtedly Ji Wuyun.
"Brother Ji, you don't have to worry. I understand what you're saying, but my decision has already been made," Xu Que said with a wave of his hand, his attitude firm.
Now that he'd returned, there was no reason to keep a low profile. He could conveniently take this opportunity to behead the Drug God of the Divine Farmer Clan and use him to make an example to others, announcing his arrival to the Heaven Continent.
"Hmph!" At this moment, Buttface snorted disdainfully, glanced at Ji Wuyun, and said, "Brother Ji, don't mind my harsh words, but your Ji Family really can't tell the good from the bad. Our Exploding Heavens Faction Leader, his wife, the assistant faction leader, and various elders have come as guests, and you want us to live in the backyard. What a great humiliation!"
"That's right," Duan Jiude nodded.
"This…" Ji Wuyun opened his mouth suddenly, with a bitter expression on his face, and said, "You have misunderstood. Our backyard is as nice as a VIP lounge. After all, my elder brother was the chosen Son."
"Don't say anymore. This isn��t a problem of a living environment, but a matter of dignity. Throughout my life, I've never had the habit of dodging things. I didn't have it in the past, I don't have it now, and I will not have it in the future," Xu Que said with a wave of his hands. His words were powerful, resonating, and resounding.
"Brother Xu, listen to me. This backyard is where our Ji Family lives. My elder brother lives there, and my sister also lives there…"
"Oh? Really?" Xu Que suddenly nodded, "Well then."
"Eh?" Ji Wuyun panicked for a moment. "What does Brother Xu mean?"
"We've decided to stay," Xu Que said seriously, following which, a bright smile lit up his face. "Are you surprised? Is this unexpected? Are you happy?"
"Ah?" Ji Wuyun froze. He was caught off guard. "How quickly this fellow changed his mind!"
Indeed, this was a pleasant, unexpected surprise, and he was very happy. At the very least, he didn't need to worry about having a conflict with the Drug God.
"Sh*t!" Buttface and Duan Jiude looked at Xu Que in astonishment.
"Kid, this can't be. What are you doing?" Buttface asked in a scornful manner.
"Sh*t, how dare you play like this in front of my grand master?" Duan Jiude was also exasperated.
The two clearly knew what was going on as they understood Xu Que's style. It was obvious that he'd only changed his mind after hearing that Ji Wuyun's sister also lived in the backyard.
Xu Que's expression was indifferent. He glanced at Buttface and Duan Jiude and shook his head. "Please keep your filthy thoughts to yourselves. I'm not such a loose person." He snorted.
Buttface and Duan Jiude were disdainful. "You're not a loose person?"
Xu Que opened his mouth and said, "Will the two of you please keep quiet. I have a new plan for this wave."
"What plan? What you just want to do is to make a mess," Duan Jiude responded.
"What do you know? This time I mean it. He's only a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven. There's no reason for us to avoid him, but it would be very suitable to create a big wave." Xu Que's eyes narrowed slightly, and an intriguing smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
As soon as Buttface and Duan Jiude saw his expression, their eyes brightened and their spirits raised up.
"Sh*t, lad, tell us quickly. What big things are you planning to do?"
"I want to hear too. How do you intend to play this?"
Buttface and Duan Jiude couldn't control their excitement and asked questions, one after the other.
Xu Que smiled. "If we live in the backyard of the Ji Family at first, the Ji Family will definitely take precautions to prevent the Drug God from knowing about our existence. So the situation becomes that as we are in the dark, he is out in the open. If we want to stir up some trouble, how could it be too difficult for us?"
"Well, now that you say it like that, it makes sense." Buttface nodded with understanding.
"That's a lousy reason. Just a trivial True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, why not kill him?" Duan Jiude shouted.
"Oh, killing a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven isn't a big deal?" Xu Que shook his head and smiled: "In the past, that might have been a big deal. But now the Celestial King is rampant. I'm sorry, but killing a trivial True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven won't satisfy me."
HISS!
Buttface suddenly took in a breath of cold air. Looking surprised, he asked, "Little fellow, you… Do you really want to do a big wave of things? You can't be thinking of killing those Celestial Kings?"
"Hee, hee." Xu Que smiled and said nothing.
Duan Jiude's eye got wide. "Sh*t, kid, don't go too far. Although my grand master is powerful, if you provoke a Celestial King, she may not be able to fix it."
"Relax, I didn't plan to get your grand master involved. I have seen the terrifying Spiritual Qi outside. If it can be used to kill a few immortal kings, there will be no big problem." Xu Que smiled complacently.
Originally, he had coveted the terrifying Spiritual Qi outside Tian Sha City and thought that if he had an opportunity in the future he would use the Tough-Acting King's Purple-Gold Rod to suck away a portion of it.
And just now when he'd turned to leave, he'd seen the terrifying Spiritual Qi again, and, with a flash of inspiration, suddenly thought of a large formation that could conveniently use the Spiritual Qi to kill people.
So he'd changed his mind and decided to stay.
If he wanted to stir up trouble, he would stir up big trouble!
He wanted to let the whole Heaven Continent know that he was here!
"Oh, ho, ho, ho… this is his plan, I like it!" Duan Jiude immediately became interested. He liked digging graves and attacking people.
"I'm also very happy with this plan," Buttface shouted in a mix of Mandarin and Cantonese, his eyes already shining.
"The opportunity for the Exploding Heavens Faction to make a name for itself is here," Duan Jiude began to think about the future, and he was looking forward to it.
Xu Que smiled as he said, "In fact, I didn't want to do this, but they left me no choice. Since they want to stir up trouble, then I will gladly accommodate them."
"Lad, you must think clearly. In case the other party has a fairy of the Celestial Prime level, and it investigates afterward, what should we do? That can't be solved by terrifying Spiritual Qi," Buttface suddenly became rational and thought about the consequences.
Xu Que's eyes slightly narrowed again. "Hey, I didn't say we were just using Spiritual Qi to resolve our problems. The formation of terrifying Spiritual Qi is just an appetizer. The real nightmare will be coming later!"
Chapter 1431: Ji Family's Backyard
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Xu Que and his group decided to stay in the backyard of the Ji Family after all.
This was the territory of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect. The Ji Family only occupied a part of it, and this backyard was where some of the outstanding younger generations of the Ji Family lived.
After Xu Que and the others had arranged to stay, the Ji Family sent someone over to serve them. Ostensibly, this person was sent to serve them, but in reality he'd been given a kind of supervisory role to keep an eye on the guests and prevent them from running around on the premises and being noticed by the Drug God of the Divine Farmer Clan.
Obviously, this had been arranged by Ji Qinghan. She hadn't reported the news about Xu Que's group arriving and had decided single-handedly to keep it under wraps.
Ji Wuyun also felt stressed about this situation, but, for the safety of the Ji Family, he could only pretend not to know anything about what was going on. In order to show how sorry he was to his guests, he'd come to inform Xu Que specifically that the magic items he had lent Xu Que's father didn't need to be returned.
Xu Que had never even entertained the thought of returning them, but he still had to be polite, so he embraced Ji Wuyun and spouted some words that seemed to come from the bottom of his heart.
"Brother Ji, the saying goes that if one returns what one borrows, it won't be difficult if one needs to borrow again. The things my father borrowed must be returned. If you don't let my father return them, you are looking down on our Xu Family," Xu Que was firm and unyielding and spoke with conviction.
Ji Wuyun was stunned by Xu Que's intensity, and he felt as if Xu Que was about to stab him if he didn't let Xu Que's father return the Celestial Artifact.
In desperation, Ji Wuyun could only smile bitterly and nod, "Since Brother Xu thinks that…"
PAH!
Before he could finish his sentence, Xu Que suddenly placed one hand heavily on Ji Wuyun's shoulder and gave him a warm hug, "My good brother, you don't have to say anymore. I understand you. Seeing how sincere you are, I'll reluctantly accept this kind offer on behalf of my father, and he can keep the artifact."
Xu Que had a rueful expression. Pointing at Ji Wuyun, he shook his head and said, "I really don't know how to describe you. I've never met such a generous person. I'll take you as my brother."
"Eh?" Ji Wuyun suddenly felt a little confused and was dazed for a moment before reacting and accepting this offer. He nodded in confusion and laughed, "My good brother."
As he left Xu Que, his mind was still trying to grasp what had happened just now.
Buttface, Duan Jiude, and the others witnessed this scene and were all speechless.
"No way. With regard to shamelessness and swindling, no one could compare to Xu Que."
"Invincible!"
"Awesome!"
Buttface and Duan Jiude gave Xu Que a huge thumbs-up.
Mo Junchen shook his head and smiled, already accustomed to Xu Que, Duan Jiude, and Buttface, and no longer surprised by their behavior.
Liu Jingning sat quietly on the side, looking from time to time to the similarly quiet Zixia Fairy, who was also looking at Liu Jingning from time to time.
This atmosphere around these two women was strange. It was as if two little wildcats were eyeing each other, ready to fight.
"Okay, let's go back to our own rooms and rest here for two days," Xu Que saw that something was wrong and hurriedly rushed everyone away.
No one had asked many questions about him changing his mind and his decision to stay.
After all, everyone was clear that the Drug God of the Divine Farmer Clan was not a threat to them at all. When Xu Que suddenly said that he wanted to stay, according to his past behavior, they knew that he was up to no good.
But since he didn't say anything about it, Mo Junchen didn't ask much.
Liu Jingning and Zixia Fairy gazed at each other, not bothering about what Xu Que wanted to do.
In their eyes, it seemed as if Xu Que's plan was not as important as their current staring battle.
That day, the backyard of the Ji Family was calm.
…..
The main hall of the Ji Family residence was really lively. Almost all of the important members of the Ji Family were present, ready to meet the Drug God of the Divine Farmer Clan. Even the other influential figures of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect had come to meet the Drug God in person.
"I've heard of the reputation of the Drug God for such a long time, and today I finally have a chance to meet you. It's really an honor for me." The voice of the Master of the Chang Family of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect rang out.
He laughed heartily and made great strides across the room, but the eyes of everyone in the main hall were focused on the middle-aged man beside him.
"What's going on? How did the Drug God get together with the Master of the Chang Family?" In the main hall, Ji Qinghan's expression suddenly changed.
It should have been her who personally welcomed the Drug God but, because of Xu Que and the others, she'd rushed back to arrange their residence as well as conceal their whereabouts. She'd missed the opportunity to welcome the Drug God and could only wait in the main hall.
However, she'd taken care to send other members of the Ji Family to greet the Drug God, and she hadn't expected the Master of the Chang Family to appear.
For a long time in the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect, the Chang Family was the biggest rival of the Ji Family. When Ji Wufeng had lost the position of Divine Son due to his sickness, it was subsequently taken away by Chang Wuwei, the younger generation of the Chang Family!
Now that the Ji Family was pinning all their hopes on the Drug God, him coming together with the Master of the Chang Family caused the faces of the Ji Family to darken.
Several other influential figures of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect who were originally on the Ji Family's side also frowned at this moment.
"Well, you are all here, what a coincidence! I was just about to go out and bumped into the Drug God. We've hit it off well right from the start and had a good conversation!" At this time, the head of the Chang Family walked into the main hall and looked at the Ji Family in surprise, his eyes full of mockery.
Although the Drug God had the face of a middle-aged man, he had an extraordinary temperament and was elegant, which was quite remarkable. At this moment, he was expressionless. As he entered the main hall with the head of the Chang Family, he didn't once make eye contact with the Ji Family.
This made the hearts of the Ji Family sink.
When the Drug God had previously talked to them about things, their conversation had been full of laughter. Today, from his attitude, it was evident that something must be wrong.
"Sir, you must be tired after traveling here," Ji Qinghan couldn't be bothered to guess what was wrong and hurriedly came forward to welcome the Drug God to his seat with a smile.
After which, a strange atmosphere fell upon the main hall.
The Master of the Chang Family kept saying irrelevant words to praise the Drug God. When the Ji Family intentionally directed the conversation toward curing illness, they were always interrupted by the Master of the Chang Family.
What made the Ji Family despair was that the Drug God had actually answered all the useless questions of the Master of the Chang Family. For the whole day, everyone only talked about unimportant matters and never talked about the important ones.
It was only as night fell that the main hall became calm.
The Drug God had arranged to stay in the backyard of the Chang Family. The Ji Family seemed to have guessed what was going on, and all of their expressions were overcast. The Master of the Ji Family had an especially dark expression.
This wasn't the first time something like this had happened, but this time it concerned the Divine Son position of Ji Wufeng, as well as the position of the Ji Family in the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect. Nothing could go wrong.
In the end, the Ji Family, including Ji Qinghan and Ji Wuyun, left the main hall frowning. As the elders of the Ji Family left, it was evident that this matter could only be discussed internally.
At the same time, the Ji Family's backyard, which had been calm for a day, began to have some activity.
In the dark of night, a dog and an old man snuck over to Xu Que's room.
The three of them cast a Concealing Spell and, isolating their breathing and voices, sat down face to face and began to talk in low voices.
Gradually, their voices became louder, as if they were in some sort of dispute. They were engaged in a heated argument, especially Duan Jiude, whose veins were bulging on his neck as he was shouting hysterically.
Chapter 1432: Oh No, There's Trouble!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Sh*t. I have a spell for backstabbing. Why can't I use it?" Duan Jiude was unusually excited and felt insulted. He stared questioningly at Buttface and Xu Que.
Fortunately, a Shielding Spell had been set up around them, otherwise this would've disturbed the Ji Family's entire backyard.
"If I say it won't work, it means it won't work. If you don't believe me, ask the little lad," Buttface scoffed disdainfully and pointed at Xu Que.
Xu Que seemed to be in deep thought, "What Buttface said is right. Your spell isn't cunning enough. Backstabbing is child's play and not impressive at all."
"That's right, it's simply not worthy of our Exploding Heavens Faction. Come look at this, the spells that I've come up with are obviously much better," Buttface said, laying out a model of the Spell Disk.
The Spell Disk was a layout that set out all spells, showing their effects. However, in order to really let these spells achieve their full power, the people using them had to go to the scenes to arrange them in person.
When Duan Jiude looked at them, he immediately yelled, "You old fart, aren't you just adding a bit more venom in this formation? What's so great about it?"
"Oh, it's better than backstabbing."
"Sh*t! Buttface, you want to fight? I'm willing to."
"That's enough. Both of you stop. What's there to fight about? Can't you just combine the two formations?"
"Combine?"
"Oh, that makes sense. After combining them, it'll become backstabbing with a poisoned knife?"
"No, no, you can also upgrade it a little bit and make it even better. Such as coating a knife with poison and attacking the head."
"Sh*t, that's disgusting."
…..
They stayed up all night, discussing their killing plans, and also playing a few rounds of cards…
In the end, hundreds of spells were successfully arranged and combined into one. Overnight, they slipped out of Tian Sha City and set the spells.
…..
The sky gradually brightened, and many disciples of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect were already sitting cross-legged, facing the rising sun to absorb Qi.
The door of the attic in the Ji Family's backyard was pushed open.
Several elders of the Ji Family came out of the door frowning, their faces full of fatigue. A night without sleep wasn't that much for a cultivator.
But the Ji Family had spent the whole night discussing their next moves, as well as how to persuade the Drug God to help them.
They really couldn't figure out what the Chang Family had promised to the Drug God, and why the attitude of the Drug God had changed so much. It clearly meant that he stood on the side of the Chang Family.
"Qinghan!"
As Ji Qinghan walked into the attic, a slightly tired elderly voice stopped her.
Ji Qinghan paused for a moment, then turned to answer, "Grandpa, I am here!"
"You should test the waters with the Drug God, but don't tell Wufeng about this. He's in the sick bay, focusing on recovering. Don't disturb him," the old man said, sighing.
He was the Master of the Ji Family, and although he'd reached the True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, he was also an old man.
There are ancestors of the Celestial Kings in the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect. The future of the Ji Family depended on Ji Wufeng. If Ji Wufeng can't regain the position of the Divine Son, the Ji Family was unlikely to have a future.
"Yes, grandpa, I understand," Ji Qinghan nodded. There were some things that she knew she should do even without the Master mentioning them.
"Well, we have to try to reach an agreement. Remember not to upset the Drug God. Even if he doesn't help this time, we can't offend him," the Master reminded her.
Ji Qinghan nodded again, "Grandpa, I know. But…if he refuses to help, what should we do?"
"If Wufeng's illness is really incurable, maybe…it's time to let Wuyun try to fight for the position of the Divine Son," the Master said faintly, his voice full of loneliness and helplessness.
Ji Qinghan fell silent and stood still for a moment, but she didn't say anything else. She bid farewell to the Master, then left.
…..
At the same time, in the backyard of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect's Chang Family, three figures like ghosts were clinging tightly to the wall and perfectly avoiding detection by the many guards.
After some searching, they swiftly slipped into a room, set up a Shielding Spell, and pulled out a stick. With a smirk on their faces, they quietly approached a middle-aged man nearby who sitting on the ground cultivating.
PENG! PENG! PENG!
After a few seconds, amid a few muffled sounds, the middle-aged man fell to the ground and into a coma. There were several swollen patches on the back of his head.
"Sh*t! Teacher Buttface, aren't you being too harsh?"
"Teacher Duan, you have the nerve to say that to me? You've made him more swollen than I have."
"Hee, hee, hee, lad, I have to say, your Divine Aperture's Shell is really useful. Even a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven can't detect us."
"Oh, I've already told you that a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven counts as nothing. Okay, don't nag, quickly pack up, and act according to the plan."
"Okay, I'll tell grand master and the others first. I'm afraid the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect is going to be in a big mess soon."
"Hee, hee, hee, I'm afraid the whole Tian Sha City is going to be in a mess. Thinking about it makes me so excited!"
…..
After a while, the three figures slipped out of the room, but this time they were carrying a person wrapped up in a bundle. They quietly exited the backyard of the Chang Family home. The whole process had gone extremely smoothly.
As the sky brightened more, the children of the major families in the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect became active, and the number of people going in and out of the backyard increased significantly.
However, everyone who passed the chamber didn't notice anything unusual.
Four hours later, with a smile on his face, the Master of the Chang Family, walking slowly, came over with a large group of people.
"Drug God, did you have a good rest last night? A few friends of mine have come to visit you. I wonder if it's convenient for you?" As the group of people arrived at the room, the Master of the Chang family took the initiative and asked.
The level and status of the Master of the Chang Family were no lower than the Drug God. Hence, he only spoke politely and lowered his posture slightly.
He also believed that the Drug God would definitely meet with him. After all, he'd come to discuss the cooperation that the two men had agreed upon.
However, the room was silent, and there was no response.
The smile on the Master of the Chang Family's face gradually vanished, and he frowned.
Groaning a bit, he stepped forward to the door and gently knocked twice, "Drug God, are you okay?"
The room remained quiet.
This scared the Master of the Chang Family, and he felt that something was definitely wrong.
As he was about to push open the door, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"So you're already here. I wanted to talk to the Drug God about something, so I've come to visit. Please don't be surprised!"
"Eh?" The Master of the Chang Family froze and turned his head. It was Qinghan.
The place where the Chang Family lived and also where the Ji Family and other clan forces lived were all within the territory of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect. The whole territory of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect could be said to be a combination of several large families.
Ji Qinghan coming over here at this moment was not unusual and didn't require permission from the Chang Family.
However, the Master of the Chang family was at present dumbfounded.
He'd initially thought that the Drug God wasn't in the room because he might've been attracted by the new conditions offered by the Ji Family, so he'd left overnight.
But now that Ji Qinghan had come over and said that she wanted to talk to the Drug God, the Master of the Chang family was relieved.
"So it's Qinghan!"
The Master of the Chang Family smiled and waved his hand, "You're welcome here. Everyone is from the same sect. But…"
The Master of the Chang family paused for a moment, pretending to feel awkward, "But I'm afraid the Drug God doesn't have time to see you at the moment. I think something urgent must have come up. Please leave now."
He gestured toward the guard to move her out.
Ji Qinghan didn't move and smiled, "Elder Chang, I only want to see a glimpse of the Drug God. Why are you so protective?"
"Ha, ha, ha, what do you mean? I'm not being protective. I'm just afraid that you'll disturb his rest. This is not the way of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect." The Master smiled shallowly.
"Elder Chang, you should know that the Drug God had originally been invited by me. Now that I've come to see him, how can it be seen as disturbing him? You…" Ji Qinghan answered calmly.
Before she'd finished her sentence, there was a commotion in the front yard of the Chang Family's house, followed by the sound of heavy footsteps. There was someone rushing over here.
"Bad news! Master, bad news! Something's gone wrong!" A young disciple of the Chang Family hurried in panicked, bowing and shouting.
The Master of the Chang Family immediately frowned and said in a deep voice, "Scoundrel, why do you need to be so panicked? Can't you stand up and speak properly?"
"Yes, sir!" The young disciple immediately stood up straight, lifted his head, and said, "The Drug God was captured and tied to the wall at the gates of our city. He seems to have been beaten, and rather badly."
"What?" Everyone present, including the Master of the Chang Family and Ji Qinghan, stood open-mouthed with shocked expressions.
"The Drug God was captured? Hanging on the gates? And he's been badly beaten? How…how could that be?"
The young disciple of the Chang Family had a bitter expression. "Master, you should go and see for yourself. This was done by the Exploding Heavens Faction. Now, they're at the gates of the city, saying they want to play with some magic about greatly changing a live person, and in the end…in the end…"
"Scoundrel. This is outrageous!" The Master of the Chang family was furious, trembling with anger, and he yelled, "What happened? If you stammer again, I'll punish your entire family."
"Master, pardon me."
The young disciple of the Chang Family jumped up and responded quickly, "In the end, they are throwing poop on the body of the Drug God and are providing a paid service. With one piece of magical Spirit Stones, you can have ten throws, and throwing at different parts of the body gives you different rewards. Apparently throwing into the mouth will gain the thrower an Inferior Celestial Artifact as a reward, and many surrounding cultivators are all having a go!"
Chapter 1433: Incomprehensible
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The courtyard of the Chang Family of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect was dead silent at the moment.
Everyone, including Ji Qinghan, was dumbfounded, totally not expecting that this kind of thing could happen.
The Drug God was actually on the premises of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect, tied to the gates of Tian Sha City, where he was having poop thrown at him.
"How was this possible?"
The Drug God was a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven. How could he have been captured so easily?
To be able to do this, one must have been at least a grand master or a Celestial King.
"How can this be, what exactly happened? How could the people from the Exploding Heavens Faction appear in Tian Sha City?" the Master of the Chang Family was furious, and he roared loudly.
The impact of this incident was going to be extremely great. If the Drug God had been captured in the middle of his journey, it would've had little to do with them. But now he'd been captured in the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect, and this had only happened after he'd moved into the backyard of the Chang Family, which meant that the Chang Family now needed to take the main responsibility.
In the future, when the Divine Farmer Clan investigated this incident, the Chang Family would definitely be blamed. For the Chang Family, who were currently desperate for development and status, the capture of the Drug God was a huge blow.
Therefore, the Master of the Chang Family was already angry enough to lose his mind. His entire body was shaking and his eyes were bright red. He wanted to kill someone in order to vent his anger.
"All the disciples of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect are to obey my orders and arrest all the people from the Exploding Heavens Faction and rescue the Drug God," the Master of the Chang Family roared in a voice that carried all across the area.
Ji Qinghan's expression changed immediately, and she said in a low voice, "Elder Chang, what do you mean? Our Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect is meant to be neutral. Now that you've ordered us to attack the Exploding Heavens Faction, isn't that making an enemy of the Exploding Heavens Faction?"
"Shut up," the Master of the Chang Family spoke angrily and stared fiercely at Ji Qinghan. He bellowed, "If we aren't hostile to the Exploding Heavens Faction, wouldn't it be making enemies with the Divine Farmer Clan?"
"This isn't what I mean. I still have to remind you of our neutrality. After all, this major event affects the entire Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect, " Ji Qinghan answered coldly, gave a slight bow, and then turned to leave the Chang Family's backyard, rushing back to the Ji Family's backyard.
Along the way, she walked faster and faster, and her heart was so anxious it was skipping beats.
This event had surprised her, as she'd never expected that Xu Que would dare to attack the Drug God. But she had many doubts about this matter that left her puzzled.
"The Drug God clearly had the existence of a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven. How could Xu Que capture him so easily?"
"Could it be that the Exploding Heavens Faction also had a powerful person of the Celestial Prime level?"
"However, if it was like this, it was also difficult to understand. If the Exploding Heavens Faction really had such a powerful person, why would he do something so embarrassing? Wouldn't it be better to directly fight with the Divine Farmer Clan?"
With a heart full of confusion, Ji Qinghan hurried back to the backyard of the Ji Family's house.
When she saw Ji Wuyun, the Ji Family had already heard about the capture of the Drug God, and Xu Que and the others had all left the Ji Family's backyard.
No one knew about Xu Que's stay in the Ji Family's backyard except for Ji Qinghan and Ji Wuyun, as well as a few of his confidants.
So, at this moment, most of the Ji Family felt very indifferent, and some were even gloating at the Chang Family's misfortune. After all, it was the Chang Family that was implicated this time.
"Ha, ha, ha, every cloud has a silver lining! If the Chang Family hadn't taken the Drug God away from us, I'm afraid this misfortune could have fallen on our Ji Family," an elder of the Ji family laughed as he spoke.
The others nodded and smiled, ecstatic on the inside.
Only Ji Wuyun was full of embarrassment and stood silently at one side. Seeing Ji Qinghan, he hurried toward her. However, before he had the opportunity to speak, Ji Qinghan stopped him with a look.
At the same time, Ji Qinghan faced the Master of the Ji Family and the others and said, "Elders, you should all have heard about the Drug God and the Exploding Heavens Faction. I've just come from the Chang Family, and the Master of the Chang Family is ready to order the rescue of the Drug God. We can't let him do this."
"Rest assured. I, jointly with the other families, have just reported to the Master of the Chang Family requesting that the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect continue to be neutral. If the Exploding Heavens Faction can quietly capture the Drug God from our Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect, there must be a strong power at hand."
The Master of the Ji Family laughed, and he looked as if he were still a teenager. "What I mean is that we shouldn't go wading in muddy water. As long as we don't get involved in this matter, we will at most just lose face. As for accounting to the Divine Farmer Clan, the Chang Family can explain for themselves."
"This is good news, but something seems strange," Ji Qinghan said as she frowned.
"What's wrong?" the Ji Family looked at Ji Qinghan.
Ji Qinghan hesitated a little and shook her head, "It's not easy to say now. I want to go to the city gate with Wuyun to see the specific situation."
"That's a good idea. Wuyun once knew Xu Que's father, who is a part of the Exploding Heavens Faction. It's good that the two of you go over to take a look, but remember not to get into a conflict with them," the Master of the Ji Family said solemnly. "The origins of the Exploding Heavens Faction are unknown. As we have no major grievances with them, there is no need to provoke them."
"Grandpa, rest assured," Ji Qinghan answered.
The Master of the Ji Family suddenly smiled, "With Jinghan handling this matter, I'm very assured. Leave now!"
Very quickly, Ji Qinghan and Ji Wuyun left the backyard of the Ji Family and rushed to the city gates.
Along the way, Ji Qinghan frowned slightly but didn't speak. She kept walking ahead.
Ji Wuyun's heart was bitter. After checking that no one was around, he quickly caught up to her. "Sister, don't be angry. It's all my fault, but I didn't expect Brother Xu to do this…" Ji Wuyun grimaced.
He'd thought that Xu Que's father was an illogical person who didn't play cards according to common sense, but he didn't expect that Xu Que was even more outrageous and even dared to kidnap the Drug God. What a sh*t! Sure enough, the son was just like his father, and the actions of the son far surpassed the father's.
But now, he could only helplessly hope that his sister wouldn't be so angry. After all, Xu Que capturing the Drug God was beneficial and not harmful to their Ji Family.
"Wuyun, do you realize that if the Drug God hadn't been invited to the backyard of the Chang Family, but had been captured in our backyard, what the outcome would have been like?" At this point, Ji Qinghan stopped and asked sharply.
"Of course I know," Ji Wuyun smiled bitterly and nodded. "But…sister, if the Drug God had really been in our backyard, I believe that Brother Xu wouldn't have captured him and implicated us."
"You believe that?" Ji Qinghan frowned, evidently not satisfied with Wuyun's answer. She shook her head and sighed, "Maybe…maybe this is the reason why we all think that you aren't suitable for the position of the Divine Son. Wuyun, there are some things you can't just look at on the surface. Even more, you can't trust outsiders!"
"Sister, I understand what you're saying, but…" Ji Wuyun frowned, hesitated for a moment, suddenly raised his head, and firmly said, "I'll always believe in Brother Xu. Although I haven't known him for a long time, I think he is a bright person. Despite his unexpected behavior, he won't harm us without reason."
"….." Ji Qinghan looked at Ji Wuyun blankly and nodded silently, turning to continue walking. She didn't care what kind of person Xu Que was. What she had to figure out now was exactly how Xu Que had captured the Drug God. A trivial person like Xu Que shouldn't have been able to quietly capture the Drug God. There must have been a strong force behind him. And she also really wanted to know what Xu Que wanted to do.
This guy had taken the risk of offending the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect by capturing the Drug God, tying him to the city wall, and throwing poop at him. "Did he really do so much just to humiliate the Drug God and the Divine Farmer Clan?"
This was so incomprehensible!
Chapter 1434: He'd Come at Last!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
At this moment, there was huge excitement at the gates of Tian Sha City.
Numerous cultivators surrounded the area. When they'd heard this shocking news, they'd rushed over as soon as possible.
The Drug God of the Divine Farmer Clan, a powerful True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, was being humiliated here. What a shocking event!
Before the ancestors of the various forces had appeared, the True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven had been among the highest existences across the entire Heaven Continent, only one level weaker than the Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven.
Of course, now everyone knew that there were ancestors who were on the Celestial King level, but they seldom appeared in the public eye. So the Celestial Stage of the Great All-Embracing Heaven was still very prestigious in the Heaven Content.
Now, however, such a prestigious True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, and one of the major faces of the Divine Farmer Clan, was being treated like dirt. Tied to the gates of the city, having poop thrown at him.
"The Exploding Heavens Faction are too daring, coming to Tian Sha City to make trouble and treating the Drug God like this. Aren't they scared of the Divine Farmer Clan taking revenge?" Someone asked with a frown.
"Ha, ha, ha, they have the ability to abduct the Drug God. Why would they be afraid of the Divine Farmer Clan?" A bystander laughed.
"But the Divine Farmer Clan also has ancestors that are on the Celestial King level, and some people even speculate that they may have ancestors on the Celestial Prime level."
"But how can you be sure that the Exploding Heavens Faction doesn't also?" A female cultivator smiled and said.
A male cultivator next to her immediately nodded, "She's right. Although the Exploding Heavens Faction may have disappeared for a while, they have certainly returned with confidence!"
"I agree. Now, causing so much trouble, maybe they're using him as an example to announce to the whole Heaven Continent that they're back!"
"That makes sense, but why haven't we seen Xu Que's father?" Someone else nodded and looked with puzzlement at the gates of the city. He hadn't seen the old man.
"Yes, it seems as if Xu Que's father didn't come, but Buttface and Duan Jiude seem to treat the young man with them as their leader."
"That's true. The concept of getting rewards for throwing poop also seemed to have been mentioned by that young man!"
"He has a kind of roguish feel. He seems sinister and makes one's scalp tingle."
"How could this be? I feel that roguish is very charming."
"Charming?" Many male cultivators froze and looked at the female cultivator with wonder.
The female cultivator covered her mouth and chuckled. "It's really charming, and I don't feel my scalp tingling. Instead, I feel excited all over." The woman's eyes glittered enchantingly and she smiled, turning her gaze again to Xu Que.
HISS!
Many male cultivators around her all inhaled sharply. "What a seductive temptress. Who was this woman?"
She had such an outstanding appearance and such a charming temperament, how had they not heard of her before?
"Miss, which clan are you from?" Someone asked politely.
"Me?" The woman shook her head and smiled. "You're not qualified to know what my clan is…"
The woman paused for a moment, turned her head, looked behind her, and smiled again. "Okay, trouble has come to find me again. I won't play with you children for now!"
After which, under everyone's astonished gazes, she turned, walked out of the crowd, and left in an instant.
The surrounding male cultivators were all stunned, and their faces started to darken.
"That's outrageous. She just called us children."
HMPH! "This woman is too proud!"
"Across the Heaven Continent, how is our clan not qualified enough? What a joke, even the people from the Sage Sect don't dare to speak like this."
"She is probably from some unknown clan, why bother!"
"That's right, so what if she is beautiful? The Heaven Continent has no lack of beautiful women, let alone women with outstanding appearances, and they also all have high levels of cultivation… Oh right, what was the cultivation level of that woman?"
"I didn't detect what level she was."
"That's strange. I didn't either. I only had an impression of her looks and voice."
"What an odd woman."
While discussing this woman, everyone found that something was strange in hindsight.
HUH!
At that moment, a figure in white clothes plunged into the crowd from a distance and fell straight into the place where the enchanting woman had just been.
The figure in white was also a woman, but, with a veil on her face and cold eyes, she looked like a sword edge, and carried a swift and fierce aura of death.
She glanced around, knitting her eyebrows. Looking at the male cultivators around her, she asked coldly, "Where did the woman who was here just now go to?"
"Oh, she seemed to have gone there." A cultivator pointed out the direction immediately. It was a place outside the city that was full of terrifying Spiritual Qi.
The next moment, a few cultivators recovered from the shock, and their expressions changed suddenly.
"Someone had dared to go into that place full of terrifying Spiritual Qi?"
Sh*t, they hadn't realized just now, but now thinking about it, something was very strange. "Where did that woman just now come from? She wasn't even scared of the terrifying Spiritual Qi outside the city?"
The woman in white seemed indifferent. As her gaze swept in that direction, a flicker of annoyance passed through her eyes. "Abominable, I am one step too late again."
As she finished speaking, she prepared to continue her chase. But, at this moment, the movement at the gates attracted her attention.
YO! YO! YO! "Congratulations to my fellow cultivator! After throwing the 100th piece of poop, he finally successfully hit the nostril. He has won a ninth-grade weapon. Everyone, clap for him!"
Under the city gates, Xu Que yelled loudly, encouraging everyone to applaud.
Mo Junchen stood on the stoop in embarrassment, under the admiring gaze of the crowd, and felt shameful. He had just thrown that piece of poop!
It was true that the number of people who dared to throw poop at the Drug God was almost zero, so under Xu Que's strong persuasion, he had reluctantly listened to him and thrown it once and ended up hitting the nose of the Drug God.
However, this was nothing to be proud of, and the applause was unbearable.
But the person who found it truly unbearable was undoubtedly the Drug God who was tied up at this moment.
His face was full of anger, and he was almost going crazy. He couldn't even swear he was so angry.
Buttface had stuffed many strange things into his mouth, completely preventing him from speaking. Xu Que had also imprisoned his cultivation, and he could only watch helplessly as Xu Que and the others did whatever they wanted to him.
What was even more infuriating was that Duan Jiude was still standing below with his arms akimbo, smiling at him and mocking him. "If you have any dissatisfactions, just say so. We, the Exploding Heavens Faction, are willing to listen to your suggestions."
The Drug God raged silently, but he couldn't shout. He could only stare and glare at Duan Jiude, as if he wanted to swallow him.
However, this didn't change his present situation. Duan Jiude just simply pretended that he couldn't see him glaring.
This scene was also witnessed by the white-clad woman.
She frowned, and her cold eyes locked onto Xu Que. She said to herself, "He's another scourge."
However, she was unwilling to deal with such trivial matters and only looked at Xu Que from afar, before quietly leaving.
By the time everyone around her realized she was gone, she had disappeared without a trace.
At the same time, Xu Que, who stood under the city wall, had not discovered anything astray and still had his arms folded across his chest, staring tauntingly at the Drug God.
"Lad, why haven't the people of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect come yet? Would you like to play a little more?" Buttface stepped forward and asked.
"How else can we play?" Xu Que asked.
"We can put a snake into his pants," Buttface said, and prepared to dig out a snake.
"Presumptuous." At that moment, a voice suddenly rang out sharply.
The Master of the Chang Family had personally brought a large number of people and horses and hurried here, full of anger and anxiety.
Xu Que, Buttface, and Duan Jiude turned their heads and looked at each other with smiles on their faces.
He'd come at last!
Chapter 1435: Hit Me If You Have the Guts!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"Preposterous, stop what you're doing at once!"
The Master of the Chang Family rushed over, looking extremely aggressive. He cast an angry look at Xu Que and the others and growled in admonishment, "What's the meaning of this, Exploding Heavens Faction? Why are you treating my Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect's noble guest in such a manner?!"
In fact, he had curbed his anger by a great deal. After all, before leaving, his Sect Leader had reminded him that he couldn't offend the Exploding Heavens Faction.
Therefore, the Master of the Chang Family had to exercise restraint with his words at this moment. But the fury and hate in his eyes couldn't be concealed.
"What? What'd you say? Is this person actually a noble guest of your Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect?" Buttface acted shocked.
"Oh, my God!" Duan Jiude also shouted in amazement, "Doesn't your Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect have any standards? A mere True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven is treated as a noble guest?"
"You all…" The Master of the Chang Family gritted his teeth and looked furious. But he still forced himself to suppress his anger and didn't dare flare up.
He knew that if he really offended the Exploding Heavens Faction, the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect would certainly expel the Chang Family.
After all, it was very likely due to the existence of a Celestial Prime in the Exploding Heavens Faction that the Drug God had been kidnapped so easily.
Would the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect offend a Celestial Prime strongman for the sake of the lowly Chang Family? Obviously not!
"Xu lad!"
At this time, a crisp voice rang out.
Ji Qinghan and Ji Wuyun had appeared not far away. They were walking over from the direction of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect, looking calm.
Ji Wuyun had his head bowed and was too embarrassed to look at Xu Que. Apparently, on the way over, he had been warned by Ji Qinghan.
"Yo, Miss Ji, what can I do for you?" Xu Que asked with a grin.
Now that the plan had been set in motion, he wasn't about to give any respect to those who wanted to stop it.
"Xu lad, this place belongs to my Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect. It doesn't seem as if you are acting very nicely," Ji Qinghan said tactfully.
Even though the Ji Family could extricate themselves from this matter, they were ultimately members of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect. If they stood by and watched while Xu Que treated the Drug God in such a manner and didn't come out publicly and speak against this behavior, it would inevitably cause the Divine Farmer Clan to misunderstand the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect's stance.
Consequently, they needed to show some effort for the sake of appearances.
"What's not so nice about it? This is a private feud between our Exploding Heavens Faction and the Divine Farmer Clan, which has nothing to do with you all. Moreover, even the Drug God himself had no objections to choose to deal with this matter in the Heavenly Cursed City. Ask him if you don't believe me." As Xu Que said this, he reached his hand out to the Drug God on the city wall.
The Drug God stared straight ahead but couldn't say a word.
He wanted to say that indeed he had an objection!
"Xu, it would be better to take the Drug God down from the wall first. Then we can all sit down and have a talk about anything," Ji Qinghan spoke again.
This time she simply tried to do the Drug God a favor. Perhaps after this matter had passed, the Drug God could help Ji Wufeng.
"Take him down? That's a good one," Xu Que said with a hint of smile on his face when he heard her words, "but…which part of him will come down first?"
"Huh?" Ji Qinghan suddenly stared blankly as she heard his shocking words.
"Which part of him will come down first?"
"What do you mean?"
Everyone present was also in a state of shock. Xu Que's comment was followed immediately by many widened eyes and looks of horror.
"F**k! Which part of him will come down first? Is this guy trying to dismember the Drug God?"
"It can't be. Is it possible that he will really kill and behead the Drug God?"
"I'm afraid this is getting out of hand. If it was only to humiliate the Drug God, perhaps the Divine Farmer Clan will only retaliate to make up for the loss of face. But if he really kills the Drug God, then it would be the same as cutting off the left arm of the Divine Farmer Clan, and it will instantly become a blood feud!"
Many people started talking about it and were flabbergasted.
They had initially thought that Xu Que was just toying with the Drug God to humiliate him. He would eventually have to let him go.
After all, he was a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven. The number of True Celestials of the Great All-Embracing Heaven in the Divine Farmer Clan could be counted on one hand.
The key was that the Drug God was not only at a major cultivation stage, he was also unrivaled in the production of Immortal Elixirs and the art of healing. If he really died, the Divine Farmer Clan and the Exploding Heavens Faction would be sure to fight to the bitter end.
"Shall I let go of a leg first?" Xu Que asked with a smile and really pulled out a knife from under his crotch.
Everyone's eyes got wide with shock. It was actually a butcher's knife.
"How dare you! Stop this at once," the Master of the Chang Family bellowed on the spot.
"Xu, please wait a moment," Ji Qinghan also quickly spoke out to stop him. She'd made this trip specifically because she really didn't want the Drug God to die here.
If Xu Que were to really cut off the Drug God's leg while the Drug God's body was in full Cultivation Seal, perhaps he would die from loss of blood on the spot.
"Oh? Could it be that Miss Ji wants me to cut off other parts first? Not a problem at all. You tell me which part you want me to cut off and I'll immediately take care of it," Xu Que said with a laugh.
Ji Qinghan suddenly frowned. Originally, she'd had a bad impression of Xu Que. Now, when she heard Xu Que's frivolous words and smiles at this moment, she was deeply unhappy.
"Xu Que, do not make jokes like that with me again," she said in a low voice.
The Master of the Chang Family was also getting impatient and shouted in a stern voice, "What we mean is that we want you to take the Drug God's entire body down."
"Take his entire body down? Oh, I see, why didn't you say so earlier? I misunderstood," Xu Que gave a look of a sudden realization while he waved his hands at the same time to signal to Buttface and Duan Jiude to take care of the matter.
The people of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect were suddenly relieved when they saw what was happening.
Xu Que's tone and actions were obviously his way out of an embarrassing situation as he got ready to let the Drug God go.
However, the next moment, Xu Que suddenly waved his hand and the butcher's knife in his hand was instantly enveloped by Celestial Core Power and transformed into glowing light, which soared toward the Drug God on the city wall.
WHIZ!
With a crisp sound, the butcher's knife directly cut through the throat of the Drug God and brutally nailed him to the city wall!
This scene, which occurred out of the blue, caused everyone's faces to change dramatically on the spot.
"No," the Master of the Chang Family bellowed in a stern voice.
Ji Qinghan opened her mouth wide and had a look of incredulity on her face.
Ji Wuyun was also struck dumb and stared blankly below the city wall, where the Drug God's head had tumbled down. He was at a complete loss.
No one had expected that Xu Que, who had been all smiles a second ago as he seemed ready to get out of the embarrassing situation and release the Drug God, would directly make a move instead to kill the Drug God.
No one could've anticipated this trick.
"Oh no, my hand slipped. I wanted to cut the fetters off his body with the knife just now. But I didn't expect my throw to deviate so much. Ah, it's really unfortunate," Xu Que yelled in a loud voice and wore a look of false regret on his face.
"Motherf*cker, you… What did you do? How dare you go back on your word!" At the same time, the Master of the Chang Family glared angrily at Xu Que and shouted.
The death of the Drug God meant that his Chang Family was going to have to shoulder half of the responsibility.
After all, the man had been taken away from his Chang Family's backyard. If the powerful Celestial Prime of the Exploding Heavens Faction didn't appear, then it would be easy to make people think that they, the Chang Family, had colluded with the Exploding Heavens Faction and sold out the Drug God.
"What the h*ll?! I didn't promise to let him go. What's more, even if I went back on my word, what are you going to do about it? Hit me if you have the guts!" Xu Que said with a smile as he continued to be completely aggravating.
Chapter 1436: Start an All-Out War!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Outside the gates of Tian Sha City, a wide expanse was filling up with cultivators.
The atmosphere was terrible. It was a scene of deathly silence. It was scary it was so quiet.
Many people seemed to find it hard to accept the fact that the Drug God had died in this fashion. It was absolutely appalling to them that the magnificent True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven had been killed in such a manner.
In fact, most of the credit could be attributed to Zixia Fairy. The reason that Xu Que, Buttface, and Duan Jiude were able to capture the Drug God alive was because they relied on the Divine Aperture's Shell to conceal all their presences in order to be able to get close to the Drug God.
This was coupled with the fact that the Drug God himself had lowered his guard. He didn't expect anything to go wrong in the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect. As a result, Xu Que had had the opportunity to attack him with his Tough-Acting King's Purple-Gold Rod. Using a sneak attack from behind, it triggered the black club's passive ability and knocked him out with one strike.
However, since the Drug God was an existence at the level of a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, even if he were to lose consciousness, the attack wouldn't be able to hurt or kill him.
By relying only on the stages of Human Celestial and Earth Celestial that Xu Que and Duan Jiude were respectively, they wouldn't be able to kill him. Even if the True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven were to be seriously injured, his recovery ability was still amazing.
Therefore, Xu Que looked to Zixia Fairy to step forward and help. With her power as a Celestial King, she crushed the True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven and completely obliterated the cultivation of the Drug God.
In the eyes of outsiders, the Drug God's cultivation had been imprisoned. In fact, he had been crippled, which was no different from killing him.
However, for the sake of his Acting Tough Points, Xu Que had staged the scene in front of the public and killed the Drug God in front of countless people without hesitation. He'd made a big killing on points with this.
"This d*mn b*stard," the Master of the Chang Family stood trembling with anger. He was in big trouble following the death of the Drug God.
"Master, we've already informed the Divine Farmer Clan, the Sage Sect, and the Heaven Palace Academy. A report just arrived that the Celestial Kings of the three great forces and other forces are already on their way, and it is estimated that they'll be here soon," a member of the Chang Family passed on the message to the Master.
"Are they really coming here so fast?" the Master of the Chang Family was stunned.
"Yes, it is said that Xu Que and his group first exposed their whereabouts in Severe Gale City and were then brought over here by that kid, Ji Wuyun. Someone in Severe Gale City sent out the news."
"Absolutely disgraceful, so it was that kid, Ji Wuyun, who brought them here!" The Master of the Chang Family immediately flew into a rage and looked toward Ji Wuyun in the crowd.
At the same time, Ji Wuyun was looking at Xu Que with a look of horror and disbelief. "Brother Xu, you…you're…in big trouble this time." His lips quivered as he spoke to Xu Que through soundless communication.
After all, the Drug God had died so suddenly, catching everyone off guard.
Xu Que gave a cool smile and said, "You fool, everything is all right."
"All right? You've killed the Drug God. The Divine Farmer Clan will never be willing to take this lying down. Moreover, the Chang Family has certainly informed the Divine Farmer Clan. At that time, the entire Ziwei Celestial Realm will also receive the news. How are you going to escape under siege from so many Celestial Kings?" Ji Wuyun seemed a little agitated.
He didn't want to see Xu Que and the others die in this way. He wouldn't be able to answer to Xu Que's father when he returned in the future.
"Oh, my Exploding Heavens Faction is tough and unyielding. Why would we be afraid of a few insignificant Celestial Kings?" Xu Que said with a cold sneer. He was completely imperious.
Ji Wuyun was taken aback and communicated soundlessly again, "Brother Xu, can it be that…you all really have a powerful Celestial Prime helping you? Did he capture the Drug God?"
Xu Que smiled and didn't respond.
"A powerful Celestial Prime?"
It might've been true before, but now he certainly didn't have one because his relationship with Xuanyuan Wanrong had been completely broken.
"F*ck, boy, this is a little mean of you. Didn't you agree to let Your Holiness do it?" Buttface clamored and brandished his paws.
When they'd made the plans before, Buttface had made a strong demand, wanting to make a splash and trample the Drug God to death. But now Xu Que had snatched away the Drug God's head, which caused Buttface to be very unhappy.
"Pay no mind to these small details. The plan can't always keep up with the changes. What's more, there are still many people waiting for you to make your moves on," Xu Que said with a smile.
"Bullsh*t, those are Celestial Kings. How can Your Holiness make a move?" Buttface said with annoyance.
"F*ck, you'd better not blurt that out. What's going to happen if the others hear you?"
"No worries, Your Holiness speaks in a quiet voice. They can't have heard me."
"We all heard you!"
This sentence popped into the heads of everyone present, while all the people stared in disbelief.
HISS!
"This is big news,"
"Are they…are they really going to move to strike the Celestial Kings?"
"It's true. It's definitely real this time. The Exploding Heavens Faction absolutely has a big shot at the Celestial Prime cultivation stage backing them. Otherwise they wouldn't dare act this way."
"F*ck, it looks like there's going to be more big trouble today!"
Many people were alarmed, and even a little excited.
In the Heaven Continent, a powerful clan like the Divine Farmer Clan could fight openly and maneuver covertly, but basically it engaged in back-and-forth fighting on a small scale, which led to battles that went on for a long time.
But now that the Exploding Heavens Faction had killed and beheaded the Drug God, it suddenly pushed the hatred between these two forces to the limit, turning it into a situation where an all-out war was about to start. It was essentially something that had rarely been seen for thousands of years.
"Oh no, this is bad," Ji Qinghan's face changed as she seemed to have already guessed what Xu Que had in mind to do.
Ji Wuyun was shocked and turned his head to look at Ji Qinghan.
Ji Qinghan said in a low voice, "The Exploding Heavens Faction killed and beheaded the Drug God because they wanted to lure the powerful Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan as well as the Celestial Kings of the other forces here. They…they want to go to war."
"What? This…" As Ji Wuyun listened, his face changed dramatically. He hurriedly looked at Xu Que and communicated soundlessly, "Brother Xu, do you want to start a war in Tian Sha City? This…this absolutely can't happen. Our Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect…"
"Calm yourself, we're not going to start a battle in your Tian Sha City," Xu Que interrupted him.
"If it's not in Tian Sha City, then…where is it?" Ji Wuyun was stumped.
"Outside the city," Xu Que got right to the point.
"Outside the city? That's all filled with terrifying Spiritual Qi. How are you going to fight there?" Ji Wuyun was even more staggered.
But Xu Que no longer responded. Instead, he swept his gaze behind him where the center of Tian Sha City was located.
In that area, there was clearly a strong indication of Celestial Core Power, and the massive teleportation device was starting to glow brilliantly. It was obvious that someone was about to arrive in Tian Sha City by passing through the teleportation device.
"No, it can't be, they've arrived here so quickly?" Buttface also sensed the movement and turned his eyes toward the device.
"It's probably not those Celestial Kings," Duan Jiude shook his head.
"They really couldn't be here so soon," Xu Que said.
However, Zixia Fairy, who'd stayed quiet all this time, raised her eyebrows and said with a solemn-looking face, "They have come."
She had already sensed the presence of the Celestial Kings.
"F*ck, then I'll have to hurry up and prepare," Buttface immediately jumped up. He energetically took out a comb and combed the fur on his head.
Duan Jiude produced the ancient turtle shell and whipped out his Celestial Core Power. He began to divine their fortunes in the war.
"There's no need to divine the fortunes. This war…is going to be very difficult," Zixia Fairy said in a low voice, "…at least ten Celestial Kings have arrived to fight for the other side."
She was not relaxed at the moment. Ten powerful Celestial Kings was indeed very difficult to deal with. It could even…be dangerous.
CLICK-CLACK!
However, Duan Jiude's divination worked very quickly. Zixia Fairy's voice had just finished speaking when the divination came to light.
"Ha, ha, ha, an exceptionally auspicious divination. This is an extremely lucky omen. We're going to come out of this unscathed this time." He laughed with surprise.
"As I have long anticipated," Xu Que's eyes slightly narrowed as he answered Duan Jiude and smiled as he put his hands behind his back. He had a well-devised plan in hand and a card up his sleeve.
Zixia Fairy stared at Xu Que with a blank expression. Mo Junchen as well as Liu Jingning and the others were also startled.
At least ten Supreme Existence of Celestial King levels had arrived.
"How could there be an extremely lucky omen?"
"And what had he long anticipated?"
"Could it be possible that this Wicked Trio of Que, De, and Dog were up to some of their tricks again?
Chapter 1437: Celestial Kings
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
"I, Chang Duangeng, pay my respects to every Senior here!"
The Master of the Chang Family trembled all over and immediately led many of the Chang Family members to step forward and welcome the Celestial Kings. They bowed and bent their knees.
The status of this Master of the Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect who was a True Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven was exceedingly outstanding.
However, before these Celestial Kings, his status and strength were worthless. Furthermore, he was very willing to humble himself to a very low level.
Wherever one was, strength was everything.
Many of the Cultivators present didn't feel the slightest contempt or surprise at the behavior and attitude change displayed by the Master of the Chang Family. They even felt somewhat envious.
After all, not everyone was entitled to speak in front of the Celestial Kings.
For example, other than the Master of the Chang Family who dared to announce his own name, the rest of the members of the Chang Family could only bow their heads and kneel on the ground as they shouted to pay their respects to the Seniors. But they didn't dare mention their own names. Because they weren't entitled to do so.
"Chang Duangeng?" At this time, the head of the Celestial Kings frowned, and his sharp gaze swept toward the Master of the Chang Family.
The Master of the Chang Family shivered instantly, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He rushed to knock his head to the ground.
"Please forgive me, Senior! I, Junior, was momentarily careless and the Drug God was captured by an evil man. I'm guilty of a terrible crime and implore all the Seniors to give me, your Junior, a chance to redress it." He was extremely terrified and yelled in a trembling voice.
Because the person who'd opened his mouth and spoke to him was the Ancestral Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan.
This particular Celestial King appeared to be very old. His figure was thin, but his vigor was boundless. A head of white hair flickered brilliantly like 1,000 shoots of silver needles. Any one of the strands could kill everything.
Behind this Celestial King, there were nine others who were just as powerful as he was.
There were five men and four women. Among them were a man and a woman who appeared to be extremely young. They looked like they were only in their 20s.
Another man and woman appeared middle-aged, while the remaining three men and two women were old people, similar to the ancestor from the Divine Farmer Clan.
However, in terms of vigor and strength, these ten people were probably equal to Zixia Fairy.
In such a situation, if these ten people were to join forces, Zixia Fairy certainly wouldn't have the power to retaliate.
This was the situation that Mo Junchen and the others could judge at a glance. They looked grim at this moment and felt extremely heavy in their hearts.
"To redress it? What gives you the right to talk to your King about redress?" the Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan asked coldly.
BANG!
The Master of the Chang Family immediately knocked his head hard on the ground and said in a loud voice, "I, your Junior, am willing to be punished in any way the Seniors see fit."
"Punish you?"
The Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan laughed coldly. His eyes were full of sarcasm and contempt as he imperceptibly shook his head and said, "You are far from being qualified. Your King will wait to see how the two old things in your Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect will account for this to your King. As for now, those people who acted recklessly are the ones that your King wants to personally dispose of."
Speaking of which, the Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan immediately cast his eyes toward Xu Que.
But, the next moment, that Celestial King, as well as the nine other Celestial Kings by his side, all slightly frowned.
"A Celestial King of our generation?" One of them spoke and stared straight at Zixia Fairy.
Zixia Fairy had remained expressionless and stood in place with a look of indifference. She actually had an imposing manner of dominance and returned the gazes of the ten Celestial Kings.
"D*mn, my Xuan'er is fierce. It proves that nurture determines a person's character. She has learned my imposing manner so quickly," Xu Que exclaimed in surprise.
He could basically ascertain Zixia Fairy's strength. Her chances of winning in a one-to-one fight were high, but if she had to go against ten Celestial Kings joining forces at the same time, the odds of a victory were almost zero.
But even so, she didn't back down. She came across as powerful.
Such power was true confidence and aloofness that were bred in her bones. She simply didn't attach any importance to these Celestial Kings. It was completely false bravado.
"You know nothing. If my grand master merges with her Taoist Body, it will restore her power to its peak. Not to mention these ten Celestial Kings, even if it happened to be Xuanyuan Wanrong, she would also be afraid of the consequences to a certain degree," Duan Jiude immediately showed off with a smug face, as if he were tooting his own horn.
Xu Que was taken aback. "What did he mean by those words?"
"Zixia Fairy with her Celestial King cultivation stage is not even her real strength?"
"She also owns a Taoist Body? And she can merge them?"
"How…could it be?"
Xu Que's mouth was agape as he looked, flabbergasted, at Zixia Fairy.
However, before he could ask anything further, the figures of those ten Celestial Kings had already flashed and appeared in front of Xu Que and the others at a distance of only a few yards away.
Even Xu Que couldn't react in time to such amazing speed.
His face suddenly changed, and he almost threw out his trump card directly.
Fortunately, these ten Celestial Kings didn't make a move, so Xu Que restrained his impulse. But he still had lingering fears.
He had underestimated the strength of the Celestial King cultivation stage. If Zixia Fairy had not been here, perhaps he would've already been obliterated in the face-to-face encounter just now.
The person had already been killed. It would've been useless even if he had set up more plots and traps in advance.
"This fellow cultivator doesn't seem to be of our generation. Care to share which Celestial Emperor period you come from?" The young-looking Celestial King looked at Zixia Fairy and inquired gently.
"The Final Generation of the Infant Period," Zixia Fairy replied in an indifferent way, using a phrase that Xu Que had never heard of before.
The ten Celestial Kings' faces changed.
"The Final Generation of the Infant Period was 3,000 years before us!"
"That's interesting. It looks as if the people who came from this time were from more than two periods of eras."
"Fellow cultivator, since we're all people of the Celestial Emperor age, how can you condone the younger generation's acting like this? You've already violated the treaty we originally laid down. According to reason, we have a good enough basis to join forces to execute you," the young male Celestial King said with a smile.
That might've been the case, but the ten people still seemed to have no intention of making a move as if they were waiting for something.
This was very strange. It seemed as if they were secure in the knowledge that they had backing and yet they were slightly afraid of the consequences.
"A treaty? What kind of treaty do you have? Spit it out and let Your Holiness have a listen," Buttface asked curiously.
However, no Celestial King was even willing to acknowledge him. Even Zixia Fairy remained silent. It wasn't clear if she was aware of what the so-called treaty said.
"Fellow cultivator, you haven't said a word. Is it because you don't wish to explain or because you have no right to respond?" At this time, the young female Celestial King spoke with a laugh.
Her facial features were delicate and pretty, and she had extraordinary manners like a fairy who has placed herself above the common populace, a pure and innocent lotus flower!
"Why are you beating around the bush? I don't have the patience to waste my breath any longer," suddenly, the Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan opened his mouth.
He showed a look of impatience and his eyes scanned the territory all around as he growled deeply, "Grand master of the Exploding Heavens Faction, you know what's going on with this matter, so please step forward and give us a reasonable breakdown. Otherwise, you'll be the first person to destroy the treaty of the Celestial Emperors."
Chapter 1438: Have You All Said Enough?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
It was silent everywhere. Everyone present was in a state of shock and disbelief.
There was actually a Celestial King among the group of people from the Exploding Heavens Faction.
Everyone looked at Zixia Fairy, aghast. They hadn't recognized her power. Her origins were 3,000 years earlier than these other powerful Ancestral Celestial Kings.
But even more frightening were the words of the Divine Farmer Clan's Celestial King after, which startled everyone.
There was indeed a powerful being at the Celestial Prime level backing the Exploding Heavens Faction.
They had both a Celestial King and a Celestial Prime. No wonder the Exploding Heavens Faction dared to act as they wanted and were full of confidence.
Chang Duangeng, the Master of the Chang Family, had a fit of lingering fear in his heart at this moment. When he'd questioned Xu Que earlier, he also hadn't detected that the woman, wearing a light muslin veil over her face with an extraordinary air standing next to Xu Que, was actually a Celestial King.
As to whether there was a Celestial Prime hidden behind the Exploding Heavens Faction, their Dark Shadow Pagoda Sect had already speculated about this point, but they couldn't be sure.
But now the Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan had spoken, which was the same as turning this speculation into a confirmation.
Ji Qinghan and Ji Wuyun also looked stunned.
No wonder the Drug God could have been silently brought out of the Chang Family's backyard. If it was really the great power of the Celestial Prime at work, then everything that had happened was only to be expected.
However, what made all the people more interested was the treaty that the Celestial King had mentioned two times now: The Treaty of the Celestial Emperor.
Was it possible that there was some kind of agreement between these power players?
"The Treaty of the Celestial Emperor, can it be that the Celestial Emperor set conditions to restrict the other Celestial Primes and Celestial Kings?"
"It's very likely that this is the case. It might even stipulate that they cannot strike a move against their own respective younger generations. As a result, after the Exploding Heavens Faction killed the Drug God, it attracted so many Celestial Kings to come."
"But is there a need for such a treaty to exist?"
"Yeah, if the Celestial Kings and Celestial Primes can't kill the younger generation in the lower cultivation stages, then how else…are they supposed to establish their prestige?"
"You'd better not speculate anymore. From the way I see the Treaty of the Celestial Emperor, I'm afraid it's not that simple."
A lot of people were discussing this in low voices, but they were unable to state the truth of the matter.
On the other hand, Xu Que and the others were also startled.
When the Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan stood there and shouted for the Celestial Prime of the Exploding Heavens Faction to come out, Xu Que and a few others almost thought it was Xuanyuan Wanrong who had come.
However, Xu Que didn't feel the presence of Xuanyuan Wanrong at all, and Zixia Fairy also didn't perceive it the slightest bit, which was really somewhat inexplicable.
"F*ck, when did we have a powerful being at a Celestial Prime level?" Buttface looked at Xu Que.
Xu Que shrugged his shoulders and said with a puzzled expression, "Never, only the devil knows what this stupid c*nt of a Celestial King is talking about!"
"I'm afraid he's been kicked in the head by a donkey," Duan Jiude said haughtily.
These two people and a dog didn't have the slightest intention to cover up their conversation. They just spoke out openly and aboveboard.
Everyone present instantly stared directly at Xu Que and gasped.
"Is this guy crazy?"
"Did he actually scold the Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan as a stupid c*nt?"
"F*ck, the important point is that they even deny that their own Exploding Heavens Faction has a powerful Celestial Prime."
"Is this a cover-up, which only makes matters worse, or is it giving the Celestial King a slap in the face?"
"Oh, you have a filthy mouth that cannot utter decent language. Is this how the elders in your family taught you?" At this time, the Divine Farmer Clan's Celestial King sneered, and both his hands were still clasped behind his back.
SWISH!
The next moment, there were a burst of ripples across the Void. An invisible palm appeared out of nowhere in front of Xu Que and ferociously tore toward his face with the speed of a lightning flash.
BANG!
However, the palm of the hand hadn't yet touched Xu Que when it was scattered by a brilliant light on the spot. It was Zixia Fairy who made the move and broke off the palm attack for Xu Que.
Soon after, Zixia Fairy raised her hand again and consolidated a burning bright light, which evolved into a cold long sword that went straight toward the Celestial King to cut him down. It was incomparably powerful!
"Xuan'er, stop!" Xu Que hurriedly opened his mouth and shouted to stop Zixia Fairy.
Now was not the time to start a fight. Zixia Fairy could defeat the Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan based on her strength. But once they started to fight, if the other nine Celestial Kings also struck, then Zixia Fairy would be at a disadvantage.
The important point was that the restrictive spell that he and Buttface as well as Duan Jiude had set was all outside Tian Sha City. If the battle were to start here, it would be difficult to ensure that their plan could be carried out smoothly.
"Well? Are you going to violate the Treaty of the Celestial Emperor?" The Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan frowned and threw Zixia Fairy a cold look as he asked.
The other nine Celestial Kings were also startled. It looked as if they didn't expect Zixia Fairy to be so powerful. After she'd blocked the strike, she actually wanted to retaliate.
"He is my man!" Zixia Fairy looked calm as she reached out to Xu Que and said this with incomparable dominance.
SWISH!
Everyone present instantly went absolutely silent. The ten Celestial Kings stood flabbergasted in place and found it hard to believe.
"Your…your man?" The youthful-looking, innocent, and pure female Celestial King looked at Zixia Fairy in absolute amazement.
All ten Celestial Kings laughed in the next moment.
Sarcasm and mockery were completely written across their faces and they made no attempt to mask it.
"Ah, it's ridiculous, so ridiculous!"
"A magnificent Celestial King is actually acting so shamelessly and dares to say such absurd things in public."
"This boy's bone age is not even 200 years old. For him to be able to step into the Celestial stage means his aptitude is first-class. But for you to actually make him your cultivation companion? Even if an old cow wants to eat young grass, it shouldn't be done this way."
Several of the Celestial Kings mocked and ridiculed her. They seemed to think it was an absurd joke to the extreme.
However, Zixia Fairy remained indifferent and incomparably calm. She lightly shook her head and said, "He is not my cultivation companion. He's my man."
Her cultivation companion and her man, there was no difference between these two expressions. Because they both meant the same thing.
But Zixia Fairy was very stubborn about this point and seemed to declare a kind of sovereignty. She was far more certain and firmer about her man than her cultivation companion.
"Oh, Older Sister, you can be so shameless. I, your younger sister, greatly admire you," the youthful-looking female Celestial King continued to laugh at her.
She looked innocent and clean, but her mockery and ridicule threw the word innocent out. Only one other word was left.
"Huh?"
At this time, everyone present was stunned.
The ten Celestial Kings were also surprised.
Everyone's eyes instantly gathered and focused on the man next to Zixia Fairy: Xu Que.
Xu Que had been looking gloomy a while ago. His ink-dark eyes contained a boundless murderous aura.
He stood in place. A terrifying Spiritual Qi was constantly emanating from and surrounding his entire body. The corners of the lower hem of his clothes fluttered without a breeze. He looked like a monster who had just revealed its true nature.
"What an intense terrifying Spiritual Qi!"
"What kind of Demonic skills has this man cultivated?"
"Humph! No wonder his bone age has not yet reached 200 years old and he can step onto the Human Celestial stage. It's really a Demonic cultivation."
"It's also fortunate that it has happened in the Heaven Continent. If it had been 10,000 years ago, this kind of person would have been beheaded."
Several Celestial Kings immediately frowned and started picking fault, full of disgust.
"Have you all said enough?" Xu Que calmly looked up and turned his gaze toward the ten Celestial Kings.
The Celestial Kings suddenly stared blankly, and the corners of their mouths immediately curled up. They shook their heads and simply found it beneath them to pay any attention to him.
"F*ck, it's over. You're all finished. How dare you provoke Brother Que?! It looks like you've never been dead before," Buttface said as he quickly jumped away and dashed to the side while continuously pointing to the ten Celestial Kings.
HISS! "The nerve of these ten fools…" Duan Jiude also looked like he was in shock. He even involuntarily retreated to the back.
But Xu Que still appeared to be very calm.
The calm before the storm was extremely stifling and suffocating.
"Come over here once you are finished talking."
He finished speaking, and his gaze imperceptibly swept over the ten Celestial Kings as he continued, "I want to fight the ten of you!"
Chapter 1439: Cheap and Showy

This…
Everyone present was bewildered and looked stupefied.
"What did this guy say?"
"He's going to fight ten of them?"
"Ten Celestial Kings?"
"Has he gone crazy? He is merely at the Human Celestial Stage and he wants to fight ten Celestial Kings. What a mental case!"
"This is no way to save face, much as he wants to."
"Oh, he's an ignorant junior playing to the gallery."
"Turns out that after making such a clamor for so long, this is the kind of trash coming from the Exploding Heavens Faction?"
The ten Celestial Kings shook their heads one after another and laughed.
They were completely unconcerned about Xu Que's provocation. They weren't the slightest bit angry.
After all, it was hard to be made angry by a provocation from an ant.
"D*mn, you smelly c*nts, you'd better watch your mouths in front of Your Holiness," Buttface flew into a rage on the spot and jumped up to stare hard at the ten Celestial Kings.
He could control himself if they were only scolding Xu Que.
But scolding the Exploding Heavens Faction was beyond the pale. It was like scolding him as well. F*ck, he wouldn't take it lying down.
"Master Buttface, don't get worked up. We'll teach them a lesson in a bit." Duan Jiude patted Buttface on the shoulder and comforted him.
HUMPH! "Your Holiness will listen to Master Duan and not fight with you today. But I'll mess you all up soon." Buttface was quick to anger, but his anger dissipated just as quickly.
He immediately used this opportunity to get out of an embarrassing situation.
After all, if it really came to blows now, he wouldn't have the guts to fight.
Yet these actions, in the eyes of the ten Celestial Kings and even in the eyes of everyone else present, were nothing more than bluffing and also somewhat comical.
How could the few people at the mere Human Celestial Stage and Earth Celestial Stage provoke the ten Celestial Kings with their fierce talk? It was really a matter of overestimating their capabilities!
"You don't want me to strike?" At this time, Zixia Fairy looked at Xu Que and asked with a look of surprise.
In truth, she still didn't know what Xu Que had planned. She only knew that he and Buttface, as well as Duan Jiude, had been busy outside for an entire night and had only rushed back when it was morning to ask for her help in kidnapping the Drug God.
Consequently, she didn't ask too many questions. Since Xu Que wanted it done, then she was bound to stand by Xu Que's side.
But just now when she'd moved to strike to teach the Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan a lesson, Xu Que had stopped her and had even pointed at the ten Celestial Kings. It was obvious that he didn't want her to make a move.
It was a little confusing for her. How could this guy…fight against ten Celestial Kings?
"It's not that I don't want you to, but it's not necessary." Xu Que smiled. In a breezy manner, he swept his gaze over the ten Celestial Kings and sneered. "These trashy things are not qualified enough for you to get rid of them."
"Son of a b*tch!" The Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan angrily swore at him immediately.
He could even try the patience of a Buddha. No matter how much they looked down on Xu Que, they were getting more and more angry with his constantly taunting them.
"What? You don't have the courage to fight me. What are you, if not trash?" Xu Que asked, with a hint of a smile.
"Brother Que, they're probably not even trash," Buttface said.
"That's right, don't insult trash. According to me, an old man, these ten people are basically a pile of sh*t!" Duan Jiude also nodded.
Buttface suddenly burst into anger. He jumped up and yelled, "Don't you dare insult sh*t!"
The words of the two men and the dog sparked the ten Celestial Kings' fury like igniting a bag of explosives.
"You're courting death," the Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan said angrily. He immediately rolled up his sleeves and formed a giant palm to swat toward Xu Que and the others.
They'd thought that the Exploding Heavens Faction had the help of a powerful Celestial Prime and, so in order to avoid fighting and both sides suffering, they'd decided to follow the Treaty of the Celestial Emperor to turn a major issue into a minor issue and for a minor issue to be reduced to nothing.
But the Celestial Prime hadn't stepped in and might not even really exist. Coupled with the vicious tongues of these two people and the dog, it was really more than they could bear.
BOOM!
An invisible giant palm once again swept through the Void and suddenly appeared out of thin air over the heads of Xu Que, Buttface, and Duan Jiude, bringing with it a terrifying vigor that came crashing down.
Zixia Fairy's expression turned cold, and she whipped up her Magic Art, ready to once again help Xu Que withstand this strike.
"Xuan'er, there's no need," Xu Que shouted immediately.
Zixia Fairy was taken aback. "There's no need?"
"Can you hold on?"
In shock, she unconsciously stayed her hand.
Xu Que stood in place with his hands on his hips and a face full of arrogance as he said, "Let him fight. I don't believe he can still kill today…"
BANG!
Before he'd finished speaking, the invisible giant palm abruptly accelerated and crashed down. It instantly covered Xu Que, Buttface, and Duan Jiude and ferociously smashed them into the ground.
It became deathly silent in an instant.
Everybody was struck dumb.
"What..what the h*ll was this?"
"Acting tough didn't work, and so they were roughed up instead?"
"Surely they are not going to die just like that, are they?"
At the same time, the Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan took back his hand and hummed coldly with a look of disgust across his whole face, "You reckless things…"
"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!" Suddenly, shrill laughter came from not far away.
All the people present were shocked and turned their heads to look. They were immediately flabbergasted.
The trio of Que, De, and Dog, which should have been smashed to death, appeared unexpectedly intact outside Tian Sha City. They stood halfway up a mountain, laughing loudly with smug expressions on their faces.
"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, you can't kill me. There's no way because I am so powerful! Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah!" Xu Que chortled and chanted, fully deserving of a good beating.
Soon after, Duan Jiude and Buttface were dancing hand in hand with their legs firmly fixed on the ground as their upper bodies shook wildly.
"Just like seagrass, seagrass, seagrass, seagrass, swaying with the waves!"
"Seagrass, seagrass, seagrass, seagrass, dancing in the ocean spray!"
…..
HISS!
In Tian Sha City, many people gasped audibly and involuntarily exclaimed.
"D*mn it, they are so shameless!"
"I feel like killing them!"
"My God, wait a minute, how did they run over there just now?" Someone exclaimed in surprise as he asked the question.
"That slap was certainly fast. Even the Golden Celestials of the Great All-Embracing Heavens couldn't escape it."
"This is so weird. They were running away right under our noses, and even the Celestial Kings didn't notice. Something's not right."
"No wonder they dare to be so arrogant. It turns out that they have an amazing ability of self-preservation."
"No, you're all wrong. Look at the wreckage on the ground."
"Huh, it this…the remnants of a spell?" Someone cried out in surprise.
The spot where Xu Que and the others had stood just now contained a large pit from the blast of the palm. But inside was full of broken remnants of a spell.
"So, this is…what was here earlier was just an illusion of the three of them?"
"An illusion? An illusion that even those Celestial Kings couldn't detect? How is that possible?"
"So, in other words, the rumors that say the Exploding Heavens Faction is awesome aren't without reason."
"It's so scary. These cheap and showy Magic Art spells are absolutely unheard of!"
Many people started talking about it over and over.
The ten Celestial Kings all frowned. It seemed very unexpected that Xu Que, Buttface, and Duan Jiude had actually sneaked past them right underneath their noses. They had also set up an Illusion Spell that had successfully deceived them.
"Interesting. He's actually good at these Illusion Spells." The corners of the young male Celestial King's lips abruptly turned up.
"Unfortunately, it's impressive-looking but useless. If he really had ability, he wouldn't have had to use these crooked methods," an old woman shook her head and said coldly.
"What else is everyone waiting for? Let's charge up together and avenge our Divine Farmer Clan. You can carry out the Treaty of the Celestial Emperor," the Celestial King of the Divine Farmer Clan said.
The youthful looking female Celestial King hesitated as she said, "Aren't we going to wait for those old guys from the Heaven Palace Academy and the Sage Sect? Just in case the Exploding Heavens Faction really does have a Celestial Prime…���
"If they really had a powerful Celestial Prime, why would they still need to use such despicable methods?" The old man of the Divine Farmer Clan sneered.
Then his figure went SWISH and suddenly transformed into a ray of light, rushing toward Xu Que.
The other nine people looked at each other, and in the end only three people followed, leaving the remaining six people standing in place with no intention of going over.
In their view, even if the Exploding Heavens Faction didn't have a powerful Celestial Prime, there was no need to send so many Celestial Kings to kill Xu Que and the others.
But…
"F*ck, boy, only four of them came!"
"Four of them are not enough!"
"Hey, you other six idiots opposite, don't just watch. Yes, I'm talking about the six of you. What are you still standing there for? Come over and chop me up if you dare!"
