Chapter 1252: Isn’t it Annoying?

Hearing that, Buttface and Duan Jiude were stunned. Then they started to recall their time in the presence of Xuanyuan Wanrong. However, their memories about Xuanyuan Wanrong’s words were not as clear as Xu Que’s. At the same time, Xu Que opened the System package and started to search for something in it rapidly. After several seconds, he fixed his eyes on an object. Got you!

Whoosh! Xu Que waved his hand, and suddenly an ancient plate appeared in it. On the front of the plate, three words could be seen—Heaven Palace Sect. On the back of the plate, two more words could be seen—South Building.

“It is as I expected!” Xu Que exclaimed, with a knowing look on his face. When he agreed to become an apprentice of Xuanyuan Wanrong, she gave him a plate and said that he had become a temporary apprentice of the Heaven Palace Sect’s South Building. However, Xu Que had forgotten all about this for a long time. When Buttface and Duan Jiude, who had stayed in the Heaven Continent for several years, told him that something had happened in the Heaven Continent, he didn’t remember this plate.

Jiang Hongyan had joined the Jade Lake first and became the new generation Holy Virgin of the Jade Lake. Then she joined the Heaven Palace Academy. Many geniuses, including the Divine Being, cast greedy eyes on her not only because of her beauty, but also because of her Body of Heavenly Kismet. When Xu Que looked at the plate in his hand and remembered the words of Xuanyuan Wanrong, he figured out that she was also a member of the Heaven Palace Sect.

“Wait! This can’t be correct!” At this time, an idea occurred to Xu Que, who frowned and said as he looked at the plate, “Buttface, before Hongyan joined the Heaven Palace Academy, was there a place in the Heaven Continent of which the name was the Heaven Palace Sect?”

Buttface and Duan Jiude were stunned by his words. They said as they looked at the plate in Xu Que’s hand with puzzlement, “Aren’t the Heaven Palace Academy and the Heaven Palace Sect the same place? Anyway, little brat, did that woman give this plate to you?”

“Little brat, the Heaven Palace Academy is also called the Heaven Palace Sect on the Heaven Continent. So, they should represent the same place!” Duan Jiude added.

At this time, Mo Junchen, who had looked at the plate in Xu Que’s hand with puzzlement, shouted in surprise, “No! It is not! The Heaven Palace Academy and the Heaven Palace Sect are not the same!”

“Oh? Guardian Mo, what do you mean?” Xu Que raised his eyebrows and asked Mo Junchen. Apparently, Mo Junchen knew something. After all, he had been to the Heaven Continent several thousand years ago. So, he should know more information than Buttface and Duan Jiude.

“Where…did you get this plate? It is very ominous!” Instead of providing any explanation, Mo Junchen pointed at the plate in Xu Que’s hand and trembled with fear as he took two steps back. Seeing that, Buttface and Duan Jiude also stepped back. Although they didn’t know why the plate was ominous, the two cowards were frightened by Mo Junchen’ s reaction.

“Ominous? After I obtained this plate, nothing bad happened to me!” Xu Que smiled as he looked at the plate in his hand calmly. Mo Junchen realized his reaction was inappropriate. But he still didn’t approach Xu Que, but said, standing where he was, “Faction Leader, actually, the Heaven Palace Academy originated from the Heaven Palace Sect. To be exact, the Heaven Palace Sect disappeared many years ago. An abandoned apprentice of the Heaven Palace Sect set up the Heaven Palace Academy later. The names of these two sects are quite similar. But there is a big difference between the Heaven Palace Sect and the Heaven Palace Academy!”

“What? Then, why do you say this plate is ominous?” Xu Que asked.

“Because…all members of the Heaven Palace Sect, including the sect leader and all the apprentices, died overnight. Even the apprentices of the Heaven Palace Sect who were traveling in the outside world died. The sect leader and other heads just disappeared and nobody ever saw their bodies!” Mo Junchen turned pale and said, as his hands trembled, “I know about this from the ancient books. Many people on the Heaven Continent also know about this People don’t talk about it. Nobody wants to remember it. The Heaven Palace Sect has become an ominous name. Those who have this plate would be deemed as an apprentice of the Heaven Palace Sect. These people will meet with misfortune and even die an unnatural death!”

“Boo, this is absurd! Does it mean the Heaven Palace Sect was cursed? Will all members of the Heaven Palace Sect die? This is totally nonsense!” Xu Que said disdainfully. Then he threw the plate suddenly away from him and said, putting his palms together devoutly, “Amitabha, the Buddha blesses me! That woman gave the plate to me! I didn’t agree to become an apprentice of the Heaven Palace Sect! Amen!”

Buttface, “…”

Duan Jiude, “…”

Mo Junchen’s lips twitched, and he shook his head. Then he sighed as he looked again at the palace in front of him. “The Heaven Palace Sect used to be a gigantic sect, which had at least 100 Golden Celestials of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, 3,000 Taiyi Celestials, and over 100,000 apprentices at the Golden Celestial Stage. Its sect leader and several Building Heads even reached the stage of Celestial Prime! Someone said they were very close to the Celestial Emperor! If they were still alive, they would be invincible in the Heaven Continent!” At this time, Mo Junchen paused a bit. Then, he said with fear, “However, such a powerful sect was destroyed overnight, which goes beyond the imaginations of all people. It should be impossible even during the peak stage of the Heaven Continent, unless…”

“Unless what?” Xu Que asked immediately. Buttface and Duan Jiude also looked at Mo Junchen with great curiosity.

“Unless they were killed by the deities! However, deities shouldn’t have appeared in that period. Therefore, among so much gossip, one hearsay was the most convincing—the Heaven Palace Sect was cursed by the deities!” Mo Junchen said seriously.

“Cursed?” Hearing that, Xu Que was surprised and his eyelids twitched a bit. An issue which had almost been forgotten by him reappeared in his mind at this time. When he was in the Fire Nation, the System reminded him that he was cursed by the Fire God. However, after that, nothing bad had happened to him. So, he had almost forgotten it. He remembered it when he heard the God of Hell. Now, he remembered it again when Mo Junchen mentioned the curse.

“Faction Leader, this is quite queer. I’m afraid the one who gave you this plate must have done it with an evil thought!” Mo Junchen said at this time.

Xu Que smiled, “I don’t know whether she did it with malice or not. But I know she doesn’t have the guts to kill me! By the way, you are curious about the woman we are talking about just now, right? She is the owner of this palace!” Mo Junchen was stunned a bit. Then he nodded his head with a smile. Just now, he was confused by the conversation among Xu Que, Buttface, and Duan Jiude. So, he was quite happy to hear Xu Que’s explanation.

“That woman…is so annoying!” Xu Que squinted his eyes and continued to say as he looked at the palace, “This woman, who gave me this plate, is a Building Head of the Heaven Palace Sect. Her name is Xuanyuan Wanrong!”

“Wh…at?” Hearing that, Mo Junchen was totally stunned and his eyes were full of fear.

Xu Que continued to say with a smile, “By the way, that woman admires my handsomeness. So, she showed her love to me and forced me to become her Cultivation Companion at last! Isn’t it annoying?”
