Chapter 1385: I Was Wrong!

BANG!

The spiritual Qi in the air changed, and suddenly hundreds of thousands of sharp swords were formed in the air. They looked magnificent and floated around Mo Junchen.

He raised his palm lightly and one of the swords shuddered. The tip of the sword turned, facing up to the sky. As Mo Junchen waved his palm some more, the swords fell down like rain, piercing through the bodies of all the Sea Tribe members.

That sort of power only belongs to someone at the peak of the Golden Celestial stage. Nothing could stop it. Regardless of whether the members of the Sea Tribe were at the Form Synthesis stage or the Crossing Calamity stage, all of their powers were insignificant. None of them could withstand the spell cast by Mo Junchen. All of them suffered and died, falling onto the ground.

“How…how can this be?”

“No, that’s impossible. How can there be such a strongman within the human beings?”

“This man is on the same level as the master of my tribe!”

“Retreat, hurry, retreat!”

“Ah…”

Suddenly, the vanguard of the Sea Tribe became terrified. They screamed and shouted, trying to escape in all directions.

Unfortunately, however fast they were, they were no match for Mo Junchen’s spell. Very quickly, one Sea Tribe member after another lost their lives.

“Oh, d*mn! Guardian Mo’s skills are really amazing,” Buttface said in awe.

“All the credit goes to him,” Duan Jiude said, feeling that this was unfair.

“Forget it, Teacher Duan. We’re all a team. We’ve got to give Guardian Mo a chance to perform,” Buttface patted Duan Jiude’s shoulders as he consoled him.

Mo Junchen was stunned. “What credit?”

All he did was to kill the invaders and enemies. How could that have angered Duan Jiude?

“Forget it, Guardian Mo. You did a brilliant job. All the masters could only admire your skills. That’s because you’re different from them, you’re amazing. Your skills are agile and classy. They are not overly showy!” Buttface started to provide a commentary as though he was an expert.

Xu Que too nodded his head and looked at Mo Junchen. He said, “Buttface is right. But Guardian Mo, although the display of your skills was right and nearly perfect, it was lacking just a little prudence and simplicity. It’s difficult for people to relate to. If you could be more prudent, you’ll be able to get closer to my level. I hope to be able to meet you on the final stage of the Act-Tough Competition. Hence, I’m giving you a yes.”

“Even he gave you a yes.” Buttface gave him a thumbs-up.

Duan Jiude was unhappy, and he shook his head, “Although you guys gave him two votes up, I still have to give him a no.”

“???”

Mo Junchen was confused and didn’t know what was going on. “What exactly did he do wrong?

“What exactly were the three of them talking about?”

AIYEE!

At that moment, the small fish that Buttface was clutching suddenly screeched.

It was only now that it had calmed down from the fear and terror. It shouted, “No, that’s impossible. You humans…how can you guys be as strong as the master of my kind? Our master, he just awakened after years of staying in hibernation. How did your people achieve that?”

“Ha, ha, it seems like the master from your tribe is also of the Golden Celestial stage.” Xu Que smiled. If it was the Golden Celestial stage, then it was no threat.

However, that also created a problem. How could someone from a mere Golden Celestial stage be able to threaten the safety of Xuanyuan Wanrong?

That didn’t make sense. Unless Xuanyuan Wanrong had already been in a dangerous position when the Sea Tribe had taken the opportunity to strike?

Xu Que shook his head as he tried to make sense of what had happened. To find out the truth, he would still need to enter the Burial Valley to see for himself. At the moment, his prized possessions were the two spirits and the System that was about to be promoted to a higher level.

Currently, he was most worried about there being more dangerous enemies hidden somewhere. After all, Xuanyuan Wanrong had divulged earlier that she was not the only strong practitioner who had been lying low in the Four Great Continents!

WHOOSH!

Suddenly the whoosing sounds came again from the dark holes in the sky.

Then a massive snake slipped out. The eight-headed snake stuck out its tongue, looking superior as its presence exuded magnificence.

Behind it, there were more than ten practitioners who appeared. Each of them was wearing a long black robe. On the robes was a brooch that said Exploding Heavens Faction in red letters. They looked suave.

“Trash from the Sea Tribe, if you have the guts, don’t run off. I will kill you all.” The eight-headed snake shouted out loudly after appearing.

However, very soon, it froze in the air. The stench of fish and blood still hung in the air. The situation then became clear that the vanguard troops of the Sea Tribe had already been destroyed. The few men standing around on the ground caught the snake’s eyes.

It looked down, with its eight faces looking at Xu Que and his men in shock.

“Brother dog!” Eight voices bellowed out from the eight-headed snake, causing the place to pulse with its voice.

The voice carried a myriad of emotions: torture, yearning, agitation, and grievance.

“Little brother,” Buttface shouted and held his arms open.

The eight-headed snake lowered itself from the sky and turned into a silhouette, rushing toward Buttface. It was about to jump onto Buttface’s head.

Buttface’s expression changed, “D*mn it, if you want to get atop me, then you better morph into Poodle.”

PFFT! It was only then that the eight-headed snake realized that it was no longer small like the Poodle. Hence, it stopped itself in the sky, smiling dryly.

At the same time, more people came from behind it and noticed Buttface and Duan Jiude. They chanted, “Paying our regards to assistant faction leader, paying our respect to the Elders.”

Then someone looked at Liu Jingning and greeted her, “Paying our respects to the Faction Leader’s Lady.”

Liu Jingning’s face turned red. Although she had been addressed that way many times before, this was the first time she’d been addressed that way in front of Xu Que.

Most important, among those who greeted her were Elders and disciples from the Utmost Happiness Faction. They were all now looking at her, smiling.

As for Xu Que and Mo Junchen, they were ignored.

It was no surprise for Mo Junchen because not many people had seen him before. As for Xu Que, he was still maintaining the look of a sickly old man. His disguise still looked very realistic, and even his breathing and cultivation stage had changed. Hence, it was no surprise that the crowd did not recognize him.

“Brother Dog, where did you guys go all this time? I’ve missed you guys! And where’s Brother Que? Why is he not here? Is he…dead?”

The eight-headed snake surveyed the people standing around him. When it couldn’t spot Xu Que, its face changed and it started to mourn, “Brother Xu, you’ve suffered a terrible death. I should’ve guessed that a showy man like you wouldn’t be able to lead a long life. But I never thought that your life would be this short. I’m heartbroken.”

“D*mn!”

Xu Que’s eyebrows twitched, and he stared blankly ahead.

This creature was aching for a beating. It was just like Buttface!

“Oh, Poodle, I haven’t seen you for many years. You’re all grown up now.”

Xu Que inched forward, smiling as he stared at the eight-headed snake.

The eight-headed snake was surprised by the voice. It looked at Xu Que and said gingerly, “Who…who are you?”

It scrutinized the features of old Xu Que. It couldn’t see any connection between this old man and Xu Que. However, what he’d said sounded like Xu Que in terms of the tone and emotions.

“Me? I’m Xu Que’s father.” Xu Que said, his eyes squinting from his suppressed laughter.

“What? Where did Xu Que get a dad. If you’re his dad, I’m his grandpa,” The eight-headed snake bellowed.

After that, silence fell upon the scene.

Buttface and Duan Jiude couldn’t help but widen their eyes. They gave the eight-headed snake a thumbs-up.

“Daring, daring,” Duan Jiude said in awe.

“Indeed, indeed!” Buttface exclaimed.

Xu Que’s face darkened as he suddenly got an idea. He morphed out of the disguise and, in a split second, he returned to the state of a handsome young man.

“Ha, ha, little Poodle, you have become so daring now, is that it? I’ve been craving for some snake liquor lately.”

BANG!

The eight-headed snake collapsed onto the ground. It cried, though no tears fell from his eyes, “Grandpa, I was wrong!”

At the same time, the people behind the eight-headed snake started to cry tears of joy. They look at Xu Que with respect and awe and cheered, “Paying our respects to the Faction Leader!”
