Chapter 1499: They’re Back

“Sh*t, what does this have to do with young ladies? Little fellow, are you valuing sex over friendship?” Buttface shouted at Xu Que with a look of distaste.

“This has nothing to do with valuing sex over friendship. It’s about my good relationship with my sister,” Xu Que said calmly.

Initially, he had really just wanted to find someone, and thus had gone to the Heaven Palace Academy to see if he could find out any important news. But then he’d had a brainstorm and decided it would be a good idea to go to the Jade Lake Holy Land. The Heaven Continent was so boring right now. Xu Que thought it would be fun… to form a girl group.

“Little Que Que, what are you saying? Which sister do you have a good relationship with?” Liu Jingning asked mockingly.

Xu Que suddenly paused and turned his head to look at her. Liu Jingning looked at him with a forced smile. Jiang Hongyan and Zixia Fairy were also staring at him fixedly.

Sh*t, he was in hot water now!

Xu Que’s desire for survival instantly appeared. “Well, don’t get me wrong. I didn’t mean it like that!”

“Then what did you mean?” Zixia Fairy asked nonchalantly.

“No wonder you always run to Jade Lake. You must really miss the girls.” Liu Jingning continued her sarcastic comments.

“That is absolutely not true.” Xu Que immediately became serious and said righteously, “Others may not know me very well, but the three of you? What kind of person do you think I am? Other than the three of you, I’m not interested in any other women.”

“Huh?” Buttface and Duan Jiude gasped, hugging their chests to keep from laughing, and taking a step back as if to protect themselves.

Xu Que couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to these two idiots and continued shouting, “Ever since I’ve come to the Heaven Continent, I haven’t approached any other women. Even while eating chicken wings, if I learned the chicken wing came from a mother hen, I would stop eating.”

PFFT!

Liu Jingning couldn’t help but laugh out loud. She rolled her eyes, shook her head, and said, “Okay, I won’t tease you anymore. Let’s talk about serious matters. What do you want to do with the people in Jade Lake? What does this have to do with the powerful figures from the Heaven Palace Sect?”

“Hey, there’s no relationship between the two. I just had a sudden whim. I saw a way I could make a profit from it, and Jade Lake would also benefit from it. It’s a win-win situation.” Xu Que smiled. He was beginning to look forward to it. It was almost as if he could see a large amount of Acting Tough Points waiting for him.

“Profit? Sh*t, little fellow, right now we should be worrying about the powerful people from the Heaven Palace Sect, and all you’re thinking about is making a profit?” Duan Jiude demanded angrily.

Xu Que smiled and said, “As long as I make a profit, I can take care of the powerful people from the Heaven Palace Sect.”

In fact, he was not entirely helpless now. In addition to the undisclosed trump card he held, he had also received another ace card from the System: the Debt Collector Beat Debtors card.

As long as the System’s revenge mechanism was activated and he fought hard, there was a chance for him to be able to kill all the powerful figures from the Heaven Palace Sect. However, it was a larger risk than usual.

Therefore, except in the case of very last resort, Xu Que didn’t want to use these two trump cards too quickly. After all, there were still Celestial Emperor-level Elders in the Celestial Cloud Continent that he might have to deal with in the future.

There was also another, more conventional way to become stronger. This was to continue to earn Acting Tough Points, continue to upgrade the System, upgrade his own realm level, and then forcibly crush his opponents. It was also for this reason that he had been inspired to go to the Jade Lake Holy Land. He had figured out that it was a way to earn Acting Tough Points.

That day, the group made their move to leave.

A few people still maintained their puppet disguises, concealing their essences, as they boarded the teleportation device. They left the Ziwei Celestial Realm, crossed over the Tianxiang Celestial Realm, and finally reached Tianxiang City.

Although the Jade Lake Holy Land had closed their gates, Tianxiang City was still half-open, and it was only a few hundred miles away from the Jade Lake Holy Land.

After Xu Que and his party had arrived at Tianxiang City, they didn’t waste any time but rushed off in the direction of the Jade Lake Holy Land.

There was no need to destroy the mountain’s protective Spell Array. It was enough to just send an invitation card with the signature, Xu Que of the Exploding Heavens Faction.

“Little fellow, an invitation card is used by people with etiquette. It’s not your usual style. Are you sure that’s a good idea? Not everyone will be happy to see you.” Buttface was skeptical.

“Oh, let’s just wait and see. Within five seconds, they will come out to greet us.”

Xu Que shook his head and waved his hand, changing their puppet disguises back to their normal appearances, although he kept their essences concealed.

He was convinced that, as long as the people in the Jade Lake Holy Land had not heard about Xu Que offending the influential figures of the Heaven Palace Sect, they would surely come out to meet them.

“Sh*t, I don’t believe you. Five, four…” Buttface seemed very confident and felt certain that the people of Jade Lake wouldn’t want to meet such a demon as Xu Que.

However, after getting to four, and just before he shouted three…

BOOM!

The mountain’s protective spell suddenly shook, and a muffled sound rang out.

“Sh*t.” Buttface was instantly dumbfounded.

Everyone’s gazes swept toward the center of where the spell had been. Several figures came out and hurried over to them. There were several disciples of the Jade Lake Holy Land, led by Bai Cailing. They had opened the mountain’s protective spell without any hesitation whatsoever.

A long time ago, Xu Que had known Bai Cailing, and later, when he had been impersonating his father, he had spent time with her again. It had been many, many years since Bai Cailing had last met with Xu Que.

However, she’d recognized Xu Que at first sight. After all… talented and good-looking people often left deep impressions. Especially in this case, where the unique roguish feeling that Xu Que projected wasn’t really something others could imitate.

“Sh*t, they are really coming out to see him,” Buttface murmured, slightly embarrassed.

“Xu fellow, Holy Virgin Jiang, long time, no see!”

Bai Cailing had brought along a few female disciples from the Jade Lake Holy Land, who had already rushed over and were waving hello to Xu Que.

Holding a spell flag in her hand, Bai Cailing had opened an entrance in the mountain’s protective spell. The other female disciples saluted Xu Que and his party members, one after another.

“The legendary man who had done so many heinous acts recently is right in front of us?”

“Was Elder Xu, the man who revived the Peach Garden in Jade Lake, the father of this young man?”

Several female disciples had curious expressions on their faces as if they were interested in and unfamiliar with Xu Que.

“Miss Bai, how have you been doing?” Xu Que smiled widely and responded to Bai Cailing.

He was quite familiar with some of these Jade Lake female disciples, but he didn’t show it. He just pretended not to know them, smiling as Bai Cailing and the others led them into the Jade Lake Holy Land.

“Xu, you’ve been in the limelight a lot lately. It is a great honor for us that you have chosen to come to the Jade Lake Holy Land.” Bai Cailing laughed.

“Miss Bai is too polite. I’d heard that my father had a good relationship with the Jade Lake Holy Land. So, of course, I felt that I must come to visit from time to time. I wonder if the Jade Lake Saint is in the Holy Land?” Xu Que smiled with the fake politeness of a businessman.

Bai Cailing paused slightly and smiled. “Xu, you’ve come at the wrong time. The Saint left the Tianxiang Celestial Realm a few days ago and went to the Ziwei Celestial Realm.”

“Oh? She went to the Ziwei Celestial Realm?” Xu Que was confused. He had just made a big scene in the Ziwei Celestial Realm. “Why did the Jade Lake Saint go there at this time?”

“This…”

Bai Cailing hesitated for a second, and then she said, “In fact, it is no big secret. You may not know, but some of the powerful figures of the Heaven Palace Sect who disappeared a long time ago have now returned. They convened a meeting and asked all the powerful and influential ancestors to come to meet them. The Jade Lake Saint was just accompanying my ancestors from Jade Lake.”

“Sh*t!”

Xu Que’s eyes got wide, and the expressions of Duan Jiude and the others also changed slightly.

“What are they holding a large meeting about?” Xu Que asked straightforwardly.
