Ultimate Scheming System
chapter-245

The entire throne room which had been destroyed by Xu Que a few days ago had already been rebuilt and refurbished.

It only took an entire day and night as the Flaming Sun Princess led a group of cultivators while they repeatedly casted spells and joined efforts to rebuild the entire throne room.

Although it wasn’t as glorious or beautiful as it once was, it still resembled a majestic throne room fit for an Emperor.

However, the atmosphere within the throne room was one of utter silence. Even the air around was still and tense. Outside the palace, the group of people were cheering and shouting in joy as they danced uncontrollably to Xu Que’s music.

The many high ranking officials and ministers within the throne room had strange looks etched across their faces and the Fire Emperor was extremely enraged as well, as killing intent swirled around him!

These ministers and officials had been invited to the palace to welcome the Water Empress on this very day.

Now, the Water Empress didn’t enter the palace. Instead, Xu Que had come and caused such a spectacle outside. He was singing songs about beautiful clouds and about the most dazzling folks which sounded extremely bizzare to everyone inside the palace.

Clouds your sister! Winds your sister! What kind of rubbish are you singing?! Low class!

The few ministers and officials had looks of displeasure written across their faces.

There were several high ranking generals in the palace as well, who clenched their fists tightly, looking rather worried that something might happen.

In actual fact, most of the people within the room were trying their hardest not to burst out in song and dance. Despite the fact that these people had received a great deal of education, they were still being tempted by the loud music going outside. It took all of their concentration not to rush out of the door and join everyone outside.

If it weren’t for the fact that they were stuck within the throne room, they would have praised the song for sounding very upbeat and catchy!

Flaming Sun Princess and Zi Xuan were only of the Golden Core Stage. However, they were relying on the protection from the remnants of Imperial Qi in the palace. Hence, they were excluded from the effects of the alluring music on their souls!

At this point, their faces looked grim and severe.

Zi Xuan had long anticipated this. She had been certain that Xu Que would be able to walk out of the throne room unscathed and she had been right.

However, the Flaming Sun Princess never entertained this possibility at all.

From her perspective as a member of the Imperial family, she understood how the tombs worked and how dangerous it was. She had been brought up thinking that anyone who entered the tombs wouldn’t be able to make it out alive.

Many years ago, one of her ancestors entered the throne room and never made it out alive. She knew how powerful that ancestor was. If he’d failed to emerge alive, that goes to show how many powerful spells there were within the tombs.

And yet Xu Que who was only a kid of the Original Infant Stage could enter so easily and come out of the throne room in such a short span of time. In fact, he even managed to bring out eighteen generations of her ancestors. This had completely surpassed her expectations!

"Emperor father… what should we do now?"

Even the bright and resourceful Flaming Sun Princess didn’t know what to do in this current situation as well.

She knew that her father had called for the assistance of the Tian Sha Assassins and she knew that there was a level eight Infant Transformation Staged elder, nicknamed Killer God who had come as well. But for some strange reason, she felt that even them would have a hard time killing Xu Que.

After all, that person… couldn’t be seen as someone ordinary anymore. Thus, extreme measures would have to be taken to deal with him.

It was impossible for an ordinary cultivator who was of the Original Infant Stage to be able to survive or even defeat an Infant Transformation Stage cultivator.

It was impossible for an ordinary person to be singing songs at such a crucial time outside the Imperial Palace.

The more she heard the song, the more flustered and irritated the Flaming Sun Princess became.

The Fire Emperor was enraged at this point. His own ancestors of eighteen generations had been dragged out and made to dance outside of the Imperial Palace and he was forced to retreat into his palace. He knew that he had completely thrown his dignity and face away.

He also realized that he had fled and ran away in front of the Water Empress which caused him to feel even more embarrassed of his own actions!

"Looks like… only the group of Tian Sha Assassins can stop that slimy bastard. When they finally capture him, I shall use my Emperor’s Energy and kill him with their help!" The Fire Emperor spoke in a hushed tone as his eyes revealed a look of intense hatred.

"This time, we must not let him escape. If not, the Emperor’s Energy would once again go to waste!" The Flaming Sun Princess nodded her head in agreement.

"Haha! This time, he won’t be able to escape! When I call upon the Emperor’s Energy again…" The Fire Emperor laughed out as he tried connecting himself to the Emperor’s Energy. However, even before he could complete his sentence, his laughter froze on his face.

"How could this be? I can’t feel the Emperor’s Energy anymore!" The Fire Emperor was beyond astonished and his voice trembled in fear. The Emperor’s Energy was his ultimate and last resort!

When the Flaming Sun Princess heard this, her face fell.

Can’t feel the Emperor’s Energy anymore? How was this possible?

As a member of the Imperial family, with the blood of Emperors flowing in his veins, it was impossible that he couldn’t feel the Emperor’s Energy anymore. Unless it had been completely used up… wait a minute. The Emperor’s Energy had been used up?

The Fire Emperor and Flaming Sun Princess looked like they were thinking the exact same thing as their pupils dilated and they lost all color in their faces!

Zi Xuan was standing by the side and heard them speaking. She then saw both of them turning pale before she understood what had happened.

Emperor’s Energy? In the Imperial Tombs?

"Could it be…" Zi Xuan started thinking about the frightening possibility.

Could it truly be that Xu Que forced his way into the Imperial Tombs and released all the Emperor’s Energy?

"That’s impossible! Absolutely impossible! How did he manage to enter the tombs where the Emperor’s laid to rest?" The Fire Emperor shouted out in anger.

All the ministers and officials paused in shock as they turned to look at the Fire Emperor as their faces were filled with suspicions.

What’s wrong with the Fire Emperor?

Flaming Sun Princess and Zi Xuan were shocked to their core and were in disbelief!

The room where all the Fire Emperors were laid to rest was the part of the Imperial Tombs which had the strongest and most powerful restrictive spells. Even cultivators of the Void Refining Stage would find it hard to break through the spells as only people with blood of the Imperial family would be able to gain entry.

Hence, even if they knew that Xu Que managed to break into the Imperial Tomb, they weren’t worried that he could enter the most sacred places where the spells were the strongest.

But now, the Fire Emperor couldn’t feel the Emperor’s Energy at all. Didn’t that mean that… Xu Que had already found his way to expand all the Emperor’s Energy through their physical bodies? And those eighteen spirits were being extracted from their bodies?

The entire throne room fell into absolute silence once again.

The crushing and tense atmosphere was almost unbearable as it filled the entire throne room!

However, the events outside the palace resembles a huge crazy party!

It was as if Xu Que himself had organized the party of the year with the best sound system around. Once again, he activated the automatic function of the system to control the electronic keyboard and allowed it to play on itself.

Soon after, different work out songs and music started playing throughout the entire area around the palace.

"You are, you are my little apple, no matter how much I love you, it would never be enough. Your red little cheeks fill my heart with love, as you are the fire which ignites my life… fire fire fire fire fire!"

"Yo, yo, yo, check it out! Fahai, you don’t understand love, Leifeng Pagoda will fall, Fahai you don’t understand love, Leifeng Pagoda will fall..."

"Everybody, raise your hands, work it!" Xu Que shouted loudly into the microphone.

Whoosh!

All of a sudden, the music stopped and everyone froze. Xu Que then placed the microphone close to his lips and spoke in a low voice, "Oppa Gangnam Style!"

"Deng deng deng deng…" The music rang out loudly once again.

"Areum dawo sarang seureo wo, Jigeumbuteo gal dekkaji gabolkka… Oppa gangnam style… Gangnam style…"

Everyone started dancing in a frenzy as they cheered loudly, moving their arms and legs in a wild fashion. They were all completely immersed by the Four Star Musician ability and were completely under his control.

Since this old man is in control, of course he moves in a steadfast and stable manner!

The Four Star Musician talent had been completely loosed on the crowd, causing the eighteen spirits to lose all control of their own will to move. Some of them were dancing so hard that their pants had dropped to their ankles!

Many Original Infant Staged cultivators were unable to control themselves. At this point, even several Imperial Guards had joined in the dancing!

Xu Que had completely brainwashed all of them by his music. In fact, one could say that their ears were being raped by Xu Que and were soon becoming pregnant!

(T/N : This is a chinese slang, which I personally find a little strange.)

The entire area outside the Palace was filled with cheers and dancing. The Water Empress watched on from above while a sweet smile hung across her face as she watched Xu Que as though she had gained a new insight into Xu Que and looked at him in a different way!

"Whoosh!"

Right at this point, numerous flashes of lights could be seen in the air and looked like a majestica display of fireworks. These flashed of lights surrounded Xu Que and wrapped around him.

"Careful!" The Water Empress was taken aback as she reminded Xu Que. At the same time, she waved her hand to conjure a protective spell.

Indeed, Xu Que’s face was filled with cold smiles as he activated his Eight Waste Destruction Flames.

"Boom!"

At that point, a large pair of black wings formed from behind his shoulder blades. They were so massive that they obscured the skies.

The heat which radiated out from his wings were very extreme as it coursed through all directions.

"Ah!!!" At the same time, several cultivators around Xu Que shouted out in pain.

The few shadows around Xu Que didn’t even had a chance to allow their bodies to materialize as they were burnt to dust. One by one, the Tian Sha Assassins who had surrounded Xu Que were being obliterated by the intense heat and turned to ashes, being carried away by the winds.

The Water Empress watched on in shock as her face was filled with astonishment!

"Deng deng deng…" the song changed once again. Xu Que had activated the automatic ability of the system and the current track had ended, allowing a new track to be randomly played!

"It’s so lonely to be peerless!"

"It’s feels so empty to be peerless!"

"Standing atop the highest mountains, with the cold air blowing ferociously against my skin!"

"Who can understand me, who can understand my loneliness..."
