Ultimate Scheming System

chapter-927
That day, after Xu Que had left the M Nation, all sorts of rumors and tales spread across the whole globe. However, the Rothschild conglomerate was unexpectedly quiet. Levan fell into a funk after he had received the call from the vice leader, Mord. He was now facing a difficult choice. He could either take Xu Que's side and lose all of his status and power and be forever under that man. Or, he could take a gamble. He now has a chance to, not only suppress Xu Que, but also seize control of the entire world.
His decision today would depend on their evaluation of Xu Que's strength against that of his enemy. They would stand with the one who was the most powerful.
Levan paused for a long time, before returning the call, "Mord, are you sure that those three are angels? My god, do angels really exist?"
Mord laughed on the other end of the phone, "My dear Levan, even the mythical creatures of Huaxia have appeared! Why can't the gods of us in the West appear? Believe me. Once you come over and take a look at these confidential photos, you'll understand that our faith all these years was not wasted!"
Levan's expression changed slightly as he said in a hushed voice, "Can they stand up to Xu Que? You have to understand that there's also a woman with Xu Que, and she seems to be of exceptional caliber.""Ha, ha, rest assured. The three Angels are asleep within three bronze coffins, divine, mighty, sacred, and inviolable. We have contacted them using a satellite. They have sent us a message through Spiritual Consciousness. They are here to eradicate Xu Que and that woman with him!"
"Then why do we need to welcome them in?"
"I think it's because Xu Que had activated some mysterious power that hindered their landing on Earth. However, they had sensed a familiar aura on Revival Island. They suspect that they have a descendant bloodline remaining there, and would try to land there. We need to send a spaceship to stand by. Levan, be clear about this, there are three Angels while there are only two people on Xu Que's side. It should be very apparent to you which side is the stronger one."
"However...this might be difficult. With our current technology, it might take quite a while to prepare a spaceship!"
"He, he, you don't need to worry about that! I have established a collaboration with the Xia Family of Huaxia. They are enemies with Xu Que too. They have agreed to use their influence in Huaxia to sponsor the technology for our spaceship engine, to fetch the three Angels to descend to the Earth, killing Xu Que!"
"What? The Xia Family of Huaxia is this powerful?"
"Ha, ha, while they might not be as wealthy as the Rothschild Family, their influence is comparable to ours! Huaxia is, indeed, an amazing place!""Okay. If so, I will take a gamble! Commence the operation, and take note not to leak any news."
In the end, Levan bit the bullet and made a choice. As compared to having the entire Rothschild Family swallowed by Xu Que, he would rather give his all in one last shot to fetch the three Angels to Earth, killing Xu Que. Also, Mord had told him over the phone that the three Angels had reached an agreement with them. So long as they had exterminated Xu Que, they would help the Rothschild conglomerate dominate the world before they left. This realm is not suitable for them to live and was too lowly a plane for them.
Therefore, under such temptations, Levan had forgotten the fear he used to have for Xu Que!
An evil plot against Xu Que began to unfold.
...
That night, Xu Que took Xu Feifei and Jiang Hongyan back to Huaxia and checked into a luxurious hotel in the capital.
Huaxia caught news of his return and tried to send someone to negotiate, but backed off when they saw the Do Not Disturb sign Xu Que hung on the door. That was because Xu Que had handwritten an extra note under the sign. So in full, it read, Do Not Disturb, all who knock will find their whole family dead!
Who would dare to knock in the face of such blatant threatening?
Once Jiang Hongyan returned, she instantly sat down, crossed her legs on the carpet, and went into a state of cultivation.
Xu Que grabbed a bathrobe excitedly as he walked into the room, preparing to enjoy a hot bath. Not that he was dirty, but he had not enjoyed the thrill of having a long, hot bath for too many years. He wanted to try it when he could and re-experience life on Earth.
"Feifei, wait for me on the bed! I'll come out once I finish bathing!"
Xu Feifei went into her room and lay on the bed. She knew what would happen next. The thought long hidden in her heart would finally come true soon.
"Pa-ta!"
Finally, Xu Que walked out of the bathroom and looked at Xu Feifei smilingly, "Feifei, I'm coming!"
"Hurry up!" Xu Feifei looked slightly nervous. Her breath quickened and her small hands clutched onto the blankets. Then Xu Que threw himself onto the bed. The two of them looked into each other's eyes, and Xu Feifei took a deep breath, "Let's start, I'm ready!"
"Okay!" Xu Que nodded.
The long-awaited discussion finally commenced! Ever since they returned from M Nation, Xu Feifei had been waiting for this moment. She wanted to know what had happened to Xu Que during all these years.
"I died from that car accident back then, but I crossed over...." Xu Que began to describe in detail what had happened when he crossed over after the accident, his experiences in the cultivation world, and how he came back to Earth.
After two hours or more, Xu Feifei was utterly astounded by what she had heard. Her face was filled with disbelief. She could never have imagined that Xu Que would have experienced so many twists and dangers in the six years that he was gone. He had almost failed to land on Earth!
"Then are you still going back?" Xu Feifei felt that her mind was still blank. She had not fully digested what Xu Que has said, but made out that Xu Que's future did not lie on Earth. Therefore, she quickly asked the most pressing question in her mind, in fear that he would have to leave soon.
Xu Que smiled. "The reason I came back was to bring you over to the other side. We'll cultivate together, and I will take care of you. I'll make sure that you will never suffer again!"
"I...I can cultivate too?" Xu Feifei was shocked.
Xu Que nodded, "Of course you can!"
Xu Feifei opened her mouth in disbelief. She looked forward to leaving with Xu Que but was also unsettled. The world of cultivation seemed much more dangerous than she had imagined.
"All right, don't overthink it now. I have said so much that I bet you haven't digested the information fully! Rest, and ask me tomorrow if you're unsure about anything." Xu Que rubbed Xu Feifei's head and smiled. It was nearly 2 a.m.
Both he and Jiang Hongyan could survive without sleep, but Xu Feifei couldn't. She was still mortal, and she had been through a lot today. She was exhausted. In the end, Xu Que tucked Xu Feifei into the blanket, and, like taking care of a child, turned off the lights and bid her good night before leaving the room.
The moment when the door closed, Xu Feifei was still lying on the bed with her eyes open and her mind in chaos. However, her heavy, tired eyelids slowly began to close, and she fell into a deep sleep. Her first decent sleep in six years. It was a long, warm, and sweet slumber.
In her dreams, she dreamed about traveling and playing with her brother in the world of cultivation. It was like they had returned to the times when they were children. She can't help but smile
