The Zhu Family was nothing!
The Roc Tribe was nothing!
After saying that, Xu Que eliminated the Zhu Family's fleet neatly. His resolute and ruthless killing astounded everyone.
Xu
Que was just an ordinary person. The other people were cultivators,
most of whom were at the Void Training Stage and enjoyed the
extraordinary positions. They were shocked by Xu Que's behavior. If they
became enemies of the Zhu Family, they had to consider the Roc Tribe
behind the Zhu Family. They wouldn't make a big fuss as long as the
issue wasn't very serious.
However, as an ordinary person, Xu
Que's behavior could be overbearing. All of them were detained by this
young man and waiting for their liquidation because they partic.i.p.ated in
the attack.
The Zhu Family didn't want to be humiliated by an
ordinary person, so they had tried to scare Xu Que away. However, what
they got was the same fate as the Heaven Horn Ox Tribe and the
Prevailing Wind Pavilion.
The cultivators were terrified. Except
for Duan Jiude, they hadn't seen such a ruthless person in many years!
Still more ominous, this young man was crueler than Duan Jiude. Anyone
who went against his will would be killed. Only the Celestial Emperor
could do that!
…
The atmosphere in the area was a little creepy. Except for those who were gasping, n.o.body dared to speak casually.
The
System's warning tone kept echoing in Xu Que's mind. He earned more
than 4,000 Acting Tough Points by destroying the Zhu Family's s.h.i.+p,
putting him up to about 60,000 Acting Tough Points total. It was a big
number, and Xu Que received it with his mind at ease.
Actually, he
wouldn't kill anyone who went against his will as those cultivators
thought. The Taoist Connotation he cultivated would do anything at will!
Those who did not offend would not be offended. Those who offended would be killed!
The
Zhu Family had partic.i.p.ated in the attack on Xu Que. He just planned to
punish them by robbing their Spirit Stones before putting everything
behind them. However, the Zhu Family had tried to threaten Xu Que with
the Roc Tribe, which annoyed him.
Xu Que was not intimidated
easily. To threaten him with the Roc Tribe was even less effective than
asking several holy virgins to commend his handsomeness, which might
make him happy enough to let everyone go.
However, the Zhu Family
was used to bullying others. They had threatened Xu Que with the Roc
Tribe, so Xu Que had to kill them all. It was a dog-eat-dog world. One
who chose to make concession after being threatened would be bullied and
threatened forever. Xu Que knew this rule well. Therefore, he was as
tough and ruthless as he was in the Five Elements Mountain.
b.u.t.tface
was beside Xu Que and said with a smirk, "Little brat, you are really
reckless. Now, you have offended all four continents like I did!"
Liu
Jingning stared at b.u.t.tface speechlessly. She turned to Xu Que
worriedly and said, "You punish them in such a ruthless way. What if
they come to seek revenge after leaving the Mystery Land?"
Xu Que turned to Liu Jingning and replied with a smile. "I'll kill anyone who comes to seek revenge!"
His
words stunned Liu Jingning, who said nothing after that. It was quite
unrealistic to say he would kill anyone who came to seek revenge.
However, she got a vague feeling that Xu Que could really do that.
Duan
Jiude's voice came in, saying, "Young man, what I want to say is that
after leaving this Mystery Land, I can't prevent so many people from
attacking you." The old man was sending the message with a serious
facial expression while squatting on the bow of a s.h.i.+p. "Before long,
the shackle that locked the four continents will be opened. A great
change will happen. My master instructed me to keep a low profile. I
can't offend the families and sects in this world; otherwise, I will
suffer great loss in the future!"
Xu Que was stunned. Furrowing his eyebrows, he asked, "What do you mean? What is the shackle for the four continents?"
Duan
Jiude replied with a shrug. "It is a long story, so I won't tell it.
Anyway, I suggest you'd better keep a low profile, and avoid becoming
the enemy of this world. The golden age is about to begin. However,
before the commencement of a golden age, there is always a chaotic
period!"
"Heh heh, old beggar, have you heard a saying?" Xu Que smiled.
"What?" Duan Jiude was stunned.
Xu
Que said with a faint smile, "Heroes emerge in troubled times, but the
golden age is full of mediocre officials! Since the chaotic period is
upcoming, I should work harder; otherwise, I won't be able to conquest
the golden age!"
He didn't care about the chaotic period or the
golden age. He just wanted to get a firm foothold in this world to
continue his acting tough business. Then, he would take Sun Yunlan,
Madam Ya, Su Ling'er, and Su Xiaoqi to this continent, which was full of
magnificent Spiritual Qi, to continue their cultivation!
"Heroes
emerge in troubled times?" Duan Jiude was absent-minded because of Xu
Que's words. He then smiled and shook his head. "Young man, you are too
ambitious, and your thought is too simple. Once the chaotic period
starts, even I have to hide. The battlefield at that time belongs to
experts like my master!"
Xu Que was shocked. Could there be more than one formidable powerhouse like the beautiful Taoist Nun?
After
thinking it over, Xu Que felt it was quite normal that extremely
powerful experts were hiding in this time-honored World of Cultivators.
He didn't want to waste time thinking about what the world would be like
in the future. If he was not powerful enough, he could perform s.e.xual
favors for Duan Jiude's beautiful master to get protection. After all,
flirtation was a kind of skill, and survival with one's appearance was a
kind of honor! At the thought of this, Xu Que touched his face and
smiled, satisfied.
At that moment, the cultivators, who fixed their eyes on Xu Que, saw his smile. Oh, no! Is he going to kill someone again?
The
holy virgin of the Yun Family quickly threw more than ten storage rings
to Xu Que. "My fellow cultivator Xu, these are all Spirit Stones and
magical artifacts of the Yun Family!"
At first, she had thought Xu
Que was just an inexperienced, reckless young man. She had planned to
lure him to the North Sea with her charm, so they could forcibly take
away his yacht. Now, however, Xu Que was a devil lord to her. She deemed
him as a person with the same status as hers. She didn't dare
underestimate him anymore. Among her peers, she hadn't seen anyone as
ruthless.
The Yun Family's action startled the rest of the
cultivators, especially those who came from some small sects. They
started to urge their sect members to surrender their storage rings.
After all, the Yun Family had given in. The small families and sects
didn't dare continue their objection.
"My fellow cultivator Xu, these are the storage rings of our Foggy Stream Sect!"
"These are the storage rings of our Drifting Cloud Sect!"
"These are the storage rings of the Lin Family!"
…
All
families and sects, big or small, had given in and surrendered all
their Spirit Stones and magical artifacts. Even the Jiang Family and the
Gong Family surrendered their belongings with darkened faces.
Jiang
Yushu and powerhouses of the Gong Family had gotten used to being
extorted by Xu Que like this. Every time they met him, from the
Stone-Cutting Convention to the Celestial Burial Valley, they would
always suffer financial loss!
An elder of the Jiang Family
couldn't help but curse as he sent messages to other members of the
family. "d.a.m.n! I guess this guy has stayed too long with Jiang Hongyan.
He got evilness from her, which caused great loss to us!"
Jiang
Yushu's facial expression changed drastically. Finally, he clenched his
teeth and said, "Let's just treat it as losing money to avoid
misfortune. We should stop seeking revenge upon him in the future;
otherwise, the Jiang Family couldn't afford the loss!"
A young man
of the Jiang Family asked ruefully, "Grand Elder, how does this go? As
one of the overlords in the East Continent, is the mighty Jiang Family
going to stay out of his way in the future?"
Jiang Yushu replied angrily, "Yes! From now on, we should all stay out of his way and not provoke him!"
Everyone on the s.h.i.+p of the Jiang Family was shocked.
Jiang
Yushu said coldly, "At least we should avoid provoking that little
b.a.s.t.a.r.d before the connotation of our Jiang Family decides to reappear
in this world!"
All members of the Jiang Family replied in unison. "As you wish."
…
Finally,
after all the families and sects surrendered their belongings, the
atmosphere became tense again. n.o.body knew whether Xu Que would kill
them all after robbing their Spirit Stones.
Some of them were
shocked that an ordinary person could decide the life or death of the
majestic powerhouses outside the Mystery Land. It was so sad, annoying
and helpless!
Seeing their facial expressions, Xu Que also knew in
his heart that this was the effect of extremely powerful strength. As
long as you were powerful enough, n.o.body dared to bully you. He had
realized this effect previously with the submarines, the aircraft
carriers, and the Upflowing Sea.
Once they left that area, his
intimidation would disappear immediately. However, he firmly believed he
would regain this power, which could decide others' fate, when he had
extraordinary strength again one day!
At the thought of this, Xu
Que smiled and said, "Thanks for your cooperation! You know credibility
is the most important fact for the Exploding Heavens Faction to do
business in this world. Also, we always use the traditional and formal
way of robbery! As for performing indecent a.s.sault on women after
robbing their properties…"
Before he finished his words, the cultivators totally freaked out and almost spat blood.
d.a.m.n! Are you going to rape our women after robbing us?
