Chapter 1283: I Can Handle It Alone

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Yi Zhong!” The Divine Farmer Clan guardians rushed up, their faces gray with shock. However, it was too late. Yi Zhong’s chest had been penetrated by Xu Que’s sword, which injected countless Lifeless Qi into Yi Zhong’s body. The Lifeless Qi turned into a burst of horrible strength and started to devour Yi Zhong’s vital energy. For just an instant, Yi Zhong was at death’s door.

As he was drawing his last breath, his guardians arrived. Three guardians surrounded Xu Que. Another guardian took out a pill and inserted it into Yi Zhong’s mouth. At that instant, Yi Zhong was pulled back from death’s door and didn’t die!

Xu Que just stood there, watching everything calmly. He didn’t attempt to stop the guardians from saving Yi Zhong. People from the rest of the large sects, as well as Bai Cailing and the people from the Jade Lake, were totally shocked by what had happened just now. None of them expected that Xu Que would be so shameless that he would try to kill Yi Zhong secretly with his black rod and sword just after promising he would let Yi Zhong go. “How could a Celestial King do such an underhanded thing? Does it mean this Celestial King doesn’t care about his reputation?” Many people became suspicious and started asking themselves questions. They started to stare at Xu Que and doubt his identity.

When Bai Cailing realized what had happened, she thought it was perfectly normal. Because she remembered the time she had spent together with Xu Que in the Refined Moon Palace. Xu Que was just as shameless as his father! As an old saying goes, like father, like son! It seemed Xu Que had gotten his despicable, shameless characteristics from his father!

“Elder Xu, what did you mean by this attack?” One of the Divine Farmer Clan guardians asked as he stared at Xu Que coldly. This guardian was quivering with anger. However, he was also suppressing his anger for he didn’t dare to have a fight with Xu Que. Even though he was a guardian who had reached the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage, he was still intimidated by Xu Que’s identity. He worried that maybe Xu Que was really a Celestial King who had played those dirty tricks in front of them deliberately to arouse their suspicions. In this way, when they were forced to attack him, he would have proper excuses to kill all of them and even vent his anger on the entire Divine Farmer Clan!

No matter whether his speculation was correct or not, he didn’t want to take the risk of finding out. Of course, the most important point was that Yi Zhong was not killed. His life was saved by the Divine Farmer Clan’s most precious Nine-Reincarnation Spirit Protection Pill. Also, the Divine Farmer Clan could restore Yi Zhong’s health without any difficulty!

“What did I mean?” Xu Que smiled as he looked at the guardian at this moment. “Didn’t you know what was I going to do?” BOOM! The next moment, a dark shadow appeared behind Yi Zhong and slashed a sharp sword down toward Yi Zhong’s head!

“Oh, no! This is a replica! Retreat!” The guardians’ expressions changed abruptly. The guardian who had inserted the pill into Yi Zhong’s mouth just now grabbed Yi Zhong and stepped back immediately. However, that dark shadow was even faster. It was impossible for the guardian to dodge this attack no matter how fast his reaction was!

CHI! The dark shadow’s sharp sword punctured Yi Zhong’s throat! This attack was not lethal, and the wound created by it could have been healed. However, Yi Zhong was dragged back by his guardian. Because of this movement, his neck was run across the edge of the sword. In this way, he was beheaded on the spot. BANG! His head fell to the ground!

A young sovereign of the Divine Farmer Clan died in such a miserable way! All the people were shocked and couldn’t believe what they had seen. The guardians of the Divine Farmer Clan felt everything in front of them go black as if they had been struck by lightning. They looked so helpless. The next moment, every single person who was in the area fixed their eyes on Xu Que. The atmosphere in this place became quite weird!

No one expected that the issue would be resolved in this way. They had thought that this old man would stop attacking Yi Zhong. They didn’t expect that he would be so persistent and approach Yi Zhong silently with a replica. They didn’t expect that he would attack Yi Zhong, who was beheaded accidentally at last! The entire place was shocked. After all, a cultivator whose Cultivation Stage was higher than a Celestial King would never do something like that! What Xu Que did was so horrible. They all asked themselves the question, “Why did he hate Yi Zhong so much that he was determined to kill him?”

No one could figure out the answer. However, the fact that Xu Que had managed to kill Yi Zhong in front of his guardians without revealing his actual Cultivation Stage reassured people that his Cultivation Stage was definitely higher than the Half-Celestial Stage! Since he was not a cultivator at the Half-Celestial Stage, and even cultivators at the Golden Celestial Stage couldn’t discover his actual Cultivation Stage, people were more convinced than ever that his Cultivation Stage had reached either the Celestial King or an even higher stage!

If he was a proud powerhouse who cared about his reputation and didn’t want to use despicable measures, people wouldn’t be afraid of him, because he disdained to attack someone who hadn’t offended him before! But now, the one standing in front of them, who was so powerful that his Cultivation Stage could be even higher than the Celestial King, would use those despicable measures shamelessly! What a horrible guy!

“Now, you know my plan, right? I just wanted to kill him, and that’s that!” Xu Que explained as he looked at the guardians of the Divine Farmer Clan with a faint smile at this time. Meanwhile, he had placed a Celestial Grade Divine Escape Spell in his hand. If those guardians who were totally annoyed attacked him, he would still have the chance to run away! As for a counterattack, it had become pretty much impossible for Xu Que at this moment!

He was not able to defeat so many cultivators at the Golden Celestial Stage even when he was in a peak state. Moreover, his attack upon Yi Zhong just now was not as easy as it had seemed. When Xu Que attacked with his black rod and pierced Yi Zhong’s chest with his sword, he used his full strength! That sword attack, which looked quite simple, was full of extremely magnificent Celestial Core Power, Soul Strength, and his Taoist Connotation. Also, the attack was strengthened by the strength of the Sword Spirit as well as magnificent Lifeless Qi from the Ancient Life and Death Wheel. In this way, Xu Que’s attack was powerful enough to seriously wound or even kill a sovereign at the Heaven Celestial Stage. Otherwise, it would have been totally impossible for Xu Que, who was at the summit of the Human Celestial Stage, to kill a cultivator at the Heaven Celestial Stage!

However, when he managed to attack Yi Zhong secretly with his full strength, he didn’t expect that the Divine Farmer Clan, which was so resourceful, could save Yi Zhong’s life with a Nine-Reincarnation Spirit Protection Pill. This result was unacceptable for Xu Que! Nobody could stop him from killing his target! Therefore, Xu Que sent his Thunder Illusion Body to kill Yi Zhong remotely. The sword attack of his Thunder Illusion Body also caused a large consumption of his energy, although not as much as the previous attack. When the Thunder Illusion Body pierced Yi Zhong’s throat with the sword, Xu Que believed the attack was not powerful enough to kill Yi Zhong! However, he didn’t expect Yi Zhong’s guardian would step back, dragging Yi Zhong’s body. This movement caused the beheading of Yi Zhong, bringing him a miserable death.

Xu Que was quite satisfied with the result. Since Yi Zhong was dead, he didn’t want to keep a low profile anymore. So, he decided to confront Yi Zhong’s guardians directly. “This was my plan! What are you going to do?” He continued talking only to himself, “Do you want to seek revenge against me? I will run away after acting tough with the help of the Celestial Grade Divine Escape Spell! How can you capture me?”

However, to his surprise, the guardians looked angry, but they didn’t attack him! Xu Que held the Celestial Grade Divine Escape Spell tightly in his hand so he could ignite it at any minute! In this way, they fell into a stalemate, while the rest of the sovereigns, including Bai Cailing, were speechless.

A moment later, a guardian of the Divine Farmer Clan said in a low voice, “Elder Xu, did the Divine Farmer Clan offend you sometime in the past? Why did you make up your mind to kill the sovereign of our clan with those measures?”

“Heh! Do you want to know the reason? It is quite simple!” Xu Que snorted and said, enumerating on his fingers: “First, you shouldn’t have offended the people from the Utopia Faction! Second, you tried to kill me in the Jade Lake. Third, I don’t like you! Fourth, you are too ugly for me! Fifth, sixth, seventh...I can even give you 100 reasons! Do you want to hear all of them?”

The guardians of the Divine Farmer Clan could do nothing but look angrier and angrier. The first two reasons were true. In order to track Buttface and Duan Jiude, they had kidnapped people of the Utopia Faction and killed most of them. At last, only Liu Jingning had survived and was rescued by Buttface and Duan Jiude. Now, they realized that this old man had a good relationship with the people of the Utopia Faction and wanted to avenge them. And second, when they were in the Jade Lake, they had tried to kill Xu Que. However, when they heard the news that Buttface and Duan Jiude had shown up, they changed their plans and left to find them immediately. As for the third and fourth reasons, they really didn’t know what to say. Is it wrong to be ugly?

“OK! Since Elder Xu has told us the reasons, we will leave here now!” A guardian of the Divine Farmer Clan said seriously at this time. It seemed they had made up their minds to leave here. Their reactions totally surprised Xu Que. “Why are they leaving here with ease? Does it mean they won’t avenge Yi Zhong?” These questions were running through Xu Que’s mind.

In fact, the guardians of the Divine Farmer Clan had already come to an agreement. Yi Zhong was not the only sovereign of the Divine Farmer Clan. Now, he was dead, and his death was an irreversible fact. It was unnecessary for the guardians to avenge a dead sovereign before they could figure out the real identity of Xu Que. If this old man’s Cultivation Stage was really higher than a Celestial King, they would not only lose a sovereign, they could even lose the entire Divine Farmer Clan, which was totally unnecessary.

Of course, this was just a temporary choice. When they went back to their clan, they would have plenty of time to check out Xu Que’s identity. If they found this old man was not a Celestial King, the Divine Farmer Clan would have sufficient strength and could seek measures to get revenge against him. The guardians had thought long and hard about their situation. They weren’t going to act recklessly, but had decided to act wisely. So, they left the altar together with the dead body of Yi Zhong and headed for the path which they used to come here.

.....

Standing behind them, Xu Que frowned for he didn’t understand what had happened and even guessed that maybe those guardians didn’t like Yi Zhong at all. So they didn’t want to avenge him when he was killed. However, the rest of the people in this area, who had decided that Xu Que was a Celestial King or someone even more powerful, just looked at him without saying a word.

After a short hesitation, the sovereign from the Fangcun Celestial Sect walked up and said as he took out his soul fragment, “Elder Xu, the Fangcun Celestial Sect has decided to leave here. Since you are going to move forward, I will leave this soul fragment to you!” After that, the sovereign of the Myriad Law Sect from the Pojun Celestial Realm also gave his soul fragment to Xu Que without asking for anything in return. After mentioning the name of their sect in front of Xu Que, they left together with the people of the Fangcun Celestial Sect.

The entire process was very quiet and harmonious. No more conflicts occurred. Xu Que was shocked once again. It seemed as if people on the Heaven Continent were quite friendly. “Look at people from the Fangcun Celestial Sect and the Myriad Law Sect! How nice they are! They even gave their soul fragments to me!”

However, everyone else in this area knew the Fangcun Celestial Sect and the Myriad Law Sect had made wise choices. After all, they had decided to leave here. Before that, they could rival Ji Wuyun and the other two sects only with the reinforcements from the Divine Farmer Clan. They had tried to decide the attribution of the soul fragments through a fight. Now, the Divine Farmer Clan had been driven away by Xu Que, which meant the sovereigns of the Fangcun Celestial Sect and the Myriad Law Sect would definitely lose in any fight because they were outnumbered! Of course, even if they could win the fight, it was still impossible for them to take away the soul fragments. After all, a powerhouse whose Cultivation Stage might even be higher than a Celestial King was still here!

So, the Fangcun Celestial Sect and the Myriad Law Sect chose to give in wisely. They also mentioned the name of their sects in front of Xu Que deliberately. In case Xu Que was really a Celestial King, they would leave a good impression on a powerful big shot! If Xu Que was not a Celestial King, they would lose nothing because it was impossible for them to take away the soul fragments anyway! Therefore, this choice would only do good to them!

“Since we have obtained all the soul fragments, let’s break the restrictive spell on this altar now!” Xu Que said as he gave the three soul fragments to Ji Wuyun. He didn’t want to waste his time here because he planned to find Buttface and Duan Jiude. Most importantly, he wanted to see Liu Jingning. The Utopia Faction had been treated badly by the Divine Farmer Clan. Moreover, their Faction Leader and the Elders who came here together with Liu Jingning had been killed today. So Xu Que was worried about Liu Jingning very much!

“Okay, guys, please give your soul fragments to me!” At this time, Ji Wuyun said, nodding his head as he looked at the sovereigns of the other two sects. Those two young men nodded their heads as they handed over their soul fragments to Ji Wuyun. When they put the seven soul fragments together, Ji Wuyun started to press them with his Celestial Core Power. The fragments were merged slowly and formed a faint figure, which landed at the center of the altar.

BOOM!

The entire altar trembled. The strength of the restrictive spell, which was reduced remarkably, was much weaker than before. Apparently, the appearance of the Deity’s remnant soul posed a threat to the altar, which used most of its restrictive spell’s strength to counter the remnant soul. The remnant soul was suppressing the altar and vice versa!

“Great! If we attack together, we can break the restrictive spell on this altar temporarily. Then we can move to the other side!” Ji Wuyun said delightedly. Although the restrictive spell had been weakened, it was still quite powerful. It could only be broken by the combined attack of everyone in this area. Then they could move to the other side. At that time, it was highly possible for them to find more inheritances there. Therefore, it was a precious and rare opportunity for them!

“This is too troublesome! I can handle it alone!” Suddenly, Xu Que said calmly as he waved his hand. “Can he handle it alone?” People in this area were about to attack together. However, when they heard Xu Que’s words, they were shocked and fixed their eyes on him in surprise, as they asked themselves this question.

Xu Que walked out from the crowd calmly. He walked to the wall of the restrictive spell at the edge of the altar. After that, he lifted his right leg in front of those surprised people. Then he kicked out as his leg was wrapped by a strand of dazzling golden light!

RUMBLE!

The entire altar started to tremble violently, which created a big bang! People were totally dumbfounded for Xu Que had created a big hole in that barrier of the weakened restrictive spell. Everyone was stunned. They looked at Xu Que’s leg in surprise. Xu Que ignored their reaction. Placing his hands behind his back, he walked forward as he threw out his chest proudly.

“My God! What...is this magic art? It is so powerful!” At this time, a little voice of a woman could be heard from behind him. Apparently, a female apprentice of the Jade Lake was speaking. Xu Que didn’t stop and turn around. He continued to walked forward as he replied with a smile, “The Act-Tough King’s Leg!”
