639 I Have to Call for Reinforcements (1/2)
That day, Xu Que's words were disseminated. He felt guilty because he killed too many people, so he destroyed his cultivation and wouldn't get involved in anything occurring in the World of Cultivators. What he wanted was only to become an ordinary person.
After receiving this news, all the big families and sects sneered.
Did he destroy his cultivation because he felt guilty for killing so many people?
That guy would be the last one who could feel guilty in this world!
Apparently, he planned to cultivate his Taoist Connotation after destroying his cultivation achievements!
The Jiang Family announced publicly that day, ”Self-destruction of cultivation is not enough. The Jiang Family could spare his life if he returns the Spirit Stones and apologizes for his offense by kowtowing to the Jiang Family.”
The Gong Family and the Bai Family made similar announcements, saying Xu Que should return the Spirit Stones and apologize for his offense.
However, the Carefree Building's attitude was quite firm: Xu Que would be killed!
…
Although most people had left for the South Continent for the Mystery Land Trial, Xu Que's appearance still brought the East Continent into an uproar. He had declared he wanted to be an ordinary person, but countless people still planned to kill him to obtain his Spirit Stones!
Several days later, someone received news that Xu Que appeared on a mountain path. Numerous people, mostly from the big families and sects, immediately swarmed there, including some powerhouses at the Infant Transformation Stage. However, none of them returned after entering the mountain. Their sudden disappearance made the situation quite creepy!
The next day, Xu Que appeared in an ancient city and announced reverently, ”My fellow cultivators, please stop bothering me. I am just an ordinary person!”
Buttface also emphasized, ”I could guarantee with my noble wolfality that he has reformed himself thoroughly. Please, just let him go!”
…
Meanwhile, in a branch encampment of the Jiang Family, several powerhouses at the Infant Transformation Stage frowned after receiving the news. ”It seems the news is wrong; he has left the mountain. Call back those who had been sent to kill him before. This time, let's kill him personally!”
The situation in the Gong Family was similar to that of the Bai Family. Several powerhouses sneered, ”He can stop his fantastic dream of being an ordinary person! Now, he is just like a useless ant; he can only live in panic in the East Continent, and nobody can harbor him!”
Almost all geniuses at the Void Training Stage of the Carefree Building had left for the South Continent. Now, only some sovereigns at the Infant Transformation Stage were left. After knowing Xu Que's whereabouts, they also set off to kill him.
”No one who is targeted by the Carefree Building can survive,” they announced, showing their determination of giving Xu Que his certain death.
The cultivators of the East Continent paid attention to the plans of the big families and sects and wanted to know what would finally happen to Xu Que.
Three days had passed. All cultivators who tried to kill Xu Que disappeared, one after another.
Xu Que, however, the so-called ordinary person, frequently appeared in some ancient cities. His sincere announcement would always be, ”My fellow cultivators, I really like my life as an ordinary person. I hope you can stop bothering me, please!”
…
One month later, people realized something was wrong. A lot of cultivators from the big families and sects disappeared. However, Xu Que kept showing up frequently and always declared his identity as an ordinary person. It was so creepy!
One day, Xu Que arrived at an ancient city. He prepared to have something to eat and take a rest.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, dozens of figures dashed over and landed on the ground, surrounding him. There were more than 20 powerhouses at the Infant Transformation Stage, and their momentum was quite terrifying.
A lot of disbanded cultivators who passed by the ancient city were startled by this sudden event, so they quickly became onlookers.
”Holy crap! It's him! After hanging around for over a month, he was finally found by those big families and sects,” someone said, feeling sympathy for Xu Que.
”He is stupid. Since he had decided to be an ordinary person, he could just quietly live in a remote village!”
”You are stupid! This area has long been abandoned. If the Ancient Bronze Hall didn't show up, we wouldn't have come to this place. How could he survive here as an ordinary person?”
”Right! However, he is still quite foolish. Before his self-destruction of cultivation, he didn't go to the center of the East Continent. I'm afraid he can't leave this area in his life as an ordinary person, let alone go to the center of the East Continent!”
Shaking his head and smiling sarcastically, someone else said, ”Heh heh, you over-thought it. Now, he has been surrounded by so many seniors at the Infant Transformation Stage. His life will end here!”
While the onlookers were chatting, the dozens of powerhouses surrounding Xu Que were still staring at him with cold smiles on their faces. He felt horrible pressure. Dozens of powerhouses at the Infant Transformation Stage were really horrible! Some disbanded cultivators couldn't watch it anymore and started to exclaim.
They knew clearly that Xu Que used to be an extremely powerful cultivator before his self-destruction of cultivation. He killed thousands of cultivators alone and seriously wounded more than 200 powerhouses at the Void Training Stage. Therefore, he should be the most powerful sovereign in the East Continent since the beginning of its history! It was a pity to see him surrounded by dozens of mediocre cultivators at the Infant Transformation Stage and the Original Infant Stage.
