690 This Is Cheating! (2/2)
”…” Liu Jingning was stunned on the spot.
After a while, she stomped her feet and snorted, ”What a brazen bastard! You are so shameless!”
…
Finally, they stepped toward the entrance of the Mystery Land. Liu Jingning didn't mention Xu Que's intimate friends anymore for she got more and more worried as they walked up to the entrance.
After all, they had heard some news on their way from some passers-by.
The Patriarchs of the families and sects woke up one year ago. The world was not quiet anymore.
Moreover, a Patriarch of the Heavenly Horn Ox Tribe was waiting outside the entrance for Xu Que.
”Little Queque, are you sure you can escape safely?” Liu Jingning couldn't help but ask the question that worried her the most as they approached the entrance.
Xu Que shook his head and said with a smile, ”I remember I said I could be safe, but I didn't say I will escape! Let's go, little sister. Do you think that Patriarch of the Heavenly Horn Ox Tribe could defend himself from one punch from me?”
Liu Jingning was stunned. Then she remembered Xu Que smashed hundreds of golden swords with one punch when he crossed his Heavenly Tribulations, which relieved most of her worries.
But it didn't mean Xu Que could really defeat a Patriarch. Anyway, in front of a cultivator at the Form Synthesis Stage, no matter how powerful Xu Que was, he could ensure his survival at most.
”OK! Just don't do anything reckless. Once the situation becomes unfavorable, you should escape with your spell!” Liu Jingning reminded him seriously.
”Hmm…” Xu Que replied ambiguously with a weird smile on his face.
When his Taoist Connotation hadn't taken shape, he didn't dare to upgrade through killing people for fear that he would destroy his Taoist Connotation.
Now his Taoist Connotation had taken shape. Together with his powerful magic arts, he had become fearless.
Moreover, he had just crossed his 69 Heavenly Tribulations. Now he needed upgrades urgently. According to his style, the appearance of a Patriarch was just something Xu Que wanted to accumulate experience points.
For Xu Que, the Patriarch at the Form Synthesis Stage was nothing.
If he couldn't defeat the Patriarch with a punch that cost 1,000 Acting-Tough Points, he would use the punch that cost 2,000 Acting-Tough Points! If he still couldn't defeat the Patriarch, he could still use the punches that cost 3,000, 4,000, or 5,000 Acting-Tough Points!
This King of Tough-Acting Fist was just a cheating art!
Boom!
One day later, a dull sound came from the barrier at the entrance to the Mystery Land.
Two figures dashed out. One was a handsome man and the other was a beautiful woman!
People outside the entrance fixed their eyes on those two people, and their expressions changed immediately.
”Xu Que!”
”He really came out!”
”Wait! Oh, no, how could he reach the Void Training Stage?”
”It seems the hearsay is true. He didn't destruct his cultivation. Two years ago, he was at the Infant Transformation Stage. He finished his secluded cultivation in the Mystery Land in the last two years! What a cunning guy!”
”I've heard he didn't have the Taoist Connotation before. Now he has reached the Void Training Stage, which means he has found an opportunity in the Mystery Land apparently!”
”Heh-heh! What a pity! The Patriarch of the Heavenly Horn Ox Tribe is waiting for him!”
After being surprised, the onlookers started to take pleasure in Xu Que's misfortune.
For them, no matter what kind of opportunity Xu Que had found, he was nothing but a dead person now.
Boom!
Just at this moment, a dull sound came from the summit of the mountain. It seemed the void was being shaken by someone. Then, a magnificent pressure swept over everything!
This momentum suffocated a lot of cultivators in this area, whose foreheads were covered by cold sweat.
The strength of a Patriarch at the Form Synthesis Stage was incredibly powerful!
Liu Jingning clenched her teeth and was about to remind Xu Que to escape by sending him a message.
Then, suddenly, a deafening voice came from the summit of the mountain.
”You are Xu Que, right? Good! Now come over here and kowtow to me in three breaths!” the Patriarch at the Form Synthesis Stage said with indisputable arrogance and determination.
Even though they knew they were not the target of the Patriarch, the onlookers still turned pale immediately.
However, Xu Que replied with a faint smile as he stood there calmly, ”It's nice! I've just finished my secluded cultivation. Now, someone is trying to get in a beef with me. Tell me, what kind of punch do you want?”
