703 You Are Xu Que? (2/2)
”Anyway, this is just a rumor. We should not buy it!”
”If even this sort of ridiculous rumor can spread, what's wrong with the people here in the Cultivation World?”
”Obviously, this is all Xu Que and his Exploding Heavens Faction's doing. The reason is to get us all scared of him, simple as that!”
Some cultivators were even mocking Xu Que.
Soon, the news that Xu Que and Liu Jingning were going to get married also spread out.
”My goodness! It is said that Xu Que has given some betrothal presents to the Utopia Faction and is going to marry Liu Jingning.”
”Has the entire Utopia Faction gone mad? Xu Que has got countless enemies in this world, and the Utopia Faction chooses to make connections with him at this critical moment?”
”Wait for a moment, can this rumor really be true? The Utopia Faction would never accept Xu Que's request of marrying Liu Jingning.”
”This is really peculiar. You know what, someone said that they saw Xu Que and Liu Jingning heading together to the North Sea. Even cultivators from Influential Factions do not dare to attack them and choose other routes to dodge them.”
”My god! This is really crazy!”
…
While the cultivators were discussing all these issues, Xu Que and Liu Jingning arrived at the North Sea at last. The two walked out of the Teleportation Device and found a freezing world in front of them.
The reason why the North Sea was called a North Sea, obviously, was that it was indeed a sea, part of the Infinite Sea. Due to the changing rules of this world, it snowed here all year round, and the entire sea was frozen. It covered a huge area, as huge as the other three continents added together.
There were numerous powerful Factions living here, and the most powerful one was the aboriginal tribe that lived here, the Roc Tribe. The Roc Tribe was one of the few tribes that had still managed to keep their bloodlines pure, and they enjoyed the same reputation as the Nine Tailed Demon Fox Tribe in the South Continent.
The Roc Tribe were the tyrants of the North Sea, and there were many extremely powerful cultivators in the tribe; in particular, it possessed the most cultivators of the Form Synthesis Stage.
Even the Jiang Family and the Gong Family in the East Continent did not dare offend the Roc Tribe. In fact, the place where Xu Que and Liu Jingning descended now was under the control of the Roc Tribe. As soon as the two walked out of the Teleportation Device, four rays of light flashed toward them.
As they got closer, Xu Que saw that there were three men and a woman with wings on their backs. Every time they moved their wings, they could move at least a few hundred miles. Obviously, the four cultivators were from the Demonic Beast Clan. ”You two! Who are you and where do you come from?”
After all, the Teleportation Device here was a big one, and only cultivators from the other three Continents could use it. Recently, many Patriarchs had come to the North Sea via Teleportation Devices dotted in the North Sea. Due to this, many cultivators of other Continents came here, and this had turned this region a bit unsteady. So all the Teleportation Devices were currently being monitored .
Xu Que only wanted to find out where Dong Genji was and did not want to get into any trouble, so he answered politely, ”My name is Xu Que. I simply pass here. I mean no harm at all.”
”Xu Que?”
Hearing this, the four cultivators got extremely furious and shouted, ”You are the one who insulted our Roc Tribe. I never thought you would have the balls to come here! We want to kill you!”
All of a sudden, the four cultivators dashed toward Xu Que.
”What's going on? I don't think we have even met before!” Xu Que was shocked.
Liu Jingning was also stunned and looked at Xu Que with surprise, wondering what Xu Que had done to upset the Roc Tribe.
”Don't play the fool with me!” The woman shouted and was about to hit Xu Que.
Xu Que moved to the right a little bit and easily dodged her. Then he frowned. ”This is the first time I have ever come to the North Sea. I don't think I have ever done anything to offend the Roc Tribe. If you don't stop now, I will make you suffer!”
”How dare you deny it? Look at what this is!”
The woman sneered and threw a piece of paper at Xu Que.
Xu Que frowned and caught the paper.
”There is a fish in the North Sea, and it is called the Roc. It is so huge that it can not fit in a pot of average size. It can change into a bird, which can be also called a Roc, which is so enormous that it needs two barbecue grills to grill properly. I would cut it into two halves and sprinkle plenty of sugar on one and a bit of pepper on the other! After enjoying this delicious Roc, I would take off for adventure. (by Xu Que)”
”Screw you! Duan Jiude!” Xu Que cursed after reading it.
