944 Look Into My Eyes! (2/2)
”....” Xu Que frowned as he listened. He had wanted to gather some information from the snake, but that fellow was unexpectedly ignorant about what had happened. However, there was still one part that caught Xu Que's attention.
The Master of Kunlun opened a gate toward the Road of Heavenly Attainment. In other words….
”Could the Void Interface Point be found in Kunlun Mountain” Xu Que's eyes lit up as he looked around. The white-clad woman lying on the floor's eyes snapped open. Surprised, she examined the Taoist Connotation that bound her before raising her head to glare at Xu Que angry and horrified, ”Bastard! You attacked me from behind!”
” Don't call me that so quickly.” Xu Que teased.
Deep down, however, he was very shocked. This black rod of his came straight from the System inventory. Even Buttface went out cold for days when he got hit, but this woman woke up so quickly after suffering a blow. Most important, she's just a Shadow Replica! How powerful would the real her be?
”Who are you exactly?” The white-clad woman and pressed Xu Que for an answer. Her expression was icy, and it was evident that she was furious.
Xu Que continued to scan his surroundings while smiling mildly at that woman, ”Who am I? I'm afraid that you're not yet qualified to know! The only thing I can disclose is that the moment I was born, I could stand right away. I pointed one finger at the sky and another finger at the ground, shouting 'I alone am honored in heaven and on earth!' As for the rest, feel free to make a guess.”
The white-clad woman was stunned at Xu Que''s words.He could stand up straight the moment he was born, pointing one finger at the sky and another finger at the ground while shouting 'I alone am honored in heaven and on earth'?
Was he the reincarnation of some Supreme Existence?
”The Revered Immortal is awesome!” Screamed the snake all of a sudden.
What the hell?
Xu Que jumped in surprise and glared at the snake, ”What the heck was that? Weren't you imprisoned for tens of thousands of years? Where did you learn the word awesome?”
The eight-headed snake smiled shyly, ”A group of mortals once traveled to somewhere nearby. When one of them, a good-looking guy, reached the mountain peak, the group behind him began to yell that 'The Lord of Commoners is awesome!' So I reckoned that 'awesome' must be some sort of praise!”
”You're quite clever, aren't you? Better than Buttface!” Xu Que's eyes lit up and he made a thoughtful smile. Then he turned to the white-clad woman and shook his head, ”The Master of Kunlun, eh? From now on, we, the Exploding Heavens Faction, will take over as owners of this area! I'll give you three breaths worth of time. Return my friends immediately or else I'll strip you naked and throw you out!”
”You're throwing me out?” The white-clad woman ignored Xu Que's threat to strip her. Instead, she thought that his last sentence was ridiculous. She shook her head, sarcastically, ”This place was born out of my illusory spell. I am the spell, and the spell is I. How could you possibly throw me out? Let me put it this way. If you can bring me out of the formation, I would gladly let you strip me naked.”
”Yo-ho? It seems like you genuinely believe that I won't be able to break your spell?” Xu Que asked amusedly.
While the illusory spell is potent and the System could not help him due to level restrictions, he has a lot of ways to break the spell.
”You...you have a way?” asked the surprised woman, who then quickly shook her head. ”Impossible. This spell formation was laid down by my true body. No one except for the Master of Kunlun could break this spell. Why don't you answer my question instead? If you promise to answer earnestly, I would consider releasing your friends.”
Xu Que smirked. ”What do you want to know?”
”Who are you, and where are you from? Answer me, truthfully, or I will never open the illusory spell.”
”So what if I tell you the truth? One true name I'd never change, behold the Exploding Heavens Faction's Sun Honglei! Pretty Sun is my nickname, though all prefer to call me Hunk Leilei!” Xu Que sneered, then suddenly shot his gaze at the white-clad woman. He bellowed, ”Look into my eyes!”
The moment Xu Que's voice fell, strands of golden flame emerged from his eyes and engulfed his eyeballs, overflowing with energy.
The white-clad woman felt like someone had suddenly gripped her soul; a loud thud could be felt in her mind, and she stood rooted to the ground, unable to tear her gaze away from the golden flames in Xu Que's eyes. In that instant, it was as if someone had thrown her into an all-engulfing sea of fire!
