1503 Going to the Ceremony (1/2)
At this moment, Xu Que was speechless. His forehead was creased by a frown. His facial expression was serious and a little angry.
He had known for a long time that the One Chosen by Heaven had to go through the tribulation of love. He had also known that if he and his partner who had also been chosen couldn't pass the tribulation, then they both would die.
But he had just now found out for the first time that if others Chosen by Heaven passed the tribulation of love, then he would die.
D*mn. It seemed as if all roads led to death?
”I...” What Xu Qu really wanted to do right now was swear a million oaths, but he held back. Swearing at this time wouldn't help. There was only one way out of this situation. He needed to make a trip specifically in order to prevent the Heaven Palace Sect from choosing a different One Chosen by Heaven.
After all, he and Xuanyuan Wanrong were completely different in terms of character, perspectives, and hobbies. There was absolutely nothing that they had in common. After every few sentences, they would start to fight. There was no way that they could pass through the tribulation of love. It was better to take the risks involved in trying to stop the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony.
”Brother Que, why don't we go to find Deity Xuanyuan. If the Heaven Palace Sect is trying to choose a new One Chosen by Heaven, she's definitely not going to just stand back and watch.” Buttface made a pretty good suggestion. He was much more confident in Xuanyuan Wanrong's strength than Xu Que's.
Xu Que immediately raised his eyebrows. It wasn't that he minded Buttface's opinion, but, instead, it was because he agreed with Buttface and he felt that Buttface was right. After all, he had become the One Chosen by Heaven because Xuanyuan Wanrong had forcefully given it to him. Now that this troubling incident concerned their safety, why should he be the only one worrying about this?
”You're right, Buttface, but we have to split into two groups. You all go to find Xuanyuan Wanrong to report what is going on, while I will go to the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony.” Xu Que quickly made a decision and started to make all the proper arrangements.
”I agree.” Buttface raised his hand immediately.
”I strongly agree.” Duan Jiude also responded enthusiastically.
Between the choices of finding a person and taking dangerous risks, the two of them naturally chose to find someone.
”Qingxuan, Hongyan, Jingning, you should also go with Buttface and Duan Jiude. I can travel alone with Guardian Mo. The less people traveling with me the easier it will be to make an escape.” Xu Que looked at Zixia Fairy and the others.
Mo Junchen suddenly trembled a bit. ”They were going to make a scene at the ceremony hosted by a group of Celestial Kings and Celestial Primes? D*mn, how terrifying!”
”Wh...what?” Xu Que was surprised by her attitude.
”The search for Xuanyuan Wanrong will be extremely complicated if too many people go.” Jiang Hongyan responded calmly, looking at Xu Que with deep emotion in her eyes.
Xu Que was confused for a moment, but he quickly recovered his senses.
She was right. If all these women went together when he wasn't present, they could make a big mess, which was really not what anyone wanted at this stage. Hongyan of course had thought all this out very carefully.
”How about this. You, Guardian Mo, and Zixia Fairy go to the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony. Jingning and I will find a place nearby and wait for you to come back.” Jiang Hongyan made a suggestion.
Her current strength was only about that of the Golden Celestial Stage, and Liu Jingning's strength was comparable to the Heaven Celestial Stage. Even if they went to the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony, they wouldn't be of much help, and could potentially become a burden.
Therefore, Jiang Hongyan had made a sensible choice to stay behind. In addition, Zixia Fairy's strength was one of profound mystery. With her and Xu Que traveling together, Jiang Hongyan felt relieved and less worried about his safety.
As for Guardian Mo, he was just assumed to be there to help.
”Okay, I agree, this sounds like it will be much safer.” Xu Que thought for a moment and nodded. He felt that there was nothing wrong with this arrangement and that it was very secure.
”I...” Mo Junchen raised his hand with a bitter smile.
”Okay, so it's settled then,” Buttface shouted loudly.
”Wait a minute...” Mo Junchen raised his hand again.
”I'll make a move with Teacher Buttface first,” Duan Jiude also shouted.
”.....” Mo Junchen's face fell. He was the Guardian of the Exploding Heavens Faction, but did anyone even care about his existence?
”Wait a minute, I have an objection,” Mo Junchen yelled loudly.
Suddenly, everyone paused and looked at Mo Junchen.
”Do I have any human rights left? You all have made arrangements for yourselves, but you've left me, who's only at the Golden Celestial Stage, to go to the Chosen by Heaven Ceremony. I feel as if I'll just be a burden. I don't like this arrangement.” Mo Junchen was extremely annoyed and felt that he wasn't being taken very seriously. This was a completely different attitude than the original story that the Xu Que, Duan Jiude, and Buttface group had had when they had duped him into joining the Exploding Heavens Faction.
”Sh*t, how can this be? Guardian Mo, you have to have more confidence in yourself.” Buttface tried to encourage him.
”Yes, Guardian Mo is very important to our Faction Leader.” Duan Jiude spoke sincerely.
”What's so good about it? I also want to go looking for people.” Mo Junchen stared unhappily at Buttface and Duan Jiude. These two pieces of trash were so shameless.
”Okay, okay, let's not fight anymore. Guardian Mo, you can go together with Buttface.” Xu Que smiled wryly. After all, Mo Junchen was right. Even if he came, he wouldn't be of much help.
”Sh*t, what about me?” At this moment, an equally dissatisfied voice could be heard.
