1557 Do You Want to Follow Me Now? (1/2)
The lights and shadows started fading gradually, until they had completely disappeared, signaling that the sealed memory had returned to Xuanyuan Wanrong's mind.
Her entire face had been drained of blood. It was scarily pale. Her hands were trembling, as she stood, stunned and glued to a spot.
”D*mn, those revolting beasts!” Duan Qide had gotten extremely furious at what the people from the Heaven Palace Sect had done, and he'd started to clamor for revenge. ”I will raid their treasure trove as a punishment.”
”Count me in,” Buttface shouted immediately.
”Go away, I'm not counting you in.” Duan Qide glared at Buttface.
”Sh*t, why won't you let me accompany you?” Buttface answered stubbornly.
The man and the Kylin stared at one another. Neither of them was going to back down.
Xu Que didn't care enough to join in, and his gaze fell on Xuanyuan Wanrong. He really studied her.
Xu Que had known Xuanyuan Wanrong at a time that was tens of thousands of years in the future. Now that they were in the world of her memory, Xu Que had still felt that this woman was even colder and more indifferent than she would turn out to be tens of thousands of years later. Even though he didn't loathe her, he had no good feelings toward her.
He'd also known that Xuanyuan Wanrong's life had been very pitiful and that, after her parents had died, their souls had been imprisoned in the back mountain area of the Heaven Palace Sect. However, he'd never actually known what had occurred.
Now that he'd witnessed this memory with his own eyes, Xu Que felt very uncomfortable and full of guilt.
Suddenly, he'd recalled that when he'd rescued the souls of Xuanyuan Wanrong's parents, he'd made a joke about her parents in front of Xuanyuan Wanrong. After all, he was accustomed to being cheeky and cheap, and it would've been strange if he hadn't acted like that.
Who could have known that because of that joke, Xuanyuan Wanrong had become sworn enemies with him. And, because of that, Xu Que had always had unpleasant feelings about Xuanyuan Wanrong.
Now, he'd understood that some jokes were really beyond the pale.
”It seems as if my joke...was really quite tasteless.” Xu Que stroked his nose awkwardly like a child who had done something wrong, and he was embarrassed to face Xuanyuan Wanrong.
Just seeing Xuanyuan Wanrong's trembling body and pale complexion, Xu Que felt extremely distressed.
After all, they had gotten to know each other, and then he had done something completely out of line. He had to apologize to her and find some way to make it up to her.
COUGH! COUGH! ”... Miss Xuanyuan...” Xu Que thought it through and coughed, looking at Xuanyuan Wanrong.
It was completely understandable that the return of this unbearable memory had caused her much shock and disbelief.
”Little fellow, our previous agreement has become invalid. This lady is so pitiful, I can't give her to you.” Duan Qide ran over and stood in front of Xu Que, his face full of disdain. Then he spit on Xu Que.
Xu Que's expression changed, and he quickly moved away, avoiding the extreme danger.
”Sh*t, Duan Qide, you're a disgusting person. There was actually poison in that spit.” Xu Que scolded him angrily.
Fortunately, the calamity-foreseeing art had warned him again. Otherwise, he would've been poisoned by the spit.
”Eh, you found that out also?” Duan Qide felt frightened again.
Poison in spit was one of his secret methods. The people who he'd spat at had almost all been killed by his sword, and those who knew this method were so few he could count them on one hand. ”How did this fellow know?”
”You can go away and leave us alone also. Do you really think that I am here to steal a woman? My goal is not the same as yours. I only came here to destroy the Heaven Palace Sect,” Xu Que said as he rolled his eyes at Duan Qide's crass nature.
”Destroy the Heaven Palace Sect? Just you alone?” Duan Qide suddenly laughed out loud..
”Ha, ha, ha!” Buttface also laughed along with him, mocking Xu Que.
PAH!
